Sarah Jessica Parker for Vogue

Allie Paxton — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 09:00:00 +0000

Sarah Jessica Parker appears on the cover of Vogue for her sixth time on the 2011 August issue. Parker is simply stunning in Mario Testino‘s photoshoot.

Since the shoot took place in a domestic setting, she wanted husband Matthew Broderick and kids, son James Wilkie and twin daughters Tabitha and Loretta to be included in the shoot. This might be the most personal photoshoot SJP has done yet.

Sarah Jessica Parker dons fabulous pieces by designers Oscar de la Renta, Proenza Schouler, Chanel and among many others.

According to Sarah, Carrie would be proud of the elegant designs she had the privlege of wearing; the only things missing were some Manolo Blahniks.

You go SJP!

Summer Awards Season continues with the CFDA Award Highlights

LuLu*s ! — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 00:00:00 +0000

The fashion Oscars have arrived! The CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) Awards were handed out last night! Celebrities, models, and (of course) designers gathered for the event!

The top winners included Marc Jacobs (my fav!) for Womenswear Designer of the Year!!

Rag & Bone for Menswear Designer of the Year.

Alexis Bittar was awarded Accessories Designer of the Year.

Other highlights of the ceremony included Ralph Lauren with the popular vote victory and Donna Karan celebrated her 25th Anniversary in the industry!

Time now for my favorite looks of the night. First up, Jessica Biel! Normally we see her in classic neutrals (borderline blah), but not this time! She wore a lively printed dress by Diane von Furstenberg. The dress complemented Jessica’s glowing complexion and showed off her playful side. The big jaw dropper for me was Sarah Jessica Parker in an Alexander McQueen gown. The dress made her look like a butterfly with every shade of purple imaginable incorporated throughout the dress.

Who are your favorite designers?

Hats Off to Sarah Jessica Parker!

If you’ve been keeping up with Sex and the City 2, then you’ll have heard about the stunning looks seen at the film’s different debut locations. Of course, no one knows how to turn heads quite as well as Sarah Jessica Parker herself!

Parker is fond of pairing gorgeous Alexander McQueen gowns with eye-catching Philip Treacy hats. Above is the look she wore to the 2008 London premiere for the first Sex and the City Movie. I especially love the combination of butterflies and green roses. It’s so unique, whimsical and perfect for her soft chiffon dress.

This premiere’s look, also in London, is a bit more risky and not my favorite. However, I still love a gal who can rock a daring accessory. Kudos to that!

Sex and the City Update: Aidan or Mr.Big?

Kathleen McHatton — Thu, 13 May 2010 00:00:00 +0000

Sex and the City fans everywhere are no doubt greatly anticipating the release of the second movie later this month. If I wasn’t excited by the first trailer, the newest ones have me floored.

Upon seeing Carrie’s past love interest, Aidan Shaw, added to the mix, I quickly cried to my roommate, “What are they doing to me?”

A lover of the good guy with no tricks up his sleeve, I was a big Aidan fan and disappointed to see him go. Bringing him back now would just be toying with my heart.

That’s when I wondered what other fans thought. Were there any second thoughts in regards to losing Aidan, or was Mr. Big the right choice?

I took a quick poll of fellow LuLu*s workers who watched the show, asking if they’d choose Mr. Big or Aidan for Carrie’s soul mate. Outcome: Mr. Big won by two votes.

While many of us would have picked Aidan ourselves, there was a general agreement that he wasn’t right for Carrie. Now, that I can understand.

Now it’s your turn: Who would you choose? And please, no spoilers!

Time to Get Carried Away

Kathleen McHatton — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 02:00:00 +0000

I don’t know about you, but I’m already excited to see the new Sex and the City movie due to come out this May!

I thought the first movie did a great job at keeping the story of the show alive without making things way too dramatic or over the top. The core of friendships and relationships was explored in a meaningful way. I’m interested to see what happens in the sequel. The girls are pretty much settled down (except for Samantha, of course), but it looks like it’s going to be quite the adventure.

When I saw the first movie in theaters, the place was packed, and I swore I heard the popping open of a champagne bottle somewhere in back. This tells me diehard fans will make a celebration out of the release for sure!

So I got a little “Carried away” myself and named this cute little Hello Lover Top after one of our favorite fashionistas.

Trend Alert: How To Wear Knee High Socks

Kathleen McHatton — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 01:00:00 +0000

No longer just a uniform accessory for school girls, knee high socks are making a big comeback this season for women of all ages. Spied constantly on the stars and repeatedly on the set of Gossip Girl, these socks are truly strutting their stuff!

The look is so easy, simple and cute. These socks especially make a great transition piece for fall, allowing you to transform shorts or a skirt into a colorful, weather appropriate outfit.

I love them paired with a sophisticated oxford heel or cute bootie, as seen on Blake Lively below. They also make a perfect couple with the growing trend of tall boots as seen on Victoria Beckham and Jessica Alba (below).

Available in many different colors and prints, these stylin’ socks are taking the center stage when it comes to fall wardrobes everywhere. If you want in on the trend, check out our new collection of knee highs.

My favorites? The Argyle Addict Knee High Socks in Brown and the Kawaii Crocheted Knee High Socks in Teal.

Must See Halloween Movies

Kathleen McHatton — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 01:00:00 +0000

Whether you’re going out or staying in for Hallows Eve, cuddling up on the couch with a cup of hot cider and watching some scary movies with a couple of friends sounds divine. I’ve compiled a list of movies us girls here at Lulu*s adamantly believe are a must see for this time of year.

So call up the girls and pop in a DVD. There’s mystery in the air. Halloween is on its way.

1. Hocus Pocus – Halloween wouldn’t be Halloween with out this cult classic. (Amuck, Amuck, Amuck)

2. Practical Magic – Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman are magical.

3. Casper – This friendly ghost is still cute and not so scary

4. Sleepy Hollow - This movie has just enough mystery without being too too scary. Plus, Johnny Depp stars. Need I say more?

5. The Adams Family – For when you feel like your family is dysfunctional.

6. Rocky Horror Picture Show - Another cult classic you need to experience at least once and then year after year after year.

7. It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown! – Because sometimes we need to feel like a kid again, even if we’re too old to trick-or-treat.
