OK, so to elaborate a bit on what Lize is explaining in her last post, I have scrounged up some pretty awful pics of our young Hollywood starlets right now. Sadly it was way too easy to conjure up this little slideshow. Sob, sniff, and tear for the good old days when young A-list girls were experimental and actually used their fame and money to get unreal pieces of couture and stretch the imaginations of us all regarding our fashion choices.
Unfortunately, here we are in the day and age of cut off jean shorts, tacky boots, plaid shirts galore, beanie knit hats, and Ray Bans. Living in LA, I honestly get beyond tired of this look because it's everyones go to. It 's like "Oh, well if I put on my eccentric edgy east side looking plaid on with a beanie... I am all pulled together, looking effortless and trendy!" Ummm. Wrong. It's a sloppy, overdone, unisex look that should have died a few years ago. I am fed up to here with it because LA is the epicenter of these offenders. Gah! What happened to killer babydoll dresses, sick unique tops, obscure boots (think Carol Christian Poell) and actual vintage sunglasses that had character (think the unreal Ted Lapidus frames Nicole used to don everyday). These girls are lazy with their get-ups and then throw on a $2000 handbag to attempt to make it look OK. That's even worse... Don't dress like a total slob who rolled out of bed and then grab your Givenchy and think it's gonna save your outfit. It doesn't! Ohhh... girls. You all need a seminar from our old pros. Emma Roberts, you are exempt because you are perfect for your age and Liza already did a post on your cuteness.
K, so here is my collection of terrible ensembles. Get ready! You may need to shut your eyes!!

Miley Cyrus:
This is what 98% of LA looks like...
OK, really? The boots, for one, are awful. Then paired with black tights and that plaid skirt??? OMG and then there goes the cheap leather jacket trend to tie it all together... This might be the worst look I found.
I see that you are trying to be rock chic here Miley... But those boots honey. Ohhhh those boots. It's like two Indian Care Bears on your feet.
Taylor Swift:
Whoa. Plaid. Shocker.
And again, but now belted. Even worse! Notice my worst trend of all time in my interview... "anything belted." Ugh. I can barely look at this and don't get me started on those Steve Madden flats that are a direct rip off of Colleen Cordero.
This striped dress with those winter looking tights? What is wrong with her head making these decisions? Who said those two go together? Agh! And the scarf! Throw it in a nearby garbage! It's the color of mustard!
Nina Dobrev:
AKA: "The worst beanie offender ever"
OK. Why is her hair perfectly curled to throw this absurd beanie on over it? She clearly is in love with the look. Even more depressing because it's deliberate. Ian run away and come to my house because I am in love with you.
The second worst look in this whole collection. First... those boots are friggin' terrible. I think Johnny Depp wore the same ones in Pirates of the Caribbean. Then who wears a black short dress with a plaid shirt over it?!!? Whaaaat? And then an aqua beanie with a matching bag? Oh my Lord. I can't handle the color palette of this whole thing. The only thing OK about this whole photo is the In N' Out bag she is holding.
Again... perfectly straightened hair to throw this dumb hat on.
The boots and dress strike again. And of course the beanie makes it's usual cameo.
Selena Gomez:
Typical LA ensemble with a Justin Bieber look- a -like... lol.
What is this dress??? Ahhhh!! And this random cheap plastic blue belt around it?
80's prom anyone? Selena is so terrible at dressing like she is 35.
Ashley Tisdale:
AKA: "big IT bag snob"
Sorry babe. Your Nightingale Givenchy doesn't save this outfit.
Electric blue pants with fringed yellow thong sandals. Um, ok...
Louis scarf and bag everywhere. Who wears the bag WITH a matching scarf?!! Ahhhhh!
What are these dresses??? For a red carpet event? Seriously? They look like little Easter eggs.
Vanessa Hudgens:
She is the worst because of the way she carries herself. She acts like she has the best style which is even worse! K, first of all... where are your pants? Eghhh... and of course... it's plaid with Ray Bans.
Too long for you trousers with flip flips anyone? Your Motorcycle Le Dix Balenciaga doesn't help this.
Ahhh, this dress and that bag?? What!!! This is NOT what boho chic is supposed to look like.
I can't even talk about those cheetah pants that are on the left, she looks like an expectant mother in the middle, and she is trying to be Mary-Kate in the last one. Oh this is so bad bad bad.
