Going Down Under and Other Reality Show Bits

Hola Foxy Mamacita's
I hope everyone caught the premiere of Australia's Next Top Model. Can you say BORING??? I was waiting about 3 months for that show and its not that great. I will continue watching it for a few reasons.

1. I have nothing else to watch at that time
   
2. It may get better
3. I love the Aussie accent

I think if some of these girls would compete with the American contestants.. they'd be CRUSHED. I just thought it was a sad remake but... who knows.. maybe that was a 1st episode blunder.
Today... I saw a total of 3 consecutive reality shows. I love that new Pussycat Dolls Present : The Search for the Next Doll. I guess dancing shows seem to get my a little hyped. Sadly, I can tell they didn't look for vocal talent because overall.. the girls are pretty week but these chicks kick but dancing. I really think I recognize one of the girls from Making The Band 3. but who knows... Next Up was The Agency. I honestly feel bad for those people who do not grasp what it takes to be a model. All these girls coming to the casting that are clearly too short or out of shape. Not every pretty face is a model. That Becky character, keeps me hooked. She is definitely a ..... ( a word i will not use on this blog) but not a nice lady and reminds me of some people I know. I cannot stress more to people who want to model, WATCH THE BLOODY SHOW! Lastly, We had Janice Dickinson.
She entertains me. I'm very happy they have a nice looking Dark Skin Guy into the agency now but why did she have to fire Marcus Foy. He was such a cutie. MARK MY WORDS DIVA'S... HE WILL WORK AGAIN.

NOW MOST IMPORTANTLY... FASHION!!!!!!!!!!!

Right now my favorite style accessory is the Beret. I have alway been a hat girl but the beret is definitely stylish and goes with an assortment of things and can be dressed up or down. When I went to my interview last week, I was having a pretty bad hair day ( well a bad hair weekend). I slapped one of these bad boys on and I felt like a new women.
Lola Saks Fifth Avenue - $75.00

Now this may seem a little pricey for a person who may not wear this style of head wear but it is well worth the investment if you want quality. I guaranteed you will feel like a Parisian Goddess.

Also in this time of year, my lips seem to get a little chapped and I am definitely a lip balm/ gloss whore. While surfing, I found an article on stylebakery.com

Heres the article below... I am addicted to the C.O Bigelow line
