Checking in with The Celebs

Edited by

Every now and then I like to check in with the celebs to see what they’re wearing on and off the Red Carpet. The assemblage includes many of my perennial favorites who always appear effortlessly chic.

Checking in with The Celebs Halle Berry…..the woman can do no wrong when it comes to fashion; of course it doesn’t hurt that she is drop-dead-gorgeous!

Checking in with The Celebs Heidi Klum…….I love this dress on her, as well as her choice of Christian Louboutin shoes; the fact that they are a different color really adds an extra dose of chic.
Checking in with The Celebs Model Vanessa Webb’s dress is absolutely resplendent! I love the shock of red with the metallic shoes. The only thing that I would do differently, is the hair. It’s my opinion, that when wearing, a standout dress such as this, hair should be equally as beautiful.

Checking in with The Celebs America Ferrera……I love her in this dress, it really looks great on her. Not so sure about the earrings though.

Checking in with The Celebs Jay Z & Beyonce…….another of those ladies that can do no wrong when it comes to fashion, Beyonce is always on point. I love her look from head to toe.

Checking in with The Celebs Kate Beckinsale………yet another of my favorite people; she is a vision from head to toe. The softly curled hair, beautifully draped dress and Christian Louboutin mary janes equals perfection!

Checking in with The Celebs June Ambrose…….ever stylish and chic, Stylist June Ambrose is always a do.

Checking in with The Celebs Zoe Saldana……love the dress and the color which really “pops” against her skin. Another great look.

Checking in with The Celebs Zoe Kravitz……I love, love, love this look on her! This is one of THE best head to toe looks that I’ve seen her wear. She looks sweet and chic.

Checking in with The Celebs Taylor Swift……another of my favorites; not only is she a great singer, but she really “knows her way around” fashion. I personally haven’t seen a miss yet!

Checking in with The Celebs Ciara…….this dress is perfect for this gorgeous lady, as it looks perfect on her long and lean legs.

Checking in with The Celebs Scarlett Johansson…….she is everywhere lately and looking great! While she simply glows in this unique Armani Prive dress, her hair looks a bit “mature.” With “so much going on” with the dress, I’m sure that she wanted to keep accessories and such understated, but I think she would look great with a simply bun on top.

Checking in with The Celebs Mary J. Blige…….Mary J. is another fashion maven who is always a do. This is another perfect look. Again, I must speak on hair, she is a pretty lady, but this is not the most flattering hairstyle. Bear in mind, that these comments are purely my opinion and I in no way mean to demean anyone. Apparently this is what she likes, as she has been wearing it this way for quite some time; I’m just giving my two cents.

Checking in with The Celebs David Beckham…….ah…..handsome David! In my book, he’s another person who can do no wrong when it comes to style. He’s ALWAYS gets it right!

Checking in with The Celebs Jennifer Lopez……Apparently this is the bun that has been buzzed about the last couple of days. I must say that I love it; not everyone can pull off such “big hair,” but she certainly can! Jennifer knows what works for her which is evident by her stylish and chic fashion choices. she looks as though she stepped from the pages of a 60′s issue of Vogue.

Checking in with The Celebs Nicole Richie…….this is a good look for her; it appears that this is a harem jumpsuit and I love it.

Checking in with The Celebs Vanessa Williams…….she is a vision in cobalt blue!

Checking in with The Celebs Victoria Beckham…….I usually like pretty much anything that she wears, but I’m lukewarm on this look. I always expect that kind of “pow-pow-bang” from her.

Checking in with The Celebs Gabrielle Union…….I like this look, kind of understated and sweet. I really love the shoes!

Checking in with The Celebs Jessica Alba…….she, as always, is perfect from head to toe; the statement necklace adds just the right touch. She is another perennial who knows what works for her and turns it into her own stylish look.

Checking in with The Celebs Estelle……this is a nice casual look, but I would love to see the entire boot!

Checking in with The Celebs Rene Zelleweger……..Rene, Rene, I’ve said this before about her, while she always wears beautiful dresses and shoes, her hair usually appears a bit shaggy and unkempt. I would love to see her with a “fancy” updo and chandelier earrings. Again, this is purely my opinion.

Checking in with The Celebs Rashida Jones……..I love the shoes, but the way that the pieces are put together makes her appear a bit “matronly” The top and skirt with a cropped jacket would offer a younger more fresh look.

Checking in with The Celebs Catherine Heigl…….I love the dress. The addition of the necklace and belt make it a great look.

Checking in with The Celebs Idris Elba………another handsome man who falls into by David Beckham category. He looks great in anything that he wears!

Checking in with The Celebs Robert Downey Jr. & Gwyneth Paltrow…….both look fabulous! I love Gwyneth’s jacket and shorts; it’s a nice take on the traditional suit.

Checking in with The Celebs Rachel Roy……..While she is usually the epitome of chic, this look really does nothing for her. I can imagine that the event that she attended was of a conservative nature, so possibly that is the reason for her outfit choice, but it ages her.

Checking in with The Celebs Gwen Stefani and Kingston……….she and kingston are casually chic ! I really love her jacket.

Checking in with The Celebs Selita Ebanks……..While I like the overall look, the shoes kind of throw things off a bit, at least for me. A nice bootie would make the look at little more “clean.”

Checking in with The Celebs Kate Hudson……..I believe she is attending a premiere, but whatever the occasion, I LOVE the Louis Vuitton cape!

Checking in with The Celebs Dr. Courtenay Chatman and Actor Michael Jai White…..I had to include them, as she looks like a gorgeous goddess! Talk about a perfect fit, that dress appears as though it was made especially for her.

Checking in with The Celebs Brooke Shields…….love the dress and even more the color! It’s a good look on her.

Checking in with The Celebs Gayle King……..Gayle is looking really good! It looks as though she as lost some weight. she is working that dress!

Checking in with The Celebs Kate Hudson…….I had to add this picture as well because I love the look. Of course the first thing that caught my eye is that beautiful fringe bag and the fact that it matches her elbow patches.

Checking in with The Celebs Toni Braxton……..She is one of those people (like Halle Berry) who really, really looks great with short hair. Her look is simple, understated and chic.
Checking in with The Celebs Melissa Rycroft……this is another of my favorite casual looks; everything is in sync.

Checking in with The Celebs Kelly Rowland……..you really can’t tell if she wearing a mini or shorts, but I like what I can see of the look; nice bag.

Checking in with The Celebs Selma Blair and Kirsten Bell…….Selma’s look kind of reminds me of Victoria Beckham’s tux, just kind of blah. I do however, Like Kristen’s dress

Checking in with The Celebs Brandy………nice head to toe look.

Checking in with The Celebs Courtney Love……she looks great……This is one of the best pictures of her that I’ve seen in a long time!

Checking in with The Celebs Mya…….I’m liking her “rocker chick vibe.”

Checking in with The Celebs Aisha Tyler……I love the dress, but Ithink it’s the shoes that Kind of throw things off a bit. A strappy metallic or snakeskin would really give it a different look.

Checking in with The Celebs Miley Cyrus……..Doing things her way; you have to admire that.

Checking in with The Celebs L.L. Cool J………..Nice casual look.

Checking in with The Celebs Chris Pine & Zachary Pinto……..I like both looks, it appears that they actually put some thought into what they’re wearing.

Checking in with The Celebs Kimora Lee and Kenzo…….what a cutie Kenzo is! I don’t think that I’ve ever seen a picture of Kimora this casual. I can remember reading somewhere, years ago, that she said she always wears heels and didn’t like flats. I have seen her in more flat sandals lately, I’m sure much to do with the fact that she has a young baby, coupled with the fact that after wearing nothing but heels for years, her feet need a break!

The striking fashion

Edited by

We all see the birth of new fashions around us each and every moment. It’s within seconds the trends are getting changed, and the old ones are getting replaced. It seems that, the organizations of these days are focusing on the replacement strategies, as they always show the eagerness to adopt changes.

All are adapting changes without any hesitation. It’s the most important quality been expected from a fashion model management agency. These agencies do not rely only on management activities, but they do provide services in modeling too.

What people expect from such agencies is change and fashion is updating with the change, which they really expect. Massive campaigning should be done, in order to make fashion striking. Its also an activity of such management agencies, which seems to be tough, but simple in the real sense.

Lady Gaga’s Fans Are More Like Lady Gaga than Herself?

Edited by

Lady Gaga’s Fans Are More Like Lady Gaga than Herself?Lady Gaga’s Fans Are More Like Lady Gaga than Herself?

Every time Lady Gaga appears in the public’s eyes, she creates a panic towards people’s understanding about fashion. When all the Hollywood female stars try every means to make them in vogue in order to attract the public’s eyes by chasing after top brand accessories, Lady Gaga always creates a kind of fashion of her own. Her fashion is not to make the public feel dizzy by wearing designer handbags or dazzling jewelries or something else?but to be extreme in whatever she wears. No wonder many fanshionistas called her a fashion extremist. Love her or loathe her, Lady Gaga is creating fashion and drawing public’s attention.

Lady Gaga’s Fans Are More Like Lady Gaga than Herself? Lady Gaga’s Fans Are More Like Lady Gaga than Herself?

Unlike another hot and influential star Victoria Beckham who is known to the public as a loyal fan for Hermes handbags, Lady Gaga seems to have her own understanding towards fashion. It seems to her fashion is not what the top brands defined but whatever she likes. She is mostly on her own way. No wonder she becomes the most controversial star in Hollywood. People either love her or loathe her. There is no middle ground for Lady Gaga.

Lady Gaga’s Fans Are More Like Lady Gaga than Herself?Lady Gaga’s Fans Are More Like Lady Gaga than Herself?

A few days ago, several pictures on the internet revealed Lady Gaga’s great influence on her fans. Some fashion commentators even say Lady Gaga’s fans are more like Lady Gaga than herself. These comments express themselves quite clearly: Lady Gaga not only becomes a byword for a kind of fashion but the fashion becomes influential on the public.

Courtney Love: Indie Style Icon

Edited by

With a new album out, Courtney Love is resurfacing again to inspire a whole new generation of neo grunge princesses. We can’t deny Courtney has defined a look for herself that fuses vintage beauty queen with rock and roll grime. From her days with Hole, back in the 90′s wearing baby doll dresses and Mary Jane shoes, how could we not predict she would become a style rock and roll icon?

Now as she matures in her own way, Courtney reinvents her style time and time again and like Courtney herself, it never gets old. Last night on David Letterman, she wore a silky, cream colored top with a flat, black pencil skirt looking very interview appropriate, but as she took to the stage, she donned a gothic dress dripping with black lace.

Yes we might have seen her during personal hard times defining the word hot mess, but Courtney knows her stuff. She collects dresses dating all the way back to 1929 with the help of her vintage dealer Timeless Vixen. Love also shops Boudoir Queen, a gorgeous boutique of vintage inspired dresses and adornments. Courtney’s closet must be a gold mine of beautiful vintage frocks, we can only imagine.

Do you love Courtney Love’s indie style?

I’m onboard with the whole “flower thing.” especially the more understated pieces, such as Roberto Cavalli’s dress, as some can appear a bit busy.I do however,love the over-the-top floral and flower, shoes and handbags, certainly if they are akin to that luscious Miu Miu boot!
