2011's Most Beautiful

I am not sure I agree with People Magazine making a big fuss over who is the most beautiful celebrity of the year. However, I always want to know who is on the list! Then I heard that Jennifer Aniston was voted Sexiest Woman of All Time by Men's Health readers. I don't really have an opinion on the matter, but I would agree that she does a good job showing her natural beauty. I read an article about her this month from InStyle. She mentioned that she does not like wearing make-up and focuses on cleansing and moisturizing to keep a natural glow. However, of course she does wear make-up, but limits it to natural looking colors. Aniston also mentioned she hates mascara and tints her lashes every 3 weeks. I wish I could afford to do that! And when you have a hair stylist at your beck and call then you will always look great because a nice blow out will make anyone look beautiful, make-up or not!

Here is the list:

J. Lo

Zac Efron

Reese Witherspoon

Jessica Simpson

Mandy Moore

Katie Holmes

Jennifer Hudson

Kellan Lutz

Dana Delany

Emma Stone

*Love her! Especially blonde

Mindy Kaling & Ellie Kemper

Sandra Bullock

Jennifer Lawrence

Eva Longoria

Ryan Reynolds

*Not many men made the list, but of course Ryan did! <3



Then of course Jennifer Anniston on a list of her own.

Donna Karan in the Hamptons

Donna Karan has a beautiful New York City apartment, but her Hamtpon Estate is equally as elegant. Both of her homes have a serene and casual asian feel to them that she appears to love and enjoy. I can picture the queen of all things chic lounging around the waterfront mansion.

I wish DK and I were friends.

Life's a Beach

I leave for my mini vacation on Wednesday, and I cannot wait! We are heading to the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri, and stopping in St. Louis on the way there. I have been packing and planning the past few weeks and recently thought about what easy hairstyles I could do while boating or laying on the lake. I don't want to look like a wet, sloppy dog the whole time, so I need to have a plan! Here are some cute and creative summer styles I found, I might have to try a few out tonight!

Simple Ponytail (Holly Madison)

 Floppy Hat (Gretchen Rossi)

Messy Waves - Created by sleeping with thick braids (Solange Knowles)

Front Braid - with hair up or down (Rashida Jones)

Messy Half-up Do (Alessandra Ambrosio)

High Messy Bun (Chloe Sevigny)

Sleek Bun (Jessica Biel)

Tour of Jennifer Aniston's new NY penthouse

Recently Jennifer Aniston bought a penthouse in New York's West Village. She spent about $8m buying the 17th and 18th floors in this large building on 12th street. The 18th floor one bedroom previously belonged to celebrity hairstylist, Sally Hershberger. I have pictures of the place while Hershberger was still living there, but gives you an idea of the architecture and style Jennifer was going for. The penthouse, which was designed by architect Brad Floyd and decorated by Joe D’Urso, has a funky and bright flare.
