ASK SANTA FOR A SPARKLING SWIMSUIT!






Have you been naughty or nice? Mark your list for Santa with a sexy swimsuit from the Zoë NYC Collection and book a flight to an exotic location to ring in 2010! Zoë NYC swimsuits have the perfect amount of sparkle and shine to make you feel like a princess this holiday season.

Travels to exotic locales serve as inspiration for the designer, Zoë Haggerty. While traveling, she immerses herself in local culture, relishing her stays at under-the-radar hotels and scouring local vintage marts. The lush beaches of St Tropez influence the styles of the suits, while the embroidery, stones and accessory inspirations hail from trips to India. Italy serves as the inspiration for the quality of production and craftsmanship, as the designer splits her time between there and New York City. The result? A lush and exotic swimwear collection unlike any other.

The collection, launched in 2006 and made entirely in Northern Italy, is double constructed of Italian microfibers using a process unique to the region and not found elsewhere in the current U.S swimwear market. The suits are embellished with authentic Swarovski crystals, amethysts, and stones. Everything is of the highest quality, ensuring a comfortable, flattering, and chic look.


Zoë NYC also introduced the first T-shirt bikini. Made from cotton jersey with seamless raw edges, the suit is incredibly versatile. It’s a favorite among the young Italian set, who have been known the roll the waistline to make it smaller and experiment with different styles of knotting. The possibilities are as broad as one’s imagination.


To ensure a fabulous Christmas morning, leave your list for Santa near the tree! And it doesn’t hurt to print out a photo of your favorite Zoë NYC swimsuit along with an article from a travel magazine! Happy Holidays!

To view the full collection and list of stores, please visit www.zoenyc.com. Become a fan of Zoe NYC on Facebook and stay updated with new styles and information!

SINGER SPOTLIGHT: DEBI NOVA.



Already a massive star in her native Costa Rica, with six Grammy Award nominations and a number one dance single under her belt, singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Debi Nova is ready to make her mark on the rest of the world. In March 2010, Decca Records will release Nova’s genre-defying, debut album Luna Nueva. The album is an electrifying combination of irresistible Latin rhythms and potent pop smarts that showcase this vivacious artist's considerable musical gifts (she plays piano, guitar, bass and more) as well as her rich Latina heritage. Produced by multi-Grammy nominated Marius de Vries (Madonna, Josh Groban) and Gustavo Santaolalla ("Brokeback Mountain," "Babel"), Luna Nueva is a labor of love, long in the making, which not only showcases Nova’s electrifying vocals and musicianship, but her songwriting talents as well. The first single is the playful soca/hip-hop inspired “Drummer Boy.”

Debi has toured with both Ricky Martin and Sergio Mendes as a featured vocalist and has performed for more than 8 million people globally. As a songwriter, the Costa Rican beauty has written hit songs for Belinda and RBD, two of Latin Americas biggest artists.

Learn more about Debi's process of recording an album in both English and Spanish in this new EPK and experience her sound first hand on "Drummer Boy."

LADY GAGA 'BAD ROMANCE' MAKE-UP TUTORIAL.



Check out this pretty cool tutorial I found on YouTube, which shows how to get a look similar to Lady GaGa in her Bad Romance music video. The video is about 6 1/2 minutes long, and may be difficult to some to complete -- but the outcome is fun. I would recommend this tutorial for the people who are open-minded when it comes to trying new things.

CUTE BUY OF THE DAY: FACE SCREEN TOP.



Love it!! For the cute buy of the day I chose this white top which features an abstract face design (on the front side only) found at Twelve by Twelve. This long shirt would look best with leggings -- but they don't have to be just black, try metallics, lace and whatever else your creative mind can think of. I hope ya'll enjoy.

ADORABLE 2 YEAR OLD GIRL SINGS TAYLOR SWIFT'S "YOU BELONG WITH ME"

CELEBS @ THE TWILIGHT: NEW MOON PREMIERE.



Check out some of the celebrities that were attending the Twilight: New Moon premiere.  The event was held at Mann's Village Theatre in Westwood, California on November 16th, 2009.  Pictured above is the main star, Robert Pattinson who looked sharp in a black suit. I still think he looks like a zombie!



Next is another one of the big stars, Kristen Stewart, whose hair is a mess and looks mad as usual.  The dress didn't do much for her either.  Pictured below in a gorgeous red dress is actress Ashley Greene.  She looked beautiful in a flowing red dress, and slightly wavy hair.





And of course I can't forget about child star, Dakota Fanning, who I happen to be a huge fan of.  She looks cute but I am not feeling the dress at all -- however I will say that her shoes are mighty fierce.  Also pictured below is hottie Kellan Lutz, who stuck to a suit like Robert -- but without a tie.



And last but not least I have a picture of the author Stephenie Meyer. I must say she chose a very unflattering mermaid-style dress.  But I am loving the bright red lips for sure!  Who do U think looked the best??

Waking Up is available in both a regular and deluxe edition which will include bonus tracks "Trap Door," "Sucker Punch," "Passenger," and "It's A Shame."

Waking Up, recorded in their hometown Denver, is the band's most sweeping, cinematic effort to date, with even more strings and movie-like moments, thanks in part to the use of the same children's choir and orchestra used by Batman and Edward Scissorhands composer Danny Elfman (with whom Tedder has shared ideas). Plus, OneRepublic has recently added co-writer and bass and cello player Brent Kutzle to its lineup. "All he listened to before getting into this band was soundtracks," Tedder says. "He can name every score and soundtrack guy from the last 15 years."

SINGER SPOTLIGHT: NIKKI YANOFSKY.




Introducing Nikki Yanofsky, the 15-year-old singing sensation set to take the world by storm. Raised on jazz, Nikki has been singing all her life and has been compared to greats Billie Holliday, Judy Garland, and Ella Fitzgerald. Her hometown newspaper, the Montreal Gazette, says of her voice, "there is a richness and a maturity and a heart and an effortlessness that divas twice or three times her age would kill for."

Now, this energetic and gifted teenager - with a smile as big as her voice - is preparing a new album full of re-imagined jazz standards, folk classics and original material. Set for an early 2010 release, Nikki's album was produced by Phil Ramone and Jesse Harris (Norah Jones), and will showcase her songwriting collaborations with Harris and lengendary singer-songwriter Ron Sexsmith. Another highlight includes a song written for her by the indie darling Feist. For a taste of what is to come, check out videos from Nikki's RawSessions, where she performs her original song "For Another Day" and covers the Beatles, Norah Jones and more.

Check out the video of her singing 'For Another Day' after the jump!
