Filed under: Style for a Cause

Jessica Alba and Gwyneth Paltrow aren't just rich, famous and beautiful celebrities. They're also moms, and as such, they're taking part in JOHNSON's Celebrity Hand-Me-Down Auction on eBay, which starts tonight, May 7, at 10 p.m. ET and runs through May 14.

You can bid on strollers, a diaper bag full of goodies and an adorable variety of kids' clothing donated by Alba. If that's not up your alley, spend your money on Gwyneth's "Get Fit With Tracy Anderson" package. That's Paltrow's trainer, as if you needed added incentive.

Either way, you're supporting a great cause, as all donations help raise funds for JOHNSON's Clean Water Initiative, an effort to make sure clean water is available to all babies. And if you end up with some fabulous star-worthy stuff, well, that's just killing two birds with one stone, right?

Below, Jessica Alba's donations for the Celebrity Hand-Me-Down Auction on eBay.

Mini Skirts Over 30? - StyleLies

Filed under: Style Lies

Kate HudsonWe've all had that friend in high school whose mom wore miniskirts even though she was way old. Or that lady at the bus stop every morning who rocks a mini like she's not a day over 20. Is this appropriate or should minis be dead to those over 30?

Gwyneth Paltrow in Sonia Rykiel - I want that!

Filed under: Get the Look

Let's take a step back in time, to April say, when Gwyneth Paltrow joined her fellow Iron Man co-stars on a tour of the world and looking seriously hot doing it. We mean, holy smokes, did you see those legs! Impressive. We are totally going to start doing pilates and the vegan thing. You know, after we get a big Thanksgiving turkey dinner in our bellies and an equally delicious ham on Christmas. But like, right after that, totally vegan and pilates oriented here. Thanks for the motivation sexy mama.

Sandra Bernhard has Madonna issues

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style

I'm pretty. Madonna looks like Dyan Cannon.
Can you blame her? Sandra Bernhard and Madonna were once the best of galpals. That was only twenty years ago, and while Madonna's fame and fortune has continued to skyrocket, Bernhard can only seem to get press when she bashes Madonna.

So she bashes Madonna.

Gwyneth Paltrow's new blog, GOOP

Filed under: Celebrities with Style

Alert: Soon you will be able to take a peek into the mind, closet, and kitchen of style arbiter Gwyneth Paltrow. She has a blog! And it's called, um, GOOP. What a chic-sounding name! I wonder what she'll advise us all to do. Yoga? Shop? Be good to ourselves? Marry a rock star?

The site will launch soon, but here's what Gwynie says to reel us all in:

"My life is good because I am not passive about it. I want to nourish what is real, and I want to do it without wasting time. I love to travel, to cook, to eat, to take care of my body and mind, to work hard. I love being a mother who has to overcome my bad qualities to be a good mother. I love being in spaces that are clean and feel nice."

You'll just have to wait and see. Go check it out and sign up for the newsletter -- then maybe you'll become BFFs with Madonna too.

Imagine a Photoshop-free magazine cover

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style


Now this is a group movement we can get behind! Dodai over at Jezebel tipped us off to this campaign to get a major magazine to publish a cover without any Photoshopping!

Considering the egregiously heavy handed state of retouching these days, this would be a radical move. Remember the big Faith Hill before and after Redbook cover? The weird gold Gwyneth Paltrow cover of W? The "Is that really Drew Barrymore" Vogue cover? And this Marie Claire cover of Tina Fey, where she looks great, but not quite like herself...

Seriously, when you have to make these women look "better" to sell your product, your standards of beauty are warped.

Tip of the day: Join the MiH denim revival

Filed under: Clothing, Jeans, Celebrities with Style, Daily Obsession, Style Tip of the Day

Remember those smokin' pictures of Farrah Fawcett, perfectly coiffed in a belly baring shirt and tight jeans? She was most likely wearing MiH Denim as were many other bombshells of yore like Jane Birkin and Lauren Bacall.

Now the company, which was started in 1969 as the Jean Machine and later renamed Made in Heaven, has re-invented 70's style flares to accommodate today's skinny, slim, wide leg, and ankle cut jean trends to name a few. Today, new "it" girls like the ever cool Keira Knightley and the always classy Gwyneth Paltrow are eating up these heavenly duds.

And bonus! The company also makes comfortable, roomy tops that are floaty and sophisticated.

You can buy these cool as hell jeans at places like ShopBop and the MiH website.

Gwyneth Paltrow wears Karl Lagerfeld's design for a good cause

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style, Style for a Cause


Gwyneth Paltrow might have wowed us all during her Iron Man promos by wearing teeny, tiny dresses and giant heels, but the fashion-forward blond is getting ready to promote something else, this time wearing a t-shirt.

Gwyneth Paltrow's Vogue cover bombs

Filed under: Celebrities with Style


Poor Gwynnie. Her Vogue cover issue was their lowest selling issue of the entire year so far. Maybe that's because nobody realized it was a picture of her on the cover -- she was Photoshopped until she looked like a wax statue that just vaguely resembled Gwyneth Paltrow.

Are women's backs pornographic?

Filed under: Style in the News


The world is still freaking out after witnessing Miley Cyrus' nude shoulder blades -- which, in itself, is kind of understandable, as even non-prudish folk might balk at teenagers posing suggestively for fashion mags. But now there's news that people are raising hell over the naked backs of grown-up women -- calling them "explicit" and demanding that they be removed from public view.

This latest controversy surrounds some ads for K-Rock, a New York-based radio station, which show women with tattoos of rock bands across their bare shoulders. Offended citizens have complained to the radio station, and now the "scandal" is making headlines in the northeast. Subsequently fashion bloggers are up in arms, calling America's recent obsession with "back pornography" ridiculous and pleading with the country to chill out.

But should we? Personally, we don't see what all the fuss is about. However, you can check out the photos and judge for yourself.

What do high heels and 600 pound gorillas have in common?

Filed under: Accessories, Shoes, Celebrities with Style


There's no doubt that we love the way our legs look in extremely high heels -- put us in a 4" or 5" heel, and we'll show you legs that seem to go on forever, like our pal Gwyneth Paltrow over to the right. However, the New York Times recently had an article about the high, high heel and how women walk in them.

And, of course, the answer is the same as how one would move a 600 pound gorilla -- very carefully.
