Not only is Paris the ‘City of Lights’ but to those of us who have spent time there, it is a city of fashion & architecture. And the people at Dior know that.
Hence, this lovely editorial of fabulous, lushly dressed models, Anastasia Ivanova, Daria Strokous, Iselin Steiro, Marie Piovesan and shot by the ever talented, Willy Vanderperre. It’s been out since May 29th, so in case you missed it’s release, here is your weekend dose of fashion elite!
For those readers hooked on the song in this video, the track is ‘Synrise’ by the Belgian band GOOSE. You can download it off iTunes and Amazon. Support good fashion, good music and good taste by doing just that.
Of here at HeathyrWolfe.com we love everything Angie. Whether it’s a press mess or another awesome story of St. Angie saving the world we approve. This time, the story is about Angie saving herself.
Unless you have been living under a rock you know Angelina Jolie just had a double mastectomy. It’s a scary must for those of us that have faced the possibility of cancer coming into our lives.
Well, St. Angie is not invincible and caught wind of just such a problem occurring in her life. With SIX beautiful children Angie had to face a scary decision not only as a person, but as a parent.
On May 14, Jolie announced that she had been diagnosed with a mutated BRCA1 gene predisposing her to cancer. She revealed she had undergone a preventive mastectomy on Feb. 16 and reconstructive surgery on April 27 in an op-ed in the New York Times.
She faced it, went through with the surgery, and came out on top. Angie not only conquered it but returned to the red carpet looking like a stunner (We knew she would).
Today in London at the ‘World War Z’ premiere with hot hubbie Brad Pitt, Angelina her first public appearance since the surgery. Saint Angie showed up looking like the Goddess we know and love. Wearing a long St. Laurent, black gown, she stunned, smiled and worked the red carpet for all it was worth. No really, I have never seen so much over posing in my life.
Regardless we are glad she is safe, sound and conquered what could have been cancer. Here’s a picture of Angie and Brad posing like silly people. Thanks to Getty for the ridiculous photo’s of the holy one’s.
I love that music and fashion are so simpatico. The industry after a couple hundred years, has finally wised up to the mad musicians out there and is milking it like they should.
Consider this as one of those awesome music and fashion moments.
Freshly blasted from my fabulous in box is an exciting live stream event from Brooklyn, N-Y-C and Karmaloop.

Vogue had a live stream, twitter was a-tweeting and I was live tweeting my likes and dislikes of yesterdays red carpet. What? You weren’t tweeting with me? Well then go add me at @HeathyrWolfe before you start feeling guilty.
Icons of Fashion, TV and the Big Screen showed up in droves. Some fashionable, some fashionably late. Most were punk to gills as they should have been. Vivienne Westwood made a show and an amazing political plight for Bradley Manning, the soldier at the centre of the Wikileaks drama,
Madonna in Givenchy and Casadei shoes, showed some fierce punk attitude Surprisingly, Miley Cyrus was head to toe H-O-T, in a fishnet dress by Marc Jacobs,
The piece-de-resistance was Sarah Jessica Parker. She put a smile on everyone’s face with a mohawk head piece that was vintage Phillip Treacy, a Sarah Jessica Parker In Giles Deacon Dress dress and kick your ass plaid thigh-high boots.
Others were just there to share the spotlight namely our favorite resident paparazzi junkies Kimye who failed in this floral fashion flop,

I know you may be a little too far to get NYC so below I give you Daria Werbowy in a Punk Story. Daria Werbowy – Punk Stories by Vogue.com
Let’s face it. Season 5 was a total bust. I am a long time fan of True Blood but they totally failed me in Season 5. There was not enough sex, there was not enough blood and the plot was so thin, a 1-year-old with a butter knife could have cut through it.
I guess there were a few highlights. All involving Eric half nekkid. Other than that, we learned fairies are lame, like sex and all vampires are narcissists. This could be season 2.
And then there was the Season 6 trailer…..and it made me say….
Sweet Jesus.
With a limited run of only a few episodes we have everyone naked, more blood than a 80s gore movie, tons of battling, shoot ’em up, blood lust AND…..lots of Eric’s awesome chest. Way to go Mr. Skarsgard, you’ve been hitting the gym. (Team Sweden FTW!!)
Words cannot explain the joy I got (especially below the waist) when watching this. Sex, Blood and gospel music. It’s a WIN!
Vanessa Hudgens, ex-Disney kid, Ex of Zac Efron and Ex-High School Music twenty something girl. She’s go loads of ca$$$h, and a career that has been a really good PR stunt. She’s boho, cute and a Coachella kind of gal.
So where in the holy hell did this come from. Here we have a 90’s throwback video with a day-glo twist that hurts my ears, eyes and makes my skin crawl. I’m not sure if this is three minutes of a cheer, or a song. I think secretly Disney had something to do with this mess. And it is VERY not cute.
It seems that YLA are actually the ones who are in charge of co-cheering this song into existence and producing it. Although I give them props for using the B list tween for her fame to move up, this was pretty much a bad move. YLA needs to take their name off this hot 90s mess. This was not meant to be seen by the public girls. And our tween superstar Vanessa? Vanessa Hudgens needs to stick to tween moves with hot leading men.
Every Disney kid has to try to put out a hit single. Sorry Vanessa H. fans, this is definitely a miss.
All the world is your stage, until you get busted. Then you are just another Disney kid.
Justin Bieber stepped into the shoes of many a Disney kid by getting busted for drugs, Wednesday night, in Stockholm. The Swedish authorities noses were super sensitive and caught a ‘whiff’ of something funny smelling as Bieber boarded his tour bus last night. No, it was not Nag Champa.
“A colleague sensed what was considered to be a strong smell of marijuana,” Stockholm police spokesman Lars Byström told the Aftonbladet newspaper.
Sensed? What is this? A new B movie in the making? A cop with a ‘weed’ sense that busts pot smokers is coming for YOU.
Being Swedish I have to give my people props for busting the Bieber and bringing this to light. Being compassionate I feel for the Bieber. I live in California where weed is like, well, a weed. There are at least 6 medical marijuana clinics with in walking radius of my apartment in West Hollywood. SIX. Yeah we are totally mellow out here in California FOR A REASON.
Don’t worry. Their love for Bieber conquered all Beliebers,
“We don’t have any concrete suspicions against any specific person; there were several people on the bus,” Byström told Aftonbladet.
Technically speaking it could have been his BFF Lil Twist, or a roadie. Let’s hope he gets off with a small fine. Bieber has had enough controversy on this European tour.
I f you haven’t given to charity this year, here’s your chance to become a key player in philanthropy in Los Angeles.
The awesome folks over at Michelle PR sent me this. Being a huge fan of charitable causes I wanted to share this, suggest it and push strongly that you go and partake.
The drive is for ‘Meals on Wheels’, which, I have actually donated to thankyouverymuch.
Meals on Wheels was created to distribute a nice, healthy, hot meal to Senior Citizens who are home-bound and can’t prepare food or go to the market themselves in Los Angeles county. We’re talking about the your grandparents here so PAY ATTENTION.
The event will take place on April 21st. There are two ways you can help
1) Be a rider. The great part is riders get free schwag bags that include;
a Junk Food tee,
Which we adore being fashion addicts on this site,
a Cart for a Cause Cook Book, a St. Vincent Meals on Wheels angel pin and more for taking time to raise awareness for this important cause. Are you hooked? I am!
2) Be an attendee. With celebrity chef, Michael Fiorelli hosting this, you know you want to go. Tickets are $50 and that is a small amount to give for a charity. Because charity is AWESOME (and tax deductible)
In the past charitable events have raised enough money to distribute 25,000 meals a year for ‘Meals on Wheels’ so yes, you will be making a difference. If you can’t be a rider there is hope for you. You can attend this event by buying tickets on eventbrite HERE;

It’s Spring in Los Angeles and that means it’s time to get everyone’s freak on. Clothes come off, pool’s are in use, blond bunnies are sunbathing everywhere and Halle Berry is knocked up.
First off I want to wish Olivier Martinez and Halle Berry a HUGE congratulations! It couldn’t happen to a happier couple. They really do love each other and as we learned earlier this year, Martinez will fight for his love. Halle is a very lucky woman. Next I want to send congrats to Nahla. She’s about to be a big sister to a very lucky kid and will have someone cool to play with. We wish her luck on her big sis duties.
This is definitely one union that everyone can be happy about. Except Gabriel Aubry. He’s probably weeping in a corner with a bottle of something about now.
Saint Laurent recently revamped from the iconic Yves Saint Laurent to….Saint Laurent thanks to creative director Heidi Slimane. (Read more HERE)
With a fashion house this iconic it was a daring decision and perhaps could have been a pitfall. However with a super power in the industry like (Yves) Saint Laurent they refuse to let simple things, such as a change in name, ruin a platinum reputation.
Enter Heidi Slimane. Iconic fashion & music photographer and mad genius. Add Courtney Love, Marilyn Manson, Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth and Ariel Pink of Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti. All as mad, strange and beautiful as the new house of Saint Laurent, and Heidi Slimane.
Create a campaign using all of the above rock icon’s from the ’90’s, and you have perfection with side of hardcore only Slimane is keyed into. And one beautiful campaign.
See the new faces of Saint Laurent below as captured by Heidi Slimane.
OMGOMGOMG…Kick-Ass 2 is coming out and my inner geek girl can barely handle it.
First off I have to admit to my personal love affair with Chloe Moretz.
She is the business, and I can only hope every 16-year-old out there is taking notes on how to be awesome from her. She conquered the movie Kick-Ass, by being super cool at only 12 years old, but also managed to steal the movie from Nick Cage and Aaron Johnson (Kick-Ass). Then she moved on to 30Rock where she whooped Jack Donehy’s ass several rounds, corporate style.
Now, at 16, she is the center of Kick-Ass 2 and is OWNING IT. Add an all-star cast including Jim Carrey, Lyndsy Fonseca (pickle fork girl from Hot Tub Time Machine/ TV’s Nikita), John Leguizamo and one of my other personal favorites, Donald Faison.
Check out the uber sweet trailer below. (And Aaron Johnson’s manly chest at around the :59 mark. Kick-Ass apparently has been working out)
Are you dying to see it? Yeah well us suckers for a good thing can’t watch it until it premieres on August 16, of this year. Until then we await the return of our favorite superheroes patiently. Now go work on your costume and I’ll see you there masked avengers.
I love it when classy actors and artists get trashy for magazine covers. It show’s they have a sense of humor. That and she looks smoking hot!
It seems little Hermione aka Emma Watson, is all grown up and kicking ass doing movies that are very NOT Harry Potter related. Seems he also like’s the independent film (like Mr. Radcliffe). Who wouldn’t after starring in kids movies for most of your teen, tween and adolescence years. Sounds like they are the UK’s version of a Disney kid’s.
Ms. Watson has indeed grown up and is not only smoking hot on the cover of GQ but is taking on a role’s that will blow your mind. Ok, maybe not but this time she is playing a Hollywood rich-bitch bad girl in the ‘Bling Ring’. Her character is a far cry from Emma and Hermione. And according to Emma, detestable.
“When I read the script and I realized that essentially it was a meditation on fame and what it’s become to our society, I had to do it,” Watson told the magazine. “The character is everything that I felt strongly against – she’s superficial, materialistic, vain, amoral. She’s all of these things and I realized that I hated her.”
“How do you play someone you hate?” Watson asked. “But I found it really interesting and it gave me a whole new insight into what my job, or my role as an actress, could be.”
The movie is kind of, sort of, based on real life happenings. A bunch of rich teens decided to go rip off and steal from their neighbors in a series of real life heist’s In the Hollywood Hills. People like Paris Hilton, Orlando Bloom and our beloved drug addict Lilo got hit. Oh and it got covered in Vanity Fair. Apparently, yes they got caught. This movie would be meh BUT, thankfully, Sofia Coppola is directing it. That means it should be a fun, sweet, touching and messed up all in one happy little bundle.
Enjoy the trailer below while you drool over Emma above.
Since I am a firm believer in NOT celebrating April Fool’s Day I thought it only fitting I give you something that is true.
True Blood that is.
Yes, True Blood Season 6 promo trailer has been released, and it looks like the writer’s went back to their roots. No sparkling, lot’s of blood, sex and lots of weird. Vampires, fairies and brujas oh my!. Add a few burning buildings and a really pissed off Billith, it seems we are back in business.
But wait. No we aren’t. Here’s the kicker. Season 6 of True Blood doesn’t start until frigging June 13th. And the season will be extra short with a rumored 10 episodes. WTH?
Until then will be forced to watch network TV (except Game of Thrones).
No Billith for you.
Waiting is half the fun tho right? No it isn’t. While you are sitting suffering my dear fangbangers, here’s a promo for you. Enjoy it, because until June we are fangtastically….screwed.
Happy Easter to all my friends, family and foes out there celebrating this holiday. To all my relatives, Happy belated Pesach (Passover for you Goyum). I hope everyone is out there over dosing on eggs, chocolate and really good food with friends.
For your consideration here is a hilarious Easter movie (if you aren’t taking this holiday too seriously), The Life of Brian. http://www.1channel.ch/watch-1027-Life-of-Brian
Hey its Easter oriented (sort of).
