loves it / hates it

LOVES my 8AM disco party in my room!!! every morning!


just realized today that the sun hits the mini-disco balls I have hanging on my chandelier every morning and projects thousands of tinkerbell shimmers all over my walls and ceiling at 8am every day.

maybe today is the beginning of me loving 8am??!!


HATES baggy jeans tucked into boots




ok people, so CLEARLY the look this season is jeans/leggings/tights/whatever you've got tucked into boots- but that does not mean that ALL JEANS are meant (made) to be tucked into boots. GEEEZZZEEEEE.

you cannot be tucking baggy jeans into your boots! you'll look like a chimney sweep!! or someone from the time period where they wore pantaloons... you know what i'm saying??

ok, here's cameron totally casually rockin' what the desired look is to be:



now, it's ok to not be wearing skin tight jeans. usually, too tight pants are going to be capable of looking worse than too loose pants... but tucked into boots is one of the few cases, where you're going to look a lot less less attractive (you followin' me?) if your pants fall on the too tight side of the scale rather than the too loose.

and besides, the worst part is that everyone doing this is walking around thinking they're looking all super-fly because they got the hottest boots this season, but REALLY they're just screaming out that they don't ACTUALLY know what the fashion dilly is because they're wearing the RIGHT TRENDS ALL WRONG.

which, i think, is even worse, because they clearly CARE... but are failing. (as opposed to the woman in white tennis shoes over her panty-hose power walking during lunch. she just don't care. more power (walkin) to her.)

EXCEPTION TO THE RULE: going to work. why? because no one wears super tight pants in a business professional or business casual environment at work, but many people need to wear boots to work. AND I MEAN TO WORK. as in, commuting. not AT WORK. better not take my ish out of context people!

more importantly why is it OK? because i do it, so i have to say it's ok. pshhhhh. that's right. i write the blog, i write the rules. DEAL WIT IT.

again, this is one of the (rare... i hope) cases where function trumps fashion.

i knowwww. i said it. don't flog me fashionistas!!!!

loves it / hates it

love that halle berry proves she's not preggers by looking smokin' hott.



hate that because high wasted jeans are making a comeback people might think these are OK...

if you are wearing these, you're adding bulk to your lower tummy area, and creating all the wrong proportions!! stop making yourself less attractive by getting a DARK WASH great fitting pair jeans, first and foremost, and then the most universal flattering shape is a TROUSER JEAN that is fitted around the thigh, then just floats down through the rest of your leg- making you look loooong and lean!



ok, so obviously this model is a size PPHHH YEAH RIGHT, but SRSLY, these jeans are really flattering!!! this particular pair is from shopbop.com but trouser jeans are everywhere- i even found a few great pairs on sale at oldnavy.com for as little at $9.99!!

if you ever watch what not to wear, this is like, the FIRST thing they change every time... AND it's so easy to do! one little change that takes 10 years and 10 pounds off... why would NOT you make this switch?!?!?!

change your jeans to SMYLA and go from a mom with a FUPA* to a MILF* in 2.5 seconds flat.


*if you aren't familiar with these terms, feel free to email me... heh heh.
