    "Twilight" Madness: Which "New Moon" Merchandise Is Creepiest?

    image
    Alex Gambardella on Nov 21, 2009 9:19 AM PST
    At the risk of sounding super dorky, I'll admit that I've read the Twilight series... more than once. And sure, if I had to pick, I guess I'd say I'm on Team Jacob, but I mean... I wouldn't exactly call myself a Twi-hard. So what if I saw "New Moon" at midnight?! Alright, fine, I'm kind of a Twilighter... but I'm definitely not alone! After all, it's hard not to succumb to the year's ultimate guilty pleasure when you're surrounded by it everywhere you look -- and in light of the "New Moon" Westwood premiere last Monday, "fanpire" fever is undoubtedly in full effect if it hasn't been already! T-shirts, jewelry, makeup... you can hardly go into your favorite store anymore without seeing something emblazoned with R-Pattz's face on it. However, despite my borderline inappropriate crush on Taylor Lautner, I'm a firm believer that there are certain boundaries that need to be observed when it comes to obsessing. Sure, the very nature of the vampire-centric series is eerie in itself, but some Twilight toys and t-shirts take fangirl freakiness to a whole new level. I mean, what is the purpose of a life-size cardboard cutout? And no matter how badly you may want your own icy Edward Cullen to snuggle with, do you really need a duvet cover with his face on it? Vote below on what "New Moon" paraphernalia is the most ridiculous!

    Who Had The Best 'Do At The "Good Hair" Premiere?

    For a celebrity, it's always vital to look your best wherever paparazzi might be present (like, uh, everywhere?)... so naturally a Los Angeles film premiere is no occasion to slack off, no matter how casual the affair. But when the film is Chris Rock's docu-comedy "Good Hair," the pressure is on to be more than just impeccably clothed. Last week's Westwood debut brought forth a throng of fashionable ladies to the red carpet, including Gabrielle Union and Nia Long who both showed off bouncy curly coifs that hardly seemed as high-maintenance as the film subjects' stressed-out tresses. And Eve and Raven-Symone were looking perfectly polished from their feet to their follicles with their shiny straightened locks that at least looked fuss-free and effortless (and that's all that matters, right?). Vote below and tell us who you think had the best hair at the "Good Hair" premiere! Photo Credit: PR Photos

    If You Haven't Seen "The September Issue," Here's Why You Should

    Anna Wintour. Just her name can cause successful designers and big-shots in the fashion industry to tremble slightly in their butter-soft Italian leather boots. The well-known, cold, and demanding character of Miranda Priestly from "The Devil Wears Prada" was said to have been based not so loosely around Anna Wintour. Of course, when they announced "The September Issue" was coming out, all fashionable females and style-savvy men were more than a little excited- a real look into the conception and making of, arguably, the world's most famous fashion magazine, often unofficially referred to as the Bible of Fashion Magazines? At first, you'd almost almost expect the documentary to showcase Anna barking orders, tearing apart people's hard work and making life in general miserable to all those around her, just because she can. While there are instances where she leans towards behaving much like her fictional movie counterpart, you get to see a surprisingly softer side of Anna that includes genuine smiles and sincere praises. You get a glimpse into her personal life with input from her daughter and candid comments about her family, revealing they don't take her role in fashion quite as seriously as many of us do. You get to see that her ruthless, no-nonsense attitude comes more from a need to be efficient in a hectic, ever-changing, fast-paced world and that, despite the fact that she may eliminate many seemingly great ideas and projects born from blood, sweat and tears, there is no malicious intent behind it and that she does indeed have a great eye for what makes an issue 'perfect.' Most importantly, you realize that, although she is aware of her status in the fashion industry, she truly appreciates those around her that have raw talent and help make Vogue what it is today, like long-time colleague and friend, Grace Coddington, and that she believes in new talent, like her help with promoting Thakoon. So if you consider yourself a fashionably knowledgeable individual, I recommend that you hurry to see this movie and let it open your eyes!

    Alex Gambardella on Sep 22, 2009 6:29 AM PDT
    Immersed in a digital age where Flip camcorders and iPhone cameras and Twitpic rule the world of picture-taking, it can be easy to lose touch with the retro photo technology of yore (or even of just a couple months ago). Celebrate the way things were with this Film Roll Alarm Clock. Perfect for the film buff or photography major (or for anyone who accidentally smashed their old alarm clock in a half-asleep AM rage), this roll of film won't help you take any quality pictures, but it will help you wake up and get yourself to class on time! After all, considering the alarm clock is just about the most loathsome timepiece in existence, you might as well make the dreaded early-morning blaring more tolerable with a dose of cuteness!


    Price: $62
    Who Found It: xgalexy was the first to add the Film Roll Alarm Clock to the Hive.

    The Coveted Takes A Peek At Sephora's Window Theatrics

    I didn't partake in any Fashion's Night Out activities-- too much temptation to spend my life savings. But this Sephora event in New York looks like it was awesome. Temptu, famous for their airbrush makeup, created living art at the Sephora on 5th Avenue, recreating work they've done for cinema and fashion. They crafted a variety of looks, like those from an Italian Vogue spread, Robert DeNiro's character in Cape Fear (if only DeNiro had looked so yummy), and the movie The Stepford Wives. I'm not quite sure where I would wear numbers all over my face, but I totally would if I could find the right occasion! They really drew a crowd as they airbrushed models in the storefront windows for eight hours. They also lured tons of customers looking to get airbrushed and photographed for a mock fashion mag cover. Now that's a good time! Check out The Coveted for the latest happenings in the fashion and beauty world!

    Rumer Or Rachel: Who Wore Her Stella McCartney Blazer Better?

    Fashionistas who invest in a Stella McCartney piece are probably looking forward to an outfit that's sexy, stylish and unique... Unfortunately, when you're fashionable and famous, it's not rare to find someone spotted on the red carpet wearing the same thing! But you can't really blame the actresses who were inadvertently playing "twinzies" for the day -- both Rumer Willis and Rachel McAdams looked hot in their Stella McCartney Lace Noir blazers, and both succeeded in making it their own at their respective events! Rumer wore hers at the "Sorority Row" premiere, belted over a pair of tight black dress pants and suede pumps, while Rachel rocked hers overseas at the Deauville Film Festival, tucked under a high-waisted skirt with black peep-toes. Both chic red carpet looks, but who wore it best? Vote below on which actress you think did the Stella blazer more justice. Photo Credit: PR Photos
