ZOOEY MAGAZINE & JED FOUNDATION'S LOVE IS LOUDER 1ST ANNIVERSARY RED CARPET AND PARTY



I am so excited to present to you twelve of Tinseltown’s most fashionable celebrities who came out to help Zooey Magazine and Love Is Louder campaign celebrate their 1st anniversary at Drai’s Hollywood at the “W” Hotel located in Hollywood , California on October 6, 2011. I began the night by standing at my post along the red carpet which lucky for me was located at the very end of the red carpet. This way, I got the last interview in before the stars headed up to the rooftop for the party festivities complete with a pool, DJ and yummy cupcakes compliments of Goodie Girls’. As each star arrived on the red carpet, I could see “flashbulbs” going off as they posed for the ton of paparazzi cameras; I waited patiently as they made there way down the carpet towards me. I made sure that the 8x 10 piece of white paper with “QUEENIE 4 EVER” in bold black lettering taped on the floor was visible, so the celebrities and their publicists were aware that the long haired brunette girl wearing the bow tiara and purple tulle party dress was in fact a legitimate celebrity reporter. I guess it worked, because the celebrities found their way over to me and I was more than happy to interview them about my favorite subject. Fashion!

There was a common trend among the celebrity ladies that evening that exuded adjectives such as feminine, simple elegance, and breathtaking! This particular look began with a soft romantic curls hairstyle, a pretty dress, delicate accessories, and high heels. I discovered that some celebrities have an affinity for borrowing pieces to pull together their look which I think is a fabulous idea. Why spend money when you can borrow something from a friend or family member? Just remember to return it. Lol! I immediately made a mental note to dig through my mom’s massive clothing collection and jewelry boxes next time I am home. As a college student on a budget, I don’t think she’ll mind if I borrow a few things instead of blowing a big chunk of my college fund on unnecessary clothing that she already has in her closet. Besides, I don’t mind if she borrows my stuff too.

I hope that you will be inspired by the variety of beautiful well put together looks that each celebrity wore on the red carpet as much as I was. And, I hope you can find a style that they wore that you fall in love with for yourself and make it your own by putting your own spin on it. Fashion is all about knowing how to put individual pieces together to create a really cool look that shows the world- this is me! So get ready to take notes on who wore what, who offered personal style tips, who borrowed what from where, and who answered my question- what makes you feel like a Princess! I couldn’t resist asking btw. After all, my Queenie4ever blog is all about living “a fashion fairytale”.
