Qualche giorno fa, alcuni di noi della crew hanno visto Carol con Cate Blanchett e si sono perdutamente innamorati non solo della storia e della fotografia ma anche dello styling e degli outfit della protagonista. Ci è venuta quindi l’idea di racchiudere in un solo articolo foto di tutte le protagoniste o attrici di film che pensiamo abbiano avuto dei look veramente belli o memorabili. Dall’abito iconico a pois di Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman al look di una giovanissima Jodie Foster in Taxi Driver fino a una stupenda Julianne Moore in A Single Man.… ve ne vengono in mente altre?
The other day a few of us went to see the movieCarol. We fell in love – not only with the plot, but also with the styling and outfits of the leading lady Cate Blanchett, so we decided to do a post showcasing some of the most beautiful and memorable looks we’ve seen on the silver screen. From Julia Robert’s iconic polka dot dress in Pretty Woman, to the young Jodie Foster’s outfit in Taxi Driver, and right up to the stunning Julianne Moore in A Single Man…who do you think we’ve left out?

Gisele Bündchen. The top model and her family, her husband Tom included – a professional football player –, are followed by a chef that personally prepares all their meals, even breakfast. He is very strict in the selection of ingredients: no to refined flours, iodized salt and Solano vegetables that is potatoes, eggplants and tomatoes which, according to him, favor inflammations.
Beyoncé. Completely giving up all animal proteins is not easy, but it’s definitely doable for just a few days. This is the concept on which Beyoncé’s 22 days of nutrition is based on. During the most stressful times, she chooses a rigorously vegan nutrition that allows her to stay in shape and more focused.
Madonna. The singer is always full of energy and her secret could reside in her strict macrobiotic diet that bans wheat, eggs, meat and milk-derived products, opting for the use of “marine vegetables”, that is seaweed. Probably one of the most difficult diets to follow…but we all know Mrs Ciccone has always been extreme in all her choices!
Gwyneth Paltrow. After finding out she was allergic to numerous food groups, the beautiful actress converted into a diet based simply on saturated food. The first rule is to eliminate bread, red meat, milk and tomatoes. There are instead plenty of centrifuges! If you are thinking this kind of diet might be boring, check out It’s All Good, the cooking book in which she shares her favorite recipes!
Victoria Beckham. Posh Spice tried several diets, but her favorite one is the alkaline diet, ba sed on maintaining your body PH balance between 7.35 and 7.45. How? Favoring vegetables and almost completely eliminating red meat and cheese and drinking lots and lots of water! Megan Fox. The secret of having a well trained body like Megan Fox? An intense workout, of course! But also the 5-factor diet, that consist in consuming 5 meals a day that contain the 5 basic elements (healthy fats, water, vitamins and lean proteins) cooked in 5 minutes. A real Masterchef challenge!
Katy Perry. Mushroom lovers: it’s your time! The American singer has admitted her love for the M Plan diet, which allows you to eat only mushroom at lunch or dinner for at least 14 days. She assures immediate benefits for your body both as far as strength and focus are concerned but also tonicity.
Drew Barrymore. The beautiful actress follows a daily detox program invented by one of America’s most famous nutritionists, Kimberly Snyder, which entails a diet based on vegetables with one day dedicated only to juices and centrifuges.
Kylie Jenner. The youngest of the Jenner/Kardashian family, loves food just like her sister, but she is very careful what she eats and very serious about her workout. Although she was eating healthy, she always felt tired without any apparent reason. The answer arrived in the shape of lactose intolerance. By eliminating all the food that contains it, she started to feel in shape, active and super sexy. She also managed to lose a few extra pounds, result of a chronic inflammation caused by the intolerance!

Yeah, this happened. David Beckham is the new designer (and face!) of two H&M collections. These are the Modern Essential selected by David Beckham and David Beckham Bodywear collections, and we love it. The new collections are absolutely cool: the minimal attitude, the comfortable fabrics, the sportwear expertly mixed with glam, this elements make Modern Essential and Bodywear a must-have for the next season. “When H&M asked me to pick my favorite pieces from their Modern Essentials collection, I was so excited because they’re exactly the sort of pieces that I love to wear right now. I love the traditions of menswear, and how they evolve over time. It’s great to see classic pieces with a fresh twist, like a new cut or cloth, mixing together tailoring with more casual styles. Each piece looks great on its own, and I can put them together in my own way to create my own personal style.” -David Beckham for H&M LIFE David Beckham for H&M dates: Bodywear lands in H&M stores and online on 4 February; Modern Essentials Selected By David Beckham lands in H&M stores and online on 18 February.

È successo. David Beckham è il nuovo designer (e volto!) di due collezioni H&M. Sono le collezioni Modern Essential selected by David Beckhame David Beckham bodywear collection. Le due collezioni streetwear sono assolutamente cool: l’attitudine minimal, i tessuti comfort, lo sportwear sapientemente mixato al glam, questi elementi rendono Modern Essential e Bodywear due collezioni must-have per la prossima stagione. “Quando H&M mi ha chiesto di selezionare i miei pezzi preferiti dalla loro collezione Modern Essential, ero molto emozionato perché erano esattamente il tipo di abbigliamento che amo indossare. Amo la tradizione del manswear, e il modo in cui evolve nel tempo. È fantastico reinventare pezzi classici con un tocco fresco, come un nuovo taglio o tessuto, mixandoli e adattandoli ad uno stile casual. Alcuni pezzi sono bellissimi da soli, e posso abbinarli alla mia maniera per creare il mio stile personale.” David Beckham per H&M LIFE La collezione David Beckham Bodywear sarà disponibile negli store H&M e online a partire dal 4 febbraio. Modern Essential selected by David Beckham sarà invece disponibile dal 18 febbraio.
Paris Haute Couture is both astonishment and wonder. Not just for the details covering the dreamy gowns, but also for the backstage where some of the most iconic looks of the season are created. Here are the 5 must-try beauty trends that marked the runways. MAKEUP Luminous skin. The magic word is: highlighter. It will have to become your best ally to enhance your complexion and the natural beauty of your face. The use of matte foundations is strictly forbidden: this Spring opt for a golden moisturizer or a BB cream, that will allow you get this look in just a few seconds. Graphic Eyeliner. Undoubtedly the most difficult trend to replicate in our everyday life: you will have to keep practicing with the eyeliner’s little brush before being able to achieve these levels of perfection! This detail gives a sophisticated look while defining the gaze and it works well both for both night and day in a lighter version. Smokey eyes. A great comeback! And we did not expect it for Spring. Jean Paul Gaultier offers a dramatic 1980’s version that is definitely unconventional. Choose this for the evening, you’ll get a rocker allure with every look. HAIR Natural Hair. Undo the braids, it’s time to embrace the natural texture of your locks. Wavy and a bit messy, with hair barely done. Say goodbye to flat iron and curling iron, hairpins and bobby pins; even when worn up, hair is soft and deconstructed. Hair Accessories. What is better than an accessory to give a regal tone to your hairstyle? Dust off headbands and tiaras, we can get back to being queens for a day (or a night). The winning choice is in a natural detail; flora and fauna will be next season’s safe bet.

L’Haute Couture a Parigi è sinonimo di stupore e meraviglia. Non solo per i dettagli che ricoprono gli abiti da sogno, ma anche per i backstage, dove vengono creati alcuni dei makeup più iconici della stagione. Ecco invece le 5 tendenze di bellezza, trucco e capelli, da non perdere che hanno caratterizzato le passerelle. TRUCCO Pelle luminosa. La parola d’ordine è: illuminante. Dovrà diventare il vostro migliore amico, per valorizzare l’incarnato e fa risaltare la bellezza naturale del viso. Vietato usare i fondotinta con effetto mat: questa primavera scegliete una crema idratante colorata o una BB cream, che vi permetteranno di ottenere questo look in pochi secondi. Eyeliner grafico. Sicuramente il trend più difficile da riproporre nel quotidiano: bisognerà fare un po’ di pratica con il pennellino prima di riuscire a raggiungere questi livelli di perfezione! Questo dettaglio però dona un’aria sofisticata e definisce lo sguardo ed è adatto ai look da sera ma anche da giorno, in versione light. Smokey eyes. Un grande ritorno! In primavera poi, non ce l’aspettavamo. Jean Paul Gaultier poi ne propone una versione scenica anni Ottanta decisamente fuori dalle righe. Sceglietelo per la sera, dona un’allure da rocker a ogni look. CAPELLI Capelli naturali. Sciolte le trecce, è il momento di abbracciare la texture naturale delle chiome. Mosse e spettinate, con una piega appena accennata. Addio alla piastra e al ferro per i ricci, addio a mollette e forcine: anche i raccolti si fanno soft e destrutturati. Accessori per capelli. Per dare un tono regale all’acconciatura, quale migliore scelta di un accessorio? Rispolverate cerchietti e tiare, possiamo tornare a essere regine per un giorno (o una notte). La scelta vincente è un dettaglio naturale, flora e fauna saranno protagoniste della prossima stagione.
