The Ugliest Dress..Ever.

Shopping today I found what has to be the UGLIEST dress I've ever seen....

And at a consignment price it's $152.00!

It looks like a multi colored sequined mermaid costume to me. Yuck! 

Biggest Loser Makeover Fashion

Fitness and Fashion = 2 of my favorite things.  This week on The Biggest Loser they had makeover week, which I was all excited about, of course. Here are the pictures of the final 5 contestants in their new looks.

Sunshine - lost 97 lbs so far.

 Notice the styling with the girls in the after pictures. They accentuate the waist, the smallest part of the female form with a belt, so they look slimmer. Also matching tights with shoes elongates the legs, and makes you look slimmer as well.

Ashley - lost 136 lbs so far.

Notice the cinched belt is done here as well to draw attention to her waist. They put Ashley in all black too to make her look slimmer. I love the black outfit with the brown belt, don't be afraid to mix it up a little bit.

Daris - lost 141 lbs so far.

Daris is one of my favorites, I think hes too cute. I love that they cut his curly hair, but still gave it a little bit of style. Dark jeans for guys are a MUST in my opinion.  You can dress them up or down, and the darker the denim, usually the more slimming they are.

 

Sam - lost 134 lbs so far.

Sam is so cute. He went home this week, because hes pretty much done loosing weight. Again, notice the dark jeans.

 

Koli - lost 159 lbs so far

Koli is Sam's cousin, and I love what the did with his makeover.  It's almost "geek chic" to me. (I totally made that up, haha)  In the episode they also had a cute pair of round glasses on him.  I love the blazer and jeans look. Very cool.

Mike - lost 192 lbs so far.

I'm so glad they cut Mikes hair! You cant really tell in the before picture, but he had a huge curly mop of hair that he never did anything with.  I love the layering they did on him, with the graphic tee, and the hoodie underneath the blazer. Notice the dark jeans again. He looks great.

Flash Mob at the Ohio State Union - Glee Style

I live in Columbus, Ohio and to be a resident here it is almost imperative that you be an Ohio State fan. Here is a Glee style flash mob dance the students randomly preformed a couple days ago. Gotta love my buckeyes!

Oooh La La - Met Gala Fashion

These pictures are from the Costume Institute Met Gala Benefit last night. Here are my favorite looks from the event. Color themes I noticed here nudes and midnight blues. I love all of these, but Sienna is my favorite. The Pucci dress shes wearing is amazing, and the shoes! Shes defiantly best dressed in my book. Gorgeous.

Designs & Derby

Busy busy weekend for me! I did get a lot done with DBMB, all things considering.  I started my buying plan, and I'm really excited about some of the great accessories I'm going to be getting for my fall line. I've been doing a lot of research on 2010 Fall jewelry trends, and I think you all will be happy with the items I picked! I can't wait to show them to you guys. I'm still hoping to launch either mid June or early July...if everything is ready by then.  :)  

In Derby Spirit, here are a few celebrity pictures I found from the race on Saturday.
