Last week we pointed out a feature in Marie Claire magazine in which CNBC anchor Becky Quick posed as a “Fashion Expert” telling a twenty-something bond trading girl how to dress for Wall Street.
We couldn’t help but notice that it seems Becky offers a veiled insult at one of her fellow CNBC anchors when she says: “Don’t [wear] bright colors, you’ll stand out at the stock exchange and not in a good way.”
After the jump, check out who at CNBC stands out in that way.
ROFL!
Too hilarious
i’ll take erin over the beckster any day.
ab-
I agree.
She’s on now.
-mrp
Agreed, She is cute. However I wonder how long it takes her to get to the trading floor from The Shire… Look at her next to Mark.
Trish Regan and Melissa Francis often wear bright yellow, pink or blue, but Becky probably hates Erin most of all.
clothes by Crayola
“… The Shire” – frickin’ classic!
i wish i could punch EB in the face…repeatedly.
I cant decide – ill take both
Quickster has the UN-sexiest voice possible.
Bugs please keep your fetishes to yourself
Erin has class. The pastels have to go, but Erin has class.
I think I’ve been on http://www.beckyquick.com too many effing times but that one pic at her desk is the sh|t.

switching teams?
Becky better watch her backside. At the very least, Erin will probably key her car…or break into Becky’s place and leave her an upper-decker.
-BeckyBootFan
except that becky was talking about people who actually work on the floor (who shouldn’t stand out) and not people who report from the floor (who most certainly should). nice analysis, carney.
speaking of which, anyone ever seen becky’s backside?
hubba hubba.
9:16 still has the best comment so far haha
Also, beckybootfan, upper decker, thats classic
The Shire? me no understand
Becky quick is gunga
Burnett bulges my bracket!
Where’s the most famous dress of all (granted it wasn’t worn on the floor). I want a giraffe pic!
I agree with 9:50. Journalists working on the exchange should stand out. Actual employees shouldn’t.
By the way, Becky wears her share of bright colors herself. Hot pinks, oranges, reds. But she too is a journalist, and doesn’t work on Wall Street, she reports about it.
And the picture of her in Marie Claire — she’s sporting a really drab suit with bad pockets. Many successful women on Wall Street wear fashionable clothes including bright colors as part of their outfit. It’s usually the junior banking types that wear the drab uniforms like the one Becky is wearing.
@9:55 Tricksy hobbittses
Erin was hotter at 19 years old playing field hockey.
Becky is cute but going to get fat soon.
Lindsay beats them both. Where’d that hottie go?
What is SAC’s dress code?
@10:09: lindsay got arrested.
where have you been ?
@10:02 Gunga Din indeed! Good call my friend.
I’m buying low on jarvis and brennan.
If I were becky I’d lookout in the ladies room for the swirlie that is surely coming.
I too am levered to the gills long Jarvis and Brennan.
Trish Regan would be the most fun in bed.
Bugs,
Is your bed located on a softball field? She’s a beast!
No way, Trish could be a real fashion model. She’s exquisite.
The CNBC cameras must add a few lbs., because Trish most definitely has a great body (which the regular NBC cameras pick up).

Dude you’re all way off,aussie (?) girl Amanda Drury is definitely hotter than Erin

Anyone get a look at that CARMEN WONG ULRICH…OH BABY…
Amanda Drury looks like the fucking joker! Erin is gala-worthy. She’s pristine, and carries a certain elegance not seen on the others.
Bad news for the Margaret Brennan fans up in her(r)e:

all solidly out of everyone here’s league.

@bugs – well there goes 1/2′s chance!
I like Becky Quick as a reporter. Occasionally her smile seems a little forced.
I’m not on the same wavelength as the people crazy about Erin Burnett. There is something elegant about her, true, but often she says some dumb things. Like the problems of the regional banks seemed worse because they were based on soured mortgages and the problems of the Wall Street banks were related to complex derivatives. Teaming her up with Mark Haines makes it seem like a father – daughter show. They are also very mismatched visually.
Wow. What is with Brennan’s FUPA? Preggers or Haagen-Dazs?

@ Schmooze: The rack leads me to favor column A.
Amanda Drury is smarter and much more professional than Erin Burnett.
Erin Burnett doesn’t is so unprofessional, spends half of the time trying to be the center of attention and the other half laughing and making jokes!!
You guys (?) must have missed the Beckster with boots showing some leg…almost took me back to the wonderful mini skirt days…nice!

You forgot to define was a “bad way” is…..Bess. Erin Burnett could wear a potato sack and win a beauty contest. Something Erin has that many of the women at CNBC don’t have is knowledge….a brain. There will always be someone to criticize you, no matter what. I can tell most of your viewers here Bess, don’t give much of a damn about the dress of the person mentioned in the magazine as a fashion expert. Nuff said.
