Looking great so far this month - April 2011

Not unusual for Common to be on my best dressed list, but it is unusual for Curtis Jackson (my guilty secret crush) to be so well turned out. He must have hired a new stylist. And Farell Williams has left the boy sweats at home and it looks great.
Jessica Alba is such as stylish mother(again) to be. Love how she keeps dressing the bump well.
Selma Blair, Victoria Beckham are also doing pregancy with uber flair. And I cannot believe that Miranda Kerr had a baby 3 months ago. This is just not fair. Liz Hurley is representing well for the older mothers too.

This is one time I do like Willow Smith's little Chanel suit. And I adore Kingston and Zuma Rosendales little men swagger! The suits are stunning.
Christie Brinkley looks great at 57. I salute her. And I Courtney Cox has a killer figure, dressed for business! And I liked Kylie twice this month so far.
So far I have not seen Chanel Iman looking bad. That's something. And Zoe Kravitz is genetically cool. I don't usually like the style of 'baller' wives, but Lebron James' better half looks stunning in white - this season's 'black'. Cat Deely, scrummy in monochrome. And Kelly Rowland casually fab, from wig to shoe!

 The Controversial- Loving Kelly Osborn in Vivien Westwood and her mother looks slick in her uniform trouser suit.  There is something 'sex and the city' that I like about Fergie's outfit.  And I love the fact that Kelis is genuinely cutting edge. I am not sure about the Morris dancer bells (I think) on her shins, but love the fact that she can carry it off.

Teyana Taylor (don't ask, I don't know!) looks stunning in this black dress with the red suede shoe. Old school Diana Ross glamour. Loving Zoe Saldana too, dressy and casual.  Love the Djmon and Kimora union. Gorgeous with their little heartbreaker.

Jennifer Hudson still hitting the right notes with her choices.  And hasn't little Miss Sunshine grown up. Abigail Breslin is unrecognisable in her teens.  I am ignoring the chemical issues on the face and love Kim Kardashian's choice here. And Toccara represents real curves. Fierce.

Can't decide...



Beyonce (and husband) were in Paris this month. I loved some elements of her choices - The patent red shoes and matching lipstick, the sequinned jacket and nude leather jacket; and there were some elements that I really didn't like: the tranny, platform Mary Jane pumps. And I think Marc Jacobs should hang his head in shame for putting his name to the frumpy coloured/shaped final outfit. Beyonce's beautiful face works her looks as best she can.

Not sure this month so far

I love the works of Lauryn Hill, Zandra Rhodes and Christy Turlington. Their unique style will stand the test of time, however today I have questions..

Estelle, Oh Estelle. There's a stylist out there who wants you to release your inner fab!

I love Halle Berry, but this month I am disappointed with her usually sharp dress sense.  I can't say I love the colour and cut of dresses that she has chosen.  I had/have a secret spot for Thierry Henry and I usually love facial hair, but this is not really working too well for me. I'd be happy to get it in shape for him.

It's the sidesow Bob wig and then the crocket false lashes that makes us mortals feel OK.  Not that I like it when people look 'average', it just serves to remind us all that we're not so bad really.
Khloe Kardashian has a nice/normal figure. However, her choices have made her look larger than she is and also do not flatter. I am unsure about her sister Kourtney's jumpsuit. It is too long on her.
Gadboury Sidebe is still dangerously obsese. I cannot see past that.  And Lea Michele is too thin. I don't think that is a good look. I expect 'quirky' from Solange Knowles. Sometimes I love it, sometimes I don't. I can't make up my mind here.

Not the best so far this month.. April 11

Hayden Pattinere needs to hire a stylist who recognises that she is not a middle aged housewife.  And the Olsen sisters just need to shop on the high street (and give me their millions!). Jessica White looking a little 'not quite'. Again.

Usher has worn this look beyond death. It needs to be buried. ASAP.  I don't understand why Catherine Hiegle does not own a mirror. It's my only explanation of this. And this is the most flattering angle for Christina Aguilera's outfit. And I don't understand why wear clothes that do not fit well (and don't look good).

I expect more from Vanessa Williams. Having left Ugly Betty, her style has slipped a little. This batwing polyester looking (though probably silk) jumpsuit leaves me wanting.  I wont't go on about 'the mose beautiful woman in the world'. Just her choice in clothing. It is not good.  And Mica Paris, ex host of what not to wear is showing us all how not to wear it.

Lindsay Lohan. I can't - it's all a mess.  Mischa Barton, Paige and an Olsen twin, demonstrate how not to accent red in your outfit.

Killing me softly.. killing me

I have so much respect for Serena Williams, but this is not sitting well with me. Love curves, but, well, I can't... I can not. I wept.

Both beautiful.... but

Naomi did it better....



She is the professional model, but Beyone still looks hot.

I did not agree

Jennifer Lopez looks better than the average 41 year old mother. She has a lot of help and for me, the excess of extensions and her look that often lacks 'sincerity' means she would not have been a contender on my list. Sorry - but congratulations at the same time.
