11/18/2006: "A Mixed Bag"
Phew! These are busy times!
Miss Mimi (or perhaps "Mini" is more appropriate these days!
) steps out for the 7th Annual Wish Night Awards Gala in this cute burgundy mini, which beautifully complements her tanned complexion. A definite step up from last week's black nightmare, this one actually does her figure a few favors!
First off, the more demure neckline works wonders for her breasts, keeping them a little more covered up and less in-your-face than usual. Her legs are looking better than ever, although the hemline could be a bit lower for a more elongating effect (whatever happened to her "certain length" philosophy she explained on MTV Cribs - that was pure science right there!). And those metallic Christian Louboutins are simply to die for!
So, why the "mixed bag" title, you may ask. Well, there are few things that bring down the overall appearance, the most glaring being her make-up.
WHAT is up with that shiny, uneven, orange foundation, paired with those pale pink lips (which don't at all match the color of the dress, by the way)?! That skin make-up doesn't do her any favors, it only makes her look sweaty and helps to accentuate the fine lines under her eyes. Why is that make-up artist of hers around 24/7, if not for touch-ups?
A real shame since her hair color looks the best it has in years!
Secondly, a not as big a deal, but still very noticeable; the jewelry. It looks quite tacky, especially combined with this type of ensemble.
A simpler necklace, a lighter shade of foundation and perhaps a burgundy-colored lipstick to match the dress would have made a world of difference.
Grade: B-
