The Harsh Light of Day

Andrew G & Friend

Well firstly thank god he’s cut that awful hair. I may have been alone but I never ever though Farrah Fawcett was the style icon for men! Andy is certainly a metro-sexual kinda guy isn’t he? Not that there’s anything wrong with that, it’s just phrases like ‘nancy boy’ and ‘wussy wonder’ always ring through my mind when I see him and what he’s wearing.

Annalise Seubert

This is what I would consider the ultimate model look! It’s so very super elegant, it makes you want to stop eating the 99% light fat free no carbs organic yoghurt you just bought, and it’s strangely unattractive. I understand that in God’ crayon box there are different colours but there is a reason red and blue and green get used first, and grey and black and brown are the last to survive. I think there’s something in that for all us, don’t you?

Camilla Freeman & David Topper vs Sophie Faulkner

I never saw the invitation to the Moet & Chandon Grand Vintage 2000 Launch, and I think firstly, there is something drastically wrong with that. It’s not like I wouldn’t have gone! But back to other people, if the unseen invitation has said dress: black fashionable lace long sleeved dress with choice of shoe, hosiery ensemble, then both Camilla and Sophie passed with flying colours. And what they should both be happy about is, in my book, both shoe and hosiery ensemble choices were great. The winter opaque vs the sexy leg – feel free to voice an opinion?

Emily Booth

I’ve gone off shore for this one. It’s Emily Booth at the LA premiere of Clubland, which has been stupidly renamed Introducing the Dwights, because Americans have real trouble with subtly (I suppose their current foreign policy should already have alerted me). Still, after Em’s hot as ice debut in blue last week, she’s disappointed me a little here. Sure, the flouncy hair is envy making, and who wouldn’t kill for that figure but Em, I could put this together. And if I can realistically achieve what you’re wearing, then you’re not doing your job.

Eva Galambos

Poor little Eva actually looks in pain and that may have something to do with the fact she saw her reflection! While the dress is okay, and let’s just remember it’s not great, not at all. She’s covered it with a tea cosy in case she gets cold and forgot to adhere to the rules of red carpet dressing: as Fergie spells it out so clearly, it’s about being G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S.

Gorgi Quill

Everything says I should hate it but for some strange reason, and it’s really strange because I can’t really tell you, I actually like it. I think it has something to do with bold colour, tiny waist and the best attempt at Janey Glenn’s hair style from Girls Just Wanna Have Fun that I have ever seen, bar Sarah Jessica’s Parker’s original look!

Giaan Rooney

It could be worse, but oh dear Giaan, it could be so much better. Firstly, I know you probably like being able to grow you’re hair long now that you don’t have to stuff it all under a cap, but cut it, just cut it. Don’t ask questions (if you must the words length, dragging and horsey are clues). Secondly, I’m not entirely sure what’s going with your stomach area but why didn’t you tighten the belt? Because right now, it’s give you this weird Lego block look.

James Mathison

Okay it’s time to out myself as a closest James fan. I think he’s incredibly cute boy next door with a sense of humour and I think he is the brains behind the Andy G operation. I also believe, like any good crush, that if we met, he would totally fall in love with me and my quirky sense of humour. Crush aside – he looks particular preppy rocker cute here. So high five back at you James, and you know, if you ever need a date for the ARIA’s, I’m totally good to go!

Kath Klunder

Sure Kath, we know Sydney have been having unseasonably cold weather recently but there’s no need to telegraph it with your nipples! I’d also venture onto a big side boob alert. And sure it’s somewhat sexy and you’ve done well to resist overpowering necklace – it’s just a little too saucy for Moet’s liking (I speak for Moet!).

Lisa McCune

If Lis were at the launch of a new TV series about a nun who boards a vessel full of lusty sailors and imparts to them each week, wisdom, faith and just a bit of unresolved sexual tension with most likely the Captain of the Ship, that would slowly build up to the season finale where an explosion of some kind would require the Nun and Captain to be stuck in a particular area of the ship, then Lis is wearing the right outfit. If it’s something else then maybe, I’d steer clear of the Sally Field Flying Nun-esque sleeves.

Saskia Burmeister

I’ll admit that Saskia has a certain major factor. Let’s face it, she’s got a stunning face with gorgeous smile and boy do I want her hair, I may actually attempt that hairstyle tomorrow – stand by for failure. However, I worry about putting her in such close proximity to Lisa McCune. I worry this may seriously deride her fashion coolness and I believe we are seeing the beginnings of this. No Sasky, stay strong and fight against the McCune-ness of wearing floating fabrics, reflective fabrics or weird overshirty fabrics!

The Cross

This isn’t a fashion criticism as such, but I would just think that since I had so much trouble checking some banners into Qantas the other day, how these resourceful people got a cross on board! I’m pretty sure it exceeds the recommended sizes of carry-ons and if I’m not mistaken it could also be used as a weapon.
