Catherine Zeta-Jones

Oh no. I do not like the dress Catherine Zeta-Jones wore last night to the opening night of her Broadway show "A Little Night Music." I mean, of course SHE looks gorgeous (Let's face it, she always does.) but her dress is all kinds of wrong. The top has the potential to be cute, but I have no idea what's going on on the bottom. Hells to the no, Zeta-Jones.

Rachel McAdams

Let's just talk about two things right now.
1. How much I love Rachel McAdams. I love her lots. She's gorgeous. She dated Ryan Gosling (Yes, that's another reason why I adore her). And she transformed from Regina George to Allie Hamilton. If that's not great acting, then I don't know what is.
2. How gorgeous she looked at the red carpet premiere of "Sherlock Holmes." I love her Andrew Gn gown. I love the color. I love the dress. I love her hair. I love her lipstick. I love it all.

Kim Kardashian

Question: How ugly are Kim Kardashian's boots?
Answer: Super, super, super ugly.

Fashion Citation Number Ten

Today I had a heart attack. Perhaps a stroke. Maybe even both. Why, you ask? Because a guy at school decided that it was acceptable to wear... Are you ready?... Wait for it... WHEELS ON HIS SHOES! Not Wheelies, you know, the fugly shoes every kid asked for for Christmas in third grade, but actual wheels were somehow attached to his Converse shoes. I died. I literally died. I freaked out. I mean, maybe it was because I was tired, just had coffee and was freezing, but either way, I had a Fashion Citation heart attack. I took a picture, it's kind of hard to see it, but there are definitely wheels on his shoes. Good Lord.

Fashion Quote of the Day

"Oh, never mind the fashion. When one has style of one's own, it's always twenty times better."
Margaret Oliphant

Fashion Quote of the Day

Today I got a text from my dearest friend Tali that contained the following quote:
"... 'But a girl must have clothes if she is to go into a good society... A girl who does not dress well is stuck in a corner, even if she is pretty.' - Some Garment Factory Worker" (Via Text Message)
Well put, "Some Garment Factory Worker". Well put.

"The Cocktail Dress"

Today at work, (Yes, another work story, I was there for 8 1/2 hours today. Don't judge me) I made a purchase that I am very proud of. Let's just put it this way, if I could marry a book, I would marry "The Cocktail Dress" by Laird Borrelli-Persson. If you don't own it, please go out and buy it now. It is one of the greatest books I own. I die. I literally die.

Fashion Citation Number Nine

So, today at work (I won't tell you where I work, though you can probably see it from the picture) this woman came in and I couldn't help but take a picture. I know I shouldn't have my phone out, but I was there alone for 2 hours and only a handful of people came in during that time. And it was so good that even if my phone was in the back, I would've ran back and grabbed it. Let me paint a picture for you. Then well, show you the actual picture...
Alright. Cheetah print dress. Love cheetah print, hated this. It looked like some sort of halter dress, but she managed to tie the strings in the front of her dress. Yeah, I don't know. Then she had on tights. Love tights, but not on this over 30 year old woman. Then an ugly jacket circa 2003 with faux fur and everything. Then boots that had the potential to be cute, but they weren't. Then to top if all off, she had on horrible smelling perfume and has apparently never met a brush. Oh, did I mention there was dark red lip liner involved? Now, see for yourself.

Once Upon A December Night...

Once upon a time (that time being Thursday, December 10), Anne Hathaway wore the cutest one-shoulder little black dress to the Friends Without A Border Gala Benefit.
