Big news out of last night’s VMAs, peoples: Beyoncé is a baby mama-to-be! Which totally explains why I’m detecting even more glowiness to her skin than usual. Between that and her rad side-pony and the bright orange Lanvin dress, there’s no question she stole the show.
And you know who is probably not happy about it? Katy Perry. Ever since photos leaked of her new hair colour—which her colourist, Rita Hazan, confirmed to be lavender, not pink—I’ve been waiting for a proper reveal instead of that scraped-back bun we saw with the backdrop of a gas station. And now it has arrived, and I’m disappointed. The contrast of Beyoncé looking all kinds of gorgeous doesn’t help.
Come see what I mean—plus check out the rest of the red carpet-walkin’ celebs… Keep reading »
Did you watch the Teen Choice Awards last night? All I know is that it’s the awards ceremony where they give out the surfboards. And like the MTV Movie Awards and the Billboard Music Awards, it’s one of those “casual” red carpet events—which for me, would be a nightmare to dress for. Don’t you think? I have no problem when the dress code calls for black tie, or the complete opposite (sundresses, jeans and if we’re really talking, even stretch pants occupy way too much space in my wardrobe). But the territory in between is always tricky. How do you strike that perfect balance between Appropriately Dressy yet Not Trying Too Hard?
One of the ways is with beauty. The right lip, the right eyeshadow, the right hairstyle—they can all either elevate a casual outfit, or tone down one that’s otherwise too glam. It’s magic, truly. And some of the stars here, such as our friends Taylor and Blakey, really demonstrate how it’s done. (Fergie, on the other hand, well, there are no words.) Let’s review: Keep reading »
The two most exciting news stories of the day, as far as I’m concerned, have to do with Emma Stone and Leighton Meester. Specifically their hair at the MTV Movie Awards last night: Emma’s back to red, which pleases me very, very much (even though I was really starting to get into the blonde), and Leighton has stepped out with a fabulous-looking Ombré (despite my declaration that its 15 minutes were up). I love a good red carpet beauty shake-up, don’t you?
In other news, Hailee Steinfeld, who is all of 14 years old, once again demonstrates an effortless yet supremely sophisticated point of view when it comes to beauty (and fashion). No, it’s not fair, but we adults should take note. And just wait ’til you see Elle Fanning, 13-year-old sister of Dakota. Le sigh.
Anyway! Lest all of these collagen-rich tweens and twentysomethings start to depress you, I’ve also got pics to share of the also-gorgeous Reese Witherspoon, Cameron Diaz and Brooklyn Decker. (Oh wait—Brooklyn is only 24. We just need to talk about how her beauty look is aging her.) And lots more! Keep reading »
