We love the mix of jeans with jaunty blazer, monogrammed tie and casually draped fur. We especially love the fashion week checklist. A lighthearted way to make a serious point.

Top Stylists Create Hot Looks At NY Fashion Week With L'Oreal

Top stylists used L'Oreal Professionnel's Texture Expert and HOMME styling lines to create the season's hottest looks at New York Fashion Week. Styling two of the must-see shows - Zac Posen and Carlos Campos - L'Oreal Professionnel Texture Expert and HOMME created looks that matched the designers' inspirations and set hair trends for the upcoming season.

The Carlos Campos show marked the introduction of HOMME, L'Oreal Professionnel's new innovative men's collection of styling, color and care products. Also making a debut at both shows was the new Texture Expert Reverie/Realite collection, alongside favorites from the Texture Expert collection.

Zac Posen, February 19

World-renowned hair stylist Odile Gilbert created the hair design for the Zac Posen 2009 Fall/Winter Collection, which perfectly complemented the romantic and mystical energy of the collection, which included a performance by The Five Browns, a group of piano virtuoso siblings. Front row celebrities included Claire Danes, Rachel Bilson, Nicole Ritchie and Alicia Keys.

"The look is a French-inspired Josephine Bonaparte meets punk, with a lot of volume and texture. It has a messy, yet put together feel, as if it has been worn for several hours," notes Gilbert.

The hair was first prepped with L'Oreal Professionnel Texture Expert Expansion and curled then teased. Sections of hair were pinned and twisted to form the chignon all the while being generously sprayed with L'Oreal Professionnel Texture Expert Infinium #2, while allowing for continued styling. The headband was added once the chignon was set, then the front section of the hair teased and tucked into place. To finish the look, Gilbert and team sprayed L'Oreal Professionnel Texture Expert Infinium #4, for a strong hold and a hint of shine.

Carlos Campos, February 15

Renowned celebrity stylist, Ted Gibson, crafted sleek and contemporary hairstyles that complemented the uniform theme of the Carlos Campos 2009 Fall Collection.

The men's look Gibson created with L'Oreal Professionnel is a modern Clark Gable, with a deep side part of very shiny, highly quaffed hair that looks handsomely young.

Stripes? Check!

We love both these looks: the yellow biker jacket paired with black and white keeps it in the spotlight and the striped suit keeps cool with Converse and a bow tie which suggests a sense of humor in the wearer.

A Review of Jay McCarroll's Eleven Minutes

Fashion Week NYC has just ended and what better time to review Eleven Minutes the new documentary by Michael Selditch and Rob Tate featuring Jay McCarroll, the first winner of Project Runway. I am not a huge “reality TV” fan as the majority of these shows catapult average people into screen fame (meaning famous on the tv or the internet but without having any accomplishment offscreen or talent whatsoever).

Project Runway is (or was – where is PR now?) different. To get onto the show and to continue on the show you had to have talent. And work hard. Yes, having a big personality helps as well and being too quiet can hurt you. It was exciting to tune in each week and find out what the challenge was and how the contestants were going to pull it off. And similar to child stars, we want to know after the fact “where are they now?” We imagine how amazing our life would be given such an opportunity…Eleven Minutes asks “but would it be?”

The film opens with Jay the day after fashion week of February 2005.
He has just informed us (or the camera) that he’ll be showing in September and follows with
"So today marks when I need to get my ass in gear. I have a design. It’s in my studio. It’s on paper. I just don’t know how to pay for it…or how to get it produced… manufactured… distributed... advertised ...merchandised …I just know how to put it on paper!"
And this sets up the premise of the film: how does an idea go from paper to actuality in the world of fashion. But the secondary premise that is not stated so directly is how can someone who has become a reality TV star continue his creative process with the high expectations of the media.

Jay is complex in a very ordinary way. He wants to be accepted by the fashion world but he wants to do so on his terms and there’s no roadmap on how to accomplish this. His story is familiar to any creative artist who wants recognition but doesn’t want to lose control of his or her creative process. Initially offered 100k as part of his winnings, I have read (Jay will not comment on this) that he turned it down because it gave Project Runway 10% of everything for perpetuity. A clause since dropped from the contract.

The documentary is an insightful look at Jay’s process of putting together a show as well as his intimate struggle against his own personality as defined by the media. It is almost uncomfortably real -like when he is swearing during his pre-show interviews- which made me want to reach into the TV and smack him and say “Don’t fuck it up for yourself by saying things they can’t use in TV-land. In Eleven Minutes we experience the tension and insecurity as well as the hope and excitement of trying to make a vision a reality along with Jay -as well as learn more about the process and problems of producing a line than we’d ever want!

Queen Latifah Wears Georges Chakra’s gown at Academy Awards

After his highly acclaimed Ready to wear show in New York, Chakra continues to climb the ladders of success by signing even more evening dresses for the stars on important occasions such as the Oscars, the Brit Awards and the Grammy Awards.

After traveling to Paris especially to attend Chakra’s latest Haute Couture show, the singer-actress Queen Latifah stepped on the red carpet of the 81th Annual Academy Awards – Oscars 2009 wearing a Chakra’s gown. The one-shouldered navy duchess satin gown was tailored made with Swarovski-encrusted neckline. Later that evening, Queen Latifah sang on stage also wearing a custom made royal blue gown by Georges Chakra.

On the other hand, American Idol Season 4 winner Carrie Underwood attended the 17th annual Elton John Aids Foundation Oscars party looking amazingly beautiful in Georges Chakra’s gown. Her asymmetrical dress in rough silk macramé adorned with flowers and crystal gemstones was chosen from the designer’s latest summer 09 couture collection.

In the UK, Cheryl Cole, member of Girls Aloud went for a pure white look signed by Chakra to attend the Brit Awards Ceremony 2009. The short A-line dress delicately embroidered with white flowers contributed in listing Girls Aloud as Brit Awards’ best dressed.

Crown Prince

Okay, maybe not a prince (princess?...no not that either). But we love the ingenious hat and these 2 dashing fellows added flavour to the week.

Oscar Fashion Trends 2009

Red carpet fashion was really a mind blowing on the night of Oscar Awards function. The Winner Of Best Actress Award was Kate Winslet wearing a two tone, steel blue and black, YSL dress. Her hair was back and off her face in a "modern Grace Kelly" coif.

The very close runner up was Natalie Portman in an orchid Rodarte gown. The photo doesn't do justice to the perfect fit and color that was pink without being too sweet.

There was number of celebrities found in a good amount of red on that night. Amanda Seyfried's hair and chunky necklace complemented the clean lines of her Valentino dress.

Amy Adams was also looking beautiful in huge Fred Leighton necklace with her pulled back hair and sexy Carolina Herrera dress.
Beautiful Heidi Klum has been wowing all this awards season; but not last night. Her modern Roland Mouret gown was too hard and the slit too high. Her chunky jewelry (huge earrings and too many bracelets) was over done and the matchy shoes looked prom-ish.

On that night there were lot of light colored dresses as well. Anne Hathaway, who knows how to work the carpet, wore a silvery Armani Prive gown covered in little silver paillettes which fit perfectly and flattered her pale skin and dark hair.
Taraji P. Henson wore a Cavalli gown with small soft tiers of fabric. Her perfect bob and chunky necklace were looking of a great match.

The most beautiful Jessica Biel caught serious slack on Twitter for the sloppy hair; but at a distance and in pictures we think it looks good. Her Prada dress was so much attractive.

Angelina Jolie was looking so much beautiful on the night. She's so undeniably gorge we love her. Does she always have to look so effortlessly fab? Well, here's some good news: She did put some effort into her hair last night--or at least celeb stylist David Babaii did To complete the look, put on 115 carat Lorraine Schwartz emerald earrings, grab your equally stunning hubby and go!

Truly plaidly deeply

Plaid is big. We get that. Normally not a fan but this look works plaid without evoking grunge, hipsters or Catholic school...an accomplishment in itself.

Celebritati la evenimente: Premiile Oscar 2009

Premiile Oscar sunt o oportunitate minunata pentru celebritati sa straluceasca pe covorul rosu si pentru designeri sa-si promoveze creatiile.
Dupa ce au ales, au asortat si au ajustat, iata cu ce au pasit in lumina reflectoarelor cateva participante si preminate.
Alicia Keys a adus putina culoare pe covorul rosu cu rochia liliachie Armani Prive. Miss Keys a accesorizat cu bijuterii Leighton din secolul 19, sandale Jimmy Choo si clutch Zufi Alexander

O alta aparitie in mov - Lisa Rinna in Gustavo Cadile toamna 2009. Un mare minus pentru coafura sauvage.

Le Bal des Sirènes, colectia lui Zuhair Murad pentru sezonul primavara/vara 2009, a fost preferata mea dintre toate colectiile din cadrul Paris Haute couture Fashion Week si abia asteptam sa vad una din rochiile lui pe covorul rosu. Rochia de mai jos este absolut superba, dar nu purtata de Miley Cyrus. Bijuteriile sunt Neil Lane si clutch-ul Mary Norton.

Rochia Christian Dior Haute couture a transformat-o pe Sarah Jessica belle of the ball. Buclele lejere ii dau un aer fresh.

Beyonce intr-o rochie sirena, ceva obisnuit pentru ea, mereu poarta acest gen de rochie, creata de mama ei Tina Knowles pentru House of Dereon. Stim ca poti mai mult Bee!

Cea mai buna actrita in rol secundar in "Vicky Cristina Barcelona", Penelope Cruz, a aratat fabulos in rochia Pierre Balmain Haute couture, o piesa demna de muzeu, creata in anii'50. Ca accesorii a ales diamante Chopard de aproape 3 milioane de dolari si un clutch Judith Leiber.

Castigatoarea a Premiului Oscar pentru rolul din "The Reader", Kate Winslet, a optat pentru o rochie asimetrica Atelier Yves Saint Laurent by Stefano Pilati si a accesorizat cu diamante Chopard.

Din nou intr-o tinuta all black, deja a devenit predictibila - Angelina Jolie in Elie Saab si clutch Lana Marks alaturi de Brad Pitt in Tom Ford. Smaraldele Lorraine Schwartz au salvat look-ul Angelinei.

Jennifer Aniston a ales o rochie Valentino Couture din colectia de primavara 2009, sandale Jimmy Choo si diamante Bulgari.
Imi place impletitura din parul ei si faptul ca a facut ceva cu suvitele mereu drepte care devenisera plictisitoare.
