Trend Alert: Long Dresses

FabSugar — Mon, 15 Jan 2007 07:29:48 -0800

For those of you gals graced with long legs: get psyched! We all know dresses are hot for Spring and this includes long, flowy, effortless dresses. These particular dresses are slimming, comfortable and sexy. For those of you who are a little more petite, all you've got to do is throw on some wedge platforms and you are good to go! Here are a few of my new favorite long dresses for Spring:

Scoop Printed Tube Dress, $345, is 100% silk and has elasticized tube banding on the chest area. It is available in six different rockin' patterns.

This Nieves Lavi Silk Halter Dress, $350, is made from 100% silk as well and I think is simply gorgeous. It is a long navy stunner with a multicolor floral print and halter straps that tie behind the neck. It's flattering to all bust sizes because of the ruching!

This Rebecca Taylor Voile Halter Dress, $334, is a full-length dress made from two layers of cotton voile. This fitted, empire waist dress ties at the back of the neck and has fabric flower appliqués at the neckline. I love the color of the dress atop a tan and I think this cut is quite flattering to all shapes.

Vivienne Tam Silk Jersey Halter Dress, $425, is a 100% silk, modern version of a kimono. This bright colored halter dress also ties at the neck, has a wrap around belt as well as built in bust pads for lift and comfort...no bra necessary!

Forever 21 Retro Halter Dress is $32.80 and though it's a bit retro, picture this with a great brown woven belt and sexy wedges. This halter dress features ruched detailing at the bust, a pointed waist line and satin retro print skirt.

Kate Winslet and Shakira were among the winners at the Bambi Awards in Germany yesterday, which awards trophies for those in entertainment and sports. Kate was awarded the Best Actress award for her work in The Reader, and looked gorgeous in her long black dress as she posed on the red carpet. Shakira switched outfits from the blue and silver Versace number she wore as she arrived - do you love it or hate it? - to another short metallic dress, this time in black, for her performance. Shakira won the Best International Pop Star award at the ceremony - are you a fan?

The Ladies Are Short, Long and Shiny on the AMA Red Carpet!

Molly — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 23:59:00 -0800

The 2009 American Music Awards descended on the Nokia Theatre in LA last night, which meant a star studded red carpet before the big show. It was a pleasant mixture of long and short dresses on all the ladies, though some even found a way to do both simultaneously like Rihanna in her cutout gown. Carrie Underwood has the early lead in Fab's best dressed poll, but Rih is close behind. Alicia Keys stood out in blue while Fergie's high slit meant she showed off some leg as she posed. Nicole Kidman spent most of her red carpet time on the arm of her husband Keith Urban - speaking of which, check out all the guys here.

Shakira and Selena Gomez cozied up for the cameras in their standout short dresses while Demi Lovato sported some bling around her neck. Paula Abdul went all out in her black gown and Carrie Underwood kept it simple and sweet. Find out how to get some of our favorite red carpet looks like Selena and Demi here. Don't forget to vote in all of Fab and Bella's love it or leave it polls, see the full list of winners and stay tuned for more AMA coverage coming up!

Tom Works Night and Day While Suri Shops With Katie

PopSugar — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 23:56:00 -0800

Katie Holmes left Long Island, where she had been working on The Romantics and headed into NYC for a weekend with Suri. The girls were out to see The Lion King on Friday night, with little Suri looking sleepy as they left the theater together. Saturday they bundled up in coats for a few long walks with Katie's mom, and Suri showed off her red dress from the children's Holmes and Yang and green backpack. Isabella Cruise joined them yesterday for a trip to the ballet, when Suri broke out a pair of bright rain boots despite the sunny day.

Tom, meanwhile, is still in Austria filming Knight and Day. His Friday night was a late one, as he took to a roof to film a dramatic looking action scene with Cameron Diaz. They continued on into Saturday with their work, though Cameron took the evening off to attend a Mozart recital at a local church with their costar Paul Dano.

2009 American Music Awards: Nicole Kidman

BellaSugar — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 16:46:52 -0800

It's a rockin' night, and Nicole Kidman is dressed for it. She arrived on the arm of her crooner husband, Keith Urban, wearing her hair very differently than what we're used to seeing. Instead of an elegant updo or worn long and center-parted, tonight she let her hair cover half her face, a la Veronica Lake. Do you think the style worked as well on Nicole as it did on Veronica, or do you wish she hadn't gone for a remake?

PopSugarUK Meets The New Moon Cast Part Four: Taylor on Stunts, Hobbies, Fans and Playing a Female Part!

PopSugarUK — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 01:55:16 -0800

Taylor Lautner took a break from all those smart suits he's been wearing for premieres and TV appearances and benefit screenings, and wore a casual stripy top and jeans for dinner at BLT in New York City last night. I was lucky enough to meet Taylor when he was in London last week for the New Moon press conference and UK fan event and he revealed all about stunts, hobbies and taking on a female role! Check out all of the gossip from Taylor, Robert and Kristen in my series of interviews and read on to find out more from Jacob Black himself.

On doing his own stunt work for the film:
Taylor: "The stunt work was a lot of fun. I was really glad that I had the opportunity to do a lot more physical stuff. I'd never ridden a dirt bike before so that was kind of scary at first. I had to go through some training so I could make the five seconds of me on the dirt bike look cool. There was a lot of sequences and Chris was really open to some random ideas."
Director Chris Weitz: "I was scared! Taylor does everything he can to endanger his life physically while shooting a movie. Frankly I was just closing my eyes and praying."
Taylor: "He was very supportive." [laughs]
Chris: "The only thing that he didn't do was what the insurance company refused to allow him to do."

To find out what Taylor had to say about how he spends his downtime, how he feels about the fans, and his interest in playing a female character, just read more.

On whether martial arts is still his major hobby:
"It used to be. I haven't done it in a long time. I would definitely be rusty."
On what he does in his downtime now:
"It's hard to tell because we haven't had much of it in a while, but I do like playing football. And just spending time with the family and friends."
On whether the fan support still surprises him:
"I guess after Twilight we expect anything, but it's still a constant surprise to me. I'm always surprised by the fan reactions and the amount of fan support we have behind us, just because none of us expected it when we were filming Twilight. Coming into New Moon it was a little different feeling, but yeah it's great to know we have that kind of support behind us."
On which other character from the saga they would play:
Kristen: "I would love to play Alice. She has my favourite back story of all the Cullens and I would love to play around with her power. I would love to have the visions, I think it's really interesting."
Robert: [looks at Taylor] "I've always wanted your part, even when we're doing scenes together." [laughs]
Taylor: "Is Bella an option? [laughter] I would actually love to get inside Bella's... mind! There's a lot of weird things going on in there and I would love to experience that."

Taylor dressed as Bella is something I would love to see! He also told me all about how he got his hot body through exercise and an extreme eating regime, and chatted with Molly too. Remember to read all my cast interviews and check out my review of the film.
