da look

DA LOOK





so last year the look was "boho chic" for all the men/women about town...you know you've seen it; the bangles, the long necklaces, the flowing street-sweeper skirts, and don't forget the oversize sunglasses.

i loved this look, i thought it was very mother-earthy, flower child, but with a touch of class. think black market skirts matched with a pair of vintage dior sunglasses.

this year, i've been spotting much of the same, but a little more hippie! i'm calling it 'hippie chick'. feel free to spread it around like wild fire...or maybe i should say 'petchulie fire'. think of hippie print headbands, same flowing skirts, less jewelry, more tunic style tops, and bright bright colors. the oversize frames are still in vogue, but less huge, and more shield-style.

here's a photo of nicole richie who's look i'm totally digging these days...minus the itty-bitty frame.


and speaking of her itty bitty frame...i'm never one to call someone overweight, just as i'd never call someone 'skinny', because being small myself i know just how much it can easily be interpreted as offensive and derogatory. but nicole, seriously i think we need to have a talk; from one 'skinny' to another...from the looks of this picture below, i think she seriously has a problem.



i'm glad she's not hiding behind hideously oversized frocks to mask her beyond petite frame, a la mary kate olsen...but on the other hand, someone should intervene. i loves me some nicole, but girlfriend could use to put on a few pounds!

hang in there missy! the gays are still behind ya!!
