Don't know if this has been posted yet but I was looking through an old InStyle magazine from Sept 2003 and there's a picture of Vanessa at BCBG Max Azria, she's wearing a light gray herringbone vest, w/ midriff showing, a brown tilted fedora and jeans with the pointy shoes. She's standing with her hands on her hips and not really smiling. :?
It also says this: "Taking in her second show of the day, Vanessa Carlton was feeling the fashion-world peer pressure. "It's very stressful. I don't know how other people can get different outfits together for every show," she said. "It's just not going to happen for me. I ended up wearing a shirt that I slept in."
And I found this tidbit on the ExtraTV site: And few beauties could resist ribbing TV's Charlie about not being picked on the “Bachelorette!” Vanessa Carlton said to him, "Now you can score any chick you want!”
