Celebrating Celebrity “Flaws”: Flat and Fabulous

CC Staff — Thu, 13 May 2010 18:00:56 +0000

Every day we’re bombarded with a million different messages about what we are supposed to look like. And tell you what, our not-so-scientific-yet-totally-accurate visual research proves that 99% of girls out there don’t fit the mold. So instead of telling you how to wear your hair, or how much weight to lose, or which one of Heidi Montag’s many surgeries to get, we’re going to celebrate these so-called beauty flaws with a new weekly series.

This week is all about the A-list celebrities. Nope, not the ones who are all over the red carpet and on the cover of every tabloid. We’re talking about the celebrities who rock an A-cup bra and not only aren’t afraid to show it off, but look damn good doing it. They may not have the perfect shape based on men’s magazines, but they don’t let that get in their way.

Forget cleavage. Today we’re all about the proud women who celebrate being a carpenter’s dream.

Golden Globe Fashion: Our Fave Bits and Pieces

CC Staff — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 13:39:32 +0000

OMG. We didn’t realize how much we loved the Golden Globes until we sat – popcorn and cookies in hand – and watched all the stars strut their stuff on the red carpet last night. There were so many good looking and talented people in one room; we would have given anything (yes, including our extensive bag collection) to be there. Hell, we just want to try on Beyonce’s necklace.

The Red Carpet was fantastic. Fitted dresses were all the rage, highlighted by gorgeous accessories. Cocktail rings were everywhere, along with blingin’ brooches, hair clips and necklaces. And let’s not forget the best (and most prevalent) accessory of all: major cleavage.

Below are a few of our favorite (and most trainwreck-y) bits and pieces from the evening. Sure, the overall looks were breathtaking, but it’s all in the details, right? A little bling here, a little ruffle there. And, of course, Drew Barrymore’s hair. I mean, come on, girlfriend. That hair? Is she auditioning for Hairspray?!

CollegeCandy’s 64 Jews of Hanukkah

CC Staff — Mon, 22 Dec 2008 13:39:42 +0000

Happy Hanukkah, people!

In honor of the eight days of Hanukkah, we decided to do a tribute to our 8 favorite Hanukkah celebrators (also known as Jews). But then we decided that 8 just wasn’t enough; there are too many good ones! So, we upped it to eight Jews for each of the eight days.

Yes, it’s a lot of Jewish, but let’s be real – Hanukkah gets totally ignored this time of year, so we thought it would be nice to give a little shout-out to the people not dreaming of a white Christmas. You know, the ones dreaming of a little Mu Shu on Christmas eve. Click on any of our favorite Jews to see why we love em so much (and why anyone – Jew or non Jew – will love them too!).

Emmy Awards Fashion Classes It Up (For the Most Part)

CC Staff — Mon, 17 Sep 2007 14:24:41 +0000

The Emmy Awards were on last night, and I gotta say the style choices were much better than the sh*t that was on the VMA red carpet, due in part to the lack of pacifiers alone.

My faves?

Katherine Heigl and Ali Larter for the ladies, and, really, most of the guys looked pretty damn good.

But maybe I’m just super bias and dream of having a dirty foursome with the original men of The Daily Show. So what?

But, of course, beyond the glitz, glamor and fabulous bright colors (and shots of PR reps accidentally looking into cameras) this year, there were major fashion mishaps.

What award show wouldn’t be complete without WTF-were-they-thinking touches, such as unnecessary one-boob dresses or confusing frumpiness or crap hairdo’s from the ’50′s? You’d get one pretty disappointing awards show, if you ask me.

Oh and about that foursome? Make it a five-some.

See the red carpet looks after the jump.
