Shopping My Own Closet

Haven't worn these jeans that often...they're light so they're not too appropriate for winter. But today was a good day to wear them. I like the pairing with the light gray cardi and white tank. I couldn't resist adding some black though. This blazer doesn't get much wear since it's part of a suit but I might take it out more often from now on.

So I'm on day....um, 18. Damn. I think that's the longest I haven't shopped in many many many years. I feel pretty good actually. I miss shopping though...but I realized that I don't NEED it. My life is perfectly fine and fulfilling without it. It's kindof liberating!

I don’t think that there’s anything earth shatteringly inventive or avant garde about this outfit but therein lays its beauty. It’s simple and stunning, the perfect illustration of the brilliance and versatility of a good dress. Dresses for summer are a no-brainer. How else can you look put together with as little effort as possible and still stay cool in the sweltering heat? The length is absolutely ideal and the color and pattern are very flattering. I’m a big fan of orange for summer, it works well with a tan and unlike, say, yellow, it’s an easy color to wear. The white pattern makes it more interesting. With dresses it’s best to not over-accessorize, it can look contrived. In keeping with the easy, breezy (yeah, Molly Sims is a Cover Girl) style of the dress, opt for a nice long necklace or dangly earrings, never both. The brown peep toe shoes are adorable and keep the focus on that gorgeous dress.

As for hair, I thoroughly approve of the tousled waves but a casual ponytail would work just as well.

As much as I hate saying this, Ashley Olsen almost always looks kinda good, unlike Mary Kate who looks like even the bag lady would take pity on her. I really love what Ashley did with this ensemble. The miniskirt/long blazer combo is really hard to pull off without seeming like you forgot your pants at home. The proportions are damn near perfect. She breaks up the look with the long grey tshirt and a mismatched brown clutch. And check out those shoes! So hot. Gigantic sunglasses and behead hair complete the look. I’m giving this an “A.”

Love this chick! She's beautiful, smart, and really talented...oh, and she looks good with a shaved head too. Can she seriously do any wrong?
So let's start with this ensemble. Formal shorts are a tricky thing to wear. They can easily veer into the Beyonce at the 2004 VMA territory (remember those gold lame atrocities...who can forget?) In this case however, the shorts effectively act as a skirt with the matching tailored jacket. I love the fuchsia shirt and the pom pom pumps (oh look, alliteration...I wasn't even trying.) So much fun! Her hair works perfectly too- the tousled waves keep it from looking severe. Kudos.

So as I was watching Season 3 of Arrested Development last night I fell in love with Charlize Theron all over again. So I was so excited to find this photo of her at a Christian Dior party (she’s wearing the designer’s clothes too.) In my opinion she’s one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood and seems really nice and grounded. She’s not stick skinny either and love that fact that she’s rocking her au naturel chest in a low cut dress (too much cleavage is so tacky, especially the silicone kind) Speaking of that dress…love dramatic ruffles and strong purple color. It looks amazing on her. And those shoes! How unexpected. Purple and mustard yellow can look heinous together but she makes it work. A wise accessory choice.

It's my girl, Rihanna in Elle magazine. I saw the pics today and she looks absolutely gorgeous. Her hairstyle is stunning on her. Wish I could pull it off.

In my opinion, the lady hardly ever does wrong. Her style is always edgy but she manages to make it look elegant and effortless at the same time. That Balenciaga dress is a hard one to pull off but it's absolutely amazing on Diane. I like that she paired such an attention-grabbing dress with muted shoes. Oh course, her best accessories are those gorgeous legs (and Joshua Jackson...where is he?)

How adorable are they?? They'd make the best looking first couple since Jackie O and JFK. On a side note, Michelle looks great in tangerine. The color really pops against her skin and the shape of that sheath dress is super-flattering. If only she ditched those pearls already!
