Weekend Playlist: The Anti-Valentine

By Kirsten|February 4th, 2012|Weekend Playlist|

So, let’s say you’re not into the love fest that is Valentine’s Day. Nothing wrong with that (and you are not alone, my friend). Some of my most fun Valentine’s Days were not spent lamenting love, but cutting loose with friends instead. Whether that included cupcakes and sappy rom-com’s at home or dancing on tables at Cipriani, a playlist was needed. I found it much easier than expected to compile a list of songs that will have love as the furthest thing from your mind.

Would You Wednesday: We Be Baldin’

By Kirsten|January 25th, 2012|Why Did or Why Don't?|

Recently, Cynthia Nixon (uh… Miranda on Sex and the City) revealed her newly shorn head. She’s always sported a pretty short red ‘do (did you know she’s really a natural blonde?), but this new cut is not just short, it’s GONE. Luckily, it’s not cause she went all Britney Spears on us. She lost her locks for her current role in the Broadway play, Wit, where she plays a professor undergoing experimental cancer treatment. Luckily, Cynthia happens to have a perfectly shaped head and the peachy smooth skin that can pull off this look.

She is not, however, the first leading lady to take it all off up top for a role. No, not like the casting couch… Demi Moore, Natalie Portman, and Cate Blanchett are just a few of Hollywood’s beauties who have also gone bald (voluntarily). Again, these women all happen to have the ideal domes to go without their hair. I don’t know that I would be willing to give up my tresses just to play a part, but that probably has to do with my fear of an odd shaped head lying beneath my fine follicles. Let’s just say not everyone has the ideal “bone structure” to go without. So would you lose your locks for a big role?

Monday Mashup: All That Glitters…

By Kirsten|November 21st, 2011|Monday Mashup, Red Carpet Recap, Why Did You Wear That?|

Hey Nicki? Johnny 5 called… he wants his look back. I should have figured the opening performance would set the tone for this year’s American Music Awards. The tone being one big hot shiny mess. I should have changed the channel… I should have looked away, but alas, I could not. I’ve had about enough of Nicki’s wacky get ups. I’m on team Johnny 5. What about you?

The AMA’s weren’t all bad though. Here are five lovely ladies sporting what was most certainly the trend of the evening- metallics. Sadly, this is about where the “good” ends and the eye gouging begins.

Watching the AMA’s only confirmed the fact that I might need to relocate to a tropical island– or at least place where it takes a lot more talent and several fewer sparkly bra tops to get ahead.

Exhibits A, B, and B 1/2. It pains me to see Christina Aguilera look like… well, that. What happened to that little Genie in a Bottle of yore? It also pains me to see the mother of two wearing a sequin covered costume that may or may not have belonged to Britney Spears circa 1999. Those jewel encrusted bra cups have got to be a breast feeding safety hazard. Am I right? Let’s not even get into the incestuousness of Pitbull’s pelvic grinding performance with J. Lo followed up by another performance with her ex-hubby Marc Anthony and sequin braziered fly girls. Ew. And as for Adam Lambert, well, I really just wanted to throw him in so I could coin his new nickname, “Glambert.” You’re welcome.

Let’s get it together, America. We’re better than this. All that glitters is not gold.

P.S. Ending the show with Hasselhoff in his manties? Classy touch.

Monday Mashup: Warm Nuts?

By Kirsten|October 10th, 2011|Monday Mashup|

One of my very favorite new TV shows (and probably soon to be one of this year’s most popular Halloween costumes) is PanAm. What’s not to like? Beautiful girls, handsome pilots, international intrigue… I swear, I will lose my mind if it suffers the same fate as Playboy Club and gets canceled. I can not bear to watch anymore poorly scripted reality TV. Anyway, these lovely ladies in blue are sure to inspire many to dress up this October 31 and probably even inspire some to submit their resumes to become “waitresses of the sky.” And apparently, it has already inspired two of pop music’s most famous females.

Whether intentionally or not, both Lady Gaga and Britney Spears have both donned blue flight attendant-esque attire. So, my question is this: Who would make a better flight attendant (is that the politically correct term? I can’t keep up).

Why Did You Wear That: Denim on Denim Crime

By Kirsten|February 23rd, 2011|Why Did or Why Don't?|

Another trend that was once a fashion faux pas is double denim. While you are probably rolling your eyes and ready to click that cute little “x,” hear me out. Kate Bosworth can clearly do no wrong and here she is as a shining example of how denim on denim can look totally chic. Britney and JT, on the other hand, are exemplifying that it is possible to have too much of a good thing.

The trick when wearing “denim times two” is to make certain that the pieces are distinctly different shades. Also, the silhouettes should also be contrasting proportions. Don’t wear boyfriend jeans with a blousey shirt or vice versa (jeggings and a denim tube top). If you’re going to attempt this somewhat controversial trend, try a dark skinny pant with a loose chambray button down just like Kate.

don’t break my heart…
