Smaggle Style

I LOVE GHOST WHISPERER!!! Seriously. This show has everything - lame plot, a little bit of humour, an antique store filled with pretty things, a lead character with the most beautiful costumes in existence, a delicious man-candy husband and some of the worst scripts EVER. And for the lads there’s Jennifer Love Hewitt’s breasts. A friend of mine was mocking me yesterday when I expressed my excitement at being able to watch my favourite show this week. She was so cruel… She even said (in a most derogatory tone) that the ghosts have shadows. What a bitch. Although I must concur on one point. Melinda paraphrases like a mofo when translating the spirits’ final messages to their loved ones. When you are the only person who can communicate someone’s dying message you deliver it word for word. Honestly, it’s no time to get creative. But on a style related note here are the trends I’m loving from the show -

* Plum coloured eye shadow with thick, thick lashes- Jen has been rocking this look for the past few episodes and I think it looks so divine. I may have to wait for winter to try this one though as I think the look is a little heavy for summer. A single tear trickling down your cheek as you watch a ghost ‘go into the light’ is an essential accessory to this look.

* Floaty dresses and boots- Big flouncy lacy dresses with pointy witchy boots. This look is so fantastical and fairytale-esque. Perfect for strolling down the main street with a take away coffee, ready to jump into your massive four wheel drive to chase after nasty spirits.

* Lace around the face - A lace collar or neckline framing the face to make you look delightfully feminine. Good for rolling around in bed with your stupidly smooth husband or for daintily chopping carrots in the kitchen.

* Dark nail polish - This look is utilised most effectively when Melinda is googling deaths in her town while sipping a glass of wine in front of a roaring fire with her muscle rippled husband. Dark nails always look best holding a glass of red wine. Always wear white with dark nails to avoid looking too goth. Just a scarf or some earrings will do.

* A chain with a pendant - Works best with DD breasts. Which I don’t have. But for those who are blessed with an ample cleavage a simple antique pendant on a long chain is simply beautiful. Shown most effectively in Ghost Whisperer when Melinda is ducked under a table hiding from a spirit with her antique charm necklace dangling perilously from her neck…
