OSCARS GOSSIP - THE PRE-SHOW
My favorite part of any awards show is scrutinizing and admiring the stars decked out in their glamorous best. It’s a great way to see the gems (and duds) of different designers in a different setting from the runway— set against a red carpet and lit by hundreds of camera flashes.
Kathy Ireland is hosting this year’s red carpet pre-show, and is rumoured to be sporting an Herve Leger design for the occasion. The whole place is going to be crawling with stars wearing everything from Dolc...
OSCARS GOSSIP - THE BUZZ
The 82nd Academy Awards are just three days away now, co-host Alec Baldwin has arrived and rehearsals for the opening monologue have begun (the Beau’s favorite part) and an opening show that organizers promise will be QUITE the spectacle.
The Beau was out last night so I grabbed a stack of fashion magz and watched all the celebrity gossip and Real Housewives Of… that usually get me groans and an attempted snatch-grab of the remote control. Entertainment Tonight had on show producers B...
OSCARS GOSSIP – THE AMBIANCE
The 82nd annual Academy Awards are just around the corner—- a red carpet soiree of top glamour and gathering of cinema’s most prestigious celebrities. And organizers are promising quite the show.
The list of award presenters has just been released, to the tune of A-listers and past Oscar winners like Penelope Cruz, Kate Winslet and Sean Penn, who took home awards last year for Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Milk, and The Reader, respectively. The late Heath Ledger, who won for his supporting rol...
OSCARS GOSSIP – THE FASHIONS
The 2010 Oscars promise to be an eye-catching extravaganza. Set designer David Rockwell is draping the entire stage in luxurious white, silver and crystal and stylists are dressing stars in bright colors to create a contrast that is sure to be stunning.
Designer to the stars Domenico Vacca told Entertainment Tonight that the wow factor won’t stop at colors, however—-inspired by theatrical Lady Gaga, watch for exciting cuts, interesting draping, and soft and sensual chiffon and silk fabrics....
NO PROPHET-ING FROM HARD WORK?
The Team To Watch At The Oscars
The Academy Awards are approaching as the Olympics are ending, and all of this competition has Kiki D. fired up!
Besides costume designer Catherine Leterrier’s nomination for her spot-on elegant work in Coco Avant Chanel, for which I am obviously crossing my fingers, toes, and every possible extremity, I am also quite excited to witness the possible long-awaited recognition of another French film Un Prophete, (“A Prophet"), by director Jacques Audilard, writer Thomas Bidegian and breakou...
A SPRING WEDDING FEVER
Comment For Your Chance To Win!
Spring means many things to many people. A general theme of the season is shedding: of furs, inhibitions, and clothing. Another is love, passion.
Now I’m not the type to get excited about tying the knot— anything that uses a stranglehold or weight (“ball and chain”, anyone?) as a metaphor is a thing not for me; but one of my dearest gal pals Sophia was just proposed to a few months ago by her 7-year dear, and has asked me to be the Maid of Honor in her ceremony next year—- a ro...
THE SCENT OF VANCOUVER
The Beau and I are attending a few Olympics 2010 events in the Northwest. The city of Vancouver is lovely this time of year and smells like the freshest spring day, tinged with the youthful exuberance of a county fair and the salty mist of the ocean.
For almost as long as there has been modern fragrance (ie. chemical compounds that we can contort to imitate the scents of rare woods, exotic foods and any other olfactory element we desire), there have been perfumers looking to capture the atmos...
VIVA VANCOUVER!
Olympic City Must See’s
How Canadiana do I feel strolling up the damp streets of downtown Vancouver with my venti Americana, in a layered DSquared look and woodsy-fresh She Wood perfume? VERY—- and no “doot aboot it”, readers. (I could get used to this, knowing that the United States is currently in the full swing of winter things while nothing but pavement crunches below my Louboutins here.)
The Beau and I (and the rest of the world) are in the city—- for the Olympics of course, and have already fished out some m...
RIP ALEXANDER MCQUEEN
A fashion great was taken from us much too early— just yesterday in fact, just before the cusp into Fashion week and just weeks before he was due to showcase his new fall collection in Paris.
Fall, the season of death.
I am simply distraught, dear readers. One of my most coveted designers, Alexander McQueen, was found without life in his London home on Thursday, February 11, 2010-— by suicide. The Beau says every genius has a level of torment in him or her as well.
The “enfant terribl...
GRAMMY FASHIONS: KIKI'S CAPTIONS
The Beau and I set out to watch the Grammys last night with popcorn and a shared bottle of Cabernet, and neither of us could help being enthralled with the unveiling of what new red carpet looks the stars sported. (For different reasons perhaps mind you.)
The awards stage itself must have all evening carried a faint cloud of the mixed scents of the show’s top winning trio of ladies: Beyonce, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift.
Beyonce, showing her “True Star Gold,” topped them with 10 awards nomi...
