Henspiration!


So as many of you know, last week was "Celebrity Doppleganger" week in the land of Facebook, and at first I was at a loss as to who I should choose - my dear, blind, loving husband has said he thinks I look a little like Cameron Diaz, and I've heard a few times recently that I look a little like Elizabeth Mitchell who plays Juliette on LOST, but it wasn't until I randomly came across the above picture that I realized which celebrity I most closely resembled...MISS PIGGY!
While there are many things about the sassy sow that I could do without in my own life (the insanely grating, high pitched voice and the penchant for skinny green guys) I have to say I admire Miss Piggys sense of style! The pig is glamorous!! She always does an amazing job of being true to herself and her own fashion rules (just try to find her without some serious jewelry, the heavy makeup, and some elbow length gloves!) she does a great job of also encorporating current fashion trends. She had the Farah flip back in the day, a shorter chunky cut a-la Jennifer Aniston in the 90's, and these days she's sporting the sleek blown-out tresses that require a Chi flatiron. AND - she has AMAZING shoes! Granted, I don't know how comfortable those hooves are after being pinched into stilettos all day, but she rocks it! And as strange as it sounds, I'm a little inspired by this Henson creation...could that be called Henspiration!? Ahaha!!
So while I'm going to keep the karate chopping at a minimum and will refrain from referring to myself as "Moi," I think I'm going to try to glam it up just a little bit in my life. Maybe rock the tennis shoes a little less and wear a few more pieces of jewelry. And always, always try to have fabulous hair.
Here are a few quotes by my new muse:
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and it may become necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye."
~Miss Piggy
"A lady should never eat more than she can lift."
~Miss Piggy
"Only time can heal your broken heart, just as only time can heal his arms and legs."
~Miss Piggy
