I’m thinking today’s word of the day is ALMOST. I love the shoes that both of these women are wearing and think that the footwear selection goes purrfectly with the dresses. Yet, I’m not sold on the dresses!

The red dress just doesn’t sit right for me. The young lady wearing it seems to have a nice shape but it just isn’t flattered by the cut of the dress. And why oh why did she think she needed to have her Louis Vuitton in the picture? She should have left Louis home and brought a simple gold bag to match her shoes. Also, let’s trade the watch for a bracelet.

As for her friend, I really like this dress, even though I don’t want to! There is a lot going on it it yet it all blends together very well. The reason I’m including her in the H.A.M. category has to do with the appearance of the material. There’s just something about it that doesn’t sit right with me. Also, there is the association factor!

There is never a reason to come out the house with your friend looking like a H.A.M. if you’re Fashion Forward. That just isn’t right.

I want to start with the fact that I think I own those shorts in black! If they’re the same ones they have to be one of the most comfortable pairs of shorts I have ever owned. Shout out to Rampage for the 97% cotton 3% spandex blend!!!

The color of the shorts is really nice, as well as seeing a woman who knows that her shorts don’t have to always be painted on to be sexy. Unfortunately, once we stop talking about the shorts I don’t really have anything else nice to say.

Well, that’s not completely true. I like the color of her shoe but not the actual design. If you’re going to wear those shorts to a club they need a sexy shoe and the one she’s wearing just isn’t it.

The shirt, which is what I’m going to guess that she was trying to match the shoe with looks like a pattern that should be left on an infant’s summer dress.

To step this outfit up I would suggest trying a gold/bronze shirt to match her bangles and earrings and finding a sexy sandal.
