Celebrity Crave: Rihanna Eats KFC and Wears Rocker Jewelry

Labels: , , , , , , , , , , ,

Celebrity Crave

Product placement anyone? Here we have Rihanna dressed edgily-as-ever at a KFC restaurant. Check out those heavy-metal accessories! Seeing these pictures makes my inner punk chick squeal with delight. Well, if punk chicks did that. But they probably don't. So, instead, in the words of Rachel Zoe, "I die!"

Actually, I don't know about the whole outfit. I am a little skeptical on that skirt, and the hat. Mainly, it is the skirt that concerns me. It looks very 90's, and we all know the 90's were a time of frightening fashion. Then again, Halloween is coming! Maybe Ri-Ri was getting a Warriors costume together!

Wanna get the Rihanna-turned-rocker look for yourself? Check out these fiesty picks:

Fashion Match: Daveigh Chase

Labels: , , , , , , ,

Fashion Match

Looks like Daveigh Chase is back on the scene! Who? That girl, you know, sevvven daysss... -- The Ring... Hello!? Anyone know what I'm talking about?

If her name sounds familiar it is because she played Samara, the creepy well-dwelling girl from that horror flick, The Ring! If not, then lets welcome a newbie on the scene. It looks like Daveigh is all grown up now!

Daveigh Chase is starring in a new film called 'S. Darko', which is a continuation to the 2001 cult classic, Donnie Darko. The film is due to be released in 2009, and I can see this girl making a big comeback, or entrance, since she was really too young to be noticed before.

Style-wise, I love this look she wore to the Boost Mobile barbeque! She looks very summery and age-appropriate. To steal this preppy, classic look, check out my recreation using budget friendly items :)

Daveigh Chase's outfit
  • Dobby Tuxedo Shirt in "Poolside Blue" from The Gap ($44.)

  • Hat Attack Toyo Braided Fedora with Blue Ribbon - Bloomingdales (Sale $53.)
What do you think? Would you wear it?

Fashion Match: Cameron Diaz!

Labels: , , , , , , ,

Fashion Match

Cameron Diaz lit up the room in this brightly colored orange dress at Spike TV's 2nd Annual Guys Choice Awards. Its artistic ruffle pattern made the dress visually appealing, and fun but simple accessories kept the focus on her frock.

The only thing I did not like about her look here was that her face appeared a bit washed out. I think her makeup artists should have done a nice bronze smoky eye, brown liner, and maybe a brighter rose or pink lip. She's just looking too pale-faced here for my taste.

Fashion Match - Cameron Diaz

Anyway, here's how I recreated her outfit:
  • B) Keyhole Ruffle Detail Dress in "Orange"
    $82. at ASOS

  • C) R.J. Graziano Enamel Bangles
    $110 at Bloomingdales

  • D) 'Atlantic City' Pump in "Light Pink"
    $80. at Aldo Shoes
What do you think? Would you wear it?

Fashion Match: Nicole Scherzinger!

Labels: , , , , , , ,

Fashion Match

This bright evening look that Nicole Scherzinger wore to the Maxim 2008 Hot 100 Party was sure to turn heads! I wouldn't have expected less, as gorgeous Nicole made #22 on the Hot 100 list last year, by the way.

Her sparkling diamond and black rocker accessories complete the look, which is perfect for an evening of clubbing and dancing. Unfortunately, we can't all spend like celebrities, so I decided to recreate this look using mostly budget-friendly pieces.

Nicole Scherzinger Fashion Match

What I used:
  • A) Off Shoulder Kimono Tunic Mini Dress in "Light Blue"
    $19.99 at Ami Clubwear

  • B) "Kimberly Stewart" Inspired Fingerless Gloves (One Shown)
    $32.72 at ASOS

  • C) Bracelets (1, 2)
    $14.50 and $10.50 at Claire's

  • D) Snakeskin Clutch in "Blue"
    $39. at Bebe

  • E) Metaphor 2 Strand Crystal Rhinestone Pierced Earrings
    $15. at Sears

  • F) Moda Spana Women's 'Karmina' Slingback Pump
    $45. at Endless
So the grand total of this outfit (which probably cost $1,000 or more in designer duds) is a mere $176.71! That's the whole outfit for under $200!

What do you think? Are you a fan of Nicole? Do you like her look? Let me know!
