Look! Hugh Jackman!


If you follow me on twitter (@shabbyprincess) you know that I'M GOING TO SEE HUGH JACKMAN ON BROADWAY! Yes, that deserved to be all shouty. I can't get over it. I honestly might die--I'm not joking.

I'm crazy stupid excited. Le bestie and I are going to NYC to celebrate our birthdays (me November, her January, so, we're going in December) and see our two favorite singing men.

Hugh and Harry. Duh.


So, in honor of our NYC Birthday Extravaganza (official title), I went shopping. (is anyone surprised?)

This is my "I don't need a job, I don't need a baby, I'm going to see Hugh Jackman!" dress.


Obviously, he'll see me and want to run off with me, yes?

Now, most important question--black, gold, or leopard print heels?! Related: It'll be December in New York, am planning to wear tights with the seam on the back--very Mad Men. Now, shoes, decide! (I only ask because y'all were so helpful on the hair debate--dark it is!)

Oh. And this, this is my Phantom of the Opera dress. I have a mad crush on the guy who plays The Phantom--loved him since he was Marius in Les Mis. Also, his name is Hugh. Sense a theme?
Can we discuss the back on this thing??!?! Good thing I did some push ups this morning, lawdy.
I've already warned Sara that I will be camping us outside the stage door in the freezing cold in attempts to see the leading men--obviously, I must look killer. It's gonna be so cold. So, so, cold....WORTH IT.

After dresses and tickets were purchased, I spent the weekend prepping--even though we aren't going until December. (reality: I was home alone and bored)

Which included painting my nails sparkly pink (why yes, I am 12).
And honing my spoon singing skills while I made dinner. Related: I have no shame.
What'd you do this weekend? Any fun holiday plans?

Ahhhh!!!! I cannot wait for our NYC adventure! You are going to be so smoking hot in those GORGEOUS dresses that Hugh will never be able to resist. I say, bring all 3 pairs of heels and we'll decide when we're there. Now I gotta find something (anything) that will fit me and catch Harry's eye. Might have to rent that sparkle dress again.

Jessica said...

Both dresses are GORGEOUS and I'm totes jealous you are going to see them on Broadway and think you need the saucy leopard print heels because yes, Hugh will want to ravage you in that dress. DUH. <3

Heather @ Simple Wives said...

Oh wow!! Both of those dresses are just gorgeous! I'd go for black heels.

OK, that's it. Between the Harry and the Hugh and the pony AND the shoes, I'm officially now on jealousy overload and therefore refuse to vote for the right heels (though I wasn't in such a state, I'd say leopard).
