Grey Days Again!
What is it with grey this year?!? We had a bunch of it in the spring, and heck if it’s not back in full force now! All over the place; at premieres, club openings, and even at an Oscar’s preview jewelry show, the girls were out showing off their grey… or is it gray?!? I’m a fan of ‘grey’, so bear with me, as there are no rules about the correct spelling of grey!!! If it’s your name, you can choose. Otherwise, it’s all up to the user! And these clothing choices prove it in the way they switch fabrics and styles from girl to girl. Go Grey, Girl!
Anna Sophia Robb looks like she’s growing up in this still-girly strapless grey dress! Despite the fact that it is the middle of winter in the northern hemisphere, most of our girls are wearing rather flirty spring-y dress styles! I guess the coat check is right before the red carpet!
Jayne Wisnener, who you might recognize as the young ingénue Joanna in the musical film “Sweeney Todd” is shown here at her premiere in London. Now we KNOW it’s cold there, so the girl is very brave in this short and strapless number, that is daring also in it’s asymmetrical front hem and slip hemline! Yep! It looked like that in every picture, so it’s not just a static cling issue! And why not? The slip is every bit as pretty as the over material!
A few of our ‘grey girls’ were at the same party in Hollywood, showing jewels to the stars in hopes that they will wear them to any one of the awards shows coming up in Hollywood. Jennifer Love Hewitt showed up in a romantic chiffon number that let her look her lovely self, whether or not she’s a size 4!
Also on hand was Sarah Jane Morris, looking much more in the season with her wool sheath dress – such the elegant and classic look! The red belt and shoes ties the look together, without making it look like a school girl uniform!
Molly Simms managed to go grey and sparkly in this very sixties choice while partying up in Vegas! Now relax, people! She’s there to accept the keys to the city for her role on the hit TV show “Las Vegas”! Nothing fishy going on here!
And finally, your girl and mine, Miley heats up her very own concert film premiere with a dress in many shades of grey!!! Bravo to Miley for letting herself wear the sparkles and fashion for once, and not leaving all the fun for Hannah!
And you thought grey was just for the older ladies in the crowd! Pshaw! Now, get out there, and find the grey that’s makes everyone say “Hey!”

A Season of White!
The New Year’s and Christmas party season seemed to have a signature sparkle this year, and an awful lot of white! Many of our celebrity fashionistas were busy hosting parties in Las Vegas this year, and the more stylish among them went for winter white to help them stand out from the crowd. What do you think of the ladies homage to snow?!?
Beyonce hosted the opening of Jay-Z’s new nightclub in this super classy, sparkly, lacey and white number! Her hair is big and going in a ‘natural’ direction (only the luckiest of us get that to happen completely naturally!). It’s a successful outfit to compliment her successful man. So very NOT Vegas! We likey!
Young star Ashley Leggat was seen at just about every party in Vegas, and here are a few of her holiday looks for the outing! Their unifying theory? Short and shiny! Ashley looks sweet, but we think she can do without the overly flirty poses, and just let the dresses work! If she can tone down the posing, maybe some of the bigger designers will take notice and start throwing her some of the truly kewl clothes!
and another look from Ashley
Mariah Carey was also hosting a party, and wore this little number… and I do mean little! It’s cute, she wears it well, but…I do wish there was a little more to it! The whole ‘white = purity’ vibe is all shot to heck when there’s so little fabric in the mix! Hey Mariah! We can probably guess at what a cute figure you have, EVEN if you leave a little more to our imagination! Trust us!
And for the winner and loser of the season, and both at the same party: The Hilton sisters! Nicky is wearing the de rigueur white frock, and very tastefully, we might add! Not too much given away, sleek and stylish, and a good fit to her more reserved personality. And then there’s Paris… wearing (of all things!) a super Technicolor, super spangly “Je (heart) Paris” or “I love me!) dress! It’s like her parents went to Paris, and all they got her was this far too expensive designer cocktail dress version of a bad T-shirt! After much consideration, we guess this is ALSO a very GOOD FIT…considering the wearer! More of a “WWST”, if we are truly asked!
Well, get out your winter white, before the storm has passed, and be on the look out as fabulous red carpet award show gowns head our way! I wonder if the actors picketing the Golden Globes will be well dressed?!?
