What Not to Wear


What Not to Wear airs on TLC Tuesday 9pm est. time. Check your local listings as they often air repeats.

The hosts of What Not to Wear are the fashion experts Stacy London and Clinton Kelly. They give unsuspecting women a makeover. These women are frumpy, stuck in certain year, slutty, dress like children and on and on. The catch is that they have to fly to NY and give up their whole wardrobe in exchange for a $5,000 Visa card to go shopping. Stacy and Clinton give excellent makeovers and are great in helping these women overcome whatever it was holding them back from being fabulous. Once the participant goes shopping they get a haircut from Ted Gibson and makeup from Carmindy. At the end of the show they go and reveal themselves to families and friends.

The only problem I have with this show is I don’t believe everyone should look the same. That would make for a boring world. People express themselves with their clothes and hair and just because it’s not what is considered normal doesn’t mean it’s not okay to wear. I enjoy watching because the makeovers are not only external but also internal. I also get lots of fashion ideas. To nominate someone you know or to give yourself a makeover watch What Not to Wear.
