Freshwater Blue... The new Laguna Beach?

I admit I love my reality TV... The Rachel Zoe Project, Project Runway, Australia's Next Top Model, The Hills, The City, 8th and Ocean and the list continues!  So when I heard that Australia was making their very own version of Laguna Beach/Newport Harbour, addiction was clearly inevitable!  For those who don't know, Laguna Beach is where it all began.. for Lauren Conrad, that is.  An MTV reality TV show based around the lives of those living at Laguna Beach.  We were introduced to memorable characters, like LC, Stephen, Kristen, Jason, Kendra and Cameron.  But after three seasons the show moved up the shore to Newport Harbour.  This only lasted a season as followers were drawn to The Hills and The City.  And so now, it's all about MTV's Freshwater Blue.  Freshwater is located in the Northern Beaches of Sydney and the show is based around the concept of Laguna Beach, except unlike Laguna Beach, this crew have just finished high school. The show aired a few days ago and I'm already intrigued.  As for the cast?  I'm all about team Nicola, she's the Lauren Conrad of the show and the show is somewhat based around her.  Nicola's best friend is Luke and he is a total sweetheart.  Nicola's other friends include, Nikki 'The life and soul of the party', Joey 'The one with her heart on her sleeve' and Lize.. Lize is dating Rob and they are the couple of the show, but apparently they are always getting together and breaking up.  And then there's Monique, the self proclaimed virgin waiting for Mr Right.  She's friends with Annika... Nicola's nightmare.. she's all about DRAMA!  Lastly, there's Jesse, he is the wild party animal.  So if you aren't already addicted, tune in next week as the crew head up to the Gold Coast for Schoolies, where you know drama is inevitable!

MTV Movie Awards 2010

It's that time of the year again, the MTV Movie Awards.  I'm a huge MTV fan, so I love watching these awards.  I love the fact that they are so informal, crazy and that you should expect the unexpected!  Sandra kissing Scarlett, Katy and her blue hair, Tom's new ulter ego and a sneak peek at the new Jersey Shore...... And who took home the most awards of the night?  Twilight of course, but we all knew that!

But the most important part... The fashion!  Here are a few of my favourites and well the ones I couldn't help but just post!
Whitney Port

Fashionista Whitney in Yiagal Azrouel... I love this dress. I think it looks amazing on her. So different, but so fashion forward. I don't think Whitney can ever get it wrong!

Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron

They are honestly the cutest couple! Vanessa looked adorable in her feminine Jenny Packman dress and Deigo Dolcini pumps. And well Zac Efron is one of my favourities and on the fashion front he definitely has not disappointed!

The Crew from Jersey Shore

And they did not disappoint!  Nicole 'Snooki', Jenny 'JWOWW', Angelina, Sammi, Mike 'The Situation', Pauly D, Ronnie and Vinny came out in true Guido and Guidette style and pretty much took over the red carpet!  Mike flaunting 'the Situation', JWOWW 'gracing' the red carpet in a pink dress by her new line Filthy Couture, whilst Snooki opted to cut her Dolce and Gabbana dress.. Oh my!  I can't help but laugh and love them, they have truly created their own culture!  And I have to ask, how does Pauly D get his hair like that?

The Girls from The Hills

What would the MTV awards be without the girls from the Hills!...Audrina Patridge sparkled on the red carpet, Lo Bosworth opted for a more glamorous image, whilst  Stephanie Pratt added a dash of vibrant colour.  I actually like all three outfits!

Lindsay Lohan 

Every time I see this outfit, I change my opinion of it.  Lindsay opted for a sparkly jumpsuit by Pamela Roland, which definitely left a lasting impression.. good or bad! 

Eva Mendes

Eva Mendes in Stella McCartney.. I love this complete look, the dress, shoes and accessories.  One of my favourite looks and I wonder if Rachel Zoe had anything to do with it?!

Kristen Stewart

I always know to expect something different when it comes to Kristen Stewart.  This year she's dressed in Dolce and Gabbana and whilst I don't really have an opinion on the dress, it does suit her and her image.  Love the shoes though!

Lucy Hale

I love this number she is wearing. It's like a classic little black dress, with unexpected, yet fashionable twist. I love it!

Christina Aguilera

As one of the performers of the night, Christina left a lasting impression.. If not for her performance, then definitely when it came to her Versace Atelier dress.  I have no idea how to explain it!..Fringe, chains, short, long..  I mean she looked amazing as she always does, but I still have conflicting views regarding the dress.  

Victoria Justice

This is one of my favourites.  I love that it's so fashion forward and also love how she has contrasted the hot pink dress with the nude pumps and clutch.  She looks amazing.

Jessica Biel

This had to be my favourite number, so classic, fashionable, stylish, feminine, and elegant.  Jessica's complete outfit was straight from the Giambattistu Valli collection.  I think she looks gorgeous, from the fashion forward fringe skirt, to the elegant top, the amazing heels and the pretty little pink bow belt!

Fashion Frenemies!

I can never get enough of MTV's The City! Now it's returning and I can't wait.  The City is my biggest fashion inspiration at the moment.  I love the new promotional shoot for the upcoming season!

Shoes....shoes...shoes!  These days, I say the higher the better which is evident in my current shoe collection!

I want Roxy's belt... love anything metallic!

These heels make her legs look longer than what they already are.. amazing!

Loving this outfit, classic but edgy!

I need her wardrobe!  A classic skirt, cardigan and pumps never looked so good!

Magical Makeovers

It’s been a while, I feel like I’ve neglected my fellow Fashionistas! After a long week of study, it’s back to the wonderful world of fashion and just in time for the countdown to Rosemount Fashion Week! Just less than two weeks away, can you feel the fashion in the air? I know, l love fashion!

As I have a keen interest in styling, editorial and fashion journalism it’s important that I’m constantly fashion forward, trend forecasting, drawing from unique inspiration and pretty much standing out from the crowd. However, we’re told that the best way to trend forecast is look around you and take it to the streets. Except sometimes, I think I’d rather stick to the runways… Yes, I’m talking about, well, those fashion don’ts! I think most people have the potential and since I love styling, visualising a makeover to create a classic glamour, is part of the norm. I love watching shows like Trinny and Sussanah and Style Her Famous! Makeovers can change people’s lives. I’m a believer that a dash of designer, a sprinkle of etiquette, a little blush, a touch of class and a pinch of pretty and well just embracing natural beauty.. Can transform anyone and create a magical makeover!

When I think of makeovers, I think of the girls from MTV’s Jersey Shore. For those of you that don’t know, Jersey Shore is America’s latest TV show phenomenon. It’s been described as the “Real World on steroids”. The show follows the lives of the Italian Americans who describe themselves as Guidos and Guidettes, put together to live in a house in the Jersey Shore. Think, fake tans, sleeked hair, rooftop hot tubs, trashy nightclubs, fist pumping, drama and oh so mini clothing. A major call for a dramatic makeover. Yes, I’m talking about Jersey Shores very own Snooki, JWoww and Sammi. Harper’s Bazaar, along with socialite Tinsley Mortimer, staged an intervention and sent the girls to charm school. As well as being schooled in etiquette they were given complete makeovers. It seemed as though they had a major “situation” on their hands.

I think they did an amazing job and made these girls look a million dollars! Except you can take the girl out of the Jersey Shore, but you can’t take the Jersey Shore out of the girl. That’s right after their complete fashion makeovers and a crash course in etiquette, they went right back to where they started!

The City v The Hills

The rumours are true, the Hills is finally in it's last season.  Except we all knew once Lauren left that Kristin had no chance!  (Good always prevails over evil!) Except I will miss the crazy drama, but then again that's why we have the City.  The City has the drama, better eye candy and the fashion!  From Whitney to Olivia, the fashion inspiration is never ending!  I'm loving this City photo shoot and thought I would also post the new promotional shoot for the Hills.
The City

I want the dress and I want the shoes!  I can never get enough of metallics especially when it comes to shoes!

There's something about Olivia. It's totally a love/hate situation.  Since everyone is such a Whitney lover, we can't help but hate Olivia.  Yet, I want her job and I want her clothes.  I've never been a fan of red shoes, but the way Olivia has pulled them off, they are so tempting!  I'm also loving the little black number.  So simple and classic with emphasis on her statement piece jewellery.  However, I'm drawn to the way she has transformed something leather and predominately edgy, and made it so elegant!  I have a feeling there will be a lot more Olivia posts to come! Well done Olivia!

The Hills Promo Shots Season 6

I'm surprised to see Brody in this shot and not the 'lovely gentleman' well all know and love, Justin Bobby. (maybe a hint for the new season ahead?)  But, besides that, straight away I'm drawn to Audrina's shoes!  Another item to my want/need list!

Heidi, Hollywood's official fashion don't and well actually, a don't in general.  My blogs first official fashion don't!  It is not fashionable to be fake.. Fake hair, fake tan, fake well body, fake personality and well way too much make up - Poor Heidi! 

I love Lo's hair in this shot, it's so cute!
