Fashion Friday: Love it, or Leave It? Jessica Alba Edition


Actress and Mommy of two Jessica Alba rarely gets it wrong with her edgy, boho chic style, but we're not quite sure about this casual red carpet look she rocked at the Experience: East Meets West event in Beverly Hills last night.

The eco-conscious star wore a leather pencil skirt with an extra vibrant Kenzo sweat shirt tucked in, and a hunter green Valentino clutch. The bottom half of this outfit is very heavy with the long, black boots to accompany. While we dig the idea of the high waisted pencil skirt, and love the funness (is that a word?) of the sweater, however we don't love them together. The textures are mis-matched, and it comes across as a little "thrown together" for a red carpet look,

What do you think of Alba's casual red carpet style? Would you love it, or leave it?

Kim Kardashian Gets Vogue Cover (Finally!)


Looks like Kimye wins again!

After years of canvassing for his muse/fiancee/baby mama, Kim Kardashian, rapper Kanye West is finally getting his heart's desire to have Kim pose on the cover of Vogue. According to reports, the most famous Kardashian shot for the cover of the high fashion magazine in L.A., much to Kanye's desire.

Kardashian and Vogue editor have reportedly had a secret beef since Wintour supposedly did not extend an invite to Kim to the Met Gala party in 2013, even though fiancee West was welcome. Many reports have swirled stating that the famed Wintour would never allow the reality queen to pose for Vogue, however it looks like she is now changing her tune.

West has fervently been trying to gain respect in the high fashion world.

A formal announcement (or Tweet) has yet to be made that Kim will actually grace the cover, or when the issue will hit stands, but we're dying to know if the folks at Vogue are behind Kim recent and sudden switch back to her brunette locks..(see the photo below).

Blonde, brunette, Vogue or not, Kanye certainly does go hard for his woman!!

Kim has since tweeted that's she misses her blonde hair.




SodaStream's Provocative Super Bowl Commercial Banned by FOX


Good thing we can watch it online!

SodaStream just released their enticing Super Bowl commercial starring the blonde beauty, Scarlett Johansson, however unfortunately while the burgeoning brand probably shelled out a pretty penny on endorsement and media placement, the commercial won't hit the small screen this weekend. 

While the commercial boasts sex appeal, the main reason for the boycott is due to the mention of Super Bowl sponsors Pepsi and Coke. Fox is not pleased with the reference, and decided to err on the side of caution and put a halt to SodaStream's ad.

 SodaStream CEO Daniel Birnbaum is enraged about the decision, speaking out to USA Today. "What are they afraid of?" Birnbaum questioned. "Which advertiser in America doesn't mention a competitor? This is the kind of stuff that happens in China. I'm disappointed as an American.

Looks like the decision is coming directly from Fox as Coca-Cola spokeswoman Lauren Thompson claims: "I can confirm we did not pressure Fox. Other than that, we don't comment on our competitors' efforts."

This is the second year that SodaStream's commercial has been rejected from the Super Bowl ad festivities.

Check out the commercial below. Do you think the Pepsi and Coca Cola reference is harsh enough to constitute the ban?
