Jennifer Lawrence in Teen Vogue

In the past year Jennifer Lawrence has been nominated for an Academy Award, had the opportunity to play a superhero in the soon to be released X-Men movie, and been cast as Katniss in the highly anticipated movie adaption of the Hunger Games series. Such a busy girl. She is also the latest covergirl on Teen Vogue.

Style Highlights: Anne Hathaway

Today I am inspired by Anne Hathaway's impeccable red-carpet style. She always looks put together and classy. What inspires you? Leave any thoughts in the comments below!

Anne knows how to stand out from a crowd. This sparkly dress could've easily looked like a costume on the wrong actress but Anne's easy confidence makes it a miraculous event not a disaster. She kept it simple with patent leather heels and only a few bangles for accessories.

This is a masterpiece! I love the lace. The fringe. The bow. All of it. Valentino hit it out of the park with this crisp white dress. I'm just speechless. There are no words to describe how much I adore this dress. I want it for my closet...if only I had a place to wear it to.

I think Anne got a little inspired by the tropical location of her newest film, Rio. The easy lace. The simple braid detail in her hair. The peep-toe shoes. Anne looked like she was ready to head out to the beach as soon as the premiere was finished. She looks flawless.

Anne was one of the best, if not the best, dressed lady of the night at this year's Golden Globes. Her stunning Armani gown stole breaths from the viewers at home and the ones who were lucky enough to see her walking down the red-carpet live. The bronze-y gold color was perfect for her skin tone. And Anne looks confident. She knows she looks amazing and we all agree.

Style Highlights: Jessica Alba

Jessica Alba is currently pregnant with her second baby. Congrats! But that has been known to the public for ages now. Today I'm writing about Jessica because although I just watched The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer and hated it, there is no doubt that Ms. Alba is a fashionista in real life and totally stunning.

Jessica looks totally ready for spring! Her Marc Jacobs mini is to die for and I adore the chunky velvet shoes she paired her look with. They're so young and chic! Her hair is simple and her makeup is basic to keep the main focus on that drool-worthy dress. Where the attention should be!

Just because Alba looks stunning in a floral mini, doesn't mean she can't rock a men-inspired pant suit. In black from head to toe, she looks flawless and ready to take on the world. She added a subtle pop of color with red nails and to break up the monochromatic look, she added a simple white clutch and a bit of bling.

My closet is calling for this dress. It is so versatile and elegant. The floral detailing along the skirt is perfection and I adore her bold choice of a deep lip. It keeps the look planted firmly in the fashion world rather than letting it wander into the land of little girls and dress up. Chunky heels are a fashion statement that I am a firm believer in and her hair is simple and fresh.

Bold. Alba went bold in this edgy one-shouldered look. She kept the look all black, save for the flashes of bronze and gold along her neck and at her wrists. Her hair and makeup were severe and very rock and roll. Appropriate for the AMA's, no?

Victoria Beckham is Beautiful in Elle

There is just something about British style that is so completely different compared to American style. Victoria Beckham is a style icon. She takes risks--most of which that pay off. And she doesn't let main stream media stop her from wearing what she wants to. I adore her fashion and Victoria Beckham Collection.

Victoria was interviewed for Elle Magazine last year. She looked so pretty that I knew that I would have to feature it in one of my posts. And its finally time. The styling was done by Joe Zee--an amazing man! I hope you enjoy!

"When people say...'Poor you, it must've been really difficult'--poor me? I live in Beverly Hills. I'm very, very lucky. I wake up every morning and reconize I'm blessed." Beckham in a Dior Haute Couture jacket [left] and Diour Haute Couture veil [right].  

"You know, I love America. It's such a positive country." Backham in Diane von Furstenberg swim suit paired with Nina Ricci platforms shoes [left] and Valentino gown [right].

Beckham describes herself as the "squarest woman in Beverly Hills" who goes "to a normal movie theater" with her friends to screen, The Hangover. Bekcham in a Stella McCartney jumpsuit and Giorgio Armani Prive pumps [left].  Beckham in Dolce and Gabbana underwear [right].

Eva Mendes, Backham's friend, described her as "the sexiest, most stylish mother in the world." Beckham in a Roberto Cavalli printed silk-gown [left] and Melange cashmere dress paired with a Stephen Jones for Giles leather hat [right].

If you have any celebrity's closet, who would it be? My answer would have to be either Victoria Beckham or Keira Knightley, British version. American version would be Anne Hathaway or Blake Lively. But my answers seem to be constantly changing. Who would you pick? Comment below!!

Behind the Runway with Karlie Kloss

 I know we all like to think that models just pop up at the begining of the runway with perfect hair and perfect clothing. With little to no preperation. We all know its not true but most of us don't know what goes on behind the scenes. What do models do for hours--while they're getting their hair and makeup done? While they're waiting for the show to begin?

Well, here's a look behind the scenes with Karlie Kloss. One of my favorties! :)

Here's a fun video I found on Teen Vogue's account on Youtube. :) She seems so down to eart and cool. Want to know Karlie's winter weather essential? It's not what you think.


Bye, guys! I'll talk to you soon. :) Who should I blog about next? Suggestions are warmly welcomed!
