Also, DH has different taste in movies than I do, so checking out the outfits makes it more fun for me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-306033 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 15:43:35 +0000 JayS 306033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK..I'll cop to watching the train wreck that is the Real Housewives. However, I make sure to try to not let anyone catch me watching. The only fashion inspiration I've gleaned is what not to wear.<br /> I've always wondered who does Rose's whimsical sweaters on Two and a Half Men. Love her quirky style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-306024 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 15:18:37 +0000 Vani 306024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nope, don't watch bad TV at all. Though to me it makes sense that I enjoy every aspect of the shows that I do watch - story, characters, actors and the fabulous outfits of some of the fab female characters e.g.<br /> the bold, colorful, OTT and always unique outfits and makeup of Penelope Garcia of Criminal Minds,<br /> the gorgeous, gorgeous jackets and coats and outfits with strong, clean, simple lines of Kate Beckett in Castle,<br /> the wonderfully quirky pieces of jewelry worn by Temperance Brennan, the absolutely crush worthy dresses worn by Camille Saroyan and the playful, chic outfits of Angela Montenegro in Bones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305983 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 14:16:51 +0000 Janet 305983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Count me as another who has the Real Housewives as a guilty viewing pleasure, but NOT for fashion inspiration. Although the New York and DC crews are definitely more subdued and sane, fashion wise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305899 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 07:31:29 +0000 Sally 305899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I dont watch tv but sometimes watch movies and get inspiration from what a character is reading. I prefer reality fashion shows like WNTW or Gok Wan- fashion fix it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305876 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 05:09:37 +0000 taylor 305876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will occasionally flip on the SOAP network to see what they are wearing...I don't have the patience to follow a story line ...but one soap diva has a Fab wardrobe!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305874 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 05:01:51 +0000 Mac 305874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I occasionally TIVO Gossip Girl and flick through it in 6 minutes the next day to see what the characters are wearing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305780 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:30:33 +0000 nicoleb 305780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isabel I am virtually high fiving you right now hahaha. I'm so glad I'm not the only one!

The answer is ALL THE TIME ! I love to see all the Real Housewives' shows just to see what they are wearing.</p> <p>Nicole, I feel that way about the Housewives of NJ !!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305769 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:22:27 +0000 nicoleb 305769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I admit to watching Real Housewives of Orange County XD Talk about over kill. Between the clothes, hair and makeup...wow. I think there was actually an Oprah where she brought them all on the show and did a "make under" on them. One of them was like, "well this is nice, but way too conservative for the OC" -_- </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305756 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:15:22 +0000 Barbara 305756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL! I check out any of the REAL HOUSEWIVES shows for how NOT to dress. The cleavage and overkill bling are absolutely blinding.</p> <p>Talk about mindless entertainment. Great comic relief.</p> <p>And what's real about it? Nothing! Especially the bolt-on cleavage...... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305741 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:02:36 +0000 Mellllls 305741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i'm not ashamed to admit that i do watch a lot of bad tv...but not for the fashion. although i do love teenybopper fashion on tv...takes me back. i know i just can't wear it anymore though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305739 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 01:59:57 +0000 nicoleb 305739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lol Mo you are crackin' me up. I'll have to check out those Jeopardy contestants fashion choices the next time i see it on XD</p> <p>Also I just had to share this: while out shopping yesterday i found a pair of jeans that look pretty much exactly like the picture i posted! Total coincidence! I snatched 'em up! Happy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305071 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 21:22:30 +0000 Mo 305071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The BF and I consistently review Jeapordy contestants' attire - it's usually not good! Patty, I agree Cuddy always has too tight/low cut especially for the job the character holds. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305042 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 20:25:02 +0000 Patty 305042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the only character I watch is Cuddy on House--she's head of the hospital--too tight/too small/too loose/too low/too high-which is it tonight?? Her clothes are a character on their own sometimes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305033 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 20:06:40 +0000 Elly 305033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't-- I can't even reliably follow shows I enjoy. Actually, I tend to not watch anything at all until it is a season or two in and I can watch the repeats at my leisure! I'm horrible though. I have one show that I have watched reliably for a whole season (I love how some networks now put episodes online the week after so I can catch up when I inevitably miss it) but have only stuck with it because my best friend from when we were children (been friends for 17 years) who lives across the country loves it and watches religiously and we have something fun to talk about-- it is goofy, but at least an action-type show. </p> <p>I really have a hard time drawing fashion inspiration for actresses that play teens or even young twenty-somethings (bad, because the second is my age group). The actresses body types are so different than mine, even when I was 16 and a size 2. Also, the lifestyles and the maturity levels of the characters seem to be reflected in the fashion. I guess it is like runway and print, an inspiration and a starting point only. Things like Gossip Girl and Twilight confound me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305014 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 19:42:36 +0000 CocoLion 305014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite inspiration is old movies. Even if I don't copy those looks, I love the beauty and tailoring expertise from that era.</p> <p>I admit to watching Real Housewives of Bev. Hills and the Kardashians and looking at their clothing although nothing's my style. They all wear extremely high heels. It's just fun to watch, even though the Kardashians are so fake and kind of boring. You just can't help yourself!</p> <p>Malina -- Bad Girls Club LOL. I saw it once, and they go really skanky in that show. They constantly have to put patches over the crotch areas because their clothing is so show-all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-305011 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 19:34:51 +0000 Jonesy 305011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You mean like the Academy Awards :)?

She started watching it for the wardrobe of one character.<br /> I admit to now watching more carefully what older newswomen are wearing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-304904 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 17:11:13 +0000 tarzy 304904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't specifically watch bad TV shows, but I do see a lot of great outfits on characters on various shows, and I always wish there was a specific website you could go to to find out where to buy those items (or similar things.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-304900 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 16:40:08 +0000 nicoleb 304900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hahaha Mo! No i don't think Bad Girls Club is a great place to get any kind of inspiration from. XD</p> <p>I remember Lipstick Jungle! They were trying to say it was going to be the new Sex &amp; The City when it first came out but...it....was not. I liked some of the funky chicks outfits...I have no idea who the actress is..I think she was asian? Or at least part asian? She had pretty eyes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-304887 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 16:15:45 +0000 Anonymous 304887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I never really watched the show, but I liked a lot of the outfits on Lipstick Jungle, that cancelled Brooke Shields show. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-304881 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 15:41:21 +0000 Mo 304881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried this once last week since I'm laid up and bad TV is part of the routine. I clicked on Bad Girls Club. Bad idea! They wear tanks and boyshorts or hooker dresses lol. Maybe I need to find different bad TV to peruse for ideas. I honestly catch myself eyeing what ladies in commercials are wearing, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-ever-watch-dumb-tv-to-look-at-the-oufits#post-304877 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 15:38:29 +0000 nicoleb 304877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Because i do lol. Actually i'm super guilty of this. My husband always makes fun of me. But i've also gotten a lot of good inspiration from it!</p> <p>And while we're on the subject i'm currently obsessing over an outfit from the show, Pretty Little Liars (which, again, is not what i consider a good show, but the oufits are adorable to me.). The top was on sale for $40 @ Nordstrom's but is now sold out. So now i have my eyes open for printed shirts with sheer shoulder cut outs. I'm actually digging those pants/leggings too now and i never would of considered them before...</p> <p>So yeah, anyone else do this on here? Or am I alone in my insanity? </p>
