“I hate celebrities. All those pointless girls — I won’t name names, but you know who I mean. They are ‘famous’. Ridiculous. I like women with style: actresses like Uma Thurman, icons like Audrey Hepburn. I like women with style to wear my shoes.”

BOOK TO KNOW: How to be a Hepburn in a Hilton World

Author Jordan Christy campaigns for a new type of “It Girl” in her new book of advice, How to be a Hepburn in a Hilton World. All of you who voted Anne Hathaway in our Quest yesterday can rejoice: this new It-Girl is “successful, stylish, smart” with “classic ideals and values” making her more like Anne then Megan Fox. Christy labels this current It-Girls as “stupid girls” and shares her encounters with them, incase your middle/high school experience and the current state of Lindsay Lohan infested tabloids wasn’t enough of a hint not to be like them. Christy does well and refrains from just bashing, her book is filled with tips how to dress, act and have fun so you can find what every smart girl wants: love, happiness and success. It all sounds a bit cliche on the surface and Christy’s book may sound like common sense to some of you but it’s a fast changing world anyone who has style, class and grace figured out in these tough times is a good friend to have.
Christy’s book features gimmicks such as the “Hepburn Guide to Self Respect Quiz”, meant to tell you what your image says about you but can also be useful in telling your friends that they are a little too Paris-esque for your liking (no one wants to be friends with a slutty camera whore). Christy suggests that we read the dictionary during Lost commercials, which seems a bit extreme to me but she did succeed in making me appreciate Mrs. Hepburn a little more. And a little extra motivation for all us working girls: Madonna used to be a Dunkin Donuts employee.
So, whether you read this book for its dating tips (an unexpected perk I especially enjoyed) or as advice how to tell your BFF she’s too much of a Hilton to stick with, or to just better yourself in general you should read it. Ps: This is also a good way not to end up on our Street Zeros column.
TRENDSPARK: Trouser Pants

Wasn’t it just last week that I was predicting trouser pants for fall? Well now Fab Unfunded, Nylon, and Victoria Beckham agree, trouser pants are in.
Get the look that Nylon calls “mom jeans” with pleats and high waists, which is flattering on almost every figure. This style of jeans or pants are going to be, and already are, showing up in stores everywhere, but get yours first before everyone else! (The Elizabeth and James ones I featured last week are still my favorite, very Audrey Hepburn)

Jennifer Love Hewitt celebrated her 30th birthday at the Tiffany’s store in Beverly Hills Saturday morning. She literally had breakfast there and let all the paparazzi snap her inside and outside the store.
J. Love actually starred in the made-for-TV movie, The Audrey Hepburn Story, several years ago. I’m thinking she just saved one of her costumes?

Celebrities from back in the day are making quite the resurgence on the red carpet! Although they might not be carbon copy styles, current lime-lighters are certainly walking in the foot steps of silver screen alumni, leaving future celebrities with major style shoes to fill! I am absolutely loving Aggy’s edgy geometric play on Twiggy’s signature version of the page-boy coif! And Dita Von Teese couldn’t have modernized Elizabeth Taylor any better!

They’ve all stared in some pretty horrendous GAP ads. We’ve collected thirty of our favorite ads and placed them on Don’tAdvertiserHere.com for your viewing pleasure. Whether it’s the limited release Spike Jonze directed ad in which the GAP gets trashed or the somber Mellow Yellow ads or the pre-Pirates Orlando Bloom spot, they’re all on. While watching you’ll quickly realized why you hated the GAP and come to terms with American Apparel’s rise to pornographic fame.
Here’s are four of our least favorites…
Ashton, Zooey, Jay and Scarlett love bike riding for the GAP.
A never aired ad featuring a dancing Laura Prepon
Carrie Bradshaw and Merlin Bronques for the GAP?
QUITE POSSIBLY THE WORST AD EVER!!!! I hate vests because of this…
Moments of Style: Audrey Hepburn, 1954

Clicking through “The Top 10 Oscar Looks” on People.com, it was obvious which dress was going to be my favorite. Audrey Hepburn’s 1954 Oscar dress is truly a timeless design. The belted floral Givenchy design was feminine enough to show off Hepburn’s delicate figure and bold enough to make a lasting impression.
