Penelope Cruz in YSL - I Want That!

Filed under: Get the Look

penelope cruzAre you loving this laid-back, unfussy side of Penelope Cruz as much as we are? Here, at the Oscars luncheon in Hollywood, Miss Cruz tries casual chic in this fantastic head to toe designer number. While we normally see her in grandiose haute couture gowns, it's great to see that she looks just as insanely beautiful pared down. Plus it's such an easy look to copy cat and great for any body type.

Tip of the day: Best drugstore mascaras

Filed under: Cosmetics, Celebrities with Style, Style Tip of the Day


Over the last decade that we've been wearing makeup (yeah we had one of those dad's that forbid it until we were 16... laaaaame), we have probably tested every single mascara available at our local drugstore – no kidding. We had a great time testing over the years, particularly during a brief period of CVS employment that was strictly for the cosmetic discount. It was basically a crazed 2 month makeup rampage... ahhh the memories.

So after all of this time, we are pleased to share our findings with you.

Celebrity clothing designers: Who would you wear?

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style


Lots of celebrities have taken to "designing" clothing lines. And, while some of them make sense -- who wouldn't want to dress like Penelope Cruz? -- some are questionable, to say the least. Check out this list of celebrity clothing designers and then cast your vote -- who's line would you be most likely to wear?

Scarlett Johannson misses Cannes because she's a diva

Filed under: Hair Care, Cosmetics, Celebrities with Style


So far Woody Allen's new movie, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, has been a huge success at Cannes. There was a ten minute standing ovation after the film's debut, and critics and fans alike have applauded the film's stars from the moment they stepped on the red carpet.

Well, some of the film's stars, anyway -- Penelope Cruz and Rebecca Hall got to enjoy the praise, but Scarlett Johansson didn't make the trip to Cannes this year because the studio wouldn't accommodate her requests.

Penélope Cruz starts new clothing line

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style

It seems like every time you turn around another celebrity has created a clothing line. The latest actress-turned-designer is Penélope Cruz, who's set to design a 25-piece collection with her younger sister, Monica.

The line, which includes accessories, will be sold through the Mango, a Spanish chain. Not surprisingly, the sisters will also be promoting their collection as the faces of the company's fall/winter ad campaign.

This isn't the first time the sisters have worked together in the fashion arena. They've already designed handbags and jewelery for Samantha Thavasa, a Japanese chain, and own a store together, called Amacord.

To be honest, I'm not a big enough Penélope Cruz fan to have any idea what her personal fashion sense is like, but the bags she and her sister designed for Samantha Thavasa -- though not awful -- are certainly nothing to write home about. I doubt we'll be seeing anything shocking original from this latest collaboration.

Penelope Cruz is a Grecian Goddess

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Hair Care, Celebrities with Style

I have always thought of Penelope Cruz as a little ethereal. She seems to effortlessly pull off a glamorous yet approachable look; mixing classic style with the latest trends very naturally.

Last week was no exception, as Ms. Cruz attended the Hollywood premier of her latest movie, Volver, wearing a creamy white, asymmetrically cut, beautifully draped Greek-style gown. Cruz accessorized the dress with diamond earrings and bangles, and wore her hair in an Audrey Hepburn-esque chignon. The overall effect may not have been "on trend", but was one of ageless, timeless beauty, which is refreshing to see amidst so many style-of-the-moment, leggings-clad celebrities.

The Spanish stunner is rumored to be a front-runner in the Oscar race for her performance in the all-Spanish Volver. If Cruz wins, she will be the first woman to take home the Best Actress award for a foreign-language film since Sophia Loren won in 1961.
