Gossip Girl: Otherwise Engaged

This week's episode of Gossip Girl reminded me of why I first fell in love with this show: incredible fashion, scheming socialites, deviant men in suits and text messages that change everything.

For the first ten minutes of the hour I couldn't stop lusting for Serena's outfit! That v-neck, eggplant colored dress was gorgeous and I loved the sparkle from that multi-stand necklace!

90210: Senior Prom

I was looking forward to this week's episode of 90210 knowing it was the senior prom episode. Just as in real life, the event was surrounded by drama.

First, Annie attends Marla's funeral and meets Marla's daughter who gave me an uneasy vibe. There was definitely something off about her. I was also distracted by Annie's newly darken hair which looked jet black in the funeral scene.

Live: Hooligans in Wondaland Tour

Tonight I went out with one of my favorite girls for a dual celebration - her 24th birthday and my new job. We toasted over a fantastic dinner at Eastern Standard and then headed to the Agganis Arena at BU for the Hooligans in Wondaland tour.

Grey's Anatomy: Wedding Day

This week on Grey's Anatomy Callie and Arizona got married! It's hard to believe that just last episode Callie was still recovering from the accident. I know the show sped through twelve weeks over the course of last week's episode, but it still feels quick.

Grey's Anatomy: Trials

Tonight's episode of Grey's Anatomy left me . . . dissatisfied. I didn't really laugh or cry, two reactions Grey's can normally trigger for me with its best written episodes. However, I will say, Shonda set us up for some great potential plot lines.

Gossip Girl: Pretty In Pink

Hello, my Upper East Siders! Sincere apologies for leaving you recap-less last week! Have no fear, I am back in GG action!

I could waste time talking about this new Charlie girl or Reina's search for her long lost mother, but I would rather obsess over the gorgeous fashion on display at the pink party! Didn't that whole scene make you want to throw a pink party of your own? Rose colored champagne, sugary confections and one incredible dress after another!

90210: Hysteria

To my loyal 90210 recap readers, my sincere apologies for not writing about last week's spring return of our favorite teen soap! I was in Miami at my parents' house and sadly, they do not have DVR, making it impossible for me to bring you the recap in a timely manner. However, this week, I am back in action!

Listen: Adele on NPR

It's no secret that I love Adele. Her new album "21" has single handedly mended my broken heart. I was thrilled to discover that she recently participated in NPR's Tiny Desk Concert series. She performed three songs: "Someone Like You", "Chasing Pavements" and "Rolling in the Deep".
