The City Girls










I love watching The City for mainly one reason the girls on that show have sooo much style it is almost a freaking joke to me. I love how every outfit they wear i want to wear the same exact one ( too bad I do not live in New York and work in a PR firm or magazine) :( !

Two girls in particular catch my attention every time I watch the show; Olivia Palermo and Whitney Port. I just find them so cool and amazing and innovative it is awesome!

Whitney and Olivia have different styles though. While Olivia is very chic, you will never catch this girl in sweats, and classy with what ever she does. Whit in the other hand is a California girl, like me, she mixes that vibe of cool laid back style with a touch of the city that never sleeps style as well! I like to combine the girls look sometimes in my own look.

Besides inspiring me to everyday looks they inspire me to party looks as well. With all the red carpet events they have a lot of amazing looks to get inspired from. I am in love with Olivia's flowy, hippie dresses. I also love how Whitney wears mini dresses with tights making the dress look feminine but also adding elegance with the tights! Get inspired girls!



I hope that with some of the pictures I post of the girl you guys can get just as inspired as I do when I watch them on t.v!!!

I love The City's "It girl"!

L.A Candy






Lauren Conrad, author of the New York times bestseller book L.A Candy, has had a great sense of style since way back when she started on Mtv's hit reality t.v show Laguna Beach. Since then her style has evolved a lot! The great thing about Lauren's style is that she looks great and well put together while doing everything; airport, out grabbing some coffee, or at a movie premier or some launching party, the girl is a trend setter! Today I was having lunch with a couple of people when I noticed that half of the girls there had the "Lauren braid", that she made famous while growing out her bangs on The Hills!

I personally look at Lauren for inspiration on my everyday look for school or when I am going out with friends. Lauren is also a great inspiration for more formal events and I always try to copy either one of her amazing hair styles or a cute simple dress of hers. Whats so great about Lauren is that she has the California cool girl vibe but also the well put together style! I love her I think she is sweet, cute girl and I am also a huge fan of her style!

Oh and just for the memo Lauren is the cover girl of this months issue of Seventeen magazine, already on stands. She talks a little bit about her book and her relationship with her boyfriend. Lauren of course talks about her style. I liked the interview a lot it was very Seventeen magazine but worth reading.


Thanks Lauren for making my mornings less stressful!


p.s
I can guarantee you guys that I will blog a lot more about Lauren and her style and herself personally!

Amanda Bynes is Crazy... in Love


Amanda Bynes is a freak, enough said. Ok so the girl does not have much of a career or personal style. So what do you do when that happens? Well in this town there is only one thing left... go to your twitter and freak the shit out of your date!Rumor has it around town that the guy she is consistently twittering about is Kid Cudi, yes him the guy that sings day and night!hahhahaha.
Amanda Bynes gave us a PERFECT example on her twitter page of what NOT TO DO on the first few dates:
1. Twit about your date
2. Twit too much about your date
3. Freak him out before he runs away from you because he found out you are a crazy wierdo.

Ladies take note of what NOT to do with Ms. Bynes.

Blast from the Past: Mischa Barton





Back in the day when Mischa Barton played Marissa Cooper in the beloved tv series The O.C everyone loved her, until her character in the show died and for some ironic reason acting career after that show was also never the same. Her career since The O.C has not changed but her hair color does seem to change every season just as much as we switch up new "it bags".

The one thing that was left from the old Mischa Barton that we all loved as Marissa Cooper is her perfect sense of style with her pretty vintage clothing to her Chanel bags. Mischa's style is one that we still copy and look for inspiration in our lame, boring old lives.

Thanks Mischa!

Little J






Taylor Momsen is well known for her character in Gossip Girl "little Jenny". In the first few season of Gossip Girl Jenny was the shy girl from Brooklyn trying to impress the "Queen Bee" Blair. Also in the first few season Jenny did not have a lot of personality or style. In real life as well as in the show Taylor Momsen has proven to all of us die hard Gossip Girl fans that she is here to stay, and make an impression on us with her crazy style and sometimes crazy/odd personality!

I sometimes look at her style and think to myself that is the furthest thing I would ever wear anywhere, I do not like being called sexist names, but I also admire her courage to really step out of her comfort zone, and enjoy her self and wear what she likes. I think that is what's so cool about fashion wearing what you like and not giving a shit to what other people think about you, even if sometimes some people, like me, will criticize you on your fashion choices!!

Welcome to the fashion world little J!

It's On with Alexa Chung

Alexa Chung! For me Alexa Chung is the definition of the new easy going "free spirit" style that most people are looking for now a days. I always look for celebrities for inspiration on clothing and Alexa Chung has been the most helpful so far. She has the best style out of many young Hollywood celebs, its fresh, its new, its Alexa Chung!

I love her look because besides being fresh and young it is also things that regular people can wear like a simple cardigan and jean shorts are perfect, I live in California so it is perfect for me all year around, all day everyday baby!



I also love that some of the night time outfits she wears you can find anywhere and it is very adorable with the accessories and small details, it is very cute again very easy. It is also the cute dress that every girl wants to wear to a party and not feel to er uhmm slutty... It is just right.



Besides all that Alexa is also very cute and polished with her look even on an everyday basis adding key elements that bring out her everyday outfits!




Ok guys, I hope that some of the ideas here helped you guys and gave you an idea of easy and comfortable but still chic fashion!!!!!!

Its on!

Review: Dear John


On Friday me and a couple of friends went to the movies to see the MOST anticipated movie ever, at least for us it was, Dear John! I promised, I would blog about it here and comment about the positive and negative things about the movie.

I can start of by saying the movie was AMAZING I cried more than one time!!!!!! I loved it! I had friends though that left the movie theater complaining about it saying that the movie sucked that they changed the ending, well duh it they changed it to make it unpredictable, and blah blah blah. Well you know what? Screw them! The movie was REALLY cute and I loved it! The thing is it is not a guy movie for sure so do not bring your boyfriend but do bring a box of Kleenex with you.

GO SEE DEAR JOHN!!!!!!!!

Quote of the DAY!


I am just starting with the blog so I ask all of you guys to be patient with me here.
Something new that I am incorporating to the blog is "quote" of the day where I am going to get at least one weird, air head, sketch, chill celebrity and what wierd or interesting thing they said that day!!!!!!!!!!

Quote of the DAY:

"Sometimes I find my head spinning. Not because of alcohol, but because of my life."

- Lady GaGa on her meteoric success

p.s
As most of you already figured out by reading my blog I am a huuuuuugeeeee Lady GaGa fan I just think she is amazing and awesome and just the best at what she does!

We shall call it the ISNACK


Ok so because today I went to a tech conference I thought I should talk about tech shiz.

So this is pretty cool, National Automated Merchandising Association, which we had no idea even existed, showed off its latest gadget that is suppose to revitalize the vending machine industry, while also working to improve the snacking habits of Americans.

They are calling it a Diji-Touch (we like our name better) and it is an interactive touch-screen machine that provides digital images of food along with nutritional content. After selecting an item on the touch screen, the virtual junk food enlarges, spins around, and shows the buyer how many calories are in the package of Yodels before buying them.

The snacking companies getting involved in the project think the idea is "fun" and "playful," but would also create jobs and more revenue for their industry.

It's cool looking, but seems pretty extravagant to us.

Do U think some of your tax dollars should go to getting this shiz put in your office? Or are you happier eating your Cheetos in oblivious bliss?

Nearding Out

Yo homies sorry I did not post yesterday I was busy actually
having a social life.... Hehehe.
Anywho.... Right now I'm seating in a tech conference in San Francisco! I've met the coolest people here and honestly it made
me realize what a freaking looser! There is a kid here that owned his first company when he was eight years old!!!! When I was eight
I was eating cookies and watching cartoons... Looser looser me I guess!!!

Anyways my message is to all of you guys out there " follow your dreams and do what you like." I know it's kinda cheesy but it's sooo true!!!
Thanks guys!!!

Partying like a rockstar!


I would just like to post this random picture of me last Friday at my school's Formal. For all of you guys who do not live in the U.S a formal is like a prom which is basically when a bunch of people where dresses and go party like rockstars and brag about which designer they are wearing...hehheeh LOL.

I was in love with my dress it is by a Brazilian designer named Fafa Oliveira she is great love it and it was not a annoying dress you have to keep pulling up because it falls down! Not the case at all. I also love the fact that no one had the same dress as me at the party!!!!! I also loved the color very unique! I bought this dress at a store named Dona Santa in Recife, my hometown,LOL.

Ok guys this pic is just celebrating this weekend and wishing you guys an awesome weekend full of parties and happy times!!!!! Have a great time you guys be careful out there and dress pretty, and look pretty out there!!! wooohooo.

HAVE AN AMAZING WEEKEND/ FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Something Bitchy This Way Comes


Gossip Girl Fans out there: " You can tell Jesus the bitch is back."
Georgina Sparks played by Michelle Trachtenberg will be appearing and shaking things up in the next season of GG!! I am excited to see what this girl plots I love her!

Though this season has been as bland as Taylor Momsen's personality, the second half of Gossip Girl is shaping up to to be insanely good!

We mentioned some MAYJAH spoilers before and now we have big news about someone heading back to the Upper East side!

All hail Georgina Sparks!

Michelle Trachtenberg is confirmed to be returning to the show for it's season finale. The actress reveals that her return starts a big "scandal" with a certain guy we all know and that Georgina is only back for one thing: "vengeance."

So who is this certain guy that causes all the trouble? Michelle teases:

"It's Chuck Bass' dead father I bring him back from the dead! No, I don't. But that would be really creepy. That would be the story if I were still on Buffy."

Very true, but considering that this isn't, we won't consider Georgina being with the father so much as we believe she'll hook up with the son!

Could a Chuck/Georgina showmance be on the way? Could U handle that? Could Michelle please just stay on the show full-time?!

Brazilian booty


I could never figure out one thing: Why the F*** did all jeans look like I weighed 2,000 billion pounds in them? I figured out because my Brazilian bod does not look good in skinny jeans!!! My friend used to joke that I looked like a chicken in skinny jeans!hahahaha.

That is today I was shopping with my mom for school when I tried on the perfect pair of Hudson jeans! They are amazing the best fit for everyone like me that has a big behind and does not look good in skinnys but wants that " cool " stylish look! BAM! Found London Hudson jeans!

So yeah if you are Brazilian with a big booty WARNING DO NOT WEAR skinny jeans! ENOUGH SAID!

Review: When in Rome—or Anywhere Else—Don't See This Movie


Ok so at first I was REALLY excited to watch "When in Rome" mainly for two reasons:
1. I am in love with Josh Duhamel he is GORGEOUS and HOT beyond words
2. I just thought it would be a cute movie you know to watch with the friends and what not.

NO BAD MISTAKE WARNING THIS MOVIE WAS A WASTE OF MY 10 DOLLARS! I want my money back,enough said right?
The plot was boring it was about some random chick who has guys following her and thinks its the most ANNOYING thing ever, yeah right. Then there is this hot guy....snooozeeee boooring... same old thing.
OK so do not go see this movie it sucks! But if you like boring cute little movies then yes go watch it knock yourself out! lol.

Kristen Stewart & Friends Are Vanity Fair's New Hollywood


Look how cute all the new " it girls" are looking on the new issue of Vanity Fair. Well that is until you look at ugly little miss. K- Stew, i do not know why but i do not like that girl maybe because her two costars are the hottest people alive and that is not fair! LOL.

But besides that...

It's that time of year when Vanity Fair features a bunch of young, fresh-faced actresses all hanging out, looking pretty.
For their March 2010 cover, the mag rounded up nine lucky ladies for the annual Hollywood Issue. Kristen Stewart is obviously the most recognizable, so who are the rest of these people? Let's do it from left to right:
Alleged Ryan Phillippe-stealer Abbie Cornish; the always adorable (and Shia LaBeouf GF) Carey Mulligan; Amanda Seyfried, who looks so over these VF shoots; Rebecca Hall; Alice in Wonderland's Mia Wasikowska; fiery redhead Emma Stone; that's moody Evan Rachel Wood back there; and finally, Anna Kendrick gets shoved into the corner.

Link Party: Is Taylor Lautner a Teen Tom Cruise?



Who does not love taylor lautner is probably on drugs and high, i am just saying he is a GOD! He is everyday reminding me more of Tom Cruise i do not know why but with all that attitude and leather jacket, please Taylor do not go crazyyy on us now.

Did Brittany Murphy's Pneumonia Result From Drug Use?


SO, so sad! I used to love Brittany... she was in one of my two favorite movies of all time: Uptown Girls and Clueless! So sad to see her go like this and to make it worse there is also a bunch of naughty and not very thoughtful things being sad about her death. I would like to add that what ever caused her death she was a GREAT actress that deserves A LOT of respect!

By now you've seen the result of Brittany Murphy's initial autopsy results. But what does it really mean?
Despite subtle differences in language, a medical expert tells E! News that the "multiple drug intoxication" listed in today's coroner report is the same factor that caused the deaths of Heath Ledger, River Phoenix, DJ AM and Anna Nicole Smith.
"There is really no difference between 'acute multiple drug intoxication' and 'acute intoxication' and 'multiple drug intoxication,' " Dr. Joshua Perper of the Broward County Medical Examiner's Office explains. "It's up to each medical examiner to decide exactly how to describe it."
Perper, best known for conducting the autopsy on Anna Nicole Smith (ruled the result of "acute combined drug intoxication"), also reveals that Murphy's pneumonia may have been the result of drug use.

REst in Peace Britt you will truly be missed with you great talent!

Amanda Seyfried Knows How to Sell Dear John Movie: Boobs!


She may have the same name as me and she may be the main actress in my favorite movie/ book coming out this friday but she for sure missed the mark in her premier outfit for Dear John!Amanda Seyfried andChanning Tatum were out in Los Angeles last night at the premiere of their new movieDear John. Watching the trailer for that movie again, we pretty much get the whole plot in two minutes—it's like The Notebook but less magical, right? (Miss you,Ryan Gosling!)

Well, Amanda must have realized that, so she decided to go all out and unleash the boobs to really convince us to give the movie a chance.

Well next time Amanda next time, you have plenty of good movies coming out anyways...next time.

Emma Watson vs. the Olsens: Whose Clothes Do You Want?


It's a pretty exciting week for child actors turned fashion designers—both Harry Potter's Emma Watsonand the Olsen twins have debuted new clothing lines.

Emma did a special collection for fair-trade British company People Tree. The 19-year-old's knitwear collection features basic dresses, tops and sweaters, 80 percent of which are made from fair trade-certified cotton. Emma even modeled her designs for the catalog.

Over in Olsen crazy-fun town, the 23-year-old sisters couldn't be bothered to model their newOlsenboye line (that's an "O" with a peace sign, BTW) for JCPenney, but they did pimp it on Good Morning America today.

Lately, Mary-Kate and Ashley have been spending their time designing $1,000 blazers for the Row or slightly more affordable $500 blazers for Elizabeth and James. Isn't it great an Olsen blazer will now only run you $24.99? It's not exactly fair-trade cotton, but that's just one of those trade-offs for accessible Olsen fashion.

Question time! Which of these young ladies' lines are you most interested in?

The best part of the whole ordeal is more fashion and great labels for us to enjoy!!!

Lady Gaga


I love Lady Gaga of all the celebrities out there she is the one that surprises me everyday! How did someone event the no pants trend well that is Gaga for you guys.
