What Matthew McConaughey Knows About Decorating

Unless you're our long, lost friend, Paige, who attends the Oscar's nearly every year with Julia Roberts (true story), there's a good chance you'd agree that most Oscar ceremonies are ceremoniously boring. 

Sorry Oscar, but outside of  playing Where's Waldo with our friend Paige, we've just never been into you. Until...last Sunday night, when this little thing happened called Matthew McConaughey won Best Actor for his role in Dallas Buyers Club.  Then? We were in. Like, all in.  We stopped pinning and posting, put down our iPads and we gawked watched. Because the only thing that can trump a perfectly good Sunday night of cruising house porn on Pinterest while Ellen's serving pizza in the background, is Matthew McConaughey in a tux. (Please don't judge, we're creative souls and we need our visual stim). ;)

We won't lie... he had us at handsome. But when he spoke? Wow. Wowwy, wow, wow. His words were drizzled in the perfect Southern drawl. And he spoke with such truth. Such wisdom. Such soul. 

And do you know what he said to us??? He said, "Listen ladies of Collected Home & Event Styling"

 "...we all need something to look up to, something to look forward to...and someone to chase."

For real. That's what he said to us. Because he knows we Collected gals are chasing our dream. He's been there. He knows it's not easy.  He knows it's all going to be worth it. He gets it.

Oh, Matthew McConaughey. We didn't think we could love you more. But we do. And that's alright, alright, alright with us.
