Luckily for most of us, the skinny on skinny jeans is that you don’t actually have to be skinny. Indeed, the operative word in this style refers to the cut of the pant, and not the wearer: they are long and narrow, hence, skinny. (more…)

A Look at Why Celebrities Love Salt Swimwear

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Salt Swimwear is a line of one-piece and two-piece swimsuits that was only developed in recent years by fashion designer Layla Pakzad. Even in the short period of time that this niche fashion line has been around, it has gained some serious attention from the media. This has been due in no small part to the fact that there are a number of celebrities who have taken a liking to the design and who can be seen spotted on the world’s most glamorous beaches wearing one of these swimsuits. Luckily for you, they’re not so outrageously priced that they’re designed for celebrities only so if you still haven’t gotten brave enough to purchase this year’s swimsuit, this might be a line that you’ll want to take a closer look at before the cooler weather is upon us.

Blake Lively and boyfriend Penn Badgley

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

Gossip Girl Blake Lively and boyfriend Penn Badgley were out and about having dinner at Nobu in NYC. Blake looks casual but very chic, as always, while Penn’s attire leaves something to be desired.

Blake Lively - Penn Badgley

From top to bottom, there’s everything wrong with his look. From the rolled up sleeves on the his out of date plaid shirt to his flip flops. I don’t know about you, but I think flip flops should be saved for the beach. I’m not sure when it became cool to wear them to a public restaurant. Hopefully, the trend doesn’t continue.

Blake always looks stylish and maybe she needs to perform a fashion makeover on her man. If he had to wear shorts, maybe a polo shirt and some suitable shoes would have been more appropriate.

What do you say? Is Penn’s outfit acceptable for a public restaurant?

Apparently he’s a big fan of the plaid shirt and shorts look. Here is the twosome again a couple weeks ago.

Gossip Girl Blake Lively and Penn Badgley

Again Blake looks fab and Penn … eh, not so much. At least he put on closed shoes. I have to say, Blake Lively’s puppy Penny is just absolutely adorable. The couple is often see hanging out with the cute little dog.

Glossy patent belts come in an array of sizes from micro-thin to super wide. If you are thick or short waisted, forget about a wide belt and stick to something 1-inch or thinner. If you want to draw attention away from your waist, wear your belt a little lower than your natural waist line. (more…)
