Do-Me Meter: Mariah Time Travels to 1990

The diva singer should go back to basics when it comes to her wardrobe

Did we jump into a DeLorean and fly back to 1990? Mariah Carey stepped out after dinner at Mr. Chow's in Bev Hills looking like she stepped off the cover of her first album. Love the curly hair au naturel and the simplicity of Mar's dress—no sequined centipedes, such a welcome change. This fashion throwback to Carey's beginning days in the Biz is eons more apt for a 39-year-old woman who's famous for being fond of superskanky hoochie-mama wear. 

This is how Mariah should always do cleavage: in a classic li'l black dress, not squeezing her overgrown lovelies into Hello Kitty schoolgirl outfits and desperate-for-attention couture. Funny enough, when M.C. dresses her age, she ends up looking a whole lot younger. In fact, she almost looks age appropriate to the babe-hub. Now, if M.C. could only do something about that horrendous stuck-in-teenyland music of hers.
