Rachel & Kim's Gorgeous September Covers


Looking fantastic on the cover of September's InStyle magazine is Rachel Bilson.

As you may have noticed here, Rachel always seems to have immaculate style, even in candids, and she let the mag in on how she soes it:

“I know this sounds terribly shallow, but I’ve been mapping out my outfits for the next day every day since I was little, even before high school. I have a very busy mind - there’s constant chitter-chatter up there - but what I’m wearing the next day? That’s definitely something that’s always been in my head before I go to sleep at night.”

On the cover, Rachel is gorgeous in a print dress from the Fall 2011 collection of Proenza Schouler.

Meanwhile, on the first ever issue of 3D magazine, Kim Kardashian is flaunting her curves in black lingerie and studded Burberry.

Rosie H-W: Women's Health Lovely


Since the release of Transformers 3, many men and women have become more than a little enamored with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and it's not hard to see why. 

Rosie worked hard to get into shape for the film and told Women's Health Magazine a few of her secrets.

As well as exercises, such as sprints on a Versa Climber machine, and 30 yards of "Spiderman crawls" (going on all fours along a track), Rosie would drink "Green shakes" which were a blend of spinach, celery, and apples.

In the article in the July 2011 issue, Rosie wore a Michael Kors bikini with a tank top from Isabel Marant.

Miranda Kerr does In Style Australia


On top of the world and looking better than ever after the birth of little Flynn a few months back, Australia's sweetheart Miranda Kerr scored the cover of InStyle Australia's August 2011 issue.  

Looking gorgeous in a bronze dress from Aussie desiger Thurley, Miranda graces the cover; and inside she talks about how she got into her incredible shape and how life's changed since Flynn:

“He’s a big baby, 4.5 kilograms at birth, and I thought to myself, ‘I have so much more that I want to do aside from modeling. I can live with my body not being in shape if I have a healthy son. It’s worth it’.”

On what's important in her life: “I was working 18-hour days. Now the pace has slowed so I can spend the majority of my time with Flynn—we have a bath together every night. [I am] first a wife and a mother, and then comes work. When I work, it needs to be the best decision for us as a family.”

Megan Fox does Allure June 2010

Looking gorgeous and glam in the June issue of Allure is Megan Fox - she's been keeping a low profile lately but Megan's sure to be big news again in the coming months with new movie Jonah Hex about to be released.

Here are a few more pics, and some interview excerpts from the mag -

On plastic surgery - “I would encourage anyone to first speak with a therapist, to try and figure out where this want comes from, because a lot of times it’s not related to your teeth or your nose or your chin — the surgery is not going to alleviate that insecurity for you. If, then, you feel, This is something that I want to do, then do it. It’s amazing that we have the technology to do the stuff that we do.”

On avoiding industry events - “Everyone blows sunshine up everyone else’s ass. I hate receiving compliments; I hate being told I’m talented or people think I’m going to be a movie star. I always feel that it’s forced and fake.”

Check out more and some Megan beauty tips at allure.com.

AnnaLynne McCord does Shape Magazine

AnnaLynne McCord shows off her bod in a gorgeous pink L Space bikini on cover of the March 2010 issue of Shape magazine - and let's everyone in on some of her diet and excerise tips.

Here's a few extracts, check out the mag or shape.com for more -

Growing up in Georgia, AnnaLynne was surrounded by high-calorie foods. "It's all about butter, sugar, fried, and deep-fried," she said. Because of her crazy-busy schedule—she's on set at 6 a.m. most days and sometimes not in bed until 1 or 2 the next morning—breakfast is the only meal AnnaLynne eats at a normal time. Usually she has an egg sandwich or French toast-or both if she's really hungry. She tends to graze the rest of the day, grabbing a turkey and ham sandwich for lunch, a handful of red and green pepper strips with ranch dressing or cereal bars for a snack, and vegetable soup plus fish or chicken for dinner.

Talking about how she stays in shape AnnaLynne said: "When I first moved to LA, I didn’t have a lot of money to join a gym or take classes, so I improvised. My sister and I went to the library and looked over their DVD collection and discovered Neena and Veena, these Egyptian twins who have a whole series of belly dancing routines. We did them all. When you’re shaking your booty, you can’t help but feel beautiful and sexy."

And for more keep fit:
"With my unpredictable work hours, I rarely have time to exercise and have fun, so my idea of a good workout is to mix them both," she says. "I love being outdoors, playing beach tennis, going for runs in the sand, or doing a three-hour hike with my best girlfriend, Mieko." Three hours? "Yeah, we go to Runyon Canyon or some other hiking trail and just walk and talk for hours," she says. "It's our one-on-one time."

For anyone interested a brown version of AnnaLynne's bikini is on-line at bluefly.net.

Olivia Palermo in Grazia Magazine

Here is the last post before a short break over Christmas and it's a real treat, as Olivia Palermo gives Grazia magazine's special double issue some of her style, hair and beauty tips and secrets. A few extracts and highlights -

Signature Nail Color - "I haven't seen my natural nail color since I was a kid. I always make time for manicures. Red is classic and goes with everything. But if I want to be more on trend, it's black all the way." (Olivia uses Essie Nail Varnish, in Lollypop Red)

How she stays in shape - "I love Bikram yoga, which you do in a hot room. It's the perfect combination of cardio and stregth work".

On her hair - "This is all me, no extenstions. I keep it in good shape by using a really good conditioner and mask, and have learned how to do three styles that suit me; the bun, a loose twist and down and wavy, sometimes pinned at the sides.

Her handbag essential - "I always carry a small pot of baby powder with me to freshen up my skin, or my hair. A make-up artist told me to use it because it's finer than face powder. And it smells great." (Olivia uses Johnson's Baby Powder.)

Alicia Silverstone does Health Magazine


Alicia Silverstone is looking pretty on the cover of September's issue of Heath magazine. The star, once voted Sexiest Female Vegetarian, talked about her vegan diet, new book and fondness for gardening in the nude -

Talking about her new book The Kind Diet:
“I’m excited about presenting something that can make you feel amazing and look your best. Once you’re informed, then you can be really gentle and kind to yourself, by giving yourself all the gifts life has to offer—like mental clarity and vitality—all while making the planet better."

On gardening naked
: "I think it evolved through my new happiness with my body-and also through cool friends. I used to spend a lot of time with Woody Harrelson, and he's not afraid to get naked."

On her vegan diet and life style:
"It's weird to be 32 now and feel and look younger… Right after I first made the switch to a plant-based diet, people were literally telling me, 'What have you done? You're sparkling.'"

“Diet first, exercise second. Exercise is fantastic, and when I need to be a certain way quickly, I amp up my exercise by walking the dogs and doing yoga.”

"You can hear your needs and desires more clearly. You’re just more juicy—there’s just this lightness that happens."

Victoria Beckham does US Elle


Cover star for the US Elle magazine October 2009 issue is a yellow bustier clad Victoria Beckham.

Victoria looks fab on the cover in a Hussein Chalayan Fall 2009 dress and Judith Leiber handbag. Inside she talks TV, kids and America - a few excepts -

On her style: "There are celebrities who always look great, always look pretty, but it’s always the same hair, the same makeup, and I find that quite boring. I want to change it up, do something really creative. I think that might be why women like me."

On stories she got her breast implants replaces with a smaller size: "We should just not talk about each other’s boobs."

On life in America: "You know, I love America. It’s such a positive country. When people say to me, 'How long did it take for you to adjust? Poor you, it must’ve been really difficult' – poor me? I’m living in Beverly Hills. I’m very, very lucky. I wake up every morning and I recognize that I’m blessed.

On her kids: "[They] bloody well will work. Same as myself, same as David. They’re not going to be the kind of kids that just hang about. I want them to be able to fulfill their passions, but I think it’s important that the children grow up and have respect for themselves."

On her TV preferences: "I’ve done Nip/Tuck, Brothers & Sisters, Grey’s Anatomy, Private Practice. Then I got into Gossip Girl. I’m beyond obsessed with that show."

The Judith Leiber clutch bag seen on the cover is currently on-line at judithleiber.com

Shenae Grimes Style andBeauty Secrets


902010 star Shenae Grimes gave Seventeen magazine an interview and let them in on some of her fashion and beauty secrets during their quick Q&A -

Seventeen: Where are some of your favorite places to shop?
Shenae Grimes: I love Urban Outfitters — it's an amazing staple. Also, Forever 21 and H&M, though Barneys and Saks are two of my favorite stores in L.A.

17: What's the one thing in your closet you could never part with?
SG: Two things. A pair of Chanel pink-toe classic 2-inch pumps with a gold chain across the toe and quilted heel. And then my cropped blazer from Urban Outfitters that goes with everything.

17: What was the biggest bargain you've ever gotten?
SG: I always manage to find a really great (I'd like to think real) vintage bag. I have a vintage Chanel bag that I got at Wasteland for $40.

17: What are your three go-to beauty products?
SG: Nars bronzer is unbelievable and MAC. My number one beauty thing that I could not get rid of is La Roche-Posay — a facial tanner slash moisturizer that gradually tans you.

17: How do you style your hair?
SG: The way that my hair dries is the way I like it the best. Frederic Fekkai has a great curling cream. Those beachy sprays by Bumble and bumble are what I stick to. I usually accentuate with a straightening iron. It gives looser, more natural curl, than a curling iron!

17: Do you think people are starting to dress like you?
SG: Ha no! I think people started dressing like Mary Kate Olsen a long time ago. Her and her sister are some of my favorite designers. I've always been the girl the kids in school would be like, "what is she wearing!?" Then eventually some trends would stick.

17: Would you ever think about starting your own line?
SG: I've been thinking about it forever! I'd love to be a designer one day. I want to take baby steps. I think longevity is key in everything. Right now they're just thoughts. Hopefully things will come into fruition.

Taylor Swift does Teen Vogue

This month's Teen Vogue covergirl is country sweetheart Taylor Swift.

In the March 2009 issue Taylor talks about her style, life and how she copes with the paps. A few highlights -

On thinking things happen for a reason:
“I’m the kind of person, who needs to feel like everything happens for a reason. When you date a guy and it goes badly, that’s horrible. But if you can write a song about it, then it was worth it.”

On being popular being easier to meet people:
“It’s weird—I thought I’d have so many more friends, but I feel like I’m less popular than I’ve ever been. It makes me value the people I can trust even more; I still have the same best friend I had all through high school.”

On her glamorous red carpet look:
"I've learned a lot. I go to all these photo shoots, and each time I figure out something new about myself and what I want to wear. For a big night, I like Marchesa or Badgley Mischka—and I love Oscar de la Renta. I've never gotten to wear one of his dresses; if I ever did, I would probably faint. And I am obsessed with high heels."

On being interested in acting
: “Only if it was a show that I loved, like CSI or Grey’s Anatomy, or if it was a really cool script. But I’m not feeling this desperate urge.”

On people taking her picture: "Well, I've never had paparazzi in Nashville before; that's a new thing. You really have a lot of privacy here. I saw that documentary on Britney Spears, and I feel bad for her—she can't leave her house!"

Taylor's Cover Look
- She wears a blue Calvin Klein dress teamed with a ton of necklaces from Badgley Mischka, Made Her Think, Gerard Yosca, Sunday's Best, and Ligia Dias.
