Here's Kate Moss with a boycut that looks very chic on her. I actually like her better in short hair (like Linda Evangelista), she has great bangs here. Rather preppy and yet, it has a bit of an urban edge and definitely chic and sophisticated.

Kristin Stewart of Twilight a bit Goth looking in this short, somewhat punk or punky hairstyle. Long wisps by her eyes, dyed very dark, black.

Not her Bella hair. Does she pull this off?

It almost looks as if it's in a ponytail to me.

Checkerboard Hair (photo)

This unique cut is a short cut for a woman that looks like a checkered cut. The photo above it shows what she looks like with her head up. I think it's pretty amazing to look at. The hair is dyed a pale white adn then the clippers make the checkerboard look. The roots below make the "black" or darker squares. Pretty interesting styling here.

I could so not get away wiht this haircut, but it is so fascinating to me. There's another I want to share as well. It's pretty amazing to see. It adds a uniqueness to hair I don't always see, but honestly, while I'm not sure I could wear this myself, I'm fascinated by these hairstyles and dye jobs.

Valextra: Bag Obsession

The beauty of Valextra bag is it's simplicity and luxury without shouting out loud 'hey I am Valextra', unlike others. This Milan based brand speaks of style and sophistication. It is not for the woman who seeks attention, but for the one who delights in the satisfaction of quiet opulence without the need for loud logos or monograms. Valextra bags brilliantly exude sophistication with simple structure and clean lines - minimalism at its finest.

Who loves it - Katie Valextra Obsession

When it comes to obsession, Katie Holmes sort of tops our list. First she had an obsession with Chanel everything then it was her Chloe Paraty Python Bag, further she could not be spotted without her Roger Vivier Mikado Flat Bag.

And now Katie Holmes has got a new obsession - her white Valextra's Slim Shopping Tote Bag. Its sleek and stylish basic shape makes it a great handbag that can be carried with just about any style.

And its not just Katie Holmes who loves Valextra's bags. Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie have the Valextra Babilo Top Handle Bag, while both the Beckhams have Valextra Travel Bag in white (Posh) and black (David).

Valextra has been popular with celebrities since 1937. The great thing about the bag is that with its minimilistic chic you will be able to use it everywhere for years to come.

If you love clean, structured and chic bags like Valextra, you must check out Matt and Nat luxury vegan bags. They're a better buy, considering they're ethical and cruelty-free while being stylish and smart at the same time. And yes, even they are celebrity fav.

In Spot: Renee Zellweger

Sophisticated, chic and immaculate Renee Zellweger....

Walking in sunshine to Good Morning America
Renee Zellweger looked absolutely breathtaking from head to toe while heading for Good Morning America Studios at Times Square in her chic gray pencil dress from Carolina Herrera Resort 2010, which she complemented by her eye popping orange Hermes Birkin bag. She completed the look with nude pumps (that look delightful) and brown aviators.
It's an immaculate look that Zellweger is carrying. Do you like?








Leaving Regis and Kelly's Show

Lately Ms Zellweger has really been catching attention with her gorgeous looks and eye-popping style. Earlier she looked stunning in a grey dress while going to GMA, and now this blue dress looks just absolutely fab. Her bags are equally smart. First she had an enormous orange Hermes Birkin, and now she’s carrying a much smaller, much more expensive Hermes Kelly in burgundy crocodile that is perfectly complimenting her navy dress, and the aviators give the outfit a bit of an edge. She is wearing nude shoes and gold Rolex with the outfit.

Sex and the City 2 - Trend Watch

Carrie Bradshaw and her girl pals are back with the sequel of SATC - Sex and the City II. Filming for the movie SATC II officially began on 1st September 2009, and I am sure all the fashionistas and SATC fans around the globe would love these first shots of Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah JessicaParer), Miranda Hobbs (Cynthia Nixon), Charlotte York (Kristin Davis) and Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall) out and about NYC.
.
Are you excited to see the gang back together? Read on.....
.

.

Girls Together
.
What are the four lovely ladies wearing?

A newly single Samantha looked sexy in a cutout LBD, VBH Palm clutch in shocking mastice drip python (worth $1300), gold hoop earrings and black Ray Ban shades (she could have done better in the shoes department).

Miranda looked lovely in an asymmetrical neckline mustard dress cinched with tan belt, that complemented her red hair, and Yves Saint Laurent Triumph platforms (they cost $795).

The always gorgeous Charlotte was pretty in pink - a pink skirt suit, matching satchel (all Dior) and dead gorgeous white and pink Louboutin slingbacks.

And the leading lady, SJP, wore a Halston Heritage white dress, gold and metal Chanel clutch and glittering leopard print Louboutins.
.
.
Who do you like the best?
My vote goes to Miranda.
.

The first shot

The first photos of Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) filming scenes for the Sex and The City sequel on location in New York City and we must say, we're quite impressed.
.
.
SJP looked every bit the fashionista in her first shot of SATC II where she was wearing a gorgeous V-neck white Halston Heritage dress which she accessorised with colurful jeweled Solange Azagury-Partridge necklace. She added gold sparkling tuches to her simple white dress with Mykita & Bernhard Wilhelm shades, a lovely gold and metal Chanel clutch and sky-high Christian Louboutin sparkling gold pigalle heels.
.
.
For all those who are thinking that the SATC II revolves around the recession hit Carrie and Big, think again. Not only is Carrie wearing those amazing Louboutins and Chanel clutch that cost a bomb, the Solange Azagury-Partridge necklace she adorned is worth $198,200. Not exactly recession-friendly, is it?

.
Super High Heels and Oversized Bags

The heels and the bags just get higher and bigger in the Sex and the City II.
.
.
In this shot, Sarah Jessica Parker's Carrie Bradshaw rocked a knotted plaid shirt (showing off her midriff) paired with skinny cropped jeans (with zippers at the ankle), a lime green wrist band, an oversized bag in grey and a $835 Brian Atwood Loca studded fierce heels in purple. Do you like her shoes?

While Carrie sported a causal look, Miranda looked fab in striped dress (love the colour of her dress) that she accessorised with a long matching necklace, an oversized brown tote with orange handles and matching studded high heeled strappy sandals. I would say my vote among the two ladies goes to Miranda again.

I am totally lusting Miranda's bag.
.
.
.
Style in Colour and Louboutin
.
SATC 2 replaces Manolo Blahniks with Christian Louboutins. SJP aka Carrie is Louboutin loaded in the new Sex and the City movie. And looks like, colours are in full rage in their new wardrobes. We've seen purple, green, mustard and pink earlier.
.
In another shot, Carrie is sporting four different colours in one ensemble. Carrie Bradshaw stepped out on the streets of NYC rocking a sparkly purple Halston Heritage cocktail dress, which she paired with with the Christian Louboutin Gino T-strap heels (in yellow, black and gold), Christian Louboutin's large Sylvia hobo bag in pink and Jee Vice’s Heated orange shades and a silver floral pendant necklace and a chunky silver bracelet.

Is that a colour overdose or the new twist to the popular colour blocking trend?
.

.
While Carrie sported all colourful look, Miranda chose to colour herself in fuchsia pink for two different scenes in the movie Sex and the City II.
Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) is wearing a fuchsia pink cowl neck top, which she paired with a tan jacket and white jeans. Love the fuchsia and white combo. From what looks like, she is wearing blue trainers with the pants and carrying a red bag. In another shot, she is clad head-to-toe in a hot pink ensemble, wearing a lovely Roland Mouret crepe dress with matching Christian Louboutin heels. Even her blackberry cover is matching her outfit.
.

.
Girls, hot pink is going to be the new hot colour for the coming season. We had earlier seen even Charlotte (Kristin Davis) wearing all pink in one of the first shots of the movie. Pink shoes, pink bag, pink dress - it does look good.
.

in Dior newspaper-print dress from Season 3
.
Sarah Jessica Parker wearing the same backless Christian Dior's newspaper-print dress for SATC sequel that she had worn during Season 3 of Sex and the City (when she apologized to Natasha for wrecking her marriage with Big).

In the movie, she paired the sexy backless number with super high Louboutin lace booties, which can be spotted from a mile away from their trademark heels. Its the second time she is wearing another sparkling shoes from Louboutin in the movie.
.
Is this start of a new trend, glittery shoes?
.
.
.
Colour me Green (purple...pink)
.
Sarah Jessica Parker and Kristin Davis wore green dresses during the movie Sex and the City 2.
SJP sported a green upside down tree dress that she teamed with a contrast blue and pink colour block clutch and black, blue grey shoes. The accessories contrast way too much with the dress to like. Does not go well. You like?
She's wearing the same star pendant that she was spotted in earlier.
.
White SJP choose to go with a contrast look, Kristin was all matchy-matchy in green with a monochromatic look. Kristin wore a gorgeous ruffled green dress that she matched with suede green pointed pumps and a green tote. Although its definitely a green overdose, but she still looks pretty.
.
While Carry and Charlotte made their statement in green, Samantha looked smoking hot in purple halter. She completed her purple dress with a thick gold and turquoise blue belt cinched at waist, huge statement earrings and purple rimmed shades. She wore wodden clogs in purple to go with her attire. She was seen wearing the same shoes earlier in the movie shots, but in cream.

Excited to see the flick? It is expected to debut on May 28, 2010.
Yup its a long wait. But till then stay tuned for more photos and style doze.

CARDIGAN: Michelle Obama's Style Statement

Her taste for unconventional fashion elegance has made First Lady Michelle Obama a style icon. She has sent a stir across the fashion critics for her ability to be a strong risk taker despite the First Lady title. But she has definitely brought a new freshness to the fashion world with her unusual choices and smart accessorising.

Apparently our favourite clothing piece, CARDIGAN, is a key piece of almost every ensemble of the First Lady and more often than not she wears it well. The First Lady has brought back the cardigan back on the fashion map with a modern elegance. In fact, her style is so closely associated with carigans that her wax figure at Madame Tussauds is also dressed in a cardigan. A cardigan with pushed-up sleeves over a sleeveless dress or a simple blouse has become a signature look of the First Lady.

Michelle Obama has an extensive range of cardigans in various styles and colours including brights, beaded and neutrals that helps her to dress up or down depending on the cardgan style.

Dressing the Cardigan

Durig her visit to a school, Mrs Obama wore a sapphire blue Jason Wu dress and Junya Watanabe cardigan accessorised with her customary pearl strands. For Easter Services, she opted for a subtle floral v-neck sheath dress from Peter Soronen and a cream cardigan, which she again understatedly accessorised with pearl strands.
.
.
.
At a reception honoring Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor at the White House, Michelle Obama was dressed in a ivory and black pleated dress by Jason Wu topped by a short-sleeved turquoise cardigan with a cardi-matching Erickson Beamon brooch and chunky bracelets.
.
Michelle Obama doing white differently
Mrs Obama wearing a white Moschino blouse at two different events, styling it smartly with cardigans.

She wore a studded Sacai belt over a pink Junya Watanabe cardigan and her white Moschino blouse, paired with trousers while visiting children. At another, more formal, event she chose to wear her same white blouse with a black skirt and a black cardigan that was cinched with a patent black belt.
.

Embellishments and Mint
Michelle Obama exuded effortless chic in a jacquard mint-green pencil skirt and an embellished cream cardigan, both from the label J. Crew, that she wore at her visit to 10 Downing Street (residence of Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown). She accessorised her outfit with kitten-heeled animal-skin-print shoes and her signature pearls. Her embellished cream cardi was the perfect choice to liven up her outfit.
.
.
Doing it casually
Michelle Obama smartly paired a beige cardi over a Tracy Feith colourful dress while shopping in Paris, the beige cardigan goes well with the dress subtly toning down the colours. She sported a stylish J. Crew cashmere argyle cardigan, teamed with cropped grey trousers, while volunteering at the Capitol Area Food Bank.

.
With cardigans, you can create multiple looks or brighten up your outfit or simply save yourself from the chill. You can go sleeveless and then cover up, dress up or down depending on the occasion and the weather. Wear a bright coloured sweater over a simple LBD and add some chunky accessories to revamp your dress or just wear it over a simple white shirt for a new look to the office.
.
It's one practical style solution that you can wear with just about anything and anywhere.
