Opera was never so cool

This morning I was watching music videos and I saw the Evanescence one "Call Me When You're Sober" (completely and totally awesome...I am in love with both song and scene) and Amy Lee is wearing this gorgeous plaid dress. I can't find any sufficient pics so I think the awesome video will do.



Don't you love it? Don't you love everything about this video: the dress, the set, the idea, and overall the SONG!

Still, I don't know if I could pull the look off. I have too dark of skin and I'm way, way short. I think this is truly an Amy Lee thing. She's not too fat or super skinny and she is just so gorgeous. Seriously, that is beauty. If you can pull a plaid dress off and still look amazing, than you are like a god in my eyes. But if you can't...

Take Sarah Jessica Parker. She has a great, chic NYC style that is made so iconic in "Sex and the City". But this, no, you just don't submit plaid to being draped like that; like it is any less important or unworthy of being actually molded to the human body.

I can't decide whether I like it though, I mean without the plaid, yes, she probably wouldn't be on the Worst Dressed List, but I doubt that she would be remembered. This dress is infamous (at least according to certain Hollywood gossip sites). The red just pops out so nicely against the pale beige . Actually, after staring at this for a little while I have grown to like it. The problem? It is way too haute couture for the general public. More runway.
