Jessica Simpson Smells Provocative
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, News, Sales,
Jessica Simpson‘s new fragrance is “provocative.”
The singer-and-actress is releasing her third scent, entitled Fancy Nights, and says it is the perfect perfume to wear on an evening out: “It is a deeper, richer scent - more provocative.”
The spicy scent includes warm notes of bergamot and Egyptian papyrus blended with Indonesian patchouli, Bulgarian red rose and night-blooming jasmine, and Jessica believes it showcases a different side to her personality. She told People, “A fragrance can lead you deeper into a mood. Fancy Nights gives me the chance to express a more romantic side of my personality.”
The 29-year-old beauty’s last fragrance, Fancy Love, was inspired by being in a romantic relationship. Vince Camuto - CEO and founder of the Camuto Group, which holds the global license for all Jessica’s brands - said, “Jessica loves the feeling of being in love, she is a romantic girl. The fragrance was inspired by love. And she’s inspired by love.”
While she was dating ex-boyfriend Tony Romo - whom she split with last year - Jessica revealed she wanted to pay tribute to her relationship by launching a perfume: “Romance has never been more important to me so I wanted to celebrate that special feeling with this new fragrance.”
Jessica’s debut scent, Fancy, was released in 2008.

Miranda Kerr credits yoga with helping maintain her stunning figure.
The Victoria’s Secret model is a huge fan of the relaxation technique and although she knows staying slim is vital for her career, she would do it anyway because of the health benefits.
The 27-year-old beauty said, “Regardless of whether I was doing this job or not I would be taking care of my body. Yoga is very good for me.”
Australian Miranda - who is dating Orlando Bloom - says having a healthy lifestyle is something she has grown up with: “It’s something that I’ve always believed in growing up. We always ate organic vegetables. Taking care of my mind, body and soul is very important.”
Miranda recently revealed she feels a responsibility as a model to promote healthy eating, particularly to the younger and more impressionable members of society. “As soon as you step into the public eye you need to take responsibility for the people you are influencing. Body image is something that the majority of young women struggle with and I do think it is important that models are seen to be healthy and at a weight that works for their body type.”

“[Karl] Lagerfeld had cast the show with a slightly more curvaceous model named Crystal Renn, not seen on any Chanel catwalk before. This in itself was groundbreaking for the house, but there was also the return of personality models encouraged to be themselves instead of robotic look-alikes.”

Preview Ready-to-Wear 6126
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Models, News, Sales,
While Lindsay Lohan offered up a nice peak at her 6126 line’s handbags, a more complete view of the ready-to-wear apparel has hit the internet.
Leather, fur, lace, thigh-high boots, and neutral shades dominate the line, which features LiLo herself (big surprise there). Additionally, you’ll be able to spot a younger Lohan in the photos (after the jump) as well as a hunky shirtless guy. The line is cute, but there’s nothing in the line that I couldn’t get at Forever 21 or Topshop. If you still want to snag a few of these pieces, you’ll unfortunately have to wait until this fall.

Kim Kardashian Goes Au Naturel
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
First she was baring her curves and womanly figure—now Kim Kardashian is baring her natural complexion to prove that she’s just as beautiful without the glam.
The 29 year-old reality star bravely shed her makeup for an all-natural Life & Style shoot. “Make-up is fun, but it’s just another accessory. I’m happy with myself, and this is who I am. As much as it’s fun to glam up, the most important thing is to be comfortable in your own skin - with or without make-up,” she told the magazine.

Gemma Arterton Happy With Her Curves
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, News,
Much like A-list actress Anne Hathaway, Prince of Persia starlet Gemma Arterton refuses to conform to Hollywood’s idea of the perfect figure.
The stunning actress is a UK size 8-10 (US 4-6) and while she’s still very slim, it is regarded as big in the movie world but Gemma won’t risk her health in a bid to fit into a smaller size.
“I went to a designer the other day, who will remain nameless, and he said to me, ‘I’m amazed that you’re fitting into those sample sizes.’ And I thought, ‘Hang on a minute! I’m a size eight to 10! I should be amazed that the largest you’re making these in a size six.’ But the only way I could ever be a size six is if I didn’t eat. I’m not naturally meant to be that size, and I just feel like there’s a responsibility for people that aren’t that size to make that known. All I can do, I think, is try to look good. I have things made for me, so they fit.”
Gemma, 24, also chooses designers which cater for women with a curvier figure. She told Stylist, “Louis Vuitton always makes things in decent sizes that look good on anyone who has hips and a waist. And I really like L’Wren Scott, Alberta Ferretti, Givenchy, Balmain and Armani. I only wear this stuff at event. The rock ‘n’ roll look is more my sort of thing.”
Model Found Unconscious After Suicide Attempt
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Models, News,
Coming close to following in the late Daul Kim’s footsteps, UK model Noemie Lenoir, 30, was found slumped in a forest on the outskirts of Paris after she was believed to have taken a deadly mix of alcohol and drugs.
The Victoria’s Secret and Gap model was found by her on-again-off-again boyfriend Claude Makelele, who had called emergency services that were called off when Lenoir regained consciousness, only to be found unconscious again by a passerby.
“She had clearly attempted to harm herself and had fallen unconscious. She was rushed to a nearby hospital and treated for the effects of poisoning. It seems that she had made a cry for help. She’s now in a far better condition and recovering,” said a source close to the model.
Many have come to speculate that the model’s troubles lie with her current boyfriend, Swiss millionaire Carl Hirschmann, who is believed to be involved with various extortion and sex scandals.
