Belt revisited




Yes I know this belt has made about three appearances in the last three posts... maybe? Yes, I think so. I'm sorry. I realize that's overkill. I can't help it though! It looks good with everything. I think what the problem was... was that I never accessorized much before-or as much as I should have. So when I shopped for more jewelry and belts, I went a little crazy. :) It won't be showcased next time, I promise. This tank top (under the white collared shirt) I got at Buffalo Exchange. I took a huge bundle of clothes to try and sell there. Not much luck... but about $8 store credit. This is the $8 investment I made! There is this thing that happens when you sell your clothes. You, at one point, cherished whatever it is you're giving away, and the lady behind the counter is putting it all in a stack on the side because she assumes no one will want it. Tis' sad. They always give you that run-around speech about how they are trained to take only what they know they're missing on the racks, which, I guess is supposed to make you feel better. I usually reply with, "ok, well whatever. Do you have some place you can donate all this so I don't have to walk around with it anymore... or stare at it in my trunk?" And then I sigh and walk away in embarrassment.

All That Glitters is Gold(en)

Posted by: Ashley

Well, the good news is I made it through my 9.5 hour morning shift. The bad news is, I don't have an outfit post for today. However, before I start doing the loads of laundry, tons of cleaning and just a little bit of watching TV, I wanted to look at some of the dresses from last nights Golden Globes. There were a lot of gorgeous dresses and a lot of not so gorgeous dresses (though I do like Sandra Bullock's dress.)

Here are my top 6 dresses from the Golden Globes:

6. Lea Michele - I love the pink of this dress. It's sweet. Like bubblegum. I also like the ruffles. I think it works because of her minimalist makeup and lack of competing jewelry. However, I do think Lea is looking like she's on the verge of being unhealthy. I thought she was adorable in the beginning episodes of Glee when she had a bit more meat on her.



5. Scarlett Johannson: While her dress isn't the brightest color or the most daring, I love the vintage elegance and the soft color of the dress. Not just anyone could pull off those sleeves, but Scarlett can. I also like that she isn't showing off the girls too much, unlike another Golden Globe red carpet walker


4. Eva Longoria: This is a lovely dress. Not the most exciting dress, but lovely. It looks great on her figure and  I love the neckline. I think this dress would have been amazing in a plum color, but seeing as how emerald  was the color of the evening and there were no plum dresses out there (not that I saw anyway) I guess it's last years color. 


3. Dianna Argon: I love her. I think she is one of the most beautiful girls. This dress is simple and a soft color (like Scarlett's) but I love the simplicity of it. The straight neckline looks fantastic on her, and the necklace pulls the dress together. Her hair is simple, yet elegant. I think she looks like an angel.


2. Mandy Moore: This color is to die for. And one shoulder necklines are so adorable. I love that this dress features tulle in a great way. The sweetheart neckline under the tulle is a great look for Mandy and I love her non-invasive jewelry. I just like her, I guess.


1. Mila Kunis: Despite the fact that she spent $7,000 on a facial which really appalls me, Mila looks gorgeous. The green, the neckline, the hair, the detail... it's fabulous. Mila continues the trend of simple jewelry, which I like. As much as I love chunky jewelry, I love the soft looks with gowns. Anyway, I believe Mila looks 1000x better than her Black Swan co-star Natalie Portman. I know she is pregnant, but a huge rose on your dress? Really?


Well, there are my picks for the 2011 Golden Globes. Do you agree or disagree?
