Daphne Guinness, LaChapelle Do Harper’s Bazaar China December 2012

Now that Lady Gaga is followed around her world tour by empty seats, we turn to the only true fashion eccentric: Daphne Guinness. It’s time for a bow as the bold & untamed heiress is teaming up with David LaChapelle for an amazing pictorial. Strange but amazing nonetheless!

Harper’s Bazaar China December 2012 glows in shades of fuchsia and deep cobalt blue with a – what else – McQueen dressed Daphne Guinness on the cover. But wait till you see the inside pictorial styled by Daphne herself! (hit the jump for more, click here for the gallery!)

While being happy for Kate Middleton… ahem Duchess of Cambridge feeling better and attending official events, I still keep true to my baby bump following passion (wink). Dressed in a maxi green dress from Alexander McQueen, thus honoring Sarah Burton’s most treasured wish – to dress the Duchess during her pregnancy – Catherine Middleton was as flawless as ever!

Despite her acute morning sickness (which, in my experience should happen around the 4th month of pregnancy), the Duchess looked amazing, showing almost no sign of pregnancy (aka – no sign of the infamous baby bump). As reported by US Magazine, Kate presented the BBC’s Sports Personality of the Year 2012 Awards, Sunday, December 16th, alongside David Beckham. (after the jump, you can see a video from the festive night, freely admiring Kate’s official stage duty)

Undoubtedly an amazing comedian, Martin Short is the voice behind PBS Kids The Cat In the Hat show for a couple of years already. (ask your kids, like I did – wink – cause otherwise I wouldn’t understand the cat picture)

I just discovered one more reason to like Vanity Fair’s January 2013 issue, the comedy special guest edited by Judd Apatow! Martin Short, surrounded by an army of cats, enjoying a cup of milk (more like ‘sharing’ than enjoying, actually) and the morning paper. Pajamas & kitchen shots make this Season’s delight! And images like the one photographed by Sam Jones here, make Vanity Fair’s January 2013 issue, a great one! (there’s an entire story in VF, here)

One of my favorite brands, Oliver Peoples just released their 25th anniversary Spring Summer 2013 ad campaign, Stage 9. And, as always, the video commercial is a visual feast. Not just because I get to see some of the new sunglasses models they’re proposing for the next season, but also because they always manage to find amazing people to play in their marketing initiatives.

This time it’s Ray Liotta and Bar Paly. Though we haven’t seen him in a while, Ray’s imdb profile looks pretty busy for 2013 (5 projects coming up and 4 others just wrapped up this year). As for Bar Paly – although an actress herself – didn’t look familiar at all (she starred in an episode of HIMYM and a few other less significant titles like The Ruins, Stiletto). Back to the Oliver Peoples commercial now: more details and the video commercial right after the jump!

Besides Kristen Stewart who’s braving the endless cohorts of fashion snobs and style soldiers by wearing sneakers on the Red Carpet, pairing trainers / sneakers with formal wear can still work some wardrobe magic? Yes! Undoubtedly so!

After all the years we spent together reviewing so many more or less official looks, all the Red Carpet glamour, all the unspeakable, unmentionable glory of Ugg boots or velour tracksuit pants we’ve whispered here, I learned one valuable lesson: fashion is nothing unless you’re doing it in style. And style is meaningless unless it’s impregnated with your unique personality. (the story continues after the jump!)

Last we heard about Zoe Saldana and her projects, she was under heavy fire for taking that role as Nina Simone in the legendary singer’s biopic movie. But recently surfaced images of lovely Zoe Saldana detect a noticeable bump under her belt. And not just on one occasion!

She was photographed dressed up at official events and dressed down, walking out and about town. What looked like Zoe Saldana’s baby bump was there still. What may happen here that wouldn’t necessarily mean she’s carrying Bradley Cooper’s child: that Zoe might have put on some weight for her role as Nina Simone. (the story continues after the jump; if you’re looking for more images showing the alleged baby bump, check out the gallery, here!)

You know, everyone usually concentrates on the ladies wardrobe. Especially for official events. The glitzy dresses, the sparkling shoes, the blinding blingies. But what about the men, huh? While not everyone out there is tuxed up in Tom Ford, something has to be done about the men walking the Red Carpet! Something needs to be said about what they’re wearing! (especially if they’re wearing it well!)

Why am I ranting about men on the Red Carpet when I personally barely write about men? (but that all to personal, you know I only have eyes for my Adored Husband! wink) Here’s why: Hugh Jackman showed up at the festivities of inauguration of his Hollywood Walk of Fame star wearing a gorgeous pair of brown suede shoes. High top, all buckled up, all contrasting but matching his blue suit. (take a closer look in the gallery, here!)

While the fund raising event held last night at Madison Square Garden for those who were affected by hurricane Sandy was deemed a total success, 12-12-12 spawned yet another viral moment via Twitter. And all that – again – was jumpstarted by Kanye West and his stage doings.

Or outfits. This time, at least. Kanye West showed up for his stage performance wearing a hooded black long sleeved shirt and a black leather skirt over black leather leggings. Yes, you’re reading that right! Skirt and leggings. On Kanye West. On Stage. I thought he was supposed to style his girlfriend (for the record – that’s Kim Kardashian), not the other way around. So why do you think he chose a skirt?
