The Pixie Do: Classic v. New Hollywood

Last post of the day my dears.

These days, every young hollywood star seems to be jumping on board the pixie boat. Of course, really Hollywood stars have been chopping off their locks for years, which, of course, begs the question, who looks best in the pixie cut? Classic Hollywood or Current Hollywood?


1. An American in Paris: Anne Hathaway v. Leslie Caron. Anne Hathaway is currently filming her new rom com called One Day, in gay Par-ee. Of course, once upon a time, Leslie Caron filmed the classic musical An American in Paris in the City of Lights (or a reasonable soundstage facsimile thereof). We actually love Anne's new hair and think her dress mimics the '50s style of the Vincent Minelli classic beautifully. We also love the curl effect in Leslie Caron's pixie do. Verdict: We truly like Anne's pixie, but it's a bit of a shame to have seen her cut her beautiful hair. Leslie Caron, on the other hand, never looked great with long hair in our opinion, so the pixie should have been her only option. Leslie Caron wins.

Who is the Fiercest Fashionista in Hollywood?

Gentle People,

Recently, certain young starlets have been getting attention for being snazzy dressers, when they don't perhaps deserve such high praise--we're looking at you Lea Michele.While we very much appreciate Lea's style and her fantastic rendition of Don't Rain on My Parade, she doesn't really take a lot of chances with her attire. Don't get me wrong, we love most of her fashion choices, we just think there are others more worthy of our Fashionista title. All of our nominees for fiercest fashionista take chances with their wardrobe which we think the media all too often punishes them for. The media is, of course, wrong and Mrs. Fashionista is, of course, always right. And the nominees are:

1. Zoe Saldana

Here is the dress that first made us take notice of this Latina fashionista. A good bit of the press gave her hell for it.  For me, this was the dress at the 2010 Oscars. Zoe also made a statement in this beautiful orange Lanvin earlier this year.
