Vogue and Style.com have posted a few pictures and an article focusing on the movie-musical Nine. The pictures feature a phenomenal lineup – Judi Dench, Marion Cotillard, Kate Hudson, Fergie, Nicole Kidman, Penélope Cruz, and Sophia Loren. Britain’s Daily Mail also has pictures up of the musical.
Glamour is inviting readers to select the best dressed in Hollywood. They’ve a also posted a slide show featuring unboring work outfits, while Marie Claire has a slide shows to help curvy girls find jeans and Michelle Obama’s signature look.
Lastly, NBC10 has information on Barbie’s latest makeover – done by Christian Louboutin. Apparently Louboutin found Barbie’s ankles to be too large, and made them thinner to complete the makeover. While we love Louboutin’s signature red bottomed shoes as much as the next girl, we can’t help but wonder – really?
Recessionista chic
If I’ve heard it once, I’ve heard it a thousand times. Recessionista chic. How to stay fashionable in a challenging economic climate. A Google search produces over 604,000 results for the term. While I am well aware of the fact that Christian Louboutins are not in the budget, and I’m all for being frugal. I also think there is a point where going for Recessionista chic can go too far.
The point of going to far isn’t cooking at home instead of going out to eat, nor is it rummaging through your bohemian grandmother’s old things to find something fabulous to compliment your outfit. However, it could be this. Shoe clips, to update your shoes without breaking the bank.
I don’t understand. Entire pairs of shoes can be purchased for a lower price than these accessories. What’s the point?
