Those tights!















Let's start this posting properly. I am not a fan of Jessica Alba's style. It's easy enough to throw a draped scarf around an outfit to add an instant dash of chic. It's not rocket science. It does not make one stylish. Anyhoo, back to the outfit at hand, worn to last night's Costume Institute Ball at The Met.

THOSE TIGHTS. THAT HAIR. THE JEWELS. No. No! NO! It's like when you were a kid and took the heads off your barbies but put them back on the wrong bodies really quickly before your mom noticed and yelled at you. Now imagine she took a different route with the same dress...

1. bare legs
2. less-is-more hair. up or down and pushed back is fine. just lose the braid.
3. modern geometric earrings. those emeralds would be more appropriate with a gown. they're gorgeous but with that dress?
4. sheer lipstick.

The moral of this story? Less is more!
