Simpson Revolution!

• Well the new's just in...Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are now officially married and expecting. Wow. This is quite the drastic turn of events considering that just a couple of years ago it was Jessica Simpson living in wedded bliss and Ashlee was just "Jessica's sister" who acts/sings/dances/whatever Papa Joe Simpson tells her to do. The tables have turned and now Jessica is alone and lonely (Tony Romo dumped her), and little sis Ashlee is going all domestic. In case it's not obvious, I prefer Ashee to Jessica...anyday. Anyway, I'm gonna stop ranting about how Ashlee's superiority and just talk about the clothes.

• Ashlee Simpson is the definition of the term "metamorphosis." Why, I remember just a few years ago she played the sassy but kind-hearted Cecilia on 7th Heaven. Now, she's all rock & roll and black nail polish. To be fair, I should mention that during her MTV reality show The Ashlee Simpson Show she revealed that her darker, more mysterious side is truer to her personality. She immediately dyed her hair black, and her nails, as well. Kudos. I definitely prefer the more down-to-earth personality that she has been able to embrace thanks to her new look and style. This initial "dying of the hair" ritual was just the first of many ploys to morph her look and face. She's been platinum blonde, back to black, bronde, and now redhead, had a nose job, a new chin. Throughout all of these drastic changes, she's remained chic and stylish. Rock on.

Check out Ashlee before the plastic surgery, and after

Here she is rocking the bronde hair and a BCBG dress at the 2007 VMA's.

For the 2008 Kids' Choice Awards, she managed to look very sophisticated (almost too sophisticated for a kids' event), in a strapless Alexander McQueen dress, bright orange wedges, and Chanel accesories.

Now for classic Ashlee Simpson... sweatshirt with the hood UP, skinny jeans, punk-looking shoes, eyeliner, and an oversized bag. I like. Here she is in True Religion jeans, and a COAT...in LA!!! Oh the lengths people will go to look cute these days.

And finally...the hair transformation. I've already mentioned that Ashlee dyed her hair from blonde to jet black on her MTV show, but then she drastically dyed it to platinum blonde.

Then to bronde...

Then to a brownish reddish...

One of these days, all of her hair will fall out due to sheer frustration.
