When you look at celebrities in the true sense of the word, you realise that they are like you and I. They have no clue what is in fashion, when left to their own devices. You can tell which stars basically dressed themselves just by looking at pictures and also when they consulted a stylist. Very few are phenomenal when left to their own devices. Though there are some wildly talented stylists, others take their cues solely from the fashion runways (über-stylist Rachel Zoe famously makes all her girls look just like her). For these glamour pros, the main goal is to keep their clients off the worst-dressed lists — basically to not rock the boat. They all look like ANTM wannabes.

In the picture above, you can see the “magic” was created by a stylist. One with a litle more imagination than the other. She added a belt. The trio all have the same strapless dress, long limp hair and blah!!! They ALL look like they could be going to a wedding.
You could count on stars in the past to give you style you could not get away with. Now they are just “celeb”bots, about as recognisable as your high school friend, office co-worker - oh, you know the one that dresses better than the rest of you. Yeah, thats how exciting they are. Boring! Boring! Boring! Street fashion is a heck of a lot better to look at.
The sad part is, they paid someone to make them look slightly above average.
These Barbie-fied stars are “giving you fashion, they’re not giving you style,” said Michael Schmidt, a local clothing and jewelry designer who’s made custom pieces for almost every iconic music artist in the last 20 years, including Cher, Madonna, Tina Turner, Aerosmith and Elton John. “They’re not interested in being stylistically daring or having a unique place in the world. They just want to be a mouthpiece for fashion so they can end up on the covers of magazines.”

Please ladies, kick it up a notch! Remember Madonna and her bleached hair and bangles, cone bra etc. Aha! thats superstar behaviour.  Today, as Simon Cowell would to these new celebrities ” You are rather forgettable” They have become interchangeable, nobody really stands out anymore.

Amy Winehouse, one of “Hollywood’s Biggest Fashion Offenders” in a recent In Touch magazine spread, was cited for looking “more like a cleaning lady than a Grammy winner.” The photos showed the British singer sporting her trademark morning-after beehive, head scarf and winged cat’s-eye eyeliner: the rare, rock-inspired look that’s being imitated on the streets today. In one photo, she’s puffing on a cigarette with no hands, Keith Richards-style.

Does she look like a Grammy winner? Heck no. She looks like a rock star so does Gwen Stefani.
