Natalie Portman Te Casan Shoes Collection

Vegans are special. So special that they’ve got to have their own line of shoes: Te Casan (www.tecasan.com). After reviewing some of the models for fall 2007, I decided that vegans are targeting 40years old customers.

Without forgetting some of the models that fitted the young and trendy, you have to know that Te Casan takes luxury to another level. They manufacture shoes in a very limited edition, each pair has a number imprinted down on it.

“As a global brand, diversity and embracing difference is part of the fabric. The name té casan (tae-ca-sahn), “A Woman’s Path”, is Gaelic and originates from the inspiration of a global name that represents no specific nation or language and refers to all women. The search for the name was conducted in 3 different continents. It defines a universal identity with all women but belonging to no one particular country, place or person. The name embraces the legacy and strength of all women. Of women, for women.”

I wrote this post to announce you that beginning January 15th, you can preorder the new collection Te Casan, a very special collection, designed in collaboration with Natalie Portman. The shoes will be available from February and 5% of the profits will go to charity.

Fashionistas Surprisingly Do Go For Fur Coats

Despite of all those Peta commercials, regardless to all those actresses who militated against fur, Kate Moss and Kate Bosworth love their Fendi Fur coats.

Personally, I hoped it won’t become a fashion it when super trendsetter Kate Moss first made her appearance with this bicolored Fendi fur coat. Instead of that, another supposed-fashionista stole Kate’s style: Kate Bosworth. Only she accessorized it with a large belt.

I’m not saying fur coats aren’t beautiful (for some people) and luxuriously controversial (that surely are, since they involve slaughter) but this grizzly-looking black and white coats really do make a difference.

Between good taste and bad taste. Bad taste won. By far.

After choosing those heavy bangs and changing her mythical haircut to follow a trend cut, Kate Moss is really keeping my curiosity alive about how low she’s going from now on.

Angelina and The Best Friend Symptom

Dont’ double check, you do read a page about style. And because of that, I give you today the Angelina Jolie Latest Style. I chose a title that may not give you the inside story right away, but stay with me and you’ll see just what I mean.

I’m sure plenty of you have watched Angelina over the years, intentional or just because she was allover the news. And if you think about it for just a second, you’ve seen her evolve and grown into a mature woman, you’ve seen her as a teenager, a lover, a wife, a friend, a mother.

Angelina Jolie Teenager Angelina Jolie Black and White

Angelina Jolie and Brad PittLately everybody stopped seeing just Angelina and switched to Brangelina. The magnetism between them was obvious (even if we agree with Brad’s relationship decision or not) in “Mr and Mrs Smith” so they brought it to life when they exposed themselves as a couple later on.

Then their first biological child came and ever since, Angelina’s on a slimming spree.

And I’m not saying having all that children on your hands doesn’t help you get your tonus back after a pregnancy, I’m just saying there’s something else to it.

Just recently, an interview of Angelina’s appeared in Grazia magazine, stating that her ever slimming figure is due to emotionally stressed 2007.

“I want people to understand who I am as a person is not somebody that’s trying to look thin, but just trying to work through a very difficult year.”

And then she continues confessing about her relationship with Brad Pitt:

“He is just a great friend and when my mother passed, he was so great,” she said. “He sat with me and held [my mother’s] hand. After she passed away he spent the night asking my brother and me about our mother and got us to tell funny stories about her. He focused on all the love and joy we were fortunate enough to have had. He was extraordinary.”

Angelina Jolie Kissing Billy Bob Thornton Angelina Jolie Hugging Billy Bob Thornton

I feel like having a bad taste déjà vu. I’ve already seen this kind of statement from Katie Holmes about her beloved Tom Cruise, now I’m supposed to keep quiet and let myself fed with this lie all over again? Well, I won’t buy it! What’s wrong with these women? It’s like they don’t really have something else to say about their men except they have a deep respect for them, that they’re best friends and they’re just great persons. I bet they are! But what is that have to do with, for example, a once very expansive and explicit Angelina declaring her flame for Billy Bob Thornton and how magnificent her intimate relationship was with him? Oh, you’d say she grown up, then?! I’d say something’s fishy here. Like she stated back in 2003 when she divorced from Billy Bob:

“It took me by surprise, too, because overnight, we totally changed. I think one day we had just nothing in common. And it’s scary but… I think it can happen when you get involved and you don’t know yourself yet.”

Mr and Mrs Smith guns Mr and Mrs Smith blow
Saving the world begins with saving yourself. And for me, Angie’s doing just the opposite – she’s saving herself trough the world.

All I Want For Christmas – Katie Holmes Hermes Kelly

Dear Santa, I’ve been good all year long (the years before too) so if you could bring me a handbag would be very nice. To help you, I’ll even give you the name of the handbag so you won’t have any trouble with it: Hermes Kelly.

There’s just one tiny special request I have: that you bring the big one. I mean the BIG one. I’ll even attach pictures of it so you’ll know just what I mean. And pictures of the small one too so you’ll know what not to bring.

Katie Holmes Hermes Kelly Big Hermes Kelly

Dear Santa, you can find the Hermes bag at the Hermes boutiques – I don’t know the price, I only know the price for that other one, the small one – it costs $6.000. The one I want, the big one, if you cannot find it in the boutique, then try Katie Holmes, she has one. Maybe she’d want to give it!
So, Dear Santa, all I want for Christmas is the Extra Big Hermes Kelly as seen on Katie Holmes!

Hermes Kelly Handbag
Update: Thanks to our reader Anna I made peace with Santa who did not answered positively to my demand as written in this special wish letter for Christmas. The simple problem with my demand was a contradiction – the bag I wanted (and to be easily found chez Katie) was the Hermes Birkin, and not the Hermes Kelly as I first wrote. So, Dear Santa, with my excuses to you and to our readers (thanks again, Anna), this post was about the Hermes Birkin Handbag (hereby is a picture of the actual Hermes Kelly handbag).
