Blake Lively Already Has Louboutin’s Spring Collection
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,
Blake Lively has already had the Christian Louboutin Spring collection delivered to her house.
The fashionista - who is rarely seen without a pair of the designer's shoes - had her own sneak preview of his latest range, ahead of New York Fashion Week, which kicked off yesterday.
"My gosh, the spring collection was sent to my house today, and they're so beautiful. They're amazing. I walked around my apartment wearing them."
Her favorites are a pair of "cage, crystal-encrusted shoes and one with a feather detail coming off them."
Gossip Girl star Blake has previously admitted to buying up to 40 pairs of Louboutins at a time, and although she doesn't have her own stylist, is a personal friend of Christian, who advises her on which pair to wear and takes her cues from stars past.
She added her muses are "Katharine Hepburn, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly. I love the sophistication. I love every single detail. I would love if I could wear little cut-off gloves every day. That would make me so happy. I'd go to a grocery store in a beautiful hat with lace dripping over the eye."

Stella McCartney admits she's ''embarrassing'' when she sees people with her designs.
The fashion designer loves seeing members of the public donning her creations and can't stop herself going up to them to say so.
"I'm embarrassing when I see someone in the street with one of my bags, I'm like 'nice bag.' It's really embarrassing, I need to stop actually!" she told Vogue.co.uk.
While she loves seeing everyone in her designs, Stella says the person she would love to work with is Jodie Foster: "I'd love to dress Jodie Foster - I love her! I always wanted to dress Meryl Streep too, but she's just started to wear our clothes, so I'm really chuffed."
Despite her success, Stella also revealed she's still motivated by the values that have marked her career."I'm very motivated about trying to make tiny bits of change in the industry. To maybe make people think in a different way - if I didn't have that point of difference in not using leather or fur, I think I'd be less motivated. It feels like it has a little bit of reason behind it, other than just making a nice dress."

Cindy Crawford's daughter Kaia is the new face of Young Versace.
The 10-year-old child of Cindy and Rande Gerber has been praised by the brand's creative director Donatella Versace, who says the camera loves her: "Like her mother, Kaia has a very special gift. The camera really, really loves her. Having Cindy on-set for the shoot took me back to all the amazing Avedon shoots we worked on together. It was such a special treat watching Kaia walk in her mother's footsteps!"
Cindy is also delighted her daughter is following in her footsteps because she has such fond memories of being model for the Italian fashion house: "I'm so thrilled that Kaia was chosen to be part of the first Young Versace Campaign. I have so many fond memories of the times I spent with Gianni and Donatella. There is something so very special about the House of Versace."
Cindy recently claimed models had a hard time getting work as they now had to sing and act in addition to looking their best. "I just saw the CoverGirl commercial with Taylor Swift and I thought, 'Wow, it is so hard for models to get a job these days.' You have to sing and act, too. There doesn't seem to be as much work specifically just for models."

Tali Lennox's campaign for Karen Millen has been unveiled.
The daughter of Scottish singer Annie Lennox and Israeli film and record producer Uri Fruchtman is the new face of the British fashion label and creative director Gemma Metheringham is thrilled with the "uplifting" campaign featuring Tali: "To sum up the mood of the season, it is upbeat and uplifting, and this is reflected in our new campaign. Our collection has a lightness to it and, as this is the season of the separate. We are encouraging our customers to create their own looks and style using our wonderfully versatile pieces."
The 19-year-old beauty has replaced Victoria's Secret model Jessica Hart as the face of the campaign and Tali previously revealed she is thrilled with her developing career as a model because she never liked school: "I was never really the type who wanted to be at school. I don't believe in the pressure of having to follow a certain timeline. It's great when you're doing a shoot and it's something bizarre; you can feel really confident in a different character."

Designer Praises Kate Winslet’s Effortless Style
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers,
The designer of Kate Winslet's Golden Globes gown has praised her elegant style.
The Mildred Pierce actress chose a black and white Jenny Packham dress from the British designer's latest collection and Jenny revealed she was thrilled to see Kate step out on the red carpet in her gown on Sunday: "I am a huge fan of Kate's work so I was very excited. Kate's style is very strong, so putting a selection of styles together was effortless. The dress Kate chose was literally completed the day we selected the styles. I think she looks divine - but I am biased!"
Jenny - whose clothes have been worn by Angelina Jolie and the Duchess of Cambridge - believes Kate is a perfect model for her dresses because they compliment her beauty rather than overpowering it: "I believe very much that the dress should make the woman feel confident and attractive. Kate, for example, wears very classic glamorous styles with well-defined silhouettes. The dress chosen combines these looks and does not overpower or compete with Kate's beauty."

Jamie Bell has walked the runway for Prada's menswear show. Miuccia Prada - who has been at the helm of the Italian fashion house since 1978 - recruited some of Hollywood's hottest stars, including Jamie, Adrien Brody, William Dafoe and Gary Oldman, to model the Fall/Winter menswear collection at Milan Fashion Week.
Jamie, however, admitted the experience accentuated his insecurities about his looks and made him realize how "short" he actually is: "You suddenly see how short you are. You discover nervous twitches in your face you didn't know you had, and you don't know where to look."
