Emma Roberts at Teen Choice Awards

f1bf5feaf72444a8_Emma-Roberts

Is it me, or do 15 year old girls of Hollywood begin to look increasingly like 35 year old streetwalkers? Look at the teen favorite Miley Cyrus, for example, at Teen Choice Awards, strangely enough sporting a cross dangling on her neck and ears, while wearing a very short skirt, and proceding to dance with a pole during the show…definitely not looking like a teenager that she is. And there’s more of them, Ali Lohan and Cyrus’ younger sister spring to mind.

So it’s a really nice treat to finally see a young woman dressing appropriately for her age, looking fresh-faced and…yes, young. Is it because of her famous aunt? Is it the upbringing? Will she become another Lohan with age? Hope not.

So above is Emma Roberts at last night’s Teen Choice Awards, looking amazing in a modern, stylish, and not at all hoochie outfit. Compare and contrast.

What I’m Wearing: Twin Dressing

jo and i

What I’d like to know is how often does this happen to you??? Because it happens to Jo and I all the time! I mean, a lot! If you’re thinking whether this was intentional – no it wasn’t. I mean who decides to wear a bright orange dress to work??? We do! On any given day, chances are, Jo and I will at least have the same earrings, similar belt, or the exact same outfit. Sometimes we even decide to do silly things to our makeup on the same day (blue mascara on a casual Friday)! I can think of at least 5 instances or us wearing nearly identical outfits…It’s not that weird if you take into account the fact that we shop at mostly same stores, and have a similar style. But this often? It’s starting to freak me out! I’ll try to take pics of all the items that we wear that are similar or the same and keep track of our twin dressing here.

So tell me, do you and your friends dress alike?

REDRUM at Barneys

2009_07_barneysshot2

With the flailing economy, it seems companies will literally do anything to catch shoppers’ eyes to get them into their stores. Barneys New York E. 61st St. store took sayings “dressed to kill” and “wouldn’t be caught dead in it” a little (a lot?) too literally with their dead mannequin window displays. The mannequins dressed in Helmut Lang and A.L.C. dresses are shown in disturbing poses, arms flapping about, blood spattered on the inside of windows, looking as if they are fending off an attacker. Whoever genius idea this was, will soon surely find him/herself looking for another gig, as Simon Doonan, Barneys creative director who seemed to be unaware of the bloody mess, said that the windows crossed the line and ordered them dismantled almost immediately. What do you think? Are these windows creative or offensive? Or both?

One more bloody pic after the jump.

Bruno in Madrid

No, this is not www.brunoblog.ca and yes, I am slightly obsessed with Bruno at the moment, but only because I think he’s incredible! How does this man get into character like this??? My mom genuinely believes that Sacha is gay. Not Bruno, Sacha. And that’s the amazing thing about Sacha Baron Cohen! He is convincing! He is Bruno when he’s promoting; he waxes and tans all over, and wears glittery lipgloss, and a bull outfit with some very interesting frontal bits to a premiere in Madrid, and yes, he does look and act very much like Bruno! But according to Dan Mazer, his co-writer and friend, that’s how Sacha Baron Cohen works – extremely method. So extreme, that he hasn’t washed his Borat suit for 6 years! Imagine how that smells! And that is why I love him! Some will disagree, but to me, Sacha is a comedic genius! I just really hope that the movie is as funny as everyone expects it to be. I hope it’s funnier than The Hangover. He deserves every bit of success that he gets!

Bruno Everywhere

Sacha Baron Cohen has been hitting the media circus hard. Just like with Borat, he continues to attend premieres in full character. This time it was Bruno in Paris, wearing glittery ledderhosen. Al is in Paris right now! I wonder if she saw him!? Would’ve made my summer!

In other Bruno news, GQ needs to quit the publishing game, because this is the best cover they will ever have, so why go on? July 10th cannot come soon enough!

Bits and pieces

Heather Graham has a great body! But this dress, this dress is trying too hard. If the fabric moves just a couple of inches, everyone and their grandma will be able to see what some of us really don’t want to see, and that is a pantiless Heather Graham in a ripped dress. I mean, even if that’s just nude lining, the whole suggestion of exposing your front and rear bits like this is all sorts of tacky? As I said, trying way too hard. And didn’t she play a stripper/hooker in The Hangover too? Still in character?

MTV Movie Awards Mit Bruno

bruno mtv

So, apparently Eminem got all huffy and puffy last night at the MTV Movie Awards after Bruno’s backside landed on the rapper’s face. Of all the people to be offended by this little stunt, Eminem should not be one, seeing how he always makes fun of celebs in his songs. Get a freaking sense of humor!

And really, anyone should be so lucky to have a gorgeous assless-chaps-wearing-angel like Bruno fall on them from the sky. He was by far the most elegant creature to walk the red carpet this past Sunday. And definitely the only one worth mentioning.

A rare tulip

It was cold in Ottawa last weekend. Definitely not cold enough to wear a duvet! She obviously didn’t think so. 

Question: would you rather be caught wearing a Disney (Little Mermaid, Rescue Rangers, etc, pick one) duvet, or have straw instead of hair? Hmmm…
