There's a new trend circulating around Hollywood as many stars have been 'recycling' their wardrobe but maybe not in the sense you would assume upon hearing the word 'recycle'. It's no secret that some celebs live so extravagantly that the mere thought of wearing the same garment twice would bring them to tears (Paris Hilton) however, there are those who are not above the grain and are opting for a more green approach to staying trendy. Jennifer Aniston for example has no problem with being seen in public wearing the same black vest and slacks.
In the 'real world' wearing the same thing twice is no big whoop but obviously for the rich and famous it's actually looked down on by their peers. For instance, Ozzy's brat Kelly Osbourne who for whatever reason made it on the Fashion Police panel, slammed British royalty Kate Middleton for wearing the same dress on more than one occasion.
I'm thinking that was a bit snobbish and hasty considering Osbourne who is now considered to be a reformed hot mess, has been at the mercy of the tabloids herself in the past and was even recently pointed out as being one of the worst dressed! Here is the 'same' look worn by Kelly almost decades apart, neither one is screaming "I'M EXTREMELY FASHION SAVVY!"...eh?
Michelle Obama has been spotted buying clothes off the rack, Lindsay Lohan has been cited for sharing her closet with her sister Ali & even Brittney Spears is on board with the idea as she was seen wearing the same shorts and tee shirt twice in one week and her attempt to change it up a bit with a straw fedora didn't mix it up much!
I've never understood the hype associated with wearing the same thing twice, but of course my fashion choices are not out there under the scrutiny of the public eye so with that being said, "maybe it's a true 'sign of the times' that to some extent, the current recession is even hitting to the level that it's effecting the lifestyles of the rich and famous?" To sum up my response, "BOO and HOO"...
With all of the more pressing issues at hand going on in the world these days, who's wearing what and how many times over should be the least of our concerns!

When the temperatures begin to rise, that's when clothes start coming off and it seems as though that is also the time when we begin to see too many fashion no-no's that totally contradicts the saying ... "Less is best"! "Just because we're in the middle of a Midwest heat wave, does that mean that we still can't stay cool & classy?" Not that I personally consider myself in the ranks of Joan Rivers & her notorious fashion police or anything, but geesh sometimes it's just so out there and it's just so wrong on too many levels that it kind of makes you want to say ... "Girl, Oh no you didn't?". I know you know exactly what I'm talking about! The numero uno fashion faux pas that seems to strike every Summer is the ill fitting swimsuit. ""News flash"", no one wants to see all that business popping out everywhere! No matter who you are or what your body type, & contrary to popular beliefs, it's just not attractive when it borders on pornographic. And by all means, if you're going to opt for a white bathing suit, please make sure it's lined so your bits don't end up being on center stage for all to see... & F.Y.I., anything that might be defined as 'micro' is an 'instant NO-NO'!
