The freshest Bond girl in years! Gemma Arterton will be hitting the silver screen in Quantum of Solace this October.
Gemma might be beautiful, talented and one of Britain’s brightest acting hopes, but according to the Guardian she doesn’t have what it takes to be a diva: She’s just too normal. ‘I still have student debts to pay off,’ says the 22-year-old, who recently beat 1,500 nubile hopefuls to become the newest Bond Girl. ‘I think I’ve used most of my earnings buying bits and bobs from Primark.’
The stunning actress is fronting the newest fragrance from Avon - Bond Girl 007 - a partnership with James Bond entertainment; said to be the biggest global fragrance launch of the year.
Once she’s done with a bit of spying, Gemma has bagged the lead role in BBC’s blockbuster production of Tess Of The D’Urbervilles. First she makes out with Daniel Craig, and then an iconic maiden. That’s an “it” girl.
Crazy, Cute, Cool ! That’s what I say about these trendy little Gwen Stephani perfume bottles modeled after her four Harajuku dancers and herself.
Remember these sweet Harajuku tees we shared? Now Gwen will hook us up with sweet smells that are sure to rock. They make you happy just looking at them. Perfect as a gift or to brighten your own counter top!

The beauty editor at Lucky calls this perfume “utterly unlike anything else, yet not strange.” Okay I’m intrigued by Red Flower in Champa. Red Flower’s fragrances come in full bottle or a mini-roll on version.
Red Flower scents come in Champa, Beautiful and Unique. But it’s the former on that intrigues me which is citrusy with subtle flowers. Crisp and pretty. The organic perfume scents are all pure flower, leaf and bark distillations. They are certified organic, hand and wild crafted.
One other perfume that has my curiousity is Oscar de la Renta’s Fresh Vanilla. It’s bergamot, orange and marshmallow. Might be too sweet for my liking - but if you’re a fan of Vera Wang Princess than this one is worth trying.
She’s collaborating with retail chain Anchor Blue on a line of junior apparel and accessories set to debut by April 15. Striped dresses, color-rich tanks, tees, black shorts, white-denim tops, bags, and jewelry are all in the works, priced from $10 to $60.
[It Lists Says: After her awful music video (ala home cam’ from Spencer Shmuck), I’m not sure if I’d trust her fashion sense!]

What are your top trends for 2008?
(1) The play of hard against soft. For example, a pretty, silky dress in a beautiful color with a menswear inspired reefer coat in tweed or plaid. Lighter fabrics are prevalent in part because of global warming but also because women travel so much today.
(2) A peep toe shoe or bootie with a high vamp–classic 1940s influence.
Again, a 40s trend. Grown up clothes for a more mature look. Baby boomers want to be fashionable but also realistic.

When we first received a bottle of Diesel’s Fuel For Life fragrance, we were hesitant. The combination of notes straight out of the bottle smell familiar, almost like deja vu. It was only after wearing this fragrance for a week we began to change our minds.
