THE KIDS STILL LOVE HER
April 3, 2009 at 12:19 am

Not shy at all about her 36 years, Cameron Diaz attended the 2009 Kids Choice Awards in Los Angeles on March 28. Dressing down for the event, Cam was all smiles when she arrived at UCLAs Pauley Pavilion to take part in the ceremony. Pairing a loose polka dot tank with super distressed 7 For All Mankind skinny jeans (try Denim of Virtues Justice Slim Bootcut Jean in Destroyed), Cameron teetered on funky striped heels and cinched her top with a thick wide belt (tone it down with Zoas Polka Dot Ruffle Sleeveless Blouse in Silver and Linea Pelles Triple Buckle Waist Belt in Vanilla). What do you think of the choice of footwear -- hot or over-the-top? Love the cherry red clutch (check out Carla Mancinis Postman Clutch in Red) and dangly silver bracelet, perfect accents to such a casual fit. Do you think it works for the event? In the past, Cam had the honor of hosting the show in 2004, received the Wannabe Award in 2008 and the Burp Award in 2001 -- clearly popular among the kiddies! Cam made a special appearance at the ceremony this year to present the brand new Big Green Help Award to environmental activist Leonardo DiCaprio, who told the crowd as he accepted the award: "We need all of you, the next generation, to be aware. Youre the future." Cameron has quite an eco-friendly reputation as well -- she and Leo were among two of the first celebs spotted cruising in Prius hybrids. Are any of you friends of the environment as well?

LINDSAY LOVES COKE
April 2, 2009 at 10:22 pm

Lindsay Lohan is really making it too easy for me. We all know Linds loves her Coke, and showed this as she toted along a can with her as she left Samantha Ronsons casa in Hollywood on March 31. Seriously, when is she going to ditch those hagatha, ratty hair extensions? Real hair would look so good on you, girl! For her daytime outfit, LL started with a Signorellis Omni Peace Tank in Black tucked into a pair of light wash short shorts (try James Jeans Ian Micro Short in Gangsta). The key piece to Lohans outfit is a statement-making fringe vest, and if you are feeling fringe this season, try incorporating it into your outfit more subtly with a cool bag, like Carla Mancinis Shoulder Bag with Fringe Rows in Off White or Linea Pelles Janis Fringe Clutch in Vintage Black, which also comes in 3 other killer shades. Accessory wise, Lindsay chose a classic pair of Ray-Ban aviators along with a silver watch, and finished things off with an interesting pair of cut-out, lace-up flat boots. What are your thoughts on La Lohans outfit - is this something that you would wear? In other Lindsay news, it seems that Linds is being sneaky about using competing self-tanner brands, instead of her own line of tanning products called Sevin Nyne. Allegedly, shes had mobile tanning company Fake Bake come tan her several times over the past few months. A source says, "Lindsay tans on the sly, and will have the van come to the house of her girlfriend [Samantha Ronson] instead of her own for discretionary purposes." Tanning espionage! However, Lindsays business partner, Kristi Kaylor, defended LL, saying, "Lindsay only uses Sevin Nyne. As well as perfecting the solution with our lab and choosing the scent, Lindsay named the product, art-directed the visual components and has been involved every step of the way. Lindsay also has her own machine and gallons of Sevin Nyne solution that she uses regularly." Gallons of tanner? Talk about a Lindsay paradise!...

KATE MOSS IS A TOPSHOPPER
April 2, 2009 at 10:02 pm

Looking vibrant in a flowing emerald silk frock, model Kate Moss attended the grand opening of NYCs Topshop boutique on April 2. Wearing the limited edition Fairytale Maxi Dress from her Spring/Summer 2009 collection, the 35 year old Brit looked gorgeous in green as she posed with owner Sir Philip Green at the ribbon cutting ceremony. Despite the hard economic times, Topshop moved forward with the opening of its New York flagship store hoping to cater to the citys young fashionistas, as Green enthusiastically told the press: People havent stopped shopping. The young fashion market has still remained pretty resilient during these difficult times! Kates line has done exceptionally well in the UK -- with most items selling out in hours -- and the new Spring/Summer 2009 collection is available for purchase online and in store beginning today. Are any of you shopping? The dress Kate chose for the event has already sold out online, but you can create a similar look with CoutureCandys springy picks like Jenny Packhams Matisse Dress in Multi or Karina Grimaldis Zuni Silk Mini Dress in Kelly Green. Kate topped off her fit with a charcoal cropped leather jacket and swinging silver earrings (try Michele Michels Rococco Earrings in Sterling Silver), showing off noir manicured nails and a gleaming silver bracelet (check out Jessica Elliots versatile Open Clover Cuff in Sterling Silver). Love how she made the spring dress appropriate for winter with sheer black tights and classic black pumps -- what do you think of the bold contrast? The swept back do is perfect too, adding just the right touch of edginess. How do you feel about the whole ensemble?...
