Not outfits she's actually worn. But as that I've typd this, it occurs to me that I'm alredy sick of seeing/discussing her. You probably are, as well. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, the snark was directed towards her style, not your critique.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510730519686659039.post-26799699253853704192007-11-28T11:36:00.000-05:002007-11-28T11:36:00.000-05:00I don't think Beyonce normally looks like a house ...I don't think Beyonce normally looks like a house but in this dress, sorry, she does.

There is definitely a sensuality associated with it. Fat to me just means untoned and overweight in all the wrong places.<BR/><BR/>The message of these posts as I understand it is clearly not to rip apart the stars but instead to point out to us (through their mistakes) what looks best on what body type. J has made no secret that she think clothes look best on a thinner frame, but I think she's also been up front that she appreciates curvier women as well. Let's not try and paint her with a prejudiced brush here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510730519686659039.post-27968238194093424722007-11-28T10:28:00.000-05:002007-11-28T10:28:00.000-05:00Um, because to me, the word "zaftig" doesn't neces...Um, because to me, the word "zaftig" doesn't necessarily mean "fat". In my view, a zaftig woman has great hourglass proportions but more meat on her bones than say, a size 4 or 6. A fat woman, on the other hand, brings to mind a perfect Pringle Can shape. You know, 38-38-38?<BR/><BR/>And the last time I included Beyonce in one of these features I was able to find a dress that looked much more flattering to her shape. I'm sure I can do it again, but frankly, she does this kind of tight/tight/tight thing a lot, so it does take more time to find an example of something *I* like on her.<BR/><BR/>Those of you who read this site often know that I rarely if ever criticize without providing alternative options. If you just want ripping down, go to GFY -- those ladies have it down to an art and it's beautiful to watch them in action.<BR/><BR/>best,<BR/>JJohannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07954204237601410494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510730519686659039.post-58987782445832131102007-11-28T10:05:00.000-05:002007-11-28T10:05:00.000-05:00Hey Johanna, why don't you do a post providing som...Hey Johanna, why don't you do a post providing some sample outfits that Beyonce would look better in?
