Samantha Ronson and Lindsay Lohan in Skinny Contest

Filed under: Celebrities with Style

Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson at Declare YourselfNever was Lindsay Lohan more famous than when she was skeletal. At one point in her life, she, Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton formed a sort of triumvirate of skinny Hollywood. Then Lindsay bounced back from the brink, went to rehab, gained some weight and was generally considered "healthy" again by the media. However, now that she's dating Samantha Ronson, word on the street has it that the two are in a skinny war.

Rachel Zoe - Oh, No!

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style, Celebrity Fashion Mistakes

Rachel Zoe skinny skinny skinnyIt's no secret that we're big fans of style maven Rachel Zoe. You can read all about our affection in our reviews of her show, The Rachel Zoe Project. We're delighted that The Rachel Zoe Project has been picked up for another season, but we think she may have fired Taylor or Brad. And we're pretty sure it was whichever one was feeding her.

Courtney Love's a liar! (Shocking, we know)

Filed under: Celebrity Fashion Mistakes


Let's start off by all agreeing that Courtney Love is a mess. She just is. And when she dropped a tremendous amount of weight in a very short time, we didn't believe her for a second when she said it was through a strict diet. Puh-lease -- a strict diet takes self control and restraint, which are qualities we know Courtney just doesn't have, so we've always assumed she had some sort of medical assistance.

Organic obsessed? You may be orthorexic.

Filed under: Fashionable Food

This month's Teen Vogue features an article on orthorexia, which experts say is an obsession with eating only "good" foods.

Orthorexics may stick to a stringent raw-foods diet, become obsessed with their sodium intake, or even subsist on homemade, organic baby food. (In other words, orthorexics are consumed by their food, rather than the other way around.)

One girl quoted in Teen Vogue even says, ""I can't help but look down on my friends when they give in to temptations like pizza or ice cream."

Lindsay Lohan reveals...even more

Filed under: Celebrities with Style

Lindsay LohanYou may love her or love to hate her, but the fact remains that Lindsay Lohan has become a style icon in today's celebrity-obsessed culture.

Ms. Lohan has been spotted all over Los Angeles, New York, London and Paris, attending fashion shows, sporting the latest (and sometimes disastrous) styles, and generally causing a ruckus wherever she goes. Recently Lindsay gave an extremely revealing interview to the News of the World, discussing her celebrity status, love life, and the overwhelming pressure from Hollywood to remain stick-thin.

With notorious stylist Rachel Zoe in Lohan's employ, it is not surprising that the starlet has shrunk to waif-like proportions. However, Lindsay seems to be fed up with never being allowed to feed.

"Sometimes being that thin doesn't look healthy. I kind of didn't realize that," said Lohan in her recent interview. "I feel great about my body now, though. When I was in the hospital I was overworked and stressed out and that's when they started talking about my weight. Now I am comfortable in my own skin and I like having a shape and having breasts the size they are."

I for one think that it would be wonderful to have a young, stylish starlet who wears fun clothing for the public to emulate, and is curvy rather than emaciated. Let's hope that Lohan uses her celebrity status and newfound attitude about her body to offer a more balanced perspective on fashion and the risks of becoming weight-obsessed.

Nicole Richie enters rehab

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style

Styledash has been covering the too-skinny celebrity debate for a while now. First there was the model ban in Madrid, followed by a similar measure in Milan, which consequently lead to some discussion of whether or not stylist Rachel Zoe's career would soon be coming to a close. And just like tragic clockwork, last week Nicole Richie entered a weight treatment center for what her publicist insists is "not an eating disorder." (Yeah, and Paris Hilton is "not a self-promoter.)

In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Richie admitted that she was "too thin" and was "not happy with the way she looked." But she despite her admission of a significant weigh loss, Nicole has fiercely denied that she has an eating disorder, a claim that seems silly now that she has entered a treatment facility.
