Oooh. Now I kinda wish that I didn't sell my Project Runway Nick Verreos barbie on ebay for way too much money. Now she could have a smackdown with the Heidi Barbie.
Any thoughts on the Sea of Shoes styles? To me (no fashion expert), they look like they've been done and like they'd hurt. Meh.
What I'd love to see (from anyone) is more styles that make comfort less dowdy. Taryn Rose started something, and I wish more designers would run with it. I don't want to have to pick between comfort and style.** Or am I dreaming?
I was always of the opinion that Jennifer Lopez could have been a great actress, if she concentrated on acting, and not on designing ugly clothes and making bland, generic Top 40 music. Instead she spread herself out way too thin; she is not really great at any one thing, and everybody is sick of her.
@Sputnik_Sweetheart: Oh no, she's terrible at acting, too. Selena is the one outlier. Everything else--awful. Need I remind you of The Wedding Planner? Made in Manhattan? Gigli?
@thelawschooldropout: I disagree. She was very good in Selena and Out of Sight-- both of which came out before she tried to be a jack of all trades. All the movies you mentioned are after the clothing lines and albums. When you try to do everything under the sun, something is going to give.
I can't understand "Sweetface" when we all know it's actually "Sexyface". I mean I can't even look at her without a banner popping up in my mind that says OMGSEXXXXYFACE MY FACE WANTS TO SEXXX YOU.
That Jennifer Lopez outfit is more of what I envisioned would happen when Alice drank the "drink me" potion. I mean, her clothes wouldn't get bigger, too!
If that picture is any example, I can't believe that JLo's clothing line was unsuccessful. How else am I to achieve sexy-face-blow-up-doll-trampy-becrinolined-business-suit look now??
Gwynnie has gone from being Emma to Mrs. Elton. Obnoxious, self-aggrandizing, living in a fantasy world. The only people who can relate to her are movie stars and heiresses. Who does she think she's kidding? I am so over her.
@TheFormerJuneBronson: Ha! But really, her blog posts (or newsletters or whatever) actually say "My friends are always asking me for my corn bread recipe" or something to that effect. She can't hear herself. She is her own sycophant!
Nordstrom Rack and Saks Off 5th are nothing special. Neither can compare with Filene's Basement, which is why it's so depressing that Filene's Basement is having trouble. You bought out the original Filene's department store, perhaps you can save the Basement?
Love, hfree
(and yes, I know that Macy's does not own Filene's Basement, but a girl can dream for an FB rescue)
@tomatoheart: Well, FWIW, I do work with department stores. They fall into three categories: high-end, mid-tier, and mass market. Macy's falls into high-end (along with Nordstroms, which also has their own discount store, for example) so this makes sense to me and is also awesome.

That said, I secretly love several of her songs. Don't tell anyone.

There are people who have been "no-pooing" and refraining from using makeup, and other off the shelf product because of this.
She is such a smug, condescending, and narcissistic person
Gah For Goop!
