Style du Jour, Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July everyone!

As America is getting ready to celebrate it's birthday today [Fun fact: America is officially 233 years old today] I am writing today's Style Du Jour, also today is my mom's birthday and I need to run some errands and buy some last minute details before all the last minute shoppers take over the city to get ready for today's celebration!

This weeks Style du Jour is being taken over by new comers! How many times is Diane Kruger going to amaze us? Isabel Lucas is being dubbed the next BIG thing, the new IT girl and I can see why her style is fantastic, summer style inspiration for sure. Cheryl Cole is also a new comer to my Style du Jour section, I love what she's wearing but I dont really like her style she seems like she's trying to be Victoria Beckham.

Dolled up fashionista's once again reign supreme, do you prefer dressier more glam looks or casual laid back looks?

Beyonce, Zoe Saldana, Mischa Barton, Rihanna, Olivia Palermo, and Megan Fox.
Diane Kruger, Stella McCartney, Marion Cotillard, Diane Kruger [yet again :) ], Cameron Diaz, and Isla Fisher.
Isabel Lucas, Kelly Ripa, Isabel Lucas, Cheryl Cole, Dasha Zhukova, and Keira Knightly.
Do not adjust your screens! This is in fact a picture of Tara Reid looking... Well pretty fabulous at Diddy's annual White Party.
It's been a week since the death of a icon and the media is going into overdrive making sure everyone is informed on the details of his kids futures or about his money or whatever. Leave the poor man alone, let him rest in peace already! I refuse to watch any news show that talks about him. I did however watch the video of his final dress rehearsal [two nights before his death] and the man still had the moves! Well, here is a picture of designs that costume designer Dennis Tompkins, who worked with Michael Bush to create an “over the top” wardrobe for Michael's This is It tour. What a show is would have been! Michael Bush-Tompkins/Bush archives

Are you liking the creations? I love them! What do you think about how the media is handling this?

xo xo,

Mimi

Diane never disappoints me, her style is always perfect. I really like what Marion Cotillard is doing lately, and almost all the outfits at that certain White Party.

I am glad that Tara still is invited to parties...Also I love Diane Krugar...she is soley responsible for making Joshua Jackson hot again.

NODtoMOD said...

tara reid is looking better! i totally love the nautical blue and white stiped mini skirt...just might have to make one for me!:) happy belated 4th...hope you had a blast! fab pics! xo

Meg said...

Isabel Lucas does seem to be getting a lot of fashiona ttention. And Megan Fox has been doing so many promotions of Transformers lately that she's bound to have some good looks.

Sol said...

I agree on Diane Kruger never seising to amaze.. her style is always impeccable. Isalbel Lucas is just so naturally pretty, and so carefree that her style is just so refreshing. I'm dying to see how her style develops now that she's on the spotlight.

The Haute-Shopper said...

Hope you had a great 4th of July and had a great time on your mom's birthday! I can't believe how well-dressed Keira is! And you're right about Diane Kruger... she's always so effortlessly stylish.

Love the MJ designs for the stage. Thankfully I've not been paying a lot of attention to the media (I'm guessing it's worse in the States than it is in Europe). I did think the whole memorial turned out better (more tasteful despite the hype) than I thought it would.

love and youth said...

i think tara looks nice and healthy, and i hope she stays like this! x

Cris Lazoru said...

That's tara? omg! looooved keira's dress. And MJ really know how to dazzle with his clothes.

archivingfashion said...

Great pics - All of them! I especially love Isla Fisher's look though...so ladylike and adorable!

Eddie said...

First and foremost I apologize for not visiting as of late. I also apologize for not taking part in your TAG as I've been heavily swamped with work. Teaching children can be a handful and I occasionally end up dragging my work to home.

In between all the madness, I find it difficult to muster up the strength to whip up a witty story or explanation as to what adventures I've experienced. I will get shit done though. Writing is my passion and there should be no excuse, especially when blogging buddies like you (hag alert!!) visit me unconditionally to express their love for me.

Beyonce looks hot in the very first pic in this post and I think that dress fits her beautifully. I cannot STAND her mother's fashion line (CRAP!!) and how Beyonce is in constant advertising pose but this dress is an exception. Is it even her mom's design? I doubt it.

Peace and Latin love...

electric feel said...

celebrate the 4th!
hope everything is ok, my dear!
