Housewife in Hollywood - housewifeinhollywood.com

I’m not a trendy dresser and I don’t care much for designer labels. I’d rather clean my house in my pajamas instead of looking polished like June Cleaver.

When I’m out doing non-housewife things, my attire tends to be the same day after day and I love it that way. If I’m not wearing my favorite GAP low rise boot-cut stretch jeans, with a layered printed T, then I’m probably not in a good mood. I’ve tried wearing more grown up outfits, like polo shirts, cropped pants, and capris; you know the usual housewife of 2008 costume, but it just brings me down. I have a collection of what I call, my Hollywood T’s, thanks to Hot Topic, and Target. There’s no Rodeo Drive shopping for this housewife.

I need to polish my wardrobe a bit, maybe not like June Cleaver, but more like Eva Longoria Parker. I’ve been thumbing through gossip mags, and searching internet sites for the latest Hollywood fashions. Eonline.com has helpful pics of who I shouldn’t dress like in their Fashion Police photo gallery.

Browsing through the magazine rack you can find a plethora of style knowledge.
From what I’ve learned from my fashion studies there are a few things I could pick up that might help me appear less housewife and more Hollywood.

I could ditch my $15 shades and throw a pair of Chanel sunglasses into my Vallentino oversized studded bag.

I’d be turning heads sporting the Gladiator inspired sandal by Jimmy Choo, not to mention twisting my ankle with the size of their heels.

With the prices of these designer accessories I won’t have a dime for anything else. If I was a celebrity I’m not certain I’d be donning these items with pride. I’d be more like Britney Spears running into Target after her stop at Starbucks. I’d miss my under $25 hand bag I still call my purse, and my black wedges from Famous Footwear. I’d much rather shop online at perpetualkid.com and 80stees.com

Like I’ve said before, the housewife part is true, Hollywood is just a metaphor.
