Jessica Alba has totally become one of my fashion muses. Her love of bright colors, flattering silhouettes and awesome versatile pieces has cemented her place as one of my fave celeb fashionistas. I’m particularly obsessed with one of her recent ensembles because of its vibrancy and interesting color scheme. Read More »

Did you watch the Golden Globes last night? I did, and it really made me wish that I was a celebrity. A bunch of really beautiful people got together in gorgeous evening wear, drank champagne and gave out shiny little statues. Sounds great, right? Luckily the celebs had their phones out and were tweeting the night away!

There are some celebs who shouldn’t be famous at all and constantly get horrible things written about them because they have no talent or skills, so they shouldn’t be all over magazines and television (I’m looking at you, Kardashians). Then there are some celebs who have talent and used it to make themselves famous, but now they don’t really do anything with that talent, and they are STILL famous. While this isn’t as bad as the first category of celebs like Paris Hilton and Audrina Patridge, it’s still pretty annoying because these celebs used to be really good at what they did. Read More »

I truly don’t understand why the paparazzi still snaps photos of Jessica Alba out and about. She hasn’t done any high-profile acting projects, she’s still married and, as far as I can tell, she seems perfectly content to raise her kids and be ridiculously gorgeous. Sweet life, but not terribly exciting. That said, I do love her style. It’s sophisticated, fun and accessible.

When I go to class at 8 a.m. wearing no makeup, I don’t look good. It’s not fair that some celebrities look amazing even without makeup. They get to be a celebrity!

Why do they get to look good with no makeup on?? I’m so jealous. And I want you to be jealous too. So here, just take a look.

Celebrities are notorious for going all-out on costumes for parties. So by the time  Halloween rolls around, it’s game on. They get seriously extravagant. They have money to burn so they get crazy. I love watching celebs dress up in clever costumes versus getting super slutty sexified. It’s a nice change to see that they have a sense of humor instead of just showing their assets.

I can’t wait to see what they’ll come up with this year. We’ve rounded up some of our favorite celebrity Halloween costumes for your enjoyment… Read More »

Plenty of young celebrities choose to earn a college degree just in case no one thinks they’re hot or wants to buy their album when they’re 45 and practically falling apart (thanks to a life of plastic surgery). Emma Watson, Hilary Duff, Dylan and Cole Sprouse — the list goes on and on. Honestly, it’s a smart decision, good for them.

But, see, there’s a difference between Emma Watson and Jessica Simpson, am I right? Emma’s cool British charm and her extensive knowledge of (fictional) magic make her the perfect candidate for an Ivy League school, but Jessica Simpson? I’m pretty sure you have to know the difference between chicken and tuna in order to get into college.

Regardless, Simpson, Alba (who knew they were friends?) and their husbands took a tour of this university’s campus yesterday. While there’s been no confirmation on whether they have plans to attend the school, they’re seriously the last two people on this planet who should be even considering applying to this school.

Okay, fine, Alba’s not bad, she could probably handle it, but Simpson? Seriously, can you imagine having Jessica Simpson as a roommate? Aside from bursting into an emotional drunken fit whenever someone decides to blast their 98 Degrees old-school playlist, Simpson would be that chick who asks the most ridiculous, stupid, irrelevant questions in class and that girl who might as well not even have a laptop since she doesn’t even know how to turn it on. Basically, she would be the one who you would have to assume had really, rich parents who built a library on campus.

I wear push-up bras and high heels. I go gaga for lip gloss and lipstick, nail polish, and heavy eye-make up . And I’m not even going to lie, I’m a sucker for pouty boys that call me ma’am. But besides my affinity for sundresses, pearls, and men in ties, I’m a feminist. In fact, I’ve always considered myself to be one. But despite my own declaration in the fight for gender equality, this doesn’t seem possible to people.

“How can you be a feminist?” I’m asked all the time. “Do you even know what that means?”

While feminism can mean different things to different people, I’ve often felt like I didn’t fit the mold — like I wasn’t the ideal. Like I couldn’t claim it. And then it hit me: Feminism can be whatever you need it to be. And sometimes, what you need it to be will change from time to time.

This powerful realization hit me as an 18-year-old young woman sitting in on my first Women’s Studies class at a small, private, all-women university. This moment of feminist clarity has always stuck with me, and now as a 23-year-old post-grad, I am constantly revisiting feminism and its applicability in my ever changing life. Although feminism, even in 2011, often still sounds like a dirty word with a negative connotation, I’m constantly surprised at the way feminism finds itself in my day to day life — it really does come in all shapes, sizes, issues, prospects, and in all kinds of different people. And despite being so diverse and so varying from time to time, I’m still relieved that I can make feminism something all my own.
