A fab coif gets the job done even on the dreariest of personalities. One either wears it or owns it. Over the years of Hollywood glitz and glamour, celebrities are remembered for their timeless contribution to fashion and hairstyles. We have all coveted these famous tresses at some point in our lives . Armed with a magazine clipping, and hopes of a great copy cut and color of any one of Hollywood’s celebrity hair trendsetters … it’s off to the salon for what could be a life changing coiffure.
Let’s back track on some of Hollywood’s iconic hairstyles through the years .
- Twiggy – she owned this infamous blonde bob and became the face of of the 60′s.
- Farrah Fawcett – heaven’s angels might as well be falling from the skies and queue at the salon for Farrah’s 70′s flip.
- Madonna – any material girl who knew how to get into the groove wanted this dirty blonde rocker chic look. It was sexy, wild and just says ” I can rock your world!”
- Winona Ryder – a fresh face was all it needed to carry off this pixie cut . It was youthful , grungey and not many could get away with it too.
- Jennifer Aniston – oh and how we loved Jen’s shag and all the other modifications of this versatile layered cut. The blonde highlights just gave it more depth and texture and would still look ravishing on a windy day!
- Jennifer Lopez – although she always kept her hair long , we just loved it’s luscious waves and length. Something about the color of her hair just gave it that sensuality.
- Rihanna – she took the pop scene by storm with her music and her super short razor sharp edgy bob cuts. Youthful as she is , her symmetric hairstyles were both sultry and empowering.
- Gwen Stefani – her platinum blonde pig tails and faux hawks definitely spelled no -nonsense rocker sexy.

Jennifer Lopez Signs Up As L’Oreal Girl
Posted by katy as Fashion, Jennifer Lopez, News, Tid Bits & News at 10:36 PM UTC on May, 31 2011
Jennifer Lopez is the new face of L’oreal! The sweet yet fiery Latina is very excited to take on this iconic role for the cosmetic brand as she believes the brand epitomizes glamour.
Being a hard working glamour mom certainly doesn’t seem to take toll on the songstress herself. She still boasts of dangerous curves, glowing skin and long luscious flowing locks. Who could ever guess she is a 41 year old mamita?
Lopez says it is very important for her to maintain great skin and beautiful hair. She wants to emphasize on a healthy look which entails keeping her hair in good condition and her skin in top form
Although not everyone is blessed with good genes, it is not impossible to achieve a healthy young looking glow. Jennifer strongly advises women in any age group to take time to look after themselves.
She says to avoid sun exposure , smoking and drinking. You would think how a woman in her status can avoid getting sucked into an unhealthy lifestyle of non stop over indulgence in alcohol, smoking .. and late night partying. But this girl from the block firmly believes in keeping the excesses to a bare minimum by eating healthy, not smoking and binging on alcohol and going tan crazy chasing the sun.
For most Caucasians, sun damage is a detrimental factor to losing that healthy glow. Always use sunscreen whenever you step out of the house. Lopez admits her excitement since she herself will tell you that she admires how L’Oreal is always instep with glamour and innovation.

Celebrities Tanning Not-So-Secret Secret: Bronzers
Posted by dave as Celebrities, Fashion, For Appearances Sake at 10:14 AM UTC on Feb, 18 2011
Want to be red carpet-ready in a snap? Do what celebrities do nowadays and go for tanning lotions with bronzers. Event after event, you will see them posing in front of cameras without having to worry about uneven pale skin, and without the tan lines to show for it, everyone knows that celebrities left and right are using bronzers to give their skin a healthy looking glow all year. The good thing is that bronzers are accessible to mere mortals like the rest of us.
If you need to get a nice event an for a special event, you can go the celebrity way by using a tanning lotion with bronzing agents. Bronzers, if applied properly, will give you an temporary tan instantly. To make sure that you do get that healthy looking skin though, and not a sickly orange look, you need to pick a bronzer that works well with your natural skin tone. Take all the time you need in choosing the bronzer that will give you the effect that you want.
Never ever buy one without having tried it first. You also have to make sure that you apply the bronzer evenly and that you get to the easy to miss parts like right behind the ears so that you do not look mottled or patched up. Have a friend help you out if you need it. Celebrities also glow not just because of their tanning lotions, but also because they really take care of their skin well. So when you do choose a tanning lotion, choose one that not only matches your skin tone, but will also keep it well moisturized.

The best place for celebs to show off their hot designer duds is in the VIP section of fashion shows. Check out these Hollywood fashionistas who managed to steal the attention away from the catwalks at the Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2010. Who wins your vote for best dressed?
Rihanna attended the Jean-Paul Gaultier Pret a Porter show wearing a daring cutout number. Accompanying her at the fashion shows is stylist Mariel Haenn.
She also managed to keep her hands warm in a jewel-encrusted Chanel muff in the French designer’s show.
Dita Von Teese arrived at the Christian Dior show in her signature old Hollywood glam look.
Supermodel Claudia Schiffer went for military chic at the Chanel Pret a Porter show.
It’s in the jeans. Gwyneth Paltrow kept it casual at the Stella McCartney show in Palais De Tokyo.
Katy Perry went hot for sequins at the Sonia Rykiel show. To the surprise of her fans, she ditched her usual colorful retro wardrobe and went for a darker look.
Lindsay Lohan (right) and Spanish designer Estrella Archs walked the runway for Emmanuel Ungaro. Lohan was introduced as the fashion brand’s artistic director, much to the dismay of critics.
Singer Prince outshone the other men (and women!) at the Grand Palais for Chanel. His sexy high heels will put any catwalk diva to shame.
Rocker dude meets boho chick. Couple Max Snow and Mary-Kate Olsen attended the Giambattista Valli Pret a Porter show as part of the Paris Women’s Wear Fashion Week in Jardin des Tuileries.
Lily Allen (right) gave a surprise musical performance at the Chanel Pret a Porter show. She popped out from a pile of hay to perform her hit song “Not Fair.â€

Pink should hire a new stylist
Posted by Rachel as Fashion at 9:54 PM UTC on Dec, 01 2008
I dunno about you guys, but I don’t think that the gown Pink is wearing suits her. I think asymmetrical details only look good on certain body types and hers is not one of them.
Celebs who break the rules
Posted by Rachel as Fashion at 11:56 PM UTC on Aug, 13 2008
Some celebrities are fashion victims, whose fashion statement can be summarized in one word: tacky.
Others somehow know how to bend the rules to their own personality and make it look oh, so good.
Here our favorite fashion renegades
Fashion disaster?
Posted by Rachel as Fashion at 10:34 PM UTC on Jul, 31 2008
Celebs are one of the most influential trendsetters… but sometimes, you just have to ask yourself if their so-called style trademarks are wearable off the red carpet. Check out these stars’ latest looks and rate them.
No, it ain’t posh enough
Posted by Rachel as Fashion, Victoria "Posh" Beckham at 11:36 PM UTC on Jul, 12 2008
Posh is very… determined. Despite her efforts at a fashion career bombing at all fronts, she’s gone ahead and launched a men’s line…which bombed too.
Listen, Posh. It’s not going to happen. Find something else to do. Fashion’s not your thing.
Jessica Simpson gets Intimate
Posted by Rachel as Fashion, Jessica Simpson at 8:57 PM UTC on Jun, 09 2008
It was bound to happen. Jessica Simpson’s already developed a very successful fashion and accessories business — with bags, shoes, sunglasses, and swimsuits. Now she’s gone into lingerie, which she calls Jessica Simpson’s Intimates. The line will be released next spring.“I like different lingerie for different occasions. I think that’s the best thing about it. You can feel sexy or girly depending on your mood.â€
Baby beautiful
Posted by Rachel as Fashion, Nicole Kidman at 4:56 PM UTC on Jun, 03 2008
Nicole Kidman is one of the few people who can look absolutely gorgeous in the middle of a difficult pregnancy. Check out her naternity chic. She looks better than most people do even when they’re not pregnant!!!
Yves Saint Laurent, designer and fashion guru, passed away recently. Check here for a
photo celebration of his life, and his contribution as one of the world’s greatest style makers.
Kelly Rip-off
Posted by Rachel as Fashion, Film Festivals at 10:10 PM UTC on May, 30 2008
Kelly Rippa’s dress looks like a giant feather duster. At least we know if the Cannes Film Festival’s cleaning crew ever need to lift the flecks off the red carpet, they just have to trip her and kick her in the general direction of the dust bunnies.
Birdwatching at Cannes?
Posted by Rachel as Fashion, Film Festivals at 10:03 PM UTC on May, 30 2008
It’s a bird! It’s a plane! No it’s Catherine Keener at Cannes. Good thing her
acting ability is better than her fashion sense.
Latex for Scarlett!
Posted by Rachel as Fashion, Scarlett Johansson at 10:07 PM UTC on May, 07 2008
Stella McCartney is hoping to design Scarlett Johannsen’s wedding dress. Her concept? “Latex! Latex for Scarlett!” Uhm, whatever happened to white lace?
See Mary “jump”
Posted by Rachel as Fashion, Mary-Kate Olsen at 10:41 PM UTC on Mar, 27 2008
What do you think of Mary Kate Olsen’s outfit? Jumpers used to be kids’ wear — acceptable if you’re below six years old, and going to the playground. This satin number, however, was deemed worthy for the 21 party.
Brings back memories when short shorts were chic.
Lindsay explores a new career
Posted by Rachel as Fashion, Lindsay Lohan at 10:01 PM UTC on Mar, 15 2008
Is Lindsay Lohan desperately trying to recoup money she lost when her career stalled last year? Aside from the album she’s working on, she’s now thinking of designing her own line of leggings.
Okay, let’s think about this. What possible credentials could a celebrity have to even begin to say that she’s a designer? And… what could you possibly do with leggings, anyway? It’s stretch fabric. Short of leopard prints and studding it with sequins (which would make it more unflattering than it usually is, for most people) you really have very limited creative freedom.
And, news flash — the leggings look is so two seasons ago.
Confessions of a … fashion victim?
Posted by Rachel as Fashion at 11:07 PM UTC on Mar, 14 2008
Looks like Isla Fischer’s really channeling her role as the fashionista (fashion victim?). The star was spotted at the set of her movie, Confessions of a Shopaholic, wearing fur, oversized bags, bright colors. Either she’s breaking trends — or impersonating a clown. You decide!
