If I thought Jimmy Choo for H&M was crazy, I should have driven down to Westwood to put things in perspective. Twilight fans have been lining up since Thursday to catch a glimpse of Robsten & Co. at tonight’s premiere of New Moon.(That’s FOUR nights!!!)
If you’re planning to go see the flick, I think Wildfox Couture’s Vampire Love Jumper ($108) is the perfect thing to wear. It doesn’t matter if you’re on Team Edward or Team Jacob, or if you love Kristen Stewart because she plays Bella or hate her because she gets to kiss Rob Pattinson everyday.
The sweatshirt is completely neutral and just adorable with its blood-dripping smiley face. Lindsay Lohan wore it in yellow but I prefer the coral version. Throw it on over leggings and motorcycle boots and you’ll be comfortable but one of the best dressed amongst all those Twi-hards in line.
This vampire obsession just keeps getting bigger. The other day I heard about Robert Pattison undies—so gross! HBO’s True Blood jewelry is more up my alley. Granted, I’d never pay this much for jewelry that resembles blood and has a fang-like clasp but it’s pretty cool to look at.
A friend recently asked me to be a model for a MAC shoot that was creating different Halloween looks for The Los Angeles Times. I gave you guys a sneak preview last week and now the whole feature is up online. MAC senior makeup artist John Stapleton, who created my vampire look—as well as the aquatic look—is truly a genius. Enjoy!
And make sure you come back to ThinkThruFashion tomorrow for a behind-the-scenes look of the shoot.
ttF Daily Faves hibernated during Fashion Week but they’ve returned now that all the spring trends are covered. For the rest of October, I’m dedicating each Daily Fave to my fave holiday, Halloween. Yesterday was Heidi Klum’s costume tips. And today is In Style’s new The Twilight Saga: New Moon makeovers.
Everyone wants to be a vampire these days, and if you can’t get a MAC makeup artist to turn you into one, all you need to do is upload a picture of yourself on to Instyle.com. I transformed into Rosalie, but Alice, Esme, Jane and of course Bella are also available. Alice probably would have been a better choice considering Nikki Reed pulls off blonde hair way better than I do.
There are even Edward, Jacob and Carlisle options if your hubby wants to join in on the Twilight fun too.
Another reason I heart Heidi Klum? She loves Halloween as much as I do! I just ran across the supermodel’s top ten costume tips . Enjoy!
Heidi Klum’s Top 10 Halloween Costume Ideas
1. Sexy cat. You can make a cat costume yourself with a few things. Get a leotard and some fabric paint at places like Pearl Paint (www.pearlpaint.com) or Michaels (www.michaels.com). Then you can paint cat patterns right onto the leotard to make it more interesting. Buy a dog collar with a tag and put a fun message on it. For example, when I was a cat in 2007, I put “If lost, please return to Seal.” You can also buy cat ears and a fake tail that can be attached with a few stitches or a safety pin. Add in some sexy high heels or boots. Really go for it and paint your face like a sexy city cat. Don’t forget the whiskers!

Halloween is my favorite holiday. So when my friend asked me if I wanted to be a model for a costume beauty story for the Los Angeles Times I didn’t have to even think twice before saying yes.
On Friday, I joined two other models at the MAC store on Robertson and was magically transformed into a vampire. Here’s a sneak peak of the ridiculously awesome bloody mouth MAC makeup artist John created for the shoot using lip stain. I’ll be posting all the behind the scene shots of my vampire makeover, as well as the Lady Gaga poker face and aquatic looks, next weekend when the article comes out in the Image section of the newspaper.
