Rachel Bilson Loves Ray Bans

Jun 8, 2010 @ 4:07 pm

Aviators never looked so chic thanks to Sunglass Hut’s new Style Director (and InStyle contributor) Rachel Bilson. In “Hollywood: Sunglasses have defined this town,” her first blog post on the store’s Web site, Bilson calls out a Tinseltown favorite: “Right now the big thing is Ray-Ban. Think Tom Cruise in Risky Business sliding across the floor in socks, jocks and you guessed it, Wayfarers. They’re back and they’re totally my staple,” the actress wrote. (In the accompanying photo Bilson perfectly pairs a feminine gown with more rugged Ray-Bans, proving her prowess for effortless mixing and matching yet again.) Besides interviewing industry talents like Tory Burch (who revealed the inspiration behind her latest line of glamorous sunnies to Bilson), she is also curating a collection of her favorite shades—just in time for you to pick out your staple for summer! Stay tuned for more images of Bilson at work and check out this behind-the-scenes video of her on the shoot after the jump! More

The second image of Sienna Miller’s campaign for luxury jeweler Piaget (created to celebrate the Possession collection’s 20th anniversary) was just released and the always-gorgeous actress looks radiant.

The campaign’s third and final image will be released later this summer, but for now, you can watch exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of Miller’s shoot here.

Glee: Get The Scoop on Tonight’s Finale Style!

Jun 8, 2010 @ 2:47 pm

Glee‘s hit first season comes to a close tonight, and it looks like the highly-anticipated Regionals will be a competition in both song and style. “[The girls in] New Directions wear retro-style gold brocade dresses by Betsey Johnson with ’60s-inspired hair and makeup, in a nod to the ’60s girl groups,” the show’s costumer Lou Eyrich told us. “The guys wear color-coordinated shirts and ties.” As for their musical nemeses Vocal Adrenaline? “[They] wear very flashy and bold fuschia-and black-sequined dresses, which really pick up the light when they dance,” she said. “They perform an amazing rendition of Queen’s ‘Bohemian Rhapsody.’” There’s a medley of songs by ’80s rock group Journey, and we can also expect to see a few familiar faces: “Olivia Newton John and Josh Groban are back, but they don’t sing,” Eyrich revealed. “And Quinn’s mom shows up.” She also warned that Gleeks should watch the finale with tissues on hand. “I remember crying when I first read the script,” said Eyrich. “Tears were shed by many during shooting.” Watch the clip above of Rachel (Lea Michele) and Finn (Cory Monteith) singing Journey’s “Faithfully” from tonight’s big Glee finale.

Isabella Rossellini Designs Bag For Bulgari

Jun 8, 2010 @ 2:40 pm

Isabella Rossellini is lending her singular sense of style to the famed fine jewelry house Bulgari, for which she’s designed a new handbag. “My connection with Bulgari dates back to when I was a child and I’d accompany my mother”—the legendary Ingrid Bergman—”to the historic shop in Via Condotti in Rome,” said Rossellini, who most recently appeared at the CFDA Awards to honor Style Icon Iman. “She loved Bulgari jewels.” Available in four colors and several materials (in keeping with Rossellini’s multifaceted style), the elegant bag, which features twist locks made of semi-precious stones, is a nod to the glamorous golden years of 1960s Rome. “A bag today is of course an indispensable accessory for us women,” she explained. “We tried to make it an object of elegance and luxury, like a jewel.”

Watch Lady Gaga’s “Alejandro” Video

Jun 8, 2010 @ 2:25 pm

Lady Gaga’s “Alejandro” video premiered today and it did not disappoint: Directed by famed fashion photographer Steven Klein, the epic video clocks in at just under nine minutes and features plenty of gasp-inducing sights, from Gaga’s racy dance scenes in flesh-toned Calvin Klein undies to her custom machine gun bra by David Samuel Menkes (not to mention Emporio Armani’s military-inspired designs for the male dancers). The rest of Gaga’s wardrobe stayed relatively dark and symbolic—expect dramatic pieces by Alexander McQueen, a custom nun outfit by Atsuko Kudo and an elaborate binocular headpiece by Nasir Mazhar. Fans who adored her “Bad Romance” routine will also rejoice at the fluid choreography, which will surely make its way into clubs—and be copied in countless Youtube tribute clips—soon. Watch the video above and tell us what you think in the comments section below!

The four stars of the CW’s hit 90210 remake have teamed up with Bebe on a line of clothes and accessories inspired by each of their characters. Expect to see sweet, feminine frocks for Midwestern-transplant types like Annie Wilson (Shenae Grimes), edgy, fashion-forward accessories for sexier gals like Naomi Clark (AnnaLynne McCord), plus California-girl staples fit for the rest of the gang, Silver (Jessica Stroup) and Adrianna Tate-Duncan (Jessica Lowndes). Fittingly, the new collection will launch in conjunction with the third season premiere (airing this fall)—and you’ll probably spy more than a few of the looks on screen.
