No Love for Taylor Momsen

As you may know, Tim Gunn is making a cameo apperance on Gossip Girl. You may also know that he had nothing nice to say about Taylor Momsen, at all, while he was there, even calling her "pathetic." See http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/09/15/tim-gunn-taylor-momsen-is_n_717534.html

Of course, why would Tim Gunn have anything nice to say about her? At best, Little Miss Momsen is, well, a zombie hooker.

Part 3: If We Were Rachel Zoe...

And finally, gentle people, we conclude our Rachel Zoe segment with one trend that will never really go away...


Sparklies! Sparkly dresses have been quite the thing lately, haven't they. Clare Danes was positively radiant at the Emmys.  But Claire shouldn't get to have all of the fun. As such, we have also found some gowns for the following lucky actresses.


Zoe Saldana or Carey Mulligan in Dennis Basso. We're torn on this. We think this dress would look great on both of these two ladies. Both are tiny enough to still look tiny in such a voluminous dress. We also think both ladies can pull off the size of it. We know Zoe can, a la Givenchy, Oscars 2010 (see pic below). Carey, on the other hand, could really bring a '60s/ '70s vibe to this with her Mia Farrow haircut that would be killer.

Part 2: If We Were Rachel Zoe...

As we have already explored ombre dresses for some of our clientele, we must now move onto other dresses and other trends for other notable clients.

Floral Prints. Call us crazy, but we kinda think that Christina Hendricks could look gorgeous in this dress below. We weren't entirely sure though, so we felt the need to do a little side-by-side comparison of Ms. Hendricks' recent red carpet appearance in Zac Posen with this Monique Lhuillier dress.We will now tell you, dear hearts, that we absolutely hated Chrissy in this Zac Posen gown. Why? One word (ok three): the atrocious sleeves. She looks like an extra from Moulin Rouge. Not good. However, we like the sentiment of the dress, which is soft and feminine. As such, we think this the Monique Lhuillier gown would have been much more successful, which would expose the narrowest part of her body, her shoulders. Plus, the rouching at the waist and flowing skirt would have been very flattering on her body, and the sweetness of the floral print would have been offset by her utter sauciness. We also think her red hair would have picked up the pinks and gold tones in the print beautifully.

Part 1: If We Were Rachel Zoe...

In a perfect world, we would be stylists to the stars, would we not? And as stylists to the stars, we would be required to attend all of the shows at NY fashion week (thus far) to beg the designers to send us their dresses for our esteemed clientele. We would also most certainly want to choose dresses reflecting the most current trends.As such, I, Mrs. Fashionista, have chosen the best of the best of the trends we have noticed in designer gowns at fashion week this year.

Ombre Dresses. Ombre dresses, like ombre hair have made a splash of color on New York runways this week. We think anyone would look totally gorge in this first, turquoise and green Monique Lhuillier gown, as it looks like the kind of dress that would be flattering on many body types, but in particular, we think Drew Barrymore could look amazing in this gown and her green eyes would p-o-p on any red carpet as a result of the sea foam colors of this dress. There's also an easiness about this gown that mimics Drew's carefree spirit. Plus, the ombre details of the dress match her ombre hair (although we might make her get her color done as there is such a thing as too much ombre).
