We know you spent last night in front of the TV, but prepare to park yourself there tonight, too.
Before Anna Wintour’s late night debut comes the second season premiere of The Rachel Zoe Project and here’s a new clip to get you even more excited for fluffy dresses and Brad’s bow ties.
It’s the day of the Golden Globes and even though Rachel’s studio’s so stuffed with shoes and dresses that no one can move, she hates it all. Life’s rough when you’re trying to make sure Anne Hathaway always looks “new and exciting” now that she’s “exploded” into a major movie star.
When designers and their commercially successful brands started heading back to London Fashion Week in honor of the British Fashion Council’s 25th Anniversary, our first concern was the probable influx of international editors — the stuffy kind who usually skip London because it’s way too fun and way too crazy.
But now Grazia’s given us a whole other reason to whine. They’re reporting a “planned mass showbiz exodus” to Topshop Unique’s front row. And the word “mass” isn’t being used lightly, rumored so far are Blake Lively, Taylor Momsen, Olivia Palermo, Anne Hathaway, the Olsens, Whitney Port, Kate Bosworth and Lourdes Ciccone.
I’m a huge Bikram yoga junkie, though my practice has certainly fallen off a bit since I landed at Fashionista. Note to self: get back to that hot room!
That said, I’m always on the lookout for cool yoga gear. Currently, I’m obsessing over these canvas totes from Beyond Yoga, which are actually not yoga-centric at all but definitely useful for carrying around my mat, clothes, and coconut water.
But really, they’re just super cute canvas bags that graffiti artist Andre Charles adorned with words selected by some A-List celebs. They were asked to complete the sentence “I am beyond…”
This afternoon the Daily Mail showed us the first pictures of the characters from Tim Burton’s film adaptation of Alice in Wonderland.
And while we feel that Tim’s cycle of remaking a classic in a quirky weird way starring Johnny Depp might be getting a little tired, there’s no arguing that the hair and makeup teams are doing some genius work on this set.
I’m kind of loving Anne Hathaway as the White Queen, perhaps because it’s such a very different Anne than we’re used to seeing. And I forever love a perfect scarlet lip with ultra-pale skin.
But from a beauty standpoint, this look leads us to ask the question: when you go from brunette to blond (a current topic of much discussion here at the office) do you bleach the eyebrows too, or do the more dramatic dark brow/light hair combo?
We learned a lot of valuable lessons from Rachel Zoe’s reality show.
The wise one explained that while she’d love to throw her girls onto red carpets in fashion forward runway looks, the public doesn’t always get fashion forward. And so she’s forced to put aside her own taste in lieu of more traditional garb. As in, if she veers too far from strapless/sparkly/long De La Renta, US Weekly will have a field day with her poor unsuspecting clients.
It’s with that rule in mind that we’ve chosen what we hope three of the nominees will wear and what we think they’ll actually wear.
To begin, we’d die if Kate Winslet wore this Vivienne Westwood. It’s her night, she has to win and this is the dress one wears while winning. Plus, we’re still not sure exactly why Britain got so pissed over her Golden Globes speech but this would be a nice nod to her homeland.
Amy Adams, please eschew chiffon and jewel tones for a night - you’re hot and you can rock this black lace. If you’re scared or intimidated, the Oscar De La Renta label is there to comfort you.
Anne Hathaway! Congrats on the nomination. You’re hot, too. And young, so very young, too young to wear so much Valentino and the frumpy Chanel couture of late so why not go nuts and wear this super sexy Proenza cut-out gown? Seriously, Ryan Seacrest won’t know what to do with himself.
But what do we think they’ll actually wear? What do they have to wear to land Best Dressed? Click on my friends.
In 2006, when The Devil Wears Prada came out, everyone thought Vogue would suck it up and put Anne Hathaway on its cover.
No such luck - though Anna Wintour did wear Prada to the premier which is almost better.
Now, three years later, Anne graces the first cover of 2009.
Here’s a behind the scenes peek at the shoot - styled by Tonne Goodman, make-up’d by Gucci Westman and shot by Mario Testino. Anne aptly declares, “If you can’t look gorgeous with this team then you can’t look gorgeous period.”
The Rodarte dress doesn’t hurt either.
Busy tonight?
If not, and maybe even if you are, swing by Elise Overland’s trunk show at Arcade on Melrose.
Why?
— She’ll be selling her Spring 09 collection as well as actual samples - as in pieces that weren’t produced, aren’t for sale, will be yours and only yours.
— Elise Overland is awesome.
— You know you want the leather leggings Anne Hathaway’s wearing at left.
— There will be cocktails.
— Rachel Zoe will be there. So when you obsess over a dress you can ask her opinion, just please refrain from direct quotations.
If you plan on stopping by, RSVP to melissa@lgbpr.com. Tell her we sent you.
“PS. The jacket that Anne Hathaway wears in Get Smart - it’s Tory Burch. When I was watching I couldn’t take my eyes off that damn T logo.” - Former Intern Brett, on the movie’s most memorable moment.

That’s twelve brand names, and that’s three pages into the script of Shopaholic, which was either leaked to us or just shamelessly stolen from a film set last night. Shopaholic is a chick film based on a chick book currently in production in New York. The book has a dreaded pink cover and we suspect the film will, too.
The movie will star Isla Fisher, and we hope she’s got some clause in her contract to get paid for all the brand-dropping. The costumes will obviously be by Patricia Field.
As for the script itself - well, much like the book, we couldn’t stomach it, but maybe it’ll be good because we adore Isla Fisher - even if the hysterical actress is 32, and her character in the script is 23.
Guess Anne Hathaway just couldn’t deal with another movie about a girl who tries to work at a fashion magazine?

Some of the cuties at Miss Sixty last night…
Smile pretty, please!

As it so often happens, the rumors about that pretty celebrity were true:
This year, Anne Hathaway will debut her first campaign for Lancome, following months of speculation that the beauty brand owned by L’Oreal had signed another actress in the wake of Kate Winslet’s campaign for Tresor fragrance.
It should be noted that after Winslet’s commercials aired, Tresor sales went up 20%, although we would speculate that’s partly because Tresor so rarely advertises, especially on television (and we say this despite the fact that Kate Winslet is our favorite actress ever).
Now Hathaway will work with the broader Lancome brand to entice smart young things to pick up a blush brush, which should be an easy task for the Vassar graduate who’s made a pretty solid career out of transforming from gawky to gorgeous in each one of her movies.
The new contract will allow her to do the same thing in ad campaigns - except this time with branded $23 mascara (which - confession - we use every day).
We’ve always thought well of Amanda Bynes, especially after her teen hits What a Girl Wants and She’s The Man. Anyone who can dress up in drag and get Colin Firth to sing the BeeGees is obviously awesome.
But lately we haven’t been loving the actress, because of her coldly calculated moves on the red carpet. It’s as if her publicist and manager said, “Okay darling, if you want more parts, you’ll have to get sexy,” and boom. Plunging dresses. Too much makeup. White-blonde streaks.
And of course the piece de resistance - an eponymous clothing line, thanks to Steve + Barry’s.
The whole thing seems so forced that it bums us out - Amanda’s so talented and sweet. Does she really need fashion to keep her career?
Well, maybe.
With so many starlets cramming for parts, studios want girls who are constantly “out there,” ensuring bigger box office appeal. When Scarlett poses for Louis Vuitton, she’s reminding every Vogue reader to see her movie. When Sienna has a Twenty8Twelve party, she’s also smiling for her latest movie. And Kate Bosworth’s billboards for Tod’s and Coach and Revlon enforce her presence onscreen.
In fact, when we scoured our minds for really good starlets without a solid fashion job, we only found two:
Natalie Portman, who seems weirdly resistant to makeup commercials and designer partnerships… and Anne Hathaway, who’s managed to avoid signing herself to one fashion house.
Though we have heard rumblings of a Valentino deal…
