Last Friday I attended a private cocktail party in a suite at the W Hotel in Hollywood with Giuliana Rancic on behalf of DDF skincare. Picture eight members of the media, Giuliana, her manager (and BFF) and two DDF publicists, it was that intimate. Now I’ve met her before, but never really got to know her. An hour and a half later, she showed me pics of her three Oscar dresses (one for E!’s Fashion Police), chatted about her crush (George Clooney), found out the secrets behind her skincare insecurities and regimen and of course, where she gets her hair extensions done. What impressed me most? She’s one of the most honest and grounded people in Hollywood.
Last year I ventured out to LA to meet with talent scouts for The Style Network and E! channel right when I decided to quit my job and go freelance. Go big or go home right? Well, right away I landed myself a gig doing a segment on the Emmy red carpet for the E! channel but that was it for a while – or so I thought.
Until just last night at about 4pm I received a call from The Style Network. They quickly interviewed me asking what I carried my laptop around in (my answer: a Louis Vuitton), if I have a pair of black patent pumps (what girl doesn’t, mine: Louboutins) and if I can wear my hair straight in a high pony tail (my answer: no, I won’t). I thought I might lose the gig because I wouldn’t budge on putting my hair up, but after all if I’m going on camera, I have to feel like myself and trust me, I don’t look pretty in a high pony. They wanted me anyway and compromised letting me wear my hair down… Thank God!
We shot today with some other industry professionals from celeb stylists to designers outside in the freezing cold of Times Square. So what we’re we shooting? A special
This time last year I was in LA getting ready to do a beauty segment for E! on secrets of the stars beauty habits on the red carpet during the Emmys. The experience was incredible! I was with E!‘s own Ashlan Gorse and chatted it up for the rest of the day with people like Padma Lakshmi, Blake Lively, Drew Barrymore and the cast of Mad Men.
This year, I cannot wait to watch the Emmys and have some beauty predictions of what type of makeup looks the nominees will be sporting from Physician’s Formula Celebrity Makeup Artist, Joanna Schlip.
“At this year’s Emmy’s we’ll be seeing two very distinct looks,” remarked Joanna. ”I’m betting on retro glam and and feminine using monochromic, knock-out neutrals.”
Last year, Leighton Meester sported the rocked glam look in a chic white dress perfectly. It’s all about flawless skin, defined brows and a sharp red lip. Joanna also thinks the cat eye will be a huge focal point, but this time, more exaggerated.
Will you be tuning into the Emmys this year? Who are you excited to see on the red carpet?
Ever think about what you’d look like with a smaller nose, more defined cheek bones or plumper lips? How about thinner thighs? Yea, you thought of that… who hasn’t?
Despite the downfall in the economy, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery reports that the demand for plastic surgery procedures in 2009 only fell 2% with liposuction and rhinoplasty being the top two. It seems no matter what the cost, people are willing to put their money where they believe their imperfections are. As a matter of fact, Americans spent over $10.5 billion on cosmetic surgery procedures throughout the year.
