Back-a-licious in a light aqua, henna-print jersey gown, Sienna walked the red carpet resplendently at tonight's BAFTA Awards in London where she was nominated for two awards: sexiest back in the business and most consistently fierce eye makeup.
Naturally, she won in both categories.
Where would one most likely see such a dress in the District?
Perhaps at the Round Robin for 27th birthday celebration cocktails. Perched on a stool, of course, so the wearer's back could be envied and desired properly.
Or, maybe at a dress-code-not-specified party hosted by someone else's company. Before you do this, however, be sure to get down pat a believable delivery of the following line: "Oh, I'm so embarrassed, I had NO idea I would be so overdressed!"
Then there's my personal favorite: at a black-tie wedding of a bride you've been waiting to teach the sorry-but-you're-not-the-hottest-one-in-this-friendship lesson.

Sienna's loveliness parade marches on
This gown is best enjoyed while sipping a neat Macallan 18 with a water-back.

looks vintage. beautiful.
back-a-licious is right. wow.
so this is your b-day dress huh? not bad.
I don't think I've ever seen a woman as comfortable with her body as Sienna is.
Well, maybe one other woman...
Subtle, NYC admirer, *real* subtle.
never liked her before, but you're turning me onto her.
love the YouTube clip from yesterday. you should be living that life!
to "West Coast devotee":
You're right, I *should* be living that life...but only a couple of days a week. I honestly couldn't keep up with all the indulgent self-absorption.
Yes, that was a joke :-)
I wasn't trying to be subtle, but I wasn't trying to be vulgar, either.
By implying that a woman is comfortable with her body isn't meant to be sexually charged. I'm just sayin' that she's confident in her looks and her figure to a point where it's really striking. These are the women who wear whatever they want, whether it's shorts or a dress or a suit, and you know they think they are the most attractive one in the room everytime they enter. They may or may not be, but that they *think* they are is incredibly sexy.
Johanna's had that for as long as I've known her...about 8 years now, is it?
9 years in Septebmer.
And yeah, I guess I sorta do have that full-of-myself attitude when I walk into a room. Unless, that is, it's a room filled with China experts, all of whom just read my article on CMC leadership trends.
THEN I get nervous.
And that's where the needed boost from my confidence color comes in handy...
