How Much Does J. Lo Love Louboutin?

Nov 23, 2009 @ 11:00 am

Jennifer Lopez loves her Christian Louboutins so much that she wrote a song of praise for the red-soled shoe label. Lopez performed “Louboutin” at last night’s American Music Awards in custom-made Christian Louboutins, of course. The lace peep-toe platform booties boasted a super-high gold glitter heel, but stiletto queen J. Lo managed them like a pro (it was those pesky sneakers that were responsible for her fall). We found a similar pair of Louboutin booties (just swap the glitter for leopard print) perfect for your holiday party circuit!

Shop all Christian Louboutin.

Cook Like Thomas Keller

Nov 23, 2009 @ 10:45 am

Super-star chef Thomas Keller opened his newest Bouchon Bistro in Los Angeles last week. Celebs like Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Ryan Seacrest flocked to the party, where Keller opened his kitchen to give guests a peek behind the scenes. If you can’t make it to one of Keller’s restaurants, try your hand at one of his recipes from his new cookbook, Ad Hoc at Home. It’s filled with delectable, down-to-earth fare (like gruyere grilled cheese and braised beef short ribs), plus expert tips. For example, the perfect cooking tool is a cast-iron skillet. “If you could have one pan in your kitchen, this is the one I would give you,” Keller says.
