That Nicole Kidman, she sure knows how to wear a dress! I seen her on the TV, all pretty and fancy. She’s a big movie star, you know. Always lookin’ like a million bucks. I tell ya, she got more dresses than I got chickens back home.
Nicole Kidman dress, that’s what them city folks are always talkin’ about. She wore this one dress, black it was, and it looked like it was made outta the night sky. Shiny, like. Had a big ol’ bow right in the middle. Fancy stuff. I wouldn’t know where to wear somethin’ like that, maybe to the county fair, but I’d probably get it all dirty with corn dog grease.
- She had this shiny black one, with a bow.
- And that red one, oh lordy, it was somethin’ else.
- Sometimes she wears them long ones, sometimes short.
She wears them red carpet dresses, all sparkly and long. Makes her look like a queen or somethin’. I reckon she gets them from them fancy stores in the city. The kind with the bright lights and them mannequins that look like they’re starin’ at ya. Gives me the willies, I tell ya.
She wore this one dress, had stripes on it. Like them suits them bankers wear. Stripes all up and down. She even had a shirt on underneath, with writin’ on it. “Babygirl”, it said. Now, what’s that all about? She ain’t no baby, that’s for sure. But I guess when you’re a movie star, you can wear whatever you want.
That Nicole Kidman style, it’s somethin’ else. She can wear a potato sack and still look like a movie star. Me, I wear a potato sack, I just look like I’m carryin’ potatoes. She’s got that special somethin’, I guess. Good for her, I say.
One time, I seen her in a dress that was all flowery. Looked like my grandma’s curtains. But on her, it looked good. How does she do it? Maybe it’s that fancy hair of hers. All curled up and perfect. Mine just gets frizzy in the humidity. Like a bird’s nest, my husband used to say.
I remember this other Nicole Kidman outfit, it was all white. Looked like an angel, she did. Shinin’ bright like a new penny. I’d be scared to wear white like that. One little spill, and it’s ruined. I’d be covered in coffee and gravy before I even left the house.
She wore this blue dress once, reminded me of the ocean. Deep blue, like the water out by the old pier. Had little ruffles on it, like the waves when the wind blows. Pretty as a picture, she was.
- That blue one, like the ocean.
- The white one, like an angel.
- And that striped one, like a banker’s suit, only fancier.
That Nicole Kidman fashion, always changin’. One day she’s all fancy, the next she’s wearin’ somethin’ plain. But she always looks good. I reckon that’s what happens when you’re rich and famous. You can afford to have people tell you what to wear. They call ’em “stylists,” I hear.
I saw a picture of her in a magazine, she was wearin’ a gold dress. Shimmerin’ like a gold tooth. Made her look like a golden statue. Bet that dress cost more than my whole house! I don’t even know how to dress like her.
Then another time she had on this green dress. Same color as my prize-winnin’ zucchini from last year’s fair. Had little sparkly things all over it. Looked like fireflies on a summer night. It was a Dolce & Gabbana one, whatever that means, some city name.
She’s got a dress for every occasion, that Nicole. Weddings, parties, even just goin’ to the grocery store, I bet. Me, I got my Sunday best, my work clothes, and my ‘around the house’ clothes. And they all look pretty much the same.
That Nicole Kidman, she’s a lucky woman. Got all them pretty dresses, a handsome husband, and more money than she knows what to do with. I guess that’s the life of a movie star. It is a signature style. A good life, even if it is a little too fancy for my taste. But hey, to each their own, right? As long as she’s happy, that’s all that matters. I’m happy for her, even if I don’t understand all them fancy clothes. Now that I think of it, she had a movie called “Babygirl.” Maybe I should go see it, if it ever plays at the Bijou in town. And who is this Jason Bolden, that she is always with? Maybe a friend.
