Without Patricia Field, SJP's clothes bite ...er ... are Bitten (*although, I freely admit to adoring her as an actress).

However, if the spectacle of celebrity can help pave the way for those designers who truly have earned their silver thimble thumbs, so be it.

Designers partnering with celebs to get their names out? Fine.

But what concerns me are those celebs walking around with a false sense of their own abilities--as though by attention-getting, they are automatically a fashion expert.

How does that happen in fame-pickled brain?

Just because you're hot does not mean you're haute.

Those people make for a fun red carpet though. Maybe I should keep my mouth shut for sheer entertainment purposes. After all, they ARE entertainers.
