Adrien Brody as Salvador Dalí

Just because you haven’t seen Adrien Brody billed much at the box office lately doesn’t mean he’s not working. For example, in the past year alone, he’s released three indie films: “The Experiment” (2010), “Wrecked” (2011) and “Detachment” (2011). But if you’ve been missing him lately and his buddy Owen Wilson, you should check out both in Woody Allen’s latest film, “Midnight In Paris.”

With a star-studded cast that also includes Marion Cotillard, Rachel McAdams, Kurt Fuller and Mimi Kennedy, “Midnight In Paris” has been reported as Woody’s highest grossing film to date. Adrien makes a cameo as the artist Salvador Dalí.

Currently, imdb says Adrien is “in production” for “Waco,” about the Waco controversy in 1993, but Desi Hits! suggests that he might also have a new collab in the works. Writer Neha Bhatt reports that Adrien and actor/producer Saif Ali Khan “bonded at the Cannes film festival this year” and “met again in Paris [in June]…to attend a party hosted by an international watch brand.”

A supposedly reliable, anonymous source says “the two had an intellectual discussion on Indian and international films” and want to make a film that Saif would produce. No word on where that brainchild is headed but here’s a photo of Adrien back in May for a Memorial Day get-together.

It still might be ninety degrees outside but it’s not too early to start thinking about your fall wardobe! Check out our version of Adrien’s plaid pashmina today.

Vanessa Hudgens To Play Pregnant Runaway

Vanessa Hudgens may be baby-faced but she is far from a child. Just observe how grown up this starlet looks in her most recent Candie’s shoot. In this photo she holds a mustache mug on a sunken couch wearing jeans and a warm caramel jacket.

With previews for the Candie’s Fall 2011 Back-to-School collection, each ad also includes a Candie’s life philosophy, such as “Candie’s girls never take life too seriously” and “Candie’s girls never forget to treat themselves.”

Who are Vanessa’s fashion heroes? According to People.com, she admires Bianca Jagger, Cher, Miley Cyrus, the Olsen Twins, Ashley Tisdale and Blake Lively to name a few. An interesting mix, but not so surprising considering how often Vanessa raves about ‘60s and ‘70s looks and her love for ladies who “play with fashion and have fun with it!”

Vanessa is also breaking away from her cutesy “High School Musical” image with films like action-drama “Sucker Punch” and the new indie flick she has lined up for 2012: “Gimme Shelter,” directed by Ron Krauss.

According to MovieWeb.com, “Gimme Shelter” will feature Vanessa as “a pregnant teen who becomes homeless after fleeing from her abusive mother.” She seeks out her biological father for refuge only for him to pressure her to have an abortion. She refuses and takes once again to the streets. In another article about the project on ComingSoon.net, a casting call for Vanessa’s part says she is “eventually taken under the wing of Father McCarthy, the chaplain of the local hospital after almost getting herself killed.”

Skeptics aside, this new drama could be Vanessa’s big break! But dressing like an A-list actress in the meantime does not hurt. Here is an example of Vanessa looking Oscar-worthy in a gray pashmina scarf and brown jacket.

In love with the scarf but know pashmina is not in season? Check out our gray two-tone linen scarf! Light for easy summer wear, this scarf is also available in Ocean Blue and Rose Red to add some flare to any outfit.

Kim and Khloe Duke it Out on “Keeping Up with the Kardashians”

As if the Kardashians don’t have enough on their plate, their small fights on “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” keep getting in the way of family time. On a recent show during the new season, Kim questions why Khloe still has photos in her bedroom of Kim’s ex-boyfriends. Not just one, but two, of the frames hold pictures of Kim’s last flames.

Granted she and Kris Humphries have only been together for a short period of time, Kim still takes offense to her ex’s faces being in Khloe’s room. Only Kim knows how she feels about Kris. Khloe doesn’t want to know because she’s used to having to get to know one after the other. You think this foreshadows the end of her and Kris? Well, we’ll just have to wait and see, but in the meantime, the Kardashians must keep from killing one another. This time, Khloe makes peace by throwing the photos, frames and all, in the trash can, breaking them.

Later, Khloe apologizes to Kim and promises to give Kris a chance, but little does Kim know, it’s only to make peace, and not because Khloe wants to accept Kris into their circle. The close-knit family always finds a way of reconciling their differences. We know they always do it in style, too! Kim’s scarf and jacket ensemble highlight her slick ponytail style by making her face pop. The pairing of the black scarf with the tan jacket is a way to keep your colors guessing!

Jennifer Aniston…Or Angelina Jolie?

Jennifer Aniston is always in competition with Angelina Jolie because of her connection to Brad Pitt. E!Online’s “Bitch Stole My Look” compared both divas wearing warm-colored dresses, but at two separate events. Even if Jen would rather not be compared to Jolie, she has to weather the consequences of being Brad’s ex (a burden I”m sure many would take!).

Whether in constant competition with Angelina, or the next beautiful woman on the red carpet, Jennifer proves she is capable of staying at the top. She will be awarded the “Decade of Hotness Award” at Spike T.V. annual “Guys Choice” celebration on June 10. The recognition is a huge honor! The other women who have been chosen for the awards are Halle Berry and Charlize Theron.

Jen is known for her perfect body, perfect hair, and perfect smile. I don’t see how she does it! Not only has she been hot for over a decade, her fashion sense has also been among the most talked about. Summer has brought about some awesome new fashion trends for the Jennifer Aniston in you!

Scarves are not just worn for winter anymore. They are now in style for the summer months as well! Jennifer Aniston sports a neutral scarf paired with a white T-shirt, jeans, and tan wedges. The look is  casual, but sexy and very stylish. You can mix and match a white T with a neutral colored scarf like Jen, or you can add some color with a patterned scarf. Start your summer off with a fresh fashion trend. Lightweight and stylish, these scarves are going fast! Duplicate the look with one of our scarves!

Going for the neutral look like Jen? Try our grey scarf!

Rather have a splash of color? Try our Josie Floral Scarf!

Trendy Scarf Ideas for Spring!

It’s that time of year when the winter wardrobe is packed away and the spring attire takes center stage in your closet. Don’t make the mistake of packing away your scarves, though! We share ways to make the transition to spring!

1. The Perfect Belt

A scarf can make the perfect accent to either a nice pair of jeans or a classy evening gown. Our wide variety of skinny scarves will easily slip through your belt loops to add a spice of color to your attire. Or perhaps, as Anne Hathaway demonstrates, the scarf can be wrapped around your waist to give you the coveted hourglass figure.

2. The Flawless Shawl

A shawl has a myriad of uses. There, of course, is the typical use of a shawl as Angelina Jolie demonstrates beautifully. For another idea, how about using a shawl as a cover up while you’re out on the beach? This simple scarf could give your trendy beach attire some flair!

3. The Timeless Hair Accessory

Head scarves are a perfect way to tame those fly-away hairs on a spring day outside.  For another style, tie a skinny scarf around your ponytail to give you some extra pizazz! Instead of an elastic hair accessory, a scarf can add color and variety to your hair style. Blake Lively excellently demonstrates how a scarf can be mixed between a headband and a hair tie!

4. The Business Accessory

For another trendy look,  use your scarf to accessorize your professional outfit! A neck scarf can be wrapped under a nice collared shirt or looped around your neck. As Janelle Monae demonstrates in the photo below, this style can give your outfit a sophisticated edge. For a similar look, check out the Jill Print Scarf .

These are just a few ideas of how to stylishly wear your scarf this spring!

Dancing with the Stars…and Scarves!

Last week was the premiere of of “Dancing with the Stars” season 12. Once again we can watch our favorite celebrities gliding about gracefully or shaking it flamboyantly on the dance floor – always in some over-the-top dancewear!

I fully admit it: the sparkly outfits are half the reason I love to watch!  Whether elegant and flowing for a waltz, funky and fun for a jive, or fringed and sassy for a Latin dance, the designers do a great job coming up with some glamorous dance dress for the couples every week.

I’m not sure I could pull off the looks that the stars do on the show, but I do know I love the bright colors and the glitter!  But why should such fabulous fashion be only for dance competitions?  In fact, why not pick out a scarf inspired by your favorite DWTS outfit?  Check out some of these shimmery look-alike scarves:

I loved Disney Channel princess Chelsea Kane‘s performance, and her delicate and diaphanous white gown.  To get that elegance for everyday, I’d choose our classic silk scarf in white!

The judges said Wendy Williams didn’t bring out her personality enough in her dance, but her gold dress sure did!  Our new Caitlin Evening Scarf is fit for a diva and perfect for a night out dancing!

Reality star Kendra Wilkinson‘s cha cha had spunk, and her sparkly blue dress was sassy and cute as well — just like the Hilary Sequin Scarf!

Kirstie Alley was back in black, and got one of the highest scores of the night!  If you’re looking to shimmer and shine like Kirstie, have a look at the Carol Evening Shawl.  It’ll have Bruno saying “FABULOUS, darling!”

Don’t forget, the first elimination is happening tonight on ABC at 9/8c.  Who else out there can’t wait for the dances and the fashion we’ll see on this season of “Dancing with the Stars”?

Scarf Stylings of a Princess-to-Be

England will soon have a new princess, much to the dismay of girls all around the world who have been crushing on Prince William for years!

Kate Middleton is the lucky girl. She’s known “Wills,” the British public’s affectionate nickname for the prince, for many years.  The couple met in “uni,” as the English call college, have been going out fairly steadily for the past eight years, and finally got engaged in October of last year on a romantic getaway to Africa.

Already, Kate’s poise and beautiful outfits have made her a style icon, and the British press is comparing her to a very famous late fashion icon, Princess Diana.  William proposed to Kate with his mother’s gorgeous, sapphire engagement ring.

With all those rainy and chilly English days, Kate has to have a stylish array of coats, hats and especially scarves.

On the left Kate sports a sophisticated look of blues and browns for the Cheltenham Festival, with a lovely paisley scarf to top it off.  Another fashionable ensemble in the right picture shows Kate, with the prince in attendance, wearing a prettily knotted, dark brown scarf.

With the royal wedding coming up on April 29, Kate’s style is sure to be in the news more and more this spring.  Will you be following her fashion?  If you want to create a royal look of your own like the princess-to-be’s, take a peek at our brown scarves.  I’d suggest following Kate’s example and pairing pale blues with a rich pattern, like the Alexis Paisley Pashmina.

Tyra Banks: The Ultimate Top Model

The sixteenth cycle premier of “America’s Next Top Model”  had a twist that shocked both the contestants and the viewers. Tyra Banks, the show’s creator and host, pre-selected her fourteen contestants, but at the end, made them believe they had been eliminated. Just when the girls hit rock bottom, Tyra swooped in and surprised them with the news that they were actually all the next top models!

Tyra Banks

With a grandiose start to this season of “America’s Next Top Model,” Tyra seems to have a lot in store for these hopeful models. This show, however, is not the only TV series the model has to juggle. She is also the co-creator of a show called “True Beauty” and is the host of her own Emmy-award-winning talk show, “The Tyra Banks Show.”

On top of all this, Tyra manages to find time to attend prestigious Harvard Business School. During a feature this past Sunday on CBS “Sunday Morning,” Tyra was described as “America’s next top mogul.” Not surprising considering her Ivy League education and the upcoming launch ofher new fashion and beauty website, TypeF.

Tyra’s workload is at full capacity, which makes her seem more like superwoman, rather than a supermodel.

Not to worry though, the icon still demonstrates she is the queen of fashion on a daily basis. She’s often seen in one of our favorite accessories: the scarf! In the photo to the right, Tyra was photographed wearing a silk head scarf over her long, flowing locks. A simple head scarf can add a dash of color to an outfit or hide a bad hair day. For a similar look to Tyra’s, the Metallic Square Scarf in purple or black will add some pizzazz to your attire.

Tyra also pulls off another fashionable look with a different scarf, but this time all of her hair is tucked into the scarf. For a similar look, check out the Trisha Leopard Scarf . Just wrap it around your head and you’re good to go!

Tyra Banks

But, wait! Say you don’t know how to tie a scarf around your head. What are you going to do? Not a problem, we have you covered with our How to Tie a Scarf guide, which demonstrates a myriad of different ways to wear a scarf and look dazzling, including how to tie a head scarf. With these looks, you can be your own top model!
