Host a Twilight Stars Film Festival

Aug 25, 2009 @ 2:30 pm

We know what they did before they were vampires, now we can watch what stars like Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson do when they’re not being Bella and Edward. In the indie flick Adventureland, out today on DVD and Blu-ray, Stewart plays an amusement park employee romanced by sweet geek Jesse Eisenberg. This fall, American audiences will get to see their favorite Brit play an injured pilot—who bears a striking resemblance to a certain soulful vampire—in the BBC drama The Haunted Airman. Spend some time catching up on the other titles featuring your favorite Twilight stars and New Moon November will be here before you know it.

The Obamas’ Summer Vacation Style

Aug 25, 2009 @ 10:15 am

The First Family is enjoying the last few days of summer with a little R&R on the beaches of Martha’s Vineyard, but that didn’t stop the ladies from looking their vacation-best when arriving at the Cape Cod Coast Guard Station this weekend. Michelle looked fresh in her belted Sophie Theallet striped sundress and metallic ballet flats, while Malia was picnic-chic in a black-and-white checked blouse and white jeans. Sasha took a cue from her mother wearing a white Hard Tail Forever summer dress with a striped tote. All three ladies topped off their looks with chic, oversize Jackie O. sunglasses.

Style On Set: Jennifer Aniston’s Chic Maxi Dress

Aug 25, 2009 @ 9:00 am

Spotted: Jennifer Aniston on the set of her new film The Bounty in Calypso’s Jada print maxi dress and a FEED 2 Kenya bag. Aniston, who is a fan of Calypso’s chic beach bum aesthetic, just bought the dress at their NYC boutique. But what we really have to admire is her do-gooding tote, one of Lauren Bush’s FEED Projects initiatives, that feeds two Kenya children for an entire year from its purchase alone.
