Wham Bam Thank You Stam


At first I didn't even know her name but I was taken by that ferocious red hair, ice cold blue eyes and defiant attitude. Since I first saw her in that BCBG ad I have always followed Jessica Stam and loved her more each season. Now a lovely shade of blonde that looks fabulous with those baby blues I was sooooo delighted to see her in the Vogue cover that'll make history.

Here are some of my favorites looks worn by Stam (who originally wanted to be a dentist) in recent years.

The one that started it all. Jessica Stam for BCBG.


The Marc Jacobs Stam bag (inspired by her of course) is so perfect for winter - can't you just picture it with the softest white cashmere and a steamy Starbucks cappuccino?


I adore grey and that fur hat is to die for! Michael Kors.


One of my favorite looks from Balmain Fall 2007 (yes the broad shoulders are back).


I'm not a big Versace fan but I love this 60's international woman of mystery outfit.


In the cover of Italian Vogue, when are we going to see her alone in US Vogue? She deserves it!

Gossip Girl Update


Well today I'm sad/happy. It turns out my favorite TV detective Veronica Mars is leaving Neptune for good. That's the sad part, the happy part is that she is heading to New York and keeping her habit of keeping tabs on everyone as the mysterious Gossip Girl.

Yes the lovely Kristen Bell is going to be the narrator of what is shaping up to be THE new show to watch: Gossip Girl. I have never been so excited about a show, I sure hope it delivers or I will be so disappointed.

MUST C TV


A long long time ago I started reading the most deliciously addictive book series EVER: Gossip Girl. It feauters the darlings and backstabbers of the Upper East Side of New York and I absolutely ADORE it. Blair Waldorf is one of my favorite characters of all time and just the titles alone are genius (my fave? All I Want Is Everything).

So when I heard that they were going to make a movie with Lindsay Lohan as Blair I said: Uh? But that was dropped and now we have a series! I died when I heard this and when I learned that Josh Schwartz was involved I was so far gone my family ordered a tombstone. But now all is well and I have this fabulous photo to share with you! I specially love Blair -far left - she seems as vicious as ever!
Can't Wait!

Like We Need Another Reason To Worship Vogue


The fashion bible's latest issue has one of the best covers in years! It features the ten new models that could (and should) be super models. The models are wearing white shirts and dresses from The Gap designed by the top three designers of the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Awards: Thakoon, Doo.Ri and Rodarte; and exquisite skirts by the likes of Oscar de la Renta, Giambattista Bali and Carolina Herrera.

At first I was a little sad when I didn't spot one of my favorite models Jessica Stam on the cover but then all was well when I realized it was a foldout and there she was with a darling porcelain-blue long skirt by Carolina Herrera. I'm so excited by this cover! I wish that more models would appear on the cover instead of celebrities. Like the brilliant article on the inside says, the fashion world needs its own superstars.

To pick a favorite outfit would be an impossible feat, I loved all the shades of blue, but if I absolutely had to choose it would be Raquel Zimmermann (in the right ladder with a capri-blue evening skirt); the way they styled the white dress is fabulous.

Go buy one for everyone you know!

Gwen's New Vid

We have the new video for Gwen Stefani's 4 In The Morning, one of the best songs from her album The Sweet Escape. We hope that the new single is Yummy because that song is poppin' (it's poppin'? it's poppin'! . . . sorry having a Lil' Mama Moment).

Best Look: We like the shirt-dress but we love the shirt and tie outfit, so chic!

Top Model Graces Topshop


My favourite favourite London shop TOPSHOP had an idea: why not have someone famous design a collection for us? EVERYONE is doing it: Target, Gap, H&M, Reebok, etc...

But then they had an even better idea: Why not Kate Moss? A total style icon and queen of London fashion- just as Topshop. It's a match made in heaven if there ever was one.

But then Kate had the best idea ever: why not model the clothes herself at a display window come opening day? A superb scheme! Of course it was packed up to here but nobody cared. And after seeing Moss the fans could go, in turns, to buy the clothes – but only five per costumer.

The 90-piece collection will make its debut next week at one of my favorite american stores next week: Barneys New York. We'll see how that goes.

Kelly Clarkson's New Vid

I must admit that I wasn't crazy about Kelly's new song Never Again but I did like the video. And although I'm not that sure if she can pull off the whole 80's white suit and earrings she gets points for trying. What do you think?
