Olivia Palermo Launches Her Blog

After months of talking about it, Olivia Palermo has finally launched her blog into the internetz. Olivia Palermo, is a style icon, but is more known for her role on The City as Whitney Port’s frenemy. If you’ve ever seen the show, Olivia would not be one of the characters you rooted for, but if you have never seen the show at all then you would love her in real life just for her outfits alone. Somewhere in that hot mess of a sentence, it makes sense. The lifestyle blog will cover fashion, traveling, and tips. So far it’s a little lackluster, but I’ll give it a shot and add it to my notepad of blogs. If we were going to judge on visual appeal though, Lauren Conrad’s “The Beauty Department” still takes the cake! Design Love Fest creator Bri Emery is a creative genius!

Check out Olivia Palermo’s self-titled blog here.

André Leon Talley Exits ANTM; Kelly Cutrone Enters

After four years of being a judge on America’s Next Top Model alongside Tyra Banks, we have learned yesterday that André Leon Talley will be leaving the show at the end of the season. His replacement? None other than HBIC PR Head Kelly Cutrone. I know I throw around the term “HBIC” pretty often, but I really mean it this time. Cutrone is known in the fashion business industry for her public relations company People’s Revolution, but on television, is known for being the cutthroat boss to both Whitney Port and Lauren Conrad on The Hills/City. Who could ever forget the moment when Kelly interviews Stephanie Pratt for a position at the PR firm?

Well, I did so here it is again.

I don’t normally watch this show, but Cutrone is one of my idol’s so I might have to make an exception.

Can These Couples Get Back Together?

[Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron]

The amount of time I spend invested in celebrity gossip is sometimes really embarrassing. I take that back. It’s extremely embarrassing, but at the same time I have no shame. I can’t explain why I have such strong feelings towards why I believe certain celebrity couples should be together, but I do! It stirs up some emotions and signs of hope in me I guess! I’m going to stop writing before I say something that will be used against me by my friends later on though.

Lauren Conrad releases more images for collection Paper Crown

I have never really been a huge fan on celebrity-endorsed collections, but I have always been a fan of Lauren Conrad. Believe it or not, I’ve got a soft spot for Paper Crown. I was weary about her fashion venture after being just a reality star, but the girl has proved us all wrong. In fact, she’s worked her butt off just to get where she was today and she’s been through a lot. I’m not just talking her public breakup with long-time boyfriend Kyle Howard or her beef w/ Heidi and Kristin. Earlier this year, her new reality series with MTV was dropped suddenly on the brink of the debut of her new collection. However, Lauren doesn’t need the network to promote her line. She’s been doing it herself all along. Here are just a couple of my favorite images from the new collection, but you can view more at the source.

***** Hey readers! Brace yourself – it was a big news day!

- The UK’s Daily Mail published a photo along with a headline naming the wrong Olsen twin. For most of their early lives (Ages 0-16,) I believed they were identical because they were always dressed alike, but these days I can tell the two of them apart within seconds. You don’t have to see it in their faces to tell who is who, but you will see it in the way that they are dressed. Need some help telling the fashion icons apart? Check out Fashionista for their guide here.

- If you loved Lauren Conrad’s recently dyed tips as much as I did then learn how to do them yourself with the help of Lauren’s hair stylist Kristin Ess in this step-by-step tutorial. [Source]

- Kurt, Rachel, and Finn will not be returning for Season 4 of Glee, but of course we already knew that when Ryan Murphy said they would be graduating after this next year. [Source]

- MTV has renewed Teen Wolf for a second season. I seriously only watch it for these two. [Source]

Olivia Palermo to Launch Blog

Two Olivia Palermo posts in one day? I can’t help it if this HBIC is everywhere! Olivia Palermo is one of my favorite style icons and she just happens to be following the footsteps of Miss Lauren Conrad and Lo Bosworth by creating her own blog. Will it be beauty focused like Lauren’s or be a mixture of a little of everything like Lo’s? Maybe it will just be centered around fashion since her style is what she is known for. Regardless of what the focus will be, I am pretty excited about!

Let’s hope it’s good enough to find a spot on my blogroll.

The Beauty Department

Lauren Conrad can officially add the title of blogger to her resume today as she launched her new blog “The Beauty Department” with her hairstylist Kristin Ess and makeup artist Amy Nadine. The lovely ladies will offer up advice daily on topics involving hair, beauty, and tutorials. Though it is rare for me to be perusing beauty blogs, I feel like I might be visiting it more often just because I am loving the layout done by Design Love Fest.

However, Chris Brown was fully aware of which questions would be asked beforehand as he gave approval. Chris Brown allegedly used a chair to smash the window of his dressing room. He is still on probation and this will most likely be in violation of that. [Source] Oh hai, how are those anger management classes treating you? oh and [Source]

What I’ll Miss About Greek…

On Monday night, I watched my last episode of Greek ever. After four seasons, the ABC Family series finally came to an end and I just wasn’t ready to let it go yet. This is going to sound super silly, but I find myself getting incredibly attached to certain television shows. I can accept growing apart from television series like Grey’s Anatomy because I went through the stages of not having time to watch it, then falling so far behind that it was impossible to catch up. In my eyes, it was a mutual break up – sort of. However, I’ve watched Greek for the past couple of years and though I did not start watching the series when it first started, I spent a whole summer day watching the marathon to get caught up. The students of Cyprus-Rhodes have always had a spot in my Monday night TV time and a place in my heart. [swoon]

I think a large part of why I enjoyed the show so much was because I went through my entire college career without being in the Greek system. Well, Seattle University doesn’t have one so I didn’t really have a choice, but had I gone to another university, I’m almost sure I would have been involved. Through Greek, I was able to live vicariously through their experiences. At some point, I knew this day had to come. You can only attend college for so many years… In honor of Greek, I would like to dedicate this post to what I will miss most.

Casey and Ashleigh’s friendship was the epitome of all friendships! I’m pretty sure everyone was envious of this relationship, but the best part about the two of them was that they were relatable. They were the friends you fought with and had spontaneous adventures with. It was easy to identify with either Casey or Ashleigh and if you didn’t you probably wished you had a best friend just like them.

Lauren Conrad | Paper Crown

Just seven years ago, Lauren Conrad was a high school senior in Laguna Beach turned MTV reality television star. Since then, she has become a published author with several best-selling books and a fashion designer now with two separate lines. What can’t this girl do? Recently, MTV announced that they were ending the production of what would have been her newest reality television show depicting her journey through her latest collection Paper Crown. While the publicity would have been incredible for her line, we all knew that she would be just fine even without it. Yesterday, Lauren Conrad finally debuted her collection of Paper Crown and it is exactly what we would have expected from her – a collection of clothes that we could envision her wearing herself. It is sweet, adorable, and subtle. The collection is geared to be more high end than her Kohls line, but to be honest, I don’t see much of a difference. I do believe that this collection may be at a higher price point than her collection for Kohls though.

To view the rest of the lookbook, click here.

Lauren Conrad for Kohls Spring

Lauren Conrad may not be getting a new reality show on MTV, but we think that she will do just fine. After all, she is the most successful cast member out of both Laguna Beach and The Hills. She also has a way of making her collections look super cute without being high end whereas Heidi failed to do the same with her collection for Anchor Blue. Anyways, her new spring photos for Kohls were just released and they are adorable.

To view the entire Kohls spread, click here.
