I just had the most FABULOUS Saturday EVER, getting up close and personal with some of Hollywood’s finest at the Film Independent Spirit Awards on Oscar weekend in Los Angeles and taking in all their trendy “blue carpet” style. Wanna see? 🙂

#Spirit AWARDS Celebrity & Style Spotting!

Look! It’s Josh Radnor, who plays Theodore Evelyn “Ted” Mosby on my absolutely favourite show How I Met Your Mother! I literally ran into him as I was rushing around and when I looked up and saw who it was, I was like, “Omigosh, its Ted!” *LOL*

Of course THIS lady needs no introduction (especially since she bagged a Spirit Award as well as an Oscar this weekend!) The inimitable Cate Blanchett. (PS. The guy in the photo with her was a “fan man” who managed to intercept ALL his favourite celebrities and snag a selfie, look at you Mr. Slick!)

She wasn’t the only Oscar winner in the house, however. Matthew McConaughey breezed in wearing a brown suit and blue shoes shortly after!

I somehow managed to stall Jon Hamm (aka Don Draper) long enough for a photo opp and he graciously obliged. He did express concern though that he would now have to stop and do 400 more of these! Goes with the territory eh Mr. Draper? 🙂

It might be the shade of magenta that did it for me, but I thought this look was super cute with those white brogues!

And how can you not love a dress that looks like ice candy on a rainy day? Well done Bonnie Sturdivant (the star of Mud.)

Speaking of candy, who doesn’t love an m&m and gummy bear bar?!

I totally loved all three of Julie Delpy‘s films, Before Sunset, Before Sunrise and Before Midnight so it was great to see her in person all smiling and sweet. In fact this was my favourite line from the first film: “You can never replace anyone because everyone is made up of such beautiful specific details.” True that.

Lucky Shailene Woodley stars in The Secret Life of the American Teenager and alongside George Clooney in the critically acclaimed The Descendants.

For some reason it was a wintery weekend in LA with lots of rain so everyone was rocking their furry friends 🙂

Best Supporting Actress winner – at both the Spirit Awards and the Oscars – Lupita Nyong’o had the best birthday weekend ever basically winning both her nominations! She also gave props to her mom for being so supportive of her dreams, awww! (That’s her mom behind her in the green dress btw.)

Keanu Reeves breezed in (no pun intended – you know his name means “cool breeze over the mountains” right?! *lol*) sporting this older bearded look. I love Keanu (or at least I used to) but this look is not working for me.

SNL comic Andy Samberg looked uber preppy cute in his v neck and glasses…

Funnily enough this is also a true story and I have proof! (I admit I tried to find his name card later to take home as a souvenir but it appears someone beat me to it!)
