Celebrity Redo: Charlize Theron

Filed under Celebrity Redo

Charlize was clearly trying to go for the laid-back red carpet look,but it just didn’t work (a bit sloppy and definitely unflattering). For the redo, I kept her in black but used a strapless sexy cocktail dress with a pair of funky cuffed platforms for some edge.  What do you think Of Chalize’s outfit?

Celebrity Redo: Drew Barrymore

Filed under Celebrity Redo

What is up with Drew’s closet lately?  Yes, she’s gorgeous and has great style, but it seems like her outfits have gone from cool and quirky to down right silly.  While this outfit isn’t terrible, it’s still a “off.”  The skinny jeans are overly rolled up and the shirt is totally shapeless.  I kept within her outfit’s “theme” but swapped out her button down for a more flattering scoop neckline that ties at the side.  I also kept her skinny jeans but threw in some fierce white platform sandals.  Hope you like it!  What do you think of Drew’s outfit?

Celebrity Redo: Eva Longoria

Filed under Celebrity Redo

I’m not going to trash Eva because the girl looks fine 99.9% of the time.   And the dress isn’t really ugly; it just has this grandma-vibe to it.  So I swapped out the flowered wrap dress for a sexy but simple tube dress.  I also  added a funky red clutch (that I LOVE) which can also be used as a cross bodybag and kept within the look of her accessories.  What do you think of Eva’s look….hot or not?

Jennifer Aniston on the set of “Bounty Hunter” sporting the minimalist look (which doesn’t look any different from her usual style).  She looks fabulous as always but for fun I decided to put my own spin on the outfit.  Hope you like it!

Celebrity Redo: Britney Spears

June 19, 2009 by 1vida  
Filed under Celebrity Redo

Either Britney doesn’t have a stylist or she shares the same one with Jessica Simpson!  While she exudes that perfect  blend of adorable and sexy, it’s hard not to be mean when it comes to her sense of style (and being mean is just not my style!).  So, I’ll just get right to the redo.  I switched her shorts for white skinny jeans and added a plaid jacket  to maintain a theme for the outfit.  To round things out I gave her some pumps and a funky clutch.  Best thing about the outfit is that it’s all under $100!  What do you think of Britney’s fashion sense? How would you have dressed her?

Celebrity Redo: Jessica Simpson

June 14, 2009 by 1vida  
Filed under Celebrity Copycat

Who is her stylist?  How can you be so beautiful, yet rarely photographed wearing anything flattering?  This outfit is just flat out wrong for her!  Not only is it too loud, but it hides one of Jessica’s strongest features – her curves.  For the redo, I switched the tunic Jessica is wearing for a v-neck tunic with an empire waist (this will pull attention to her waist and provide a long, lean look).  Then I added a pair of much needed shorts.  The shorts need to be a little longer otherwise they will get lost under the tunic.  Lastly, the shoes and bag had to go: The ankle strapped sandals make her legs appear short and the bag, while cute, is way too overwhelming for any outfit with dominating patterns (I would have used the bag for a simple white dress or a pair of jeans and a tank).  Which do you like better: Original or Redo?  How would you have dressed her?

Celebrity Redo: Jennifer Love Hewitt

June 12, 2009 by 1vida  
Filed under Celebrity Copycat

I bet you’re wondering why I would redo Jennifer’s outfit.  Truth is, nothing’s really wrong with it: the skirt flatters her curvy figure and the shoes are definitely hot (although a bit overwhelming for the outfit). It’s just so-so and a bit boring.  I just think the girl needs some character!  SO, I decided to keep her in a pencil skirt but add a funky pair of peep toe wedges and a plaid shirt to give the outfit a modern/vintage vibe.  The peep toe wedges are a little pricey, but you’ll get year-round use.  Hope you like it and don’t forget to check out the widget below for more options!

Celebrity Redo: Get Jennifer Lopez’s Look for Less!

April 6, 2009 by 1vida  
Filed under Celebrity Redo

Jennifer Lopez is gorgeous no matter what she’s wearing BUT in this case the outfit is a bit unflattering. There’s the sweater that’s a tad bit to short and cut way to high giving her a heavier illusion. So, I decided to keep within the same black city chic look but switched the crew neck sweater to a v-neck tunic and added a ruffled top for some well needed detail. Hope you like it. Get JLo’s look for less!
