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.

Coachella 2011 Fashion

Camilla Belle and Emma Hill both with Mulberry bags

It’s been exactly a week since Coachella blew all of us away whether we were at the festival or not. Although I was unable to attend the festival, YouTube did a pretty great job providing me with live streaming performances throughout the entire weekend! Watching sets from both Kanye and Jack’s Mannequin from my laptop Sunday evening was the best treat I could have given to myself.

Even though it’s been a week, Coachella is still alive in our hearts and minds as we enter peak music festival season! I couldn’t give it a proper farewell without posting a fashion roundup of the best festival looks from last weekend. Hello inspiration for Capitol Hill Block Party…

Whitney Port’s Genuine Ken


Whitney Port has ditched The City gig, but that doesn’t mean she is finished with reality television. Hulu has released a trailer for new show “Genuine Ken: The Search for the American Boyfriend” hosted by none other than the budding fashion designer herself. In the show, men will compete to prove that they are the “All-American guy” that every girl hopes for. Challenges involve home decor, cooking, surfing, and a whole lot of other stuff that I am totally looking for in a boyfriend! To be honest, I’m not sure where this show is going. It will only be viewed by web and will premiere January 18th.

The best part is that when guys move on to the next round, they will not receive a rose, but a bracelet! Oh yeah… guys wearing bracelets – bring that ish back Whitney Port – so fashionable.

To watch the trailer, click here.

Hills star has a Hit

I’m a firm believer in Anna Wintour‘s saying about how people should know their craft before they get into their business. I’ve posted that quote on this blog a number of times so I thought I would spare you tonight, but it’s totally true! There’s nothing wrong with wanting to dabble in a hobby or exploring your dreams. I’m all for that. What is hard for me to take seriously is when you know nothing about what you’re doing and you haven’t done the research. It’s just silly really. The stars of The Hills have had their hits and misses with it. Lauren Conrad had two clothing lines. Her high fashion one didn’t do so well and was so vanilla plain basic that we knew that it was too bad to be overpriced. She downgraded to Kohls! Then she became an author and her book became a hit seller…now she has found her niche. Whitney Port also launched her own clothing line. She recently showed at Fashion Week in Miami so I’m just going to assume that she’s doing alright. Heidi got lots of plastic surgery, tried to sing and is still trying, and had a collection with Anchor Blue. Fail x 3? I think so.

Olivia Palermo – my style icon has decided to collaborate with Roberta Freymann on a new jewelry collection. Above is one piece from it. I think we know already that that necklace is amazing so I doubt we’ll be seeing her turn out as bad as Heidi.
