Pregnant Duchess Goes Gap For Stylish Jeggings--Well, Almost!

The Duchess of Cambridge was out and about the streets of London yesterday, heading into a GAP store for a pair of leggings that look like tight jeans. In other words, pregnant Kate was in the market for some jeggings, so says People magazine:

"She was looking for jeggings, which are jeans that look like leggings, as she said she liked very skinny jeans," a source says. "She didn't buy anything as she couldn't find the right leg length."

The GAP calls their jeggings, legging jeans. It can get a bit confusing. But we have a couple pictured below.

Too bad the most famous pregnant woman around the world didn't check out GAP.com. She could find the TALL girls lengths there. A pair of GAP jeggings will set you back at least $70, as show in the photos here.


Kate is barely showing a baby bump these days. The most recent photo depicts the pregnant duchess at a public event in our top pic. That was snapped less than a month ago, we believe.

Kate is a style icon, and appears determined to keep that title. She's going to keep wowing us all with her fab fashion choices for the full term and beyond!!

How Gorgeous Celebrities Stay Cellulite Free For Red Carpet Nights

We've done a ton of articles here about cellulite. And although we've learned that you can't blast away the dimpled fat PERMANENTLY....you CAN lessen cellulite's appearance and prevent further advancement of this common skin condition for girls only.

We love to hear about effective products that can diminish the appearance of cellulite, or at least make it disappear for a few hours.

Take a look below. This cellulite buster is adored by red carpet beauties such as Rihanna, Gwyneth, and Cate:

Prtty Peaushun Skin Tight Body Lotion ($30.95, at Joyus.com).

So....why is this cellulite product better than most?

It tightens, firms and lets you GLOW all over your body.
And it comes in 5 sheer shades that can make each skin tone look downright prtty, so to speak.

Plain. Light. Medium. Dark. Deep Dark.

Just massage Prtty Peashun Skin Tight Body Lotion where you want to radiate and show off smooth, firm tone.

Check out this video with Gina Pell, Joyus host. She makes us want to buy a vat of this cellulite-busting body lotion.

Gina says the Prtty Peashun"almost feels like liquid latex."

Oh, wow. We want some!

Supermodel Rosie Claims Her Beauty Is All In The Green

Most people would argue that the good looks of supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley come mainly from a superb set of genetics.
 
Well, could there be a little something else that gives this great Victoria's Secret model perfect skin + hair?
 
Maybe a little blue-green algae, or chlorella, to be exact?!



Look at the recent Twitter photo of Rosie sipping from her cup of green juice.











The 25-year-old beauty sent the photo to fans in high praise of the 'delicious green juice' which she describes as 'a great way to start the day.'

Rosie looks gorgeous from head-to-toe. So, let's take a peek at the health benefits of chlorella:

Chlorella is packed with a powerhouse of important nutrients. It's full of protein + iron. It also lets you sleep better, gives you a boost of energy, and builds strong hair, nails and flawless skin.

Rosie likes mixing the Chlorella powder into her green juice.

We found some Chlorella powder here. We've never tried it, so we are assuming that it is an acquired taste.

Bottoms up!

Wavy Shoulder Length Celebrity Bobs Hot For Winter 2013!!

Glamorous celebrities are bringing their bob game into 2013!

The wavy, shoulder-length bob hairstyle is a HOT trend for winter 2013.

Some ladies are opting to do the fake bob, by pinning their hair under, like reality star Joanna Krupa of the 'Real Housewives of Miami.'

We think Joanna looks gorg with her platinum do. It's a sophisticated look and NEVER goes out of style. Looks very Marilyn Monroe here.
Style Icon Nicole Richie also went in for a sexy new cut and showed it off on her Instagram yesterday.
We're dying to see the final cut. We like the lovely beach-y waves she's got going here!
And then we have actress Nicole Kidman always at the beauty and fashion forefront with her new, wavy shoulder-length bob as seen at the Golden Globes recently
 
We thought Nicole was faking us out with a rolled and pinned under bob like Joanna's, but she says she had it cut to try something new.
All 3 celebrities look modern and pretty with the wavy bob trend.

We advise buying a good can of styling mouse to get you on your way. And remember---
bobs can be cut + styled a zillion ways. Check out this YouTube vid.

Drew Barrymore's New Makeup Line: Coming Up Roses.....Er...Flower!

Actress Drew Barrymore is in a really good place these days. She's in married-in-love, a new mom to baby Olive, and thrilled about her very affordable new makeup line.

So, yeah....'Everything's coming up roses,' as the old saying reveals. In this case....it's all about Flower.

Flower is the name of Drew's makeup line. And you can find it stocked exclusively at Walmart. The entire line should be available by the end of the month.

We caught the adorable actress, producer, director, cooking on 'The Chew' this afternoon. Drew was wearing makeup from from her new cosmetics line. Flower offers lips, nails, face and eyes makeup.

In fact, we saw lots of lip colors at the Walmart website. A nice variety. Here's a tube for only $6.98. This one's Rosebud, a gorgeous shade that Drew appears to be wearing a lot, lately:
'I think it could last, and my daughter could work on it someday,' the 37-year-old Barrymore says. 'I think I've earned the right to do it, after so many years working with Cover Girl, and I've been in a makeup chair since I was six.'

First Lady Michelle's Do Very Much Like Kerry Washington's Blunt Bangs

First Lady Michelle Obama appears to be channeling actress Kerry Washington with her brand new bangin' hairdo! Just sayin'.....

And it appears that the nation has fallen in love with Michelle's fab fringe, not to mention the stunning Jason Wu red chiffon and velvet halter-style gown she wore to the Inaugural Balls last night.


Okay....the hairstyle is NOT exactly a carbon copy, but we think FLOTUS' new do comes pretty close, and that's a big compliment to Kerry Washington, who just so happens to star in ABC's hit thriller 'Scandal.'
 
Gorgeous Kerry Washington plays the role of crisis manager Olivia Pope who is partly based on former George Bush administration press aide Judy Smith. By the way, 'Scandal' airs on Thursdays, ABC, 10/9C.
Kerry loves 'mixin' it up' when it comes to hairstyles.

The only 'bad thing' about bangs is the upkeep. We know, we wear bangs a lot! You become a high maintenance chick.  EVERY 2 weeks or so, you will need a trim.

Other than that---bangs let you look younger, and there's nothing bad about that!

Get Ready To Think Pink Eyeshadow In 2013!

You're either going to LOVE this very feminine pink eyeshadow trend, or HATE it.  We happen to ADORE pink eyeshadow, but then again, it is an acquired beauty look, and not always easy to pull off.

When chosen wisely, pink eyeshadow is girly, glam and elegant. When too much pink is in sitting on your lids, it can also be cheap-looking, clownish and sort of tacky.

So...where's the fine beauty line?!

We like Dior 'Cherie Bow' Dior Twin Set Eyeshadow in Ballerina Pink 840 ($30, at Nordstrom.com). See the 2 photos above.So pretty! This look was all over the runways for Spring 2013.

Even actress Elle Fanning went for the pink eyeshadow trend at the Critics Choice Awards Show. We thought she kept everything else natural and soft, and pulled off the pink look quite effortlessly. Nice job!

















The pink eyeshadow look is sophisticated when done properly, which is not always easy for all of us. Most of us are NOT celebrities with wonderful makeup artists ready to do their thing. But if the pink shadow is soft and not super bright, we think it's a beauty trend to try in 2013.

Are you ready to think pink?
