She looks like she raided her teenage granddaughter's closet in most of the outfits. The smocked waist minidress with leather biker jacket? Um, no. An oversized navy suit jacket with black capri pants? Just looks like she has no idea how to pair career-wear. LH to me = classy and sophisticated, and the clothes in the slideshow are not.

The hyperlink on the main page pops up a pic of LH in a vibrant blue blouse under what looks like an orange double cloth coat. And one of her quotes specifically refers to wearing blue with orange. Yes indeed, they do read the blogs.

Now ...ok, dashed thru Lauren's words of wisdom. Now I love Lauren Hutton, have for longer than I will admit, she's great, I love her stance, I love her spunk, I love her individuality, her make-up doesn't quite work for my skin tones but I love the concept… So I say this with all respect and with all due deference, I do not love seeing her submit to JL stylings. Some dear relatives of mine are convinced that when you are tall and thin and have great jewelry and fabulous hair, it doesn't matter what you wear. Um, I'd like to find this out by experience before passing judgment. Anyway, Lauren is one of those people who would look great in anything, but IMHO I think she looks greater in some of those looks than in others. <br /><br />That said, after all these months of looking at JC runway & catalog models who look like preschoolers who got dressed all by themselves and accessorized out of Nana's dress-up box, SEEING LAUREN IS A PLEASURE.wellfedfredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07118802089389931227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-31451386316990214122010-12-01T21:01:39.124-05:002010-12-01T21:01:39.124-05:00wellfedfred, don't feel bad.
