Cannes Film Festival: Zoe Saldana in Armani Prive

Posted: 18 May 2011 04:56 AM PDT

My it girl strikes again! Zoe is ravishing in her red and white Armani Prive gown at the 64th Annual Cannes Film Festival ”The Tree Of Life” Premiere. Striking all the right cords her gown featured a bubble waist that cascades to the floor in peppermint candy sort of way.

With her hair straightened by her side and minimal make up, her gold bow bracelet was the only other necessary jewelry. I would have preferred to see her in sandals but I won’t take away points for this minor discretion.

How do you feel about Zoe gown? Hot like a chili pepper or cold like a pepper mint patty??

The Ruck Sack by Empress-TQ featuring a brown backpack

Monday morning I felt like I was back in high school, as I got ready for my first day of…well sort of. I’m gearing up for September at and had to go write one of those skills assessment tests. Dreading every minute of it because I know there’s going to be some math on there and god knows I’m no mathematician. I was however excited to be surrounded by college lifestyle again. There’s no other place you can find such an array of different styles, tastes and diversity of people.

As I packed my purse with all my daily essentials like lip gloss, which I can’t go a day without, a snack..I hate get stranded without food..and all the other pieces of my get fixed quick aresenel it dawned on me that I soon won’t be able to strut around with my purse!

Schools going to mean a laptop and books, and books equal a book bag...right? There are other options; messenger bags, tote bags, the older ladies love the backpacks on wheels. But nothing says higher learning like the ruck sack.

I had my very own back in elementary school, looking through these is very nostalgic for me, it reminds me of being young and care free…
