Bobbi Brown Ad Campaign

I would like to preface this post with the following: I try not to write bitter diatribes about others...too often. My plan was to just avoid this subject all together, but I just can't hold it in anymore...it's everywhere. Staring at me when I walk through Sephora, Dillards, Macy's, just taunting me to say something, so here it goes:

Katie Holmes is the new face of Bobbi Brown makeup.  Great, fabulous, love it.

Now don't get me wrong, Katie Holmes looks flawless. Her hair, her skin, her makeup, it's stunning everything looks perfect...until you get to her elbows. WHY?!? The arms are so distracting. They look disproportionate to the rest of her body and it takes away from the focus of the makeup. All I see in this ad is Tina Fey's book cover. Fey's book cove also starts with a flawless face  and ends with not so subtle arms.  At least the elbows aren't showing.

Well, I feel better getting that off my chest. Again, my apologies for the negative post but I felt like it needed to be said. I can't be the only who thinks this. Now that I've put the comparison out there maybe I won't be te only one irritated by this campaign.

In other news, today is wedding day. YAY! The family event starts at 3:30pm, with a reception to follow at the Stueckle Sky Center, which I have never been to, but I here it's amazing. Pictures to follow soon.

Enjoy your weekend bombshells!!!
