Fug or Fab or Unfug: Audrina Patridge

Kill the ruffles and switch out the shoes for a pair that looks less like the ones I wore to prom (not that there is anything wrong with her shoes or my prom shoes, they just don't really go with the suit) and we're in business.

I agree, kill the ruffles and change the shoes to an open-toed pump.

Actually, I'm rather partial to the ruffles. I don't even mind the shoes. The handbag adds a lovely pop of colour.

I just wish her trousers fit.

Yikes, kill the entire outfit. It looks itchy. The black panel in the front makes her chest look huge but not in a nice way, the ruffles are like elephant ears, the colour is blech. I like the shoes (not with this suit) and her smile is nice.

Kill her? No? Fine. Then how about just photo-shopping her out of the whole picture. She's so vapid, I think I'd rather hear from the limo driver behind her.

The whole thing looks oddly reptilian. Perhaps kill the frill and replace with a simple short or cap sleeve? The black tank does nothing for the suit--actually, keep the tank, make the suit black, w/o frill of course. Change shoe to a black patent pump. Then the yellow makes more sense as a pop against black.

I too would change the sandals to pumps - peeptoed or not - and I would change the clutch, the color just doesn't go. I like everything else though (is that the sounds of hell freezing over?)

I would love it if those capris were actually a well-fitting pencil skirt.

I would dig the ruffles if they were about half as large. And if the pants weren't so ill-fitting in the crotchular area, the bottoms would be cute. I think it's not too bad overall, I like the color and the shoes and the clutch.

Wow. I'm so boring today.

i like the outfit. it's the fact that her eyes look like they're upside down that always gets me about AP.

I like her ruffle better than Naomi Watts's shoulder thingies further down the page, which make her look like she's permanently shrugging. I'm not crazy about the wrinkles on the pants, and I'm confused by the way she's pointing her toes together while bending her knees. She looks like she's about to start skipping with an invisible rope. But on the whole, it suits her and it fits her well.

I agree that this would be better with with a skirt - an above the knee skirt . But we still have to deal with that purse and those shoes. I don't know if it's just a question of either/or or neither/nor. I suspect that there's got to be a better choice out there.

I remain unsure about the ruffle but we can't all go around in tasteful little black dresses all the time.

I would only change the ruffle vest thing to a fitted jacket with 3/4 sleeves. The ruffles are just too much. The bag is a nice shot of color and I like the shoes for keeping her from looking too serious. I also like her hair back like that so that I doesn't take attention from her pretty face.

JOJ at 12:37, I had the same thought and Googled on 'frilled lizard' images, and there she was.

So, this doesn't actually bother me, surprisingly enough, except the shoes are a little busy for the suit. But, I do like the color of the clutch with the suit. Unfortunately, the annoyingness that is her is too much to bear. Is it me (and I know, I know she can't help this, so I feel incredibly guilty even writing it), but is anyone else bugged by the fact that she looks just a little too much like a 1970s model to me? I think it's the overly thin upper lip and too tweezed eyebrows - but they are getting better. (And I know - she can't help the lips, but for some reason, they bug). Maybe I just don't see that she's pretty?
That said, the suit looks good, and the color is flattering, which is a nice change for her. Plus - no over the knee boots - a big improvement.

I say fug all around. No to the ruffles, and seriously no to the pants. I don't know what it is, but I'm anti-cropped pants.

I like the idea of a suit, but this one is awful. Replace it entirely. Though I'm having a hard time imagining Audrina in a suit that doesn't make her look like a naughty secretary.

Maybe a nice black dress?

My first thought when I saw this was that she looked like one of those lizards that puffs out it's neck ruffle when threatened. Not a favorable comparison. I do appreciate that she's trying, though.

Wow, I thought she was Katie Price at first. I think the jacket is okay but the pants don't fit. Maybe a pencil skirt and black pumps?

This works, even with large ruffle. It's interesting, I like it.

I see here that people are hating on the shoes, the clutch, the ruffles, the pants...pretty much everything. I have to be honest, I love this outfit on her. I think she looks lovely. The clutch is a great color against the suit; the suit is cute with the cropped pants; the ruffles may be slightly too large but I still like them; and I think the shoes just set off the entire outfit. I love it...in the words of another commenter "...is that the sounds of hell freezing over?"

This works, even with large ruffle. It's interesting, I like it.

Keep the ruffles, but swap out those pants for a pencil skirt - they are totally frumpy and detracting from the waist detail on the jacket.

If the ruffles were smaller and if she wasn't standing like Barbie! Check her left hand! Its cute otherwise.

I hate those pants.

The ruffles have GOT to go. They do make her look like a threatened lizard. The shoes need to go the way of the ruffles. They are cute, but they don't go with this outfit in any way.

The rest of the outfit looks either like it doesn't fit properly, or it needs ironing. I'm not sure which. If it were a better fit, I wouldn't have any issues with it, though I agree with posters that would have put her in a pencil skirt instead. The yellow clutch does add a bit of much needed color, but even with the improvements I would make to this ensemble, it's nothing to write home about.

The clutch is cute? Her silicone isn't popping out? That's about it.

A pair of tall black stilettos and she's fab.

loose the tan, get better shoes, keep the ruffle but maybe only on one side... this could be very avant garde and chic, i think we need SWINTON to do some styling!

I think it's pretty cute -- I think the only thing that bothers me is the shoes; they seem a little busy for that particular suit -- a sleek pump or a sandal with less.... gladiatorness? Would make the outfit, I think.

I LOVE the ruffles! They are absolutely fabulous and without them her dress would be so boring! Otherwise, the pants are too short and they don't fit her that well... so if the pants were more fitting and longer, and the shoes were more closed and thick(sth like YSL pumps), the whole thing would look a million dollars!

I think she either needs to nix the jacket or the pants. On their own I think either would look fine, but together it's too....high society old lady-ish?

I like the jacket, but I do not care for the pants or the shoes.

A skirt and a pair of those S&M-ish shoes that are so popular now would probably do it.

fantastic purse. everything else has got to go. those pants are the worst. And while i understand the ruffles on the jacket in theory, i feel like in execution they failed somewhere along the way. None of it is particularly flattering, which is difficult to accomplish with her body.

It makes me laugh that everyone's using the phrase "pop of color" to describe the clutch. It just got featured (along with her) on a show on the Style network, where it was used as one of the design inspirations for redecorating her backyard.

It's her favorite bag of all time, she says, because it makes every outfit look fabulous by adding...."a pop of color."

I like it, but I like it more because she's actually smiling AND looking at the camera.

I say leave the ruffle (whimsy!), but go with a black pant/skirt, making the focus the detailed ruffle, not "oh wow so that's a green suit."

Also, the shoes are wrong wrong wrong. A pump would serve her fabulously here.

Love the clutch.

Did anyone else have a flashback to Jurassic Park when the itty bitty dinosaurs (whatever they are called) had gills much like this jacket and the whole heard ran around screaming and enlarging their gills trying to eat things?

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think it's adorable as is. I want it. I don't know where in a million years I would wear it, but I want it anyway. Not office wear, and the ruffles are a bit too twee to wear out to dinner. Like my gold strapless cocktail dress, it would probably only be worn after a bottle of wine in my living room as I perform the entirety of the West Side Story soundtrack for whatever poor guest happens to be on hand. Oh, no, Anita, no.

Lose the wings, Tinkerbell on a Job Interview, and maybe switch those shoes out for some superhigh pumps.

Colors are fine -- it's not all black, and not everything has to be a primary color to be interesting.

Can't make up my mind on the ruffle. I like it on her left, hate it on her right. Why is it different on each side in the first place?

However, it all takes a back seat to those PANTS, which could be very snazzy if they 1) fit 2) were the right length.

Yeah, just put her in a nice pencil skirt.

Not feeling much love for the shoes, but I don't hate them. They do seem like they go with a different outfit.

In the end, I think I really don't care much.

Good colour, good clutch, good shoes, good eye contact, good ruffles, great smile, bad suit. If this was a sassy little frock, it would be so nice. Instead it's this rumpled suit...thing.

btw, why is there no poll? :(( i love your funny polls, they are the best!!

STOP TANNING!!!!! For the love of Justin Bobby STOP!

My God.

Finally ... someone had a dream, and my late Grandma, and Grandpa, and my gay cousin, were all in it! And so was my angry mother, before she grew up and got so angry! This outfit IS THAT DREAM!

Those pants are my mother ... in 1957! The pinafore top is a Grandma + gay cousin mashup! (The purse suggests a yellow brick road.)

And Grandpa? He's the fabric.

Audrina seems to have no clue, though. If she did have the slightest clue that she's wearing an homage to an entire Midwestern clan, she'd have done something different with the hair. She'd certainly be wearing closed-toe shoes.

Poor kid does not even seem to know that it's December. Someone please stop this girl before she tans again ...

Shoes, yes. Yellow clutch, ruffled suit, wonky eyes. No. Ok, that last part was not nice of me, but she bugs. PS Mentioned your blog in mine a few weeks ago ... link below ... hope that is OK? I gave you full author/genius cedit ( :

http://motherlawyercrazywoman.blogspot.com/2009/12/important-world-issues.html

All things considered, and considering the source, Audrina looks pretty good here. I think the suit is visually interesting and well tailored. The ruffles are feminine without being overwhelming or extraneous.

It's just those shoes...I think she could have done something bold and interesting, just like she did with her clutch. Or even just some nice simple black platform Louboutins. Just something fresher and more modern, less fussy than those prom night terrors from 1992.

The shoes work fine with the casual capri pants. But people, people! This is not a suit. A suit has a jacket, and a jacket has sleeves. This is the Winged Vest of Samothrace. Take it off, tailor the pants some, and she's got a fine, casual look. Good for going out for daquris with your BFF's, maybe, but not for the red carpet.

Cannot be saved unless she is trying to conquer the reptilian empire.

Cannot be saved unless she is trying to conquer the reptilian empire.

hmmm. i kind of like this. the pants could be a lot less wrinkly and her shoes could be better, but all in all, i think she looks cute. i really like the interesting ruffly top. perhaps a black clutch and red heels, or keep the yellow clutch and some black heels...

Loose the ruffled jacket and make the pants a sensible length. I know it's always fun to show off how you can still fit the pants you wore when you were 15, but if you've grown a bit since then and the pants are now four inches too short you end up looking silly.

Swap the shoes for something simpler and she's good.

I actually heart this muchly from the waist up, fancy water wings and all. It's incredibly grown up and, dare I say, appropriate. Especially considering the source, it's almost well done.

It's the pants & prom shoes that are giving me issues. Swap them out for a pencil skirt & shoes that don't compete with the rest (black Loub stilettos?), and we're in business.

I hate the jacket/vest/wing-y part. On the other hand, I like the pants and the texture is interesting. The color is gorgeous on her. Plus, she looks appropriate to the situation and I can't see anything in the vicinity of her nipple or her hoo-ha. That's a win, in my opinion.

I actually like everything about this outfit, including the ruffles. Not everyone can pull those off, and I think she's doing a great job here. The yellow and dark teal/green of the suit are awesome together. The only minor thing I'm not sure of is the black top. It looks a wee bit like a tube top.
Win all around in my book.

I think the outfit is just too strange to fix, but if you must insist on "jolly" comments, we could go for red and green with a gold tube top.

She is extremely tan. Or tan-colored.

The side ruffles actually remind me of the weird ear/wing things on those nasty little flesh-eating dinosaurs in one of the Jurassic Park films. They were all cute too until the ear/wing things came out. But other than feeling like anyone within tongue's reach of AP should slowly back away and then run like hell, the only real problem I have is with the pants. They look like they don't fit her properly and I hate the length.

The whole ensemble reminds me of a Frill-necked Lizard (Chlamydosaurus kingii).

I... actually like it. And I'm usually VERY MUCH against ruffles. "Ruffles belong on BEDSKIRTS!" I have often exclaimed whilst shaking my tiny fist. Maybe it's the holiday season making my heart grow a few sizes, but I think she looks lovely.

I like the shoes, and the purse, and the smile. Jury's still out on the rest of it.

They do remind me of wings and I still love it!

It all ALMOST looks like she's dressing like one of the... oh wow... blue guys? in the movie, you know what I mean.

But regardless, I like this, I honestly think the whole problem is her pose. A jaunty hand-on-hip makes all the difference.

they're called na'vi THANKS WIKIPEDIA!

She needs those yellow pumps from one of the Olsen twins (the Snuggleupaguswampuswompetter-jacket one) and, perhaps, a more interesting shell/under-top -- made of a soft version of the spanglier part of her outfit. Yes, maybe too matchy matchy, but it would solve a lot. The clutch is the pivot of the outfit, and a brilliant color choice in context.

nothing to say about her outfit really...i think it's ok, she's done a lot worse and her boobs aren't hanging out. really i'm just thankful her eyes aren't looking upwards like they always do! it drives me nuts.

I like the whole ensemble a lot. The color, the shape, the pretty woman poppin her clutch. I regret her tanness, it would be SO much better with indoor skin, her natural indoor patina. If she has one left. And take the eye makeup down a few subtle notches.

The ruffles look like those on one of those 1950's full-on aprons (not those ones that cover just your stomach but the ones that covered your boobs, too - THOSE meant business) - on steriods. Just not buying what YOU'RE cooking, Aud. Even if that clutch does look like a giant pat of butter that you were using to baste yourself on the tanning bed/spit out back. But on to the outfit fix. How's about sleeves on that jacket, hmmm? Perhaps, 3/4 sleeves? There you go - much better. Mmmm, butter......

Get rid of the frilled lizard ruffle thing and make the pants a sensible length. I know it's fun to show off how you can still fit the pants you wore when you were 15, but if you've grown a bit since then and said pants are now four inches too short you end up looking silly.

I like the shoes and the purse...

Oh frilled lizard queen, descendant of triceratops, you hurt my eyes.

It's not HEINOUS. I just don't understand why...first the shoes are screaming Wildcat High's Senior Prom of 1999, second (although it is surgically enhanced) this girl has a RIDIC body - why is she hiding it under this ill-fitting sparkle pant-suit? Nix the festive ruffles and basically you have something Susan Sarandon wears to a "Politically Active Ladies in Hollywood" charity dinner.

On second thought, looking back at the photo, I realize that if Audrina (although completely devoid of any shred of actual intelligence) wasn’t so ridiculously ridiculously good-looking this outfit would be quite offensive – picture, basically ANY other person in it and it’s appalling.

The problem with this is that she has short legs in proportion to her body and the outfit exacerbates it. Look how much distance there is between the crotch of her pants and her waist! It's like a mile. she needs to nix the pants and wear a skirt so we don't know where her legs start, preferably knee-lenghth and simple enough to not be too much with the ruffle, but substantial enough to balance it out. Or maybe even, given her youth, a mini-skirt. I think from the waist up she's stunning, actually.

Aside from the whole proportionality thing, the notion of cut offs with strappy sandals in the winter is just a little off to me. Her upper half looks like she's going to a Christmas party on Dynasty and her lower half looks like she's going to go clam digging with Nettie Fowler and do a little solo during the "the was a real nice clambake" number.

I think you were going for something like, "tis the season to be JOLLY, not to commit a fashion FOLLY."

fa la la la la, la la la la.

It's a wonderful shoes,i love YSL shoes shoes,how nice they are.the YSL shoes is many women love.especially its red sole. it can attract men sight, and make women feel more confidence,i always dream to have a pair of YSL shoes.

Kill the ruffles or at least make them smaller so they are only a small detail on the jacket hems.
The shoes look summery. Darken them a bit. An open toed pump?
Bag is too bright. Maybe gold?
Anyone for jewelry?

She looks FABULOUS (for once)....yay Audrina and here's to an unfug 2010!

Admittedly, the size of the ruffles on the jacket kind of makes them look like gills coming out of her chest. But if the gills...I mean ruffles were smaller, I think we'd have a darn cute outfit.

Let's take this item by item from bottom to top:
- shoes: not my field of expertise. They don't look bad, all I'm saying.
- pants: even taking into account the fact that they can't decide whether to be glittery or mum, they look good for the evening.
- purse thing:it's yellow...
- accessories: just enough.
- top: nice and simple, not competing with anything else.
- jacket: the words like "sparkly lettuce", or "glittery dark cabbage leaf" come to mind.

We can all agree, that a better jacket would've helped Audrina to maybe get a "well played"... Just maybe, since I'm not fond of the glitter.

She's pretty/sexy/hot obviously, but if you think about it, that whole get up might make her look older than what she is... Or maybe I've grown fond of her groupie attire... Oh well.

Scroll down fug...
Wait, I want those shoes.

Matte off-black bat winged random Hills dingbat.

I think it's lovely! Especially with the clutch. If I were to change anything, I would give her cooler shoes.

"Sal on December 17, 2009 8:43 PM
Matte off-black bat winged random Hills dingbat."

I was just about to offer my version of probably the same thing half of everyone has said so far, but...you leave me speechless :)

Okay, this is very stressful an outfit to unfug because HOT DAMN that is something, but here I go.

I like the shoes, they are all dainty and designy (I apologize for the fake word) and the clutch makes me happy with it's bright frillieness (there I go again).

As for the big side ruffle wing things, I would keep them but make them smaller. To top it off, I would make those pants into a pencil skirt and BLAMMO, it might work.

Oh, also, I'm not sure those bracelets need to be there. There is so much going on with this outfit in the way of shape and movement (and SPARKLE) that they pretty much seem like a needless bauble.

I think if that outfit were in a shade of pastel, it would be very Dynasty.

Makeup is a fantastic job. Hair...boring. There's not enough interest up top by her face. Your eyes are on pants and ruffles. I think she needs a necklace, perhaps a choker--something unfussy and high, like thosel chokers from Majorica with big center pearl to bring your focus back to her.

If I were designing this, I would have cut the pants differently. The diagonal pocket adds wrinkles where they don't want any and just distract from what I think is an interesting fabric. I'd cut the trousers to have a flat front and vertical side pockets and lower the waist an inch or so.

I am not sold on the cropped pants, and I am really unhappy with what I am seeing with the hems, as they don't look even. Might be how she's standing, but from here it looks like a rushed pin-up job.

I love the clutch, but not with this, and I like the shoes, but not with this. I can't quite figure out the color on this. . If it's more grey than green, I might try her in those burgundy patent pumps from Nanette Lepore.

Aw. I like the ruffles. Actually, I wholly endorse her outfit, perhaps minus the shoes. I hate formal shiny strappy silvery diamanté-y heel-y shoes. Hatehatehate. So switch 'em and we're in business. Ruffly business.

I love the suit, just not on her. She is breaking the 11th commandment:

Thou Shalt Not Wear Ruffles on Thy Chest When Thy Bosom Exceeds a B Cup.

I think she looks like she's in matador training camp. I LOVE it.

The length of the pants and the shoes are not working for me. But I love the jacket, the clutch, the hair, the makeup, the ceiling eyes.

Actually, I don't too much mind this look. The pants could be a bit more tailored. She looks cute.

If she tossed the jacket she'd be fabulous.

Normally, I would say totally FUG! However, due to the theme of this particular event, I think we can let this one slide as it is seemingly very "Avatar-esk"

Well, the way the top of the suit is cut+whatever she is wearing underneath it just makes her boobs look SO HUGE that it is distracting from the whole look. Her hair, makeup look really good which is new for her. Overall I like the idea she is working towards so I say keep up the good work Audrina.

I like it, but I think I'd switch out the under-top for something a little splashier. It looks like a cotton spaghetti strap tank, and that's too plain.

no poll? Sad face..

Also, must have that clutch.

I love her shoes and the fact that it looks like she's wearing a tubetop under her suit. But that suit is a nightmare. The color might be fun (but it also might be a twee bit too much elementary school art teacher's favorite throw pillow), but the fit is a nightmare and the jacket is exploding like a velosa raptor's face before feeding. If it were properly tailored and those ruffle/dinosaur face flaps were edited down, I could give it a B. But I also think I want the pants to be an inch longer. Throw in a simple but shiney necklace and I'll even knock it up to a B+!

Make the pants a little longer, and change the shoes to a simple black pump...

Other than that, I actually like the rest! Her clutch is fantastic and the ruffles gives a little extra.

I actually really like the ruffles - it adds an interesting element and is really nothing I'd ever expect to see her in. I'm just surprised we're not looking at Boobs Legly in this jacket with a bra top and black micro-mini.

What I would change: instead of pants, this would look great with a matching (just above the knee length) pencil skirt. And maybe if the shoes were black... But I love the way the yellow clutch pops and the green/teal is a beautiful colour.

Change the pants to a simple pencil skirt and the shoes to an open-toe black pump. Add a lacy camisole underneath and voila!

I lack the time needed to scan all 99 comments above to avoid a redundancy; so if it hasn't be said, girl looks like a cuttlefish (or, Christinarita, a dilophosaurus). And NOT in a good way.

Water wings, I agree and maybe too much tanning lotion.

I think even for a last minute fix, hacking off the ruffles and making the pants a little longer so she doesn't look like she just had a growth spurt would go a long way. Those ruffles look like the ruff on that little spitting dinosaur in Jurassic Park.

i think its perfect...just the way it is. fab!

someone said pump instead of the shoes...pumps is too easy.

Hey, she made eye contact. That's a start...

Hey, she made eye contact. That's a start...

Ditch the matchy-matchy pants and replace with a sleek black pencil skirt. When you wear something that outrageous up top, it's meant to be emphasized. Covet the shoes.

I cannot tell you how much I hate capri's. They just look cheap. It's like you couldn't take time to have a pair of slacks hemmed properly, so this is the second choice. Feh!

...actually, girlfriend cleans up pretty good. I had no idea.

Ya know what? I like this unique little outfit. The color is smashing on her. The big ruffles are interesting and modern looking, not twee or old. It's a silhouette that you hardly ever see on celebrities at fancy events. I am bored stiff with the little strapless mini dresses on these girls.

I would just give her black strappy sandals instead of what she has on. But otherwise, rock on, girl whose show I will never watch!

I like the colour and I like the clutch, but that's about it.

This outfit looks like she was trying to match the avatar's skin. Maybe she was trying to look my grandmother, did anyone think of that!

*my best friend Matt (Gigi) who has been forcing me to watch "Too Wang Fu" instead of "a Christmas Carol" says Ms thang can tour on the drag queen circut with that outfit...I agree*

she is one hot tranny mess...oh wait she's a gg...this is so confusing...More Eggnog!

Keep the shoes, hell, keep the bag, but toss that sad mess of a suit into the Salvation Army donations pile.

Nothing, its a mess. The sleeves are worng, the pants are wrong, the shoes are wrong....However on a more positive note I am very fond of that clutch!

aww i think that little frilly suit is adorable! it makes her look super girly, but adultish, if you catch my drift. ALL IM SAYING IS THAT its cute!

I like christian louboutin shoes, red soles looked is so sexy, noble, elegant.
