Coachella Fashion Bashes: Belvedere, Lacoste & Armani Exchange Rocked Our Socks

Amanda Gabriele — Wed, 20 Apr 2011 18:12:45 +0000

Coachella Music Festival can be summed up in two words: sensory overload. Music and fashion lovers gathered in numbers around 250,000 in the piping hot desert of Palm Springs for a three day, six stage, 200+ band concert series. In addition to every trendsetter and eccentric in the country, the performances drew in the best of the fashion industry and young Hollywood. FashionIndie & Lookbooks was there to witness it all, and we certainly have a lot to report on. Here’s our recap of the best fashion events of the weekend.

Armani Exchange Neon Carnival: Armani Exchange and 944 Magazine took over a private airport on the outskirts of the festival and built a fully-functioning, Armani Exchange-branded carnival. In addition to the ferris wheel, giant slide and carnival games, they managed to build an outdoor club in the middle of the venue, complete with celebrities and bottle service. DJs Devin Lucien, Jesse Marco, and DJ Politik kept the energy high while young Hollywood danced the night away. Josh Hartnett, Paris and Nicki Hilton, Camilla Belle, Kellen Lutz, Penn Badgley, Tara Reid, Jamie Chung and Elijah Wood were just a few of our celeb spottings.

Belvedere Music Lounge: The Belve Music Lounge provided a peaceful oasis from the hot desert sun. Located at a private estate in Bermuda Dunes, the lounge had a refreshing pool, mini sand pit, cold cocktails, a fun photo booth and models in bikinis demonstrating the Belvedere shaker app on iPads. DJ sets were as sought-after as the festival lineup: The Knux, Taryn Manning, Dirty Vegas, Yacht, Punches, Blaqstarr, DJ Berrie, Junior Sanchez, Theophilus London and more spun for our pleasure. Our celeb spottings included Rosario Dawson, Brittany Snow, Laidback Luke and Miguel.

Lacoste: Lacoste L!ve, the younger, more fashionable crocodile, hosted a Pool Party that supported the efforts of The Voice Project foundation. Patron popsicles cooled us off while DJ Cassidy kept us dancing. Celeb spottings included Katy Perry, Alexander Skarsgard, Malin Akerman, Kirsten Dunst, Diane Kruger, Joshua Jackson, Adrian Grenier, Ke$ha, Lea Michele, Kelly and Jack Osbourne and Jared Eng.

Style Tips from Hollywood’s Leading Men

Josh Linam — Wed, 09 Mar 2011 22:47:36 +0000

We see them seducing the world’s sexiest women, battling evil villains, and looking absurdly cool all the while. But what’s the secret to the leading men of Hollywood‘s style? Here’s a hint…

Brad Pitt is king of versatile, and the man can pull off any look. Spanning styles from an entire century in Benjamin Button, sporting dingy second-hand finds in Fight Club, and shifting to chic in Meet Joe Black – Brad owns any look he dons. He teaches us to dominate the clothes we wear, instead of letting them upstage us.

Hollywood’s indie fashion expert, Johnny Depp has schooled masses of men in fedoras and Bohemian scarves.

George Clooney knows that to dress like a movie star, you shouldn’t try to dress like a movie star. Always understated, never overdone – Clooney reveals that simple sophistication is key to formalwear.

Matt Damon is a t-shirt and jeans kind of guy. Yet, he never looks like a fratty college guy. Fitted tee and dark tailored jeans, Damon maintains his manliness.

Master of modern prep, Chace Crawford demonstrates the art of urban cool.

Who doesn’t like James Franco? The guy looks like James Dean, freely offers goofball smiles, and wears well-tailored jackets like this one. A timeless leather jacket is the first step towards looking like a big screen superstar.

Josh Hartnett embraces the artsy actor inside. You can see Josh strutting the streets of NYC in easy trendy looks like this one. Josh never tries too hard. Neither should you.

Ryan Gosling knows a suit’s fit is really more important than the label. It’s not the money you spend on it; it’s how you wear it.

Robert Pattinson sports plenty of stylish looks. But let’s be honest. It’s the hair that separates this English actor from that other guy in Twilight. Never forget the hair.

Ryan Reynolds is another leading man with adaptable style. You could wrap a burlap sack around the man; he’d still look like a baller. In the end, it’s Reynolds’ never-waiving confidence that allows him to land Hollywood beauties like Scarlett Johansson. A confident gaze is the essential finishing-touch for any ensemble.

The Timeline of Fashion Through 10 Movie Favorites

Nicole Vardo — Sat, 29 Jan 2011 17:32:10 +0000

It doesn’t really matter where you are or where you’re going, what they say is true you can find fashion anywhere, or at least inspiration. From everyday life to the hours of television we might spend watching, throughout time it’s always a good way to go back a couple years and review all the pop-culture and bizarre fashions of our past style movie favorites. From the wicked 90′s fur to crazy six inch flip-flops let the nostalgia or regrets begin!

Clueless (1995)- If this 90′s classic wasn’t already on your top 10 movies list of style and rich girl ways well then start jotting! Alicia Silverstone is the best prepster out there, and no matter how old we are or how many fashion trends pass by Clueless will always remain a fashion favorite… through knee-high socks, more than enough argyle to handle, feminine school girl blazzers and especially because Britney Murphy was in it too!

Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion (1997)- A little on the dumb-ass side and I’m pretty sure no one would wear as much metallic and glitter as these two on screen best friends, but it’s still fun to watch their adventure in going back to their high school reunion and dominating the Madonna-inspired blasts from the pasts.

Spice World (1997)- Victoria Beckham‘s style may be taking over the style headlines a lot more than the Spice Girls do now, but it doesn’t mean that we would ever forget baby spice, scary spice, ginger spice, posh spice, sporty spice, or any other spices that I’m forgetting in between!

Jawbreaker (1999)- Catty and backstabbing what other way would a girl like their movies, when you accidentally kill your best friend in your favorite pumps?

The Virgin Suicides (1999)- When it comes to Kristen Dunst’s careless ways she makes any film look awesome! Sofia Coppola (director) filmed the movie in an angelic sort of sunlight state, and with the simplicity of the style on the girls, from sundresses to school outfits, the obsession of five boys falling in love with mysterious sisters begins, and they watch them on the road to suicide.

Factory Girl (2006)- Starring Sienna Miller as Edie Sedgwick a muse of all muses for the New York City life style of Andy Warhol. Not to mention, Mary-Kate Olsen gets her five minutes of fame getting to rock the furs and the smoking glam of this crazy 1960′s fashion filled film.

500 Days of Summer (2009)- Zooey Deschanel would be the perfect heart breaking type girl, with her vintage dresses and humorous ways as she completes every girls dream to crush the boy who’s insanely in love with her in nonchalant ways.

Whip It (2009)- Ellen Page plays a rebellious small town girl who creates a wicked life for herself in Austin, TX. And along with Drew Barrymoore and Landon Pigg she rocks her indie-child style with combat boots, random skirts, and bizarre rock band tees!

The Runaways (2010)- When hearing the names Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart you don’t normally think of one on one girl make out sessions or drug addict… which in their case would be a good thing but luckily these two actresses rocked the hell out of bringing the Joan Jett and Cherie Curie’s wild child style to life!

Black Swan (2010)- Obviously what kind of timeline would this be without listing Natalie Portman’s surprise act of dealing with perfection and giving us a mental image of just how good Rodarte ballet wear could be!

7 Fashionistas Disguised as Actresses

Lester Brathwaite — Tue, 11 Jan 2011 20:52:15 +0000

Now that awards season has descended upon us all like a blizzard of sequins and tulle, the nation’s red carpets will be crowded with starlets jockeying for attention. Some of them will be there with acceptance speeches in tow, and others will just be happy to be nominated. Then there are those so-called actresses who barely go to the movies let alone star in them, yet are there because they love wearing gowns, heels and chandelier earrings. Their presence is not offensive, rather, they are often among the best dressed…but I defy you to name one movie you’ve seen them in within the last year.

1. Kate Bosworth – She’s a red carpet staple, but if you tell me Kate’s been in anything since 2002′s Blue Crush I’ll laugh in your face. You could argue that she was Superman Returns but Lois Lane disappears from view as soon as she turns sideways.

IMDb says: The Warrior’s Way (2010), A warrior-assassin (yes, Kate) is forced to hide in a small town in the American Badlands after refusing a mission.

2. Camilla Belle – She of the strong brow and even stronger fashion instincts, Camilla was in 2006′s When a Stranger Calls, but she could easily have been the stranger as I had never seen her before (or since) then.

IMDb says: From Prada to Nada (2011), A Latin spin on Jane Austen’s Sense & Sensibility, due out at the end of the month. Keep ringing, Belle.

3. Kerry Washington – Stunning Washington has been in critically-acclaimed fare such as Ray, The Last King of Scotland and Save the Last Dance (speaking of which, the last thing I saw Julia Stiles in was a commercial touting her as an original; I must have been mistaken), but if you add up her screen time from all of her films, she’s easily logged more exposure strolling the red carpet.

IMDb says: For Colored Girls (2010), Kerry is one of 10 women striving to survive through Tyler Perry‘s muddled direction and clunky adaptation of the Tony-winning play.

4. Vanessa Hudgens - Hudgens recently completed her most challenging role to date as Zac Efron‘s “girlfriend,” a part in which she was never truly convincing. Though known for not wearing clothes, she’s still one of Teen Vogue‘s Best Dressed Celebs of 2010.

IMDb says: Bandslam (2009) also known as High School Musical 12: Our Careers are in Freefall.

5. Rachel Bilson – Ever since The O.C. ended, Bilson has emerged as a style icon for young girls who see her engaging performances every week in the pages of Us Weekly and In Touch.

IMDb says: Bilson will star in rom com Waiting for Forever out in February — just in time for me to slit my wrists on Valentine’s Day!

6. Emma Roberts – The extent of my knowledge regarding Emma Roberts: she’s Julia Roberts‘ niece. Oh, and she’s Eric Roberts‘ daughter. Though she’s making a name for herself as a legitimate actress, for now her last name and her emerging glamor are her only defining characteristics.

IMDb says: It’s Kind of a Funny Story (2010) I’ve actually heard good things about this dramedy about a clinically depressed teenager in an adult psych ward, but I, like everyone, haven’t seen it.

7. Demi Moore – Despite not having been in a movie since husband Ashton Kutcher was in diapers (and Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle doesn’t count so don’t even try it), stylist Rachel Zoe is always on the verge of a heart attack clamoring to dress her. For what, the supermarket? Demi always looks great, but a movie star of her stature should have at least one more good movie in her.

IMDb says: Bunraku (2010) And this is not it. Demi co-stars with Josh Hartnett and Woody Harrelson in a drama/fantasy about a drifter who blah-blah-blah, who cares? Striptease 2: From the Stripper Pole to the Nursing Home!

LAST NIGHT’S PARTY: Thursday’s At Soho Grand

Kirby Marzec — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 21:51:58 +0000

It’s plain and simple: the Soho Grand Hotel is the one and only place to see and be seen by New York’s trendiest on Thursday nights. Photographer Katya Moorman captured the action as buyers, models, investors and designers strolled in for a few drinks and a bit of socializing. Incase you didn’t see the Twitter updates, yes, there were brief appearances by Josh Hartnett, Demi Moore and Grace Jones, among others. If that’s not enough to get you to join us next time, I don’t know what else will!

SPOTTED: Josh Hartnett And Grace Jones At Soho Grand Hotel!

Corey Moran — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 18:18:40 +0000

Big name actor Josh Hartnett was spotted weaving his way through the crowd to the bar at the Soho Grand last night. Like every Thursday night, the Soho Grand was the place to be as some New York’s trendiest turned up to enjoy some amazing drinks and even better music from DJ’s Lindsay Luv and Jamie Biden.

It seems that the hosting skills of Niko Liakaris, Jon Daly, Fashion Indie and Fresh Productions NYC are top notch, because another notable character by the name of Grace Jones was spotted enjoying the scenery as well. While Grace was chatting up the room feeling right in her element, Hartnett took a view of the room for a corner seat the bar to enjoy his drink.

Josh Hartnett For Armani

Rebecca Alexander — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 14:54:42 +0000

Remember Josh Hartnett? He did a few movies and then disappeared… He’s back in the the new Giorgio Armani Diamonds for Men campaign, shot by legendary Mario Testino. It’s supposed to look like a real paparazzi shot, and Giorgio’s trying to play on the saying, “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend” or “Diamond’s are not only for girl’s.”
