VMA(F)- Very Much A Failure

By |September 13th, 2010|Red Carpet Recap, Why Did You Wear That?|

Eminem, Rihanna

Um, so first and foremost, I’m going to pose the question: When is the last time MTV actually even played a music video? Do people still make videos? Why? Seems like a whole lot of money to dump into something that has zero return rate, no? Kinda like a first wife.

Anyway, I’m not going to even bother with any type of fashion recap, cause quite honestly, it was all wretched and I don’t want to suffer through it for a second time. It’s bad enough that MTV will now continuously replay the VMA’s for a solid two an a half weeks. So, in case you missed it (and you miss it for the next 465 times they play it), here’s all you need to know:

  • Eminem is the smartest man on the planet. Demand that you open the show. Collect your money. Get the eff out of there.
  • No one felt like actually singing last night (minus Usher and Taylor Swift). Lip synching is the new black.
  • Lady Gaga is still a freak.
  • Chelsea Handler (god lover her) needed more vodka. I was almost as uncomfortable watching her as she was delivering her punchlines.
  • Taylor Swift and Kanye apparently still aren’t over it.
  • It seems hair streaks are coming back in “style.”
  • Justin Bieber is going to be a huge dickhead in two years.
  • Rihanna still looks like a muppet.
  • Speaking of muppets, Lindsay Lohan stopped by.
  • I need to watch more TV, cause I didn’t know who half the people on my screen were.
  • MTV probably needs to start playing more music videos or stop having the VMA’s. One or the other.
  • It would appear that Pharrell drives a Chevy.
  • There’s only one way to tell the difference between Justin Bieber and Hilary Swank
  • EVERYONE has a British accent.
  • Jared Leto is channeling Ellen Degeneres.
  • Taylor lost her shoes. Oops.
  • Kanye does not grasp the concept of irony.

And there you have it folks. Nothing to see here. Keep the line moving.

The List Volume XIV

By |August 6th, 2010|The List|

run

I can’t lie, I actually forgot today was Friday and time for “the list.” That’s because I’ve been living in a love filled bubble complete with furry white cats and dogs. Take a sigh of relief, I still have plenty of things to compile into this week’s list.

  1. Um, Lindsay Lohan’s “jail sentence.” She’s like my dog. Never gets in trouble. Sigh.
  2. Life in a Bikini. WTF is this? I see billboards for it everywhere. At first glance I liked the name of it, cause you know how I feel about bikinis, but upon further investigation, it sounds like a bowl of crock. IMG00317-20100729-1953
  3. Malls.
  4. Kitten heels. And just ugly heels in general. Five inches or bust, ladies.
  5. Sun umbrellas. Sumbrellas. I believe they were parasols at some point in time. IMG00027-20100625-1118
  6. People who can’t take a hint. What must I do to make things clear?
  7. Leggings in disguise. While, having a built in crotch cover is clever… you’re still not fooling anyone. IMG00064-20100702-1301
  8. The Jersey Shore. I can’t believe we are paying these people’s salaries.
  9. Fish oil burps.
  10. The Real Housewives of DC. Might be the worst cast yet!!

See, even when WhyDid’s wearing her rose colored glasses, she still sees the ugly and annoying.

Why Did You Wear That: Don’t Fret, My Pets.

By |April 23rd, 2009|Celebrity Style, Why Did You Wear That?|

Oh, my loves. I didn’t forget about you yesterday. However, I apparently booked a one way ticket to Planet Suck and had no time to post any of my witty and brilliant banter for you to read while pretending to be productive at work.  No worries, I worked it out with my travel agent and am back to the real world.

Anyhow, because you may have felt neglected yesterday, here is a little mindless fodder for you.

Here’s a photo of Lindsay Lohan launching her legging line (6126) at Henri Bendel earlier this year.  Her hair looks like a throwback to Splash while her “leggings” look like she ran into Edward Scissor Hands on her way to the event.  Fun fact: did you know that Lindsay’s legging line has a pair called “Mr. President” with quilted knee pads? Classy. (more…)

Why Did You Wear That: Leggings!

By |November 30th, 2008|Why Did You Wear That?|

Now it’s time to discuss one of my favorite topics… leggings. Leggings are the new sweatpants, the new Juicy tracksuit. (Thank god).  Anyway, while leggings are a much more chic way to stay comfortable, it has come to my attention that many people abuse the right to wear leggings. Below I will walk you through some of the Do’s and Don’ts of leggings:

  • Leggings are NOT pants. If they don’t have pockets and they don’t have a fly, they are not pants. Please cover your hoo-ha when wearing leggings.
  • White leggings will never fly unless you are a ballerina or dressed in costume and even then, this is treacherous territory.
  • Please stop wearing leggings with open toe pumps. All this makes me think of is the Meatpacking District on a Saturday night.
  • Black is always best. Avoid bright colors unless you are 5’10, 110lbs.
  • Just because Lindsay says it’s cool, doesn’t always mean it is.http://www.lohangroupie.com/6126-leggings-by-lindsay-lohan-now-available/
  • Lastly, and most importantly, let’s face it… not every trend is meant for every person. Be honest with yourself, if it doesn’t look good, skip it.
Shirt is too short. Would be a cute look with the sneakers if she covered her snatch.
No. No, no, no!
This is an appropriate length for a top worn with leggings. I prefer a boot, but flats work as well.
Now go put some pants on.
