Celebrity Style Blog: Back in the Big House

While today's madness has finally calmed down a little now that Paris Hilton is secure in the medical facility of the Twin Towers Correctional Center (where she will remain for the rest of the weekend until her appeal is heard on Monday), everyone is still talking about all the craziness of the day! In case you are living under a rock on Mars, I'm sure you have heard that Paris Hilton is headed back to jail. Paris was escorted in handcuffs via cop car this morning to the courthouse where her fate was sealed, crying real tears and looking absolutely devastated, as if she knew what was in store for her. To say that there was a media circus outside of her house is putting it lightly, there were about 300 paparazzi, photographers and news reporters all vying to get that perfect shot, as well as numerous helicopters circling up ahead, which followed her all the way to the court. This case is like turning into as big of an attention-grabber as the OJ Simpson trial! When PH appeared in court looking "disheveled and weeping, hair askew, without makeup," she was definitely hoping for the best, but expecting the worst. CNN is reporting that Paris "cried throughout the hearing, dabbing her eyes, and her body shook constantly. Several times, she turned to her parents, seated behind her in the courtroom, and mouthed, 'I love you.'" Talk about pouring it on thick, Paris. But I actually believe she was scared, and meant it. The judge that obviously hates Paris announced the verdict that she is to head back to Lynwood and finish her original sentence of 45 days in the slammer. An obviously upset Paris then cried out that this wasn't right and then, in tears, cried out for her mother over and over again. I honestly don't think she deserves this, I think she is being made an example out of due to the fact that so many people have such a vehement dislike for her as a person based on what they see in the media. So sad! I hope she'll be alright for the remainder of her sentence. For a judgement day, Paris-esque ensemble, I suggest Ecognaik's grey Terry Hoodie Zip-Up (the stripes in the hood are reminiscent of a jailbird outfit!) with IISLI's Legging Trousers (Paris wore trousers to the courtroom), finished off with Jessica Elliot's Handcuff Choker for kicks.

Style Tip: Sunnie Day

Finally something we can agree on! After a long run as hotly debated fashion polarizer, oversized sunglasses (introduced at the dawn of Boho) have finally slipped away like so many too-distressed jeans into our mind's collective archives of Nicole Richie bug-eyed over a ginormous latte. Rest in peace lil accessory. We shall return to think of you in ten years.

Yes, unless you've been dead under a rock somewhere, the Ray Ban Wayfarer has led the pack for sunglass statements, albeit these bright sunnies are just as oversized. This author couldn't think of a better way to describe the aforementioned cracked out Audrey Hepburn look (Audrey you did it right!). Perhaps just as enormous, the loud, crass, cool experimental shapes are in-in the brightest most Mickey Mouse colors you can get your Post-Traumatic-Richie-hands on.

Regarding the Style Tip, the thing we love about these ridiculously cool shades is how ridiculously fast they take a drab, monochromatic ensemble from zero to hero; or at the very least, Celebutante. Yes, it's that morning you awake and frighten yourself in the mirror then attempt damage control by throwing on a suspiciously long tank (is it a dress?), some black leggings, sandals and a scarf to face the world that your obnoxiously stylish in-your-face sunnies save the day!

The moral of the story, look as drab as you like Miss "I only wear white and black!" then join the party with the rest of us when you slip into some brilliantly snazzy shades.
