Ann CurryI just caught the cover of the September Ladies' Home Journal, featuring new Today show host Ann Curry.

She looks AMAZING!

I love everything about Ann in this photo, from her hair and makeup to her clothing and accessories.

And I'll be honest.

I'm hoping she takes a look at this cover and resolves to apply it to her own real-life style.

Because the truth is that Ann has a long history of looking a little ...

... frazzled.

Agree or disagree?

I say this as an Ann Curry watcher and fan from way back.

When I was a young television anchor, I related to Ann reading the headlines on Today for all those years, and I based a lot of my style decisions on what she was wearing. I'd get a chuckle out of her many "bad hair days." We all have those, particularly those of us who were working for $17,500 a year and had no clothing or makeup allowance at the number-three rated station in Columbia, South Carolina!

AHEM.

This was all fine and good back in those days, but now Ann's the HOST of the Today show, and as much as I love her, the girl needs a makeover, STAT. When I catch her on the show, she is STILL looking frumpy and frazzled. That's one thing when you're a news reader, but when you're a host, it's another matter altogether.

And I'm assuming that she can now afford a stylist who can help her figure out what's what.

Perhaps the stylist from this photo shoot is available? Take a lesson from this magazine cover, Ann, and embrace your femininity and the colors yellow and orange. You looked mah-velous, and I want to see it continue!

What do you think of Ann's magazine cover?
