who's turn is it to watch cameron diaz?

As many of you know, Cameron Diaz has been a regular of mine in the fashion offender file. I feel like she's stuck in a frat-party-style-limbo, and someone needs to help her reinvent herself as she nears the 40 year old mark. I think in every woman's life there comes a day when she realizes, "Hey, I'm not 18 anymore." Like the first time you're in the grocery store checkout line and the bag boy refers to you as "maam" instead of "miss"...and you feel your ovaries get crispy. I'm not saying that Cameron is ready for Naturalizer shoes and Liz Claiborne separates, but I do think it's time to lower the hemlines and start wearing pants that let her lady parts breathe. Can I get an 'Amen'?

I can't remember where I heard this, but it always stuck with me as a really good style tip..."Unless you want to look like a hooker, the higher the hemline, the lower the heel"...ie: the romper set above. I think I could have tolerated that look a little bit more if she had worn a cute flat or an espadrille. But I guess when you're touted as having great gams, you probably always gravitate toward a torturous bunyon busting pump to elongate the leg.

And just a couple comments on hair and makeup...

1)Makeup...wear some.

2)Hair...do something...anything...please.

Just so you don't think I'm always a negative nellie, I did think she looked pretty fantastic in the Berlin black jumpsuit and the London shirt dress. Still youthful and chic, but less sophomoric. Both very nicely styled and appropriate for a 38 year old actress promoting her latest fluff-o summer flick.

A couple design ideas from moi to vous. Miss Bea.
