Bloomers wrote:"Me and my sister" instead of "My sister and I" - usually I don't say anything, but Ali has now become a televison hostess, and as hostess has to be more conscious than this of how she speaks. While it is true that we speak much more informly than we write, that mistake is glaring regardless of when it is used.

"Me" is an object pronoun and is never used as the subject of a sentence. The trick is to take away the other person plus the "and". The sentence then becomes Me visiting the office the OK office in NY.
Also, the other person is always listed first. My sister and I are visiting the office OK office in NY. That is just always correct regardless of the situation.

Hey, I'm the first one to skewer someone for bad grammar and lord knows Ali has made her fair share of errors, but I'm leaning towards giving her a pass on this one. The way the phrase is written, couldn't it be interpreted as the clause of the (implied full) sentence "This is a picture of me and my sister at the...", in which case it would be grammatically correct (other than inverting it to "my sister and me")?

Bloomers, I'll defer to your opinion as the English teacher. :study:

I'm sorry, but that outfit is just bad. That skirt makes her hips look so big.

ummm, just, no.

I'm no fashion expert, but the styling, the pieces that were chosen - just doesn't look right, JMHO.

IMO it looks even less flattering from the back. http://www.celebrityphoto.com/scripts/search/event-search.pl?celebrity=Ali%20Fedotowsky&grid=40&keyword=2012%20Us%20Weekly%27s%20Hot%20Hollywood%20Style%20Issue%20Event&search_type=headline&year= (sorry pics are so small).

It looks like she's wearing a set of drapes around her waist. I don't think it flatters her at all.

I agree that Melissa looks very uncomfortable in the picture! :Nod: I don't like the skirt either.
