Grandaughter moves like Jagger
Friday, February 03, 2012 AT 5:16 PM

And why shouldn't she when she is a product of Jade, grandaughter of Mick? 

Amba Jackson is all of sixteen but is clearly having no trouble continuing her family's style singature of laissez-faire raunch.

Having recently appeared at the launch of Marie Claire's Runway magazine wearing a lavender satin suit complete with plunging neckline, one has to imagine that this is just the beginning for her Jagger-like, spot-light enducing style moves.

Too mature for sixteen, you say? Possibly but with DNA dating back to Studio 54, it's fair to say she really didn't have a choice.

Maid in Manhattan: JLO's 5 kits in 4 days
Friday, February 03, 2012 AT 3:21 PM

While promoting her new Latina lovechild - reality television show, Q'Viva The Chosen, which she will host and produce with ex Marc Anthony - Jenn has stayed true to her signature roots in Diva.

Parading around NYC, it is clear the star has not forgotten where she has come from, with statement jackets, fur and booties confirming yet again that her love (for fashion at least) really does cost a thing (or a whole lot as seems to be the case). 

Due to present this month at the Oscars, the 42-year old may indeed be in the throws of another divorce, but with latest accessory Casper Smart hooked to her arm, one has to wonder whether the shedding of another Anaconda skin has been nothing but good for her. 

Ah, signature JLO. Is there anything better? Obvs. her choosing to wear Versace SS12 Haute Couture to the Oscars would be the cherry. HINT.

Madonna Rules, okay?
Friday, February 03, 2012 AT 1:21 PM


Can we all please take a moment to really consider just how fantastic Madonna is?

I mean, she's over 50 and she's still going strong. Others would have quit long ago, and I'm not saying this isn't perhaps a good idea for the Material Girl but you have to admire her sheer strength, her tenacity and her ability to reinvent herself even in this digital age. Quite the stayer.

I love that she still takes risks with fashion, and hasn't settled into the "I'm over 50, I should forget miniskirts, anything sheer and anything too fashiony" rule, like lots of stars do. So she might not always come across as age appropriate, who cares? The point is we talk about her, as she wants us to. And I love how she still wears sleeveless dresses and outfits like this, even though she gets totally bagged out for her muscular arms.

Just a point: have you seen most 50-year-old arms? What would you prefer - saggy and wobbly or tight and toned like Madge here? I know which I'd take - in a second!

She is bringing IT in this outfit. Totally bringing it. A mini vest with the best lace waist corset I have EVER seen and matching pinstripe pants, with a waist to ankle chain? I mean, come ON! Lady Gaga could only dream she was this good.


Kim Kardashian at Miami airport rocking the maxi skirt trend
Thursday, February 02, 2012 AT 1:46 PM


It's sad to admit, but as much as I can't stand the onslaught of the Kardashian klan or the way they bombard the public with their products, I just can't stop watching Kourtney & Kim take New York - especially now that I IQ it and watch it while breastfeeding! That Kris is a douchebag (and I only use that term because it seems to fit the American-ness of their show).

I don't blame her for wanting to divorce him, the bigger blame comes with thinking he was fit to marry in the first place! That's what happens when you marry someone you don't know. Khloe really lucked out with Lamar, I love him.

Okay, okay! I'll stop now. And talk about Kim's skirt. This is the perfect way to wear the maxi skirt trend if you're curvy. A straight skirt with a split will stop you from looking wider than you are, like a long peasant skirt might. Add a belt and a plain tank and it's an easy way to instantly update your look.

Is she winning you back yet?


This L'Oreal ad was banned in Britain for making Rachel Weisz "misleading attractive"
Thursday, February 02, 2012 AT 1:01 PM


I wouldn't even think this was one of the worse examples, but the British Advertising Standards Authority has banned this print ad for it "misleading exaggerating" how the product works. A member of the British parliament, Jo Swinson, initially complained about the ad which claims to make skin "look smoother" and the "complexion more even". Of course, photoshop was used to make the skin look smoother and her complexion more even, not the product!

The Authority also asked L’Oreal to stop using post production techniques (that means photoshop) that “misrepresented what was achievable using the advertised product.”

I'm just glad that governments, at least one member of which in Britian, is taking notice and DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT!

I mean, do we really believe that products made to make us look younger/ smoother/ less wrinkled which are then advertised with naturally-porcelain-skinned women will actually work? Everyone gets suckered in at some point, and parts with plenty of $$ in search of the perfect potion, so it's about time the companies responsible were pulled apart for lying to us even more.

What are your thoughts on beauty companies photoshopping women with the pure intent of selling products, without any thought as to the truth of the photograph?

WATCH: Victoria Beckham's video for her new, cheaper line
Thursday, February 02, 2012 AT 11:30 AM

Well, it ain't cheap, at all really, but instead of paying $5000 for a dress you might pay about a grand. The video is cute, as are the clothes, which, if I'm not mistaken, could almost have a touch of Marc Jacobs about them. What do you think? ...Read More

Christina Aguilera has a spray tan accident at Etta James' funeral
Wednesday, February 01, 2012 AT 1:19 PM


Whoops! What's that running down my thigh? Oh God. It's the spray tan. Shit.

Shit shit shit.

I knew I shouldn't have gotten a spray right before the funeral. Oh God I'm at Etta James' funeral, my idol, singing her famous amazing song, At Last, and I have spray tan running down my thigh.

Shit.

Cringe.

Maybe nobody will notice. Yeah, I'm sure I can hide this, I'll just wipe it off. There we go.



The AACTA Awards fashion round up: Miranda Kerr, Megan Gale, Rachael Taylor, Cate Blanchett, Asher Keddie, Emma Booth
Wednesday, February 01, 2012 AT 10:53 AM

Though lovely, it's not my favourite look of Miranda's. And can I just say I am really not digging all of this slinky, silky, satiny, bridesmaidy evening looks that keep popping up. It's all well and good on the Vanity Fair cover as an ensemble, but singularly like on Miranda here and on Vanessa...Read More
