Coco Oh No No.

This morning I woke up to see that Perez Hilton, famed gossip blogger, had launched his own fashion blog. Don't get me wrong, I am definitely addicted to his website and celebrity gossip in general. But, he isn't exactly someone whose commentary on fashion I was dying to know.

He boasts in a new interview that his new blog will eventually have more readers than Vogue. Personally, I don't see it happening. His ventures outside of his gossip blog so far haven't seemed all that successful. (Maybe I'm mistaken.) Expanding your empire isn't quite the same if you have one project going strong and a few other fledgling ones.

You should definitely check out the blog to form your own opinions, and of course let me know what you think. After viewing the blog it was pretty much what could be expected. It is written exactly like his gossip blog, and it doesn't exactly work for fashion (to me anyway). Titles like "Kate Moss Turns On The Granny Seks..." don't suggest respectable fashion blog.

Thoughts?

Keep Your Dog Away.

I mostly just lazed around today, but in the afternoon I went for a manicure with my mom. I didn't have a color in mind when I went in, but I quickly found and decided on My Chihuahua Bites! The color is a shimmer free, glossy shade that is extremely bright and fun. None of the images I found through google truly resembled the shade. When I tried to take a photo of my nails in the photobooth program on my computer, my nails ended up looking more orange. In reality the color is a great gross between reddish pink and coral. It's definitely one of those things you've just got to see in real life, on your nails. Anyway, I'm really happy with the color. There isn't any place nearby where I live that sells OPI polishes, but I might have to make a point to buy this one.

You Kill Me.

If anything could manage to make me less skeptical about black lips, it would be this.

Didn't Want To Do This To You.

I try not to talk about celebrity style too often because it has been done so often, and I know I already did it a little yesterday, but that isn't exactly what this post is. Kristen Bell is in fact styled by the same woman responsible for Rachel Bilson's red carpet looks, so its obvious I'd like her style. But besides that, Kristen is one of my favorite celebrities. I first caught on to her when I became an avid fan of her series Veronica Mars, and I've followed her since them. (I even sat through many unbearable episodes of Heroes.) She comes off as very down to earth, and always comes off as being very funny, which is why if I had the chance to be friends with any celebrity, I'd choose her. Who would you choose, and why?

Choo-Choo Choose You.

The Teen Choice Awards air tonight, but the results have already been released. Selena Gomez won for her red carpet style, immediately leading to me googling 'Selena Gomez red carpet'. Do you think this was a deserved award? I think there are clearly people more deserving of the award, but based on all the tweens voting, the results make sense. And to give her some credit, she is a lot better dressed than some other teen sensations. Her style doesn't exactly push the boundaries, but this green dress is pretty cute, right?

And I think I actually am quite fond of this polka-dotted creation.

In other Teen Choice Awards news, Leighton Meester won for choice actress on a drama. I was happy she won, and I definitely think she was more deserving compared to Blake Lively (also nominated). Blake seems to get a lot more attention, but I prefer Leightion (and Blair). What do you think about Leighton vs. Blake?

I've Got An Urge.

I am currently craving a pair of fabulous boots for fall.

Quote Me To Me.

I had an obligation today so most of my Saturday was wasted. Now, I am just watching Speak (it has been quite a while since I first saw the movie) on Lifetime and relaxing the rest of my day away. Anyway, the point is, my dull day didn't quite inspire a brilliant post about fashion.

So, you'll have to settle for a (brilliant) quote. Thoughts/opinions?
