OOTD: Velcro Revival

Ya know that moment your hubby/boyfriend/boo/whatever calls ya and is like "Hey babe, I'll pick ya up in 15 minutes for lunch" and you're still laying around in your bathrobe? Yeah... well welcome to my day. :) Let the mad rush commence.

Usually my makeup alone takes about 30 minutes so let's just say I had to improvise a bit today. [Scroll down to the bottom for makeup look of the day]

Leggings [CottonOn], button down [H&M] and a scarf [Nordstrom Rack] were the first things I could grab.


Obviously, given my time crunch, there was no way on EARTH I was about to attempt to make sense of my hair - so I pulled a Kate Beckinsale and threw it up into a pony.


These VELCRO wedge sneakers are my latest OBSESSION and I can not tell you how comfortable they are!  This is the closest thing to an athletic shoe that you will ever see on my feet! :) They're made by Steve Madden and were only $59 at Nordstrom Rack.  #Score

John & Katy | Who You Love | PREMIERE

It's here! The long awaited debut music video for John Mayer and Katy Perry's adorable duet: Who You Love!

The video premiered live on GMA this morning and watching them watch it is too cute to handle!


Ya know, I wasn't a huge fan of these two as a couple to begin with... but they're kinda growing on me.


Maybe I'm just happy that John Mayer seems to have settled down a bit - after going through a series of Hollywood starlets in what seemed like record time.  Either way - they seem to be happy and in love!

Do you think wedding bells are in the near future for these two?  Tweet me @SharonWilbur and let me know what you think!

Rembering Peter O'Toole & Paul Walker

R.I.P. Peter O'Toole

It's been a sad couple of weeks for movie lovers.  First with the loss of Paul Walker, and now the legendary actor Peter O'Toole.  Today's Morning Dish takes a look back at Peter's life plus how you can give back [and help others] following the death of Paul Walker.

Inspired

Life as a TV host/reporter is not always as glamorous as it seems. :) Don't get me wrong... I am SO BLESSED and absolutely LOVE what I do, BUTTTTT things can be super busy, have crazy hours, and literally keep you up all night long.  However, it's days like this that make everything SO worth it!
 

Yesterday I had the opportunity to meet a 17 year old girl named Andrin Espana who is nothing short of inspiring.


Watch the video below for her story, and scroll down for more on how you can get involved and save a life just like hers.


What a courageous girl she is.  Andrin has been through so much at such a young age and it seems to have only made her stronger.  Even though she had to leave promptly after this interview to undergo her last round of Chemotherapy treatment, she could not have been happier to spend the morning raising awareness about the importance of all that the Blood Alliance does here in NE Florida.

For more on Andrin's story, visit the

TEAM ANDRIN Facebook Page

It's really incredible that just 1 pint of blood can save up to 3 lives!  The Blood Alliance is the only provider of blood to ALL hospitals in the region so it's all the more imperative that those who are able to donate - do so!

There is no better gift - especially during the holiday season - than giving through the Blood Alliance.  You are literally giving the gift of life to someone in need. For more information on where you can go to donate, visit www.igiveblood.com.

Hola Costa Rica!

Happy FRIDAY!  Or should I say FRI-YAY! :)  Today I head to the beautiful country of Costa Rica for the first time!

 I'll be joining my father in law Paul Wilbur for a concert in the capital city of San Jose.
Just looking at these pictures gets me excited!

As you may or may not know, music has always been - and remains to be - a huge part of my life.  2 years ago I released my first Spanish EP, and the fact that I'm able to now bring this Spanish music to a Spanish speaking country is not only an honor, but is so exciting for me.


I will definitely be taking tons of pictures and video so I'll have some sort of recap coming your way after my trip - but until then, my blog may be just a tad quiet.  :)  Love y'all and have a great weekend!  Follow me on Instagram: @ShaeWilbur & Twitter: @SharonWilbur to keep up w/ me while I'm on the road!

Catching up w/ Angie Miller

If you watched season 12 of American Idol, then you MUST recognize this face.

Angie Miller made it all the way to the final 3 before getting eliminated. Needless to say I was shocked when she got sent home, and STILL think she should have won it all last season.

This girl is one of the most talented people to come out of the Idol machine and I was absolutely looking forward to the opportunity to catch up with her.


If you haven't purchased Angie Miller's single "This Christmas Song" - then head on over to itunes to check it out! [Scroll down to see *official* lyric video]

Paul Walker Update [VIDEO from the scene]

 New details continue to emerge every day regarding what happened on Saturday afternoon when Roger Rodas and Paul Walker decided to take a 2005 Porsche Carrera GT for a drive. Today in my Morning Dish - footage from the tragic moment of impact and more...


As mentioned in my Morning Dish above - Paul's latest film HOURS will be released as planned on December 13th. The movie tells the story of a father struggling to keep his infant daughter alive in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. By the looks of this trailer, I think we can expect to see Paul Walker at his best. [RIP]

[RIP] Paul Walker

I don't know about you, but I'm still in shock and completely saddened by the death of Paul Walker and his friend Roger Rodas.

Paul Walker & Roger Rodas

It's always shocking when someone dies so suddenly.... and the more I find out about what happened on Saturday, the more tragic it seems.

One thing is for sure, Paul [& Roger] died doing what they loved. If there's any positive note to take away here, that's it.

According to new reports, authorities believe that the Porsche he was riding in could have been going upwards of 100mph just seconds before it crashed.  Here are some of the startling photos from the scene... it's hard to believe this is all that's left of the car:




This is the last known picture we have of Paul alive... just moments before he got into Roger's Porsche.

Now, the question everyone is asking is what will come of Fast & the Furious franchise?   They were in the middle of filming the 7th installment and Paul was actually scheduled to head back to Atlanta this week to continue filming.  I can't imagine the movies without him... I'm sure at this moment producers are seriously considering what their next steps will be. 

It's just such a loss.  My prayers are with his family and loved ones, as I can't imagine the heartache that they're experiencing right now.
