Amber.Stardoll- Let us be prepared for one of the most epic moments in Superbowl's halftime show! Nicki Minaj has confirmed that she will be joining Madonna on stage! She recently wrote this on her Twitter: "Super Bowl rehearsals w/the Queen". Wow, this is just amazing! We can't wait to hear the new single live! We predict that this performance will be unforgettable! (perehilton)
Amzyness1290Heya everyone,

- We spotted Jessica Alba and Cash Warren enjoying a family day out at the park in Beverly Hills with their children, Haven and Honor Marie. They are such a perfect little family! These pics are so heartwarming, they look so happy and they really seemed to enjoy a cozy day off together!

de Sola with her design Partner, Karla Martinez
Ever wonder what a designer does all day? We asked designer, Cecilia de Sola of Piamita, who’s based in Santiago, Chile, to write it all down—on one particularly busy day.
8:00 AM Coffee and papers. This is the bit of time I take each morning to catch up on news, read my blogs, keep up with friends, and deal with any personal things before moving on to work-related matters.
9:00 AM I am at my desk going through emails and my to-do list for the day. We are changing a few things on our website this month so today I am going over layouts and approving revisions to be uploaded on Piamita.com by the end of the week.
10:00 AM It’s still 8AM in New York, so I have a Skype conference call with my partner Karla [Martinez] about our AW 2012 lookbook shoot options, confirmed market appointments, and the design of a new jacket we are working on for the collection. Noon My little bit of luxury for the day: an hour long private pilates class with my friend Carlota Bouquet.

1:30 PM My trusted seamstress Maria Teresa arrives to do fittings for some of the pieces we are working on for the AW 2012 collection.
3:30 PM I review different cotton options and colors for what will be resort 2012.
4:00 PM I go to our factory to check in on the fall fabrics that have arrived for our samples and to oversee some of the cutting and other details related to our SS 2012 production that is well underway. It’s very busy here as we have to perfect some blouses with the seamstresses and pattern-makers before they can be sent down the production line. All requires a lot of attention to detail, patience, and teamwork.
Fabric bolts at the factory
6:00 PM Still at the factory! I have now moved on to focusing on the details of the AW 2012 collection—we’re in the process of perfecting our samples in time for market week.
8:00 PM Back at my desk, I answer emails and put some calls in before the end of the day in New York. I am constantly working with people in three different time zones so I try to get back to everyone I need to before signing off for the day.
9:30 PM I prepare dinner for me and my husband and then happily escape into the latest episode of Downton Abbey.

While we are complete advocates of the don’t-talk-to-strangers-no-matter-how-cute-they-are policy, a study completed by Purdue University has shown that a upward glance and a coy smile might actually be good for you. Researchers found that avoiding eye contact when walking past someone or looking over their shoulder, away from them or “looking at them as if they were air,” has a negative effect on others and can make you feel disconnected. According to the study, you don’t even have to smile to feel more in tune with others, which can lead to feeling better about yourself. Researchers wrote that “people who had gotten eye contact…with or without a smile, felt less disconnected than people who had been looked at as if they weren’t there.” Eric D. Wesselman added, “These are people that you don’t know, just walking by you, but them looking at you or giving you the air gaze—looking through you—seemed to have at least momentary effect.” So next time you’re tempted to glance at the cutie you see everyday after fourth period, don’t turn down the opportunity. It might just make your day and his.

Photo: Sofia Coppola for H&M
Here’s the first look at H&M’s print campaign for their hugely anticipated collaboration with Marni. We already know that it launches in March, and that they’ve hired Sofia Coppola to creatively direct the campaign and accompanying video. Now we know that Imogen Poots stars in the dreamy shots and that the gold brocade suit (dress?) above will retail for around $90. Also, that the partnership will be feted in LA (a new locale for H&M) with a huge party the day after New York Fashion Week. Sounds like London has new competition…

Russian style is difficult for the western world to define, exuding mystery and passion. I interviewed Nightsiren from the Russian Federation.

- Creepers, Het schoeisel dat in de UK helemaal in is. Creepers waren voorheen vooral hip in The Underground Scene. Bij goths punkers en emo's, maar nu wordt de een na de andere hipster met deze snoepjes gespot. En terrecht! Ik vind ze meer dan awesome en pleit ervoor dat ze ook in Nederland hip worden.

Zoals jullie vast al wel gezien hebben heeft Stardoll 150.000.000 leden bereikt :)
Een site die klein is begonnen en nu al zo veel heeft bereikt. kan niet wachten tot we het dubbele hebben bereikt.
Ik heb er zeker geen spijt van dat ik ooit begonnen ben aan Stardoll, en kan niet wachten wat voor nieuwe spulletjes en gadgets ons nog te wachten staan.
Wat vinden jullie? :)
