While she may be a backstabbing fridge on The City.. Olivia Palermo has style. She is gangsta! in my book. At first I thought it was the pretty face that made the look, but it’s more than that. She has a way of putting together looks that make it seem she spent effortless effort in putting together. It’s not the sloppy celebrity style, it’s not boring head to toe chanel/haute couture either.. it’s just good style. I love watching her on The City this season. Each season her outfits get better and better.

Here’s some looks I found online that I’m going to have to steal… let me know what you think..

I watched the Korean film 200 Pound Beauty a couple nights ago. The concept of the movie — an overweight sex-phone-operator / lip sync vocalist turns into a bombshell overnight after getting massive plastic surgery — is itself a bit disturbing and yet ridiculously interesting, and there were some parts of the film that I really liked. I thought I’d share these clips with you so you’d be spared from having to watch the whole thing. The main character Hanna (Kim Ah-Joong) is crying through literally
half the movie. It’s got that Clueless/She’s All That theme in the
beginning… building up the evolution of a beast to beauty — through
plastic surgery of course since it’s a Korean film. It seems the
director has A.D.D. though and the plot kind of goes all over the
place. You are of course welcome to watch the full film on You Tube if you’re interested. The movie being a contemporary Korean film has some great fashion in it — of course

I really liked the singing scenes one scene shown below. In this scene Hanna is auditioning for the back-up singer role that she used to play when she was 200 pounds. She’s come back to try out for the role since she’s in love with the music producer (of course). She’s now much skinnier and attractive and no one recognizes her of course but is blown away by her singing.

This next one is the scene where Hanna has to go out and do her first performance in front of a live crowd.

And this final clip is the same "Maria" song but the official music video — provides a quick recap of 200 Pound Beauty. Now tell me, does this look like a Korean Shallow Hal or what??

It was a colorful party. Mostly luxe looks to my satisfaction. Here was the best and the worst of the Red Carpet roll at the 2007 MTV Movie Awards…

What was Luxe

Arielle Kebbel — perfect!

Alex Vega — I’m really into sexy back so I’ll overlook these shoes.

Nay on Rihanna’s hair but I love the unique pattern of this floor length dress. It suits her style perfectly for a Red Carpet look.

Lauren Conrad — her hair is perfect with this dress.. again overlooking the shoes.

I’m a little disappointed with Jessica Alba’s outfit since she normally knocks it out but she still looks good as usual. Again, what’s is wrong with everyone’s shoe selections??

This looks like a classic BCBG dress… Paris’ shoes did it for me though. Classic, safe…

Debbie Matenopoulos — Grecian Goddess of the Red Carpet.

Ashley Tisdale — Barbie doll but cute.

Aly and AJ — Fun I guess.

What was Suxe

Little Eva Mendes on the Prairie.. then she grabs her big ‘ole luxury handbag.

I cease to be amazed.

Vanessa Hudgens — this dress is ok but why the Red Carpet?.. her hair is gorgeous though!

Somewhere in between

Too safe with legs like that. I suppose the legs are the centerpiece..

Maybe it’s her pose, maybe it was how she just blends into the backdrop
– how unfortunate is that?, or maybe it’s just the fredericks of
hollywood feel of the dress… Victoria normally looks posh to me but
all I’m feeling on her are those pretty little silver points.

This look screams overage seductress.

Here’s an interesting twist on fashion retail. At Famous Fashions Found.com you can shop — literally by celebrity, movie, or TV Show. This entire online shop is dedicated towards selling items the celebs have been seen wearing. And we’re talking the real stuff, not imitation pieces or knock-offs. The site design is rather crude at this point which is unfortunate since they market themselves as a luxurious, glamorous, exclusive place to shop.

The concept itself has legs. As I mentioned in Celebrities Changing the Face of Fashion we’re social creatures who look to others for fashion inspiration and identification. It’s through others that we learn about our own tastes — dislikes and likes alike. We get to know celebs on such intimate levels that it makes it easy to identify with them, almost as if we knew them personally. I bet we know more about Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton than the people we work with every day!

Anyway, back to the site… Famous Fashions Found has some great potential and I’ll be watching them over the next year. I may even make a purchase… these leather jackets below are… tempting.

If someone from Famous Fashions Found stumbles on this post… please do something about your site design already. I’ll help you create a new logo and "Buy Now" buttons for you asap if you want. It’s really that bad.

But cool site.

Another Celeb Fashion Site I Dig:

Frugal Fashionista — celeb looks deconstructed for frugal prices

Tyra does not look fazed one bit. Might as well use the papz for what they are they for, right? The guy walking next to her is having a good ole time.
