[ you know you watch too much What Not to Wear when... ]

To use a very common Utah term, OH. MY. HECK.

Seriously, people. I have been stuck in my house SO much that I leave the TV on most of the day while I get random work done, and most of the time, it is on What Not to Wear on TLC. Either that, or Clean House on Style.

And it is destroying my life.

Okay, not really. In truth, I absolutely LOVE Stacy and Clinton.

But I went shopping for clothes the other day, and I found myself pointing at clothes and telling my friend: "I can't wear that. Stacy says it won't flatter my butt..." amongst plenty of other comments to myself.

But overall, here's the top 10 things I've learned from my beloved Stacy and Clinton:

1. Jean Choice: Only wear skinny jeans if you have a small frame and are very curve-less. *This one does not apply to me. Sad day.*

2. Waistlines: Always look for dresses and tops that have a cinching action around the waistline (i.e., belt, ribbon, tie, etc.). This will accentuate the best part of women -- their waists! *I struggle with this one because I have an excessively large bust and so I feel self-conscious about it.*

3. Fit: Find clothes that fit the largest part of your body, then tailor the clothes to fit the rest of it. *Again, I have issues with this because of my "blessings," and my lack of funds to tailor. But I would totally do this if I had the money to!*

4. Eyeshadow: Apply white/vanilla/silver shadow (depending on your skin tone) right underneath your eyebrows to make your eyes pop. *I started doing this and I LOVE it!*

5. Cheeks: You can also use that same shade from #4 along your cheekbone above your blush to add a highlight. *Also started doing this one, and LOVE it too!*

6. Pants: Pants need to fit the largest part of your hip and then create a straight line down from their for wide leg jeans. As they put it, "wide leg jeans will NEVER go out of style." *Haven't tried this one yet. I'm still stuck in flare jeans.*

7. Usability: Buy your clothes in separates so you get more usability out of your clothes. This applies to suits and tops and jeans and everything. *I just think this is brilliant, not that I've done it yet.*

8. Color: Use "pops" of color in everything. Typically, they suggest that you combine neutrals with these little pops of color to get the most use out of your clothes. *I love color but I struggle I lot because of my redhead skin tone. What I've learned is brown is good, yellow is bad, and silver is not suggested. That's about all I know about my color.*

9. Knee Length Skirts: I have never seen them put any woman in a skirt that is any lower than the knee, which totally makes sense because it will elongate the leg since you can actually see it. *This one bums me out because I love my floor length, fitted, khaki skirt. :( *

10. Shoes: When given the option, always choose a pointy toe shoe. They, again, elongate the leg and make you look "long and lean." *I also have a complex about being taller than PP since we're the same height, so I don't typically buy heels, but I do love them. Sad.*

Overall, I LOVE What Not to Wear and it drives PP nuts.

But who cares? He's not home most of the time anyway. *blows raspberry*
