LeAnn Rimes’ pap-stroll street style: hippie chic or fashion fail?

FFN_Rimes_LeAnn_EXC_FF7FF9_053015_51758552

Whenever LeAnn Rimes doesn’t have any kind of crazy outbursts for several weeks in a row, I start to wonder is some kind of big implosion is about to happen. LeAnn had a pretty quiet May – she performed some smaller concerts, she tried to shill some of her projects (something about a new album, I guess), and she tweeted and Instagrammed a lot. That’s about it. Is something bigger about to happen?

These are photos of LeAnn out and about in LA on Saturday. I’m absolutely sure she arranged to get pap’d, so let’s talk about her outfit, since I’m sure she wants us to see it. I actually like the sort of hippie, flowy sort of looks on most women. Sometimes ladies can go too far and it looks like a costume (Vanessa Hudgens), but I’m always going to enjoy a peasant blouse and cute smocking. I’m not sure about this… what it is? Like, a jacket? A duster? Whatever it is, it seems like a fashion fail and it doesn’t even go with the booty-short cutoffs!

Brandi Glanville recently tweeted about getting along with Eddie and LeAnn these days, and how she doesn’t want a lot of drama on her Twitter feed. LeAnn hasn’t made any similar statements – LeAnn actually seems to still court the Brandi drama, even after all this time.

This weekend was also one of Eddie’s sons’ birthdays, and I guess Eddie and LeAnn threw a party that involved huge inflatable soccer balls and pizza slices. I know this because LeAnn IG’d the whole thing. She used her step-son’s 12th birthday party as an opportunity to pose in a bikini bottom and a see-through top?

    Ugh

  2. Susie Q says:

    She looks like a clown at a Ukrainian picnic.
    No offence intended towards Ukrainians or clowns.

  3. anniefannie says:

    I can’t imagine a good angle for this ensemble? The sandals are really unflattering too!
    If she called the paps to catch this she’s delusional…

  4. SmellyCat says:

    Those pics aren’t just cringeworthy, they’re gagworthy!! She looks crazy . Somewhere there’s a village missing it’s idiot.

  5. Arock says:

    It’s considered a Kimono. As in kimo- no.
    Nice outfit for a kids party, if youre the entertainment. Did she set up a pole next to the pony rides and face painting?

    • NerdMomma says:

      Indeed. That’s a pretty crazy choice of outfits to wear around a bunch of 12 year old boys. She strikes me as the kind of sick and sad woman who would enjoy the attention of any male, including prepubescent ones. Thank goodness she went into singing and not into teaching, or we’d be seeing her on the six o’clock news.

      • Julie says:

        @NerdMomma, my thoughts exactly! That little fringe get up just screams “look at me boys” She is pathetic.

    • JenniferJustice says:

      Agreed – her outfits at the kids’ soccer games and parties are really inappropriate, but I do not think she does it for the male kids. She does it to compete with any woman at the party that Eddie might eye and she does it for any dad’s who drop their kid off at the party. She has no sense of decency and so unaware of her own motives, it’s really ridiculous.

      • doofus says:

        I honestly think that she does it for EVERY male present. def for Eddie (like he cares…) to “compete” with the other women, and def for any Dads that may be there.

        but I do also think she does it for her pre-teen stepson and his friends, because she wants to make sure that he and his friends think that she is “sexier” than his real mother. which is gag-inducing on its own. but she’s that sick in the head.

    • Camille (The Original) says:

      Yep its a kimono, very ‘in fashion’ and if you check out ASOS she is pretty much wearing what you’d see on there.

    • jenn12 says:

      I swear, she never changes. This is someone who dresses provocatively and acts hypersexual in front of kids and gets people to photograph it. Soccer games, birthday parties, two family vacations… what the actual hell is wrong with this woman? Didn’t she do the ice challenge and have EC and his kids pouring ice water over her as she wore a skimpy tank top, and the kids were yelling, “Breasts!” She likes it; she likes the attention. I don’t know who her imagined or real audience is, but she is seriously inappropriate in front of kids.

  6. Rita says:

    Maybe she’s quieted down because even she is beginning to realize that nobody gives a crap about her any more; and that includes Eddie.

    • jenn12 says:

      No, she is still active on her million fake accounts and is blatantly favoring nasty tweets towards Brandi. I think she’s a bit nervous, because Mason is coming onto social media and there’s a whole lot for him to find.

      • Byte Me says:

        Well then she has an awful lot to be nervous about. Karma and all.

      • funcakes says:

        As usual she had a meltdown around mother’s day. Plus she’s been called to the carpet several times for possible plagiarism for not citing the original author with her chalk talk. A couple of the author had to ask her to cite them
        Now she’s down to her own words and it’s very sparse to say the least.

  7. claire says:

    She really needs to stop obsessing over Chrissy Teigen and the other tall models she pins on Pinterest and try to find clothing that actually fits her height and shape.

    • Jess says:

      I was about to say the same, she dresses like she has Brandi’s body and it never works for her.

    • funcakes says:

      Plus she just don’t have the body. She should really dress according to her body type. These outfits are for tall model types.
      She is the average size women. Plus she’s hiding weight gain. She’s been wearing a lot of long flowing jackets or baggy dresses. She photo shop her personal pics to make herself look smaller.
      It’s a shame because everyone fluctuates from time to time. Stop trying to be what you’re not.

  8. cr says:

    What in the hell?!

    • SmellyCat says:

      It looks like she just crawled out of bed after a 10 day drunk. She needs a bath and a sylist asap!

      • funcakes says:

        I just noticed her hair look mated and dirty. Good lord, how long does it take to jump in the shower and shampoo your hair.
        She has all day to groom. It’s not like she’s busy.

  9. Jayna says:

    Is that why Brandi went out and bought a chalk board and started posting what she wrote on it?#chalktalk.

    Ugh, both of these women are disgusting. I saw a recap of some podcast Brandi did and she is gross. They deserve each other.

    • SmellyCat says:

      Not sure what Brandi has to do with these hideous pictures, but she has asked for her followers to stop trashing Ed & Leann. I haven’t seen any similar posts from Leann though!

      • paleokifaru says:

        She asked for that after she created a huge storm by aggressively mocking the Chalk Talk. So Brandi started the negativity and then back peddled when it got too far out of her hands. It wasn’t as generous as this article is reporting.

      • aaa says:

        @paleokifaru,
        Co-sign x1000!

        Brandi started mess with the chalktalk mocking and also making the dishonest claim that she foots the bill for everything when it comes to her sons.

      • OrangeBlohan says:

        So has anyone seen where Leann asked her followers to lay off Brandi? Anyone? Crickets? After all Leann has done, if Brandi jokes about that stupid chalkboard, she is allowed!!

      • jenn12 says:

        What does Leann ask for when she continually favorites nasty tweets towards Brandi publicly and recently? Or when she makes chalk talk posts that the “Cibrian family” was established in 2011, when she forced her way into the picture?

      • Paleokifaru says:

        There are plenty of things wrong with Leanne but let’s not pretend that Brandi made a call for comments to stop out of the goodness of her heart. She started mocking Leanne herself. It was so pointed and obvious that other people picked it up and ran with it. Then it seems she panicked at realizing she wasn’t remotely subtle and back peddled. Do I wish all of them would genuinely call a truce? Yes. But let’s not pretend that it was Brandi’s true intention to actually do that. She went onto Twitter with the intention of slamming Leanne and lost control of it. I’m so tired of people making one out to be a saint and the other a sinner. It’s a complicated situation that no one is handling well, Brandi included.

      • funcakes says:

        And she put the boys full name and birthday. Plus she had to be asked not to take pictures inside the school they attend. And she always has the paparazzi attend the boys games.
        And not only does some of her over zealous fans tried to get Brandi fired they started a petition on line to get her kicked off the show. The same show brandi needs to make a living to feed,clothes and house the step sons Leann claims to love so much.

      • jenn12 says:

        I’m not a Brandi apologist, and think she makes some really dumb moves (blackboard included). However, having watched the timeline, and seeing Leann continually and blatantly favoriting ugly tweets that insulted Brandi’s looks and parenting, and praised Leann as the better “parent” and watching Leann say things like, “We contributed to Brandi’s charity as a family”, as though she were some stranger to her sons, I can see where she can get snarky. I would’ve been full throttle enraged, so I give her credit for whatever restraint she shows. You don’t say things like, “Cibrian Family, established 2011” and not expect some backlash. In this case, Brandi needs to ignore it, but she’s not infallible. I know many stepparents- though none who appeared in their stepkids’ lives the way Leann did- and not one of them oversteps their boundaries and makes constantly nasty remarks the way she does.

  10. Leslie says:

    No matter what she wears, she look awful. Does she not have enough money to hire a stylist?

    • JenniferJustice says:

      She thinks she is a stylist and so doesn’t need a professional who actually knows what they’re doing.

    • Christin says:

      If she wants to show off her fashion sense, she needs to find it first.

    • Tate says:

      She can’t spend money on herself. She needs to spend it on Ed or he is out.

  11. Celeste says:

    From the back that coat looks like a mumu, and makes her ass look a mile wide. Does she have no mirrors in her house?
    Another fashion fail for LeAnn Rimes.

  12. mollie says:

    Oh dear, that rear view…she didn’t look at her hair from the back, either.
    Goodness, this is unfortunate.
    I was also taken aback by the stripper outfit at the stepson’s birthday dinner.
    Also, his birthday isn’t til Monday, so …yeah. She left that out.
    Every single time she begins to redeem herself ever so slightly, she screws it up.
    She’s gross and I’m tired of her.

  13. Jess says:

    She has the worst fashion sense, she’ll almost look decent then completely ruin it with those awful boots she loves or an ugly purse, in this case it’s the kimono or whatever you call it, it would be cute on the beach with a swimsuit, or on someone tall and lean, but not her.

    I almost feel sorry for her lately, she has nothing much going on but endless twitter and Instagram and trying to prove how happy she is to complete strangers. Over 600 Instagram posts in just a few months is ridiculous, I imagine her days are filled with nothing but taking and editing pictures while being ignored by her husband.

  14. boredblond says:

    At first glance, I thought the top with skinny crop jeans might work..but the rear shots changed my mind..I’m glad no one takes pics of my backside..

  15. Byte Me says:

    By looking at her thighs you can sure tell the difference between the pap pics and the heavily photoshopped selfies.

    • Tate says:

      Yep.

    • NinaS says:

      Definitely she slims herself in every selfie. There is a huge difference in her body from pics taken the same day. She’s stocky, her legs have no shape, her hair is awful, and she should hire a stylist.

    • funcakes says:

      And she always love to tweet about how much she exercise. Why tweet your exercising when your not? So weird.

  16. tricklady says:

    She looks like she smells like Lindsay Lohan.

    • funcakes says:

      Maybe Lindsay can introduce her to some “sponsors” so she can make some real money to keep Eddie and his entourage around. She wouldn’t have to tour and fly to London to record one song.

      Eddie seems like the kid of guy who would be all for it as long as he never had to work.

  17. InvaderTak says:

    Blanche devereoux just turned over I n her grave at this caftan fail.

  18. SnarkGirl says:

    Shoes – cute. Shorts & tee – cute. Grandma’s bathrobe over the top – people of Walmart.

  19. JH says:

    She might as well be wearing a raggedy bathrobe and curlers.

    • funcakes says:

      The latest picks of her in the airport looks as though she put on her house slippers to go to the mail box.

  20. roxy750 says:

    So she is so full of herself (not that I needed to tell anyone that)..she makes an opportunity of a kids party (I’m assuming the soccer ball is for the kids)…and sluts herself out for a phony photo….really?

  21. Wonder if she had one of the 12 year olds take her bikini babe picture with her look at me pose? I bet she is the obnoxious attention seeking female at every get together. You know, the one that you cringe silently for as they make sure everyone there notices them. The one that thinks they are so much better looking than they really are. The one size fits all kimono looks hideous. How does she and Eddie spend like they do when they never work? She can’t have much, if any, money left over from 15 years ago. Maybe still has the black AmEx Dean spoke of. He said she spent money like crazy, as did her Dad, so where’s it coming from now? Daily Fail posts can’t be that lucrative.

    • doofus says:

      “I bet she is the obnoxious attention seeking female at every get together. You know, the one that you cringe silently for as they make sure everyone there notices them. The one that thinks they are so much better looking than they really are.”

      I was laughing when I read this because I was at a wedding this weekend and there was a girl there who fit this description to a T. she had a great, lean body (like Giselle) but she was SO OBVIOUSLY trying to get people to look at her. Skin-tight bright yellow dress with 6-inch platform red suede strappy heels. and her dancing antics looked like she should have been on stage at the strip club.

  22. Christin says:

    Beyond the kimono meets Daisy Dukes ensemble — Is she trying to convince us that she doesn’t arrange for a pap to show up and take her photo? She looks stone faced and a bit beefy thighed. Not her usual grinning, look at my toned pins type photos.

  23. AntiSocialButterfly says:

    Coochie cutters = Forever fail.

  24. Jen says:

    That look is pure Golden Girls meets Daisy Duke.

  25. Why? says:

    Where are people getting the idea that Leann has been quiet on twitter? Leann didn’t have a pretty quiet May. Leann has been even worst this month, going super crazy on stalking Brandi’s twitter account and tweeting about Jake and Mason, because it’s the month that Brandi and Eddie were married. Leann has been having big implosions on twitter and instagram, it’s just that the press is too busy covering more important things to even notice. Or maybe Leann is running out of money and can’t afford to pay the press to write weekly stories about her. She has also been lying lately about Eddie’s whereabouts, saying that he is on tour with her, when he really isn’t.

    Leann has also been setting up a lot of staged photo-ops lately, the staged photo-ops got very bad after Carrie was announced as the surprised performer at CMA festival.

    Brandi’s son’s birthday was not this weekend. Brandi has tweeted twice now that his birthday is on Tuesday. Leann did the same thing to Jake in April. Tweeting that his birthday was on days that it wasn’t. What is it with Leann that she always tries to make Jake and Mason’s birthdays on days that they are not? If she loves Jake and Mason like she says why can’t she accept their true birthdays? It’s like she doesn’t want to accept the true dates of their birth because than she would have to face reality that Brandi gave birth to them. It’s like she is in competition with Brandi. Like she is trying beat Brandi by celebrating Jake and Mason’s birthday first, but she has to cheat by celebrating a week before their actual birthday.

    I don’t think that there was a party. I think that after Leann took Eddie, his parents, Jake, and Mason out for steak, Leann was left all alone. We only know this because after tweeting about her steak dinner with family, Leann spent the night on twitter and instagram. I thought that she set up a staged photo-op with Mason and Jake, but instead the very next day this photo-op showed up.

  26. briargal says:

    ‘hippie chic or fashion fail’—-Super easy! No contest. EVERYTHING about Leaky is a fail. In fact ‘Failure’ is her middle name!!

  27. JudyK says:

    There’s nothing chic (hippie or otherwise) about that or the way she ever dresses.

  28. Bobbiesue says:

    Does she mean “fauxchella” in her hashtag? First off, check things before hitting publish. Second, why does a kid’s birthday party need a Coachella vibe? This woman…

    • jenn12 says:

      For the same reason she thinks it needs a mistress turned wife in a fringed, see through top and skimpy bikini in front of a bunch of tween boys? If some girl’s stepdad decided to attend her party in a Speedo, what would people think?

  29. Mayflower says:

    She’s gained weight recently and trying to hide it with long jackets and now Mrs. Roper’s mu mu. I really wish she would get rid of those ratty extensions. Her hair looks so much better shoulder length, and washed.

    I think she looks depressed.

    • Tate says:

      I saw pap pictures of her in NY last week and she looked very depressed. It can’t be easy trying to hold up the facade of a happy life and marriage while in reality you are living with a lazy moocher who is using you for your wallet.

  30. CharlotteCharlotte says:

    I was hoping there would be a post about Leann’s Maya Angelou Instagram. She posted a clip from some unaired interview with Maya heavily praising Leann. It was ridiculous. And Leann tagged it ‘she is god on a stick’ which had even her supporters calling her out for narcissism and buffoonery.

  31. Deanne says:

    Someone needs to inform LeAnn that dry shampoo is NOT an alternative to regular bathing and using real shampoo. Her hair is literally matted at the back of her head. Also, the level of iinappropriateness of that getup she wore for Mason’s birthday party is off the charts, even for her. I wonder what the back of it looked like. Probably shoved up her crack like all of the other ones she wears. How nice for the boys. Seriosly, Eddie must ignore her, because she is obviously attention starved beyond belief, if she has to sink to the level of parading around in front of pre-teens, dressed like that. She is so desperate to be the ” hot Mom”. Two huge problems, she’s not hot and she’s not a Mom.

    • tricklady says:

      What a weirdo! I have a son (he is now 17) and I’m not sure what you other moms think but
      I always tried to be aware around my sons friends as to what I was wearing. Leaky thinks she is recreating “Stacy’s Mom Has Got it Going on” And CLEARLY…….. she has nothing going on.

      • Deanne says:

        But you aren’t an attention starved has been, with a bad case of second wife (lots of second wives are sane and secure) syndrome either. Her fanbase is small and she wants so badly to be seen as a “Stacey’s Mom” sex symbol, just like you said. I guess she figures pre-teen boys, with their raging hormones are a sure bet. They probably either felt uncomfortable or didn’t notice. After all, her body pretty much resembles theirs, except for the bolt-ons with the canyon in between.

      • jenn12 says:

        I have girls, and not only is their dad careful around their friends, but so am I. I can’t imagine needing to be the cool adult in a crowd of KIDS. I don’t care if she doesn’t wash her hair ever again, but she needs to be appropriate in front of children. I guess if you are willing to make out in front of children, grope the kids’ dad in front of the children and their friends, wear revealing clothing to their parties and games, and have them dump ice water over you when you’re wearing a tiny, skimpy tank top, then you don’t really get boundaries. And neither does their dad.

    • Christin says:

      This is the person who claims to have used dry shampoo (aerosol, no less) while on an airplane. I am still trying to figure that one out.

      Both her dressing and grooming habits are, um, interesting.

      • Deanne says:

        I’ve always said she looks unwashed to the point of being dirty. She’s mentioned dry shampoo a number of times. Someone should let her know that it comes in various non aerosol forms and that it isn’t meant to replace regular shampoo completely. Her grooming and dressings habits are extremely compatible with each other. That isn’t good.
