Celebrity Haircut: Paris and Nicky Latest Hairstyles

Paris Hilton and Nicky Hilton arrive at the Express Celebrates TXT L8TR Campaign at Nobu on July 29, 2009 in West Hollywood, California. Let see how we can copy these Celebrity Hairstyles.


Paris Hilton Straight Celebrity Hairstyle

This throwback to the 70's combines bone-straight strands with a long sharp center part that creates a V-shape at the forehead. Shorter sections in front add interest to the look, which is best styled with blower and flat-backed brush, followed by flat ironing. Lastly, place the headband over the forehead, that simple.


Nicky Hilton's Pob Celebrity Hairstyle
The Pob with symmetrical, edgy version of the traditional bob haircut or the classic bob with a twist. The great thing about the bob is that it's a look that can be customized to suit your style and bone structure. You can go with straight and sleek or choppy and asymmetrical.

Jourdan Dunn - Mom to Be



Vogue.com broke the news on their site with an article filled with suggestions on what the 19 year old supermodel in the making should wear in the coming months. Dunn is reportedly due to have a son in December which means that we probably won't see much of her during Fashion Week this fall.

Reaction to Dunn's pregnancy seemed overly judgmental on message boards this morning with some people expressing "disappointment" that the teenager (who is also a legal adult with a steady income) is pregnant.

For the record, lots of models start families very young. I hope that after the birth of her son Jourdan's career will continue to flourish, like supermodel Natalia Vodianova, who also gave birth to a child at age 19 with much less finger wagging.

Solange Does The Big Chop



I don't generally pay much attention to Beyonce's little sister but I have to admit I was a little surprised to see this photo of her sporting a TWA (teeny weenie afro) this morning. The girl may not have the chops, looks, or appeal of her older sibling but she's definitely proved that she's gutsy for stepping out of the shadow of Bey's lace-front and letting the sun shine down on those follicles.

Sigh.

Anytime I see a picture of a woman with super short natural hair like this I miss the days when I sported the style. I can still remember how good it felt the first time I took a shower with my new 'do and felt that warm water pouring over my scalp.

Now if only Solange could record some music to match the fierceness of her new look...

Jada Pinkett Smith on the Cover of SHAPE



A bit much on the Photoshop don't you think? Jada has a nice figure already, I don't know why the editors felt the need to do this. The water looks computerized, her skin doesn't even look real and the head looks like it came from another photograph.

8/09 US Vogue - Worth a Look


Vogue's annual age issue, like the shape issue can be pretty hit or miss. This year's issue features a cover story on supermodel Christy Turlington which I still haven't gotten around to reading yet. The rest of the issue is filled with the typical Vogue editorials, beauty articles and profiles. Nothing to get too excited about but there are a few high points that make the issue worthwhile.

#1 Liya Kebede


She only gets a one photo and three paragraphs but the copy mentions her children's clothing line and her charitable work with the WHO and her recent honor by the Gordon Parks Foundation. The accompanying photo shows Kebede (her handsome husband in the background) wearing a stunning red Thakoon dress.

#2 Anna Cleveland


She may not make the same impact that her mother, 70s top model Pat Cleveland did in her heyday but Anna has been making an impression on the runway, booking shows with Zac Posen, Caroline Herrera and DVF.

#3 Pat McGrath


The always in-demand makeup artist shares her "must have" list of products and makeup tips. She keeps her own routine simple with a solid skin care regime, soft neutral colors and of course, mascara. She's worked behind the scenes on many makeup launches but I'm hoping that she launches her own line one of these days...or at least releases a makeup book.

#4 Shingai Shoniwa of The Noisettes


Shingai is as stunning as she is talented. When I got their first CD from the library a year ago, it was in constant rotation on my iPod. There was a time She and her band are currently promoting their second CD "Wild Young Hearts."

#5 Jenny Lumet


Vogue profiles the upper crust homemaker turned sought after screenwriter. Lumet, the black/Jewish daughter of Sidney Lumet and granddaughter of screen icon Lena Horne wrote last year's critically acclaimed "Rachel is Getting Married" and is currently working on a script about race at Brooklyn's International High School. Her own view on race, she shares, were influence heavily by her grandmother whose participation in the Civil Rights Movement nearly ended her career.

July Italian Vogue Supplement Dedicated to Black Barbie Dolls



It's not exactly on par with last July's "black" issue of Vogue Italia but it is interesting. This month's Italian Vogue includes a supplement issue that traces the lineage of Mattel's black Barbie dolls, from "Francie" (launched in 1967) and 1980's first official black "Barbie" named doll to current incarnations.


The Cut thinks this is a cleverly timed cross promotion for Mattel's new line of black "So In Style" dolls created by Stacey McBride-Irby.

I'm no collector but I do love looking at the dolls. The "So In Style" models are pretty cute even if they only seem to have one body type.

Ariel Meredith for Diesel Intimates & Underwear






At first glance these look like something a Terry Richardson devotee would have shot for American Apparel. I guess Diesel is trying to jump feet first into the "edgy" underpants market.

I honestly don't know what to think of these. The phrase that keeps coming to my mind is "Girl, you need to call your people to come and get you!"

Don't get me wrong, Ariel is beautiful and has a great figure for lingerie but personally speaking, I've never fantasized about at clothing optional party where I'm the only chick present in the shot and a white guy who looks like European Jesus rubs lotion on my belly. Call me old-fashioned. There are more photos at the Diesel site featuring two white female models in their skivvies but their booties are unmolested.

Iman Poses with Oldest Daughter Zulekha Haywood


S: Myspace/TFS

Just posting this pic because I always wondered what Iman's oldest daughter looked like this days. I've only ever seen one other photo of her and in it she was still a very young. Zulekha is Iman's daughter from her first marriage to NBS star Spencer Haywood and from the looks of it, has grown up to be a very beautiful young woman.

Jourdan Dunn Shooting Ads for Maybelline



This pic I found via TFS, taken from Jourdan's Twitter. It's a behind the scenes photo from the ads she is doing for drugstore cosmetics giant Maybelline. I have no idea what the timeline is or when we'll start seeing the work but good for her, hopefully she'll be more center stage than some other black models Maybelline uses for its print work and commercial ads.

OT: En Vogue to Star in Reality TV Show?



From ONTD:

The group, which is comprised of Dawn Robinson, Terry Ellis, Cindy Heron-Bragg and Maxine Jones, are cementing their return to the music scene, after a lengthy break, with a new album later this year.

Now, they want to give fans an insight into their 20th anniversary reunion by documenting their trials and triumphs on TV.

Dawn Robinson says, “It’s just another venue to get our music out there. The industry has changed. It’s not just about getting a record deal anymore. It’s about exposure.”

Terry Ellis adds, “Twenty years in the business is a long time and we’ve had a lot of fun in the process, but there’s also been some ups and downs and we’d like to share some of that.”

I'm not a big fan of scripted "reality" TV* or the cadre of completely useless people who become famous for appearing on it but I would be so in to watching an En Vogue show. I loved watching and listening to those beautiful brown skin women, back in the day they were more affirming than anything in a magazine for me. I hope this gets picked up and I hope it's not by BET.

*With the exception of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, which I know is trash but it just amuses me so much.

Popular Razored Crop Hairstyle for Men

Wanner get a new trendy short hairstyle? The razored crop hairstyle will places you on the cutting edge. Turn to the razor for a haircut that’s sharp, edgy and modern. This short hairstyle is really cool for men: It’s both elegantly shabby and foppishly put together all at once.

Diego Luna Razored Crop Hairstyle
Popular Razored Crop Hairstyle for Men Because of its spiky, uneven layers, this dashing hairdo establishes a swanky, chic look just beyond the lines of conservative fashion,this short haircut gives you a sharp, confident look.
Razor cutting and slicing techniques eliminate weight from the hair while creating wispy texture at the same time.The high jagged bangs create a window that highlights the eyes, while the lack of height through the top allows this hairstyle to be worn by longer and rounder face shapes alike. Since it’s a modern take on a classic cut, the razored crop pushes the envelope for a more contemporary appearance.

No man's style illustrates this point more than that of Diego Luna. His razored locks are carefully disheveled, creating a professional and dapper image that’s edgy and smart.

How to ask your hair stylist get this cool Razored Crop Hairstyle
You can ask your stylist to leave most of the length on top and some on the sides, then to use a razor to blend it all together, which will create jagged, uneven layers.This is really a perfect hairstyle for young men!
