Why Did You Wear That: Sucker Punched

By |March 25th, 2011|Celebrity Style|

I understand that fashion draws inspiration from everything around it, but when I saw the outfit donned by Jena Malone for the Suckerpunch premiere, I felt that this “inspiration” was more like “imitation.”  Please see below:

A). This proves I paid attention in art history,but more importantly it proves my point.  Jena Malone wants you to suckerpunch her clam… wait. No.  Jena wants to jam out with her clam out.  Ugh.  Jena’s a pearl… ?  What was my point?

Thoughts on Jena’s Botticelli-esque attire?

Girl Crush: Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?

By |March 23rd, 2011|Celebrity Style, Why Did You Wear That?|

My what big eyes you have… I’ve loved Amanda Seyfried since she played the dopey Karen Smith in Mean Girls alongside Lady Lohan, herself.  So what a perfect choice she was for the storybook turned mega movie, Red Riding Hood, released earlier this month.  With classic fairytale features, they couldn’t have cast a better beauty for little Ms. Hood.

It doesn’t take much for Amanda to look lovely.  With gigantic green eyes, perfectly porcelain skin, and hair that dreams were made of, it would really be hard for this stunning starlet to look bad.  Her red carpet style is simple, understated, and very sexy.  She knows her legs are her best feature and she isn’t afraid to show them off (smart girl).  During her downtime, Ms. Seyfried can be spotted around town with dog, Finn and her signature sunglasses.  Her style is always effortlessly chic.

1. American Apparel The Wool Cape, $170, 2. Ray-Ban XL Wayfarer, $145, 3. DOMA Detachable Hood Leather Jacket, $598, 4. Brian Atwood Lana Patent Peep Toe Pumps, $525, 5. Frederic Fekkai Brilliant Glossing Cream, $32, 6. Banana Republic Coy Combat Boot, $119.99, 7. Ralph Lauren Collection Ruffle Washed Linen Dress, $1,498, 8. Lanvin Plisse Dress, $1,975, 9. Benefit Dandelion, $28

…The better to see you with, my dear.

Would You Wednesday: Are We Doing This, Ladies?

By |March 4th, 2011|Celebrity Style, Why Did or Why Don't?|

Okay, so I pride myself on being pretty good at spotting trends–and folks, I think I’ve found one.  Seems to me like the return of the belly shirt is happening once again.

Camilla Belle showed up to the premiere of From Prada To Nada with her belly bare in Jason Wu and I figured it was just a one off.  However, not one, but two mega watt music divas have shown off their taught tummies this week in belly baring tops.  Rihanna sported one in Sydney and Jennifer Lopez exposed herself in LA (homegirl looks fan-freaking-tastic for 41, no?).

So this is my question: Are we doing this?  Will we go ahead and hop on this trend train?  I’m cool with it.  I like crop tops and I mean, my stomach is probably one of my favorite body parts, but just give me heads up so I lay off the Sour Patch Kids and up the crunches.

All aboard!

Girl Crush: Full of Glee

By |February 24th, 2011|Celebrity Style, Why Did You Wear That?|

I can not lie, I don’t watch Glee.  However, one young lady keeps showing up on red carpets and catching my attention: Dianna Agron.  Apparently she plays Quinn, a perky and somewhat promiscuous cheerleader and glee club member (again, I don’t follow the show).  With her all American good looks, Agron fits the part of cheerleading queen bee perfectly.  While she pulls off the fresh faced bouncing ponytail look with ease, what really impresses me is the way she transforms herself from pink cheeks and shiny pout to smoky eye and sexy updo.

Agron has managed to merge pretty with edgy.  She pairs classic Chanel couture with smudgy cat eyes and rocker hair.  While she isn’t going to go down in history as a style icon, she is the absolute perfect mix of sugar and spice.

Want to put a little pep in your step?  Try a few of these Agron inspired pieces.  Add her favorite Chanel lipstick and polish to take even your sweetest ensemble to the next level and always be sure to have that good girl glow with Benetint’s Posietint.

Top (L to R): Rebecca Minkoff Rumi Dress, $425, Chanel le vernis Nail Color, $25, Christian Louboutin Rolando Patent Leather Platform Pumps, $695,  Volcom Time Lines Striped Tank Dress, $38, Bottom (L to R): Chanel Rouge Allure Luminous Satin Lip Color, $35, American Apparel Plaid Chiffon Double Layered Shirred Waist Skirt, $42, Nanette Lepore Latin Lover Dress, $348, Benefit Posietint, $28

Cheerio!

Why Did You Wear That: Keep Bleeding

By |February 11th, 2011|Celebrity Style|

No, you’re not still drunk from last night’s happy hour and seeing triple.  This is really Leona Lewis wearing basically the same outfit three times in one week.  Listen, I’m a big fan of “Love it? Buy it in every color!” but this is taking it a bit too far.

When I checked into who was designing these Disney’esque looking creations for Leona I was surprised that Leona, herself, had made them.  Seems to me like Ms. Lewis should put down here needle and thread and just continue singing.  When will musicians and actors simply stick to doing what they are good at instead of bombarding us with shoes, perfumes, and nail polish? Didn’t you get enough of my money from ticket sales?
