Mary Kate's Makeup

Monday June 30, 2008
After growing up watching Mary Kate and Ashley on made-for-TV movies, I am truly excited to see MK take the big screen with a big kid movie like off-beat comedy "The Wackness." Even more exciting is how fantastic the twin has looked while promoting the movie on red carpets around town.

When she showed up to a recent New York City premiere with the most adorable, angelic makeup around, I instantly wanted to snag the look for my next formal event... or just tomorrow night. Steal her sweet beauty look now!

Rihanna's Red Carpet Prom Inspiration

Sunday June 22, 2008
Although her hit summer song came last year, Rihanna is hitting her style stride right about now. Abbreviated ball gowns were all over the spring runways, and this trend seems tailor-made for the leggy songstress. The shapely corset contrasts with the short, kicky skirt, bringing a young, stylish spin to formalwear.

Because Rihanna's style is endlessly inspiring, we love seeing her out and about. Let's hope she has another summertime sing-a-long up her sleeve!
