Academy Awards 2012

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Billy Crystal came back to host and give us a presumably good show (mediocre in reality, not bad but not exciting). The Artist won. Jean Dujardin won. Meryl won. Christopher Plummer won. Octavia won. What else do we need to know? Who wore what! Of course. The gowns! The glam! The gah, what was she [...]

Very Pinteresting Attire

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Pinterest! Have you heard of it? It’s the new thing. You take things that interest you online and you pin the pictures to boards and basically have a whole bunch of “Boards” (pinboards, bulletin boards, what have you) in different interests, like travel, food and wine, fashion. I have one on Proper Victorian Vampyre Slaying, [...]

JIL-SANDER-SPRING-RTW-2011-PODIUM-028_runway

I was at the hair salon the other day, flipping through US Weekly, and I came to the Who Wears it Best? page.  The two actress both had on a dress that was bright orange on top and bright pink on the bottom.  Interesting, I thought.  And then I read that color-blocking is the hot [...]

Oscar-alikes and Dislikes

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Scarlett at the Golden Globes, 2006 Red Dresses on the Red Carpet- Nothing new. Sandra Bullock looked fantastic (Vera Wang), and so did Anne Hathaway(Valentino) Again, nothing new, though Sandra really needed the improvement after the Golden Globes bangs disaster. What is new? Sandra and Anne showing up looking like well-coordinated sisters on the red [...]

Spring Fashion (fresh from Aunt Norma’s closet)

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Turbans! Yes, turbans are reportedly the new thing this spring. Picture it. You’re finally ready to pack up the sweaters and boots and you reach for your shoulder-padded caftan and top it with a turban! Voila, you’re in style! Oh no! You say. Oh yes! I am not kidding. I have it straight from the [...]

GG Fashion/What’s Your Sign Now?

by Sherri Browning Erwin

It’s a split blog today! Maybe I’m really a Gemini? I wanted to cover astrology, but it was the Golden Globes this weekend. How could I not talk clothes? So check out the gallery here: Golden Globes at GFY, and let’s discuss. Best? I loved Scarlett Johanssen (maybe not her hair), Olivia Wilde (oh no, [...]

Zombie Chic!

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Recent fashions for men, from Men’s Fashion Week (yes, seriously!). Is Jane Slayre influencing fashion? I wish! Hardly. More like zombies are suddenly all over the place, the new big thing. There’s Pride and Prejudice and Zombies that kicked off the literary mash-up trend. And all sorts of zombie books suddenly making the rounds. Robin Becker’s [...]

“Baring” in Mind

by Dee Davis

Right, so I realize this is Good Buys Tuesday.  But unless you’re interested in Elfa shelving, rolling trash cans, shelf paper, tiny microwaves or a/c units—I’ve got nothing.  So instead I’m going to rant about fashion.   Tis the season for baring it all.  But do we really have to see your bra straps?    I have [...]

New Trends that Must Die Now

by Sherri Browning Erwin

You know those denim cut-offs you used to make out of your worn-out jeans to throw on over your bathing suit bottoms to keep your butt from hanging out of your suit at the beach on summer days? The ones you might wear across the boardwalk to the ice cream stand, but never, ever to [...]

by Sherri Browning Erwin

(Classic Kathleen Givens: Originally posted on 11/10/08 as Sherri’s TV Look) Sherri’s going on the air. What to wear? What to wear? Here are some looks she might emulate. She could go for the CNN anchor look, jacket with minimal jewelry and well-tamed hair. Or the Good Morning America look, where she wears form-fitting clothing that [...]

Jammie Fashion: Fashion Friday

by Julie Kenner/J.K. Beck

I’m on deadline, and thus, spending as much time in my jammies as possible–staying in them until as late as possible in the day since I get up and go to the computer until it’s time to do school with the kids, and changing into “real” clothes only when it’s time to go out for [...]

Everything Old is New Again

by Sherri Browning Erwin

What a feeling! Suddenly my daughter is giving the Flashdance treatment to all her t-shirts. She hates constrictive crew necks, but isn’t a fan of v-necks. Plus, she went to a Mika concert in one of her cut t-shirts and the group of guys they started dancing with called her shirt “fabulous”. Now when I [...]

Oscar Fashions Pt 3

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Charlize Theron is usually on my best dressed list, and she would be again (great color!) if only it didn’t look like her dress was attacking her boobs. Here’s Meryl. What do you think? I’m still thinking meh. She looks good, but not amazing, for me anyway. It’s not a wild misstep, I’ll give her [...]

More Oscar Fashion!

by Sherri Browning Erwin

This is exciting! I’m live-blogging the red carpet. Colin Firth is right this second talking to Ryan Seacrest. With his lovely wife. Awww. Meanwhile, George Clooney is running around looking impish. His hair is doing a not-quite-Clooney thing tonight. Interesting. But here we are with more fashion: Miley Cyrus looks tarty and too grown up. [...]

Oscars 2010- Early Pictures!

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Sandra Bullock looks amazing and I hope she wins. But I don’t have a picture of her yet. I do have: Sigourney Weaver. Looking good, even though she blends in with the red carpet in the pic. Vera Farmiga also opted for color. It looks weird in the photo, but I really loved it on [...]

Fashion Friday: Some Vajazzled Evening…

by Sherri Browning Erwin

We’re going to look at the BAFTAs (the Brit version of the Oscars) and Elle Style Award red carpet, but first a gasp at a new trend (speaking of carpet, nyuk nyuk). Vajazzling. What is that, you ask? Well… it starts with a Brazilian. The full monty. And it ends up with your netherregions all [...]

Pop Culture Monday: SAG vs Golden Globe

by Sherri Browning Erwin

Comparisons are fun! Shall we have a look at some different style choices for SAG/Golden Globes? Christina Hendricks. Full figured gal, on the hit show Mad Men. I love that she has amazing curves. And she knows how to play them up or down, clearly. For the Golden Globes, she let the globes come out [...]

Fashion Friday: Golden Globes Whine Report

by Sherri Browning Erwin

So we already talked about some of the gowns in The Good and The Bad on Sunday. Let’s see the rest, shall we? It seems a lot of the looks were up for debate. No two expert sources (E!, People, In Touch, Us, Entertainment Weekly, Go Fug Yourself) seem to agree on who was actually [...]
