Why Did You Wear That: White for Your Right To Party

By |April 26th, 2011|Celebrity Style, Personal Style, Why Did You Wear That?|

If you’d described this outfit to me without seeing it, I probably would have thought you’d been hitting up ye olde crackpipe again and would have had to stage an intervention.  However, when I saw Cameron Diaz sporting her light white ensemble a couple of weeks ago, I thought she looked incredibly chic, not like a drug induced fashion victim.

I know what you’re thinking: All white?  Isn’t that a nod to the Michelin Man? In most cases, I’d say, “Yes.”  In this instance, it comes off more angelic modern than just moronic.

The best part?  These pieces are things that you most likely already have in your closet.  I had everything minus the U-Boat watch which I borrowed stole from my fiance.  Remember to break up the white with your accessories otherwise you’ll be walking around like a baker or tampon (whichever).  I went ahead and nixed Cam’s suspenders (let’s not be completely ridiculous) and added a Mr. T gold chain instead.

1. American Apparel Unisex Sheer Jersey Short Sleeve Deep V-Neck, $24, 2. Stella & Jamie Black Leather Bomber, $352.99, 3. Toy Watch Oversize Plasteramic Watch, $225, 4. Seven For All Mankind Roxanne Skinny Flood in Clean White, $159, 5. Brian Atwood Closed Toe Platform Pump, $580, 6. Balenciaga Velo, $1,445

You gotta fight!

The List Volume XVIII

Oh yes, it is, yet again, that time. In honor of the fashionistas version of Christmas (aka Fashion Night Out), this list is going to be strictly fashion and beauty related. Brace yourselves:

  1. Mandoras. (Fedora + a man wearing it = mandora). Didn’t we go through this once already with JT? I blame you, Kutcher. First the trucker hat, now this?
  2. Long toenails. I’m actually currently an offender. My Minx stayed on so long that it’s time for a trim. Ew. I hate myself.
  3. Men wearing a lot of jewelry. Mr. T was from the 80’s and even then it wasn’t cool.
  4. Dirty shoelaces. 99 cents and you’ve got a new pair!
  5. Open toe booties STILL make no sense.
  6. Backward sunglass wearers. You know who I’m talking about. Having “eyes in the back of your head” is merely a saying.
  7. Adult braces. One word: Invisalign.
  8. Cuffed jeans. Never okay. Ever.
  9. People who attend “fashion week” and are not one of the following: model, designer, editor, buyer, photographer, journalist, stylist, makeup artist, hairstylist, PR, famous. Why not just stay in town for the VMA’s?
  10. You are NOT a model.

Happy Fashion Week!
