Lanvin Pompon PM Cabas Tote

This Cherise Red nylon and ribbon pom pom tote by Lanvin is nothing short of amazingly pretty, frilly, and flirty, and of course I am in love with the red and pink colors. My love for Lanvin's designs runs very deep, but $1,435.00 for nylon and ribbon

Kristen Bell Going For a Genie Look

I hate it when gorgeous girls make bad wardrobe decisions.  Girls like Kristen Bell could basically look amazing in a potato sack (reference to the recent episode of Project Runway….if anyone else still watches it), but it doesn’t mean she should push the limits. Kristen, one of my FAVE young Hollywood stars , showed up to her own movie premiere of When in Rome in this ugly chocolate gown .  I know she has a great body, but why do I just hate this dress???  I am totally not a fan of the “sexy” cut-outs !  It’s just not a classy look on anyone and works better on a genie than a red carpet.  The combination of the shiny fabric and the whole knotted-cut-out thing just looks like something you would find at Forever 21…cheap and unsophisticated.  Did she steal this from Fergie’s closet

SAG Awards 2010

The Screen Actors Guild awards took place last night in Los Angeles, and I can't help but wonder exactly how many of these Awards shows do celebrities actually need, to feel recognition and all good about themselves (doesn't having millions in the bank when the rest of us are slightly to very broke already put a pep in their shiny heels?)??? One definite good thing that came out of last night's ceremony was Nicole Kidman looking like she had a pulse in a lovely embroidered Oscar de la Renta and a deeper shade of red tresses. Welcome back to the redhead club! There were many other lovely actresses who were also in attendance looking resplendent and elegant, particularly Sandra Bullock who looked absolutely flawless and tiny in Alexander McQueen, and Glee's Lea Michele who looked stunning in Catherine Malandrino.
