Well Played, Mel C


well-played

Just in case you’re still reeling from the the horror of Zach Braff’s girlfriend’s pants — ah, the sentences we type here in late August. You guys, even Phoebe Price hasn’t left the house. — I offer you a palate cleanser in the form of the sportiest lady of Spice:

Oh Mel C, you’re so cute. I don’t know if I would have paired a black belt with all the brown accessories, but you’re pulling it off. Like a sweet version of Cruella de Vil: The Teen Years, a show that doesn’t exist, but which I would watch.

    I’ll bring the popcorn. I absolutely would watch that show. Melanie looks remarkably normal here. I approve.

    I’m not sure if I am totally on board with her very straight flat ironed hair, but the rest is prefect. I like the black belt emphasizing the black accents of the bag and fabric.

    Super cute! This would be a good look on Jennifer Garner, too (instead of the recent atrocity that is seared into my eyeballs).

    I love the dress! She totally looks like Kate Beckensale in this picture, too.

    I think if Mel C got a little more attention in general in stead of just now after her Olympic Spice performance, she would get a good many Well Played’s. Girlfriend has been looking fabulous for a good stretch of years now.

      Agreed! I saw her live a few years ago, and she was incredibly gorgeous and well-dressed. She wore these fantastic 5″ stillettoes and stayed on her feet for her entire set! She’s a remarkably gorgeous woman, and seems to have excellent taste in fashion.

    I love this. I know when I try to put brown and black together it turns into a nightmare. But Mel C has done it right. She looks so radiant, really. The colouring in her hair is delightful. I love when Victoria Beckham pops up on here, but there’s a special place in my heart for Mel C. It’s not that I love one Spice Girl more than another, but the love for each is different.

    Thank you for the palate cleanser before the night is done… It would have been horrendous to leave us with the last post.

    Mel C has certainly not lost her spice at all. She can still attract many of the good-looking bachelors in town!

    I read “Zac Braff’s girlfriend pants” and got all excited to see men’s sartorial response to boyfriend jeans/shirts/cardigans/etc. So disappointing when I scrolled down to see his girlfriend in terrible pants.

    Ooh, I like this for some reason (and I usually hate prints like that).

    I know where she’s hiding!! I saw Phoebe Price recently at bar/restaurant in San Diego, no joke. She had dressed her dog in a dumb looking outfit and wheeled it around in a stroller. I was too embarrassed to take a pic (because honestly, it’s Phoebe Price), but now I’m mad at myself.

    Agree about the brown accessories, but otherwise so effortlessly chic.
