The New Fashionista's

Some of the new Hollywood fashionista's have really been surprising me. In particular Eva Mendes and Gwyneth Paltrow...who knew they would be so heavily involved in the fashion industry??? Lately they've been everywhere. Eva is on the September cover of Marie Claire, Gwyneth is in the new ad campaign for Estee Lauder's new perfume, Eva had that amazing spread in Italian Vogue, Gwyneth killed the cover of V magazine...I mean these chicks are just going toe to toe. If I had to pick one over the other it would definitely be Eva, she has that kind of old Hollywood sexpot thing which is probably why the industry swoons over her...but Gwyneth, I just don't see what all the fuss is about. She looks very average to me, like I could go to the mall and see a million Gwyneth Paltrows. Yeah yeah, she's tall and leggy...but she's boring and between me and you...slightly old looking. Regardless, her and Eva continue to get showered with ad campaigns and fashion spreads...even more than movie roles it seems like. Makes you start to think that maybe the young Hollywood girls don't rule the world after all.

Let's see what they cook up next..clothing line maybe???

Did You See???

Speaking of Dior's Couture Fall 2008 show, guess who decided to walk out and show us how you're really supposed to wear Christian Dior. Eva Mendes came to the Dior show Sunday at the Rodin Museum in Paris, France. Mendes showed up in a gorgeous orange and pink dress from the designers Resort collection. Here goes the dress on the runway...



I hate to say this, but Eva rocked this much better than Chanel Iman. Sorry babes, I still love you!

Eva Mendes' Sickening Spread

Who ever thought that so many actresses would be taking over magazines more than models? Lindsey Lohan..., Kirsten Dunst...., Sarah Jessica Parker....and now Miss Mendes. Ever since I wrote about Vogue Italia doing the spread with all black models I've been keeping an eye on them and I must say that photographer Steven Meisel has done it once again! Eva's 22 page spread will leave anyone drooling and wanting more. She gave me what I needed. I LIVE!! Her posing is sickening and had me in total awe that I flipped back and forth through the spread numerous times before moving on(still thinking about how flawless she was). If you haven't picked up this month's issue of Vogue here is a sample of her spread. Love it.
