Fashion Police

The 82nd Academy Awards did not disappoint. First time in years I remember laughing out loud at the hosts, and most everyone I wanted to win did. And now for the most important part of the night: Fashion.


Fashion at the Oscars was kinda EH for me this year. Here's why:

Sigh. SJP the only thing you have going for you is that you're a Yankees fan. Other than that...NO!

Sigh. K-Stew in this dress was the highlight for me. That?! Is sad for the Oscars. I feel dirty saying that.

Oh, Charlize. You're gorgeous, but Rose Boobs are never, ever in style. I dont care what anyone tells you.

From the Chiquita Banana Oscar Collection

Jenny, Jenny, Jenny. This dress is bubble wrap with even more bubble wrap growing out of your hip. Not pretty.

Oh, Vera. Looking like a bunch of pink ruffle chips is not glamorous.

I kinda like this. I know it looks like an airbrush t-shirt or a capri sun pouch, but eh. I like it.

Meh. I would've been OK on this had the dress come down all the way. And maybe not so many ruffles. Not into that.

I dont like Cameron Diaz. There, I said it. But this dress is pretty. Her hair though? Not so much. Less beauty pagent-y next time Cammy.

I love her. Kinda iffy on her dress. Maybe if it was a different color? Maybe one solid color & not a water color painting type thing.

This...just...ugh. Next time Diane, next time.


Not a big fan of slits up to there at the Oscars. And not a fan of the flesh-y pink color either. It makes her look older. Next time Jessica, take a cue from Bella.

First thoughts on this dress: OMG Sparkles! OMG Purple! OMG WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?

Penelope in strapless & fish tail/train. Sigh. Get a new look honey, please.

Love you Sandy. The hair not so much, but you won, so all that doesn't matter at all.

Miley, Miley, Miley. 1.) What the hell are you doing at the Oscars? 2.) Please start dressing your age. You're like 16/17? Stop acting whorey. Sigh. I love the bottom of the dress though.

Mariah. It's the Oscar's. At least have some class please? Love the color though. What the hell happened to you Nick Cannon?

George & his GF of the moment. He needs a hair cut, but is fantastic either way. Not impressed with her dress. But she has Dr. Ross, so that's a F U to everyone else.

Again, another bubble wrap dress. Sigh. Why people? WHY??!?!?!

Oh Kate. You're usually so beautiful atthese award shows. This? Not so much. Sigh you.

Faith, honey. This is the Oscars, not the Grammy's. Put your leg away.

Hey, how did he get in here?

Mission Puma 2010

Oh Texas, you have lived up to my expectations so far. Not that you really had much to live up to anyway. Today was the day that I went with my brother, sister-in-law, niece (and a bunch of their friends) drove down to San Antonio. So let's get down to why I really wanted to go to San Antonio: Joshua Patrick.

Due to my awesome PI skills, I found out where he lived. (I mean, that's completely normal right?) So after Mark flat out refused to go (chicken) Amber & I were on our way. We go down the road and stop in front of his house. We had this plan that if asked, we were lost or talking on a cell phone or something like that. After like 20 minutes of sitting there freaking out, and ducking whenever a car went by, a truck pulls out of garage & out of the driveway. This is where I really start freaking out, and try to calm down (this is also where Amber started freaking too.) The driver looked like Joshua Patrick, but I'm pretty sure the driver could've been a woman & I would've thought it was him. I only saw about 3 seconds of him though because Amber freaked out and goes "Get down!" and pushed my head down. Then she turns around & starts to follow the truck.

So now we're trying to be all sneaky & not get caught or get the cops called on us. And we follow this truck for about 15 minutes around San Antonio, until about 3 cop cars drove past us. That kinda freaked us out, and we decided to come back home. All the while freaking out & laughing so hard we were crying.

I'm just hiding out now, waiting for the cops to come get me & Amber soon. Mission Puma 2010 wasn't that great of a success, but hey at least I have a story this summer when my GWD girls & I actually put our plan into action.

How Can You Date A Red Sox Fan?

It's a question I get often, because I'm a Yankees fan. Not only is my lovely boyfriend a Red Sox fan, he's from Boston, and a Boston sports fan in general.

When I first met him, it was just before the first Yankees-Red Sox game, and we were busting on each other the whole night. Surviving that first series was kinda hard, but he was nothing but nice about beating my team. Well as nice as he could be, being a Sox fan and all ;).

It wasn't really hard after that series. Even with the Yankees going 0-8 against the Sox, we still had fun with it. We're obviously both very passionate about out teams, and we have had some fights about them, but it doesn't consume the relationship. We always know how far to take things with each other, and when to back off. It's just fun to pick on each other every now and then. Our passion for sports is one (of many) that brings us together.

Trust me, he gets on my nerves with his Boston cockiness, but I still love him no matter what at the end of day. Were there times in the beginning where I wanted to punch him? Yes, of course. Were there times where I wanted to take every little thing had had with Sox on it and burn it? Hell yes. I got over it though. Started somewhere around the time my team started winning.

As much as sports rule our lives, we never let that get in the way. I think that bodes well for us in the long run. No matter what happens between all the teams we root for. I still love my Loves (Boston accent and all.)

First Post. Yay!

So I figured I'd start this blog out by introducing myself to those who dont really know who I am. My name is Alexandra. Everyone calls me Alexa, or Lex, or Lexy or Lexa. I'll answer to any of them. I work for my mom's law firm as an executive assisstant. Which basically means I'm the head secretary lol. I also work for the local sports teams during their seasons.

I'm a die hard sports fan. I live & breathe with the New York Yankees, Philadelphia Eagles & New York Knicks. Baseball is first in my heart, then football & basketball.

I live in upstate New York. I would tell you guys where, but you'd probably forget 2 minutes from now lol.

I live with my best guy friend, Nardo. My boyfriend Nick, is from Boston, and a Boston sports fan. Which makes my
life with sports so much more interesting. Whole Yankees/Red Sox rivalry, you know lol. And I have an obsession with Josh Beckett. Yeah I know. I blame Nick though. Its all his fault.

My friends are the best ever. The ones that have stuck by me anyway. They're crazy, and get me into trouble most of the time, and we've known each other since we were five.

I love music, and tv shows, and movies. I'm a huge entertainment nerd. I love celebrity gossip.

This blog will be mostly about my life, and sports, and other random things I can come up with to write about. I was pretty sure at one point that my life would make a good reality show. I think it still would.

And one last thing. The whole Carl's Sister thing. My last name is Pavano. No I'm not related to Carl Pavano (although if I am, my family has kept that secret to themselves.) Nardo started calling me Carl's sister after Pavano signed with the Yankees. It's stuck around ever since then. It's just a fun nickname, and I honestly love it. As much as I hate him for saying it, and announcing to everyone in Yankee Stadium that "Carl's sister is here!" I've
learned to love it.

So, since I think I covered everything, that's it for now. Anything else you wanna know? Just ask.
