Clothes Not Worthy of a 100 Million Bucks

"Hipsters" is a term that is thrown around pretty regularly these days. We all know the usual Hollywood examples (Zoeey Deschanel, Shia LaBeouf, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, James Franco, Jared Leto, Michael Cera, etc.) and of course the Olsen Twins should be included in that list.  No one wears baggy thrift shop clothes like those two.  But seriously, per several websites, Ashley and Mary-Kate's fortune is worth at least...AT LEAST...$100 Million. And they have chosen to walk around LAX airport in these outfits?

Now these are teeny tiny twenty-seven-year-olds (I know these kids grow up so fast) and the over sized black jackets, sweaters swallow them up.  And lets face it, we are in the middle of a heatwave and water drought in California, I doubt you really needed these coats.

To dig deeper into their love affair of bohemian bagginess, I looked into the definition of a Hipster and here is an edited version of what the Urban Dictionary said:

Hipsters are a subculture of men and women typically in their 20's and 30's that value independent thinking, counter-culture, progressive politics, an appreciation of art and indie-rock, creativity, intelligence, and witty banter... Hipsters reject the culturally-ignorant attitudes of mainstream consumers, and are often be seen wearing vintage and thrift store inspired fashions, tight-fitting jeans, old-school sneakers, and sometimes thick rimmed glasses. Both hipster men and women sport similar androgynous hair styles that include combinations of messy shag cuts and asymmetric side-swept bangs. Such styles are often associated with the work of creative stylists at urban salons, and are usually too "edgy" for the culturally-sheltered mainstream consumer.  Despite misconceptions based on their aesthetic tastes, hipsters tend to be well educated and often have liberal arts degrees, or degrees in maths and sciences, which also require certain creative analytical thinking abilities. Consequently many hipsters tend to have jobs in the music, art, and fashion industries.

So lets see Women in their 20's and 30's-check. Seen wearing vintage and thrift store inspired fashion-check check. Tight-fighting jeans and thick rimmed glasses-check check check. Job in music, art and fashion industries-check check check check.  That is a lot of checks, but does it make it okay for them to wear these types of clothes...even if they can afford much better?

Hmmm, how to save the outfit?

I guess it is not our question to ask.  If I was worth $100 million would I wear these outfits?  Absolutely not.  But they are doing something right since I don't think either of them act on a regular basis and yet are still in the public eye.  (We will ignore Beastly).  But girls, it is okay to wear some form fitting clothes.  I understand the love of black, but the clothes can at least fit you.  BURN the parkas and come out in the sun...

(Side Note: I will say that certain examples in the 'Hipster' definition apply to me as well...not sure how I feel about that.  I will keep you posted.  But I mean my new favorite online is Modcloth.com)

Heidi Klum...You are on my List!

There are several celebs that I have written about that may be some of the worst dressed people period...this includes the candidates of TLC's 'What Not to Wear.'  I think I have been been real transparent about them-Miley, Olsen Twins, Kristen Stewart, Etc.  But Heidi Klum, you have officially been added to this list with this outfit.  And you were once a Super Model!!!

Heidi and her daughter Leni were out strolling in New York, which I will mention is a Fashion Mecca, wearing a black (grey) and white frilly sundress, over sized frock sweater and gigantic white scarf.  While her daughters fashion sense far surpasses her mothers, in her pink and white striped dress, both have ugly tennis shoes. But I am not going to pick on a little kid.  But cant you see Leni's embarrassment, "Is my mother really wearing that?"

Hmmm, how to save the outfit?

I just looked up the weather in New York to see if it was rainy, stormy or warm.  Its 87 degrees currently, so I think she can lose the scarf for sure.  If she is feeling a chill from shopping in the retail establishments, a cute little jean jacket or simple sweater would of been better.  The bottom of the dress already grabs enough attention, the top should be a bit more simple if she really wants to wear the dress.  I mean I first thought it was a tutu.  And those shoes...couldn't of put on a pair of sandals?

This is only one example of Heidi's horrible casual wardrobe.  I think she looks a bit better dressed up, so that leads me to believe she has a team to help her out.  So the blame falls on her, maybe she should let Leni pick out her clothes.  BURN the dress, it seems pretty bad from what I see and the sweater.  Keep the scarf and tennis shoes (if you must) for a rainy day and move on...ask your fashion consultants to take you shopping.  And do what you can to get off my list, which trust me, you do not want to be on!
