Oops, She did it AGAIN...And its not Britney

Simply put...Again?  Really?  Ugh...

Christina Aguilera wears this little gold studded underwear number after making this comment on NBC's final performance night on the Voice:

“Your beautiful wife and your daughter and family are here tonight, and I just thought the lyrical connotation was a little derogatory towards women."

-On Tony Lucca's '99 Problems' Performance

Even Carson Daly looks uncomfortable

You know what I find derogatory towards women?  A 31-year-old mother wearing this on national television. 

Hmmm, how to save the outfit?

WEAR BOTTOMS!!!!

This is not the usual BURN or FIRE type of post.  But you cannot make that kind of comment and then go on the next night in this...Bad Christina.  BAD.

I Hate it when I leave MY PANTS at Home like Christina!

Ah Christina Aguilera, so many outfit selections since this season on 'The Voice' started and I have yet to comment.  Its hard to write about her, when you have Cee Lo sitting in the chair to the right with wigs and light up teeth.  But last night broke the dam of quietness from me. 

Non-Fashion Rant: This season has really made me look at her different.  We get it, you don't want to be the sweet girl from the Micky Mouse Club or  'Genie in a Bottle' days.  But your negative attitude towards other contestants, who are not on your team-especially Tony Lucca, is starting to take away from the talent on stage.  And you only get one thing...fast forwarded by me. However last night, my DVR caught up to the live airing in time to see this little number...

Christina and Chris Mann

Armed with a suit jacket and giant Tiara, Christina left her dressing room without any bottoms on.  Oh No! Now I have seen this as a new fad, with celebs such as Rihanna and others attempting to rock this look.  And although I don't support that either, it somehow looks even worse on her.  As she is on National Television doing it.

Hmmm, how to save the outfit?

PUT PANTS ON!!!

It is apparent Christina is trying to use Season 2 to revamp her image.  And the last few weeks, her outfit selections were a lot more subdued, almost acceptable. And then she came up with this little number.  This is my 3rd post about 'The Voice' and the terrible outfits.  Time to do more than BURN...3 strikes, time to FIRE!!! 

P.S. And while your at it, Chris Mann take that scarf off.  You are in Los Angeles under hot lights...you look ridiculous

What do you guys think?  Comment below...

Nicole Richie is NO Fashion Star in this Dress...

I think it has been proven on this blog, that designers can make some interesting decisions in regards to their creations.  And Nicole Richie, mentor on NBC's 'Fashion Star' is no different. Not only does Nicole have the jewelry line, House of Harlow, but she also has a fashion line, Winter Kate. And at this Fashion Star event in NYC, she combined both lines to make this look...and I wish she hadn't.

If  you have read 'To Burn or Fire' before, or are a first time reader, you will see I am big on patterns being proportional to size.  Nicole is only 5'1" and much too small for a big bold pattern like this and  the length of the dress makes her legs look even shorter than they are.  Finally the knot on the top of her head only adds to the upside exclamation point of this outfit.  Only thing I like, the reddish-orange shoes...

Hmmm, how to save the outfit?

So much to say, so little time.  I will keep this relatively short and sweet.  Change the hair, less is more with this pattern of the dress, leave it down.  If we have to wear such a wild design, which she obviously loves since she designed it, make it less.  I would shorten the skirt and remove the sleeves.  If she is dead set on the sleeves, I would add a belt to add some shape.  With her arms down at her side, they just blend and she looks shorter and wider.  Just what every girl wants to hear!
As far as bad decisions go, I am sure Nicole and I would agree-probably not her worst one.  But as she is growing up, she is quickly becoming a fashion icon due to her bohemian style.  I don't think this is the best example of her Winter Kate collection, or lets hope not.  With that said, lets BURN the dress (or grow) and keep the shoes.  And no need to FIRE anyone...today!!!

Voice Performers look Effortless (In a bad way!)

We have come to associate certain things with watching NBC's 'The Voice' this season.  We of course have Cee Lo and his crazy outfits.  Now he has added a white cat, named Purrfect, which P.S. is rented.  Adam Levine and Blake Sheltons continued "Bromance."  And Christina trying to steal all the attention from even the performers on stage.  But last night besides what has been deemed some-what average performances were two outfits that stood out way more than the voices and judges shenanigans.  And I felt the need to comment, as usual...


Karla Davis

Lets start out with country girl Karla Davis, with her sequined dress and cowboy boots.  Now I can appreciate she went for something a bit nicer, as she usually performs in jeans and flannel shirts.  But this is your first live show-STEP IT UP MORE!!!  You don't, I don't care who you are, wear cowboy boots and a short sequined dress and think that is okay. (For a better view of her outfit during her performance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0CXcYrh5Go)

A little less drastic, but equally disappointing outfit selection, was Chessa's Navy and Red Capri track suit.  She tried to spice it up with a sparkly yellow top, but it came off sloppy. And then she threw on high heels.  Again, its your first live show, for millions of people in America to see.  And I know there is a comfort level, but she dressed up more for the battle rounds.  And the track suit isn't even Team Cee Lo's preferred team colors of Red and Black.  (For a better view of her outfit during her performance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Im9ei0_UKt8&feature=player_embedded)

Chessa

Hmmm, how to save the outfits?

Karla's outfit is save-able, throw on a pair of high heels.  Simple fix, but do not go back to flannels-its National TV.  Chessa, scrap the warm ups and go glam, keep the sparkly top and build around it.

Lets be honest, this is your shot to make America remember you.  Our votes are what can make or break your time on the show and directly influence your career.  I know the show isn't called 'The Clothes' but even the boys made a effort for their stage appearance.   You are allowed to go a little crazy with your image on stage (i.e. Cee Lo) and get away with it.  I am still unsure who pulls the shots on the show, the artists or the coaches.  But the stylists of the voice, I am disappointed if you picked these out for them.  Karla keep the dress and boots, don't wear again together in front of me.  Chessa, the warm up suit should be for around the house or a casual event-not on stage.  And although not appropriate, no need to BURN.  But stylists or wardrobe department, do better, so we don't have to FIRE you!
