NO SALES TAX
Celebrity Dresses: December 2009 Archives
Gossip Girl's Jessica Szohr graces Teen Vogue's February cover, and the Wisconsin native spends a good deal of the piece discussing her days trying to make it as an actress in LA (spoiler alert: it involved a lot of crying into her pillow), and also, her boyfriend, the actor Ed Westwick, whom she describes as "rad." (Note to readers: This strikes me as one of those words that is semi trying - but sort of failing? - to make a comeback. Thoughts?) Regardless, the actress claims not to be a super fashiony type, but given the style revolution that her character, Vanessa (aka "V"), has undergone since season one -- during which she could routinely be spotted wearing tacky neons, cheapo metallics and hundreds of bright plastic bracelets -- it's possible that that the actress has more style than she knows. Check out the interview here.
This Saturday, Z100 hosted their 2009 Jingle Ball at Madison Square Garden. The obvious stars of the show were, as per every single music-related event of 2009, Swifty, and the newest teen-pop idol of the moment, 15-year-old heartthrob Justin Bieber. Bieber, whose sideswept bangs have been known to cause riots, had no trouble putting on a heart-wrenching (well, to some) show while simultaneously sporting a cast on his leg. Also, he somehow made a cast look semi like an accessory?
For the record, I would not be remotely surprised if 13-year-old girls everywhere picked this up as a winter trend.
Swifty was, as usual, glowing -- shimmering? -- in ever-more sparkles, which one cannot really demean as one might otherwise, because, sorry, they just suit her.
Meanwhile, Leighton Meester turned up in a characteristically fashionable girly-rock ensemble.
And finally, I would just like to say that I am digging Jordin Sparks' shoes.
Def Leppard?
This weekend, Taylor Swift was on the cover of T Magazine, the New York Times' Style Magazine. It's a pretty brief piece, but in it, Swift reveals that she was sort of an outcast in high school, due to her love for country music. Didn't Swift go to high school in Nashville? Don't they like country music there? Hm. Maybe I am being a regionalist. Does that word exist? Anyway, you should check out the article.
