Nina Dobrev Wears Extensions For Nylon

Miriam Lacey — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 03:05:36 PST

The Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev is Nylon's February cover girl, and we were surprised by her very un-Elena front-page look. Nina wore big winged liner and unstructured braids that incorporated Featherlocks clip-in feather hair extensions. It's not a hairstyle we're used to seeing on her, but it was actually her idea; Nina apparently brought feather extensions to the cover shoot as part of the "Vegas cowgirl" theme.

Feather extensions were all over the place last year, but they've been keeping a low profile for the past few months, especially after controversies surrounding the ethics of feather sourcing came to light. Given soaring prices and some bad press, we weren't even sure they'd be back in 2012, truth be told. But with the hip likes of Nylon and Nina keeping abreast of the trend, it looks like we've found our answer: you can't keep a good chicken down.

Nina Dobrev Channels Her Inner Vegas Cowgirl For Nylon

Katie Henry — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 11:03:08 PST

Nina Dobrev wore an embellished jacket from McQ for her February 2012 Nylon cover. The Vampire Diaries star also modeled looks from Acne, Jeremy Scott, and Ralph Lauren inside the magazine and worked with her stylist Riawna Capri to create a "vintage Vegas cowgirl" vibe. Nina's quickly becoming a favorite for designers to dress, and for her appearance at the People's Choice Awards earlier this month, she chose a green Elie Saab. The dress was not only beautiful, but apparently comfortable too. Nina was still wearing it when she caught a flight back to Atlanta with boyfriend Ian Somerhalder after the show.

Rachel Bilson Mixes Up Her Look and Talks Homebody Habits For Nylon

Lauren Turner — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 11:34:09 PDT

Rachel Bilson layered up for the cover of Nylon's November America issue. Rachel is known as well for her style as she is for her acting work, and the actress opened up about her fashion sense - and even shared the contents of her Chloe purse! - in the magazine. Rachel's currently starring in the CW series Hart of Dixie, but when she's not working, she admits to being quite the homebody. Here's more from Rachel Bilson in Nylon:

On the contents of her huge Chloe bag: "I feel like Mary Poppins! Look at this, I have a bra in here! All right, let's see what else is here: makeup remover, Advil, nail accessories. . . . Oh! I have socks and a pen in here, too! My wallet, sunglasses, my call sheet, checkbook. . . . I have some Mexican jumping beans! You never know when you may need them!"
On being a homebody: "I'm all about Netflix and ordering Teen Mom on iTunes. I go to bed at nine! I'm not as interested in going out and partying at night anymore; I'm more set in my ways. I know I sound like an 80-year-old."
On her fashion sense as a child: "I always had to dress myself, which is very interesting when you're two. My poor mom. There was this one dress, it was my favorite - it was really colorful and big and ridiculous. I wore it until it fell apart. I was a very bossy fashionista when I was three. I feel like if I ever have a daughter, there is going to be some sweet revenge placed on me because of how I was as a kid."

Olivia Wilde Has the Hiltons by Her Side to Celebrate Her Nylon Cover

Lindsay Miller — Thu, 28 Jul 2011 10:34:27 PDT

Olivia Wilde stepped out last night in LA for the Nylon August issue launch party on the Mondrian hotel's pool deck. Olivia is home in the City of Angels after joining her costars Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford at the Comic-Con premiere of Cowboys & Aliens in San Diego last week. The actress debuted new bangs as she played host for the bash, which also brought out Paris and Nicky Hilton. Olivia is the magazine's current cover girl and opens up about her recent divorce in the accompanying interview. The newly single Olivia told Nylon she self-medicated with food after her split, joking that it was a better choice than crack cocaine, and also admitted that she's still trying to figure out the dating scene.

Vanessa Hudgens and Abbie Cornish Talk Sucker Punch, Girl Power, and Kicking Bradley Cooper's Butt

Lindsay Miller — Tue, 22 Mar 2011 10:20:48 PDT

Sucker Punch costars Vanessa Hudgens and Abbie Cornish each donned leather to pose for the April issue of Nylon. The movie's cast, which also includes Jena Malone, Jamie Chung, and Emily Browning, did their share of toughening up for their roles in the upcoming fantasy film, with Vanessa even learning to use a tomahawk! The leading ladies talked to the magazine about their fight skills, first impressions of each other, and what gets their adrenaline pumping. Here are some highlights:

Vanessa on her first reaction to the film: "My adrenaline was kicking, my energy, my spirits were so high that I literally felt like I had just walked out of a rock concert. . . When I saw it, I was literally like, 'Woo, yes! I can do anything! Yay! Go women!' Like, I feel so empowered."
Abbie on her Limitless costar Bradley Cooper's take on the film: "One night I was having dinner with Bradley Cooper and he was like, 'If [the cast of the A-Team] had played paintball with [the cast of Sucker Punch] you would have kicked our butts.' It's like, 'Yeah, we know.'"
Vanessa on being impressed with her costars: "I remember walking in the very first day, and Jena [Malone] is stretching her back from side to side, and I remember looking at her like, 'Damn! Look at the back on that chica!' She was so cut! I was blown away by her back muscles. I was like, 'Okay, I'm a little bit intimidated, I must admit.'"

Diane Kruger Takes Her Signature Style on Stroll Through LA

Katie Henry — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 02:01:00 PDT

Diane Kruger talked on her phone during a Friday afternoon solo shopping trip in LA. Diane's amazing red-carpet fashion often gets recognition and the mastermind behind many of her most memorable looks, Kate Young, landed right behind Rachel Zoe on the list of the 25 most powerful stylists in Hollywood. Diane often goes with Chanel, but for the LA premiere of her last film, Unknown, Diane chose a short frock by Dolce and Gabbana. The chic mini dress is a popular one, as Kate Bosworth wore the same white lace design at a party last week.

Kate Bosworth Celebrates Her Nylon Cover With Alexander Skarsgard

Molly Goodson — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 09:45:00 PST

Kate Bosworth wore Dolce & Gabbana to pose next to a blown-up version of her Nylon Magazine cover at a party celebrating the issue in LA last night. The actress and jewelry designer had the support of her boyfriend, Alexander Skarsgard, at the event, though as usual the two skipped posing together. She's back home in California from whirlwind Fashion Week visits to NY and London. Alexander, meanwhile, has been rolling solo around town, and earlier this week he hit the red carpet with his True Blood costars to give fans their first look at what's already shaping up to be a sexy, shirtless season four.

Kate Bosworth Bares Her Bellybutton For New Nylon Cover

Lindsay Miller — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 15:34:00 PST

Kate Bosworth graces the March edition of Nylon in short shorts and a midriff-baring top. The actress, who is famous for both her style and her film career, has been jetting from one Fashion Week to the next recently. She was at Calvin Klein's show in NYC and joined her BFF and Baby costar Rachel Bilson in the front row at Burberry in London yesterday. Kate talked about bringing her chic sensibilities to her new career as a designer with JewelMint, her upcoming film Another Happy Day, and what she'd do if acting weren't an option. Here are highlights from her interview, and check out Nylon for more pictures:

On why she launched JewelMint: "I wanted to make everything $30. There's nothing in that price range, really. You can go to, like, Claire's and get something for $5, and the next level up is over $100. This is a middle range of really cute, really fun accessories. All my friends love a bargain, whether or not they can also shop at expensive stores . . . Sienna Miller's one of my best friends and we always go bargain hunting!"
On her latest leading man: "I'm obsessed with Ezra Miller. He's such a fantastic actor and I'm really honored, honestly, that we got to work together. He's gonna be a big deal."
On what other profession she'd consider: "I don't think I could be anything but an actress but if I were, I'd be a psychiatrist. I think people are so interesting and I think their issues are so much a part of what make people who they are. I know I have my issues, for sure!"
