Chelle | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 11:25 am     Well, Julie got back to her assistant right away, and I had an answer within fifteen minutes. I would also like to say that most 19 year olds couldn't afford it. I just found out that it is $750. Being fashionable has nothing to do with age as far as I am concerned. We each have our own sense of style. As my husband always says, "You should feel good about yourself when you leave the house." Personally, I loved the top. I own the same top Haley wore on All My Children once. That one I could afford. You just never know what you might find on TV. |
Squaredsc | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 12:01 pm     chelle i loved the shirt too. im also not sure if jc's hair was cut or just curled differently which made it look shorter. but she looked very nice, imo. |
Monkhead | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 12:14 pm     Chelle - I am glad someone got back to you so quickly - see, there are some very nice people in the world!!!! They should only know how much we appreciate it!!! Bye for now.. Monk |
Needmylifeback | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 12:28 pm     I liked the shirt initially...but, then watching more through the program the "dangly" things started getting a little distracting... |
Katlady53 | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 12:48 pm     I thought the dangly things were distracting, too. I kept staring at them, trying to figure out why they weren't tied. Before I knew it, they were hypnotizing me. I didn't like Julie's hair at all last night! |
Beachcomber88 | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 12:52 pm     Julie's only 33? Wow - I would have guessed MUCH older! I don't agree with the comments that she looks her age. She is really old looking for 33, considering she's Chinese. Lots of my Asian friends who are in their 30s look like they could pass for college students. |
Crazydog | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 12:56 pm     Must be the lights of the TV studios which have made her look older. |
Rainwoman | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 12:57 pm     OMG, I am 2 years older than Julie Chen! She looks SO MUCH OLDER than 33! atleast 45 to me.
I am older than Julie Chen, omg! |
Katlady53 | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 12:59 pm     I think Julie's a pretty woman, but there are times when they dress her too "old." I thought she looked much older last night in that ugly outfit and hair do. At other times, I think she looks chic and cute. |
Realbiz | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 01:00 pm     she is quite mature for her age - maybe it has something to do with her hair, which is too middle-aged looking. if she were to have long hair, she may look more youthful. |
Madelane | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 01:01 pm     I liked the shirt too. Looked like a Versace print. I have young friends who wear Versace-type stuff and I also once, hilariously, wore one to dress like my Mom for Halloween. Could go either way. I can see why many thought it was ugly - high fashion is like that. I watch Sex and the City with my friends and we constantly disagree on the outfits. That show definitely pushes the envelope on clothes and you either love them or you hate them. |
Fan3 | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 01:04 pm     Lord Beachcomber88 better watch what you say they will jump on you in a heartbeat if they disagree with you..... |
Crazydog | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 01:09 pm     I agree with you Beach and Katlady. I think she does look older than 33. I do think her hairstyle is too old for her, but I think the problem is that in her day job, she wants to look older and more mature so people give her some more credibility. But in the BB environment, the look hurts her because she looks old and not hip. |
Kaili | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 01:09 pm     Hey...I'm the "they" that said she looks her age. Sorry, I think she does. But I'm not going to "jump on" anyone for disagreeing with me. |
Chelle | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 01:12 pm     The top was by Roberto Cavalli. I completely agree that fashion is very personal. I have also noticed that this board has gotten very catty. I would love to be able to affor to wear what Julie wears. She is a successful woman with a fun job. I have nothing but kudos for her. |
Katlady53 | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 01:12 pm     Oh, I think she looks her age most of the time, too, Kaili. There have been a few times (like last night) when I thought she looked older, but I think that's because IMHO she was wearing an unflattering outfit and hairstyle. I agree with Crazydog that Julie probably wants a more sophisticated mature look in order to garner more credibility. |
Rainwoman | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 01:36 pm     I think anyone who buys a shirt that is more than their mortgage or rent payment, needs their head examined. That goes for the designer as well. |
Tera | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 01:49 pm     I totally agree Rainwoman... A few months ago I dusted off my sewing machine and have been making clothes like crazy which are just as nice or nicer than any department store can offer... I have saved hundreds of dollars! |
Scorpiomoon | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 02:22 pm     Madelane: I didn't think the shirt was ugly because it is "high fashion". I just don't like patterns--I prefer solid colors. I thought the shirt looked too "busy" and was distracting. In the past, Julie has worn many cute outfits that were quite flattering. I'm not understanding how not liking a shirt can be equated to being catty. |
Rainwoman | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 02:24 pm     Way to go Tera! It takes a real talent to be able to do that. It would be great to take that a step further and sell what you make by either word of mouth or Garage Sale, just to name a couple ideas. I think you would be surprised at how much you could make! |
Rainwoman | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 02:29 pm     Scorpiomoon just reminded me of something. I totally think Julie was her hottest when Justin was evicted. She wore that beautiful, sexy black dress with a thin red line across the top. She looked absolutely the greatest I have ever seen her. She seemed so healthy and fit. |
Scorpiomoon | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 02:39 pm     Exactly, Rainwoman! |
Twiggyish | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 03:13 pm     I think Julie looks her best in classic clothes. But, she can wear anything and it looks nice. I am jealous! |
Bastable | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 03:17 pm     Was that a shirt? I thought it was a modified straight jacket. |
Sheilaree | Thursday, September 11, 2003 - 03:57 pm     If Julie is 33 please then I must be 44 She is much older then 33 |
