Olivia Wilde's Tiny Baby Bump Peeks Out On The Red Carpet

Olivia Wilde's Tiny Baby Bump Peeks Out On The Red Carpet:

Olivia Wilde's baby bump made its red carpet debut Tuesday night in Beverly Hills.

The "Rush" actress stepped out for the 2013 International Women's Media Foundation's Courage In Journalism Awards at the Beverly Hills Hotel on Oct. 29. As she posed for photos, Wilde's tiny bump could be seen peeking out from her floral Cushnie Et Ochs dress, Just Jared notes.

The 29-year-old announced that she is expecting her first child with fiance Jason Sudeikis last weekend. She soon took to Twitter to thank everyone for their well wishes.

WOW. You guys are awesome. So kind. Thank you thank you thank you! PS. Babies eat mostly salsa right?

Wilde and Sudeikis began dating in 2011 and announced their engagement in January. Wilde previously told Marie Claire that she would love to have children with the "Saturday Night Live" funnyman.

"We've discussed all our ideals and hopes. I can't wait for children. I'm open-minded about how many, but three, which I love, is like a little party," she told the magazine. "I am not trying to have kids now -- there's no strict plan for anything in my life. What happens, happens. He's so good with kids ... I've never before experienced looking at someone and thinking, 'That's who I want to raise a child with.'"

John Galliano, Kate Moss Team Up For British Vogue (PHOTOS)

John Galliano, Kate Moss Team Up For British Vogue (PHOTOS):

Christmas has come early this year, and our gift is a December magazine cover starring Kate Moss. The issue accompanying the model's 34th Vogue cover shot features another familiar face: John Galliano.

While many still haven't forgiven Galliano for his anti-Semitic rant back in 2011, Moss and the designer are close friends -- in an interview with Vanity Fair this past summer, Galliano insisted that "creating Kate's wedding dress saved me personally because it was my creative rehab [after getting fired from Dior]. She dared me to be me again."

And it seems Kate has dared Galliano to be Galliano yet again, as the pair appear in portrait in British Vogue's December 2013 issue, photographed by Tim Walker. In her editor's letter, Vogue UK editor-in-chief Alexandra Shulman writes that the designer, who styled the shoot, approached the challenge with impressive intensity:

"When I asked John to write a few words to describe his concept for the shoot, I hadn't expected such a vivid picture to arrive, via a series of emails, outlining his inspirations and his feelings, demonstrating the workings of an erudite and passionate brain."


Perhaps Galliano will teach Moss the tricks of the editorial trade, as the model is slated to join Vogue UK as a contributing editor next spring.

"I am now feeling so much love in this studio that it takes me back," Galliano writes alongside the shot. It's clear that Vogue UK, like Oscar de la Renta, is ready to endorse the designer once again, despite many industry insiders' insistence that Galliano continue to pay penance for his past mistakes.

Should fashion feel Galliano's love and take him back? Examine his comeback below.

6 Awesome 'Catching Fire' Photos To Make Your Day

6 Awesome 'Catching Fire' Photos To Make Your Day:

 Days after the final trailer for "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" was released, Variety debuted a surfeit of new photos from the upcoming YA adaptation, including one where star Jennifer Lawrence is literally the girl on fire.

"She's not a diva -- she's the anti-diva,” Nina Jacobson, the "Hunger Games" producer, told Variety about Lawrence. "One of my favorite moments is where she has the wedding dress on for the interview [scene] in 'Catching Fire.' It's a big cumbersome dress, and she fell down, so we played that over and over on the monitors. There's such a lack of pretense with Jen; she's more than happy to laugh at herself."

Check out Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Jena Malone and Elizabeth Banks in the six new "Catching Fire" photos, courtesy of Variety, below. The "Hunger Games" sequel is out on Nov. 22.

What A Man's Shoes Say About Him (According To Us)

What A Man's Shoes Say About Him (According To Us):

 The eyes might be the window to the soul, but shoes are the window to just about everything else. What you choose to put on your feet actually does reflect something about you, whether it be laziness (socks with slip-on sandals), obliviousness (untied sneakers) or keen style savvy (those trendy suede desert boots we love so much).

Plus, it's been reported that women judge men's shoes twice as much as men judge women's shoes -- so guys, it pays to step up your footwear game. Whether you realize it or not, here is what your shoes are saying about you.*

Vans

vans

This low-maintenance guy is easygoing, possibly to the point where "chill" becomes "absentminded." We wouldn't be surprised if he's always arriving to things late.

Desert Boots

desert boots

These suede ankle boots are trendy yet understated, masculine but not aggressive. This guy is detail-oriented and not at all flashy. Needless to say, we really like him.

Driving Mocs

tods mocs

This guy knows style... but he might be a little high-maintenance. Those baby-smooth leather and suede shoes do require much upkeep and care, after all.

Black Dress Shoes

black dress shoes

This guy is pulled-together and knows how to show himself some self-respect, meaning (we hope) he'll show others the same.

Rainbow Flip-Flops

rainbows

With these laid-back shoes on, this dude signals he's super chill without a care in the world. He also probably doesn't feel pressured to succumb to societal expectations (even when maybe he should...).

Timberlands

timberlands

These shoes might be intended for hiking, but chances are this dude hasn't hit the trail in a while. More likely, he's a not-so-rough guy just trying to look tough.

Sperry Boat Shoes

sperry

This guy is a traditionalist, i.e. someone who follows in his dad's footsteps and still wears the shoes he wore every summer growing up.

Merrells

merrells

We hate to be judgmental, but Merrells generally signal a dude's mom is still shopping for him.

Air Jordans

air jordans

This man is a serious sneakerhead... who might miss your birthday or skip out on a date to wait in line for the latest pair of Jordans. Hey, at least he demonstrates commitment?

Converse

converse

A kid at heart who doesn't take himself too seriously.

Lace-Up Oxfords

brogues

This solid, responsible dude means business. He dresses like a true gentleman... so hopefully he is one?

Retro Nikes

old school nikes

He tries to not be obvious about it, but this man really does care about looking cool and trendy. And he's pretty good at it.

Sandals With Socks

socks sandals

This just looks lazy, not to mention silly. This dude somehow missed the memo that socks with sandals are simply unacceptable. You might wonder what else he's missed the memo on...

Vibram FiveFingers

vibram

This guy marches to the beat of his own drum. And that's all we'll say about that.

*We acknowledge that one's personality cannot be determined entirely from one's shoes, and we don't recommend totally writing off men who wear unattractive shoes. But hey, we're still partial to guys with cute kicks.

Just follow their lead:

SPRING 2014 - Art Attack: Blurred Lines between the Runway and the Gallery

SPRING 2014 - Art Attack: Blurred Lines between the Runway and the Gallery:

The line between fashion and art has always been fluid, with some of the world's most influential designers known for creating what can be described as wearable works of art. The connection between art and makeup is arguably even stronger - we're not called makeup artists for nothing! - and personally, I've always been inspired by the work of some of my favorite painters, photographers and sculptors (as seen in my past beauty campaigns and runway looks). And it seems that this season, so have Karl Lagerfeld and Miuccia Prada (to name just a couple). The latest round of international runway shows celebrated art in various forms which echoed through the clothes, the beauty looks, and even some of the exhibition spaces where the runway fought for attention with arresting murals (Prada) and custom-made installations (Chanel). The three trends below stood out to me as driving beauty in new directions. But as I always say with the more intimidating runway trends, find the element of the look with which you can confidently identify... And then own it!!

1. Graphic Arts
Calder. Lichtenstein. Picasso. This season, several designers chose looks that more closely resembled line drawings or even bold graphic prints than makeup. While Haider Ackermann stuck with carbon black liner pulled into dangerously sharp wings and angles designed to look like sketches, Anthony Vaccarello and Céline created eye work in bold blocks that was distinctly reminiscent of American sculptor and painter Alexander Calder. As for Chanel and Givenchy? That was makeup worthy of a frame - and an exhibition at MOMA!

2013-10-30-MBFW2012_ToniMaticevskiRTW_Backstage_KDOG3442HP.jpg 2013-10-30-AlexPerryHP.jpg

Looks I created for Toni Maticevski RTW SS 2012 and Alex Perry SS 2011



Get the graphic look: I love liner as a trend - and the bolder the better! For Toni Maticevski's SS12 RTW show I created a bold look that fused a modern Nefertiti with old-Hollywood glamour by joining a strong brow with graphic, sensuous liner. It was one of my favorite looks of the season because it was strong yet undeniably feminine. Create a modern, graphic eye by lining only the inner and outer corners of the eye with a liquid liner to give the eye shape and leaving the center 3rd bare. Then line the outer corner of the lower lash line, extending up to the natural crease of the eye. To create a lifted look, make sure the angle of the line extends towards the tail of the brow. Then starting at the end point of the liner (at the outer corner of the eye), take the liner back towards the top lash line.

PRO TIP: For a steady application, try dabbing over the eye instead of drawing in one straight line.

2. The Blue Period
Proving that blue eye shadow isn't confined to the 80s archives, multiple designers counted on hues of the shade to create a bold statement this season. The strong blocks of royal blue spotted at Marc by Marc Jacobs gave the looks a very modern feel, especially in the absence of mascara or liner. The models at Badgley Mischka sported a feminine, almost Barbie-inspired take on the look, with a sheer wash of aqua shadow punctuated by a soft pink lip. The Armani show introduced a fresh take on blue with a seafoam shadow diffused all around the eyes for an ethereally beautiful effect.

Spring 2014 looks from Marc by Marc Jacobs, Badgley Mischka and Armani



Go back to blue: This is a little-known secret, but navy is one of the most universally face-flattering shades there is and it looks just fabulous on blondes in particular. I love incorporating shades of blue into a smoky eye. For just a hint of color, work a liner in any blue shade on the upper or lower lash line or scribble over the entire eyelid and blend with a neutral eyeshadow shade to create a no-fuss smoky eye.

3. Return to Innocence
Spring 2014 wasn't all about the eyes with several designers choosing to focus on the perfection of the skin with impeccable, velvety complexions and flushed cheeks. The natural, youthful faces at Marni and Valentino evoked pure innocence and the slightest hint of bronze on the eye at Dolce & Gabbana lent a touch of modern glamour to their look. This is really a look that requires no translation yet that fantastically flawless skin is often the hardest thing to fake.

Get skintastic: In the world of makeup, less can often be more and this is certainly the case here! I'm fanatical about skin, it really has to be perfect if you're going to keep everything else quite bare. Start with a Radiance-Boosting Primer, followed with a liquid or cream foundation a touch lighter than the complexion to highlight the center of the face. Blend the foundation into the skin with your fingertips to truly get that 'second skin' appearance. Sweep a pink blush (with a touch of shimmer) over the cheeks and highlight the top of the cheekbones, bridge of the nose and cupid's bow with a cream luminizer.

Naomi Campbell Conquers The Vivienne Westwood Heels That Almost Killed Her 20 Years Ago

Naomi Campbell Conquers The Vivienne Westwood Heels That Almost Killed Her 20 Years Ago: Models fall on the runway all the time. But no fall is as famous as Naomi Campbell's epic stumble in 1993 during Vivienne Westwood's Paris Fashion Week show.

Sadly, the British supermodel was no match for Westwood's insanely high, lace-up platform heels and her very public tumble is now fashion history. But sometimes, life offers you second chances, and that's exactly what happened for the 43-year-old on Saturday during an appearance on UK's "The Jonathan Ross Show."

After chatting with Naomi about love, life and (of course) anger management, Ross pulled out the infamous Westwood heels and challenged the runway queen to strut in them again.

"The Face" judge was shocked to be reunited with the monstrous shoes after 20 years, but like a true supermodel (or sadist) she stepped up to the challenge.

Reunited once again # my shoes @VivenneWestwood I stayed standing . Thank Jonathan Ross @Wossy had a laugh ! … http://t.co/NmoXnKNUxm
— Naomi Campbell (@NaomiCampbell) October 26, 2013



Dressed in a beaded silver gown, Naomi confidently worked the "Jonathan Ross Show" runway with grace and ease. She had a slight wobble, but totally managed to stay on her feet. Victory at long last!

Watch Naomi's victorious walk in the video below and make sure to check out the second clip for her epic tumble seen around the world.

It happens to the best of them...

Michelle Obama And Daughters Wear Fall's Biggest Trends To Church Services (PHOTOS)

Michelle Obama And Daughters Wear Fall's Biggest Trends To Church Services (PHOTOS): Those Obama girls are such trendsetters. On a trip to church on Sunday, Michelle Obama led her stylish brood in showing off some of the season's key looks.

FLOTUS and Sasha coordinated in shades of deep purple, and Michelle kept the hue current with a pair of black thigh-high boots. And Malia's statement-making coat offered a prime example of the grid-print trend we've been seeing all season.

We've seen plenty of stars like Hilary Duff, Miley Cyrus and Diane Kruger in sexy suede over-the-knee stompers... though we admit Michelle might make the shoes look the classiest. We've even seen FLOTUS rock the thigh-high height before, namely, on a trip to India back in 2010. (What a trendsetter!)

Take a cue from the Obamas and incorporate these terrific trends into your fall wardrobe!
