Girl Crush: Rachel Bilson

Hillary / Celebs, Fashion / best style ever, girl crush, rachel bilson / 2 Comments

It kind of blows my mind that we haven’t already done a girl crush post about this adorable, fashionable, babe of babes because PA Melissa and I looooove her. Rachel Bilson’s hair, clothes, and makeup nearly always look perfectly put together, stylish, but not overdone. She looks awesome in 99.97% of the pictures I’ve seen of her. Just look at the way this lady can rock a simple black, white, and red color palette (perfect for fall, duh). Perfection:

Ok, so she hasn’t done soooo much since The OC (has anyone who was on that show??), but she does have a hilarious/awesome-looking show coming to the CW next month called Hart of Dixie in which she plays a surgeon (!) who has to move from NYC to Alabama for a fellowship or something (the horror). I will be certain to post about it in the future.

Photo credits: Harper’s Bazaar and InStyle. I could have added ten trillion pictures of her looking amazing, but a cursory google image search will assure you that she looks amazing. All the time. See?

Yes, LOVE her! She is so adorable and always looks fashionable and cute without looking overdone or like she’s trying too hard. Also she has knobby knees like me…makes me feel less alone.

She’s adorable and I am loving her long hair with the ombre (sp?). I do, however, wonder how she maintains her super fancy celebrity fashion-loving life style without working…ever?

Snash Rings: For Connoisseurs of Life

One night in December, I may have stumbled into BK Night Bazaar after an evening of cocktails and drunk-purchased one of Snash‘s rings (the Ice Cream one, to be exact). Well, like most drunk purchases in my life, it ended up being one of my favorite items. In vino…shopping veritas? For me, yes. I wear(…)
Essential Mixtape Alert: DJ Young EZ – Guaranteed Raw Vol. 1

Okayplayer’s Mixtape Mondays feature has opened me up to a whole new world of mixtapes. I am Jasmine, they are Aladdin and this particular mixtape is RUH RUH LIKE A DUNGEON DRAGON. DJ Young EZ describes Guaranteed Raw Vol. 1 as such: “An hour of classic 90s hip-hop shit cause Dipset is what’s ‘old school’(…)
Avarcas For All, Courtesy Aldo?

On a recent outing searching for dresses at Urban Outfitters (a truly useless search), I stumbled on a pair of Pons Avarcas and thought I had hit the jackpot. For the uninitiated, these sandals are a balearic island staple. I can still picture my aunt’s sandal-clad feet in my earliest childhood memories, sporting the Avarcas(…)
Life Improver: The NYC Bus Checker App (Yes, It Works!)

Understatement of the century: buses in Brooklyn can be unreliable. I had given up on waiting for the bus at ALL unless I actually saw it coming with my own eyes…until the advent of the Bus Checker app! With this app, you can zoom in on any bus stop, click on it and see a(…)

7115 by Szeki Stole My French Would do Heart

There are certain times when everything on the racks fits your body type, and you could go from H&M to Opening Ceremony and find a suit that fit. This season, however, I’ve been fresh outta luck – and I’m assuming anyone with more than a C-cup is feeling the same way. Step into Forever 21,(…)
Sing, My Angel Olsen of Music

I can’t think of any way to describe Angel Olsen that isn’t off the charts hyperbolic, so I’ll just come out and say that she’s THE BEST EVER. Her records (especially her latest – Burn Your Fire for No Witness) and her videos have been on constant repeat for me…but to really get the full(…)
