Futuristic, bizarre, entertaining, colorful and even animalistic were the designs showcased and admired at the couture shows in Paris Fashion Week. However, one designer who creates to excite and stir no-frills is Elie Saab (47) - with his timeless, beautiful evening gowns. As one of the last set, Elie Saab presented his haute couture collection. Most dresses were in pastel and had the design and feel typical for Elie Saab. The inspiration for this collection were accordingly fairy tales and princesses. -- Pink Fridays ...

Oscar’s Best Dressed and more
Another night of glamour and lovely gowns, I must say and here's some of the best. Cameron Diaz in a nude Gucci gown with gold beading and cascading ruffles while Gwyneth donned a caped Tom Ford gown. Notice the difference in hairstyle though. --- Penelope Cruz in a flowing periwinkle creation by Armani Privé, perfecting a classic Grace Kelly polish to her ensemble with diamond jewels and shiny curls. --- This pale mint hue, Elie Saab gown on Berenice Bejo certainly is a trademark of the designer's couture piece. Bejo's copper locks went well with the gown and carefully matched with emerald-and-diamond drop earrings. -- Best Actress nominee for My Week With Marilyn Michelle Williams in ...
Jennifer Aniston receives her Star
Jennifer Aniston receives her star at the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The 43-year-old was accompanied by her boyfriend Justin Theroux and her father John Aniston (78) for the unveiling of her star on Los Angeles' most famous pavement, the Walk of Fame - honoring Aniston's achievements in film. She was also with costars from her new film, Wanderlust. Just Go With It costar Adam Sandler's speech goes "She prayed for three things. To have everyone in the entire world be fascinated with her haircut, to one day star in a movie about an evil leprechaun who kills people, and most importantly, receive a star on the prestigious Hollywood Walk of Fame. Well today, Jennifer, the trifecta is here." He was ...
Dress up like Miranda
Less is more...especially if you're Miranda Kerr. Orlando Bloom's wife and Victoria's secret angel was seen in a summery tube dress that may seem simple but looks stunning on her. It is but right that husband Orlando says she makes being beautiful 'look easy'. Miranda paired her white-navy knee-length dress with brown wedges which she doesn't really need for her height but as a fashion icon, donning them makes her statement clear. Inspired by Miranda's look, here's a summer getup to match hers, although I'd get a cheaper look alike of the 1,400€ Yves Saint Laurent beige leather chyc tote. ^_^ ...
Michelle Williams dons H&M at BAFTA Awards
Michelle Williams looks stunning at last night's British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) securing her again as one of the best dressed celebrities at awards nights. High street chain H&M customized this black ivory ensemble for her, as part of their exclusive Conscious collection. Dark polished nails, red lips and the famous clutch, bookish by designer Olympia Le- Tan, is a tribute to Arthur Miller's work The Misfits. Michelle played Marilyn Monroe in the film "My Week with Marilyn" and earned a nomination for Best Actress which she lost to Meryl Streep for portraying Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in The Iron Lady. ...
Stunning Taylor Swift at the Grammys
We're used to seeing cutie Taylor in curls and red lips but for this year's Grammys she went with a slick bun and neutral makeup to match her Zuhair Murad nude silk mermaid gown and gold Neil Lane jewelry. The collared, capped-sleeve floor-length gown is a perfect getup for Swift's frame and back cutouts added a sexy yet elegant touch. Isn't she glam or isn't she GLAM? ...
SPRING/SUMMER 2012 WOMENSWEAR COLLECTIONS
Taking inspiration from 90's minimalism, Reiss SS12 attributes the clean lines from past Calvin Klein campaigns, and the appeal and vintage cut of Jean Paul Gaultier. Playing with measurements, materials and layering ensure that the clean lines of the 90's silhouettes feel fresh and modern. Layering separate materials in new lengths creates a distinct softness and heralds a ‘new way of dressing,’ which is both feminine and wearable. Print injections enhance this further, as sheer fabrications are overlaid on colorful prints. Prints of various colours are also pieced together or inserted with sheer panels. Knitwear ranges from micro wool to chunky stitches, in chalky pastel tones and soft ...
GGL Bags
GGL stands for George Gina Lucy --- a line of handbags created by Germany-based designers Nicholas Neuhaus, his wife Nicole Bailly, and their common friend Oliver Bruno in 2004. I have bought them since and really loved each of those that I've had. I find my choices boring, really, a yellow bag? I don't know why I bought this piece but I don't regret it, size-wise I can put my camera in it (a bulky Canon 7D with an 18-200 lens), a flash, make-up minibag, wallet and some more stuff. There are 3 main zippers with the middle having three smaller pockets. I might have mentioned this before but I'll mention it again, each bag has a unique name and when you first buy it, the tag includes a ...
Hoist Roc It Fitness System
If there's a so-called favorite exercise machine, I'll choose Roc Its various machines. "Using ROX™ technology, equipment makes the user an integral part of the exercise motion by continuously adjusting the position of the user with the movement of the exercise arm. ROX™ technology achieves an exercise movement that results in optimal biomechanical positioning and increased range-of-motion throughout the exercise. This exercise motion mimics the more natural, comfortable, and functional movements of free weight training. Additionally, the rocking movement constantly shifts the user’s center of gravity to impose small, yet appropriate challenges to the core musculature, while maintaining ...
New Cath Kidston Bags
The ever-popular Cath Kidston bags have been updated with side gussets to give you more room, and now comes in new designs too. Well, the one in photo might be old but I'd definitely get this for my daughter. She's been using the same bags for years and she has none of those waterproof ones. I got introduced to Cath Kidston by a friend who loves them. Been reading reviews here and there but mostly of other makes. It's great to know that on one site I visited, a representative of the brand is answering negative feedbacks and offering renewals. Most of the complains are about the magnetic catches tha are easily removed. Hopefully they get to make it better. Anyway, would still love to buy ...

Vöslauer Balance
I'm no fan of soda water or any other flavored water but when Vöslauer got their natural mineral water combined with selected flavors and extracts of fruits and herbs, I was hooked... So did the kids. Here are three of our favorites: There are many other variations of the Vöslauer balance. There's about 12-16 calories per 100 ml, I somehow have this notion that it cleans your system, especially the one with grapefruit--- also suitable for diabetics. ;) -- ...
