Yay or Nay?

What is the style verdict of Drew Barrymore's Gucci criss cross dress? I am not sure if the badge-like thing is removeable but I would definitely give it a Yea without it. I still kinda like it.

"Resort"ing to Spring

While those of us who were lucky enough to budget wisely (I wasn't) are able to take advantage of the post Christmas sales, I am looking forward to the Spring. It's actually named Resort collections for the well heeled who travel to warm locations to escape the bitter winters. Bright candy colors continue to rule and make me yearn for cool summer evenings.

Oh B. You were doing so well with the purple and red color combo you wore on Jay's birthday (love it!) that I hate to bring this up. As a curvy girl myself, I believe in dressing for my body type and you have taken over as J-lo's curvaceous counterpart. But your love of all things mermaid is making you look like a fish out of water:



We know, we know you are the hottest chick in the game wearing Jay's chain, but for goodness sake we want you to able to walk down the red carpet, not shuffle and not to have pay someone to carry you up stairs. Check out Jennifer Hudson (who has made remarkable improvements), America Ferrera, and Scarlett Johannson for some much needed red carpet solutions. and fire your mother as your stylist. DO you hear me? Mom, you're fired.

Nicole Kidman's animal print fade away jacket looks more like she got a job as a chimney sweep and got ashes on the shoulders of her jacket. But hey, I could be alone in my assessment, what do you think?
