how do you say it in your own words..

When we thought that since you have been much of a trainwreck in many ways than one, we expected you to rise up and begin it with your strongest asset–your manufactured sense of style.

But did your bunch of stylists do more time in rehab than you? Because no self-proclaimed stylist would ever let you go out looking like this.

The gown, to the say the least, bore me to comatose.

One observer said:

It (the dress) looks like the loser of the "create a dress for the trapeze artist" challenge on Project Runway.

I am never going to say that–only out of fear of sounding unoriginal.

But I agree just the same. It was my line, only someone had seen you earlier.

fish is "it"

After Marion Cotillard recieved her Oscar in this scaly, fish-inspired gown, many  followed her.

Gwyneth had a more literal take on the fish motif as hers had a flowing net behind her.

 
Christina Ricci had been to the fish section lately too.  

Filipino designer Cary Santiago had also interpretations done.

who smirks on short skirts?

To answer the question above. No, I don’t.

Gwyneth Paltrow is making enough noise in the fashion department that I need to go to the movies to check if IronMan is her extended runway in sashaying around with her gorgeous little dresses.  

One fashion observer says that Gwyneth’s insecurity is behind her recent bold outings and even quoted lines from her British GQ interview:

"Paltrow admits she suffers from a lack of confidence…she is desperate to change her public image…’People think I’m aloof, or cold, or that I breathe rarefied air - that’s not me’." So what exactly turned the former It Girl into a Debbie Downer?…"People came over to watch me in the film Emma and I was like, ‘Oh. My. God. I’m the worst actress ever.’"

 If there is ever truth in that observation, why am I still in my jeans?

donatella versace smirks on hillary’s wardrobe

"Hillary should wear Versace — a dress, not trousers. She doesn’t need to wear trousers to show she’s strong."

She further added that she likes Mrs. Clinton and wanted to get rid of Bush.  Nice.

And if we are to see this enormous smirk as Donatella’s sign of disapproval, we are on our way to burn all those pantsuits. Immediately.

In the Philippines, we have the smirk and the pantsuit in one small package.

ploning is showing in your favorite cinemas

If you are out of the Philippines, you have all the reasons to skip this one beautiful film. But if you happen to be in this crises-stricken country, please take time to watch.

I am listing the reasons why I should go to the cinema  today.

1. It stars the redoubtable Judy Ann Santos. 

2. She is turning 30 and this film is her gift to the movie-going public.

Anyone who turns 30 becomes unreasonably emotional about things (I should know).  Do not hurt her by making this a flop!

3. It is well-budgeted. The cast and crew even waived talent fees to make this endeavor.

4. They have excellent photography. (Look at the gorgeous  pics!)

5. It has a very arresting trailer.

6. Star Cinema, a giant outfit with the best media arm, is wanting to crush this film (created by people who has genuine love for the art) and Judy Ann by sharing the same playdate with their well-publicized movie.

(We always are behind the underdog!) 

GO Team Ploning!

fashionistas had a field day at the iron man premiere

Gwyneth Paltrow is resurrecting herself fashion-wise with the fiercest outfits. The best in her closet were all flaunted while Iron Man is promoted worldwide. We are just singling this out.

what do you feel about this?

When we know that Megan McCain is too busy campaigning for his father, John McCain, she might have hoped that we will understand her coming to a dinner in the White House looking like this.

The gown needs serious pressing.

There are so many things that we want to say about this picture. All of it are unkind.

If you look like you took some really good sleep lying face down in your limousine, at least do not pose like this before the cameras.

You look like you are about to pass gas or hiding a bloated stomach.

It is not, in anyway, near fashionable. Or even acceptable.

precious adona for fhm may 2008

The blog is going the way of Nudeness.

And no one should be complaining.

FHM cover for their recent issue is Precious Adona.

The Be-Bench modelling contestant  will soon star in a Viva-produced movie, Torotot.

It’s a different case with Miley Cyrus.

And do not complain about double standards. It does not always apply.

oh no again, miley!

Attempts to look and act older than ones’s age were best exemplified by Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan.

Lohan’s famous take on looking like Marilyn Monroe did not give her favorable feedback.

But Lohan had history of delinquence so we give up.

 After apologizing over her green bra stunt, Miley Cyrus disrobed and gossip is running that she has topless shot inside the latest Vanity Fair issue. 

To think, that there is so much life before her, Hannah Montana is seemingly tired of being a teenager and would rush to becoming a woman. And an unlikely woman at that.
