Madonna Looks Super In Love With Boyfriend At Swanky NYC Party!

 

 

Madonna shocked party-goers when she showed up to the after party for the premiere of ‘The Skin I Live In’ — and she spent the entire night talking intimately with her 24-year-old boyfriend Brahim Zaibat!

Madonna is arguably the most famous person on the planet, so you can imagine the gasps as she walked into NYC’s newly re-opened The Double Seven on Oct. 13 looking better than ever. HollywoodLife.com attended the premiere hosted by The Cinema Society & DeLeón Tequila and we can tell you that you could hear a pin drop when Madonna, 53, made her way through the celebrity packed venue to surprise her long-time friend and world renowned director Pedro Almodovar at his party.

Madonna spent the evening at Pedro’s private table with her boyfriend Brahim, and good girlfriend Debbie Mazar. Also at the table was actress Lisa Bonet and husband Jason Momoa who flew in from LA specifically for the event and were also coincidentally celebrating their five-year wedding anniversary.

We can tell you Madonna was beaming! She was laughing and hugging her friends as they came up to greet her at the table. But the best part of the night was seeing how happy she was with her boyfriend Brahim. They looked deep in conversation at several points and Madonna couldn’t have looked more enthralled.

Madonna didn’t make it to the actual screening, but we’re assuming she did something with her daughterLourdes, who celebrated her 15th birthday that day!

Between the film’s star Antonio Banderas and designers Marc Jacobs, Oscar de la Renta, Calvin Klein, Nicole Miller and celebrities Rufus Wainwright, Lisa Bonet, and Debbie Harry — it was by far the the most exclusive A-list party this city has seen in months!

It’s Official: Robsten is a Thing

ATTENTION, PLEASE: Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson are dating!

Are you thinking “DUH” right about now? Kristen thinks you should be too! She just confirmed the relationship for the first time ever (she casually called Rob her boyfriend in a recent interview), but she doesn’t think it’s breaking news.

“So much of my life is so easily Googled,” she said of the big announcement. “I mean, it’s like, ‘Come on, guys! It’s so obvious!’ I don’t think you realize what a big deal it is for people.”

 

So why has K-Stew been so tight-lipped about the relationship up until now? She says it’s a matter of being selfish – but in a really understandable way.

“It’s just one of those things. I’m selfish. I’m like, ‘That’s mine!’” she explained.“And I like to keep whatever is mine remaining that way. It’s a funny little game to play, and it’s a slippery slope. I always say to myself I’m never going to give anything away, because there’s never any point or benefit for me.”

How long have you…erm, suspected that Rob and Kristen were in love offscreen too? Tell us in the comments.

LACK OF SLEEP MAKES YOUR BEAUTY UGLY

To look your best for parties and celebrations you don’t need expensive salon treatments or creams, you just need a good night’s sleep! You will look healthier, have brighter sparkling eyes and you will also look prettier! If you get sufficient rest, that you literally become more beautiful!

Beauty Sleep: Solid Science

Beauty sleep is no longer an old woman’s superstition but is now a solid fact supported by science. A group of Swedish scientists studied 23 volunteers all of whom were between 18 and 31 years of age and were healthy.

These volunteers were all photographed twice: once after they had had sufficient rest and sleep for eight hours, and then once when they had been sleep deprived. On the second occasion, they were kept awake for 31 hours after they had slept for only 5 hours.

Nobody wore make-up and all of them were allowed exactly the same grooming, shaving. They were then asked to keep neutral expressions on their faces and look relaxed while they were being photographed.

These photographs were then shown to sixty-five people. These people had not been trained for the exercise and were told to give their subjective opinions about the photographs. All the photos were rated according to factors like attractiveness, healthy appearance and tiredness. The participants were asked to rate the images according to their own perceptions only i.e. there was no right or wrong answer.

Would You Buy Your Wedding Dress At Costco? The Nation Stands Divided:

‘Scuse us, but we’ve always had a pre-economic slowdown vision of bridal dress shopping—girlfriends and family at a satin-filled boutique sipping Champagne and laughing, smiling, and crying as the bride-to-be gets closer and closer to the gown that is The One. 

But times being what they are, maybe Costco has the right idea with its new pilot bridal boutique program in California (see video below) that brings the most intimate kind of shopping to big-box retail.

Smart cookies that they are, The Gloss, put the whole project to an online vote and, to our surprise, it was a wash – about 41 percent say they wouldn’t mind grabbing their gown where they can also get granola bars by the 1,000 pack, and 42 percent said no way while also copping to being snobs.

What’s your personal take? Remember that Costco also sells booze and all manner of reception goodies in bulk.

Sheer madness: Kelly Brook makes the ultimate fashion

She’s usually considered a style icon who rarely puts a foot wrong in the fashion stakes.

But yesterday Kelly Brook committed the ultimate fashion faux pas when she stepped out in sheer leggings which left nothing to the imagination for a shopping trip in Los Angeles.

The 31-year-old star teamed the navy leggings with a tight pink striped top and a pair of Reeboktrainers as she stopped for tacos at Poquito Mas in West Hollywood.

And while the model luckily has a figure to be proud of, the outfit still wasn’t the most flattering choice for the Kent-born star – highlighting her curvy body and shapely rear.

Kelly recently relocated to Los Angeles to pursue her acting career after appearing in movies including Piranha 3D and a cameo appearance in hit UK TV show Skins this year.

She is thought to have signed up to star in new comedy/horror movie Burn Off, alongside Reservoir Dogs star Michael Madsen.

However, the model is finding the paparazzi in LA difficult to deal with and recently took to her Twitter page to lament the fact she is also photographed when she is least expecting it.

She wrote: ‘Today put on a full face of make up and wore heels, Not one pap in sight!

‘Why do they always get me looking dog rough. It’s like they know!!’

But, in between meetings to further her career, Kelly has been keeping in shape by hitting the gym hard in a bid to maintain her enviable figure.

Kelly is also concentrating on her personal life, having recently started to date former rugby player Thom Evans.

And, while the relationship is still in it’s early stages, Kelly is said to be thrilled with the way things are going and believes there’s a strong future for the pair.

A friend said: ‘Thom is completely head over heels for Kelly.

‘He has moved to LA where he’s started acting classes.

‘Kelly is making LA her home and Thom knew if the relationship was to stand a chance he needed to be out there with her. She is overjoyed that Thom made the trip.

Angelina Jolie in her own league amidst Celebrities Style

Angelina Jolie has the type of beauty that knows no bounds and the type of style that stands out in celebrities’ style; and there is no limit to the admiration she gathers amidst various celebrities’ style. Everything about her, from her jet-black hair and famously full lips to her tomboyish and tattooed style seems to celebrate extremes of celebrities’ style. If you love her brazen beauty and unique style that shines in all celebrities’ style as much as we do then follow these simple steps of celebrities style to make this look your own.

STEP 1 to acquire celebrities’ style: A big part of this celebrities style look is the clean, classic shape of Angelina’s eyebrows. So before apply your makeup to make your eyebrows look sharp.
STEP 2 to acquire celebrities’ style: Use a concealer brush to apply a cream concealer under the eye and on the eyelid. Using your fingertips, blend well using a tapping motion. Apply foundation only where needed to even out redness or conceal any imperfections. To apply the foundation use your fingers and the same tapping motion you used to apply theconcealer. If your skin is in good shape, you can skip the foundation. This should give you the smooth look that is essential to celebrities’ style. 

TEP 3 to acquire celebrities’ style: Dab a makeup sponge into loose powder and use it to lightly pat the t-zone and the area around the eyes to control shine and set the concealer. A sponge actually gives a finer application than a powder puff. This will help prevent the powder from settling into fine lines and creating an unpleasant look. This is a good technique for mature skin and also to be in sync withcelebrities’ style.

Faux Leather and Knit Legging

 seen on Sep 08 2011 in New York, NY. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen were photographed posing on the pink carpet of the JCPenney / People StyleWatch 'Miss for a Must' Event in NYC on September 8, rocking similar yet completely different looks as they pouted for the cameras. Starting with MK, she slipped into a pair of leather trousers (similar to Lauren Conrad below - for a similar pair, try Yoana Baraschi's Faux Leather and Knit Legging in Black) and then wore an oversized black blazer (try Tibi's Velveteen Blazer in Black) and a pair of brown and black patterned booties. Ashley, on the other hand, opted for a for a metallic silk dress (for something a tad shorter, check out Aaron Ashe's Abbey Road Dress in Metallic) under a blazer similar to Mary-Kate's (for another option, try Nanette Lepore's Le Smoking Jacket in Black). 

From there, a sleek hairstyle and printed pumps completed her look. Who do you think got it right here, MK or A? While it was a given that the twins would be spotted left and right at New York Fashion Week, it came as a surprise (actually, not a HUGE surprise) that Mary-Kate is not a fan of Lindsay Lohan. At the V Magazine bash - yes, the one where Lohan now infamously threw a drink at the VMary-Kate immediately asked the hostess to find her a different table, but there wasn't anything open. She looked so upset about her seat and kept looking over at Lindsay. Then, MKO was overheard saying 'I really don't want to be here right now.'" Ha! But let's get real, if I were Mary-Kate I wouldn't be too excited to have La Lohan that close to me either! photographer - a source says that MK "flipped" when she was seated at a table across from Linds. Says an insider: "

Nail colour trends for spring 2011

If you keep the preposterous world records aside, a set of beautified digits has its own charm. It’s always a tricky story with grooming nails, because they can never be camouflaged; they’re either gorgeous or repulsive. Whether you’re shaking hands, typing frantically on a keyboard or clasping a martini glass, the nails will always be glaring at you. This neglected beauty ritual deserves some attention and we’re here to save the day, or your nails.

From grooming tips to top colours for spring 2011, Fashionising.com has it covered. And if you have a flashy pair of leather gloves sitting by your side, we urge you to ignore them because they will eventually come off, and you will regret not continuing to read after the jump. Keep the nail buffer handy.

Nail colours for spring / summer 2011

For those fashionisers for whom the sun is currently spring / summer 2011 is still on the way, a spring nail colour is both a pick-me-up and the perfect compliment to any warm-weather outfit. Here are the top colour picks for the season.

Blue

Possessing pop-art feel that transcends vintage de jure, blue nails are refreshing and fun. There are also plenty of shades to pick your favourite from.
Hot colours: Shades of denim, gemstone cobalt, and turquoise

Poppy orange

A bright orange, coral or peachy-pink on the fingernails will instantly transport you to a tropical destination. Imagine a white ruffle bikini, a punchy cocktail and equally perky fingernails.
Hot colours: Soft peach, mandarin, all shades of coral

 

Pink

Ignore all you’re-being-too-girly looks and be daring. Paint your hand digits and tootsies the same pink. Pink nailpolish on toes, in particular, look stunning.
Hot colours: Striking pink, strawberry gelato shades

Yellow

won’t make your fingernails look like bananas; neither will it mock the sunshine. Wear this unusual shade with lacy-white dresses or team with clashing accessories.
Hot colours: Sunshine yellow, melon and lemon shades.

Green

At least in the beauty world, green is no longer associated with bacterial fungi. This envious shade is best worn on shorter (groomed) fingernails.
Hot colours: Deep leafy green, Green grapes.

                     Purple

An alternative to black, purple adds drama to the nails without being boring. The darker hues will glisten when you step out in the sun.
Hot colours: Metallic purple, soft lilac, matte eggplant purple. 

                        

 

Red

Every skin tone can pull-off red nails. It magically even works if you’re having a bad-nail-day.
Hot colours: All shades of red. Opt for lacquers with a glossy finish for this shade.

I Didn't Lie About Selling Skinnygirl for $120 Million

Okay, don't actually drop out of college or anything. It's actually really important. Stay in school, kids.

But reality star Bethenny Frankel has certainly used her Real Housewives fame to her advantage. The star of the Real Housewives of New York sold her Skinnygirl Brand to Fortune Brands for $8 million. Or $100 million. Or $120. Okay, let me explain.

It was originally reported that Frankel made $100 million in the deal, as announced by Forbes Magazine. Though, to be fair, they did report that it was an "estimated" amount. Couple digits off, though. Other media outlets suggested the sum was as high as $120 million.

SELECT STYLES FROM SPRING 2012 COLLECTION

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) 

Luichiny, designer of exclusive footwear for the trendsetting fashionista, is proud to introduce their Spring 2012 Collection, which they debuted at MAGIC’s Platform Shoe Show in Las Vegas, NV in September. The immensely positive feedback from buyers and shoe industry insiders points to Luichiny having one of its strongest seasons on record!

Luichiny’s Spring 2012 collection introduces sexy heels in boldly saturated colors such as of cadet blue, marigold, magenta, red, emerald green and winter white. The way they pair the shades in their color-blocked selections puts a fresh spin on the “mod” feel. As far as design shapes and silhouettes, the new collection incorporates tapered towers, bohemian inspired cork and rope wedges, classic Mary-Janes and sky-high architecturally solid platform pumps embellished with girly bows and metal studs. No detail is overlooked, down to the slightly upturned profile of the toe, the fact that the fabric covers the buckles and closures, and the metallic paint that glazes the cork on some of the sexier styles.

What fashion-forward girl doesn’t want to rock the town in the towering ankle strap platform pumps shown below paired with mod opaque colored tights and an A-line (a la Twiggy), or the tall wedges peeking out from beneath a pair of 70’s-chic bell-bottom rocker trousers (a la Joan Jett)?? There are also flats for the chic city girl, snakeskin for the racy girl’s date night, woven raffia for a natural feel, and even bridal, red carpet or evening wear apropos styles!

Never one to leave any sizzling trend unaddressed, Luichiny hit the following trends and more head-on, and would be perfect for features about any of the following: Animal magnetism, fun fresh prints, metal embellishments, color and so many more.

Not only does Luichiny get a fashionista’s heart racing, they also have love built right in. Luichiny’s signature heart logo is printed on the soles of every shoe — “From our heart to your sole”.

Most recently, Luichiny Shoes has teamed up with Angela and Amber Cope, “The Cope Twins” from NASCAR, for their 2012 ad campaign and other co-marketing initiatives over the next 6 months.

The girls are bringing new sponsors to NASCAR racing to help bring in new fans every day. “I think where Amber and I are at and where Horizon Sports Management is at, it’s all about bringing in non-traditional sponsors and NASCAR needs it…..Things like beauty, health and wellness; all of those things that you don’t see in every day NASCAR. That’s kind of what we’re bringing in,” said Angela.

The Cope twins just finished shooting the Spring 2012 Luichiny ad campaign featuring the hottest new shoe styles from the Collection. Luichiny’s logo is currently featured on Angela Cope’s car and will be showcased throughout the rest of the NASCAR Season including races in California, Kansas, and Florida.

Courtney Stodden, 17, Banned from Facebook for "Sexy" Shots

Facebook just gave Courtney Stodden a big "dislike."

The 17-year-old wife of Lost star Doug Hutchinson (who is 51) was recently kicked off of the social networking site for alleged "inappropriate sexual content." Both Stodden as well as her fan pages have been yanked from Facebook.

Stodden mom's Krista Keller charges that the controversial teen was unfairly booted, and claims none of Stodden's online photos were nude or otherwise explicit.

"It's the jealousy from the women towards her," Keller told E! News. "The men love her, the women hate her. The women report the photo because it's so easy to do. You just click a button. They think she's too sexy, they all report her together, and it's done."

"There is nothing on her page you wouldn't find anywhere on Facebook!" Keller argued. "She has never done any nudity. Not a breast, not even a butt cheek. It's just her in a bathing suit!"

With their 34-year age difference, Stodden and Green Mile star Hutchinson were an internet sensation over the summer when they got hitched. The couple insisted they were not physically intimate until after their wedding.

"I was a virgin," Stodden told Good Morning America in July. "I knew that if I kept that, I would be blessed with a beautiful gift. And God did! He blessed me with my soulmate."
