...we'll give her an A for effort!

Before you click after the jump to leave a nasty comment about her, let's forget for one second that it's Tila Tequila and she's wearing patent leather gloves. The ruffled white frock is adorable, and the reality starlet's hair and makeup look pretty darn good, so we're willing to overlook the Paris Hilton-esque fingerless gloves and blah tattoos, but just this once.

Tila was at Barnes & Noble in NYC yesterday afternoon for the book signing of her first literary masterpiece, "Hooking Up with Tila Tequila: A Guide to Love, Fame, Happiness, Success, and Being the Life of the Party." Good times!
