Another female is copycatting BritBrit's ways! Pink performed in a completely nude-colored outfit donned with rhinestones and what seems to be masking tape all over her body last week in Seattle.
First of all... I'm just going to say it. Britney did this whole nude-suit plus rhinestones thing the best. No one is going to top her.
On another note... Pink completely trumps Heidi Montag.
I don't understand the random white stripes, though. It really does look like the outfit started to rip so they threw some masking tape in random places just to hold it all together.
I want to say this is absolutely ridiculous and hideous and stupid and WTF PINK?!?! ....But I know that she puts on an amazing show that I have yet to see, so I will refrain from saying such things.
She probably needs to talk to Lady Gaga before the weirdo freaks out because she didn't come up with this outfit first.
After my Olympics-themed outfits challenge, I decided I wanna start giving myself more challenges. It makes it so I actually put myself together on a daily basis, plus it's fun!
So for the next 10 days, I'm doing nothing but Pinterest-inspired [pinspired! neat!] outfits. I've pinned so manyto my board, but rarely get dressed/use the inspiration. Not anymore, folks! [Yeah, I just called you a folk.. get over it.]
Day #1: Pink jeans and stripes... and some b-e-a-utiful pinspirations, too!
[Original pins on the left, of course!]
The colors are a little different, but so is the price! The original outfit was $297. I spent $5 on the tank and $13 on the jeans from Forever 21, and $8 on the sandals from GoJane. Add in the earrings for $2 compared to their necklace for over $9000, and I'd say I got a deal!
Double eyeliner! I used blue stila eyeliner that I got from Birchbox, and LA Splash liquid liner in "Dead Sea" for $6. If it wasn't summer and I wasn't lazy, I probably would have used some eye shadow, too.
I didn't do different colors, but I did try the colored tips using tape. I never pretend to be great at this stuff, so don't expect those nails to look perfect. Especially considering I don't have the patience to do these fun nail polish tricks that I love. It IS pretty easy to do without perfection and with a little patience for layers to dry, though!
I know, I know... I need to take better pictures. Silly me forgot to charge my camera before heading to the station, so I had no choice but to take awkward pictures of myself in the bathroom.
BUT... super simple outfit, super cheap, and I'll totally wear this combo again.
My schedule has been nothing less than crazy busy lately, so getting dressed happens very quickly. Luckily, I had the great idea of trying this tank on its own.
-bracelet from BlueLans and necklace was a gift. Earrings from a beach shop
I really do love those shoes, but the whole swing-back style is so painful on my achilles. Am I the only one who struggles with them?! Luckily I carry some tan athletic tape in my purse, so I normally fold up some toilet paper then tape it on to the back of my ankle.
It's so simple, but I really did love it. That tank is hella comfortable and I'm so glad my friend didn't want it anymore.
It was a little spur of the moment, but I decided to do another holiday edition of What Ya Wearin for Valentine's Day! Without it being the "norm," I love that I still got submissions!
@Siarrahhh was all fancy-dancy for her lunch date! Red dresses= always a win.
LOVE @abaker1804's like pink and white with simple, pretty jewelry!
@jannashepherd did these nails herself with "tape for the bottom V and a steady hand!" I've never seen a more perfect heart.
@RomulaLynn's always fancy nails were a little Valentine's Day inspired! Check out the Sweethearts nail!
And welcome @eewerner to the bunch! Love the striped shirt and boots! [And the Rt 66 sign in the back!]
Since I spent my Valentine's Day at a pet store [Slutty might be getting herself a new live-in boyfriend! more on that later...], and the studio, I didn't get too decked out.
-sheer shirt from F21 for $5
-jeans from F21 for $10
-boots from Charming Charlies $5
-black stud earrings from Charlotte < $1
And yeah, did another day of sock bun because if I'm being honest, I still haven't washed my hair since Tuesday and I don't feel bad about it.
I guess we'll be making this a habit! For every holiday, plan on sending me your outfits! You're too beautiful not to!
I was sitting here updating my iTunes and making CDs and decided to research the "official" songs of Summer 2009. I found a couple lists, but none seemed to be very updated.
This are the Top 5 songs that are played on the radio this season from Rhapsody:
LoveGame--> Lady Gaga
Waking Up in Vegas--> Katy Perry
1901--> Phoenix
Don't Trust Me--> 3OH!3
Hot Revolver--> Lil Wayne
These are the top songs according to People Magazine:
I can't 100% agree with any of these lists. Somewhat-working in radio gives me the knowledge of the 5 songs you're guaranteed to hear every hour:
Halo--> Beyonce
Don't Trust Me--> 3OH!3
That's Not My Name--> Ting Tings
I Gotta Feeling and/or Boom Boom Pow--> Black Eyed Peas
LoveGame--> Lady Gaga
and Taylor Swift.. Whether it be Love Story or You Belong With Me
Now, because you care and like to know my opinion, I shall come up with my own list of top songs for Summer 2009. [This is based on a combination of good representation of what we have heard AND great songs.]
Honorable Mention: When Love Takes Over--> Kelly Rowland and David Guetta A lot of people probably don't agree with me, but if you ever go to McFadden's in DC [like I do every Friday night] then you'll hear this song and magically transport to this super-fun place and hear everyone banging on the walls to the beat.
10. Don't Trust Me--> 3OH!3 "Do the Helen Keller, and talk with your hiiiiiiiips." How can you not think of this summer when you hear that line? It's on repeat everywhere I go. [The line, that is.. Not the entire song.]
9. Goodbye--> Kristinia DeBarge Unfortunately this song didn't play on the radio enough, I don't think. This girl is great, and it's a great song and should have been blasted constantly. That's really the only explanation I have.
8. Waking Up in Vegas--> Katy Perry A song about going out, getting plastered, and waking up in the morning like WTF. The definition of summer? Plus, it's Katy Perry. She had the #2 song of last summer and she's undeniable.
7. Good Girls Go Bad--> Cobra Starship ft. Leighton Meester This song is coming into play at the end of the summer, but it's a good, up-beat song to get you pumped up. Add in the rumor/pictures of Leighton, the Gossip Girl star, having a sex tape, and you got yourself a song worth talking about and listening to.
6. Sideways--> Dierks Bentley I love country songs in the summer. There's nothing better than driving down the highway, windows down, blasting country music and singing at the top of your lungs. Another song about going out and drinking, with a good sound-- A++.
5. LoveGame--> Lady Gaga Like Katy Perry, she's irresistible. I don't know that there is going to be a time where we don't have a Gaga song on constant rotation at the radio stations anytime soon. People love 'em all. Add in a girl taking a ride on a disco stick and well... It's a nice raunchy song that kids won't understand.
4. Out Last Night--> Kenny Chesney Kenny Chesney is the definition of summertime right up there with Jimmy Buffet. Like I said before- Songs about going out are also the definition of summertime. Two definitions in one?! Shoot... It's a no-brainer!
3. Boom Boom Pow/I Gotta Feeling--> Black Eyed Peas Going an hour at the beginning of the summer without hearing Boom Boom Pow would have been a miracle... Now that's the case with I Gotta Feeling. The best part about it: I still love both of the songs!
2. The Way You Make Me Feel--> Michael Jackson Let's be real for a second... Michael Jackson IS this summer. His death was the most tragic day of the summer, and to this day everyone is still talking about him, his death, his scandals, whatever they're digging up at the moment. This is my favorite song of his.
1. Summer Nights--> Rascal Flatts Does this really need an explanation? It's called Summer Nights. It's by Rascal Flatts. The lyrics are fantastic, the beat is super fun, and it won't ever get old! It's the title of my playlist for all of these songs, and the lyrics are the titles of all my Facebook photo albums for these couple of months. Love, love, love it, and you better agree!
What would you add?! How would your list go?! Add it below, or vote for your faves! I'll post the results on Thursday to bring back the day of Top 10's.
Rihanna is on tour in Europe right now and is putting on quite the show, it looks like.
Here were some of her outfits in the Netherlands this past weekend:
Seems like she's channeling her inner Lady Gaga, right?!
Maybe it's just a new trend. Maybe everyone is trying to go all weird and outrageous and unpredictable....
But knowing that Rihanna came on to the scene a completely different person, and seeing that she's taking a lot of looks of others' and putting them into her show, I'd say she's in a bit of an identity crisis or something.
Is she trying to be in the Mickey Mouse Club? It's a little late...
Too bad we can't see more of what the design was that was lighting up... I'm sure it had to have some meaning... right?!
I'm not hating on her. I'm totally rooting for her. I just feel like she needs to start having her own image or something. Everything keeps changing and nothing ever seems "right."
Maybe I'm wrong, but let's be honest... The proof is there. Homegirl is trying to find herself and is having a little trouble with the creativity aspect.
