Top Model: Doutzen Kroes



Doutzen Kroes (I can't even come close to pronouncing that right) is a Victoria Secret model and for good reason: She is beautiful.  Her body is the perfect mix of skinny and curvy plus she has a drop dead gorgeous face.  Lucky.

Fashion Flashback: Kate Beckinsale @ 2006 Golden Globes

 

This is seriously one of my favorite award show looks of all time.  I l-o-v-e the vibrant green earring and the vintage Dior dress is to die for! Simply stunning.

Stylish Duo: JT & JB



JT and his lady love Jessica Biel look so incredibly stylish wandering the streets of Milan.  I am in love with Jess' leopard scarf (especially if it's the Louis Vuitton one I want).  I appreciate how they are just wearing basics but use accessories to make their outfits fresh and fun!

Gossip Girl: Blair Waldorf

  

OMG I just love Blair's style, especially in the past two episodes of Gossip Girl.  The one shoulder chartreuse dress that she wore during her scandalous party with the Lord and Chuck was divine especially with the jewel detailed headband.  This past Monday I was obsessed with her little white caplet with the black rosette collar...I mean could a school uniform look anymore chic? I think not. XOXO

Cutest Ice Cream Truck Ever

 

So I was walking through Soho after a massage at Haven and saw the cutest ice cream truck selling all natural ice cream.  They had a tons of yummy flavors and I can't wait to go back and try one when I am hungry!  On top of that I loved the name because it reminds me of one of my besties :)

Van Leeuwen Artisan Ice Cream is sold at 3 locations in NYC: Soho @ Greene & Prince, University b/w 11th & 12th, and Broadway b/w 74th & 76th

Favorites: Mascara

  

One of my beauty esstentials is mascara.  I have probably tried every formula under the sun and always come back to my favorites.  My two all time favorites are YSL's Faux Lashes and MAC Plush Lash and I often  keep Chanel Inimitable and Prescriptives Lash Envy in rotation.  I always find that it works best to layer mascaras in order to get the perfect volume/curling/length ratio.

Birds of a Feather

 

So obviously I want everything Nicole Richie wears and I was quite happy to find an exact replica of her little feather headband at Urban Outfitters for $16! I think it will be perfect with Fall's color palette and some tousled waves.

Pink Dream: Kate Beckinsale



Not many girls could get away with this pink Prada number...But on Kate Beckinsale it looks just like a pink dream.  The details of color on this gown are truely striking and the giant diamond on Kate's finger brings the fantasy vibe of the look.  Need it. Want it. Love it.

Best Dressed at the Emmys


I'll admit that I didn't even watch the Emmys due to the fact that I was coming back from a fabulous trip to Dallas.  But I did tape E!'s Fashion Police which showcases the best and worst dressed on the red carpet which is all I really care about anyways.  I thought Law and Order's Mariska Hargitay looked fab in a canary yellow Carolina Herrera, Samantha Who?'s Chirstina Applegate was stunning in Reem Acra, and Debra Messing and Evangeline Lily both rocked their anything but basic frocks (Monique Lhullier and Elie Saab respectively).

The Hills Sightings: LC and Whitney


I've had two sightings of the girls from The Hills in the past 4 days!  I first saw Whitney Port on Saturday at 56th and Lexington on my way to Bloomingdales.  She was with her new bf and seemed really happy!  Then today I saw LC like 5 times at the Coterie Trade Show in NYC.  She was in the booth for her line, the Lauren Conrad Collection.  She seemed pretty nice and was taking pictures with people.  Celeb sightings (whether A or Z-listers) make my days!!!

Guess Who I Just Saw....



RACHEL ZOE!!!! OMG I am still so excited about it...I was going to the Rita Hazan Salon on 56th and 5th in NYC and was waiting to cross the street.  A black Yukon pulled up with the windows down and Mrs. Zoe was literally inches in front of me! I wanted to throw my resume in her car and ask her to give me a job but I thought that'd be a little intense.  Hopefully I'll meet her for reals someday soon...

Top Model: Hilary Rhoda


The face of Estee Lauder, Hilary Rhoda, is known for her striking brows and ice blue eyes.  She was ranked number 12 on Forbes highest ranking super model list in 2007 and was in campaigns for Balenciaga, Dolce and Gabanna, Abercrombie, Gucci, and Valentino to name a few.  Often compared to Brooke Sheilds, Rhoda definitely has a long career ahead of her.

My Fav Fashionista: Fashion Week Style



Nicole Richie has been seen all over NYC this past week but most importantly front row at multiple shows in the Bryant Park tents.  My fav girl donned a little black silk jumper at Proenza Schouler, a blue and black striped number at DKNY's 20th runway show, and a hippy headband and leather mini at Marc Jacobs.  All looks are fab but my fav is the MJ look.  Hopefully we'll see Ms. Richie at a few more shows before Fashion Week is over!


Best Show Ever: The Rachel Zoe Project



"I DIE"..."Bananas"..."Shut It Down"...I am obsessed with Bravo's The Rachel Zoe Project which premiered last night.  So obsessed and in love that I have already watched it 2 and a half times!  I thought that Rachel was really charming and I of course wanted everything in her studio.  I can't wait until next Tuesday!

Harlow=Too Cute

  

Baby Harlow looks so adorable in these recent pics with mommy Nicole Richie.  The cute duo was seen walking around NYC each with a Starbucks in hand.  Love Nicole's carefree hippy style and Harlow's purple romper!

Queen B: Fashion Week Style


My favorite Gossip Girl Leighton Meester has been seen all over fashion week and is continuing to prove why she is the Queen B.  She looked pretty in pink at the Julie Haus show and looked absolutely divine in yellow at Diane Von Furstenberg on Sunday.  Until next time...xoxo

Update:  Added the center pic of Leighton at Phillip Lim's show

Best Dressed at VMAs


Even though I am biased and think that B. Spears killed it (best dressed in my book), there are two other ladies that stepped it up a notch on the red carpet.  I was disappointed with most people but Lauren Conrad and Bar Rafaeli looked amazing.  LC was wearing a Pogah Couture hand painted design while Bar rocked a Hurley dress and Badgley Mischka jewelry.  Too bad the over all show was a disappointment...

Britney Part 2

  

Hot hot hot.  I love the second dress even more than the first (but both looked amazing!).  Brit rocked another Versace dress to pick up her other 2 VMAs for a total of 3 on Sunday night.  I'm so excited for her and can't wait for her to make a total comeback (new cd, tour, performances, etc).  She deserves it!

It's Official...She's Back (for reals)!!!



OMG. I love B Spears. Never stopped, never will.  Wearing a silver Versace dress, Brit showed us what we've been missing at the 2008 VMAs.  Heart her!

Celeb Style of the Day: Victoria Beckham

"Easy V doesn't come for free, she's a real lady"- Spice Girls 'Wannabe'

There is only one word to describe Victoria Beckham's style and that word pays homage to her Spice Girls alter ego: Posh.  VB is always dressed to the nines in form fitting, structured shapes and solid colors.  I love that no matter how over the top her look is, Victoria always owns her style with sophistication and ease.
