Who Wore Christian Louboutin Better? Beyonce | Kim K | Selita Ebanks


Beyonce was spotted wearing Christian Louboutin Mary Jane Platform Pumps earlier today while on a romantic stroll with Jay-z in Paris. Over the past few months celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Selita Ebanks, Jennifer Hudson, Diamond and more have been spotted in the nude 6 inch pumps.

Kim Kardashian wore the Mary Jane pumps while out to dinner with Ciara, Lala, Kelly Rowland and Serena Williams. She paired them with a Robert Rodriguez top, Leila Sham Skirt and an Alexander McQueen Clutch.

Model Selita Ebanks rocked out in the Mary Jane’s a few weeks ago while visiting Pure Las Vegas. She paired the heels with a Jay Godfrey “Predock” asymmetrical kimono sleeve dress from the Spring 2011 collection.

Hot Swimsuit Trends for Summer 2011


Summer is just around the corner, and we all have our hearts set on warm weather and sunny beaches. The swimsuit hunt has begun and it's time to check out the Spring 2011 runways for some stylish inspiration! From Marc Jacobs to Lanvin we've scoured the hottest swimwear trends of the season.

Girly, Girl Trend

This is the season of the girly girl! Ditsy flower prints, ruffles and modest retro silhouettes have hit swimwear in a hard way. Marc Jacobs showed a muted beige and white floral print in a 50's silhouette for his Spring '11 show while DKNY flaunted ruffles on a strapless suit. Suno went ultra youthful with a ruffled white and yellow one piece for a truly nostalgic feel.

Getting Graphic!

The 80's are back in full force, and with them comes graphic prints! Suno's high-waisted bikini was a definite stand-out for Spring 2011 swimwear with it's African inspired print. The bold pattern combined with feminine details is an inspiring direction for swimwear. Vanessa Bruno went for a more subtle plaid suit with daring cutouts while Zero + Maria Cornejo took a classic one-piece design and amped up the style with a subtle abstract print.

Courageous Cutouts

Sexy cut outs weren't left to sassy cocktail dresses and sultry evening gowns this season, swimwear has also slashed out in a major way. Roksanda Ilincic went for a dramatic style with a black strapless piece while Emanuel Ungaro took a girly approach to the sexy style with a floral cutout one-piece. Emilio Pucci dared the revealing trend on a graphic print suit.

My, My Macrame

This macrame trend has us in knots! Emilio Pucci made this unique textile technique ultra sexy with a revealing black one-piece suit, as well as a more playful paisley print beaded bikini. Elie Tahari jumped on the trend with a modest yet captivating strapless suit with an overlay of rich macrame inspired texture.

The REAL Royals of the UK!! The Beckhams!


Kate Middleton aside, there was perhaps no more appearance more anticipated at the royal wedding than that of David and Victoria Beckham. As expected, Victoria wore a tres chic dress of her own design—the voluminous navy blue frock expertly hiding her baby bump—paired with a specially commissioned Philip Treacy hat. David was more dapper than ever, clad in tails and carrying a top hat as an accessory.



Victoria looked spectacular at the royal wedding in a dramatic black headpiece.

Brand: Philip Treacy

Kate's 2nd McQueen of the Evening!


You didn't expect the new Duchess of Cambridge to wear just one gown on her wedding day did you? Of course not! To party the night away and celebrate her new royal status, Kate Middleton changed into a second gown by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen.

Her party outfit was a very simple strapless white gown with a jewel-encrusted belt. Kate kept warm with an angora sweater, but we have a feeling she'll let loose and bare her arms later in the evening. For the party, Kate also let down her hair into her signature blowout, with loose curls framing her face.


We can't wait to see the rest of the pictures of the party goers. Congratulations again to the newlyweds!

Haute Hats at the Royal Wedding


Zara Phillips, Princess Beatrice and Princess Victoria were just a few of the ultra-chic guests decked out in show-stopping hats at the royal wedding. Check out the most stylish, and most daring, headwear of the event!


Miriam Gonzalez, Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg's wife, was a retro blooming beauty in a frothy tulle polka-dot frock, elbow-length gloves and and black pointy-toed pumps. Her dramatic spanish inspired floral turban topped off her perfectly chic look.

As mother of the bride, Carole Middleton did not disappoint! The beautiful socialite wore a tilted pale blue Jane Corbett straw hat with pleated ribbon detailing and an applique design, the perfect choice for a sophisticated and chic style.


Queen Elizabeth II looked perfectly regal in a buttery yellow crepe toper designed by Angela Kelly. The rosette-adorned flat-brimmed hat was an exact match for the 85-year-old queen's primrose dress and coat. Prior to the wedding, many bets were placed as to whether the queen would choose a yellow or blue hat.


Princess Letizia of Spain is renowned for her beauty and style, neither of which disappointed at the royal wedding. In a pale pink cloche hat with an attached bird cage veil, feathers and flowers, the princess looked both feminine and refined.


Prince Albert II of Monaco and Charlene Wittstock were yet another glamorous couple to attend the royal wedding. Charlene looked breathtaking in a pale blue Akris 60's inspired dress that she paired with pearl earrings and a wide-brimmed white sun hat. So elegant!


Princess Beatrice turned heads at the royal wedding in an over-the-top blush Philip Treacy creation. The elaborate bow-shaped topper was attached to a pillbox-shaped hat and matched her Valentino Hatue Couture ensemble. Love it or leave it, the dramatic hat was undeniably one of the wedding's most memorable fashion moments.

The Best and Worst Dressed at the Royal Wedding


The craziness surrounding the royal wedding is finally over. In true Bistro fashion we can't help, but look back at who wore what on the big day. From Victoria Beckham's elegant ensemble to Pippa Middleton's attention-getting Alexander McQueen, check out who wowed and who made us ask 'why?!' at the royal wedding.


Tara Palmer-Tomkinson was a blue, oh so very blue, at the royal wedding. She wore cobalt head to toe, with her dress matching her hat, gloves, shoes and clutch. Either she had the entire look custom-made or had mad luck buying everything off the rack.

Catch More Royal Fashion after the JUMP!!




Princess Victoria of Sweden was all smiles in a bright and cheery peach ensemble. She wore the color head to toe with a wrapped jersey dress and wide-brimmed hat.


Royal fashion maven Zara Phillips, aka eldest granddaughter to Queen Elizabeth II, looked chic as ever at the royal wedding in a silver Akris coat. While no royal wedding look would be complete without an over-the-top chapeau, Zara kept it modern with a sleek leopard-print clutch and Mary Jane heels.


Chelsy Davy, Prince Harry's on-again, off-again girlfriend chose a teal Alberta Ferretti dress and jacket combo paired with a fascinator by Victoria Grant. Apparently, the dress designer flew into London for a final fitting! Unfortunately, it seems Chelsy forgot to set her alarm and didn't have time to do her hair!


Sure, Kate Middleton was the star of the show today, but there was a lot of buzz about her younger sister Pippa Middleton. Pippa looked downright gorgeous in a cream Alexander McQueen cowl-neck gown. The slim sheath hugged her fab figure and it was hard to take your eyes off of her as she walked with the flower girls, bridesmaids and groomsmen.

The Princess Wore Alexander McQueen & Cartier


Of all the titles bestowed upon Kate Middleton upon her royal nuptials, the only one we really care about is HRAF—Her Royal Absolute Fabulousness! The new HRH Duchess of Cambridge said "I do" in an exquisite white satin gown and lace gown by Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen. She topped her Big Day style with the Queen's own 1930s Cartier tiara.

Rihanna Puts a Twist on the Classic Chignon


The R & B singer styled her fiery red locks in a voluminous French twist with a subtle center part. Loose bangs helped frame her face.


Interesting.

Carol's Daughter Announces Three New Brand Ambassadors


Carol's Daughter has picked not one, but three women to represent its brand in a new ad campaign. Selita Ebanks, Solange Knowles and Cassie are the women chosen to star in the multiracial campaign.


Many might not know it, but each woman featured has more than one ethnicity in her heritage—Selita is Caymanian, Cassie has a Filipino father and Solange is half Creole. Carol's Daughter founder Lisa Price says:
"We want to be the first beauty brand that truly captures the beauty of the tapestry of skin types in America. When I say polyethnic, I mean women who are made up of several ethnicities. If you ask them what they are, they’re going to use a lot of different words to describe themselves. That’s in line with the Census data coming out — people are checking much more than two boxes. We believe we’ve put together a shoot that celebrates many different ethnicities, to become a mirror of what America’s really becoming."
The new ads are set to be released in June. We can't wait to see them!

Celebrity Street Style at Coachella 2011

Air Griffey Max II - 4/23/11


TSG confirmed that the Air Max2 Uptempo will return later on this year, and today we give you another Holiday 2011 preview. We broke the news last year about the return of the Air Griffey Max II, and the original colorway will hit stores next month, plus new colors dropping throughout the year. The Griffey line will be heating up Summer 2011, but more new colors of the Griffey Max 2 will be available in stores Holiday 2011. Take a look at the preview after the jump.





1 Stripe, 2 Stripe, 3 STRIPES Are In!!


As an illustration of the point be sure to look at the inspiration pictures below; while most looks rely on bold stripes, you'll see that the trend is just as effective when the stripes are thin. Hence for Summer 2010 look for dominant stripes, not necessarily bold ones.


While Summer's navy and white striped fashion trend isn't a true take on navy inspired fashion, it's likely to appeal to those who are in to the nautical aesthetic. If that's you and you're after some inspiration look to Anja Rubik's sailor inspiration from the June 2010 issue of Vogue Korea. The shoot utilises the season's stripe trend in the form of a dominant blazer, but takes the nautical motifs to far less subtle proportions.

Kelly Ripa Mounts Charlotte Olympia Heels


Kelly Ripa teamed her flouncy ruffled dress and gray tench with black canvas Dolores ankle strap pumps.

Cat Eye for the Summer!!


Far from being a stand-alone trend, the resurgence of cat eye glasses and cat eye sunglasses is rooted firmly in the revival of '50s and early '60s fashion. Some designers featured them prominently in Fall - Prada, notably - and since then a plethora of alternatives have surfaced.


Generally speaking a cat eye frame with rounded-out edges will work wonders for a square face or diamond shaped face. A round face can benefit from sharper edges, or large frames that curve upwards subtly. All that said though, the rules are never hard and fast: the best option is always to try, try, try on pairs until you work out what's right for your face shape and hairstyle.

Paris Hilton Wears House of Harlow 1960 at Coachella


Paris Hilton was among the crowd at the annual Coachella music festival, looking hippie chic in a Tribal cuff bracelet from Nicole Richie's House of Harlow 1960 collection. The 14-karat gold-plated enamel cuff features a contrasting black-and-turquoise zig-zag pattern, which makes for an exotic statement against Paris' floral-print dress and '70s-style headband.
