When Bad Fashion Happens to Good People: Cassie's Electro Love

Recently the women of Dime Piece Designs teamed up with Predicate Fashion Faux Pas Offender Cassie to direct the R&B Singer’s photo shoot. Images from the shoot will be featured in Cassie’s Fall 2009 Look Book titled Electro Love which also happens to be the title of her upcoming album.


As I look at the images, I can’t help but to wonder “Is it just me or does Cassie look like a cross dressing Betty Rubble in this shoot… How You Doin?!? Am I the only who thinks Cassie looks completely horrible in these photos - like a character straight out of the Fifth Element Movie?

Everything except for her clothing is completely wrong:

1. Whatever’s left of her hair is too long to put into a bun – I’m aware of the look that they were pulling for; however, it looks better on women with shorter hair I.E. Rhianna.
2. Her eye brows are too thick and cavemen like.
3. Last but not least, her makeup looks rubbish. I’m not sure if they were going for a retro, gothic, or futuristic feel but she's all over the place: messy.

Dwane Wayne flip up glasses – Hated it!

Why is it that such a pretty girl like Cassie puts a lot of effort into looking ugly and busted? According to Dime Piece Designs,

“A Dime Piece is a woman who appeals to her audience with genuine swag…… She is educated by the books as well as the streets”

If that’s the case, from the look of these pictures Cassie does not symbolize a Dime Piece at all. If I could choose one word to describe her look it would be: Barbaric. Where’s the swag – did she leave her fashion mojo at home AGAIN? Someone please help Cassie find her mojo!

When Bad Fashion Happens to Good People: BET Award Show 2009

Celebrities hit the red carpet at last night's B.E.T. Award show. While some were dressed to impress, others showed up in the unexplainable --- committing fashion suicide. And just when I thought that B.E.T. and company couldn't possibly go lower, they have proven me wrong yet once again. En route to the award show "attributing Michael Jackson", Melody Thornton showed up in this unflattering skanky getup ...... and what a disgrace! Whatever happened to showing up at a tribute, award show, or an event with class? It seemed as though her butt cheeks were exposed. Someone should have advised her to wear something less revealing and more respectable. But what can you expect from a Pussycat Doll?!?!?









Next up is the demon of the night: Lil Mama. She showed up looking like Sheneneh Jenkin's little sister - Shenono. Doesn't this getup look like something you'll find at DOTS. Can someone please tell me who's her stylist so that I can beat her down with an ugly stick?!?! On the flip slide Lil Mama did come dressed for the occasion as a Thriller zombie.












And finally, the ultimate attention-seeker Cassie. Where can I begin?!?!? Everyone wants to be the talk of the red carpet - hopefully in a good way. There are some people who'll push their fashion limits and others who'll show up DOA (Dead-wrong on arrival) - and Cassie did just that. Fishnets are soooooooooo 90s. This getup should be worn at a club somewhere on South Beach and not at an award show "Attributing the King of Pop". What kills me is that Cassie actually thinks she's working this look SMH. There's a lot to be said when your shoe is layering more skin than your dress. It's no wonder Diddy failed to appear with and sit next to her.

3 Women - 3 Words: Classless ....... Tasteless ........ and Tacky!!
