This Arrow May have Missed its Bullseye

I can appreciate that a young Hollywood rising star like Blake Lively wanted to go for a glamorous look for her newest premiere. Her next role is in the Oliver Stone film, 'Savages'. So again, grown up film, big important director requires a special outfit. And I was going to skip right by this one until I noticed something...

THE GIANT ARROW POINTING UP TO HER CROTCH!

(Pardon my crudeness)

 And now I cannot stop staring at it. Not that this isn't more the designer of the dresses fault than Blakes, but still she wore it. So she had of noticed something she liked about it. It’s a pretty dress, if not for the fact that now I keep seeing arrows everywhere. (There are more, check it out)

Hmmm, how to save the outfit?

The shape of the dress with the mermaid tail is very pretty. And let’s face it, fits her well. But the pattern is just too distracting. If it was a solid nude or solid black color, it would have been a vast improvement. She could leave the embesselment on the chest area for a little pizzazz. And her red lipstick provides her pop of color. Worst case, cut the dress off write above the arrow, before it reaches its bullseye and rock the mini.

Blake this is a pretty dress, just a couple lines in the wrong places. So no need to BURN this dress per se, or FIRE your stylists (it’s better than some of the stuff you wear on Gossip Girl), but you are being watched. You have been WARNED!!!

Daytime Emmy's...NO LONGER Fit for Television

Apparently the networks who air soaps, talk shows, etc didn't think their Emmy Awards rated.  So it was moved to HLN, yup the news network.  Realizing the lack of importance and having other things to do, I decided to miss this one. And I don't watch Soaps anymore and yes apparently some people do.  But thanks to some trusted informants (you know who you are), I was told to check out this fantastic outfit...

Apparently Rachael Ray won a Emmy, but not for this dress.  The chest area, which would not be flattering on anyone...at all...ever, demands attention.  Don't worry, I have included a close-up.  It reminds be of those 6-pack tshirts.  Except it is about a foot in the wrong direction.  Complete with cutoff sleeves. 

Hmmm, how to save the outfit?

Throw a black garbage bag over it?  Too Rough?  The bottom half of the dress is probably okay, but with the lights and shape of the top, no one would even notice.  And the neckline all the way up, doesn't help.  It looks like a childs super hero costume.  I think she was going for sexy low cut dress.  But if your gonna go for it, go all the way.  There is way to much fabric to pull of this look.  Either use less dress, or cover up the mesh center.

To prove my point I have added a lovely picture of Jack Black in a 6-pack ab tshirt.  Similar right? 

Okay, to Rachel Ray you should BURN this dress and seriously consult your stylists.  I know you have them.  And threaten to FIRE if this happens again.  To quote the Hulk, "You Won't Like Me When I am Angry."

Back to Bitching...about BEARDS

Sorry for my lack of posting, I have been on what we working folk call a  "VACATION."  But I am back and ready to comment on fashion, celebrity style or for some people the lack-there-of.  While on vacation, I rested, read and actually watched quite a bit of sports.  And during this period, I noticed one thing that I was not too happy about.  Professional Athletes...and their ugly hairy beards.

I understand in the NHL you have beard-a-thons to raise money for charity during the Stanley Cup Playoffs.  And once the teams are knocked out, the beards get shaved.  (Thank Goodness).  I can live with that, plus the money goes to charity.  But there are certain athletes who wear beards year round.  And I assume they think it looks good?  And are becoming famous for it...

Player number 1: Brian Wilson, San Francisco Giants

Player Number 2: James Harden, Oklahoma City Thunder

Now men, I am going to go on a limb for women and say, we are not so much a fan.  I looked it up, although they are about 8-9 years apart in age, neither are married.  Could it have something to do with the beard?  Makes me wonder, what are they hiding under there? And how sanitary can it be? 

Hmmm, how to save the outfit?

S-H-A-V-E

There is no need to FIRE anyone or BURN any clothes, and burning hair smells bad.  Let me put it in a way you can understand me...How would like to look at this?

Enough said...Comments?

MTV Awards-Disappointing and Fashionably Hard to WATCH

I love Love LOVE movies and I used to really look forward to the MTV Movie Awards.  I admit, I am not an Oscar nominated film fan, generally the movies I love are more of the Razzie nominated types.  So MTV awards were always a chance to see my favorite movies win some type of award, you know like...best kiss or for example.  (Shout out to Ryan and Rachel in the Notebook.)

But this year I not only found myself disappointed with the show, but also with the fashion. I haven't seen Hunger Games, so I felt really old watching it.  And not even the movies biggest stars were present.  With the exception of a few, its lacked its usual star power.  And host Russell Brands jokes left more crickets than giggles. Him shouting "Twilight" and "Hunger Games" after every bad joke grew tiresome.  (And I am pretty sure he did that last year too.)  Relative to fashion, it would be easier to say who looked good, than who looked bad.  So without further delay, here are my picks for worst dressed:

From Left to Right: Elizabeth Banks, Julianne Hough, Brooke Hogan, Emma Watson and Russell Brand

Starting from the left, I think Elizabeth Banks is angry she wasn't cast as Catwoman in the newest Batman or maybe trying out for a Spiderman villain.  And I thought Julianne Hough's was bad, until I saw Brooke Hogans.  Are they trying out to be a female tag team in the WWE?  And Emma Watson, tennis anyone?  Looks like something I have seen the Williams sisters wear during a match.  And Russell Brand...a fur belt?  Really??

Center: Kristen Stewart

And Kristen Stewart, you walk the entire red carpet in high heels, but you win the award for best movie and you jump onstage in your Chucks?  Worn and dirty ones at that. You were sitting most of the show, your feet were that tired?

Hmmm, how to save the outfits?

I am willing to give most of them the benefit of the doubt on these outfits.  As they wanted to all seem young and hip, maybe going a bit over the top.  And then others are just strange (that would be you Russell.)  How to save?  They all had okay shoes? 

I would say most of these outfits should BURN, leave the shoes.  Kristen can throw her shoes in with the burning clothes, buy a new pair girlfriend.  And I am pretty sure Russell doesn't have a stylists, but the others should threaten theirs.  They don't need to FIRE today, but again, they should be warned.

Comments? Twilight? Hunger Games?
