Peplums and Pearls: Watching the Oscars in high style at Nellcote
Did you watch the 2013 Oscars last night? Because I can’t turn down a chance to get all fancy and hobnob with my fellow bloggers, I was thrilled to participate in the Chicago Blogger Network Oscars viewing party at Nellcote. Beautiful people, great conversation, posh surroundings, a photo booth and personalized champagne bottles? Do I even need to say how awesome it was?
I went old Hollywood Glam and rocked the peplum and pearls!
The sweetheart neckline and peplum on this dress make it super flattering and ladylike…and the cutout on the back shows some more skin, but is still bra-friendly (which is essential for my larger-chested sisters!).
One of the best things about CBN events is that you are surrounded by other bloggers! I ran into some lovely people and snapped a few pictures.
Archie from The Man and a Pan surprised me by showing up…he’s a real life coworker of mine, and I had no idea he was a blogger too!
I’ve been following this gorgeous lady (and her cleavage) for months and months, but had never met her in person! Check her out on Twitter: SinnamonS!
So lovely to meet Zahra from Love Zahra in line at coatcheck and spent the rest of the night chatting it up. Here we are with the mistress of ceremonies, Jill from Jess and Jill and the Chicago Blogger Network!
It was a great night…surrounded by all the glitz and gorgeous people, I felt like we really did the Oscars right! Thanks CBN for putting on such a wonderful event!
Cute photos, looks like such a fun night! Love your dress 🙂

What a great evening of movies and fashion last night. Next time, I'll have to cook "Oscar hor d'oeuvres" for everyone.
You are gorgeous, as always. Love the neckline on the dress. XOXO!
That dress is so perfect! I would totally rock it!
I hope you realize how beautiful you are! What an inspiration 🙂
