Who is She Wearing?


Samantha Harris co-hosted ABC's Dancing with the Stars last evening in a refreshing red gown. Why was this Lady-in-Red such a sight to see? Those pockets, people! They add a hint of casual cool to this otherwise stuffy ballgown. So, who is she wearing? I'm dying to know.

Spotted: Ugly Betty's Jacket in My Closet...Yikes




Uh oh. I was just catching up on last Thursday's episode of Ugly Betty when I happened to alarmingly notice that Betty was sporting the same H&M tweed jacket that I had just purchased recently on sale in Walnut Creek.

I rewound the scene three of four times and darted my eyes between my computer screen and the multicolor tweed left sleeve that was hung so neatly and proudly in my closet. The bright red sale "$30" ticket still attached. 

I panicked. No one wants to see their clothes on a character referred to as UGLY Betty. That's not a good sign. It's great when you notice a celebrity wearing the same Jessica Elliot gold wishbone necklace that dangles gracefully from your neck. But it's another to see your new purchase on TV's most poorly dressed character. 

Personally, I believe the jacket is reminiscent of a Chanel tweed skirt suit. Of course, when I wear mine, it will not be layered over some brightly patterned silk blouse with a giant bow protruding out from beneath. I'll pair it with a simple tee, dark denim skinnies, and tasteful neutral heels. Check out how MTV's The City star Whitney Port styled a similar jacket and transformed the look from Ugly Betty to Total Betty.

Style Icon: Shayne Lamas

This Malibu soap star had the best style on ABC's The Bachelor: London Calling. Matt Grant was the easy to love bachelor with an irresistibly charming British accent. Shayne wore huge baggy tshirts lounging around the mansion, oversized white watches, lots and lots of full scarves, and bold, look at me headbands.

Inspired, I grabbed an oversized, crystalized white watch from B.P. and had my goddess hair stylist, Nicole Briana, give me similar white blonde, layered locks.

She won the grand prize on the show: Matt Grant. He proposed with a gawking $65,000 2.85 carat diamond ring. They split up. Pause for a not surprised eye roll. She said she plans to keep the rock "safe and clean and in a glass box- like a glass slipper" (www.thehollywoodgossip.com).

Here's to a not so successful, yet totally glamorous, Cinderella story.
