Fresh Face: Skin Care

images

CellCeuticals Skin Care was formulated by plastic surgeon Dr. Garth Fisher — who does the surgeries for Extreme Makeover.

I am in love with how Dr. Fisher’s  products have changed my skin.

Lately my friends have been commenting on how smooth my complexion is, and asking what I have been doing!

Even with the stress from school and  traveling, my skin has remained calm and near flawless. I owe it all to Cell Ceuticals Skin Care products for literally saving my skin.

What skin care products have you been successful with?

Sex and the City 2!!

sex-and-the-city-girls-flow

The date for the much anticipated  “Sex and the City 2” sequel has been set for May 28,2010.  According to Variety magazine Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis will all return.

Details surrounding the movie have not been confirmed yet, although we do know that a baby is out of character for Carrie and Mr. Big. Back in November Sarah Jessica Parker told MTV News’ Josh Horowitz, “Motherhood doesn’t seem as if that’s going to be a choice she’ll make. It feels a little bit manipulative to toss that into the mix because she seems so pointed in a different direction.”
What do you think should be the next step for the fabulous foursome?

Kim’s K-ravings: The New Skinny Jean

irissinger_2047_304591236

For me jeans can be addicting,  there are always new ones that are hot and I always want them.

The pair that caught my eye recently is the new Current Elliot  Skinny Jean in Loved Destroyed as seen on Kim Kardashian, Katie Holmes, Vanessa Hudgens, Kate Beckinsale and many other celebrities. The trend  takes the classic distressed jean look and mixes it with the skinny jean. This look is a more updated version of the two.

The jean is great! They are light weight, stretch and have great pockets. Perfect for dressing up or  down. They also come in a white jean color. The only problem is that they run large, so size down.

Otherwise, they are near perfect! Current Elliot jeans will be hot for spring, so go buy your pair now!

You can find them on one of my favorites, Singer22.com.

Kim K’s Jiggle Is Out!

 

425adkimkardashiancmplx032609

All hail Kim Kardashian!! 

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star recently went through what most celebs would consider a nightmare.  ”So what: I have a little cellulite. What curvy girl doesn’t!?” Kim, writes on her blog in response to the untouched photo of her for Complex magazine that was accidentally released on the Internet.

By the time the magazine could fix the mistake it was to late. The photo had already been blasted all through cyberspace.  

Kim, who loves her curves and rarely misses the chance to show them off was unfazed by the comments from the  press. In true Kardashian spirit, she turned this sour situation into a career booster.

I admire that she didn’t go the Beyonce route (reassuring everyone that she has a 19 inch waist, ahem) and instead refused to give the media anything negative to say. We know she is gorgeous and she has never denied us the thrill of seeing her cellulite. “My jiggle is out for the world to see.” Kim said,  on season one of Keeping Up With Kardashians. 

 ”How many people do you think are photoshopped? It happens all the time!” said Kardashian, “I’m proud of my body and my curves and this picture coming out is probably helpful for everyone to see that just because I am on the cover of a magazine doesn’t mean I’m perfect.” 

I Love her!

Girls Next Door Say Goodbye

girls-next-door

It is the end of an era. The Girls Next Door finale was Sunday night and Holly, Kendra, Bridget and I all shared a tearful evening of goodbyes. After five years, the Girls Next Door are moving on. Hef gave his blessing to the girls as they packed up to start their lives outside the gates of the Playboy mansion. We have watched Bridget, Holly and Kendra as they have grown up, traveled the world, thrown crazy parties, and all the shenanigans in between. I know I will miss them!

 Where did the Girls Next Door move?

Head girlfriend of Hugh Hefner for seven years, Holly Madison has finally moved on. She continues to work for Playboy magazine and is on the search for her soul mate. Rumors of Holly dating magician Chris Angel surfaced in August 2008, but she decided to come clean with Hef before going public with their relationship. The relationship ended after four short months together. What is next for her? I guess we will see!

No Doubt Is Back

 f6579be9-d9ea-490d-981c-9c05da1197d9

There is No Doubt about it-  the cali ska-punk group is back and ready to rock out. After more than five years apart the band has reunited for the first time and will be shaking stages across North America. What is unusual about this tour? Unlike most bands they are not touring to promote a new album. Instead they are turning to the fans for inspiration for the new album that will be recorded early next year. “The whole reason for going on this tour was to have fun, try on all our favorite songs again and to get inspired to make new music,” Stefani writes on the band’s website.  

During the hiatus lead singer Gwen Stefani married smokin’ hot Bush front man Gavin Rossdale, became a mother to sons Kingston and Zuma, started clothing and  fragrance line L.A.M.B, and released two hit albums as a solo artist. Stefani writes on the bands website saying, “It feels good to be all together again.” 

The bands aggressive campaign “Seven Days of No Doubt” video cast launches this weekend. The widget will be premiering exclusive videos straight from the band each day and will offer a chance to win the V.I.P treatment at concerts and one of a kind memorabilia. 

Paramore will join No Doubt to open the tour, though The Sounds, Janelle Monáe and Bedouin Soundclash will also play some dates. Check out www.nodoubt.com for more information.

The Oscars: Best Dressed

The stars came out Sunday night to the 81st Annual Academy Awards in Los Angeles. 

The interviews, evening gowns, and tearful acceptance speeches are why I love to watch. The highlight for me is ALWAYS the fashion on the red carpet and this year was more beautiful than ever.  Gold and cream gowns, Jewel tones and dresses fit for a fairy tale princess filled the Kodak theater. 

My Favorite Flaunts:

1. Penelope Cruz

Winner: Best Actress in a Supporting Role:  Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

1931398721_6316515859

Penelope wore a vintage Balmain Haute Couture dress. I love whenever vintage gowns are worn on the red carpet. She is one of  my favorite actresses and she is perfect in this dress. The delicate lace and chiffon detail on this dress seems dreamlike. Simply Stunning. I wonder how many brides will copy this look? 

2. Sarah Jessica Parker

1927576296_36026088312gallery_main-sarahjessicaparker-2009-oscars-academy-awards-red-carpet-photos-02232009-18

 The fashion goddess wore a “barely mint” Dior Haute Couture gown. She followed the Disney princess theme of the evening and had her prince right beside her.  SJP looks like a sea foam cloud of perfection! The fashionista  accessorized with Fred Leighton jewels. Sarah joined Daniel Craig to present Oscars to Best Art Direction and Costume Design. So appropriate. 

3.  Anne Hathaway

Miss Hathaway looked like a million bucks in this gorgeous silver Armani Prive  gown, drenched in Swarovski crystals. She glided down the carpet in custom Casadei 1616 heels and wore a red-berry lip to complete the look. The 26-year-old was nominated for Best Actress for her role in Rachel Getting Married. Anne is a true testimony of what good breaking up with your Italian, con-artist/ fiance can do to a girl. She came out on top and better than ever. 

4. Kate Winslet

Winner: Best Actress in a Leading Role:  Kate WinsletThe Reader.

2059513087_8435292198

She wore a gun metal dress by Yves Saint Laurent. I think this was the best she has ever looked. The color of  was amazing and I loved the one shoulder/sweetheart neckline. The cut was perfect and flattered her figure.

5. Natalie Portman

1742666610_742523029

She wore a dark-pink strapless Rodarte dress with jewel beading on the bust. The dress, the makeup, and the hair was perfection. She absolutely glowed.

7. Miley Cyrus

Miley with her mom.

Miley with her mom.

Aside from looking like Queen Frostine from Candyland , Miley pulled off this beautiful, dangerously embellished Zuhair Murad gown. She is often criticzed for dressing matronly on the red carpet, but this dress is perfect for her. The crystal beading, cincehd waist and tiered petals is stunning. I am finally a Miley fan!

8. Marisa Tomei

1916244717_52728403

She has been known to make some pretty kooky wardrobe choices on the red carpet. Luckily this time she left the pirate suit and treasure at home and traded for this silver-gray Versace Atelier gown with accordion pleats.  She was a breath taking!

Rhianna’s Disturbing Photograph

 

rihannabeaten

 

Celebrity gossip site TMZ.com shows a close-up photograph of  Rihanna’s bruised face covered with scratches  and suffering a swollen  lip.

The Los Angeles Police Department is investigating how the picture of Rihanna following her domestic dispute with Chris Brown made it’s way to the internet. 

“The photograph has the appearance of one taken during an official domestic violence investigation. The Los Angeles Police Department takes seriously its duty to maintain the confidentiality of victims of domestic violence,” the LAPD said in a statement Thursday. “A violation of this type is considered serious misconduct, with penalties up to and including termination.”

Must See Reality TV

AHHH! There are so many fantastic shows premiering I can hardly contain myself! I rarely have time to watch TV and when I do it is either E! or CNN, but I am going to clear my schedule for these! Here are the shows that I will be obsessed with:

1. T.I’s Road Redemption begins Tuesday (tonight!!), February 10 @ 9pm ET/PT on MTV.

45 days and counting until Grammy- winning superstar T.I. will face up to 30 years in jail for his arrest stemming from weapons charges. However a deal was worked out between his lawyers and the federal governent, if he completes 1000 hours of community service during this year ending this March his jail time will be reduced.
T.I’s Road To Redemption: 45 Days To Go will follow T.I. as he attempts to change himself and the lives of troubled teens across the country. The show will give a sneek peek at his most private moments including the birth of his sixth child, the release of his sixth album “Paper Trail,” and the drama that leads up to his sentence.
T.I. is one of my favorite rappers and I can not wait to watch!  Fun Fact: Pharrell Williams once called T.I.
” the Jay-Z of the South.” That is reason enough to love him.
Check out this interview with T.I. on Last Call With Carson Daly:


2. Making the Band 4 (Season 3) begins Thursday, February 12 @9pm on MTV.

Is Danity Kane Damaged beyond repair? You’re about to find out…

Diddy is back and as usual drama is right behind him… last season ended in tears and the claws came out when Dawn opened up to Diddy about what was really going on inside the group. Day26’s Que Moseley told MTV, “The reason Danity Kane is not together right now is because of Aubrey,” said Que (a.k.a Dawn’s boyfriend). “And I feel like she was all for herself, she only cared about making Aubrey happy. And when you’re in a group, sometimes you have to learn to humble yourself.” After hearing the dirt about the girls, Diddy gave Aubrey and D. Woods the boot, but will they be gone forever? Guess we will have to watch and see what Diddy has up his Gucci sleeve.

“Fairytale” - Sara Bareilles

This song brings out the feminist in me! It is the “Cinderella story” not told in children’s books. “Fairytale” is about defying the storybooks and not waiting for prince charming to come and wake you from your slumber. Sometimes your white knight has to work late and can’t save you…
You can catch Sara’s performance tonight on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno at 10:35/11:35C on NBC.
