SAG Awards

Winona Ryder looks like the bride of Beetlejuice in this far from fabu outfit with  that sixth grader satchel. Hair and makeup are a disaster and she really has nothing on that compliments her figure, skin tone, or face. Lovely.

I've read a lot of mixed reviews about this dress January Jones wore last night, and I happen to be a very big fan of it. Not so much her hair or the shoulders of the dress, and her makeup is pretty bad too. The gold and black on the dress flatter her beige skin, and the lace detail is to die for!

Who's surprised? Us either.

What's up with his hair and shoes? I love that tie and those pants, he just looks so yummy!

What's worse than Tim Burton's wife in lace? Tim Burton's wife trying to pull off Marc Jacobs and the whole 90's shpiel all while wearing  mismatched shoes. We're sure she had a lovely time... 

Can't say we love it, Kimmie. We're kind of over it, actually. Got to say we love the  Lorraine Schwartz jewelry, but the dress is so much she should have done either/or. 


FINALLY the bech is able to pull off de la Renta!!!!!! A celebration is in order! Her girls, however, can use some support.

STUNNING! Love this love this love this! Mila, well done! Hair and makeup are up to par, and that dress is gawwwwjus!

One of our favorites of the night, Angie brought the glam when she wore this feathery  number by the house of  Monique Lhuillier. Hair...not so much.

How does she always manage to look this bad? Unflattering dress, hair, and don't get us started on that nanny necklace.

We thought we had a problem with Lea's girls, but Sophia's are going nuts, just like her eyebrows (we await anxiously for the day she grooms them. I've even said a little prayer for them once before.)

Ladies and gays: this is something that should never be attempted: a dress cut at the wrong length for one's height and hitting in all the wrong places for one's body type. Short of breath here, give me a moment. I never thought a Chanel could look so bad on someone. 

She's killing it! Love the dress, hair, makeup (minus the lips), and nail color! Grey and blue look so good together! Her roots need a touch up, though.

Love the dress: not on her, and not that color. Makeup is streaky and the hair is so Melissa Joan Heart circa 1995. 

Could she have worn anything more unflattering for her bump? A nice flow-y gown would have done the trick. The purse has got to go, but her hair and makeup are perfect! Ugh, can't get over this hideous number!

Not your color, babe. Her gown is pink, her hair is red, her cheeks are red, and her undertones are pink (she's combination). Does that make any sense to you?

Last but not least, the "what was she thinking" dress brought to you by our favorite lesbian, Jane Lynch.  The only thing that stood out (positively) was her makeup.

FNO with Alex


Midtown is only beautiful from a rooftop, but on Friday night it was spectacular. Heel laden ladies (and some gentlemen) owned the streets of Manhattan as the whole industry came out to support fashion. I was able to catch a glimpse of Simon Doonan and Francisco Costa (literally 10 minutes after I said to Alex, "if there was one person I could meet tonight and end the night with that, it would be Francisco Costa"). I always thought he was so tall, I never imagined he would be my height (5'7 1/2). I say that with love*

I brought my good friend Alex into the city with me for moral support (and because every woman MUST have her best gay friend in tow at ALL TIMES).

We made our way to Barney's and Bergdorf's (where the line to get into the building was about 500 people long). This year's FNO, as opposed to last year's, felt like an event. Last year when they first introduced Fashion's Night Out, it was more of a shopping incentive to see your favorite celebrities and designers. This year, with their obviously more advanced marketing methods, they transformed it into a world wide event.

After we went to our favorite stores uptown, we met up with my good friend, Stacie (a celebrity makeup artist, see here), who was working at an event at Touch, the Shop Addicts Fashion's Night Out 2010 Fashion Binge. They had a fashion show, DJ, and Loren Ridigner (Kim K's BFF, and who's cosmetic company, Motives, was sponsoring the event) and Sammy from the Jersey Shore made an appearance.

Guests drank from the open bar and people danced downstairs as the quieter guests enjoyed the VIP suites upstairs on the balconies overlooking the dance floor.

We didn't end up going downtown to SoHo or the Meatpacking District because we were soo tired (Fashion Week is exhausting, y'all!), but overall it was a great night with great company and friends.

Shop Addicts: FASHION BINGE & Shop for a Cause

Proceeds from the night went to Could You?, a non-profit organization that helps empower and sponsor young girls and women to pursue an education in Mozambique, Africa. See more here.



Alex, Stacie, and myself.
I'm wearing a Tahari dress, the handle of my red purse as my belt, a wooden cross from Armenia, a pomegranate necklace from Armenia, yellow necklace from Russia, wooden bracelet from Armenia, glasses from F21, and boots from Spring Shoes. My red purse is from NY and Company (how fitting, right). My cardigan is Sugarlips, one of my favorite brands! They have the best silk tanks.

On Alex: Pants and Cardigan: H&M. Blue top: Urban Outfitters














Dee Rivera, the CEO of Shop Addicts, and Stacie Ford





Loren Ridinger and Sammie Sweetheart. Sammie, you could have worn something else girl, that outfit is too plain for an event like this!!


The Rest of the Night

Before the Shop Addicts event, Alex and I made our way to Alice and Olivia, and took a picture of the crowd outside of Bergdorf's.





Would love to wear that hourglass and gold chain as a necklace...it was just for decoration.

Told You So!

Remember last week when I posted this?

Jessica Seinfeld wore this Peter Pilotto dress to the TriBeca Film Festival Party, and Kate Bosworth wore the same number to Montblanc's Charity Fashion Show. I think Kate looks unequivocally better.
