Jennifer Lopez teams up with Guess to create tour merch

OHMYGOSSIP — Jennifer Lopez has partnered with Guess to create her ‘It’s My Party’ concert merchandise.
The ‘On The Floor’ hitmaker turns 50 in July, and is gearing up for her much-anticipated birthday live shows – which kick off with a date in Los Angeles on June 7 – and J.Lo, who appeared in the brand’s Spring 2018 campaign, has revealed that the American clothing brand will provide the tour’s merchandise that will be sold within the concert venues.
Guess captioned a photo of the singer: “Let’s Get This Party Started. Introducing @guess x @jlo as official partners for the #JLoItsMyParty Concert tour Exclusive concert merch coming June 7 swipe for a sneak peek! #JLOxGUESS (sic)”
Guess will provide custom pieces for the ‘Limitless’ singer and her back-up dancers during their much-anticipated live shows, and will include a range of concert T-shirts and a Lopez-inspired pop-art style denim jacket, which will be available online and at the tour’s venues.
Lopez took to Instagram wearing the denim jacket from the Guess line and wrote: “I looooove my new birthday suit. Swipe to see!!!!!!! #TourJacket courtesy of @Guess. #JLOItsMyParty #JLOItsMyPartyTour (sic)”
And the ‘Love Don’t Cost A Thing’ chart topper has previously given her fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the outfit process for her upcoming tour, and insisted that she wants her looks to be a “statement”.
Speaking in a YouTube video titled ‘Making The It’s My Party Tour: Two Weeks To Go’, J.Lo said: “It’s an exciting part. It’s one of my favourite parts to do. It’s actually very intricate. People just think, ‘Oh it’s fun, let’s pick clothes.’ For me it’s really part of the whole narrative of the show.
“This has a lot of passion and emotion in it and a lot of feeling in this section. We have to kind of think of how naturally it came together. What I thought the song should be and the type of moment should be, the question is just what are they wearing when that happens? It just needs to be a statement.”
The ‘Second Act’ star also wants her outfits to be both “sentimental” and “fun”.
She added: “It’s the one moment where we’re just not it’s a party! We’re having fun! Let’s celebrate. It’s the one moment where we put some sentimentality and feeling into it.”

Ashley Graham: ‘Fashion lacks diversity’

OHMYGOSSIP — Ashley Graham says fashion in still lacking in diversity.
The curvy 31-year-old model is proud to represent a different look in modelling but she still believes the fashion industry has a long way to go.
Speaking to Harper’s Bazaar UK, Ashley said: “What I’m most proud of is that today’s teenagers are witnessing the progress towards more inclusion in the industry. We still lack diversity on the runway, but I appreciate designers like Prabal Gurung, Christian Siriano and Michael Kors, who have been pioneers for these changes. I feel hopeful that things will continue to change.
“I have had to learn to take a step back and acknowledge that things that were never possible are now possible. I’m so proud that young girls are finally looking in the mirror and saying: ‘I love you’.”
Ashley also revealed that she prefers to label herself as “curvy” rather than “plus size”.
She explained: “How you identify is up to you to decide, not anyone else, which is important to remember. If you identify as plus-size, that’s fine. I started using the term curvy, not because I am no longer a part of the plus-size community, but because body positivity is a broader community than we can imagine. There are girls who are size eight who sometimes say they can’t find clothes, and there are girls who are size 24 who are saying the exact same thing. We have to cater to all types – not only women, but men too.
“I want to advocate for equal representation for all curvy women – all sizes, races and ages.”
Ashley is thrilled that she can be a positive role model for curvy women and she loves meeting women who she has inspired.
She explained: “I’ve met so many women who’ve cried in my arms and told me that by sharing my story and my struggle, I’ve allowed them to share theirs. You know, I’ve been the girl alone on the bathroom floor, crying my eyes out because I didn’t think I was good enough. When you meet someone who has given you the authority to say ‘I’m better than I thought,’ that’s a big deal. It just takes a couple of people stamping their feet and saying: “This isn’t the way that we’re going to be treated any more.”

Vogue Williams blasts Khloe Kardashian

OHMYGOSSIP — Vogue Williams has blasted Khloe Kardashian for promoting diet shakes.
The 33-year-old model and DJ was horrified when she saw that the reality TV star promoting the weight-loss supplements on social media, calling it “dumb and dangerous”.
She said: “I saw Khloe Kardashian pushing a flat tummy shake but those shakes have got laxatives. I hate all that sh*t. It’s dumb and dangerous.”
Vogue also revealed that she doesn’t believe in dieting.
The star welcomed her first child Theodore, with husband Spencer Matthews, 30, eight months ago and although it didn’t take her long to get back in shape, Vogue insists it was exercise rather than a fad diet that helped her.
She told Fabulous magazine: “I don’t believe in dieting. I did a juice diet years ago and that made me sick. If you want to try to tone up or lose weight, the only way to do it is to up your exercise and start eating a little more healthily.”
Meanwhile, Vogue is not the only star to blast Khloe for promoting weight loss and detox products. Jameela Jamil has become a champion of body positivity in recent months as she’s been taking to social media to call out the star for pushing the products.
Commenting on Khloe’s post in April, Jameela said: “If you’re too irresponsible to: a) own up to the fact that you have a personal trainer, nutritionist, probable chef, and a surgeon to achieve your aesthetic, rather than this laxative product … And b) tell them the side effects of this NON-FDA approved product, that most doctors are saying aren’t healthy.
“Side effects such as: Possible Flat Tummy Tea side effects are cramping, stomach pains, diarrhea and dehydration … Then I guess I have to.
“It’s incredibly awful that this industry bullied you until you became this fixated on your appearance, that’s the media’s fault. But now please don’t put that back into the world, and hurt other girls, the way you have been hurt. You’re a smart woman. Be smarter than this. (sic)”

Vanessa Williams to launch HSN clothing collection

OHMYGOSSIP — Vanessa Williams has a new clothing collection with the Home Shopping Network.
The 56-year-old actress has joined forces with the HSN to design her own range of clothing, which will be released on July 11.
The range has been designed as “an exclusive collection of relaxed, yet elevated designs that celebrate the beauty in every woman”.
Vanessa will appear live on the Home Shopping Network on July 11 to promote her women’s apparel line.
This come after it was recently revealed that Grammy, Tony and Emmy-nominated performer Vanessa has signed a deal with the Sterling/Winters Company, a subsidiary of Kathy Ireland Worldwide.
The star now works with the Sterling/Winters Company for management representation in all areas of her career.
She said in a statement: “I am thrilled to join the stellar team of Sterling/Winters Company [and] Kathy Ireland Worldwide. Their excellence, knowledge and bravery in every facet of multiple businesses, makes me so excited about my future and very secure with my diverse career opportunities.”
In 2016, Vanessa released a fashion collection, V. by Vanessa Williams, which was available to buy on digital commerce firm Evine Live.
And the star revealed her designs were inspired by her own personal style.
She said: “I love animal prints, but python more than leopard, boho chic and jeans leggings with a strappy sandal. A jacket with a really great shoulder is a great staple to have. I would love to add more shoulder pads within my collection – it’s a clean way to look sharp and give a great shape on top.
“Everything I build I want to be able to wear a bra with. I want to be sure that when wearing [a top or dress with] spaghetti straps, that there’s enough material [for support]. A lot of women my age, plus a little younger, want to wear a bra.”

Michael Kors: ‘Laughter is key to beauty’

OHMYGOSSIP — Michael Kors says laughter is the key to beauty.
The 59-year-old designer is a close friend of supermodel Kate Moss, 45, and he attributes her huge success to her sense of fun.
He told The Observer: “No one ever looks more fabulous or more beautiful than at the moment they start laughing uncontrollably. It’s better than a facelift!
“People think of chic as something that’s quite serious, but it’s not true. All the chicest women I have ever known have had a great sense of humour. Like Kate [Moss]. So chic! And she loves to have fun.”
Michael also defended fashion against accusations it is “trivial” and explained that the right outfit can instantly give someone more confidence.
He said: “Is fashion trivial? I don’t know. I know that the world is a complicated place. But I take myself back to the fact that when I watch a man or a woman try five things on, there will be one piece that makes him or her sort of stand differently, when they look in the mirror. The attitude changes, the confidence changes. Your whole day changes. I believe in the magic of the right thing. And I love that fashion can give you hope.”
Meanwhile, earlier this year, Michael revealed his spring campaign was inspired by 22-year-old Bella Hadid’s “casual glamour”.
The campaign was based on the “connectivity” of the younger generation, as well as the relaxed beauty of the model and other influential female celebrities.
He said: “People Bella’s age, the whole idea for them is not just the actual physical travel, they’re always on the move, whether it’s physically going to a new place or also [being active].
“I mean, Liz Taylor and Sophia Loren were not kickboxing. Nor were they attached to their phones 24/7. That connectivity — the younger you get, the more extreme it gets. So we wanted to sort of capture all of that movement that is part of today’s culture.
“Bella or her sister [Gigi] or Blake Lively or Rihanna or Taylor [Swift], they’re casual. They’re glamorous and casual, so we had to somehow get all of that into it.”

Jodie Kidd ‘felt’ like two different people during modelling career

OHMYGOSSIP — Jodie Kidd felt like she was two different people at the height of her modelling career.
The 40-year-old blonde beauty has previously opened up about her struggle with anxiety when she reached her late teens and now the star has revealed that as much as she loved wearing different creations from “incredible designers”, she would also want to be at home “relaxing” and go to the supermarket “without being recognised”.
Speaking to The Guardian, she said: “I’ve spoken a lot about experiencing anxiety from being in the public eye when I was very young.
“I felt as if I had work-Jodie, who would dress up in wonderful creations from incredible designers, but I also just wanted to go to the supermarket without being recognised.
“I love being at home in a cashmere jumper, drinking a glass of wine and relaxing, being out and about in my Belstaff [racing] leathers, or being on the catwalk, dressed up in Chanel. It’s so difficult to say which I prefer, I love them all.”
And Jodie recalled when she wore a four foot wide wedding dress in 1998 for Yohji Yamamoto’s show in Paris, and the star admitted that she was chosen for the particular look because she was the “strongest” model.
She added: “When I walked for Yohji Yamamoto in Paris. He said to me, ‘You’re the strongest model we have and I want you to be the bride.’ I thought, ‘How brilliant!’ And then I thought, ‘Why would he say strongest?’
“He took me out the back where this ginormous bamboo structure was waiting for me. There was a white brace going across my shoulders and bamboo went from my waist out to the hoop underneath the dress. All the weight was supported by my shoulders.
“I don’t know how I made it through; the skirt covered the first rows on either side of the catwalk. It was this wonderful, terrifying moment when everyone was under my skirt.”
The British fashionista went on to confess that she has often been very “uncomfortable” in the creations she’s had to wear on the catwalk.
She added: “I remember opening at Givenchy, for Alexander McQueen’s first ever show, wearing a corset. They had got my waist down to about 15in (38cm). I was trying not to hyperventilate.
“So I’ve been very uncomfortable in shows before, but at least I didn’t feel as if I was about to pass out in the wedding dress. It was just fun and different; I loved it.”

Duchess Meghan wanted wedding dress to ‘represent’ change

OHMYGOSSIP — Duchess Meghan wanted her wedding dress to “represent” change.
The 37-year-old former actress married Prince Harry at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle in May 2018 and she walked down the aisle in a custom-made Givenchy gown, which featured a five metre-long silk veil that included intricate floral detail representing all 53 countries of the Commonwealth.
The stunning bridal gown was designed by the French fashion house’s artistic director Clare Waight Keller, and the 44-year-old designer has now opened up about what it was like to work with the royal and revealed that the Duchess of Sussex wanted to “carve out” a new idea of how a royal should dress.
Speaking to Grazia UK, she said: “We talked about the ceremony, the implications of her coming into the family and what her role was going to be in the future, and what she wanted to represent, what emotions she wanted to portray, how she wanted to carve out a new idea of a way to dress for a royal, and also the magnitude of it.”
And Meghan worked closely with Clare to get all of the small details perfect for her big day.
Clare said: “She was so excited about the whole thing. It’s all those little things when you’re working with such purity, everything matters – the bateau neck and where it cut on her bone, the hem at the front was 2cm shorter so you could see the point of her shoe, so she looked like she was floating.”
The fashion guru also admitted that she had to remain completely confidential about the dress and even kept her lips sealed when speaking to haute-couture designer Philippe Venet – the late Hubert de Givenchy’s long-time partner.
Clare added: “It was like a doctor’s law, in that you don’t talk about your patients, so I just stuck to that principle.
“Because it felt so small and intimate up until that point. No one else was involved, it really was just the two of us for so long, I simply didn’t grasp the scale of it. Then on the day, driving through streets and streets lined with people waving, that overwhelming realisation that actually, this is going to be enormous…”
Meghan’s wedding to Harry, 34, was watched by 1.9 billion people worldwide and Clare insists that she and the former ‘Suits’ star – who this month gave birth to the couple’s first child Archie Mountbatten-Windsor – now have an “unbreakable bond”.
She said: “I think the magic of that being so intimate and so personal for so long felt incredibly special because it evolved from a designer and client relationship very quickly into a friendship, in that we’ve got such a comfort level with one another and shared so many special moments.
“I suppose we have a sort of unbreakable bond in that sense, when you’ve experienced something very few people have together, so it goes deep.”

Jennifer Aniston’s Friends haircut is ‘timeless’

OHMYGOSSIP — Jennifer Aniston’s hair guru says her iconic Rachel look from ‘Friends’ is “timeless”.
The 50-year-old actress became a hair style icon in the mid-90s when she sported the feathered bob style in the sitcom which was copied by countless women all over the world.
The look was created by Jennifer’s hairstylist and close friend Chris McMillan and celebrity colourist Michael Canale, both of whom still work with the Hollywood star today.
And Hollywood hair guru Canale – who has also worked with Carolyn Murphy, Kyra Sedgwick and Denise Richards – has revealed that he was responsible for the “sunkissed” tints in the iconic cut.
In an interview with Vogue Australia, Canale said: “Jennifer Aniston was just starting in her career and was filming the pilot for this new show called Friends. At that time, I was considered one of the top colourists in the country, especially in Beverly Hills.
“This was her big debut and Jimmy Burrows brought her to us. She had medium brown hair at the time, a little past shoulder length. I gave her a sun-kissed blonde look with feather-thin highlights, and Chris McMillan shortened it all around.
“That was in 1994, and all these years later, her cut and colour is quite close to what we did back then. We went with that great feather-thin highlighting around her face and a centre part – and it still works today because it’s really quite timeless.”
And the A-list colourist explained that “maintenance is key” when it comes to getting the perfect blonde.
He said: “I think over bleaching can be ageing, particularly when the look starts getting brassy or yellow. Dark roots can also be a bit jarring, so maintenance is key.
“When I’m doing colour, I start with the undertone of the skin: if you have a cool undertone and are using warm colours on your hair, you might end up looking like you’ve got more of a ruddy complexion; if you have a warm undertone and are using cool colours, a woman can end up looking washed out.”
Canale also insisted that stylists should match your colour to the “undertone” of their clients’ skin to get it perfect.
He added: “I think colour looks great and lasts longer – and doesn’t age a woman – if the undertone of the skin is considered versus just pulling colour out of [a] magazine and matching to that. Finally, use great products! Your hair will look better, the colour will last longer, and working with your natural colours, your hair will look more natural as it grows out!”

Miranda Kerr fixated on husband’s flaky skin

OHMYGOSSIP — Miranda Kerr says the first thing she noticed about her husband was how “flaky” his skin was.
The 36-year-old supermodel tied the knot with Snapchat co-creator Evan Spiegel in 2017 and admitted that although she immediately thought Evan – with whom she has 12-month-old son Hart – was “cute” she couldn’t help but pick up on his incredibly dry complexion.
In an interview with New Beauty, she said: “I thought, ‘Oh, this guy is cute, but wow, his skin is flaky!'”
The former Victoria’s Secret star – who also has eight-year-old son Flynn with ex-husband Orlando Bloom – went on to explain how she instantly offered Evan a product from her line of holistic skincare products, KORA Organics, and her man now has “glowing and radiant” skin.
She said: “I was like, ‘Why don’t you try this,’ and I gave him the Noni Glow Face Oil. Ever since, he hasn’t stopped using it! He always says, ‘Oh my God, Miranda, this is the only product that has helped my dry skin’.
“Now, he won’t go anywhere without it. His skin, let me tell you, it is absolutely glowing and radiant now. It’s incredible to see the benefits firsthand, right in front of your eyes.”
Miranda launched KORA Organics in 2009 and recalled the moment when actress Gwyneth Paltrow decided to stock her products on the website of her “modern lifestyle brand” goop.
She said: “It’s funny because I remember giving Gwyneth the products when I had launched in 2009. At the time, she was talking about how she just started this website called goop, and I was like, ‘Oh! That sounds right up my alley.’
“Now our products are sold on her site, so it’s really come full circle. I know the self-tanner is flying off the shelves because she texted me recently and said, ‘This tanning lotion is incredible. I can’t believe the sales. It’s crazy!’ ”

Alicia Silverstone urges K-Swiss to go cruelty free

OHMYGOSSIP — Alicia Silverstone has urged K-Swiss to make their shoes cruelty free following the brand releasing a range of sneakers inspired by her movie ‘Clueless’.
Last month, the footwear brand dropped a line of sports shoes based on the clothes that feature in the iconic 1995 coming-of-age film – in which Alicia stars as high-school student Cher Horowitz who turns her back on materialism – made up of two variations of its Classic VN sneaker, both featuring the iconic plaid print worn by Cher in the film.
However, the 42-year-old actress – who is a long-time vegan and advocate for animal rights – has now revealed that although she “digs” the sneakers, she wishes the company would ditch leather from its products.
Sharing a K-Swiss campaign video on Twitter, she wrote: “@KSWISS Cher digs this look but wishes it was #CrueltyFree and made without leather (sic)”
The brand then responded to the critique insisting that certain shoes in their lines are “100% cruelty free” and that it’s their “top priority” to make their entire range cruelty free in the future.
The company wrote: “We are thrilled that Cher digs the look! We completely agree with you, the plaid shoe is 100% cruelty free, and this year we have new materials partners for our first four conscious, recycled, cruelty-free shoes. Every company MUST make this transition, and it’s our top priority. (sic)”
The ‘Crush’ star previously insisted that she makes “good, responsible” choices when it comes to clothes shopping, and admits most of her wardrobe is made up of second-hand outfits or from eco-friendly brands.
She said: “When I can’t buy vintage, then I like to buy clothes that are new because there are companies that are making really good, responsible choices, and when that happens it’s very exciting.
“So I like to buy clothes from those brands and support them. Most of my closet is secondhand or eco, but sometimes something else will slide in there that’s not eco and not secondhand.”

Rihanna sends SZA a Fenty gift card

OHMYGOSSIP — Rihanna sent SZA a Fenty Beauty gift card after she allegedly experienced racial profiling shopping at Sephora.
Earlier this month, American R&B singer SZA vented her frustration after a security guard at one of the beauty stores in Calabasas, Los Angeles, approached her to make sure she wasn’t shoplifting.
SZA, 28, tweeted at the time: “Lmao Sandy Sephora location 614 Calabasas called security to make sure I wasn’t stealing. We had a long talk. U have a blessed day Sandy (sic)”
She added on Twitter: “Can a b**ch cop her fenty in peace er whut (sic)”
In response to the incident, Rihanna, 31, sent the ‘Love Galore’ hitmaker a Fenty Beauty gift card so she could purchase her products without any hassle.
The card came with a handwritten message that read: “Go buy yo Fenty Beauty in peace sis! One love – Rihanna.”
Posting a picture of the card to her Instagram stories SZA wrote: “Tanks queen @badgalriri. (sic)”
In 2017, the ‘Weekend’ hitmaker appeared in a Fenty Beauty campaign for her line of Matte Moiselle lipsticks – a range which was stocked at Sephora stores.
Following the incident of apparent racial profiling, Sephora – which SZA used to work for – messaged her on Twitter to apologise for what happened.
The tweet read: “Hi, SZA. We’re sorry to hear about your experience at our Calabasas store and appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
“We want to let you know we take complaints like this very seriously and are actively working with our teams to address the situation immediately.
The company’s social media post added: “You are a part of the Sephora family, and we are committed to ensuring every member of our community feels welcome and included at our stores.”

Karl Lagerfeld’s memorial planned for June in Paris

OHMYGOSSIP — A memorial for Karl Lagerfeld is being planned for June in Paris.
The late designer’s former fashion houses Chanel and Fendi have teamed up with his eponymous brand to stage a commemorative ceremony titled ‘Karl For Ever’.
The event will take place on June 20 during Paris Men’s Fashion Week at the Grand Palais – the venue of his Chanel shows since 2005 – and will be orchestrated by theatre and opera director Robert Carsen.
Karl passed away in February this year at the age of 85 and as per his own request; there was no public funeral, only a private service in Nanterre.
Carsen told WWD: “I wanted something full of life and unexpected. He once famously said, ‘A funeral? I’d rather die.'”
The memorial will display video footage of Lagerfeld and his collaborators on three screens while interpretative dance, music and theatre performances based on work admired by the former creative director will take place on stage.
Bruno Pavlovsky, Chanel’s President of Fashion, said: “It will be a very powerful moment, a collective celebration of his persona. The memorial will be about Karl only: who he was, what he loved, what gave him his exceptional energy.
“I am glad we could join forces with Fendi and Karl Lagerfeld to create together an exceptional event that measures up to him, a tribute that truly celebrates the things he loved and that inspired him.
“The greatest tribute we can pay today is to continue to follow the path he traced by – to quote Karl – ‘continuing to embrace the present and invent the future.’
Although Karl has had no official funeral service, both Chanel and Fendi paid tribute to the fashion icon during the final shows of his last autumn/winter 2019 collections.

Nicole Kidman ‘can’t live without’ hair oil

OHMYGOSSIP — Nicole Kidman “can’t live without” her Philip B Rejuvenating Oil.
The 51-year-old actress is known for her luscious blonde locks when she is on and off camera, and her long-time hair guru, Philip B – whose devoted fans include the ‘Big Little Lies’ star, Sir Mick Jagger and Matthew McConaughey – has opened up about what products they both use to keep her hair in the best condition possible.
He told W magazine: “The defining moment of my career was when I developed these unique hair care treatments that really delivered – using pure botanicals in precise blends to restore hair’s healthy, youthful feel.
“Nicole Kidman credits my Rejuvenating Oil as a hair product she ‘can’t live without’ for red carpet events and my hot oil treatment is how she likes to ‘chill out’ after long days on ‘Big Little Lies’. I’ve had Robert Redford come right up to me at an event and thank me for my products; I’ve had Gwyneth Paltrow write to me about my products.”
The Hollywood hair expert also recalled when he worked as a hair stylist in Los Angeles and found that a lot of his A-List clients suffered from “damaged” locks because of the constant “heat styling” on sets.
He said: “I was working in a popular Los Angeles salon with a big Hollywood following. I found that a lot of our A-list actresses had very damaged hair from constant heat styling, chemical treatments, and colour changes for their roles.
“It sent me on a mission to find truly effective ways to restore moisture to their hair and rebuild it. I had this intuitive sense that nothing could heal the scalp and help grow healthy hair like the nourishment of botanicals.”
And Kidman fans can achieve effortless Hollywood hair by giving their scalp its own gym workout and “brushing” it before applying shampoo.
He added: “Brushing your hair and scalp before each shampoo can work wonders for the condition of your hair. The trick is using the right kind of hairbrush: It needs to be made with natural boar’s-hair bristles.
“Why? Because unlike conventional nylon bristles, boar’s hair is porous, which makes it able to pick up the natural oils from your scalp and pull them down through the mid-lengths and ends of your hair, where they’re needed.”

Romee Strijd plans her vacation looks with her iPhone

OHMYGOSSIP — Victoria’s Secret Angel Romee Strijd plans her “vacation outfits” by keeping photos of her different looks in a folder on her iPhone.
The 23-year-old Dutch supermodel has revealed that she takes a whole day to try on different garments and mix and match different items all whilst taking photos of her looks on her smartphone which she saves.
Romee can then reference the snaps when packing and when she has landed at her holiday destination so she can slip into her clothes with no fuss.
Speaking to Vogue Australia, she said: “I love making outfits beforehand, so I take a day to try everything on, take a quick pic on my iPhone (and) put them all in a folder called vacation outfits. Saves you time.”
As well as flying for her vacations, Romee spends a lot of time on planes for her modelling career and she has learned just how important it is to keep her skin “hydrated” when she is flying because it’s the most “important step” to maintaining her flawless complexion.
She said: [I survive a long-haul flight by applying] a super-rich cream, or even … a hydrating mask [and] drinking a lot of water, hydration is the most important.
“[I use] SPF from EltaMd, lip balm from Sisley, Cactus [and Ginseng] Hydrating Mist from Kiehls and The Rich Cream [from] Augustinus Bader.”
Romee has to stay in the best possible shape for her work with lingerie giants Victoria’s Secret and always packs resistance bands and a jump rope in her suitcase so she can continue exercising on her vacations.
She said: “Do [exercise] outside, bring bands, and jump rope. Do 30 minutes a day before breakfast so you can enjoy your day after.”

Paris Hilton invests in ‘Uber for beauty’ Glam App

OHMYGOSSIP — Paris Hilton has invested in The Glam App as she believes it is going to be the “Uber for beauty”.
The 38-year-old socialite – who already has her own multiple businesses including her, perfume, skincare and make-up lines – has announced that she is the newest investor of the beauty platform, which is an application that allows users to book their grooming appointments at the push of a button and “deliver” them straight to your door.
And Paris revealed that the partnership was a natural choice for her because she has been using the app, which is available in 23 cities worldwide, for “four years” and loves how “convenient” it is when it comes to booking her own beauty appointments.
Speaking to Forbes, she said: “I’ve been a client and using The Glam App for four years now. I think it’s the future of beauty services because just at the touch of a button, you can have an incredible hair, makeup, or nail stylist come to your front door and get you ready. It makes things so convenient and it’s literally like the Uber for beauty and right now, I’m obviously running a huge business, but a big priority of mine for the past year has been investing in companies that I believe in.”
The Glam App was founded by A-list make-up guru and hair stylist Joey Maalouf alongside CEO Katrina Barton in 2015, and the brand is set to introduce a new option that allows its users to book longer appointment times with celebrity stylists at a higher price.
Maalouf also insisted that he has created two signature looks for the app including the Hollywood, that will make user’s red carpet ready, alongside the Paris, that is based on the DJ-turned-beauty investor and will reveal her signature ritual.
He added: “We work with stylists ranging from one year experience all the way up to those who have mastered their craft. Skill sets, professionalism, and creativity are just some of the characteristics we are looking for when accepting well-rounded stylists.
“Even though we accept stylists at different levels, what’s consistent across the board is that they’re all driven towards similar goals of perfecting their craft, building a stable clientele, and being respected by their peers while upholding pillars of professionalism and talent within the beauty industry.
“This is why we are launching a top level tier called VVIP with Paris … with greater appointment times and the highest level of stylists who have been hand-selected by me. The Glam App is the future of beauty.”
And users will be able to rate their appointments and give them a five-star rating like the popular transport app, Uber.
He added: “Our team truly prides themselves on the exceptional level of customer service we offer, proven by our 98 per cent five-star rating.”

And the ‘Modern Family’ star has revealed that she created the high-waisted panel technology to “hold everything” in a “super comfortable” way so women can look fabulous in any outfit.
Speaking to PEOPLE about her new project, she said: “It’s super comfortable. You don’t feel like you’re in a girdle or anything like that … It holds everything in without making you feel like you want to throw up!”
The shapewear – which was created over nine months after 30 different fit tests – is available in a beige thong for sizes XS to XL, and a brief, for those who want wider coverage, in 1X to 4X.
Vergara co-founded EBY with her long-time friend Renata Black, and she claims that their new line has “revolutionised shapewear”.
Renata added: “One day [Sofia] saw the girls in the underwear, and was like, ‘I wonder if they would just want a little bit more support,’ I was like, ‘That’s brilliant.’ And so, what we did is we applied the technology around the inside. It’s really revolutionising shapewear.”
The ‘Hot Pursuit’ star knew she wanted her range to be size-inclusive and fit every person’s “need” and she hopes it will “empower women all over the world”.
Sofia added: “Women want to be included. There were bigger sizes, there were smaller sizes that couldn’t find the right underwear. So it’s important to know what women need.
“When I found [Renata] and the company, it was perfect because it was not just for me to make money, but it was also to be part of a beautiful cause. We’re trying to empower women all over the world. [The women we’ve helped] each have a very interesting and very heartbreaking story, and it’s great that we’ve been able to give them a little push in their time of need.”
