Throwback Thursday-MTV Movie Awards 2001

So with my post this week in regards to the MTV Movie Awards, it made me realize how much I used to love them.  When I was the one buying tickets to watch all the movies that were the main focus of the show. My favorite actors and actresses were all over the place. Unlike then, now I have to force myself to try and stay relevant by watching these Hunger Games movies, which if I am honest, still stuck on chapter 5 of Book 1.  Since 2010.  So I decided to pick the year 2001, the year I graduated college...when my weekends were filled with teeny-bopper music and movies.  And man, did it bring back some memories...some good...some not so good.

The Bare Mid-Drift:

Left to Right: Cameron Diaz, Julia Stiles, Shannon Elizabeth and Alyson Hannigan

I am not sorry this fad went away.  I remember all my t-shirts all fell short of my pants or skirt.  And it was okay.  You didn't call a baby tee and baby tee...it was just a shirt.  This fad made my legs look even longer than they already are.  And when in your early twenties, not always a good thing.

Anna Faris was just breaking onto the scene, as a brunette:

And Christina was well...Dirty?:

Her outfit may have been horrendous, but you gotta admit that tune is still pretty catchy.  And she performed on stage that night singing 'Lady Marmalade with Mya, Lil Kim and Pink...whose hair was bright pink at the time.


However there were a sad few things I remembered while searching Google images.  That was the year 'The Fast and Furious' came out.  We hardly knew Vin Diesel and Paul Walker was just the hot blond guy from 'Varsity Blues' and 'She's All That'.  And here it is 14 years later, #1 movie in the country for the 7th movie in the series.  But the saddest thing was Aaliyah walked the red carpet for 'Romeo Must Die.'  And if memory serves me correctly, she wasn't alive much longer after this awards show. I am pretty sure she would of been a huge huge star, has she not died in the plane crash.

This was a fun little trip down memory lane.  All these people in this post were some huge at that time.  Some are still around..some not so much.  Mya? Shannon Elizabeth?  Anna Faris's brown hair?   Haha...anyways want me to critique fashion from another time, event, era...let me know!

All Suited up for the MTV Movie Awards

There is nothing wrong with this picture, in fact, I am posting it 100% for the adorableness factor.  Mark Ruffalo and his daughter Bella, is matching suits for the MTV Movie Awards.

Love it!  Only thing I might change...matching Converse.  I mean, if you are going to match pocket squares, might as well go all in...

MTV Movie Awards 2015....Snoozefest for Mr Teen Wolf

Boring Tyler Posey

I generally post about female celebrities on this, as lets face it, guys have it way easier in terms of fashion.  I didn't watch the MTV Awards that were on last night...not yet at least.  It is saved on the DVR. I mean let's be realistic, I am not in my twenties and I would rather watch something else with more intellectual plot twists...'THE ROYALS'!

However I did watch 'Catfish' prior to the red carpet and saw a bunch of the celebs during the commercials and Tyler Posey was the first one I saw.  I said you have it easier, but you have to put in a little effort Tyler.  Aren't you like MR. MTV?  The star of Teen Wolf, showed up in vans, knee high black shorts and a short sleeved button up blue shirt.  ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Yup, that is as much as he could do apparently, I guess.  I can appreciate his chill lifestyle, (okay no I can't I can't stand it) but most of the other guys that appeared wore slacks, a nice sweater and some sort of jacket.  But I guess Tyler is just too cool.  I mean look at the effort the females in attendance had to put in:

Women in Style at MTV Awards

Consider yourself lucky Tyler. You don't have to worry about fitting in your dress, high heels, sitting in makeup and hair chairs for hours or worrying someone might have the same dress as you.

Hmmm, how to save the outfit?

I probably would of been fine with even throwing on a pair of black pants.  Maybe you wanted to show off some new ink?  I am not sure, but this is just poor wardrobe planning.  Even your co-stars dressed better than you and I hope they give you nothing but crap during the next day of filming.  Even you are gonna rock shorts on a red carpet, have fun with it.  Throw on a bow tie, or suspenders.  Go all the way.  Heck even Grumpy Cat wore a hat.

The Avengers Cast

Tyler, you are still young, I get it.  And you don't strike me as a guy who wants to go and spend money on a team of stylists.  But maybe you should.  Not need to BURN anything, just don't wear to another fashion event like the MTV Awards,  Heck even the guys from Avengers dressed up more than you...and they are way more famous.  Just something to think about!

Couldn't of worn Chucks like Mark Ruffalo?  Or a cool pair of sunglasses like Miles Teller?  Men!

Throwback Thursday-Punky Brewster

As I was trying to play catch up on my magazine reading, I read in In Style Magazine. that one of Kerry Washington's fashion icons was Punky Brewster.  Anyone else trying to picture Olivia Pope as Punky?  Already there my friend.  But I thought that it would be a perfect time to do a Throwback Thursday edition featuring Miss Brewster.

Sleeveless vests, multi-colored shirts, bright colored buttons, sun hair ties and of course mismatched tennis shoes were all staples of Punky's everyday attire.  Ah such simpler times when we all thought it was okay to dress like her, or maybe that was just me and Kerry.  And now I find it necessary to log into my Netflix account and see if I can stream old episodes.  Or pray for a reunion, although after googling pictures of Punky Brewster, I have seen more than enough of Soleil Moon Frye...too too much!

Fashion and Punky Brewster go so well together, that I even found out a well thought out description of her wardrobe musts, that I think I already figured next years Halloween costume...and its only April.  Feel free to steal the idea...unless you are one of my friends and will be attending the same party.  Because "I have Punky Power" and you don't!!!
