Colin Firth and his wife, producer Livia Giuggioli, attended the <em>Mamma Mia!</em> premiere in London, and while he looked dashing and dapper, as always (seriously, Colin -- call us!), we're having a bit of a struggle handling Livia's get up.<br /><br />We were perfectly ready to completely trash it because, <em>come on</em>, <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/celebritynews/2224644/Stars-shine-at-Mamma-Mia!-premiere-in-London.html">it's a bright yellow sequined smiley face dress</a> for crying out loud. However, the film does celebrate the 70s (the era in which the smiley face came to be), so we decided to cut her a little slack. But then we saw <a href="http://www.celebitchy.com/12680/mamma_mia_here_we_go_again_down_the_red_carpet/12/">the back</a>, and we're not so sure that slack can be cut.

Clearly someone has to put a stop to this menace, and what better way to spend police time than to arrest people whose trousers sag below their waist?  <br /><br />After revealing your undies was <a href="http://www.styledash.com/2007/06/13/baggy-pants-outlawed-in-louisiana-town/">deemed unlawful in Louisiana</a>, and some college kid (and his entire family) <a href="http://www.styledash.com/2007/12/31/baggy-jeans-get-family-arrested/">got arrested over a pair of ill-fitting slacks in Florida</a>, it's really no surprise that Flint, Michigan Chief of Police, David Dicks, has <a href="http://www.mlive.com/flintjournal/index.ssf/2008/06/new_flint_chief_david_dicks_or.html">ordered officers to remain vigilant in defending the public against unsightly butt cracks</a>.  He told the local paper that "This immoral self-expression goes beyond free speech," and has thus been deemed "indecent exposure" (which is an offense that warrants arrest). <br /><br />So, It seems that some style fouls are <em>so bad</em> that they can't be handled by the fashion police -- you have to call the <em>actual</em> police instead.  Go figure. You get 'em, Dicks!<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Saggers: Should these guys be arrested?</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/saggers-should-these-guys-be-arrested/892564/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/saggin-7_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/saggers-should-these-guys-be-arrested/892553/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/saggin-6_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/saggers-should-these-guys-be-arrested/892552/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/saggin-5_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/saggers-should-these-guys-be-arrested/892551/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/saggin-4_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/saggers-should-these-guys-be-arrested/892550/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/saggin-3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br />[via <a href="http://www.neatorama.com/2008/06/30/sometimes-the-headline-just-writes-itself/">Neatorama</a>]<h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/30/chief-dicks-puts-smack-down-on-butt-cracks/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1241362/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/30/chief-dicks-puts-smack-down-on-butt-cracks/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1241362"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1241362?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1241362" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1241362&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/30/chief-dicks-puts-smack-down-on-butt-cracks/" /></p>]]></description><category>arrested</category><category>baggy pants</category><category>BaggyPants</category><category>legal</category><category>pants</category><category>sagging</category><dc:creator>Jonathon Morgan</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-06-30T17:35:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Heroes star makes my eyes bleed</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/19/heroes-star-makes-my-eyes-bleed/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/19/heroes-star-makes-my-eyes-bleed/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/19/heroes-star-makes-my-eyes-bleed/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/celebrity-style/" rel="tag">Celebrity Style</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/stylefoul/" rel="tag">StyleFoul</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="410" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/05/dramirez.jpg"  alt="Dania Ramirez" />Dania Ramirez is probably best known as one of the lamest characters on NBC's <em>Heroes</em> (bleeding ink from the eyes and accidentally killing people are the worst superpowers ever), but it looks like she's trying to make a statement off-screen as well. At the recent NBC Universal Experience event, some of the brightest faces from NBC made their way to the red carpet and Ramirez showed up wearing... this.<br /><br />I've been staring at this bizarre ensemble for a good fifteen minutes or so and I cannot make heads nor tails of it. The only way I can process it without my brain exploding is if I break it down, piece by piece. Let's take a look at that electric blue eyeliner first. Okay, so that's fun and a bit daring, but screamingly inappropriate against whatever the heck is draped across her chest and legs. It looks like an 80s parrot ate a bunch of Crayons and then exploded in a fit of agony. The garish colors and print aside, the cut is awkward. The boring, beige shoes just make everything extra confusing.<br /><br />If I cover up the dress, Ramirez still looks okay. Naked, but okay. Need more proof of this red carpet travesty? <a href="http://heroespedia.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=910&amp;page=2">Check it out</a>.<h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/19/heroes-star-makes-my-eyes-bleed/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1199002/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/19/heroes-star-makes-my-eyes-bleed/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1199002"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1199002?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1199002" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1199002&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/05/19/heroes-star-makes-my-eyes-bleed/" /></p>]]></description><category>dania ramirez</category><category>DaniaRamirez</category><category>heroes</category><category>nbc</category><dc:creator>Annie Wu</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-05-19T14:17:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>It's not how low CAN you go, but how low SHOULD you go with these jeans</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/04/24/its-not-how-low-can-you-go-but-how-low-should-you-go-with-thes/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/04/24/its-not-how-low-can-you-go-but-how-low-should-you-go-with-thes/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/04/24/its-not-how-low-can-you-go-but-how-low-should-you-go-with-thes/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/style-in-the-media/" rel="tag">Style in the media</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/jeans-and-denim/" rel="tag">Jeans and Denim</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/stylefoul/" rel="tag">StyleFoul</a></p><div align="center"><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="1" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/04/thong-jeans-425.jpg" alt="" /><br /><br /></div>

Actually, that's not really true... When I think of "mess", I think of Bobby Trendy. Yup, that's a bit more accurate.<br /><br />Bobby Trendy rose to D-list fame when he appeared on E!'s <em>Anna Nicole Show</em> as the late Ms. Smith's interior designer. At first it was kind of funny, watching this fellow don painfully pink outfits and enough lip gloss to shellac ten dinette sets. Then the show ended and Trendy faded into obscurity... or so the world wished. These recent pictures show that Trendy is still kickin', looking even more ridiculous than usual. <br /><br />I honestly don't even know where to begin. Do I start with the pillow arms? The gift wrapping hair? The false lashes of doom? The bizarre addition of the DHL bag? Take your pick.<br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Bobby Trendy</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/bobby-trendy-1/700979/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/bbtrend5_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/bobby-trendy-1/700978/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/bbtrend4_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/bobby-trendy-1/700977/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/bbtrend3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/bobby-trendy-1/700976/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/bbtrend1_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/bobby-trendy-1/700975/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/bbtrend2_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/19/bobby-trendy-somehow-manages-to-get-less-trendy/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1141202/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/19/bobby-trendy-somehow-manages-to-get-less-trendy/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1141202"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1141202?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1141202" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1141202&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/19/bobby-trendy-somehow-manages-to-get-less-trendy/" /></p>]]></description><category>anna nicole smith</category><category>AnnaNicoleSmith</category><category>bobby trendy</category><category>celeb</category><category>celebrity</category><category>stylefoul</category><dc:creator>Annie Wu</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-03-19T09:49:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Rihanna's outfits are a bad idea gone worse</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/18/rihannas-outfits-are-a-bad-idea-gone-worse/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/18/rihannas-outfits-are-a-bad-idea-gone-worse/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/18/rihannas-outfits-are-a-bad-idea-gone-worse/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/style-icons/" rel="tag">Style icons</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/celebrity-style/" rel="tag">Celebrity Style</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/stylefoul/" rel="tag">StyleFoul</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="365" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/rihanonst.jpg" alt="Rihanna" />One would think that after three albums under her belt, including her latest "Good Girl Gone Bad", <a href="http://www.rihannanow.com/">Rihanna</a> would have gotten a better sense of what looks hot onstage and what does not. No doubt about it, Rihanna has a fantastic body (and crazy legs) but she's showing it off in all the wrong ways. Check out her onstage outfit and marvel at the overwhelming shininess of it all. Even her legs look a little plastic.<br /> <br /> Despite Rihanna and her stylists' best efforts, this style looks less "dangerous dominatrix" and more "Hot Topic design reject". Come on, you 19 year-old, have some fun, but stay away from the hooker boots and ill-fitting corsets.<br /> <br /> What do you think of Rihanna's get-up?<br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Rihanna onstage</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/rihanna-onstage/701425/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/hanna3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Rihanna" title="Rihanna" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/rihanna-onstage/701424/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/hanna4_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Rihanna" title="Rihanna" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/rihanna-onstage/701423/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/hanna5_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Rihanna" title="Rihanna" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/rihanna-onstage/701422/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/hanna6_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Rihanna" title="Rihanna" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/rihanna-onstage/701421/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/hanna2_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Rihanna" title="Rihanna" /></a></div><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/18/rihannas-outfits-are-a-bad-idea-gone-worse/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1141363/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/18/rihannas-outfits-are-a-bad-idea-gone-worse/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1141363"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1141363?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1141363" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1141363&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/18/rihannas-outfits-are-a-bad-idea-gone-worse/" /></p>]]></description><category>concert</category><category>good girl gone bad</category><category>music</category><category>onstage</category><category>rihanna</category><category>stylefoul</category><dc:creator>Annie Wu</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-03-18T17:57:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>The importance of being properly shod: Emma Watson</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/13/the-importance-of-being-properly-shod-emma-watson/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/13/the-importance-of-being-properly-shod-emma-watson/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/13/the-importance-of-being-properly-shod-emma-watson/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/shoes/" rel="tag">Shoes</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/celebrity-style/" rel="tag">Celebrity Style</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/stylefoul/" rel="tag">StyleFoul</a></p><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="0" align="right" alt="" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/80179195.jpg" />When I first saw <strike>Hermione</strike> Emma Watson here, I thought, not a great fit on the dress, but MAN I'd love to have her easy-breezy hair. She and her friends look young, fresh, and ... <a href="http://gofugyourself.typepad.com/go_fug_yourself/2008/03/harry-potter-an.html">OH DEAR GOD, WHAT IS ON HER FEET</a>? What is on ALL of their feet?<br /><br />I mean, Hermione, honey, did you buy those in Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes? You <em>know </em>that's a joke shop -- they might have looked good <em>there</em>, but the moment you left Diagon Alley, they turned into black athletic tape.<br /><br />I shouldn't be so mean. Probably she was hexed and her ankles won't hold her up without magical ugly shoes. Or, perhaps her fugly-footed friends put a spell on her and made her wear these in order to make their shoes look better (because that's the only way Katie Leung's (right) shoes were going to escape criticism. Evanna Lynch (left) is debatable, in large part because she's next to those two).<br /><br />Except this is the real world, with no witches, hexes, or excuses, these shoes ruin an otherwise passable outfit.<br /><br /><a href="http://gofugyourself.typepad.com/go_fug_yourself/2008/03/harry-potter-an.html"><em>via Go Fug Yourself</em></a><br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Shoes that would have been better than Emma Watson's</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/shoes-that-would-have-been-better-than-emma-watsons/696966/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/pl578504-00vliv01_thumbnail.jpg" alt="BCBG Max Azria, $210" title="BCBG Max Azria, $210" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/shoes-that-would-have-been-better-than-emma-watsons/696963/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/pl556375-00vliv01_thumbnail.jpg" alt="BCBG Girls, $89" title="BCBG Girls, $89" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/shoes-that-would-have-been-better-than-emma-watsons/696962/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/pl553441-00vliv01_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Bettye Muller, $415" title="Bettye Muller, $415" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/shoes-that-would-have-been-better-than-emma-watsons/696964/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/pl560299-00vliv01_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Claudia Ciuti, $345" title="Claudia Ciuti, $345" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/shoes-that-would-have-been-better-than-emma-watsons/697005/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/pl570417-00vliv01_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Nine West, $80" title="Nine West, $80" /></a></div><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href=http://gofugyourself.typepad.com/go_fug_yourself/2008/03/harry-potter-an.html>Read</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/13/the-importance-of-being-properly-shod-emma-watson/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1139276/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/13/the-importance-of-being-properly-shod-emma-watson/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1139276"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1139276?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1139276" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1139276&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/13/the-importance-of-being-properly-shod-emma-watson/" /></p>]]></description><category>celebrity</category><category>Emma-Watson</category><category>Harry-Potter</category><category>Hermione</category><category>shoes</category><category>witch</category><dc:creator>Kristen Seymour</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-03-13T11:54:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Posh, your shoes are missing something!</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/06/posh-your-shoes-are-missing-something/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/06/posh-your-shoes-are-missing-something/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/03/06/posh-your-shoes-are-missing-something/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/high-end-threads/" rel="tag">High-end threads</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/shoes/" rel="tag">Shoes</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/designers/" rel="tag">Designers</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/celebrity-style/" rel="tag">Celebrity Style</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/stylefoul/" rel="tag">StyleFoul</a></p><img vspace="4" hspace="4" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/heeless.jpg" /><br />Personally, if I spent four grand on a pair of shoes and, upon receiving them, they were missing a part, I'd be ticked. But that's just practical, boring me. <a href="http://www.shoehunting.com/2008/02/28/heeless-shoes-for-posh-and-uma-rest-of-world-prefers-not-falling/">Victoria Beckham, however, actually did this on purpose</a> -- pictured here are the $3600 Antonio Berardi heel-less shoes that now call her overcrowded (and terrifying) closet home.<br /><br />I mean, isn't this dangerous? The girl is seriously top-heavy to begin with (not even counting her boobs -- her head is like a lollipop!), so who's brilliant idea was it to put her in shoes that don't allow her to put weight on her heels?<br /><br />Supposedly, the look is meant to be "dainty," like you're constantly walking on your toes. Well, yeah -- that's because you are! Unfortch, Posh doesn't seem to be the only one reeled in by this bad idea. Uma Thurman and Gwyneth Paltrow are also guilty.<br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Shoes Without Heels</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/shoes-without-heels/686209/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/mono-eamz-red_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Red hot?" title="Red hot?" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/shoes-without-heels/686207/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/eamz-pump-purple_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Perfect in purple" title="Perfect in purple" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/shoes-without-heels/686205/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/eamz-booty-blown_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Like a mullet" title="Like a mullet" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/shoes-without-heels/686206/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/eamz-booty-gold_thumbnail.jpg" alt="A new kind of moon boot" title="A new kind of moon boot" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/shoes-without-heels/686208/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/03/manolo_heeless_1-729267momist_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Even Manolo is in on the act" title="Even Manolo is in on the act" /></a></div><br /><br />Oh, and just in case you're thinking, "They're not that bad -- at least it's something new," I have something to share --<em> it's not even a new idea!</em> Heel-less shoes have been around for a while, and <a href="http://www.shoehunting.com/2007/11/30/united-nude-shoes-of-the-future-today/">multiple designers have given the look a shot</a>.

You know, <a href="http://gofugyourself.typepad.com/go_fug_yourself/2008/03/all-of-yesterda.html">because she always looks so great on the red carpet</a>. And Gary Busey is sane and Paris Hilton is classy.<br /><br />I mean, yes, I get it -- Chloe Sevigny loves the '80s and early '90s the way Sharon Stone loves to wear dead animals. And both are horrible crimes against nature. And, you know, I understand that we can't control her when she makes public appearances -- that's for a stylist, or an alligator wrestler, or someone more daring than myself to handle. However, allowing the girl to <em>design</em> clothes that <em>other people</em> are supposed to wear? She must be stopped. <br /><br />I looked through the collection, and I think I found a pair of shoes I might wear. In the yard. If I was <em>sure</em> none of my neighbors would stop by. I also saw a few pieces that scream "<a href="http://www.lauraashley.com/">Laura Ashley</a>'s Ladies of the Night." Good grief -- a woman should never have to worry about whether a rose pattern on her leggings makes it look like she has camel toe. Say it with me now ...

Would you be inclined to support a line of cosmetics called "Lookin' Good for Jesus," or would you, like the people of Singapore, be offended?  I suppose it's a matter of personal opinion, but Roman Catholics in Singapore complained that the items were offensive and they were subsequently pulled from stores.<br /><br />Produced by <a href="http://www.blueq.com/shop/114-catId.117440633_114-productId.0.html">Blue Q</a> the line promises to "Redeem your reputation and more."  Products include a  "virtuous vanilla" lip balm and "Get Tight with Christ" hand and body cream.<br /><br />According to The Straits Times (via <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23129555/">MSNBC</a>):<br /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><em>"These products trivialize Jesus Christ and Christianity," it quoted Nick Chui, 27, one of the complainants, as saying. "There are also sexual innuendos in the messages and the way Jesus is portrayed in these products."</em> </div>
<p class="textBodyBlack" style="text-align: justify;"><em><span id="byLine"></span>On the packaging of one of the products, Jesus, wearing a bright white robe, looks heavenward while a blond, heavily made-up woman with an arm draped across his shoulder gazes dreamily at his face.</em></p>
<div style="text-align: justify;"> </div>
<p class="textBodyBlack" style="text-align: justify;"><em><span id="byLine"></span>"Why would anyone use religious figures to promote vanity products? It's very disrespectful and distasteful," the report quoted 24-year-old accountant Grace Ong, also Catholic, as saying.</em></p>
<br />Judging by the fact that Blue Q has other lines called "Dirty Girl," "Cat Butt," "Mullet," and "Balls," I think it's fairly clear what their intentions were when creating the products.  Offensive sells.<br /><br />They do make <a href="http://www.blueq.com/shop/114-catId.117440556_114-productId.0.html">this</a> though, which I've actually purchased as a gag gift.

Also, with such strangely, um, augmented bodies, it's probably rather difficult to find clothing that fits off-the-rack. Yes, the pun was fully intended.<br /><br />The bizarre sight of fully -- and I use "fully" very lightly -- dressed porn stars is a bit much to handle, but the public got to see it when the big names of the industry strut their plastic stuff on the Adult Video News Awards red carpet. What ensued was a display of some of the worst clothing choices I have seen in a long, long time. Those that even bothered to try and wear something without strategically-cut holes wore tacky outfits straight from a trashy 1996 prom. Take a quick look, <a href="http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/19297334.html">if you dare</a>, but the pictures are still pretty Not Safe For Work.<br /><br />Sorry, but without a Golden Globes red carpet to monitor, this is all I've got.

However, there is a line between "big fan" and "someone who is hyper-obsessed, with bad taste". This post is about a tattoo that falls in the latter category.<br /><br />Styledash has reported on a lot of <a href="http://www.styledash.com/2007/06/08/now-even-your-laptop-can-be-stylish/">extravagant</a> <a href="http://www.styledash.com/2007/10/25/assault-in-style-hello-kitty-style/">and weird</a> <a href="http://www.styledash.com/2006/12/07/for-the-girl-who-has-everything-a-20-pound-platinum-hello-kit/">ways</a> that Hello Kitty fans have shown their love, but this "Hello Kitty is my Jesus" tattoo probably one of the most bizarre ones. First of all... <em>Why?</em> Why in the world would anyone want that? Is this the ultimate example of why people shouldn't get drunk near tattoo parlors? Or did a lucid person genuinely believe that this was a good idea? The strangest thing is that I find myself most weirded out by the fact that Hello Kitty has really awkward facial hair.<br /><br />In three years' time, this person is going to be super-embarrassed by their tattoo choice. And by "three years", I mean "three days".<br /><br />[via: <a href="http://www.neatorama.com/2008/01/10/hello-kitty-jesus-tattoo/">Neatorama</a>]<h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/12/taking-hello-kitty-love-to-a-whole-new-level/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1085039/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/12/taking-hello-kitty-love-to-a-whole-new-level/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1085039"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1085039?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1085039" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1085039&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/12/taking-hello-kitty-love-to-a-whole-new-level/" /></p>]]></description><category>hello kitty</category><category>HelloKitty</category><category>jesus</category><category>kitty hell</category><category>KittyHell</category><category>stylefoul</category><category>tattoo</category><category>tattoos</category><dc:creator>Annie Wu</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-01-12T14:18:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Wedge sneakers!

The truth was I looked heinous and so did everyone else who wore those ridiculous shoes.  I thought that after having over a decade pass without seeing those fugly shoes that they were officially dead.<br /><br />I should have known better.  No trend ever dies, they come back only bigger and stronger -- like a horror movie monster.  Our latest "horror movie" monster is brought to you by Michael Kors.  I was truly shocked to see that Michael's name was slapped on these shoes because there is no way these got his seal of approval.<br /><br />What do you think, am I over reacting or are people really going to wear<a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2957803?Category=&amp;Search=True&amp;SearchType=guidednav&amp;keyword=michael+kors+in+All+Categories+%3e+Women%27s+Shoes&amp;origin=searchresultshttp://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2957803?Category=&amp;Search=True&amp;SearchType=guidednav&amp;keyword=michael+kors+in+All+Categories+%3e+Women%27s+Shoes&amp;origin=searchresults" target="_top"> these shoes? </a><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href=http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2957803?Category=&amp;Search=True&amp;SearchType=guidednav&amp;keyword=michael+kors+in+All+Categories+%3e+Women%27s+Shoes&amp;origin=searchresults>Read</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/10/wedge-sneakers-say-it-aint-so/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1082993/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/10/wedge-sneakers-say-it-aint-so/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1082993"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1082993?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1082993" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1082993&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/10/wedge-sneakers-say-it-aint-so/" /></p>]]></description><category>athletic shoes</category><category>AthleticShoes</category><category>dress shoes</category><category>DressShoes</category><category>michael kors</category><category>MichaelKors</category><category>shoes</category><category>wedge sneakers</category><category>WedgeSneakers</category><dc:creator>Lauren Messiah</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-01-10T18:41:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Comfort is no excuse for mustard-stained sweatpants</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/07/comfort-is-no-excuse-for-mustard-stained-sweatpants/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/07/comfort-is-no-excuse-for-mustard-stained-sweatpants/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/07/comfort-is-no-excuse-for-mustard-stained-sweatpants/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/casual-wear/" rel="tag">Casual wear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/outerwear/" rel="tag">Outerwear</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/stylefoul/" rel="tag">StyleFoul</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/head-to-toe/" rel="tag">Head to Toe</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="394" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/01/notop.jpg"  alt="Ugly Pants" />The most common excuse I hear for wearing atrocities like tracksuits and terribly ill-fitting pants (please see the picture to the right) is "But it's so comfy!" Um, okay. I didn't know comfort was a reason to show up to the supermarket like a velour nightmare. How many times have you stumbled out of bed, gone to the nearby Starbucks with the intention to be in and out within ten minutes, only to bump into a friend (I won't mention if they're super attractive or not) and be immediately consumed with hot embarrassment because you look like you, well, stumbled out of bed? And if that hasn't happened yet, it will, my friend. It will. Looking somewhat decent doesn't take that much work, actually. No one should have to get glammed up to go for a morning coffee run, but no one should be able to confuse you for a homeless person either. Here are some helpful hints on how to not look like a slob without sacrificing your morning.<br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Better Comfortable Choices</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/better-comfortable-choices/561149/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/01/op1_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Forever 21 Hoodie" title="Forever 21 Hoodie" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/better-comfortable-choices/561155/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/01/op11_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Urban Outfitters Hoodie" title="Urban Outfitters Hoodie" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/better-comfortable-choices/561150/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/01/op2_thumbnail.jpg" alt="GAP Pants" title="GAP Pants" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/better-comfortable-choices/561151/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/01/op3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Crocs Prima" title="Crocs Prima" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/better-comfortable-choices/561152/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/01/op4_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Ballet flats" title="Ballet flats" /></a></div><p><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/07/comfort-is-no-excuse-for-mustard-stained-sweatpants/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Comfort is no excuse for mustard-stained sweatpants</em></a></p><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/07/comfort-is-no-excuse-for-mustard-stained-sweatpants/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1078842/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/07/comfort-is-no-excuse-for-mustard-stained-sweatpants/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1078842"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1078842?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1078842" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1078842&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/07/comfort-is-no-excuse-for-mustard-stained-sweatpants/" /></p>]]></description><category>bare escentuals</category><category>bare minerals</category><category>BareEscentuals</category><category>BareMinerals</category><category>bra</category><category>bras</category><category>comfort</category><category>crocs</category><category>hoodies</category><category>nordstrom</category><category>stylefoul</category><category>urban outfitters</category><category>UrbanOutfitters</category><dc:creator>Annie Wu</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-01-07T15:44:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Stylefoul: Avril Lavigne's New Year's Eve getup</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/02/stylefoul-avril-lavignes-new-years-eve-getup/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/02/stylefoul-avril-lavignes-new-years-eve-getup/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/01/02/stylefoul-avril-lavignes-new-years-eve-getup/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/coiffure/" rel="tag">Coiffure</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/celebrity-style/" rel="tag">Celebrity Style</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/stylefoul/" rel="tag">StyleFoul</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="415" border="0" align="right" alt="Avril Lavigne" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/01/lavigne.jpg" />All right, perhaps it's a bit unfair to call Avril Lavigne's <a href="http://avril-images.net/displayimage.php?album=1014&amp;pos=5">New Year's Eve outfit</a> a "getup" because it seems to be what she's wearing these days.

I don't entirely know what to think anymore.<br /><br />Note Lavigne's chunky streaks, oversized false lashes, wrinkled graphic shirt, bright pink nails, tiny plaid skirt, belt worn askew, skull-embellished Doc Martens, and thick checkerboard shoelaces.

The casual fashionista probably noticed H&amp;M, Target, and other mainstream retailers stopped carrying the annoyingly bold, 80s-inspired fashions that'd been a staple for far too long, opting instead for a re-invention of the 90s -- grunge, grime, and even retro-gaming were big in the second half of the year. <br /><br />But what were the foul-ups -- the big industry issues that, regardless of major trends, will live on in infamy? <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/27/fashion/27ROW.html?ref=fashion">According to Eric Wilson at the NY Times</a>, these were the worst of the worst:<br />
<ul>
    <li>Vera Wang's cameo on <em>Ugly Betty</em></li>
    <li>The <a href="http://www.styledash.com/2007/08/24/feed-the-models-save-the-world/">ultra-thin model controversy</a>, and the almost complete lack of any non-white models on catwalks and magazine covers</li>
    <li>Wedding gowns <a href="http://www.styledash.com/2007/02/23/would-you-dress-like-a-disney-princess-for-your-wedding/">based on Disney characters</a></li>
    <li>The "<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2007/07/20/im-not-a-plastic-bag-backlash/">I am not a plastic bag</a>" obsession</li>
    <li>Anna Wintour's <a href="http://www.styledash.com/2007/12/07/how-would-you-dress-a-half-naked-vogue-editor/">appearance on Stardoll</a></li>

Well, put your goth radar to the test on this <a href="http://coilhouse.net/2007/12/21/gothic-outfit-or-halloween-costume/">post from Coilhouse</a> and pick out the costumes from the outfits.<br /><br />I consider myself to be fairly well-aware of goth style and always thought that I've been pretty good at differentiating between goth chic and Hot Topic clearance rack crap. Okay, I admit... It looks like I'm wrong. I think I only got three out of the eight answers right. Time to throw aside my bat wings and hang my head in shame.<br /><br />Who can really blame me, though? Some of these are too outrageous for any self-respecting goth to wear out. I mean, a witch's hat? Seriously? If one must go for the goth look, keep it sleek, keep it classy, keep it dark. Lose the dreads and scary platforms.<h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2007/12/22/goth-outfit-or-gothy-costume/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1068818/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2007/12/22/goth-outfit-or-gothy-costume/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1068818"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1068818?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1068818" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1068818&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2007/12/22/goth-outfit-or-gothy-costume/" /></p>]]></description><category>costume</category><category>cyber</category><category>goth</category><category>gothic</category><category>halloween</category><dc:creator>Annie Wu</dc:creator><dc:date>2007-12-22T09:10:00 00:00</dc:date></item></channel></rss>
