Marion Cotillard is Smokin' in GQ

Filed under: Style in the News

Marion Cotillard turns up the heat in the July issue of GQ, and we have to admit, there's a bit of a girl crush going on.

Really, now. Is there anyone chicer or sexier than the French actress? We think not.

Cotillard details the highs and lows of starring opposite Johnny Depp, who plays John Dillinger, in the upcoming film "Public Enemies." (From the sound of it, there weren't any lows...)

Filed under: Style in the News

The last time we mentioned anything about IMG supermodel Gemma Ward it was to announce her retirement from the fashion industry at the ripe old age of 20, which she apparently isn't going to do anymore. Our bad.

Adrian Grenier says vintage is green

Filed under: Celebrities with Style

Being green is hot right now and Adrian Grenier is in the know! The bearded boy wonder attended the Global Green USA 5th pre-Oscar Party held at Avalon last week and talked about being fashionable and saving the world. He said, "People don't realize it, but buying vintage is inherently green."

Vintage has had a huge following in the fashion world for a long time now. It's true that most people don't buy vintage because they think it's good for the environment, they buy vintage items in order to get a certain look.

But, come on now, reduce, reuse, recycle -- there's no reason why that can't apply to fashion!

Fashionistas of the world, listen to Adrian Grenier. If you want to do your part to keep the Earth healthy, vintage is the way to go.

Worst Oscar styles EVER: Gwyneth Paltrow, 2002

Filed under: Celebrities with Style, Red Carpet Trends




In preparation for the Oscars this Sunday, we've picked the more gloriously horrible red carpet disasters from previous years. Click through to see the fashion carnage!

A lot of responsibility comes with being Gwyneth Paltrow. I mean, she wakes up in the morning tall, blonde, thin, and beautiful, and all she has to do is put on a pretty dress, brush her golden locks, and head out the door. Apparently, it's not that easy. Apparently, when one has all those things in her favor, she feels the need to really mess it all up in order to make her fans feel better about themselves.

At least, that's the ONLY way I can explain this goth and Tyson chicken cutlet-inspired dress from the 2002 Oscars. Yikes. And she looks like she knows it with the apologetic smile and extra slouch. She's lucky she's had so many hits -- I'm willing to let her off the hook for this one. Sort of.



Worst Oscar styles EVER: Celine Dion, 1999

Filed under: Celebrities with Style, Red Carpet Trends




In case you didn't know, Celine Dion didn't start out in life looking the way she does. As her career took off, her looks improved dramatically ... which is probably why this outfit choice for the 1999 Academy Awards baffles me so. I mean, I totally understand wanting to take a risk, but clothing needs to be worn facing the front. Kris Kross figured this out by the time they hit puberty, so why didn't someone jump in and tell poor Celine?

The thing is, it's not only that the jacket looks like it's on backwards -- it looks like it's on backwards and isn't made to be worn that way. It just doesn't seem to fit properly. Wouldn't you love to see her try to lift her arms in that?
