Lindsay Lohan for Philipp Plein

She recently stripped down for a sexy spread in Playboy magazine; but her photo shoot for German designer Philipp Plein has created the opposite image for Lindsay Lohan.

In the ad campaign for Philipp Plein, Lindsay embodies the life of luxury and class.  I absolutely love all her looks.  The shot below with her wearing a turquoise dress and killer heels has me intrigued with this designer.

LOVE the HEELS!!!

I checked out Mr. Plein’s website , and he has some really unique and trendy pieces.  Unfortunately, the prices are not in my budget.  Anywho, I love this photo shoot and thought you guys would enjoy some classy Lohan as well! Which is your favorite look?

 

 

 

 

Miranda Kerr Flawless Post-Baby Body in Harper’s Bazaar

My favorite VS model may have given birth ten months ago, but her body says otherwise. The 28-year-old Australian posed in nothing more than her birthday suit for the upcoming November issue of Harper’s Bazaar Australia.

She was styled by Jillian Davison wearing a leopard print towel on her head and sky-high, red Dolce & Gabbana stilettos. The cost of her Cartier earrings, two Bulgari rings and two Delfina Deletrez cuffs added up to a whopping $59,279.

She is still breastfeeding ten-month old son Flynn, whom she refers to in the Harper’s story as a ‘bundle of love.’

‘It’s the best thing I’ve ever done,” the brunette beauty gushed about being a mom. ‘Becoming a mother puts everything into perspective.’

She added, ‘You become more comfortable in your own skin.’

She also discussed the possibility of becoming an actor like her husband, saying, ‘If someone approached me and it sounded interesting, I wouldn’t be opposed to it.’

Love it or Above it?: Nicki Minaj’s Hot Pink Fried Chicken Wing Pendant

At last weekend’s iHeartRadio concert where every single relevant artist was in attendance, different styles were loudly mixed together under one roof.  Amongst the pool of talent included Nicki Minaj, who possibly wore the weirdest accessory on a female rap artist: a hot pink fried chicken wing.

Seems like Nicki has been trying to compete with Gaga’s bizarre fashion as of late, but can she still make it hot? Call me crazy but I would wear this. Not with her whole ballerina ensemble above, but I love hot pink, fried chicken and gold chains =) A measure of confidence goes a long way whenever you are stepping outside the box. As long as you feel good, you can convince others it looks good!

What do you think? Would you rock a hot pink fried chicken wing around your neck?

Rihanna Sports an Androgynous Look for Emporio Armani Ad

When Megan Fox stripped down to her underwear for Emporio Armani last year, she literally stopped traffic with her smouldering Sunset Boulevard billboard.

Now Rihanna is the next star to drop jaws as she shows off her sensational curves for the Italian clothing label.

The 23-year-old flaunts her figure in an array of lacy bras and panties, and poses seductively in the back of a vintage car to front the new Emporio Armani lingerie campaign. And just like Megan, Rihanna also shows off some of the collection of her tattoos in the steamy shoot.

While Rihanna is sexy in the campaign, the singer revealed a more boyish short blonde hairstyle in the shoot.

Rihanna’s photos were taken by Steven Klein, well known for his W magazine editorials with Madonna, Brad Pitt and various other famous faces.

Rihanna was announced as the global new face of Emporio Armani Underwear and Armani Jeans back in July.

Before Rihanna, it was sexy Transformers star Megan Fox who was stripping down to model the brand’s lingerie.

Fashion Trends for Fall 2011

Although Fall does not officially start until September 23rd, it’s time prepare your Fall wardrobe so you can keep turning those heads and catching those compliments =)

Here are the key trends to follow this upcoming season:

  • mustard hues, bold oranges and rust tones (inspired by colors found naturally throughout the season)
  • plaid on plaid attire (as an evolution from summer’s color blocking trend; combining the use of two or more blocks of color in an ensemble)
  • chunky grandma-style sweaters (the chunkier the better)
  • pair your chunky sweater with flowing gauze like skirts (it’s a look you can wear throughout winter season as well)
  • darker colors! Jazzing up any gray-toned outfit with a pair of bright-colored pants in the red or orange family will give any autumn outfit a style that’s “fresh and fun.”
  • long sleeve mini dress (acts as a substitute for summer’s sun dresses, long sleeves display a level of class, sophistication, and common sense)
  • a touch of lace (lace is always sexy and when done in minimalistic amounts, it reigns supreme)
  • polka dots! (March Jacobs and DVF had fashionistas seeing dots all over the runway)

This fall, less isn’t necessarily more when it comes to outfits.

Some of fall’s prettiest sweaters, puffer jackets and blazers come with whittled-in-at-the-waist silhouettes—which means you can flaunt your ladylike silhouette even if you’re wearing lots of layers.

Coachella 2011 – Celebs & Style

The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival (commonly known as Coachella or Coachella Festival) is a three-day annual music and arts festival, organized by Goldenvoice in Indio, California, in the Inland Empire’s Coachella Valley. The event features many genres of music including alternative rock, indie, and electronic music as well as large sculptural art. The event has several stages/tents set-up throughout the grounds, each playing live music continuously.

“Isn’t she Wonderful?”

Meet Designer/Stylist, Jessica aka Lovely Jessica.  Not too long ago, I reached out to Jessica after viewing an amazing blazer in her Facebook profile picture.

Megan Fox’s New Armani Ad: Too Skinny?

Megan Fox has been voted the most beautiful woman in the world in various magazines over the years but appalling new photos of her have left fans wondering if her slender figure has become too skinny.

 

Megan has previously stripped to her underwear to advertise Emporio Armani’s lingerie – but the tables have been turned somewhat in her latest advertising campaign for the fashion house’s fragrance Armani Code.

The Jennifer’s Body star has just been announced as the new face of the scent, and has shot a sultry commerical which sees her pose with a naked man while she remains relatively covered up.

In sizzling scenes, the 24-year-old – sporting a sleek black bob – cavorts with the hunky male model on a rooftop overlooking the Los Angeles city scape at night.

At first, the man is wearing a tuxedo, but, as the city lights twinkle below, he soon strips off and Megan is also seen naked wrapped in a black sheet showing just her back to the camera.

It appears that Megan doesn’t smell so bad either. According to experts, Armani Code Pour Femme has notes of of orange, orange blossom, ginger, pear sorbet, jasmine, vanilla, woods and lavender honey. Armani meanwhile says the scent is a ‘sexy, femme fatale kind of perfume – a woman’s mysterious code of seduction revealed’.

Do you think Megan looks too skinny in these photos? Is she setting a bad example for young teens to strive towards a nearly impossible image?

 

Amber Rose During London Fashion Week 2011

Even though my girl crush, Amber Rose, has not been in the spotlight as of late – I cannot neglect sharing her beauty with you guys as she enjoys the shows and parties during Fashion Week in London.

She stopped by the BodyAmr show wearing a skin tight, open shoulder dress (shown above) and also attended the Julien Macdonald show donning a bright orange trenchcoat (shown below) – not really feeling the fit :-/

Of course she partied it up in a casual outfit wearing sunglasses, a Point Beer t-shirt, black leggings and combat boots, at Apres night club.
