I don't get too involved in celebrity fashion. Nor do I get too involved in the conversations that start with, "Did you see what she was wearing?" And I've generally been known to defend celebrities when they get taken to the cleaners over gaining a bit of weight.
But Jessica Simpson is really starting to make me crazy.
About a year ago - was that a year ago? - there was a whole controversy of Jessica and her "mom jeans." Very high-waisted and just not cute. They made her look...well, bad. Let's call it what it was: a poor fashion decision.
Part of my irritation with Jessica Simpson is that she complains when people "objectify" her and make derogatory comments over whether she's gained weight - when she literally made a name for herself many years ago in her career by wearing short shorts and skimpy outfits where her top was falling out of her shirt. She seems to want all the great press but none of the bad - and it doesn't happen that way, honey.
No matter what fashion craze is hitting the runways, every curvy woman out there (myself included) just knows that sometimes things don't work with your body type. That's ok! And you can't blame it on your stylist. Every woman I know checks herself out in the mirror at least once before leaving the house, right? If you look like an idiot, well, it's your own fault.
Bottom line: Jessica and her complaining about the mom jeans and placing blame on her stylist and badmouthing the media for talking about her figure - when that's how she's made her living - makes my head spin.
So then tonight I'm on People.com and I see this:
Not. Cute.
Seriously. You'd think Jessica would have learned from the last unflattering, high-waisted, overprinted, pocketed ensemble, wouldn't you?
