Go Tennis With Pink Chanel Racket And Balls

Tennis is, for me, the sport par excellence. Karl isn’t keen on sports, but is the King snob specialist of all snobs.

I don’t know what kind of racket this is and if indeed it’s a masterpiece, technically speaking. It’s carbon fiber, like her black sister, but besides being neon pink, it got an offspring – the white and pink Chanel tagged tennis balls. Judging by the price of her sister ($255), we could only hope it justifies the gap between a normal (great tennis racquet) $70 and a pink stylish $ two hundred and something. Then again, what’s the use of playing tennis if you can’t brag about your Chanel?

That supermodels frenzy got me thinking about Helena Christensen. Why? Simply because we don’t get to see her much since she passed on the other side of the lens…

Ever since she turn photographer, the 39 years old beauty seems to be even more attractive to the public eye just because she’s not the one being photographed anymore. She’s taking pictures. From her musical life to her Danish beauty, Helena seems the same girl who played Wicked Game. Spending her days from one town to another, she still has time to enjoy her son and think about how accomplished she feels as an independent woman, torn from traditional boundaries (why does she sound like a bitter old lady who just didn’t found her perfect match and she lies herself that spending her life with ten cats is just heaven?) Here she goes in GQ September, for your eyes’ delight. Isn’t she gorgeous? (more pictures after the jump)

Because the internet in its vastitude has so many style aspects and so many fashion escapees, I decided it was about time I got you some blogosphere random reading. Randomly handpicked and thoroughly verified, these are the midweek’s titles that should steal your attention for several minutes.

Let’s not waste any more time and get down to the blogosphere blogaround:
If you’re thinking about a getaway (I know, the long weekend is gone, but never know!), do give it a stylish thought with Bonnie and Clyde.
…or maybe you should consider some very special swimsuits?

And if you’re not on the run nor on the swim projects, you’d better be aware to not combine all the tartan there is just to get a D & G fall overlook!
If your clothes suddenly are too big for you, there’s always a solution for a stylish wear.
Either way, don’t forget to bring your comfy shoes, comfort doesn’t always equals ugly or styleless!
Add a pinch of fabulous fall beauty for this perfect getaway with this season’s latest trick: goth makeup.

If none of the above is interesting enough for you, maybe a sip of tea in Tokyo sounds more appealing!
And just to round it all up with a question – would the nineties invade the sidewalks just like they did the ad campaigns?

Marilyn. The neverending fascination around her and her life is stirred again with 586 unseen belongings of the blond legend.

Balancing between letters, receipts and Monroe’s will, those who are fascinated by Marilyn can find more and more reasons to love and respect her because it was proven (reading the letters she wrote to fans, colleagues, relatives, friends) that she was a witty and courteous person. Her schedule wasn’t helpful in maintaining close correspondences but she did manage all from her personal life to her employees. Who was Marilyn, after all and why did she died on us all of a sudden? Will a bunch of objects explain her to us? (don’t miss the exclusive video after the jump)

Natalie Portman surely knows smart advertising when it comes to her Te Casan Collection. She chose for the Venice Film Festival a pair of satin pumps with chiffon pompom called Plath from the Te Casan By Natalie Portman Collection ($395).

The perfect match for the chiffon pompom? Another Rodarte dress. I’m having the same torn-deja-vu when looking at this black ensemble. It’s like she’s having Amidala style reminiscence and she’s daring the Red Carpet with edgy designs. There’s something so anti Hollywood about Natalie that makes me love her the instant I see her makeupless and hairstyleless appearance on the Red Carpet. She looks so fresh and smart! Do you like her Venice Rodarte-Te Casan outfit?

When I saw Claire Danes in Stardust I was most amazed (not necessarily because of Claire’s acting skills but because the movie had a lovely story and close to heart characters).

The Venice Film Festival Red Carpet was the perfect opportunity for miss Danes to wear one of her costumes for Stardust. Or her grandmother’s priceless vintage window curtain. Or whatever, she looks like ballerina girl meet shower curtain. And let’s not overlook the perfect tan. I guess if she would’ve played it natural bare skin, we wouldn’t have seen the difference between her gorgeous curtain.. ahem Valentino dress and her skin. Now just asking… on the side… if the dress is mainly gold accented, couldn’t she at least coordinate the sandals instead of wearing those silver ones?

(I’m sincerely beginning to enjoy this!) I imagine there’s some secret service in the Cruise scientostarship of life to evaluate every day’s internet activity on the Cruise-Holmes family. If this is the case (and why wouldn’t it? There’s someone on the Kaiser’s payroll with sole mission to take care and improve its iPods), then Katie’s got word that her Chloe Paraty Black Python not only was ugly beyond compare, but was also worn by Charlize Theron.

So she decided to change. She got herself an even uglier bag – the Fendi Secret Code hoping no one would follow. Right she was! No one did! Except for the shoes! She got herself a glorious pair of Roger Vivier buckled blue shoes. The thing is… Charlize got her Roger Vivier (sandals, true enough) to Venice, on the Film Festival’s Red Carpet. Twice! What next? (you can see Charlize’s Roger Vivier Red Carpet sandals with the matching outfit right after the jump)

It’s not easy to be original (we’re talking style, fashion, of course). And if you thought being rich makes it somehow easier, don’t! Here’s the perfect proof:

Katie Holmes has a strong manifested obsession with the Chloé Paraty Bag in black Python. I know I came with the Fendi Secret Code Bag just the day before, but can we add this Chloe and make a solid assumption that Katie’s bag style is definitely going for the flop? (not that her overall style was somewhat at the top). In case you were asking if it’s more of an expensive (around $ 4,000) exotic obsession (since she’s only carrying snake skin), I’d say it’s just a costing fashion faux pas. Or at least that’s what I thought up until I saw Charlize Theron with the same Chloe Paraty Bag, only in white. Bad taste is viral? (you can admire Katie and her everyday Chloé Paraty Back Python Bag right after the jump)
