News: Entertainment Weekly's New Classics: Style

Entertainment Weekly's come out with lists of the top 100 moments (since 1983) that changed fashion and pop culture. Over on my other blog I've discussed my likes and dislikes of their movie, TV, and music choices. I wasn't happy with those lists and I'm not with this one, either.

The good:
I agree whole-heartedly with their number one choice of the legend-that-is Madonna, because... she's Madonna and it made her career (though how big was it really for fashion?) And I'm even happier to see Kurt Cobain's grunge look on the list, mostly because he still influences designers to this day.

The bad:
The inclusion of Amy Winehouse (as much as I like her music) is ridiculous; though her eye makeup did inspire the Fall '07 Chanel runway. And I think it's a good time to express my hate for J. Lo's hideous 2000 Grammy dress; I've always detested it, but now more than ever.

Sex and the City Miscellaneous Roundup

This is all the stragglers from the gal's (plus some) fab press tour. By the way- it took the numero uno spot at the box office with $56 mil.

News: SATC in NYC

Yay! Yay! Yay! It's here! The New York City premiere of the Sex and the City Movie is finally here, well was on Tuesday night. All four gals came out, (plus a gazillion fans), to finally see the film in its home base. Another fabulous party, another fabulous night of fashion. Now it's time to see it for ourselves...TODAY!
Let's Break the Fashion Down:
SJP in Nina Ricci: A for absolute fabulousness!
Kim Cattrall in Vivianne Westwood: B- for it being her best look yet.
Kristen Davis in Donna Karan: B+ for looking "Charlottey," but a bit unflattering.
Cynthia Nixon in Narcisco Rodriguez: A- for a great, though pale look.

SJP's Loves to Make a Statement

Sarah Jessica Parker is working her Manolos off promoting Sex and the City. I love seeing her out and about, which is what she was doing this past week in London following the film's world premiere in the British City. Off the red (or pink) rug, Sarah's been flaunting her usual adventurously perfect wardrobe. Less than 2 weeks till the film and even less time till the (huge) NYC premiere.

Parties: The Cast of SATC Sexes Up Berlin

Here we go again... All four fabulous cast members brought sexy back to Berlin on Thursday. Who can't wait for the New York City extravaganza-worthy premiere? I know I can't!

Let's break the fashion down:
Kristen in Oscar de la Renta: B- for looking sweet and frumpy.
SJP in Versace: A- for looking great, but not glaming it up enough.
Cynthia in a black halter gown: A for finding a look and sticking to it.
Kim in an orange frock: D+ for finding a great colored frock in an awful cut.

Parties: SATC's Fabulous Premiere in London

Whoohoo! I cannot contain my excitement! The Sex and the City world premiere was held in London earlier in the week. And what a night it was! Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha, and Miranda all came out to celebrate.

Let's break the fashion down:
SJP in Alexander McQueen and a Phillip Treacy hat: A+ for absolute fabulousness!
Kim in Vivienne Westwood: D+ for the dowdiness.
Cynthia in Calvin Klein: A- for glamming it up so well.
Kristen in Guy Laroche Couture: A for staying true to her classic self.

Trend Radar: Sheaths & Bold Necklaces

How's about one Upper East Sider channeling another sound to you? Well, it certainlysounds like a fashion palooza to me. In early April Sarah Jessica Parker looked chic and stunning on the red rug promoting the Sex and the City movie. Earlier in the week Gossip Girl's Blake Lively channeled the style setting star in a similar ensemle. Carrie is known to start a trend...

SJP's Looking Very "Carrie"

And I can't be more excited! At last night's premiere of hubby Matthew's new movie Then She Found Me, Sarah Jessica Parker looked a little in character (or slightly inspired by her 2005 SAG Awards ensemble) in a Bitten (her line at Steve & Barry's) blue and white floral dress, that will totally be in my closet ASAP, and Valentino heels. But, like wow; this makes me crave the Sex and the City Movie even more. And, of course, the best part of a new movie is always the red rug press tours!
