Quentin Tarantino is Going to Be a First-Time Dad!

Posted on August 22, 2019

Congrats to Kill Bill director Quentin Tarantino and his wife, singer, Daniella Pick, who announced that they are expecting their first child.

In a statement to US celebrity magazine People, a representative for the couple said: “Daniella and Quentin Tarantino are very delighted to announce that they are expecting a baby.”

The couple met over 10 years ago when he was promoting his hit film Inglorious Basterds and married just last year.

The timing is great because the Django Unchained director was just telling talk show host Jimmy Kimmel on his show Jimmy Kimmel Live! that he was interested in starting a family.

“I haven’t been married,” he said. “I haven’t had kids, I just got married, I want to have kids.”

Tarantino’s newest project, the movie Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, is in cinemas now.

Cushnie et Ochs is My new Celeb Fave Designer Label

Posted on February 25, 2018

It was only a week ago that I discovered the long-established line Cushnie et Ochs when I saw Khloe Kardashian wearing one of its designs, the Black Pyramid Pencil Dress cut out dress on an appearance of Jimmy Kimmel Live about a month ago.

“Since launching in 2008, the line has offered a solid selection of structured, cut-out, body-con dresses, landed in retailers like Bergdorf Goodman and Net-A-Porter, and received the Ecco Domani Award, a CFDA Swarovski Award nomination, and a finalist spot in the CFDA/VogueFashion Fund,” Refinery 29 reports.

The label is a fave of stars like Selena Gomez, Camila Cabello, Teigen and Michelle Obama and is known for its intricate cut outs and asymmetrical lines and I have been exploring some of their designs and find them to be quite flattering and chic.

And I learned I am not alone in the new discovery. A popular fashion site described the label as coming out of nowhere and exploding on the scene! Read about it here then check out some of their other looks we like below:

Get Khloe Kardashian’s $3000 Satin Maternity Look for $50

Posted on February 3, 2018

Not just Chrissy Teigen, but Khloe Kardashian is another hard working expecting mom. The first-time mom-to-be has wrapped a busy promotional calendar for her E! TV show Revenge Body with Khloe Kardashian which just returned to the air last month.

She gave several interviews during that time and we spotted some pretty cute ones we’d like to cop, like the navy satin Cushnie et Ochs Black Pyramid Pencil Dress cut out dress she wore on an appearance of Jimmy Kimmel Live about a month ago.

The label is a fave of stars like Selena Gomez, Camila Cabello, Teigen and Michelle Obama and is known for its intricate cut outs and asymmetrical lines.

The Good American Apparel co-founder draped a similar color trench jacket by Galvan which retails for $1,175. The dress goes for $1,695.

If you want a much less costlier version and don’t mind getting it shipped from Amazon, you can pick up a similar dress by Hello MIZ. Their Women’s Cold Shoulder Knee Length Fitted Maternity dress starts at $19.99 and has gotten great reviews from customers who bought the dress!

And Amie Finery has a similar Cut Out Cold Shoulder Dress that isn’t just for pregnant women but comes in a loose fitting A-line so it could accommodate them too. That dress too starts at about $20 bucks! Add an Open Front Cape Trench Duster coat by HaoDuoYi which retails $26.94 and you’ve recreated Khloe’s nearly $3,000 look for about $50!

Score!

But if you insist on copping the original, the line has pieces that start about $250! Totally doable!

‘Girls Trip’s Tiffany Haddish Viral Jimmy Kimmel Live! Story is a Great Plug for GroupOn!

Posted on July 25, 2017

Girls Trip breakout star Tiffany Haddish told a hilarious story on Jimmy Kimmel Live! about taking Will and Jada Pinkett-Smith, her co-star in the summer hit movie, to a Cajun swamp store using a Groupon deal.

It was such a great story and told with such authenticity and charisma that the rising actress-comedienne has gone viral. Watch it here if you missed it!

The video is also a gem because of the fact that the multi-millionaire mega duo was clueless as to what a GroupOn is! I’m not sure if the folks at GroupOn have seized upon all the free publicity of the fun segment yet or not, but I would!

Haddish story was about adventure attractions. Best of Orlando is another merchant offering free Universal Studios and Disney World Tickets and 25% off the cost of a ticket. Anyone who has been to one of those theme parks in Florida are aware that they are price at over $100 a ticket so as you can imagine, getting $25 off is a deal!

Wanderlust frequent travelers and thrill vacationers should check out the deals at Bookings.com and Hotels.com where I spied free one night stays and more!

Bump Watch: Kerry Washington has Been Sticking with a Mainly Black Style Pallete

Posted on August 16, 2016

Since announcing her pregnancy at the 2016 Met Gala, Scandal star Kerry Washington has been laying low, but not as out of the spotlight as with her first pregnancy. She has made a few public appearances and in most of them, she looks to have selected to stick with a mainly black color pallete.

For example, at producer Jennifer Klein‘s 19th annual Day of Indulgence party held in the LA home of the Pearl Harbor associate producer, Washington donned a black HATCH Chloe jumpsuit to the Los Angeles, California event held on August 14, 2016. According to the YBF, or other bump watch alums, Kristen Bell was at the even as well. So were alums Jennifer Lopez and Anna Farris, InStyle magazine reports.

Washington and her husband, former NFL player Jimmy Kimmel LiveNnamdi Asomugha are expecting their second child. She decided to not film her hit ABC show while pregnant and succumb to all of the crazy ways show producers attempted to hide her bump. The show will return for its 6th season in the middle of the fall season, and on election night to be precise.

“We are basically going to start out the season on election night,” how creator Shonda Rhimes has said. “Yes, it is going to play into our season, but we’re not going to spend our time playing an election.”

She had to also get out of the house this past June 13 to collect her Actors Inspiration Award given at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation 7th annual L.A. Golf Classic Fundraiser in Burbank, California. She went with a floral light and airy Giambattista Valli bohemian dress with black and white heels from Sarah Jessica Parker‘s collection.

The next day, she broke up the black with white and was there for her friend President Barack Obama and his wife First Lady Michelle Obama when she spoke at the White House Summit on the United State Of Women June 14, 2016 in Washington, DC. it was the White House’s first ever summit to push for gender equality.

Out of all her looks, I love the black ribbed flare dress she wore during a taping of Jimmy Kimmel Live‘ on May 12, 2016. And I also adored the Brandon Maxwell cape dress she wore paired with Gianvito Rossi pumps in April at an event (see first image in above collage.)
