Blake hearts Alpinestars - Tip of the Day
Filed under: Style Tip of the Day
Alpinestars has been dressing moto and race car drivers for years but dressing Hollywood's hottest starlets? Oh yes. It's happening. Their new line, which they call a cross between "James Dean and Cali surfer," offers a mix of biker inspired geared that has young celebs (think Blake Lively and Kirsten Dunst) on the verge of joining Hells Angels. Okay maybe not joining Hells Angels exactly. More like borrowing some of their leather and studded style.
In the words of the German genius, Heidi Klum, "In fashion, one day you're in and the next you're out." So be it. Miu Miu has replaced Kirsten Dunst with Johnny Depp's main squeeze, Vanessa Paradis.
At first there was a lot of hoopla over the ever-increasing number of celebrities turned fashion designers, but since then the hubbub has died down and most of us have accepted that every pop star will be launching a clothing line with their new single.
Whether you love Kirsten Dunst is irrelevant. (I do think she' quite cute.) There is no way you can think that the bile-yellow colored dress she wore to Universal Studios in Osaka, Japan to greet fans is okay. 
In case you haven't noticed, there is quite a hullabaloo surrounding the movie Marie Antoinette, and it seems that the fashion world has taken to it as well. Kirsten Dunst as Marie Antoinette appeared on the most recent Vogue magazine, and elements of the style have showed up on the runways, from high hair (oh, how I am hating my wispy fine stick straight hair that doesn' do anything but hang there) to puffy skirts to brocade fabrics.
