The Hottest Over-The-Knee Boots For Fall

Amber Fijolek on Oct 19, 2009 10:17 AM PDT

So what if you're not Sienna, Paris, Gwen, Heidi, or Hayden? You can look just as hot by scaling your stems like they do with the tallest pair of boots you can find. Whether you're sporting a short skirt or a pair of skinny jeans, some over-the-knees or thigh highs are the perfect way to warm your legs this fall. Although our budgets couldn't get us the same shoes that our favorite celebrities rock, it's still possible to get this look that's become trademark of some of our favorite female stars. Unlike our cowboy and ankle boots, these boots are capable of flashing an intriguing slice of skin when paired with short bottoms-- and showing less skin can often be sexier as it leaves the curves of your legs to the viewer's imagination. However, like our other closet companions, you can make a casual or formal step in tall flat boots or a high-heeled pair. Find a look that works for you in the slideshow!

Which Reality Beauty Looked The Best At The 2009 Fox Reality ...

Ida Hsiang on Oct 17, 2009 9:23 AM PDT

You're amongst friends here so go ahead and admit that it's a not-so-secret guilty pleasure that we'll change our real lives around to fit the schedules of these "real-life" shows. They claim to be reality television, giving us a glimpse into a moment of the lives of some of our favorite (or forgettable) celebrities. What exactly are they so famous for again? And why are we paying them more than the President to sit around and live out their lives as usual? From Paris Hilton living on a farm, to the documentation of Adrianne Curry's quickie and sudden marriage to a Brady to Kim Kardashian showing us how much she doesn't need to work, we just can't get enough of these pseudo-celebrity lives! But watching their lives that are so much more glamorous than our own is not enough, now we want to give them awards for it. So our favorite reality celebrities to love (and love to hate) gathered for the 2009 Fox Reality Channel 'Really' Awards and, unlike their oft over-the-top personalities and styles on screen, they showed up in surprisingly sophisticated looks. Who do you think looked the best at the 2009 Fox Reality Channel 'Really' Awards? Is it Kim Kardashian with looking stunning in a simple grey sheath dress and layered locks? Or is Adrianne Curry's knee-length, sexy one-shoulder LBD and smoky eye that keeps your attention? Even Paris looked polished and lady-like in a one-shoulder, glittering mini and retro-inspired hair. Vote for your favorite in the poll below!

The Secret Life Of A Fashion & Celebrity Photographer

Adriana Nova on Oct 7, 2009 10:20 AM PDT

Imagine that your office is a fashion show runway. Your work assignments typically go by one name (RPattz, Gisele, Brangelina), and if disagreements with your colleagues turn physical, well... hardly anyone bats an eye. Sound surreal? If you're a successful celebrity and fashion photographer like Getty Images' Frazer Harrison, it's all in a day's work. The world of celebrity and fashion photography is a rough-and-tumble one -- a Wild West of cameras, competition, and confrontation that is not at all for the weak of will. "Everyday is a challenge," shares Harrison. "You battle everything from Los Angeles traffic to overzealous security to your equipment. You're worried about lighting, your position on the line or the runway. So many things can go wrong and it's up to me alone to make sure that I limit the fail rate." With such a pressure-filled job that hundreds of other photogs are doing anyway, why is it worth the stress? "Any working or amateur photographer will tell you: it's when you see a particular picture published. Front pages are always a satisfying feeling. And really, no two days are the same, which is why after all this time it is still fresh and fun to do." With over 25 years in the business covering fashion week shows, red carpet events, and celebrity news, Harrison would certainly know, and has stories to burn. His most memorable moments include everything from covering Michael Jackson's infamous trial to an impromptu photo session with Paul McCartney to getting unprompted career advice from a certain "Jerry Maguire" star, who punctuated her speech with, "'Oh, by the way, my name's Renee." As far as equipment, Harrison prefers a Nikon D3 camera, and his trick to getting the best shots is: "If you saw it [happen away from the viewfinder], you probably didn't get it. Concentrate, stay focused on what's happening around you, and try to predict what's going to happen before it does. And add to that a bit of luck." And what advice does the seasoned photog have for us everyday point-and-shooters? "Those mug shots of celebrities after they've been arrested? They are what you don€™t want! Generally speaking, there are numerous things you can do to improve your chances of taking a good pic." Read on for tips on how to hone your own camera skills, then check the slideshow to see some examples of Frazer's best work!

Paris Hilton Shops At Barney's In Yumi Kim's 'Woori' Dress

Lisanne Silverman on Aug 3, 2009 12:19 PM PDT

Paris Hilton was recently photographed at Barneys wearing a very cute strappy green dress and white hot accessories. Regardless of your opinion of the heiress (or if you even have one), you've got to admit she looks pretty well put together. And I think I finally understand why celebs like Paris make such a point of dressing up just to go shopping. After all, they do say you should dress for the job you want, and if looking hot and shopping are career goals, then she's well on her way! As for me, I'll just settle for owning her dress. It's the Yumi Kim 'Woori' dress in Green Pixie, available on the designer's e-shop for a surprisingly affordable $210.

Celebs Hit Up The Cannes Film Festival For A Star-Studded ...

Alex Gambardella on May 21, 2009 10:26 AM PDT

The Cannes Film Festival, one of the world's oldest and most prestigious celebrations of cinema, isn't just a film major's dream getaway. Aside from taking place in an unbelievably gorgeous resort town that alone could lure even the most distracted and unappreciative movie-goer, the festival is the go-to event for everyone who's anyone in the film industry for networking, premiere-hopping, and just plain lounging in resort style. This year's festival, its 62nd edition, began on the 13th with Disney's new 3D film "Up" and lured out film execs, Oscar winners, musicians, and socialites alike from their Hollywood haven (not to mention from destinations all over the world). Since its kick-off, the festival has been proceeding on with more buzzed-about unreleased, independent, and overseas films -- from Jim Carrey's "A Christmas Carol" to Pedro Almodovar's "Broken Embraces" -- with many more much-anticipated masterpieces packed in through its closing day, the 24th. While it seems the stars, including Eva Longoria, Tilda Swinton, and even Paris Hilton (but then again, what event doesn't she squeeze herself into?), are spending more time stomping the red carpet than basking by the beach, but no matter which screening or luncheon they're whisked off to next, they're always looking their vacation best, whether buttoned-up or bikini clad. Take a look at the slideshow for some of the stylish celebs spotted at Cannes! Photo credit: PR Photos
