September has begun on a mixed note

 

Cyndi Lauper. I don't really have too many words for her look. I know she is eccentric and I suppose that mitigates a lack of taste. I think Julia Roberts has had a little intervention in her chest area. It looks very natural and well done and I hope she leaves it there.

The first photo of Peaches Geldof is a well put together look. Then I see it in its full glory and it is not quite so... umm well put together and does not really suit her. I can't wait for this hosiery phase to pass. It does not suit anyone other than strippers and 'professional' ladies.

  

I had high fived Mischa Barton for her recent style improvements. I was wrong. I don't know what has happened. Maybe when she was considered an up and coming style icon a stylist was dressing her, because now the choices bear very little relation to her former style. And it is not an improvement. Also back on the f*$%ery tip is Amy Winehouse. No words.

Lilley Allen is more chav than fab here. But it's an off day day off. Geri Haliwell needs to keep listening to her stylists, or call Victoria Beckham before she opens her wardrobe. Blah blah blah. Lindsay Lohan is out and about again after her stint in rehab and jail. I don't really know why I mention her here. I hope it's a fresh start. Her style is OK I suppose. Nothing offends. I don't know why Jennifer Garner is wearing this. Nothing flatters at all. Nothing.

Why would a woman in her late thirties think this is cool? Somebody please. Cheryl Cole always looks so unnatural and stiff. I am sure she enjoys looking pretty, but the extream 'fashion - paparazzi ready' nature of her outfits are too contrived for me. The same for Myleene Klass. She is trying a little too hard for the chic geek look and it has hit well wide of the mark.

 

I am grateful that Kelly Osborne has upgraded her hair colour, but it has been downgraded with this weave and this outfit (I know it is theatrical) is not the most flattering. I know she has lost weight and looks great for it too, but here is also the 'I used to be fatter and now look how hot I am syndrome' that she needs to be careful not to fall into. This is not flattering Nelly Furtado. Not at all.

  

Defina Deletrez Fendi – yes of the Fendi fashion dynasty is wearing granny chic and it is not chic to me. The shoes don't go with the outfit, the skirt is shapeless and unflattering. I can imagine the nuns from my school wearing this (minus the shoes. Except Sister Sylvia who was the only one who wore make-up and shaped her eyebrows). I am not sure that this coat is necessary Kat Deely. I think the outfit would have sizzled without it.  And I don't know why Christina Ricci would wear this dress. Really, why?

Time to change the hair stylist Rhianna. Time to change. This weave shouts bargain-bucket-market-Chinese synthetic-no money/class/taste to me.

The Emmys... good and not so good

I know it's late. Blame Windows vista and crappy internet connections (and please excuse my lazy commentry, I got a little tired).

Different shades of good.

Maria Menounos. One word. Stunning, just stunning. Kelly Osborne looks fabulicous. The hair could be better, but I will give it to her. Jane Krakowski is on the Hollywood glamour style tip and working it hard.

KayCee Stroh is working these colours so well. I am loving silk print. Pamella Roland looking fab in one shouldered white. Fab

The pale palette

I know you all thought I would put her in the bad list, but actually, Kim Kardashian is not bad and much classier than usual. Gugu Mbatha Raw's has got some kind of wonderful going on. Mariska Hargitay is working what she has. And working it well.

The Couples

Boris Kodjoe (one of my husbands) is kissing some woman. They say she is his wife. They are confused! Not bad, but LL Cool J needs to lose the hat.

Another couple looking great is Jennifer Carpenter and Michael C Hall look Holloywood hot. And hot and unconventional is Wanda Sykes and her partner Alex. They both sizzle.

I am unsure about a couple..

I am unsure about the beautiful Emily Blunt. The dress is not great from every angle, and her face looks a little strange. I think I like Anna Paquin's dress is lovely but I am not 100% sold on her wearing it – though she is attractive and looks nice.

Heidi Klum being Heidi Klum. I find this look a little predictable for her. But still very beautiful.

Mother and daughter..

Mother and daughters Susan Saradon and Eva Amurrui look absolutely fabulous. And Glenn Close and her daughter Annie Starke.

The darker (more mature ladies) palette.

She found her hotness again. Eva Longoria Parker Hollywood glamour all the way. Much better than her earlier effort is the very funny Jane Lynch. Hurrah! And Paula Abdul, not doing too badly.

   

Julia Louis Dreyfus scrubbed up nicely. Tina Fey looks lovely. Funny and classy!Julianna Margulies hot - whenever I see her I think about how she was paid to kiss George Clooney for years. The envy!

Some Colour..

 

I am loving January Jones futuristic, metallic glamour. Loving it. Kyra Sedgewick, women over forty looking great.

Different shades of 'Not So Good'

Matthew Fox doesn't look bad, just a little lost. And I love Vincent Cassel, but I don't love his look although it does not offend. He's French and should ooze style. It is not happening. I think Padma Lakshmi is still an attractive woman. However, she overdoes it and don't think she knows what suits her now she has had her baby. It's like is is forcing 'I'm still hot'.

  

Christina Hendricks has a great Rubinesque figure. But the dress is not good. Not at all good. And her face is odd too. Stephanie Pratt needs to understand what a dress is and what a top is. Poor thang. I am not sure about Rutina Wesley. The wig and dress could be better. Much better.

They let the side down.

Alan Cumming has strange taste. And keeping it down for the British men, David Tennant looks likes he is wearing a Top Man (before the hype) suit. How hard is it to find a decent suit? Men have it much easier yet still this happens.

Julia Ormond and Tony Collette can do much better than this. Mindy Kaling  over did the frou frou - the netting looks very cheap. Me no likey.

I don't understand Rita Hanks dress, they are probably Swarowski crystals, but it looks like it has been adorned with chunks of  plastic. And the shoes look like a strippers Sunday church shoes. I can't.
