[Celebrities get paid to look good and serve as a style guide to all us common folk, and part of looking good is flaunting their totally awesome fashion sense. Each week, I will be highlighting my Style Idol of the week: a celebrity who consistently shows keen fashion sense and whose closet I would raid in a heartbeat.
Of course, no celebs are immune to the occasional “what the hell were they thinking?” moment, but for the most part, these celebs look foxy and fabulous and inspire us all to do the same.]
She is known for her teeny frame, perfect pout, oversized sunglasses and some of the hottest arm-candy on the planet: David Beckham. Victoria Beckham, AKA Posh Spice, is definitely a style icon of our era. Her style causes a stir everywhere she goes and women around the world try to mimic her look, from her towering heels to her ultra-short hems. Even her ever-changing hairstyle makes front page news, leading women to rush to their hairstylists to get the latest “Posh.”
Her style varies often and Posh does everything from putting her own touch on classic styles to wearing innovative pieces that other people wouldn’t dare to try off the runway. She breaks fashion rules (like matchy-matchy accessories), sets new trends, and even has her own denim line (DVB: Denim by Victoria Beckham). Whether strutting her stuff in mini skirts and Christian Louboutins or jeans, military jackets, and boots, Victoria looks nothing short of fierce and she’s certainly an inspiration to all fashionistas out there.

I think it’s pretty safe to say that nothing looks hotter on a woman than a sexy pair of boots. It’s also safe to say that nothing makes your feet burn/ache/make you want to cry more than a sexy pair of boots. Which is why we have flats, thankyouverymuch.
So, can we talk for a moment about Victoria Beckham’s most recent sexy boot purchase? As if they couldn’t get even more uncomfortable, Posh went and had a pair of boots especially designed for her…without a heel.
How does she walk? Why would anyone want a pair of shoes with no heel? Does the lack of heel make her look hotter? And beyond the whole heel sitch, don’t these things look more like latex pants than a pair of boots?
Silly me; I thought the only woman who could walk around on her tip toes all day was Barbie and her permanently molded-for-high-heels feet. I should have known that if anyone would be a real-life Barbie, it would be Posh Spice.
So, what do you think? Love em? Hate em? Just don’t quite understand em?

Okay, well, they’re the hottest for now, since we all know how quickly things can change. If I had to make this list a couple of years ago, Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillipe (ohhh, RP, how I lust after you) would have been on for sure. And if I wrote this a few weeks ago, Drew Barrymore and the dude from the Apple commercials would definitely be in the top 5.
Let’s just hope none of these couples break up before the end of the day.
Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens
Say it with me, “Awwwww.” She’s pretty; he may be prettier. Will they last? Does it matter? Zanessa or Zacquesha and their seemingly sweet relationship are hot enough for the photogs to care what they’re doing now — even if you find Zac and his hetero meter a little…uh…questionable. Read More »
Some people say these dresses make you look like you wrapped yourself in a shiny bandage. To those people I say booooo (a strong comeback, I know).
I would have these glorious Herve Leger frocks as total staples if I could afford to buy thousand dollar dresses by the handful. But until I master that plan I will have to stick to my Herve Leger perfume and, like you, buy the cheaper versions of these so-hot-right-now dresses.
Every celebrity and “celebrity” under the sun has been seen in this Herve Leger Style – from Christina to Becks to Jenny McCarthy, and from the A list aaaaall the way down.
I’m sure we will be seeing many more a-knock-off on these dresses, but in the meantime I bring you:

Wednesday night’s finale of Project Runway had me on the edge of my couch. I was a Christian fan ever since overly confident attitude and overly hair-sprayed spunky hair graced my TV. I was hooked on his designs from the very first challenge when he made that fab plaid jacket. So I would have to agree with him when he said “It’s crazy, but, hello, did you have a doubt?”
Out of every season of Project Runway, this is the first time I absolutely LOVED all three collections. Rami’s woven pieces and Jillian’s knit wear made me wish I knew how to use a sewing machine. And know how to draw. And be a fashion designer. Or maybe just have it all in my closet. (Hey a girl can dream right?)
Is anyone else seeing yellow? I’m pretty sure The Simpsons are taking over America. And I’m okay with it.
7-11’s are now Kwik-e-Marts, Jet Blue is their official airline, even Ben & Jerry’s is making an exclusive Simpson’s ice cream flavor for the premiere. Which, by the way, is being held in Springfield, NJ the town America chose as their own Springfield.
You too can be Simpsonized, eat Krusty-O’s cereal or a pink sprinklelicious donut, drink a Squishee or down a Buzz Cola all while reading your Radioactive Man Comic Book.
Or, if you’re a fan of fashion and find yourself glazing the pages of the August Harper’s Bazaar, you’ll see it features Marge alongside Simponized Linda Evangelista modeling the latest fashions (honestly, some dresses are from the Fall 07 collections). The designs of Chanel, Viktor & Rolf, Lanvin, Louis Vuitton, Versace, Gaultier are all featured as the family tours Paris.
Victoria Beckham is coming to America! Well, technically, she’s already here.
Some may not be as excited as others, but I watched NBC’s one-hour special on Posh’s arrival, and let me tell you–you judged the woman a bit too soon.
Right off the bat, it’s so obvious that Victoria knows exactly what she’s doing. Surrounded by her hairdresser and other staff (but, unfortunately not David) Posh immediately hires a new assistant who “cannot be too pretty or too thin.” Okay, I know what you’re thinking. Probably that this woman could not be more vain, right?
Please.
Take a minute to recognize her sarcasm, and after you do, realize that she’s kind of right. If her assistant causes any kind of media stir it would only end up making Posh’s life more chaotic. Defeats the purpose, right?
And the hilarity! Victoria is one funny bitch. After talking her way out of cheating on her driver’s test, she gets invited to a socialite’s lunch where she proceeds to visit with rich old ladies who do dolphin calls. Read More »
Yoooo, I’ll tell you what I want what I really, really want … tickets to see the Spice Girls in concert.
Yes, I have always been a big advocate for the return of teeny-bopper bubblegum pop (and whether you want to admit it or not, you’re excited. Note: this CC article says it all).
So needless to say, I was pretty excited to hear that the Spice Girls have made their reunion official. Sporty, Posh, Baby, Ginger and Scary Spice are teaming up for an 11 date cross continent reunion tour. Kicking off December 7th in Los Angeles and ending January 20th in Cape Town, the Girls will hit the US in LA, Vegas (December 8th) and NYC (December 11th).
Want tickets? Not so fast. (Oh, and don’t pretend like you aren’t excited, nothing beats nostalgia). The Gals have set up a website where you can click the city where you would want to go see the show and fans will be chosen at random for who gets to buy the tickets. Read More »
