5 of the Wrinkliest Celebrities

The Sad Truth

Most celebrities of the 21st century have a difficult time looking their age. Due to our current generations merciless beauty standards, a talented actor can instantly be turned down because of their unsatisfactory physical appearance. The following is a short list of several actors whose theatrical abilities outshine their heavy wrinkles, though many of them still undergo plastic surgery.

Jack Nicholson

Jack Nicholson is not only a successful actor, producer, writer, and director, but also an enthralling and hilarious celebrity figure. His real life issues and personality are just as exciting as the characters he's played in great films. Famous for movies such as As Good as It Gets, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Batman, The Shining, and many more, it's honest and easy to say that he's one of the best known actors of our time. Not to mention, he's superbly wrinkly.

Betty White

Betty White is an adorably naughty lady. At 90-years-old, her fan base has grown outrageously; older fans admire her for her roles in classics such as The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Golden Girls, while younger fans love her for her appearances in Saturday Night Live and Community. Her great acting accomplishments completely outshine her old age and wrinkles.

Jerry Stiller

Jerry Stiller is one of Hollywood's most beloved funny men. Famous for his remarkably popular and hilarious sitcoms, such as Seinfeld and The King of Queens, he is considered a celebrity legend among many. He's also the father of famous comedian actor Ben Stiller. Jerry is incredibly wrinkly, and at 85-years-old, not afraid to show his age.

Sean Connery

Sean Connery is a Scottish man of many talents, including acting and producing. At 81-years-old, he is very wrinkly, but because of his mysterious and often times funny personality, his old appearance does wonders for his popularity. In fact, this wise man received the title Sexiest Man Alive from People magazine in 1989. Known for films such as Highlander, The Hunt for Red October, The League of Extraordinary Gentleman, and the hilarious jabs Saturday Night Live gave him, he is an untouchable wrinkly and gifted actor.

Meryl Streep

Meryl Streep may be wrinkly, but everyone has to agree, she looks as beautiful and amazing as ever. Classified as one of the classiest and most lady-like women of Hollywood, Meryl is noted for many films, including Death Becomes Her, The Hours, The Manchurian Candidate, The Devil Wears Prada, Doubt, Julie and Julia, and the recent 2011 popular drama The Iron Lady, Meryl Streep is one of Hollywood's most talent actors and well-behaved celebrities.

Peter Wendt is a writer and author living in the Austin hill country. In his spare time he enjoys hiking and fishing. After noticing some deep wrinkles from sun damage, Peter decided to try Botox at The California Skin Institute.

Top Inspirational Quotes From Influential People

“A well-cultivated mind is, so to speak, made up of all the minds of preceding ages.” - Bernard de Bovier de Fontenelle

In times of sorrow, grief, or stress, it’s not uncommon – or unhealthy – to be found in dire need of quotes reminding us of what life has to offer. Words of inspiration from esteemed men of the past like Martin Luther King Jr. and strong women like Helen Keller offer opportunities to pick ourselves off the ground and back on our feet, giving us a much-needed jumpstart to persevere and march forward when the going gets rough.

Resources like Hark.com exist all across the Web to provide a variety of inspirational quotes, making those profound words that much simpler to seek out and take in. All the same, we’ve put together a short-list below of the most inspirational quotes that have come straight from the mouths of some of the most influential people ever to grace the world.

• “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.” – Mark Twain.

Our lives are very much defined by the choices we make, but what is better to be realized, is that choices perceived to be “bad” can never topple the disappointing decision to do nothing at all. Twain, a man of deep contemplation and reflection, hammers this point succinctly.

• “I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.” - Wayne Gretzky

Nothing is more detrimental to the human spirit than a tendency to dwell on the past. Moving forward means not looking back, and exploring new territories, new options, and new additions to your lifestyle. Gretzky, who is considered one of the greatest hockey players of all time, began his journey forward at the ripe age of six years old, honing his early-age hockey skills in his backyard to later become an esteemed athlete, Olympian, entrepreneur and humanitarian worldwide.

• “Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.” – Helen Keller

The power of the quote is especially striking coming from the perspective of Keller, who faced the seemingly insurmountable odds of blindness and deafness by becoming a cherished writer and lecturer on politics and the value of life. This perhaps best embodies the unique ability of an individual to make changes and navigate life’s rocky terrains, even in the face of adversity.

• “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.” – Martin Luther King Jr.

Dr. King spent a lifetime taking the higher ground on the issue of civil rights, serving as the antithesis of the Black Panther movement by protesting peacefully and inspiring millions through words rather than threats of violence. King hits home a crucial point that fire really shouldn’t be fought with fire, but water.

5 Worst Celebrity Makeup Disasters

Celebrities are constantly in the spotlight, and often times, their worst days completely outshine one of our best days. But celebrities are not always perfect.

You would think that with the large posse of stylists and makeup artists they have on hand, most celebrities would never step foot outside looking like a disaster. Thankfully, they do, and the following are five of the worst celebrity makeup disasters to ever be caught on camera.

1. Pamela Anderson
Usually known for her bright red lips and subtle makeup (who's looking at her face anyway?), Pamela Anderson usually keeps herself well groomed and beautiful. This time, however, she managed to overdo the eyeliner just a bit. Not only does the black eyeliner extend too far passed her eye (making her eyes look squinted), it also stands out because she paired it with soft and subtle makeup everywhere else. Maybe her bright red lips would have calmed down the abrasive eyeliner, or maybe it would have made the disaster worse. Either way, this makeup failed.

2. Kim Kardashian
Whether she's going for a natural look or wearing a thick layer of makeup, Kim usually pulls off a great look. Her facial features allow her to rock most styles, and she can easily transform from lazy day to night life at the drop of a hat. On this day, though, Kim made the wrong makeup choice. Not only does the bright blue eyeliner below her eye stand out like a sore thumb, but bright blue does not complement Kim's natural skin or eye color, which just makes the whole look even more awkward. Throw the bright blue eyeliner away, Kim. It's not doing you any favors.

3. Christina Aguilera
Christina has been on her fair share of worst lists, and through all of her fashion mishaps, this makeup disaster makes one more addition. Christina often wears a bright lipstick color, and usually, the bright pink she's adorning wouldn't be an issue. In fact, it's actually the best part about this look. The combination of blush mixed with a paler skin tone makes her cheeks and forehead look transparent. Combine that with the thick and dark eyeliner, and you have yourself a hot makeup mess. We hope you fired your stylist, Christina. This look just had way too much going on.

4. Mischa Barton
Drawing attention to your eyes is usually a good thing when it comes to makeup, but Misha does it all wrong. The thick dark eyeliner coupled with the dark eye shadow dulls her eyes. When you add this to the soft palette of her other makeup, it washes out her face, making her face appear lifeless. We're all for the smokey eye look, but it only works when it complements the rest of your face.

5. Eva Longoria
Note to self: apply makeup to entire face before stepping out in public. Having raccoon eyes from sunglasses is one thing, but what happened to Eva's face? This pale line under her eyes is extremely strange, and it seems as if she either forgot to put makeup there or didn't even try to cover it up. We praise you for stepping out in public like this, but we are still wondering why.

Rebekah Simmons is a writer and fashion designer.  She enjoys writing about fashion, clothing, and makeup.  Rebekah loves to go shopping and never leaves home without her cosmetic brush set.

All in the Family: Five Favourite Father-Son Duos

There are, of course, few bonds in the world tighter and more important that between father and son. It's no wonder, then, that such paternal relationships have often yielded careers of great achievement in all manner of fields. Whether it's in science, sports or the arts, father-son duos have conquered. So read on, and check out our selection of five favourite father-son combos.

William and Lawrence Bragg
You probably haven’t heard of the Braggs, but you really should have! While it might not sound particularly exciting, the Braggs’ contributions to our understanding of how X-rays work and their invention of the X-ray spectrometer have left an indelible mark on modern science. The pair was jointly awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1915 for their work.

Charlie & Martin Sheen
Our second entry on this list couldn't really be further from the first. While the Braggs dazzled us with science, Charlie and Martin Sheen have had rather different impacts on our lives. Martin Sheen is most famous for conveying huge gravity on screen, with his roles in films like Wall Street and Apocalypse Now standing as landmarks not just in his own career, but across the landscape of cinema in general. Charlie Sheen, on the other hand, has most recently become dear to the public for his myriad eccentricities and public extravagance, with these even coming to overshadow his solid comedic work in the likes of Hot Shots and Two and a Half Men.

Gilles and Jacques Villeneuve
Both Gilles and Jacques took the world of F1 by storm. Arguably the most successful motor racing family ever. Villeneuve Snr was a fantastic and exciting driver who picked up six victories in his career until it tragically came to an abrupt halt as he was killed in the 1982 Belgian Grand Prix. He was a national hero in his native Canada. His son Jacques was just as impressive during his time behind the whele in the 1990s. Making his debut in 1996, Jacques came second in the driver’s championship but then went on to win seven races and feuding with Michael Schumacher in the process!

Will and Jaden Smith
Another Hollywood father and son pairing here, but whereas Charlie and Martin Sheen are largely looking back on their impressive careers by now, Will and Jaden Smith are still very much looking forward to future endeavours. Will Smith in the 1990s built up an absolutely blockbusting portfolio of work, including smashes like Independence Day, Men in Black and Wild, Wild West, before moving onto more mature roles like Seven Pounds and The Pursuit of Happyness. His son is just now beginning to follow in his footsteps, starring with his father in that latter film and also carving a name for himself as the lead in 2010's Karate Kid remake. Jaden is definitely one to look out for in years to come.

George H.W. and George W. Bush
We’ll end this list with a controversial entry here. The first thing to note is that this isn’t an endorsement (or indictment) of either Bush’s politics, but rather just an expression of how fascinating the pair have been to watch. President of the USA is a notoriously hard job to land, so it’s pretty amazing to see father and son walk through those same halls in such rapid succession. It’s also been interesting to watch the younger Bush try to fill the shoes of a father who, we think, everyone regards as the lesser president.

So there you have it, five of our favourite father-son combos. Who would be on your list?

BOOK REVIEW: I Didn't Ask To Be Born by Bill Cosby

I Didn't Ask To Be Born (But I'm Glad I Was) is a Literary Comedic look on life by Comedian, Bill Cosby.

• Hardcover: 208 pages
• Publisher: Center Street (Nov 1 2011)
• Language: English

In this hilarious collection of observations, Cosby brings us more of his wonderful and wacky insights into the human condition that are sure to become classics. In the tradition of Fat Albert, I DIDN'T ASK TO BE BORN offers a host of new characters, including Peanut Armhouse and Old Mother Harold. Not since Mushmouth, Dumb Donald, Bucky and the Cosby Kids has there been such a memorable cast.

Over the past century few entertainers have achieved the legendary status of William H. Cosby Jr. His success spans five decades and virtually all media-remarkable accomplishments for a kid who emerged from humble beginnings in a Philly housing project.

In the tradition of his bestselling books, Fatherhood and Cosbyology, the doctor of comedy holds forth on everything from first love to the Bible. Bill Cosby may not have asked to be born, but we're sure glad he was.

I loved the wit and humour shared within these pages and found my giggling over some of the thoughts and antics of Mr. Cosby.  This book delivers the same punch at jokes as only Bill Cosby can deliver.  I loved his viewpoints on God and death and found myself chuckling over his thoughts more than once.

His veiws on fatherhood and the discipline of his children was shared in such a manner that anyone can relate to his anecdotes.  The story about Peanut Armhouse was a very strange tale but worthy of the read, like Mr. Cosby, to this day I wonder whatever happened to Peanut.

Each of the stories shared from his past are down with great visual representation and you can feel yourself traveling along his trip down memory lane.

I thought this was a very decent read and would give it a four out of five stars.  I would've liked to have seen more comic approach in his words but I was delighted with what was shared nonetheless.  And as always, Bill Cosby gets the last word and you'll need to read more to find out why.

5 Celebrities and Their Dogs

When it comes to being a bit gaga about pets, celebs are no different, especially when it comes to their dogs. Whether it be a hand bag sized Chihuahua or a faithful old mutt, many of these A-listers are inseparable from their canine buddies.

Ryan Gosling and George


Ryan Gosling has owned George for 11 years, and the big ol' mutt is becoming a regular feature when the heart-throb is snapped out and about. George is getting on a bit now though and is beginning to need a little help in and out of the car. Ryan was spotted heaving the fellow into the back of his SUV after a walk around Runyon Canyon recently. This however didn't stop George appearing on The Late Night Show with Jimmy Fallon with Gosling where he talked about numerous subjects including George's full body Mohawk. According to Ryan, George insists on the haircut. As it grows out he begins to act more and more unruly, until he's given a punk star trim.

Paris Hilton and Tinkerbell


Let's be honest. Paris Hilton pretty much turned the Chihuahua into a fashion accessory and while that sounds really bad, there is no denying that the heiress absolutely adores her teeny pooch Tinkerbell. She recently posted a picture to twitter of the two of them about to take off for the Hilton family holiday in Aspen. Tinkerbell was wearing a rather festive little number in red...

Jake Gyllenhaal, Atticus and Boo


Jake Gyllenhall's two dogs are named after characters from To Kill A Mockingbird, which is his favourite book. Atticus is an alsatian and Boo is a puggle. That's a cross between a pug and a beagle. Jake is often seen jogging with both by his side. Atticus actually belonged to Jake and ex-partner Kirsten Dunst, the two now share custody as it were.

Blake Lively and Penny


Gossip Girl star Blake Lively owns a Maltipoo, a cross between a Maltese and a Poodle, called Penny who goes absolutely everywhere with her. This led to a modicum of embarrassment in 2008 when Penny had an 'accident' on Blake's dress while out shopping. This wouldn't have been so bad but the entire thing was caught by the paparazzi. They don't miss anything do they? Anyway a large carry bag obscured the wet patch and as far as we know Penny wasn't bothered at all.

Jessica Biel and Tina


Jessica Biel's Tina is a serious breed of dog, an American pit bull. The breed is notorious for being aggressive and is actually banned in some countries. However the attention doted on Tina by Jessica seems to have pacified her and quite often the two of them are seen taking a stroll around Brentwood, California.

Charles and Diana’s Wedding: A Retrospective

Arguably one of the most celebrated and anticipated events in modern history, the wedding of Prince Charles to the then Lady Diana Spencer was viewed by an estimated 750 million people worldwide on television. The congregation at St. Paul’s Cathedral itself comprised three and a half thousand people, whilst the throng of gatherers outside on the streets reached around two million people. Interestingly, the cathedral was chosen as the setting for wedding ceremony due to the fact that is much larger, a break from tradition since typically most royal weddings were conducted at Westminster Abbey.

At around 11:20, Lady Diana concluded her journey to the cathedral with her father, the late 8th Earl Spencer, and walked up the aisle, showing off her 8m long train, which has become one of the most enduring and iconic images within the fashion world today.

The Ceremony
At the time, Charles and Diana’s decision to omit the obeisance vow sparked intrigue in the media and arguably nodded towards the couple’s future troubles to come. What also raised one or two eyebrows was the fact that Diana accidentally listed her future husband’s name in the wrong order, offering herself to a Philip Charles rather than Charles Philip.

Among the clergy carrying out the service were former Archbishop of Canterbury Coggan, Cardinal Hume, the Right Reverend Doig and the Reverend Williams, all of whom led prayers and carried out the various components of the ceremony. Once the couple were wedded, the sound of the jubilatory crowds from outside the cathedral could be heard and the future king and queen boarded their carriage to make for Buckingham Palace, where they were to hold a banquet for 120 members of the Royal Family, friends, and VIP guests. But before they could sit down and ‘tuck in’, Charles and Diana went out to face the crowds that had now filled The Mall leading up to the palace, and in front of the nation and the world they shared a brief, but romantic kiss. The crowds roared with glee.

For the reception, head baker for the Royal Naval cooking school, David Avery and his team, baked a gargantuan twenty seven wedding cakes. According to reports, the official cake itself took 24 hours to bake- 12 hours for the ‘real’ cake, and 12 hours for the ‘backup’. Luckily there was no damage sustained during its journey to Buckingham Palace's banqueting venue, and the substitute was divided amongst the trainee cooks afterwards.

With a glorious day behind them, the following morning the couple hosted a breakfast for the same 120 guests. Soon afterwards, the Prince and Princess of Wales were driven to Waterloo Station where they then travelled onto Hampshire to begin their honeymoon. The rest, as they say, is history.

Barking Politics: Famous First Dogs & the Presidents who Loved Them

In the United States, the most prestigious and stressful job is running the country as President. Faced with hundreds of policies and decisions that affect the entire population on a daily basis, is a tremendous responsibility. Presidents freely step up to this position, and may not comprehend what they are getting themselves into until they are there. It must be quite a slap of reality when four years commitment is staring them in the eye.

What makes this position even more stressful, is that while there are cabinet members help advise the President, the realm of politics is just that, politics. The President can never be 100 percent certain that the advice is not centered on a personal agenda.

Never being able to trust anyone entirely while in term is enough call for many presidents to enlist the companionship of man’s best friend, a dog. It is the loyal, unwavering love and support that dogs offer to their owners that provide a sense of solace for the soul.

Take a look at the dog companionship choice some past Presidents of the United States have made.

George Washington (1st President)
Our nation’s first president enjoyed the companionship of American Foxhounds. In between laying the foundation of our magnificent country, he was breeding and taking care of his hounds. Some reports have claimed Washington had up to 30 different dogs.
Warren G. Harding (29th President)
President Harding was devoted to his Airedale Terrier, keeping him around during all important meetings. In fact, his dog, named Laddie Boy even had his own hand-carved cabinet chair for business meetings.
 Calvin Coolidge (30th President)
President Coolidge and his wife, Grace, were big animal lovers. They kept a pair of collies, named Rob Roy and Prudence Prim, along with many other dogs. Reports have shown the Coolidge’s had a few exotic animals as well, including a bobcat!

Herbert Hoover (31st President)
The 31st Presidents choice in companionship was multiple dogs. President Hoover owned four dogs, consisting of an Irish Wolfhound, an Elkhound and two Fox Terriers.
Franklin D. Roosevelt (32nd President)
President Roosevelt, one of the more memorable Presidents, had a famous best friend as well. His Scottish Terrier not only starred in a movie, he had his own press secretary to handle his many personal appearances.
John F. Kennedy (35th President)
President Kennedy was an avid lover of dogs. He was the first President to ever have his dogs greet him on the helipad when he returned from a trip.

Richard Nixon (37th President)
President Nixon, also a dog lover with many at his side. His dogs of choice included a Poodle, a Terrier and an Irish Setter.
Gerald Ford (38th President)
The 38th President, Gerald Ford loved the companionship of his Golden Retriever. In fact, he also brought his dog, Liberty into meetings, and often used his dog as an excuse to leave Oval Office meetings early.
 George Bush (41st President)
The first President Bush owned Springer Spaniel, named Millie. Millie was an extremely popular Presidential dog, in fact, her book called Millie’s Book outsold the President’s autobiography!

Bill Clinton (42nd President)
After surveying the public’s opinion, President Clinton decided to adopt a Chocolate Labrador which he named Buddy.
George W. Bush (43rd President)
President George W. Bush’s Scottish Terrier named Barney, was another popular Presidential dog. Barney stared in a few movies and has had many websites devoted to him, many of which are still active.

Purchasing A Home - Celebrity Style

Finding and purchasing the right home can be a daunting task for anyone to participate in.  With many styles, designs and price ranges to choose from, the options are many but how does one accomplish such a task?

Celebrities have no worries when acquiring property, if they cannot find the right place, they build them from scratch.  Many celebrities can afford the price tags and curiosity drove me to figure out at what cost and for what commodities does one pay a higher price tag.

The Osbournes have a nice little spread costing them $10 million and offers them 10, 953 sq. ft. This Cape-Cod inspired home located in Hidden Hills, CA is a gated community that offers added protection to the price tag.  With over 2.5 acres of land, six bedrooms, two swimming pools, a basement studio and a home theatre, walk-in closets and a master suite stone fireplace, one can easily see why it was showcased in Architectural Digest.

Will Smith's home is so large that it required its own zip code.  Priced at $20 million dollars this refurbished castle has it owns lake as well as basketball, golf and tennis courts.  The Mediterranean-style home has nine bedrooms, as well as a meditation room and the floor plan is circular giving the ambiance of two people in love.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's home comes with a 23.5 million price tag.  The house has ten bathrooms, seven bedrooms, a pool and a tennis court.  It has 2.5 acres of land and offers a fair amount of privacy as well as a duck pond, a year-round stream.  The Mediterranean-style home also has a full-sized guest house, large rooms and an open floor plan.

Christie Brinkley's home is in the $30 million dollar range and offers 11bedrooms, nine bathrooms and a 50ft. observation deck situated on 20 acres of land.  Her century-old abode is situated on Long Island and includes waterfront property.  

Jerry Seinfeld's $32 million dollar home is located in The Hamptons and includes a 22 car garage, a pool, a guesthouse and a nursery.  Situated on 12 acres including waterfront the house also includes a baseball field.

Billy Joel's $35 million mansion sits on 303,310 sq. ft. beachfront property featuring hand-carved fireplaces and bathrooms made out of onyx.  It has seven bedrooms and sits on its own private island.

Hugh Hefner's pad retails for a whopping $54 million and includes many features sitting upon only 21, 987 sq. ft.  The Playboy Mansion includes a zoo, an aviary, wine cellar, the infamous Grotto, a secret Elvis Presley suite, swimming pools, waterfalls, a tennis court and even its very own pet cemetary.

Oprah Winfrey diva-ness sets her property value at $85 million for 23,000 sq. ft.  and looks like a replica of the White House.  It has 14 bathrooms, ten fireplaces, six bedrooms, a tea house, home cinema, a man-made lake of exotic fish and a rose garden with over 600 rosebushes in bloom.

Bill Gates' 66,000 sq. ft. is priced at $147.5 million dollars located in Medina, Washington.  This high tech home includes a bowling alley, swimming pool and visitors are encouraged to wear a pin that sets the temperature, music and lighting based on one's personal preferences.

Aaron Spelling's $150 million dollar mansion rounds out the list with over 123 rooms.  The 56,500 sq. ft. abode has its own skating rink, orchard, bowling alley, tennis court, swimming pool, a gym, four garages, three kitchens and even three rooms used to gift wrap.

The St. Louis real estate has its own fair share of celebrity homes which have included the likes of Cedric the Entertainer, Chuck Berry, Stan Musiel, Terrence "Geezer" Butler, William Bush, August Busch, Daryl Strawberry and Nelly just to name a few.  

The mortgage rates alone on these places could set most of us back a pretty penny.  However, if your looking to purchase your own home, then you should know what your looking to buy, how much your willing to spend and where you wish for your home to be located.  The world is a vast and wonderful place to live upon and the styles, designs and the added indemnities are endless.

I am participating in a blogger campaign by Bucks2Blog for St Louis realestate and was compensated. However, the views and opinions are my own.

Stella McCartney Brings the Green to Catwalk Fashion

Early Life
The life of Stella McCartney was always destined to be extraordinary. Born to Paul McCartney, the former Beatle, there was no possible way she could stay out of the limelight although not for lack of trying on her parent’s part. Her mother was an animal rights activist and vegan which instilled in Stella McCartney a strong awareness for animals and nature in general.

Another early interest for Stella McCartney was fashion, from the age of 13 she was designing jackets and just three years later found herself interning for Christian Lacroix, an influential French fashion designer. Stella McCartney continued to hone her skills working with Edward Saxton, her father’s personal tailor. Early in the 90s she began her studies at Central Saint Martins College of Art and continued until she hosted her graduation show in 1995. The show was modelled by supermodel friends Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss and made the front page news. Her collection was sold to Tokio, a London boutique.

Stella's Green Conscious

Stella McCartney is a lifelong vegetarian as well as being ever eco-friendly; utilising hanger recycling and leather-free designs. Her ‘no animal’ policy ensures that no leather, fur, wool, silk or any other animal related fabrics are used; she also often includes elaborations on her rules such as a slogan used on a sports collection item stating ‘suitable for sporty vegetarians.’ As a supporter of PETA she has strived to raise awareness for eco-friendly methods in the fashion world designing top class fashion under the green umbrella. Stella McCartney clothing, bags, shoes and gowns all follow her strict ‘no animal’ policy and today eco-friendly designs have become the fashion in no small part thanks to her. Everyone from fashion transportation to boot hanger manufacturers are making efforts to emulate her eco-friendly attitude and that is good news for Mother Earth.

Future Initiatives

Recently Stella McCartney expanded her range to include kids clothing and now she even has a pair of eco-friendly sunglasses available. Stella McCartney perfume use only agents that do not affect the ozone layer and have been selling like hotcakes. The Stella McCartney dress range continues to be her biggest draw card however and she strives to put her message across whenever she can. With a rumoured return to the London Fashion Week after a decade long absence, we’re sure that Stella McCartney is only going to get better and better as her style matures and that is a positive thing for the earth.

Eugene Calvini enjoys fashion almost as much as fashion. A green attitude toward fashion is one he would like to encourage.
