Celebrity brand addiction: Rihanna & Betsey Johnson

Rihanna está que no para. Ruedas de prensa, promociones, conciertos, festivales. Y casi en cada ocasión elige por lo menos un modelito de Betsey Johnson (hace solamente un par de días cuando he vuelto a hablar sobre su amor hacia las creaciones de la diseñadora). El primer vestido es el que lució durante su actuación en el Essence Music Festival, el segundo lo eligió para otra actuación suya - ayer en el "THISDAY Music and Fashion Festival" en Abuja, Nigeria. Esto sí que se llama brand addiction.

Rihanna just doesn't stop. Press conferences, promotions, concerts, festivals. And she choses an outfit by Betsey Johnsson for almost every ocassion (I was talking again about her love for Betsy Johnson designs just a couple of days ago). The first dress she rocked it during her Essence Music Festival performance, the second one is from yesterday - Rihanna on the stage of "THISDAY Music and Fashion Festival" in Abuja, Nigeria. This is what I call brand addiction.




Si te gustan, ambos están disponibles en la tienda oficial de Betsey Johnson.

Like them? Both are available through the official Betsey Johnson shop.

Celebrity brand addiction: Eva Longoria & Juicy Couture

Lo mismo que Beyoncé por Chanel, siente Eva Longoria por Juicy Couture, marca que la acompaña vaya donde vaya. Estos solamente son algunos ejemplos de los últimos meses.

The same Beyoncé feels for Chanel, Eva Longoria feels for Juicy Couture, brand she choses very often for her everyday life but also for some of her public appearances. These are only some examples from the last two months.

Cover Girl: Rihanna for InStyle

Otra chica de la portada. Rihanna en InStyle (Agosto). Aún no tengo más información, pero espero que como la protagonista es una mujer atrevida, el editorial lo reflejará, y habrá sorpresas positivas. Te mantendré al tanto. Mientras esperamos, Rihanna en la portada vestida en Bill Blass. Lo que no sé es si el modelito es la blusa o el vestido de la colección de Otoño.

Another cover girl. Rihanna on the August InStyle cover. Don't have more info yet, but believe since the protagonist is a daring woman, the editorial will reflect it so I expect a positive surprise. I'll keep you posted. Meanwhile the picture of Rihanna wearing Bill Blass. The only thing I don't know is whether the creation she wears is the blouse or the dress from his Fall 2008 collection.

Cover Girl: Jessica Biel for Harper's Bazaar US

Jessica Biel aparecerá en la portada de Harper's Bazaar EEUU el próximo mes de Agosto. Una portada muy normalita, nada especial, con un editorial denominado "Bailando con diseñadores" que, además de presentar los vestidos de varios diseñadores, todos de las colecciones de Otoño 2008, no me transmite absolutamente nada. Me pareció buena idea eso de no hacer lo de siempre sino prepararnos un editorial donde la estrella y el diseñador aparecen juntos. Lo que no me gusta es la ejecución. Las poses y el resultado final son poco naturales y da igual si están al lado de Jessica o ella está en el primer plano, resaltan mucho más los diseñadores que la misma protagonista del editorial (¿o solamente me lo parece a mí?). ¿Ha sido este el objetivo? ¿Entonces el editorial se debería llamar "Bailando con Jessica Biel, no? ¿Qué te parece a tí?

Jessica Biel is August Harper's Bazaar US cover girl. The cover is nothing special. The editorial is called "Dancing With Designers" and on top of featuring Jessica Biel wearing several famous designer dresses, all of them from Fall 2008 collections, the pictures don't transmit anything to me. I found it very good idea not to do always the same and rather go for an editorial where the star and the designers appear together. What I don't like is the execution. Both the poses and the final result are not natural and overall the designers stand out much more than the protagonist of the editorial, no matter whether they are next to her of pose behind her (or am I the only one feeling this?). Was this the objective? Because otherwise the editorial name should be "Dancing with Jessica Biel", shouldn't it? What do you think?
