“‘And so the lion fell in love with the lamb…,’ he murmured.
I looked away, hiding my eyes as I thrilled to the word.
‘What a stupid lamb,’ I sighed.
‘What a sick, masochistic lion.’”
-Edward and Bella
Stephenie Meyer’s New York Times bestselling book Twilight hits the big screen on November 21, 2008. This addicting saga is aimed at young adults, but is absolutely fascinating and highly entertaining.
The beautiful young cast is featured in the December 2008 issue of InStyle Magazine.
Robert Pattinson: “I don’t want to look trendy, so I try to find clothes where somebody wouldn’t be able to say, ‘Oh, you’re a cool guy. I do like the ‘expensive but disheveled’ thing if I am going out.”
Kristen Stewart: “I feel like a Greek god in this,” Stewart said of the Temperley London gown. “Like Zeus’s wife! The bird is so cool—we had a connection.”
“I love women’s clothes fashioned after men’s clothes,” said Stewart of her Helmut Lang tuxedo jacket and Zac Posen shirt below. “You definitely feel more feminine because you look better in the clothes than the guys do!”
Rachelle Lefevre (below left): “I feel like there is something about having wild hair that makes people assume that I might be fierce and cool,” says Lefevre of her mane. “So I can just let that do all the work and be my regular intimidated self!”
Kellan Lutz (below right): “In the movie, I wear a lot of layers, like a big jacket to look more burly and bear-like,” says Lutz. “I love wearing old-fashioned stuff, like top hats and bow ties and striped suits.”
As New York Fashion Week comes to an end, Zac Posen delivered quite an impressive collection to his favorite celebrities at his Spring 2009 show on September 11, 2008.
Posen’s focus strayed from the tailoring of past years to an airy collection of beautiful dresses with a few minis and suede biker jackets.
I can already see these on the gals of Gossip Girl or on Young Hollywood at future red carpet events. Posen is ever young, fun and flirty!
I love the shape of the leopard print and blue stone dresses below.
I just happened to pop on iTunesUSA tonight and noticed that Jonas Brothers are holding the top song spot with their newest single Tonight.
Tonight was just released yesterday on July 29, 2008 and after just 24 hours, there are already well over 2,650 reviews. Wow!
Tonight will be on their upcoming LP called A Little Bit Longer set to drop on August 12, 2008.
Their other recently released single, Burnin’ Up is at number 5 on iTunes USA. Pretty impressive.
Watch Burnin’ Up below.
Pretty catchy tunes. Personally, I think the video is a bit silly, but altogether entertaining and a perfect fit for their fans. Their teen fan base certainly loves them. What do YOU think of JB?
These young musicians are also on the upcoming August cover of Rolling Stone Magazine. RS has dubbed them “The Clean Teen Machine.” Love the bit from the article that captures a few brief moments before JB hits the stage for a live concert in Phoenix.
Nick, 15, Joe, 18, and Kevin, 20 — are preparing to start their show. All three boys stand less than five-feet-ten, and each possesses a fantastic mane of dark-brown hair. Joe’s hair is ironed flat. Kevin used to flat-iron his, but now it’s curly again, and he’s got thick sideburns; Nick, the brothers’ chief songwriter and leader, has always kept the curls. Under Nick’s fitted brown linen suit is an insulin pump, adhered to his lower back. Nick was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in 2005 and must carefully monitor his blood-sugar levels; the band’s mammoth bodyguard, Big Rob, carries an insulin shot at all times in case of an emergency.
The backstage hallway quickly fills with members of the extended Jonas family. The group forms a circle and clasps hands. “Two quick things,” Kevin Sr. says. “We brought four people from the grass all the way to the front row tonight, so they’re pretty excited.” This is a Jonas norm — plucking die-hards from the nosebleeds and giving them the best seats in the house. Kevin Sr. tells the band to look out for a girl’s softball team that just had a 13-year-old teammate killed in an ATV accident. “They’re right at the end of the catwalk,” he says. “One of them is wearing the shirt the girl was going to wear tonight.”
Kevin Sr. dips his head in prayer. “Heavenly father, we just pray that you’ll bless us this time, let it be fun and safe and exciting,” he says. “Thank you for all the people that are here. We were at 60 percent just a week ago, and it looks full. Lord, we just pray that every person will be encouraged in Jesus’ name.”
The band members and crew holler. “Bring it in!” they shout. Hands are joined and raised to the ceiling.
“Livin’ the dream!” they yell.
They certainly are “livin’ the dream.” The full article can be read online here.
19-year-old, High School Musical sweetheart, Vanessa Hudgens is part of the hottest group in Young Hollywood today. She is best known and loved by her fans for her role in HSM as Gabriella Montez and as girlfriend to Zac Efron.
Onscreen and in interviews, Vanessa seems like just another young, vivacious, unassuming teen. Surprisingly normal, right? Well, yes, except for the multiple pairs of Christian Louboutins and Balenciaga bags and being stalked incessantly by the paparazzi.
Being in the spotlight can be difficult for some, but V has navigated her way like a seasoned pro. Always beautiful, stylish and cute, this teen has a great sense of style for someone so young. She has made very few (if any) red carpet mistakes
She does not under-dress and she does not over dress. She has the balance just right.
Remember the likes of some other teen starlets who made some notably bad fashion choices.
Open about her love for Christian Louboutin, Balenciaga and chain apparel stores, Urban Outfitters and Free People, V has often described her style as “bohemian chic.” Casual, hip, yet sexy, she knows what to pair for day and night and keeps her accessories to a minimum.
Vanessa has gone from an unknown teen to a style teen queen. I hope her style continues to shine on the red carpet…and to think, this is only the beginning.
Let’s take a look at Vanessa’s fashion transformation over the years.
Upper left: One of the first times Vanessa appeared on the red carpet was for the “Thunderbirds” UK & LA Premiere back in July 2004. She was only 15 then and probably still trying to discover her style, but for her first outing she looks sweet and fresh.
Upper right: Just 2 years later, at a High School Musical event, Vanessa looked mature and glamorous on the red carpet in the Red Twig Wendeline Babydoll dress by DVF.
Upper left: In 2006, at the 21st Annual IMAGEN Awards, Vanessa wore a cute black and gold dress, Eclipse Stripe by Cynthia Rowley.
Upper right: Later that same year at the Teen Choice Awards, she teamed a sexy Dolce & Gabbana dress in fuchsia dress with leopard print shoes.
Above: Possibly my favorite dress, a simple Jay Godfrey frock that is stylish and chic, yet still young and sexy.
