Well
it wasn’t exactly what I had hoped for but we did see Jason in something other
than a standard packaged t-shirt this week.
First there was a *long sleeved* t-shirt and then there was that wetsuit. If anyone can make a case for wetsuits as a fashion staple,
it would be Jason. I think if I
were writing GH though, he would have fallen to the floor when he made it back
to the penthouse so Liz could hurriedly unzip the suit and expose his chest.
I mean, he could have been really tired after his bump on the head
and swim through the harbor, right?
Plastic
surgery alert!! Bobbie was missing
for a few weeks and returned on Thursday looking suspiciously puffy (and weird
in that denim pantsuit. Has Jackie
Zeman taken up sewing? The fabric
of that suit screamed Wal-Mart to me). Was
it a Botox injection or all-out surgery? She
looked a little expression-less so I’m leaning toward Botox but only time will
tell. Once the swelling goes down,
if she looks like her eyes are popping out of her head again, you know it’s
surgery. * sigh * I know that
actors really do have to try and look young but sometimes the excessive
surgeries make them look so cartoonish and well, bad.
If I were to go under the knife I would definitely ask Helena who did her
because at least it was done right. That
woman is 70 years old if you can believe it!
I can’t wait to see her again – now that is a fashion diva.
Speaking
of divas, are we all in agreement that Brenda’s return means much to the
fashion canvas at GH? Is it just
that Vanessa Marcil is so beautiful that she can pull off anything, or do they
really just *know* how to dress Brenda? Whether
she’s in her famous slip dresses or wrapped up with rawhide, she looks good
and oh so Brenda. I’m excited
she’s back just so I have the inspiration to leave my hair alone for a while
and try to grow it out like hers.
I
think Carly has been looking better lately.
We’re seeing less of her midriff.
There was some weird pleather band around her waist the other day that I
couldn’t really determine the purpose of, but all in all, she’s been looking
better. Tamara Braun is very skinny
and I think she looks nice in a tight dress but I don’t wanna see too much
skin. Counting her ribs (not to
mention the striations in her muscles) distracts me.
Speaking
of skinny, Rebecca Herbst can stop losing her baby weight any time now. She’s going to weigh less than the baby if she keeps it up.
Love her over-dyed jeans lately but the spaghetti strap tank tops really
drive home the fact that she is a member of the skin and bones club.
I’m wondering what sector of society finds that look appealing and what
makes these actresses feel the need to remove all traces of femininity on their
bodies? If they want to make their
faces more angular to show off their cheekbones, can’t they just work the
blush a little bit? I’m throwing
a good makeup artist and a bucket of chicken at Lizzy – hope she catches it.
One
of my major fashion pet peeves is any pair of jeans that are supposed to look
naturally worn-out, faded, creased etc. that DON’T.
I love when any of the characters wear jeans but it makes my skin crawl
to see Lucky walk around in those low-rise numbers that have the contrived
crease marks where he didn’t sit down long enough to put them there.
I won’t even launch into his wardrobe as a whole, because you know I
hate it, but those jeans just really gross me out.
If anyone has the luxury of a 5 year old pair of jeans (don’t I wish I
could fit into jeans I wore 5 years ago) and they have real crease marks from
sitting down, you know those marks don’t go down to your knees.
Lucky irritates me, Lucky’s clothes irritate me and those jeans really
got under my skin. If I were his
mother I might pretend not to know him either – not until he went and got
himself a respectable pair of jeans that are aged a bit more authentically.
Geesh..
Scott’s
multi-colored dress shirts are creeping me out a little bit too.
Does he just have a closet full of those things in every bright color of
the Crayola spectrum? Lime green,
grape, mango, cerulean?? I like
that they try to give him a little hint of funkiness but those shirts remind me
of the sales manager at the cable company where I used to work.
He was such a shyster – his shirts were even monogrammed on the pocket
with contrasting thread. And he
always wore them with ties that had the exact same shade of lime green or mango
somewhere in their atrocious design. Maybe
that look is just perfect for Scotty…
Signing
off but not without saying that I think Alexis needs to start showing PRONTO!
I am dying to see her maternity wardrobe and I just know it has been long
enough for her not to be buttoning those damn pantsuits any more.
I KNOW IT!!
E-mail me if you have a chance!!
