i am jennifer garner

i love superheroes. i love it more when these superheroes are your parents. just imagine if your mum is storm from the x-men, there will be no need to wait till winter for snow. if dad was the incredible hulk, you would never be bullied ever again, i can't say much about the state of domestic property damage though. well, there are a few lucky children whose mums are superheroes, or at least they play one.

Jennifer Garner

meet supermum, jennifer garner! jennifer anne affleck, better known as jennifer garner, gained recognition on television for her performance as cia agent sydney bristow in the thriller drama series alias, which aired on abc for five seasons from 2001 to 2006. for her work on the series, garner won a golden globe and a screen actors guild award.

while working on alias, she gained minor roles in hit movies such as pearl harbor (2001) and catch me if you can (2002). since then, garner has appeared in supporting as well as lead roles on the big screen in projects including daredevil (2003), 13 going on 30 (2004), elektra (2005), a spin-off of daredevil, and juno (2007).

garner has been married to actor and director ben affleck since 2005. the couple have three children, two daughters and a son.

1) jennifer garner as superhero

hot, hot, hot! there's something very attractive about athletic physiques. so yes, if one wants to remain fashionable, that sit-up that you have been evading needs to be done, NOW!

2) jennifer garner as superstar

on the red carpet, jennifer garner seems to favour the traditional vintage gowns and simple designs. she usually keeps to a single colour and her dress is often form-fitting. still, she sparkles with every single outfit she dons.

3) jennifer garner as supermum

after poring through hundreds of pictures of jennifer garner as mum, one has the the impression that her outfits were put together in ten minutes, grab the children and then out the house we go. there were a couple of pictures that mum was less fashionable than the children. guess that when it's time to spend time with the children, fashion is not on top of the list. the children are.

fash'on... BAM!

freaky fashion - the capes

so yesterday, i shared with you about my experiences at a halloween event. so after we talked about where to go, let's talk about what to wear. in fact, for the whole of today, i'm going to focus on what you can wear to a halloween event if you plan to go in costume.

for those of you who are regular readers of the online edition, you know there are three posts a day so do come back later in the day (and night) to check out the other two types of outfits that you can don during halloween.

by far, the capes / robes are the easiest of any halloween outfits. before i flood this post with images, a little more on capes. a cape is any sleeveless outer garment, such as a poncho, but usually it is a long garment that covers only the back half of the wearer, fastening around the neck.

in addition, capes (robes) gives a sense of mystery, that there is something lurking underneath. of course, if you wear a black cape and you open it up, the association with bats (or batman) is almost immediate and we have all heard of stories of how bats drink blood or how bats are actually vampires, hence enhancing the whole 'halloween' effect.

from a fully fashion point of view, it is probably the easiest of all costumes. you can put it on within seconds, if you have a body to die for, then your halloween costume (which requires minimal time to put) can be this...
