Rock the Converse

~blogged by FashionistaJR~

Not too long ago, for the first time EVER, I got a pair of Converse.

After seeing the many styles on people as well as celebs- *cough* Kristen Stewart *cough* - I wanted to try them.

I once tried them and they seemed out of place on me. I, however, now own a colorful and patterned pair.

But it isn't even that I love the many styles of Converse. What is great about them is that I feel totally comfortable in them.

They literally give me an internal sense of comfort in them; Like I could wear or do anything and be completely fine with it.

At this point, I probably sound off my rocker... but I'm sure that you can relate to some extent.

Oh, by the way, I also found out you can design your own Converse. I haven't tried that yet but it does look wicked awesome.

My Converse aren't the pairs above, but they are pretty epic! (in my opinion)

Yeah, it was also the first pair of sneakers I've worn in years-- literally, years.

Grab some Converse, pair them with a dress, skirt, or pair of pants, and see how you like them.

...You never know, you may find that you like them more than high heels.

Angelina Jolie attends the Tokyo ‘Salt’ Premiere in Vintage Versace

*Blogged by Kiki*

Angelina Jolie stunned the crowd at the Tokyo premiere for her latest flick ‘Salt’ held at the Tokyo International Forum today. Angelina wears a Vintage Versace Open Back Gown . I love the draping of the dress at the back, it adds a sexy edge to the look. Miss Jolie has opted back to her favourite colour – black however I'll let this one pass since she looks as stunning as ever. Love the slit up the side of the dress, if only her legs were a little meatier.

January Jones Visits Late Night With Jimmy Fallon in Marchesa Resort 2011

*Blogged by Kiki*

I was wondering who would dare to wear this dress from the latest Marchesa Resort 2011 Collection. The dress features geometric-print and a fringed hem. January Jones dared to wear and although i give her a thumbs up i do wish she has slicked her hair back. The loose tousled hair isn’t doing the dress any favours. Other than that i adore the burst of colour.

*Blogged by Kiki*

I have a little thing for Rachel Bilson, i still love her from my OC days. I’m not sure what Rachel is doing career wise these days but it doesn’t change the fact she has phenomenal style.

Rachel is In Style Magazines September issue cover girl and wears a stunning Hervé Léger by Max Azria Fall 2010 bandage dress.

Victoria Beckham Covers Vogue Turkey

*Blogged by Kiki*

Victoria Beckham covers the August cover of Vogue Turkey. Surprisingly Victoria only wears one dress from her own collection (see pic 7) and the rest of the spread consists of her wearing Turkish designers.

Personally i love this editorial as it’s something new, fresh and fun for Victoria and shows a more playful side of her. I’m not keen on the clip in hair extensions but I'll look over them given that the rest of the spread is stunning.

Blake Lively at Comic Con in Preen Resort 2011

*Blogged by Kiki*

Not a fan. I just don’t GET the Blake hype, fashionistas seem to love her and i however just can’t seem to understand why, is it the body? Or maybe the fact that she constantly insists on showing off her breasts outfit after outfit is wearing me down and clouding my judgement, either way I’m no Blake Lively fangirl.

Blake attended Comic Con 2010 in a Preen Resort 2011 white cropped top and black silk pants. I do appreciate her trying another look and covering up a little more but my eyes are going straight to her chest, how can they not? It’s clouding my judgement.

Angelina Jolie wows in Atelier Versace at the ‘Salt’ Moscow premiere

*Blogged by Kiki*

Angelina Jolie stunned last night as she walked the red carpet for her latest flick ‘Salt’ in Moscow. The actress stunned all by ditching her trademark black for a blood red Atelier Versace halter neck chiffon gown. The dress fit Angelina to perfection, fitting at the top and draping into a stunning train. Too bad the weather was not playing nice, the wind kept blowing Angelina's hair and train around however she was in high spirits as Salt opened at no 2 in the box office.

Jennifer Aniston Launches Fragrance in Valentino

*Blogged by Kiki*

Jennifer Aniston appeared at Harrods this after noon to launch her signature fragrance.

Jen wore a dress from the Valentino Pre Fall 2010 Collection which features bow detailing. Azzedine Alaia sandals complete this look. Whilst i feel she looks great and has a killer body, Jennifer Aniston bores me which is strange because i loved her during her ‘Friends’ days. Maybe it’s the fact she keeps re-running the same look over and over or won’t change her hair. I can’t quite pinpoint when i stopped liking Anistons style.

Vanessa Hudgens in Reem Acra at the Charlie St. Cloud L.A Premiere

*Blogged by Kiki*

Vanessa Hudgens attended the Charlie St. Cloud L.A Premiere last night to show her support for boyfriend Zac Efron. I love a little Zanessa red carpet porn, maybe it’s the fact they are both just so…..pretty. Put your personal feelings about Vanessa aside you can’t deny she is a very beautiful woman, her face is stunning.

The actress looked stunning in a Reem Acra Spring/Summer 2010 Collection ivory silk dress. The dress features an embellished neckline and pearl detailing on the back. I happen to love the pearl draping on the back of the dress, it compliments Vanessa's bohemian style perfectly. She completed the look perfectly with Jimmy Choo shoes and a Ferragamo bag. She looks fantastic.
