Fashion Friday 4

I’m still alive! I’ve been slacking on the movie front, but I’m breathing some life back into the fashion segment. Here’s another edition of Fashion Friday (which is just an arbitrary title…it is only Wednesday after all.)

Ciara

Ciara

Ciara is all class in this gorgeous Thakoon creation. Not a single thing wrong with this picture right here, from her pose to her toes (well, those Christian Louboutins covering her toes that is), and the stylin’ mane framing her impeccably-made up face. Pretty much my favorite look of the week, which is why it’s first.

Leighton Meester

Leighton Meester

Aside from the overly-fried hair Leighton Meester looks stunning in her futuristic glam mini. The bold footwear (shoes? sandals? boots?) add an extra dimension of drama! Love it a lot!

Shakira

Shakira

Um…wow. Where to start? The golden locks, the crisscross-jewel-encrusted dress, the latex leg gloves… these are a few of my favorite things.

Olivia Wilde

Olivia Wilde

GQ cover girl Olivia Wilde is the current face for the new Escada fragrance “Desire Me”, and while I don’t quite desire you, Olivia, I do desire those shoes! And behold the way that shiny silvery sheath enhances her striking grey peepers!

Beyonce

Beyonce

This was the dress Beyoncé wore when she saved the day at the VMA’s after Taylor Swift got dissed by Kanye West (who I still like as a matter of fact!) B looks ravishing as always, proving that she doesn’t need to be in the spotlight to shine.

Freida Pinto

Freida Pinto

Oh how I envy the wardrobe opportunities of Freida P… and it’s all thanks to one movie. One starring role and she’s already a fashion maven, but I’m not hatin’. I just want those unaffordable Rupert Sanderson pumps – I love them so much I would sleep in them.

Well, that’s it for this week. Keep your peepers peeled for more upcoming fashion non-exclusives!

Fashion Friday: Hot Minis! 4

by Sinoun • Fashion File Fridays • Tags: , , , ,

Oh no, I still haven’t seen a decent movie to review and here’s another image-filled post – I’m running the risk of this site turning into a girly-girl gossip blog – which it is NOT!

But nonetheless, it is Friday… so this calls for another fashion entry. The good news is, the following pictures are smokin’! Let’s check them out:

beyonce

Initial reactions? Wow! Hot! Zoink! Zap! B looks phenomenal in this mullet-inspired number (note: this is the only acceptable mullet look). It’s a ravishing dress that might look ridiculous on less blessed bodies, (blessed with a personal trainer that is!) but Beyonce makes it divine, though I could do without that holy trail.

zoe-saldana

Damn Scotty, I always thought Zoe Saldana was cute, but this dress just beamed up the Star Trek starlet into super-sexy siren status! Simply out of this world. In fact, those aren’t sparkles on her dress, it’s a freakin galaxy! A galaxy of awesomeness!

bar-rafaeli

Bar Rafaeli has two good things going for her at the moment: Being Leonardo DiCaprio’s main squeeze and that scene-stealing metallic masterpiece wrapped around her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover model body. No, there’s no envy here whatsoever.

rachel-bilson

Hmm. Compared to the three pics above this picture seems kinda misplaced. I mean it’s good, it’s just not as great. I would reserve the Morticia Adam’s hair for another affair and maybe add some bling to make the dress a zinger. But it’s Rachel Bilson! Any excuse to feature her on this blog is good with me. And… the blue colour is nice!

miley1

Ok before you get all up in my grill about catering to pre-pubescents and pedophiles, let me just say that I don’t discriminate when it comes to good style. And this dress is too fantabulous to not be featured! But damn it, I hate the look of shoulders on steroids – big shoulders are the current ridiculous fashion trend again (when will they learn?!) But compared to the other over-sized monstrosities out there, this is actually tasteful and suitable. Well done Miley! Well…done.

So that wraps up another fashion Friday… I’ll be sure to bring you more stuntastic styles next week, but in the meantime, feel free to subscribe to my RSS feed for more movie news fun!


A Few Movies I Will NOT Be Watching 1

by Sinoun • Lists, Uncategorized, Updates • Tags: , , , , , ,

If there’s one thing that’s sure to trigger my anger, it’s a bad movie. And even worse, bad movies that earn top dollars at the box office. In an attempt to buck this trend (if it exists) I’ve generated a list of possibly bad movies I’ll be boycotting this year.

1. Fast and Furious

You know it’s time to fire your agent when the best they can do for you is a role reprisal of a stale franchise you did eight years ago. I mean, sure it was cool back then, maybe because we were younger and everything… but I’m guessing most of the movie’s original fanbase has grown up and moved on with their lives and no longer care about this juvenile rubbish. I bet it will be full of fast cars, hot girls, a “cool” soundtrack and bad acting by Paul Walker. Lots and lots of it – like an overflowing excess that might even spawn a FIFTH installment. Oh dear.

2. Dragonball: Evolution

Whenever I think of Dragonball I think of Asian kids with funky hair drinking bubble tea at Internet cafes in Chinatown (in my hometown of Montreal, at least). But then again, what do I know about Dragonball? I was also kind of surprised to learn that Goku would be played by a white dude – isn’t Goku Japanese? He’s not? Whatevs, as if it really matters to me.

3. Obsessed

Hmm, Ali Larter playing a character who resembles her ‘Heroes’ counterpart? I think I’ll pass. And I’m a Beyonce fan, but only when she’s singing. This movie looks to be nonsensical, and thus non-enjoyable. Better suited for NBC as a late-night thriller…or something. (My apologies to Zac!)

This is all that comes to mind right now, but I’m sure there’ll be plenty more to add, for bad movies are never in short supply.
