Aug 23, 2011 @ 2:01 pm

Between the Facebook comments and Twitter responses over Kim Kardashian’s wedding hairstyle, the reaction is split on whether you liked the reality star’s diamond headpiece by Lorraine Schwartz. Fashion entrepreneur Iman admitted she was a bit surprised by the look herself. “When she pulls her hair back she looks so classic, so I thought she would pick something more classic,” the supermodel told InStyle.com at the launch of her Platinum collection for HSN in New York yesterday. “But then I thought, it’s her fairytale. It’s her wedding. She can do what she wants, and she did!”

Kim Kardashian & Blake Lively’s Thanksgiving Plans

Nov 24, 2010 @ 12:48 pm

For us, Thanksgiving’s all about perfecting our pumpkin pie recipe, catching up with family and eating a little too much stuffing. And we found out at the Lorraine Schwartz “2BHAPPY” jewelry collection event that it’s actually pretty similar for Hollywood’s hottest. Blake Lively told us, “I cook an entire feast—a 12-course meal!—sweet potato casserole is my favorite.” Kim Kardashian revealed: “We get up early; my mom stalks us all. She calls, calls, calls to make sure we’re at the house helping, because if we’re not helping cooking it ruins her whole day and she’s a crazy lunatic so I have to get there early.” Sounds like both women have a great days planned. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
