STUFFED..and im not talking about my belly.

if you are anything like me or hoda kotb...then you can relate to us a little bit when it comes to our wallets (if that’s even what you can call it). after watching the HIGHlarious segment on the today show with hoda and jimmy fallon, I decided that I am too a hoarder when it comes to my wallet. I recently decided to clean out hobo wallet(I guess that’s my excuse for the clutter, just trying to let my wallet live up to its name-just a sac with everything in) I was desperately hoping to find maybe a $20 bill hidden amongst the clutter -however I did not.wompwomp. im pretty sure there was a whole tree in my wallet-I found a million gas station receipts, cafe metro receipts(my nyc morning stop), tickets to the mets game, and many more stuff to non-refundable items- so why was I saving those receipts? I DO NOT KNOW. however my beautiful wallet is now sleek, slim,and thin(I think maybe I was keeping all those receipts to overcompensate for the lack of green in my wallet)!!

I decided that this was my new year’s resolution-to clean our my wallet and make my life filled with less clutter (it’s not even the end of jan and I have already accomplished my resolution)- I feel like that’s cheating a little bit- but who cares!!

 so I have found some cute and affordable wallets that you too care de-clutter you life and wallet..

michelle'o?

{McQueen at the State Dinner}

dress to impress she is.the red might have been chosen as symbol of good luck for the Chinese culture, however the designer choice might have been chosen to impress a few certain fashion icons who attended the state dinner, such as vera wang and the ms.ana wintour herself.all eyes were on the first lady, whose impact on the global fashion industry is unrivaled. the pant suits age worn by the first lady retired with the exit of the bush's.(THANK YOU-for both!!).with the 50th anniversary of the kennedy's, i believe "michelle'o" is bringing back the glamorous days of the first lady and showing off her rockin body too!

 

here are some of my other favorite looks that michelle stopped traffic with...

{on a romantic date with her hubby}

{Sparkling in Jason Wu at the 2009 Inauguration Ball}

nothing GOLDEN about this event.

The time of year has arrived again -it's AWARDS SEASON folks. however to me no one really cares about the awards, it’s really just all about who is wearing what, who is bringing who (or sleeping with), and who succeeded at starving themselves the best....SO after watching the Golden Globes this past weekend - I have to say i feel like most of the celebs’ stylist either took the night off or failed their clients miserably. So instead of showing off my favorite looks for the night- I thought I’d shake things up a little bit and take a few of the nights’ looks and show how I thought they could have been done better....

Emma Stone in Calvin Klein

when I first saw this dress on tv-i knew exactly that the wonderful mr.calvin klein had designed it. however I did not know who was in it. I soon learned later that her name was emma stone. don’t get me wrong I think this dress is as beautiful as she is-but you can’t just stop at the dress! it’s a complete look you are trying to achieve and to me her jewelry falls short and fails at completing the "im a young hollywood actress and don’t have to try too hard to be gorgeous"...


so what would i do differently you ask???

1. change the color of the dress (peachy color dress does not enhance peachy color skin with golden locks) it only turns you into a peachy blob!!
2. add some color (I would first start off with some playful turquiose earrings or some gaudy emerald vintage earrings)
3. jazz it up a notch with some sparkling gold and rhinestone bangles
4. YOU'RE DONE- you now have achieved the young hollywood look but making it a little more exciting and fun!

SOOO emma, keep in mind that being a minmalist only works if you are as stunning as angelina jolie and im pretty sure you have a lot more years, working out, and kids to add to your list until you acheive her stature.


Natalie Portman in Viktor and Rolf

it seemed like everyone was dddyyying to see how ms.portman or should i say soon to be mrs.millepied was goin to show off her baby bump and to me she definately showed it off but in the completely wrong way and she even gave herself a rear bump too(not so ghetto-fab).
so what would i do differently you ask??

1.wear an actual dress and not show up in your asian silk robe
2.I would have definitely worn a sweetheart shaped dress with a flowing bottom(she's got a bump but not a big enough one for it to be cute and shown, it could be sadly mistaken for a food baby at this stage in the game)
3.add some dainty, sophisticated earrings that scream “im a mom to be”
4.YOU'RE DONE-kick off your heels and get some sleep while you can.


Sooo mrs. millepiede we all get it- your every guys dream girl, you went to an ivy league school, your just so naturally pretty...yada yada yada..but next time you get dress for an award show remember to do yourself justice and actually put on a gown bc we all know there’s nothing more a man likes than a hot mom to be.




Christina Hendricks in Romana Kaveza

speechless.


what would i do differently you ask??


1.pick a different color!!! any color just please not a shade of red.
2.stay away from putting huge ruffles that look as if something is attacking/growing on your neck
3.tame down the volume
4.YOU'RE DONE just make sure the only thing you see red that night is the carpet you are walking on


sooo ms.hendricks, you really out did yourself this time.as if your fiery and teased out tresses weren't enough you had to go and add some ruby red lipstick to match your mean one shoulder red dress.ENOUGHA ALREADY.we get it- you're a ginger and your embracing it to the fullest- but see we dont all wanna embrace it with you. so next time,just add some other colors to your life that enchance the inner (i mean outer ginger in you) and i promise you will rock that curvy, sexy figure of yours great!


Ricky Gervais in Ellen DeGenres

no complaints here from me. you were one of the few who nailed it that night. I wish you would come back ever year, seeing the celebs squirm in their seats or their awful comebacks at you make me giggle and keep me entertained in between all the dull celebrity speeches.

back to life. back to reality.

after a long hiatus, im back in action. i would like to tell you that i have been on some exotic island soaking up some rays, or checking some ski lift passes while i find myself in j-hole, or even my life has been so busy with so many cool projects i didnt have time to "blog" but nope-none of those are the reasons to my brain freeze. but its now 2011 and im ready for a fresh start.so cheers to the new year and a new sign. I WILL ALWAYS BE A GEMINI!!!
