Celebrity Fashion Faux Pas

She has been named to several Best-Dressed lists, but this time actress Cameron Diaz has committed a major fashion faux pas (at least in the eyes of Peruvians). The actress was recently photographed carrying an olive green messenger bag emblazoned with a red star and the words “Serve the People” printed in Chinese on the flap while she was touring landmarks in Peru. For those of you who aren’t well versed in Peruvian history the saying printed on the actress’s bag was perhaps Chinese Communist leader Mao’s most famous political slogan. And it was the Peruvians who suffered decades of … Continue reading

Fashion Disaster: Lady in Red Times Four… Oh My!!

It’s every female’s worst nightmare—showing up to a formal event wearing the same dress as another guest. If you think that’s bad consider this TRUE story about that very predicament happening to three women and the party’s famous hostess at a much-publicized event. The Kennedy Center Honors is regarded as one of Washington’s biggest nights for stars, and glamorous fashion. Last Sunday hundreds of socialites turned out in their designer gowns at the exclusive White House reception that goes with the ceremony. But, the buzz around the room wasn’t about the night’s big honorees; rather chatter centered around a single … Continue reading

Silly Bandz for Parents

While I often drool over her fab wardrobe and to-die-for bank account, there is something I absolutely, positively don’t envy about mega-celeb parent Sarah Jessica Parker—-her obsession for Silly Bandz. Talk about a fashion faux pas. What’s a good-looking, highly successful, Hollywood heavyweight like SJP trying to prove by appearing in public wearing wacky neon-colored plastic bracelets that are a must-have for the 10 and under crowd? Apparently, the super celeb mom has a son who is part of the Silly Bandz cult, so now she too is covering her forearms with the cheap rubber band bracelets shaped like zoo … Continue reading

Juicy Hollywood Tidbits – June 25, 2007

Cameron Diaz’s Purse Faux Pas Poor Cameron Diaz…she just wanted to be fashionable. But her purse caused quite a stir in Peru. Cameron unknowingly carried a purse that offended the citizens of the country while she was in Machu Picchu. Her purse was olive green with a red star and had the Chinese words for “Serve the People” written on it. Turns out those words are a reminder of the Maoist Shining Path insurgency. This insurgency by the communist party of Peru during the late 80s/early 90s resulted in almost 70,000 losing their lives in massacres and bombings. It is … Continue reading

How I Became Susie’s Mom

Susie was my best friend in school. We were very close. I spent a lot of time at her house and knew her mom and dad well. They were great parents to her, good role models for me, and I especially enjoyed her mother’s company. Mrs. Wilson was a petite woman, who put on a few pounds over the years, making her appear short and plump. She was rather frumpy in appearance and most certainly reached a point in her life where she dressed only for comfort. Susie and I were fashionable; in tune with the styles of the day … Continue reading
