Sharon Stone at An Evening with Women

Kori Ellis — Sun, 26 Apr 2009 19:42:59 +0000

I’ll hand it to Sharon Stone. Her face looks absolutely wonderful these days. In my opinion, she was looking haggered for a while, but has seemed to pull it together by adding a little weight (as well as probably having a little more work done).

Sharon was one of the many celebrities at “An Evening with Women: Celebrating Art, Music & Equality” in Beverly Hills on Friday. As you can see below, it’s not just her face that is looking good these days. Her body is pretty hot for a 50-something year old woman too.

Her coral colored dress and pointed black pumps are absolutely fabulous. Everyone should have a pair of pumps like these. Though pointy pumps will do some damage to your feet in the long-term if you wear them all day every day, they are perfect for special occasions. They are feminine, sexy and sophisticated.

As you can see, the only trouble Sharon Stone seems to be having is keep “the girls” in place. With a low-cut, open back dress like this, it’s hard to keep everything in its place.

Are you looking for a pair of black pointed pumps? Here are five pairs that I adore — all priced under $80 each.

Lady Gaga: Gaudy in Gold

Kori Ellis — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 10:31:13 +0000

Lady Gaga is trying to single-handedly destroy the fashion world with her atrocious outfits. Here she arrives to attend the Hogan Party in Paris wearing an extremely large black hat … and it gets worse from there.

Everything about her gold dress is atrocious, from the tight bodice to the bubble mini skirt. And then there’s the shoes.

Bootie-lovers shield your eyes. I’m not sure the designer of these lace-up booties but they are NOT Ga-ga-gorgeous. She’s a trainwreck!

What do you think of Lady Gaga’s ensemble? Why do we even care about her? I mean, I give her credit as a songwriter (and I guess as a singer) but she’s killing me with her (lack of) fashion sense.

For more celebrity fashion commentary, check out Snarkstress every day. She showed us a little too much of Lady Gaga earlier this week!

Shoes at the People’s Choice Awards

Kori Ellis — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 04:21:41 +0000

If you were watching the 35th Annual People’s Choice Awards on Wednesday, you certainly know there were a variety of fantastic fashions (as well as some disasters).

In case you missed out on some of the celebrities, check out Celeb Look and Snarkstress (as well as all around the Beauty & Style Channel) for a look at the gowns.

As for the shoes, Here are two that I think are worth noting.

Jordin Sparks was wearing a blue shiny dress that was little too much like 80’s prom for me. But her jeweled gold sandals were gorgeous.

Jennie Garth was obviously looking for a way to add some glamour to her simple black dress. But I think she should have chosen a shoe with a higher heel. These make her legs look a little too stumpy.

I do like that she kept her look simple though. She finished it off with a black beaded clutch, red lips and red nails.

Sarah Jessica Parker’s Pointy Pumps

Kori Ellis — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 04:59:58 +0000

Sarah Jessica Parker attended the Mobile Art Chanel Contemporary Art Container Opening in New York this week. I thought she looked very elegant and sophisticated. But what’s with her shoes?

Sometimes pointed pumps can be too pointed. I would like to have seen her in a round toe pump or something a little less harsh.

What do you think over Sarah Jessica Parker’s pumps?

Lindsay Lohan in Balenciaga

Kori Ellis — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 10:28:44 +0000

When Lindsay Lohan arrived at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood this weekend, she was wearing these Balenciaga leather boots with mirror heels and carrying a Balenciaga bag, of course. (And I thought I was pale!)

A few months ago, we saw Nicole Richie in the same shoes. I didn’t like them then, I don’t like them now.

These shoes (I’m not sure whether to call them shoes or boots) will cost you about $1,500. Do you like them? I wouldn’t even buy them for $150.

Here’s a close-up …
