dear angelina jolie

I really hope this blog doesn't offend anyone, so if you are an Angelina Jolie fan, you might want to clean out your purse or hose down the dog instead of perusing this post. That being said, I really do try to be kind most of the time. But when I get a burr under my biscuit about something...well, let's just say I'm about as balky as a half-home mule after plowin' day. The whole "Brangelina-debacle" is still a sore subject with me, and I'm sure it colors my opinions. Not to mention that the entertainment industry seems to think they're all that and a bag of chips and honestly, I just don't get it. THEY-MEMORIZE-LINES-FOR-A-LIVING...big-freegin-whoop-dee-doo. It's not like they invented sugared cereal or disposable diapers.

Anyway, everyone was fawning all over themselves at Cannes when Brad and Angelina made their entrance to promote the movie, "Tree of Life". So if you'll indulge me, let me just point out a couple things.

I seriously wondered how long it would be after the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton that I would see this. "Ding! Johnny, tell the lucky couple what they've won..."

Second, I'm so not in love with this Versace gown! Am I the only one on the planet that thinks it's too prom-esque and ill-fitting? That thing should fit like a second skin across the bodice...to the point that she's sucking on an oxygen tank to get a breath.

And if I can find a similar look for less for online then really, someone needs to either quit selecting their own clothing or "ire-fay their stylist-aye".

These are the dresses I would have started with...[I'm especially fond of the Elie Saab]

Monique Lhuillier ~ Elie Saab

Halston ~ Versace Atelier

And then last, but certainly not least...a little bit of wisdom that my second cousin Myrtle May used to say, "What says the most about who you trully are is who you are when no one else is looking."
