Celeb What Not to Wear: Diamond Costume

March 09, 2009

Apparently, Diamonds are Paris Hilton's new Best Friend Forever.

But they appear to be just another frienemy, not doing her any justice.

Post this to your *don't board* and remember: keep it classy & less flashy.

And don't have multiple birthday parties a year (which number one is this?).

The socialite even manages to downgrade her Fendi baguette by association. Le Sigh.

Ella's Dress Design for & Inspired by Barbie

March 09, 2009
Ella Mode
for Barbie
My dress design is inspired by a micture of Barbie's waist/hip figure - of a tiny waist and sudden hips but no thights - and also the early 90's McDonald's Happy Meal mini Barbie Dolls with snap on clothing. My top is form-fitted like the plastic shirts from those toys.

She's a Barbie Girl, and It's Her World Today

March 09, 2009

Today is Barbie's 50th birthday, and boy girl is she everywhere. Did you know that Barbie's on Twitter and Facebook AND has her own blog?

Happy B-Day B!

Vote on Ella's Short Hairstyle Pick (Eva Longoria's)

March 09, 2009

This is more of a simple yea or nea on one style for a new cut I want to get. I haven't found many celebrity hair cut photos that I actually like for myself.

My very long hair can be unruly and difficult to manage, and my boyfriend's totally fine with a short hair style (he also just thinks I'm cute with it up). I've recently been intrigued by Katie Holmes's Glamour cover, but her 'do just doesn't quite "cut it" for me. Har har.

I want something easy to style that doesn't require curls to look its best, something still feminine although short and something stylish and elegant.

This is my first pick. First as in, first thing I've found, and only for now. Please vote!

WHAT THE Fug?! Hint: Costume

March 09, 2009

This *costume* has a serious case of identity crisis.

To quote the title of this monstrosity, "Complete Bearded Oysters Costume for Big Boobie-d Dancers".

Ella thinks it need be a lot less complete.

Oh, but that's not all -- apparently it's a thing. Like some inside clique-y thing. And there are coordinating panties. With pubic hair. On the panties. (And how a mannequin gets camel toe is an odd thing, but it's there, too.)


I feel bad every time I must (must) make fun of something handmade. Apologies to craftsperson, Miss Katrina. (As seen on Etsy.)

Note; this is in good fun, and I know this costume serves a special purpose to the designer and others, and hopefully this post will bring useful exposure.
