Baby Don't Hurt Me, No More

So maybe the decade technically ended last New Years, but I missed the boat. With 2010 rolled up in there The Fitting Room offers you without further adieu, the Top Ten Worst Fashion & Beauty Trends (that I could think of) of the Past Decade!

1.
Kate Gosselin, a woman who is famous for nothing but popping out a bunch of rugrats, gets one more star in her book as far as I am concerned. Kate should also be famous for introducing America to the absolute worst haircut of the decade. Whomever told her this was a good idea needs their cosmetology license stripped immediately.


2.
Over tanning. Aside from being dangerous to your health, it's also an eyesore. As if Paris isn't dirty enough already, I just want to wipe her face. Eggghhh.


3.

Uggs- just don't do it. I don't care if they're comfortable. Being naked is comfortable too and generally you don't do that in public. Don't believe me? See what the Husband of the Year has to say about it- he makes some good points as well.


4.
Dresses over pants. What's the point really?

5 & 6.
Ladies and gentleman, Pete Wentz doing us the pleasure of killing two birds with one stone- men with bangs & men wearing makeup. Not hot even if you're into that semigay straight man thing. What? It's not metro, it's punk? Please, there is nothing bad boy about a man who trims his bangs and is running a few minutes late because he has to apply his guy liner. No thank you.


7.
Lady Gaga. Enough said.



8.
Hair extensions. Trust me ladies, you'd look better with short hair.

9.
Anything to do with New Jersey.


10.
"Replica" designer bags. Let's be honest, the real designer ones aren't that great either, so what's the point of carrying around a fake one? If you're playing rich, trust me, the jig is up when people get a glimpse of your car and or apartment. A faux bag is fooling no one.

2011 Sneak Peek


Ringing in the New Year with yet another Vogue cover under her belt is American actress Natalie Portman. Portman wears a gorgeous J. Mendel dress shown on the runway below and promotes her new movie The Black Swan. Add 8" to the actresses slight 5'3" frame and I think I would believe her a model.

Dress by J. Mendel which btw- does NOT resemble the Rodarte on a previous cover with the exception that they are both shades of pink. US Vogue January 2011.

Next up is a concoction of two of my least favorites, model Lily Dondaldson shot by photographer Terry Richardson for the January 2011 issue of Harpers Bazaar. Who knew so much sleaze could fit into one magazine issue? I am offering up a mighty fine reward for anyone who can give me a good, legitimate reason that either of these two are still working.

She's not cute & I have a sneaking suspicion she's on something or has something because she itches a lot for a girl who's clean. He's a confirmed pervert & public masturbator. Harpers, you couldn't find better? I am boycotting.

And finally, I would like to thank Givenchy for keeping it awesome. The 2011 campaign featuring Daphne Groeneveld of Women and albino model Stephen Thompson is stunning- absolutely frame able.

Nickle and Dimed


Super mannequins Karmen Pedaru(pictured above) and Anna Jagodzinska are suing their former agency Next Models claiming that since they have left to seek other representation Next has flat out refused to pay them what they are allegedly still owed. An issue that is all too familiar to me personally, I am rooting for these girls to take them to the cleaners. For all the details head on over to Jezebel to read Jenna Sauers interesting article.
