Shailene Woodley’s Fashion Flop

I never really understood her ABC Family series, “The Secret Life of an American Teenager,” but I gave it a shot anyways. It didn’t make sense to me that “Secret” was still in the title especially after the actual secret was spoiled within the first season. I also didn’t get why everyone in the show was obsessed with sex and relationships, but moreso sex – and don’t even get me started on the acting. I do not, however, doubt her acting performance in The Descendants. I have yet to see the film, but when a film gets nominated for Best Picture, you kind of assume that it’s good stuff right?

At the Golden Globes last night, Shailene Woodley’s Marchesa gown was stunning. Not only was it one of my favorite gowns from the collection, but Shailene wore it well topping my list of best dressed for the night. During the after party, she changed into yet another beautiful gown by Calvin Klein. It looked like the young actress was well on her way to becoming a budding style icon until…we got a shot of her footwear. Instead of opting for standard Jimmy Choos or Manolos, Shailene went for a pair of awkward Vibram “Five Finger” shoes. WHY!!! She was doing so well. Poor girl, I suppose I should be more sympathetic considering she was probably on her feet all night, but still. We’ve all got our own fashion rules. This dress deserved to be paired with something amazing, but instead we were graced with something resembling of webbed feet. If I were her, I would’ve kept my feet hidden the entire rest of the evening. I do commend her for making such a bold move though and going for comfort on this one.
