In the News…

***** 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.

2011 Golden Globe Awards

Olivia Wilde in Marchesa

Chocolate brown and gold sequins are the perfect combination for this Golden Globe gown. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen Olivia look this good! I also loved that she wore her hair down with her bangs since we are typically used to seeing it done up.

Nice to meet you Alexis Neiers

Pretty face. Innocent look. Non-alcoholic drink. The girl looks so carefree at the wheel. Oh how a Vanity Fair shoot can be deceiving…

She could have been an Ally Hilfiger with her own reality show (Rich Girls) or a spokesperson like Lily Collins.

It’s a little too late for that now seeing as how young Alexis is about to head straight into super stardom…behind bars that is.

Alexis was the daughter of a former playmate and the director of photography for hit television show, “Friends.” She could have had everything. In fact, she did have everything. She was the definition of a LA party girl. Creating a name for herself on the party scene, E! had offered her and her friend their own reality show titled, “Pretty Wild,” to be aired in March. However, that is all on hold now as she is a suspect in the celebrity burglaries of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and Rachel Bilson just to name a few. The very same ones we have been hearing about in the news. Alexis never acted alone, and she is no amateur, in fact they are professional enough to call themselves “The Bling Ring.”

“According to VF, the kids were accused of stealing $130,000 in clothes and jewelry from both Lohan and Bilson, for example. When cops arrived at Neiers’ home with a search warrant, they found a Marc Jacobs handbag allegedly belonging to Bilson and a Chanel necklace allegedly belonging to Lohan. Yet Neiers insisted to Vanity Fair, “I have receipts for everything.”

When asked how Alexis felt about this whole situation she responded, “I’m a firm believer in Karma, and I think this situation was attracted into my life because it was supposed to be a huge learning lesson for me to grow and expand as a spiritual human being. I see myself being like an Angelina Jolie but even stronger, pushing even harder for the universe and for peace and for the health of our planet. God didn’t give me these talents and looks to just sit around being a model or being famous. I want to lead a huge charity organization. I want to lead a country, for all I know.”

Yeah, good luck Alexis!

Forever 21 will be debuting their new magazine this Friday. Think H&M style magazines.

– Television writer and producer Amy Sherman-Palladino is trying to make Gilmore Girls into a final movie to wrap up the story lines.

Sony Pictures Television is trying to bring back Charlie’s Angels onto the television screen once again.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will be designing a jewelry collection called the Protector for Asprey, which will all be based on a snake. Not surprised there.

– A Costco store in East Harlem, New York will now be selling discount designer bags. They are completely real, but the discount is probably not the discount you wish it would be.

Burberry’s mini satchel costs $1,019.99. A medium shopper tote by Tod’s is $549.99. The Ferragamo “Marissa” handbag goes for $629.99. And the Chanel bag costs $1,999.
