In fashion, where six feet glamazons rule, Rachel Bilson single handedly makes petite chic. Aside from my numero uno-modelesque style icon Alexa Chung, Rachel Bilson is constantly on my humble style radar.
 
Even when she is jet-setting from LAX to YYZ visiting her gorgeous finance Hayden Christensen (footnote-are they still together?), she always looks cute, comfy, and immaculately styled. Her look is an eclectic mix of high-low brands, vintage, and unique accessories.
 
Some might think her look is a bit too understated to be considered a style muse, but it takes a keen …

 
Call me overly pop-saturated, but this girl is just great. Bubbles? Balloons? YES.

 
It’s the Brian Lichtenberg x Forever 21 collection – and to my surprise, featuring Allie Crandell (she was on the first season of MTV’s The City). Turns out the girl is a pretty amazingly legit model as this surely hasn’t been the first campaign I’ve spotted her in. Girl’s flawless. The collection she’s sporting though? Likely not quite up to par – finding all too often Forever 21 seems to get away with amazing photography and less than stellar product (just like my use of adjectives for this post. Awful).

Having been an enthusiast for youth in iconic movies, I was surely not disappointed by the amazing performance by Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart. The Runaways Movie was a collective of imagery and story telling of youth in revolt, girls with drive and a powerful mission, and transformation. To my amazement, it was a film that ended before I could have even dreamed of wanting it to be over.
 
I’m in awe already of Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart – on film, their animated characters come alive. It’s a tale of …

 
Playing dress up in clothing and makeup has always been an extension of my personality – understated yet embellished. After years of tepid experimentation, and many lost teenage years wearing Abercrombie, I know now that when I search for something, it has to be worn effortlessly yet recast my identity. Surely, the process and final look is less erratic, but nevertheless, still me.
 
In fashion, there is a fine line between trendy and road kill- I admire those who so bravely walk on the dotted lines. But after taking a closer …

 
There is a wiki site dedicated to the How I Met Your Mother episode stating that “nothing good happens after 2am“. But  I found out first hand, that from June 14th – June 20th, there could be an exception to that rule, but only on three conditions. (1) 650 bands are rocking out across 50 venues (2) said bars are open until 4am for the NXNE music + film + interactive festival in Toronto and (3) numerous open bar events ramping up to the Much Music Video Awards the same …

 
I’m not much for her music (anymore – hey, we were all 16 year olds once), but I’m liking what NYLON’s done to emo queen. It must be the cool lighting and the clubmaster-like frames.
 

 
Last night, Gloria and I had the opportunity to attend the screening of Sex and the City Two at Bloor Cinemas. The opening reception was giddy with excitement, high heels, Trojan men (handing out condoms), and ladies with pink boas. But who cares about all that, it’s time for us to take two, on the sequel.
 

 
Shop Song was ringing through my headphones for the longest time – and the one accountable for doing this to me was none other than miss PEARL FUTURE (aka Pearly), the next power vocalist emerging from Bay Area, US. We first got in touch through the beauty of social networking – a la MySpace. Being amazingly down to Earth (if you can believe – this girl moderates her own page comments and takes the time to respond), Pearl Future did a little Q&A for urbanebloc.com on her upcoming gigs.
 
She’s …

 
For an actor who plays a famous actor on HBO’s Entourage, Adrian Grenier notes the irony of the fiction that has altered his reality. It is through this documentary, “Teenage Paparazzo” that he steps behind the lens in an attempt to understand and make sense of his new-found fame.
 
The documentary provides a surprisingly deep and honest portrayal of paparazzi in today’s culture that is obsessed with celebrity. The film makes a conscious effort to provide media theories and psychology through interviews with professors, actors, and those in the celebrity business.
 
The …
