Just when we were getting scared… she totally redeems herself!

It may not be her Championship shoot (OR HER LINGERIE SHOOT!!!), but Michelle McCool’s newest photo session on dotcom is nothing to get mad about! Her last set of pictures did finally grow on me, but it still wasn’t her best. She definitely stepped it up with these pictures though. I’m not a fashion guru, but even I can tell homegirl’s been working on her poses.

Let’s dig in with the first set, shall we? We shall! At first glance and possibly the first thing to jump out is her hair! I have a feeling these pictures are from before she took out the extensions, but it’s okay to pretend she put them back in. We can dream, darn it! After the hair… things get a little bit funky! That outfit is so fun and right up Michele’s alley with her sense of style. Maybe she’s a bit of a gambler because she’s been seen wearing another top that has playing cards on it. The black shorts are a nice touch and the boots top the outfit off quite well!

Now for the not so good points… Lately, the guys working on the ladies’ pictures have been going a little bit overboard with the photoshopping. Guys, seriously, knock it off. These girls are gorgeous without it, so unless someone has a mega zit on her face, leave ‘em alone! To be completely honest, these pictures hardly look like Michelle. The lighting or the colors in the pictures aren’t really working. She looks washed out and two dimensional. Perhaps we’ve seen what it would look like to have Michelle as a cardboard cut out!

Moving on to the second set. Work it, girl! She’s got the wonky leg thing going on again. I don’t know the exact name for it… I just know from watching America’s Next Top Model that it’s a popular pose amongst the high fashion industry. If Tyra likes it, it must be fierce! Insert a z snap here.

Her hair looks great pulled back in the loose pony. I definitely prefer that to the down look. While the first outfit is fun and flavorful, this one is very classy and dignified. It goes much better with the earrings, hairstyle and footwear of choice. It also makes her pop against the background. When’s the last time we got Michelle in front of something other than a black or white backdrop? The garage door, the set box and cement floor give this a grungy feel, not something we get to see all the time. Michelle can be versatile and really “wow” us when she wants to. She mixes and matches, bringing out different sides of personality and taste in fashion. For example, the dress does look elegant but then you reach the top and see the black and gray studded hem which brings together the grungy feel mentioned previously.

Very good, Michelle! We applaud you and look forward to seeing more!

Final Grade: B+ That last set really has us wanting seconds!
