6 Reasons Option Traders Fail

Why Traders Fail It's a common question – Why do so many new option traders go bust before they even learn the business? It’s not easy to become a profitable trader. In addition to learning that which must be learned, there’s the perpetual problem of fighting bad habits or allowing certain personality traits to get in the way of making sound trade decisions. Basically, there are a lot of things that can go wrong which destroy a person’s chance to become a successful trader. Independent trader and blogger Mark Minervini recently spelled out to Charles Kirk of The Kirk Report why many option traders never find success. Kirk :  Why do you think most traders fail? Mark Minervini :  Here are six reasons: #1.      Poor selection criteria; usually based on personal opinion, theory or tips and bad advice #2.      They don't stick to and commit to an approach; style drift #3.      They don't cut their  losses – the top mistake made by virtually all investors #4.      Don't know the truth about their trading – they fail to conduct in-depth post analysis of their trade results #5.      Treat trading as a hobby and not a business #6.      Want too much too fast; learning a skill takes time There’s a lot of important meat in those few lines of text. We all recognize that it’s not easy to cut losses, but I firmly believe that this results in more grief for traders than anything else. What causes a trader to suffer a big hit? I believe that it’s the unwillingness to accept that a trade is not working, and that it’s not likely to get any better if held longer. Under those conditions, losses mount. The only way to prevent that big loss is to cut it off at its knees — and the time to do that occurs when it’s a much smaller loss. The difficulty is sacrificing the possibility that the trade would turn profitable. My advice: Get over it. Many trades will be unprofitable.  That’s a fact of life for a trader. I understand that on a rare occasion a gap opening may do irreparable damage, and not provide an opportunity to take the small loss. However, that’s also a preventable occurrence. If the damage is too great, then the position was too large. It's that simple. Mark Minervini’s tips and my comments may seem simple. That’s because they are simple — and that simplicity makes people doubt their importance. How many of us look at trades after the position is closed? How many dissect the entire trade in an attempt to find out what was done correctly and what mistakes were made? Very few. A mistake is not a trade that loses money. A mistake is making a decision that was clearly incorrect at the time, but the trader was unable to see it.  Another mistake is avoiding a trading plan and not doing postmortems on your trades. Admittedly, that takes time. However, if you take trading seriously, and do not consider it to be a hobby, you must recognize there’s work to be done. Mistakes are part of the game. Making the same mistake repeatedly is not. At least it’s not part of any successful trader’s game. Mark Wolfinger has been a professional options trader since 1977. He was a CBOE market maker from 1977 through 2000 and has been an author and educator since 2000. Mark has written four books and writes the Options for Rookies blog.

Economists have been saying for the last few years that Japan has been stagnating, and many of those economists believe that the United States is turning into another Japan. But maybe, just maybe, there may be a turn-around in the ‘Land of the Rising Sun’. After all, the iShares MSCI Japan Index (EWJ) is up 20.8% since July 1 of last year. Japan has the third largest economy in the world based on gross domestic product for purchasing power parity and nominal GDP. Three quarters of the GDP comes from the service sector. The countries unemployment rate is 5.1%. The Tokyo Stock Exchange is the largest exchange in the world outside of the United States. There are over 15 different Japanese companies that trade on American stock exchanges, according to WallStreetNewsNetwork.com. The Tokyo based Canon Inc. (CAJ), the popular manufacturer of copying machines, laser printers, inkjet printers, and cameras, pays a decent 2.3% yield and trades at 19 times forward earnings. The price earnings growth ratio is a very reasonable 0.96. Earnings for the quarter ending September 30 were up an astounding 85.6% on a 17.9% rise in revenues. The company reports earnings on January 27. Toyota Motor Corp. (TM) is another Japanese dividend payer, yielding 1.1%. This manufacturer of cars, minivans, SUVs, and trucks has a forward price to earnings ratio of 20.7. Earnings for the latest quarter ending September 30 were up an incredible 352%, with sales increasing by 5.8%. Toyota reports February 4.

Prior to opening bell this morning, the major market index composites were trending in the green. Today is Tuesday, January 18th, and is the first day of open market trading in the United States for this week. Markets were closed Monday due to the Martin Luther King holiday. Early index values for the Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq and S&P 500 were trending in positive territory prior to open session trading this morning and early morning trending held positive as the indexes continued to incline. Last week ended in the green as traders prepared for more positive earnings reports expected out this week. Recent news today may pull this optimism down however. Citigroup reported a weaker than expected earnings report and anxieties stemming from Apple CEO Steve Jobs’ medical leave of absence, his third in a decade, may extinguish investor optimism. The Empire State Manufacturing Survey, which is a monthly survey of manufacturers in New York Sate, reported a reading of 11.9 for the month of January. The reading fell in line with investors anticipated report of 12.0 and shows an increase from 9.9 the previous month. The National Association of Homebuilder’s Housing Market Index came in unchanged at 16. Economists had anticipated the builder sentiment index to remain unchanged from December to January. Approaching mid day the major market indexes are in the green. Dow is up 60.69 points or 0.51% to 11,848.07. Nasdaq is up 2.26 points or 0.08% to 2,757.55.

Wednesday’s Apple Rumors — iPhone’s Next Stop?

Here are your daily Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ) news items and rumors for Wednesday: GSM iPhone Coming in March: The Verizon (NYSE: VZ ) iPhone is already old news as new rumors begin about Apple’s other plans for 2011. Apple Chief Operating Officer Tim Cook confirmed that the new deal with Verizon is nonexclusive, leaving open the opportunity for a new CDMA-standard iPhone to also hit Sprint Nextel’s (NYSE: S ) network this year. It also means that carriers with GSM standard 3G networks like T-Mobile USA may get a model of iPhone of their own in 2011. According to an anonymous source speaking to Redmond Pie Wednesday, the Personal Hotspot mobile WiFi feature Apple introduced with the new Verizon CDMA iPhone will come to all iPhones running the iOS 4 platform in March, including a brand new GSM standard iPhone due out that month. The tipster even provided images of the Personal Hotspot tool running on a beta version of iOS version 4.3 due in March. Verizon Getting CDMA iPad: Verizon’s relationship with Apple is strengthening in more ways than one. Although the telecom has been selling Apple’s iPad since October, it has only offered the 16GB and 32GB WiFi-only models of the tablet PC, substituting the lack of internal support for Verizon’s 3G network by partnering devices with the carrier’s MiFi mobile hotspots. Bloomberg reported Tuesday that Verizon will begin carrying a CDMA iPad. Details on the new iPad, including whether or not this would be a new version of the current iPad model or an iteration of the oft-rumored second-generation iPad expected later this spring, are still forthcoming. Holiday Sales Predictions: RBC Capital Markets analyst Mike Abramsky is projecting spectacular holiday sales numbers for Apple’s most popular devices, fueling a fourth quarter to break records across the board. Abramsky believes that iPhone sales increased 84% year-on-year during the nine-week holiday period, bringing fourth-quarter iPhone sales up to 16 million. (The previous record was set three months earlier when Apple sold a total 14.1 million iPhones.) Completing what Abramsky calls Apple’s “holiday hat trick” are an expected 6 million iPad sales and 4.2 million Mac desktop and laptop sales for the year-ending quarter, up from respective third-quarter sales of 4.19 million iPads  (when the device was still constrained by supply shortages) and 3.89 million Macs. Microsoft Fights “App Store” Trademark: When Apple’s App Store first launched in 2008, the company filed a trademark application for the name “App Store,” describing it as “retail store services featuring computer software provided via the Internet and other computer and electronic communication networks; Retail store services featuring computer software for use on handheld mobile digital electronic devices and other consumer electronics.” Naturally, that description fits outlets run by Google (NASDAQ: GOOG ), Nokia (NYSE: NOK ), and Research in Motion (NASDAQ: RIMM ) as well. It also fits the description of the Windows Phone Marketplace on Microsoft’s (NASDAQ:MSFT) Windows Phone 7 mobile platform, and Microsoft is not happy that it can’t call its digital storefront an “App Store.” The company has sued to have Apple’s trademark of the term blocked, claiming that “App Store” is too generic a phrase in the current market to be trademarked. As quoted in a PC World report published Wednesday, “…’App Store’ is generic for retail store services featuring apps and unregistrable for ancillary service such as searching for and downloading apps from such stores.” Even if “unregistrable” isn’t a word in the English language, it sounds like Microsoft has a decent case. As of this writing, Anthony John Agnello did not own a position in any of the stocks named here.

Early Market News: Toyota Motor Company (NYSE:TM), JP Morgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM), Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:INTC)

More breaking news stories could affect stocks when trading continues later. The following listed companies should see some movement: Toyota Motor Company (NYSE:TM), JP Morgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM), Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:INTC). Here is a more detailed look at the news that will affect each company when trading continues. Toyota Motor Company (NYSE:TM) Toyota Motor Corporation (NYSE:TM) has planned to halt plants due to heavy snow. Toyota Motor Corporation (NYSE:TM), the leading car maker, has announced that it would be closing afternoon operations on Monday at 12 of its plants in Aichi, Central Japan. Although plants are expected to open again on Tuesday, a spokesman at Toyota Motor Corporation (NYSE:TM) said that the company has been planning to adjust its manufacturing schedules anyway, so the shutdown may not cause any significant impact on production. JP Morgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) has been asked to back credit efforts in China. The state planning body of China has asked J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) to invest in some schemes that offer credit guarantees to small and medium sized enterprises in the country, an initiative aimed at helping these small and medium sized firms find financing support. The persons familiar with the issues said that the news has met with mixed reception at the firm. Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:INTC) Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) has announced the move to 22nm fabrication process. Although the largest chip maker has been using the technology in its high end products for servers and desktops, the shift to use them on all others including the atom processors was the latest one. According to the latest reports, the technology processors will be there all across the board with the 22nm fabrication process. Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) has not made any announcements regarding production dates for this new type of processor. We could possibly see more movement when trading continues for Toyota Motor Company (NYSE:TM), JP Morgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) and Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:INTC).

High Yield Master Limited Partnerships

dow2664
Negocioenlinea

There is a high income producing investment that is an unusual animal, called the Master Limited Partnership and also referred to as an Income Partnership. These investments are not corporations, not exchange traded funds, and not trusts such as real estate investment trusts. They are partnerships with a general partner and many limited partnership units which are traded on a major stock exchange. Let’s first start with the disadvantages. First, you won’t get a 1099-DIV form for filing your taxes on the partnership income. You will instead receive a K-1 Form which involves more tax forms to attach to your Form 1040. This means that if you prepare your own taxes, it will take more time. If you have an accountant prepare your taxes, he or she may charge more due to the extra time involved with the K-1 . Also, you shouldn’t invest in partnerships through a retirement plan such as an IRA due to Unrelated Business Income Tax issues (your tax preparer can provide you with more details). Now the advantages. Partnerships can provide high yields which may be partly or completely tax sheltered. They distribute substantially all of their income, thereby avoiding double taxation. Income distributions are fairly high and are paid quarterly. Most of these partnerships are producers and distributors of oil and gas. WallStreetNewsNetwork.com just updated its list of high yield US Master Limited Partnerships , and found over 15 with yields above 5%. As an example, Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP (BWP), a natural gas pipeline owner and operator, yields 6.4% and trades at twenty times forward earnings. The company has been making quarterly payouts since 2006. NuStar Energy L.P. (NS) stores transports, and markets fuels. It has a yield of 6.3%, and has a forward price to earnings ratio of 21. Quarterly distributions have been made since 2001. Buckeye Partners LP (BPL) is an operator of petroleum product pipelines. The yield is 5.7%, paying distributions since 1994, and the forward PE is 20. For a free downloadable list of these high yield partnerships with yields as high as 7%, go to WallStreetNewsNetwork.com.

High Yield Master Limited Partnerships

AT&T Pullback Presents Buying Opportunity

So far in the new year, equity investors have proved reluctant to take even a
momentary break from their buying binge, which has pushed the Dow up almost 18%
in four months. Rather than going all out, I recommend very cautious,
disciplined accumulation as individual stocks and sectors hit speed bumps. A
perfect example right now is telecom stock AT&T (NYSE: T ). Why the need for
caution? I believe one of these days, perhaps very soon, a couple of adverse
news events will spring out of left field and trigger the next 4%-7% correction
in the blue-chip indexes. We can already see the technical conditions shaping up
for such a pullback . For instance, the number of Big Board stocks trading above
their 50-day moving average currently stands at 73.5%. Back in October, when the
rally off the summer lows was young and robust, the total climbed as high as
90%. As recently as early November (the post-election peak), 88% of NYSE stocks,
by this measure, were participating in the uptrend. So clearly, a significant
percentage of the markets foot soldiers are retreating, even as the generals
continue to cry, Charge! I expect to have a flurry of buy signals for you when
the indexes finally crack. (Were still in a powerful cyclical bull market that
should last another two or three quarters anyway.) So if a sell-off is in the
cards, why am I hot on AT&T right now? Well, telecom stocks soared in December
and early January the old, familiar case of too much, too soon. Remember, these
are slow-growing utilities, prized mainly for their lofty dividends. Thanks to
Ts stiff price drop over the past few sessions, the stocks dividend yield has
crept back above 6%. I prefer Ma Bell these days over Verizon Communications
(NYSE: VZ ), because Ts earnings are growing faster and the yield is higher. Pay
up to $28.50 for T. Elsewhere in the utility space, Duke Energy (NYSE: DUK )
announced plans Monday to acquire North Carolina neighbor Progress Energy (NYSE:
PGN ). Terms of the deal seem fair enough to both sides, but I dont look for
huge cost savings or a dramatic pick-up in earnings growth. Both stocks rate a
hold if you own them. Bonus Bond ETF Buy Finally, my heart goes out to those of
you who live in Illinois. It looks as if your governor and state legislators are
about to sock you with a mammoth tax increase to plug the gaping $15 billion
hole in the Prairie States budget. Lets hope the new legislature will get
serious about cutting the states runaway spending. Meanwhile, for investors,
there may be a silver lining in this black cloud: If Illinois, one of the worst
fiscal actors among the states, takes a first step away from the abyss, some of
the fear that has roiled the municipal bond market may begin to subside. To take
advantage of this, buy the PowerShares Build America Bond Portfolio (NYSE: BAB )
at $25.50 or less. Technically, BAB is showing excellent relative strength
versus Treasury bonds. Hang in there; I think well be rewarded soon. BABs
current yield is 6% (fully taxable).

Early Market News: General Electric Co. (NYSE:GE), Dell (NASDAQ:DELL), Yum! Brands Inc. (NYSE:YUM)

More breaking news stories could affect stocks when trading continues later.
The following listed companies should see some movement: General Electric Co.
(NYSE:GE), Dell (NASDAQ:DELL), Yum! Brands Inc. (NYSE:YUM). Here is a more
detailed look at the news that will affect each company when trading continues.
General Electric Co. (NYSE:GE) General Electric (NYSE:GE) has planned to invest
$520 million in green power technologies. The company revealed in a statement
yesterday that it has plans to buy a power conversion technology company for an
amount of $520 million.br> The new move is a part of its decision to boost the
energy efficiency of its cloud computing, smart phone and datacenter markets.
Dan Heintzelman, General Electric (NYSE:GE) Energy Services president and chief
executive, said, According to recent studies, there will be 1.1 billion
smartphones sold globally by 2013. Every new mobile device plugs into an
infrastructure that requires an ever-increasing amount of high-quality power. As
the data-driven economy grows, the addition of Lineage Powers business platform
continues the expansion of GE Energys offerings from the electric grid to data
centers, cell towers, routers, servers and circuit board electronics. Dell
(NASDAQ:DELL) Dell (NASDAQ:DELL) has planned to combine its public and
large-enterprise business units. As a part of move to enhance its position as an
information-technology provider, the US based computer giant has decided to
combine its both business units into a single operation which will be led by
public unit head Paul Bell. Dell (NASDAQ:DELL) has also named Steve
Schuckenbrock as the new president of its services business. He will replace
Peter Altabef, who is leaving Dell (NASDAQ:DELL) after leading the integration
of Perot Systems into the company. Yum! Brands Inc. (NYSE:YUM) Yum! Brands Inc.
(NYSE:YUM) has extended its deal with race track operator Churchill Downs. The
renewal of the agreement will allow Yum! Brands Inc. (NYSE:YUM) to remain as the
sponsor of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs through 2015. However the
financial terms of the deal are not disclosed yet. A part of the revenue
generated by this new agreement with Yum! Brands Inc. (NYSE:YUM) will go to race
purses through a formula agreed upon in the most recent agreement between the
track and horsemen. Expect more movement when trading continues for General
Electric Co. (NYSE:GE), Dell (NASDAQ:DELL) and Yum! Brands Inc. (NYSE:YUM).

Today’s Gold, Silver, Platinum, Copper Price Per Ounce Pound Contract Values; Precious Metal Commodity News January 18th open;

Recent close values for Gold, Silver, and Platinum were in the red. A majority
of precious metal commodities fell lower during the last trading session in the
United States as investors turned their attention away from safe haven asset
investing and towards stronger anticipated earnings reports this week. Gold for
February delivery recently fell into the red by 26.50 with a last floor trade of
$1,360.50 an ounce for February contract delivery. Silver fell by .943 and
dropped to a floor price of $28.32 an ounce for March delivery. Platinum dropped
by 5.20 to a floor price of $1,816 an ounce for April delivery. Copper moved
higher by .035 and ended with a floor price of $4.41 per pound for March
delivery. The one month change for Gold is negative by 1.45% but for the year
overall it is positive by 20.07%. The one month change for Silver is negative by
2.93% but positive by a staggering 51.69 percent for the year change. Platinums
one month change is in the green by 6.03% and the one year change is positive by
11.89% overall. Copper has been moving forward consistently as well. Coppers one
month change is in the green by 5.03% and for its one year change, it is
positive by 28.27%. Many analysts believe that the growing demand stemming from
India and China will continue to place upward pressure on the price of precious

Recent close values for Gold, Silver, and Platinum were in the red. A majority of precious metal commodities fell lower during the last trading session in the United States as investors turned their attention away from safe haven asset investing and towards stronger anticipated earnings reports this week. Gold for February delivery recently fell into the red by 26.50 with a last floor trade of $1,360.50 an ounce for February contract delivery. Silver fell by .943 and dropped to a floor price of $28.32 an ounce for March delivery. Platinum dropped by 5.20 to a floor price of $1,816 an ounce for April delivery. Copper moved higher by .035 and ended with a floor price of $4.41 per pound for March delivery. The one month change for Gold is negative by 1.45% but for the year overall it is positive by 20.07%. The one month change for Silver is negative by 2.93% but positive by a staggering 51.69 percent for the year change. Platinum’s one month change is in the green by 6.03% and the one year change is positive by 11.89% overall. Copper has been moving forward consistently as well. Copper’s one month change is in the green by 5.03% and for its one year change, it is positive by 28.27%. Many analysts believe that the growing demand stemming from India and China will continue to place upward pressure on the price of precious metals like gold and that values will continue to bump higher in 2011.

Top U.S.-Listed Chinese Stocks with Highest Profit Margin (Jan 17, 2011)

AT&T Pullback Presents Buying Opportunity

So far in the new year, equity investors have proved reluctant to take even a momentary break from their buying binge, which has pushed the Dow up almost 18% in four months. Rather than going all out, I recommend very cautious, disciplined accumulation as individual stocks and sectors hit speed bumps. A perfect example right now is telecom stock AT&T (NYSE: T ). Why the need for caution? I believe one of these days, perhaps very soon, a couple of adverse news events will spring out of left field and trigger the next 4%-7% “correction” in the blue-chip indexes. We can already see the technical conditions shaping up for such a pullback . For instance, the number of Big Board stocks trading above their 50-day moving average currently stands at 73.5%. Back in October, when the rally off the summer lows was young and robust, the total climbed as high as 90%. As recently as early November (the post-election peak), 88% of NYSE stocks, by this measure, were participating in the uptrend. So clearly, a significant percentage of the market’s foot soldiers are retreating, even as the generals continue to cry, “Charge!” I expect to have a flurry of buy signals for you when the indexes finally crack. (We’re still in a powerful cyclical bull market that should last another two or three quarters anyway.) So if a sell-off is in the cards, why am I hot on AT&T right now? Well, telecom stocks soared in December and early January — the old, familiar case of too much, too soon. Remember, these are slow-growing utilities, prized mainly for their lofty dividends. Thanks to T’s stiff price drop over the past few sessions, the stock’s dividend yield has crept back above 6%. I prefer Ma Bell these days over Verizon Communications (NYSE: VZ ), because T’s earnings are growing faster and the yield is higher. Pay up to $28.50 for T. Elsewhere in the utility space, Duke Energy (NYSE: DUK ) announced plans Monday to acquire North Carolina neighbor Progress Energy (NYSE: PGN ). Terms of the deal seem fair enough to both sides, but I don’t look for huge cost savings or a dramatic pick-up in earnings growth. Both stocks rate a hold if you own them. Bonus Bond ETF Buy Finally, my heart goes out to those of you who live in Illinois. It looks as if your governor and state legislators are about to sock you with a mammoth tax increase to plug the gaping $15 billion hole in the Prairie State’s budget. Let’s hope the new legislature will get serious about cutting the state’s runaway spending. Meanwhile, for investors, there may be a silver lining in this black cloud: If Illinois, one of the worst fiscal actors among the states, takes a first step away from the abyss, some of the fear that has roiled the municipal bond market may begin to subside. To take advantage of this, buy the PowerShares Build America Bond Portfolio (NYSE: BAB ) at $25.50 or less. Technically, BAB is showing excellent relative strength versus Treasury bonds. Hang in there; I think we’ll be rewarded soon. BAB’s current yield is 6% (fully taxable).

Federal Unemployment Benefit Extension News January 18th, 2010; Government Benefits for Unemployed and Out of Work Americans Helping

dow2664
Negocioenlinea

The overall unemployment rate across the United States recently dropped from 9.8% to 9.4%. This was positive news in light of the number of Americans filing for first time unemployment benefits insurance. Recently, Federal Reserve Chairman, Ben Bernanke, stated that the overall national unemployment average is likely to stay elevated for up to five years. Bernanke also said that the unemployment rate is likely to stay near 8 percent for the next couple of years. Several days ago, the Labor Department reported that first time applications for unemployment benefits rose 35,000 from the previous week. This was unexpected and disappointing news. The Labor Department also posted that wholesale prices were on the rise and a connection was made that the higher energy and food costs are helping to push wholesale prices higher. The Commerce Department posted the Consumer Price Index, which is a measure of wholesale inflation, and relayed that it rose 1.1% in December. This is all bad news for those Americans that are out of work and trying to once again secure a stable job and income. All of this data reveals the continued need for federal insurance benefits and validates the recent extension titled, "Tax Reform, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Jobs Creation Act of 2010.” Currently, there are more Americans filing applications for first time unemployment benefits and at the same time, the cost of energy and food in America is moving higher. Americans are in need and the benefit extension is helping. Author: Stephen Johnson

Sigo con otra lista de mis chicas favoritas, las que ni fu ni fá, y las que fueron el fiasco de la noche, porque estoy mala mala y no perdono si un solo detalle -digo, tienen para contratar asesores de moda, no? entoncen no hay perdón acá.

Empiezo por Olivia Wilde, que fue la primer en llegar y deslumbró maaaaaal a propios y ajenos con este Marchesa que estaba simplemente, de LUJO. Como les decía en el post anterior, lo de ir brillos está muy de moda y ella lo hizo probablemente mejor que todas.

Lo mejor de todo, para mi, fue que si su vestido tenía algún mini brillo dorado, acá se divirtió y dejó volar su imaginación con unos botines dorados alucinantes de Mr. Louboutin.

Y claro, la chica sabe que con tanto brillo y dorado, el resto debe ser lindo, limpio y simple.

Mi otra favorita fue Leighton Meester con este vestido de Burberry. Llevar estampados a una alfombra roja puede ser engañoso, hay quienes creen que es mejor dejarlos para las fiestas y no para estos eventos, sin embargo, creo que la forma en la que llevó este vestido en animal print -muy sueve, eso sí- fue simplemente maestra. Pese al estampado de pies a cabeza -y mangas- la chica supo llevar con elegancia el vestido y no dejar que el vestido la lleve a ella.

Naturalmente, Leighton sabe así que con todo ese estampado salvaje encima, el maquillaje y peinado fueron suaves y femeninos. ¡Dime que lo amas!

Amy Adams en su Marchesa azul. Normal,  o sea, yo no me pondría un vestido con tanto vuelo  3D en brazos y caderas pero  aparentemente a ella le funciona. Eso sí, con esos vuelos en el brazo, igual que en el post anterior con Lea Michelle y su Oscar de La Renta, creo que debemos sujetarnos bien el pelo o llevarlo simple, lacio y planchado.

Eva rooooooooooocks este vestido de Zac Posen. No se le ve simplemente MA-TA-DO-RA??? Perfeta a la vela.

Desconozco a Jennifer Lawrence, pero, PERO, cuando vi este Louis Vuitton salté de emoción por haberlo llevado de la pasarela al red carpet. Igual que Leighton, este pudo haber sido un fail total pero ella se lució como la mejor. Loved it (y ojo que yo le tengo pánico a los vuelos en exceso).

Señores, he decidio que después de tener un hijo, es así como quiero quedar. Igualitita. Qué tal Halle!!!! Dime si no se vio sensual pero elegante, cuerpazo total y estilo en la vena, no podía dejar de ver lo bien que le armaba ese corsé poniéndole el busto donde tiene que estar (no como Michelle Williams), marcando la cintura y dejando ver pero nunca tanto unas piernas de infarto. De hecho, un vestido lo suficientemente matador como para llevar muchos accesorios, así que mantenerlos al mínimo fue la mejor decisión. Por otro lado, gracias a Dios no imitó el look de pasarela con las botas, porque ahí sí la hubieramos puesto a chambear en el reencuentro de las Dalinas de Nubeluz. Así que aplausos para Halle Berry que estuvo mejor que nunca.

Y por puro amor a la buena conservación, cuando esté sesentona quiero verme así. Raaaaaaaagia la señora Jane Fonda, o qué???

¿Sabes quien es Piper Perabo? A que no. ¿Viste Coyote Ugly? Entonces ya sabes que sí. No se bien qué hacía en esta premiación, pero de que se le vio fabu-fabu en un Oscar de La Renta, se le vió. Y me hizo caso, cuando en el hombro llevas mucho volumen, es mejor mantener un painado prolijo y sobrio, no como otra mamacita que ahora te muestro. Qué elegantísima, lo amé.

Emociones encontradas. Lindo verla tan “angelical”, pero siento que ese chalcito debió quedarse en la foto. ¿ O no?.

No, ya se qué está mal, es el maquillaje platinado -para hacerle juego al vestido- que lo hizo todo muy querubin. Creo que Jennifer necesita un poco de color en su vida, ir taaaaan pálida no le sienta muy bien. Y chequea bien la foto que ya me siento  mejor, los poros abiertos y las marquitas de acné nos auspician a todos, nadie se salva.

Una que, mmmmmmmm, no me provoca. Un vestido que simplemente me parece mal, para ella. A ver, mi amiga Jennifer Love-Hewitt tiene un “busto prominente”, cintura de de -1 y caderas de +100. ¿No?. Dicho esto, qué pasaba por su linda cabecita cuando se ponía un vestido con efecto tridimencional en el escote y tremendos pliegues en ambas -no una-, en ambas caderas. Para mi, parecía como un jarrón ornamental. He dicho. Y encima, con un moño que apuntaba a la vía láctea, ayayayayaayyyyyyyy.

No se si me van a creer o no, pero me fascinó el look de Tilda Swinton. La mujer suele ser andrógina, un poco excentrica y muy particular, pero siento que esta falda de Jill Sander fue maravillosa en ella, y haber cambiado el polo por la camisa blanca el balance justo para jugar entre lo masculino y femenino. A ella no le podemos agregar un cinturon, aretes ni collares, nada de labios rojos o un clutch de cenicienta. Ella es así, y así estuvo perfecta.

Otra perfectita fue Julianna Margulies en un vintage YSL. Amo a esta mujer en The Good Wife aunque no la amaba tanto en E.R. Pero no importa, ella viene deslumbrando en las alfombras rojas con looks super sobrios y propios de una señora. Además, pink+black = ya sabes, le amo.

Mmmmmmmm, qué me dicen de Sofía Vergara. Yo digo que es muy linda, guapa, llamativa y voluptuosa. Ruego por verla un día con una elegancia sobria y sexy, a lo Sofía Lauren, pero mientras tanto, ella sigue probando estilos esta vez, con Vera Wang. Por delante, lindo,el vetsido abrazaba magistralmente sus curvas.

Por detrás, no entendí esos huecos de corsé sin amarrar pero la cinta negra con esa linda caída me pareció perfecta.

Y su maquillaje bien puesto. Nunca tanto porque su vestido ya era lo suficientemente llamativo, asi que perfect. Ajá, lo he decidio, quiero usar algún día un vestido rojo.

January Jones dejó sin habla al pobre de Ryan Seacrest con este Versace de infarto. Creo que ella es lo suficientemente elegante como para lograrlo, PERO, se me hace menos femme fatal en celeste!!! Qué les parece a ustedes??? En rojo o celeste???

Y hablando de celestes, Mandy Moore en un Monique Lhuillier que Mandy querida, tu pelo combina con el ruedo de la falda, qué tal peinarte un poquito más como para dejar ver el escote -que de por sí, ya estaba tapado? No se, yo solo digo.

Y aquí comienzo a infartarme. Sorry con los fans de Christina Aguilera pero, ¿qué pensaba? O sea, no quiero desmerecer el vestido. El encaje está a full y el nude también pero lo cierto es que Christina aún no recupera su figura y con tanto color “carne” me parece un paté. Si el vestido hubiera tenido más negro la cosa hubiera sido otra. Creo que este modelo es para alguien muy fit, muy en línea. Y punto, demasiado color carne de fondo, demasiado pelo platinado, no lo se, muchas cosas que no me cuadran. ¿A ti?

Christina Hendricks es curvilínea y voluptuosa mal. Tiene su propio sentido de la moda y no voy a criticar eso, si no lo que les decía arriba. Cuando usen volumen en los hombros, pelos para atráz. Y no se si recuerdan algo que también les dije hace tiempo, y es que los vestido de un solo hombro llevan toda la atención a la cara, así que cuando lo usen deben estar perfactemente maquillajas y peinadas. Aquí el pelo compite con la flor XL que a la vez compite con su busto. Demasiada competencia.

Y esta señora sí que no tiene perdón de Dios ah! No solo es super modelo si no que lleva un reality de moda y últimamente no solo conduce si no que también es jurado, así que dos cosas: O la presión es tal que pierde la brújula y termina…así, o tiene el sentido de la moda torcido. Por lindo y por Marc Jacobs que sea el vestido, no puedes perder de vista que hay cosas que en la alfombra roja simplemente no-se-ven-bien.

Y qué decimos del esposo??? Yo mejor no digo nada porque no se si me gusta o no. Mejor dicho, me gusta, pero no para una alfombra rojo tampoco. Demasiado escote, un traje demasiado brillante, zapatos con fuego…tal vez para un premio MTV, pero no para un Golden Globe, pero esa es solo mi opinión.

Eso sí, hay que reconocer que el maquillaje de Heidi como diría mi mami, está que da la hora. Atentas y obsesiónense con el color coral- especialmente ahora que estamos en verano-.

Les paso ahora las postas a ustedes. COMENTARIOS!!!
