The {new} Girl With The Dragon Tattoo

I have been pretty excited about this movie from the moment I finished the last book in Stieg Larsson's trilogy, and from these gorgeous photos of Rooney Mara in this month's Vogue, it appears that Lisbeth Salander has been quite perfectly cast. Also starring Daniel Craig as Mikael Blomkwist, this film is shaping up to make for some serious eye candy. Now let's just hope they fare a bit better than the Twilight crew as far as the acting is concerned.

Pretty in Pink {and Red}

Emma Stone rocked the red carpet last week at the premier of  No Strings Attached Friends With Benefits. (Anyone seen this yet? Should I wait for netflix?) This girl seems to be taking  Hollywood by storm lately and she was looking gorgeous with a capital G in this hot pink and red Giambattista Valli ensemble. It helps when you have awesome red hair to complete the look. This bright, bold color combo is quite the show stopper. Not sure I could pull it off myself, but I do love these shades together!

Get Shorty

As much as I am loving all of the lace shorts, scalloped shorts, silk shorts, yes even culottes (hello 5th grade flashback anyone?) and all the other fancy schmancy short styles around, I must give a shout out to my go to summer uniform, vintage denim shorts . There is nothing better than throwing on a perfectly broken in pair of denim shorts on a weekend morning (or in my case, any morning since they are totally acceptable attire where I work). Levi's 501's are a true classic, but any pair of jeans past their heyday will lend themselves to the perfect pair of shorts, so get out your scissors and get to work!

How amazing do MK and Ashley look in this photo?! (Despite the fact that they are legit fashion icons, I will forever think of a 7- year old Michelle Tanner when I look at them).

If you are not so keen on getting all Edward Scissor hands on your favorite pair of Citizens, here are some styles from some favorite denim brands, the next best thing to making your own since most of the "breaking in" is already done for you. It's like you've had them for years.

Abercrombie & Fitch STACY short, Current Elliott paint splatter boyfriend short, Abercrombie & Fitch RANDI short, J Brand boyfriend denim short

A far cry from the good 'ol classic, but it is hard not to love these colorful bad boys that take it up just a notch.

G is for Gwyneth

From the pages of last month's UK Bazaar to the Met Gala, Ms. Paltrow is one woman who has been looking absolutely fabulous lately.  Style crush? Guilty.
