Do the Blink Test Before You Leave Home

I know this necklace is  worth a fortune, and Nicole is probably being closely followed by some big dudes with guns to make sure nobody tries to abscond with the jewels, but really it’s just too much.  Yes you can use a nice big necklace to distract from other body parts that you don’t want people to notice, but this is just overboard.  Nicole has already announced that she’s pregnant, so why would she need to distract from that almost imperceptible baby bump?

   So how do you do the blink test?  Stand in front a mirror and shut your eyes for three seconds, open them and see what you focus on first – is your outfit working or not? 

Chanel got it right – take something off before you leave the house.

Always in Style

Helen Mirren is always classy – she knows just how to dress herself and year after year turns up to the Oscars in fantastic frocks that work so well for her.  2008 is no exception.  Some of the younger gals should take a leaf out of her book.
