The Do's and Don'ts of high fashion: A critique of some of the clothes.

CREATIVE CARRIE:

The outfit: possibly.

The necklace: definitely

The hair: definitely not. Frizzy curls were in during the 80's. Hence the flashback. Thank goodness Carrie's moved on.

The outfit: definitely. It's perfect for a hot stroll on the beach. The colour is delightful and the material looks elegant and airy. It flows magnificently in the wind.

The outfit as a whole: Definitely not. It looks like Carrie just came from a baseball game in Neverland. I love the skirt, but it would have looked better on Lily or Rose for that matter. And the top? Yes, it is Dior, but it seems much too like a pair of pjs to me. Just my opinion however...

The outfit: Maybe. I get an Asian vibe with this outfit, however the necklace throws in a little tribal into the mix. Carrie's pinned back hair also adds to the sophistication. It was a cute dress to wear out on the patio for dinner.

SEXY SAMANTHA

-classy powerhouse.

The outfit: Definitely yes. I find myself to be more of a 'Samantha', so I might be biased towards her outfits. However, you can never go wrong with a classic ivory dress and gorgeous snake skin purse. Perfect.


The outfit: Definitely yes. Once again, Samantha manages to pull off a sexy low cut sparkle dress that would be aimed at twenty-ers. She exudes elegance and sex appeal with everything she throws on. This evening dress fits into that category.

CLASSIC CHARLOTTE


The outfit: Definitely yes. Charlotte manages to be sexy, but in a classic covered way. She keeps a feminine look with every outfit she wears. This one portrays the word classy hidden within the material.


The outfit: Yes. It's very very very cute. I would recommend ANYONE to wear this adorable cupcake apron. Its absolutely wonderful, and a great way to style up your baking party.



The outfit: Yes. Charlotte never fails to surprise with her girlish touches. I love the swirls on her top, and it matches Lilly's headband.

MIX IT UP MIRANDA


The outfit: YESYESYESYES. I LOVED this dress. However, you could see the mesh around Miranda's chest area. Nonono. And it was extremely long. However, besides those two things, I adored this stud dress. Miranda's style confuses me. She doesn't really stick to ONE style. She mixes it up. She had some hits and some definite misses in the movie, however, over all she was as cute as ever.

THE GIRLS

cherry bomb and Dakota Fanning's nail polish.

Dakota Fanning, I am in love with your 15 year old self. I wish, at that point in my life I was as fashionable, and as cute as you are!
I was looking for some light tv watching before I hit my head against my pillow, and I came across her adorable face, and George Lopez's... possibly not so much.
Anyway, Dakota promo-ed her new video, where she is casted along with Kristen Steward in "The Runaways".
Dakota quotes that the music played by the band is actually 'really cool and she wishes more people her age would listen to it'.
Then she went into a cute story about how her mom made her sign a contract on how she will NEVER get a tattoo (this was at the age of 11!). I guess being a celeb makes parents uber protective.
A special appearance was made by Kat Von D, and Dakota got a surpise 'tattoo' related gift. (YAY PERMANENT MARKERSSSS)



watch this trailer (for sick clothes, sassy teen girls and an explanation for Dk Fan's fake tat) Cherie Bomb... keep that in mind.
-----

One things forsure, I'm going to see this just for the clothes... Once I have more time to actually reflect on everything that is happening in this trailer, I will most definitely post about it.
Fun fact of the day: Dakota's character that she plays (Cherie Currie), was actually the same age as Dakota. FIFTEEN. Makes me wonder what I'm doing with my life. Not actually though, but to be introduced to all those vices when you just enter teen hood? For me, that concept is quite insane, but if it never happened, then our world would be sans 'the runaways'. sad sad world.
Go listen to their tunes! They're really good!

SO TO RELATE THIS TO SOMETHING BESIDES SEX DRUGS AND ROCK AND ROLL (as definitely seen in the trailer),
I noticed Dakota's cute nail polish while she was on Lopez Tonight. It was a cute but sexy shade of yellow.
Which reminded me that OPI has recently launched their new line of colors for the summer, which was inspired by the one and only HONG KONG.

• Bling Dynasty: A char-"ming" gold that shimmers and glimmers
• Red My Fortune Cookie: And this rich red is in my future
• Hot & Spicy: A sizzling coral that’s a kung pao wow!
• Dim Sum Plum: A berry delectable delicacy
• Jade is the New Black: The vibrant green is the new fashion vibe
• Suzi Says Feng Shui: A serene cobalt blue to balance your yin yang
• A Good Man-darin is Hard to Find: But you've found it- in this zesty red-orange!
• Lucky Lucky Lavender: Be pretty and prosperous in this luscious light purple
• Meet Me on the Star Ferry: A Kowloon-lit, moonlit violet
• Panda-monium Pink: Lend a panda a hand-a in this uproarious light pink
• Pearl of Wisdom: Smart girls choose this lustrous pearl shade
• Chop-sticking to My Story: I mean it- "pick up" this warm caramel shade

As for my outfit as today goes, I played it casual, (due to the cold weather), but did a really neat braid featured as a head band (thing).


Black tank, jeans, peacoat and a thrifted brown belt.

teen vogue boys. check, check, check it out.

Look out girls! Here's the lineup of the new Teen Vogue Boys. And gosh darn, they all melt my heart.

Look out guys! If you want to dress like these hunks, pay attention, girls love it. Study the photos and maybe I'll see you around campus similarly dressed. Spring is just around the corner, it's a great time to show off your looks!

Logan Lerman. The newest cutie on the scene from Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Looking classy in a simple suit and fun sneakers.
In the hot seat: Thom Browne suit, shirt, and tie. Vans shoes, $42.

Paul Wesley, another gorgeous vampire. Is there any other kind lately? Wearing a button up shirt, sweater and a classy spring jacket, sporting a popped collar.

Taylor Lautner. I wouldn't mind taking a swim in that pool with you... you know a sexy guy when he can look gorgeous clothed while swimming. I don't expect all you guys to readily jump into a pool wearing a suit, but a guy who cleans up well always finds his way to a girls heart.

Ed Westwick, Marry me? I'm being serious... I actually cannot express how much I love Ed's looks and character. I have no criticisms... just love. Any guy who can pull off a simple shirt, sweater and blazer, topping it off with a necklace and laid back jeans will definitely get a smile out of me.
Ed wears a D&G blazer, Victor Glemaud henley, Tim Hamilton t-shirt, Acne jeans, and a Lady Grey necklace.

Zac Effron. Simple but high class in a plaid shirt, tie and blazer. Another preppy boy outfit which I love. Zac Effron is a close second to Ed Westwick in terms of the race for my heart.

Robert Pattinson. Ohhh boy. Looking stunning in just a wind breaker. Gives hope to us all. Robert's distinctive sexy stare is just enough to woo a girl. Guys, practice it in the mirror. practice makes perfect you know...

The 90210 guys. In sports uniforms... how much more good looking (rugged), can a group of guys get? Click for behind the scenes.

The Jonas Brothers. Grown up, and handsome.Click for behind the scenes.
