Dunzo: Spencer and Heidi

Heidi's rep issued the following statement today: "Heidi is looking to move out due to all the fake bad press that Spencer controls. She’s tired of it and is looking for a place and wants to focus on her acting career." Heidi tweeted earlier this week, "I am not Heidi Pratt, I am Heidi Montag."  Everything is a publicity stunt with these two so who knows how valid this is, but they definitely deserve each other.

Mommy and Me: Isla and Olive

Isla Fisher took her daughter Olive out for some fro you in Los Angeles. 
A onesie is a bold move for a preggo!

Lakers Love from Celebs

Ian Somerholder, Nina Dobrev, and Zac Efron all cheered on the Lakers last night at Staples Center. Zac is so pretty, it makes me giggle.

KCav, Audrina, and Whitney on the Go

Whitney Port shops in New York.  I cannot stand the majority of what she wears and this is no exception.  Ugh.  Kristin Cavallari, on the other hand, looks snappy cas(ual) as she grabs gas in Brentwood, then films with Audrina for The Hills.

Now This is How to Do Rain!

Kate Hudson looks chic and prepared for any storms heading her way as she arrives in London.  This comes after another day of filming Something Borrowed in New York (in which she apparently wore her wardrobe right off the set and on to the plane.  Wearing a jumpsuit does not sound fun if you need to use the airplane lavatory.)

Workin' It Out: Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon isn't going to let a little rain stop her from getting to the gym.  She heads into a workout in Brentwood with a pal.  Here's hoping the rain disappears for the long weekend!

When it Rains, Angelenos Fashion Fail

We here in SoCal are so spoiled by so much sunshine and mild weather that when the rain comes out, everybody tends to look rough.  I had my rain wardrobe nailed down when I lived in SF, but have since reverted to completely clueless at the sign of inclement weather.  This also explains why last week in New York I was caught in sandals, a sundress, and white cardigan in a complete downpour and had to stop to buy a trenchcoat, umbrella, and yet another pair of Hunters (I think I'm picking up a pair everytime I'm in New York since I always fail to pack them - these are aubergine). 

Let's let the celebs demostrate this phenomenon:  Rachel Bilson piles on the layers while running errands in Hollywood.  The almost always done up Kim Kardashian sports sweats while grabbing smoothies in Beverly Hills. Britney Spears takes her kids to school in her Uggs and sweats, while Lindsay Lohan opts for a chunky sweater, beanie, and sweats for a court appearance (seriously?).

 

If I was properly prepared, you'd find me in the rain in a bright pair of Hunters, a classic Burberry trench, skinny dark denim jeans or black leggings, a chunky white sweater or extra long boyfriend cardigan, and maybe a knit beret resting on the back of my head. Someday I'll be prepared! What do you wear when it rains?

SATC Premieres in London

Sarah Jessica Parker in Alexander McQueen and a Philip Treacy hat only she could do.  Her arm band is a tribute to her designer friend.  Cynthia Nixon chose a simple, sleek Narcisco Rodriguez and soft waves. Kristin Davis wore yet another dress from Decades, this time a shimmery Norman Norell vintage piece. Still searching for who made Kim Cattrall's Barbie dress.  Anybody know?  Man, has KDavis got some volume or what?

 

Emma Roberts also attended because she is in town for work. 
Those are definitely the trademark Roberts lips!

Yeah, Hi, You're Perfect Carrie Underwood

Is this dress not perfection on her?  Carrie Underwood nails it in a Rafael Cennamo mini.  The metallic is dramatic enough for the event and a fresh, surprising choice for spring.  She also wore a dress by this designer for Idol Gives Back.  Think she's growing her hair out for her wedding?

 
She did some shopping earlier in the day at Kitson on Robertson with her fiance.

Catching Up with The Hills and City Girls

Audrina Patridge is living in jumpers this Spring and she can definitely pull them off.  She picked up some clothes on Melrose yesterday and let her trusty assistant do the heavy lifting.  Stephanie Pratt and her boyfriend Josh Hansen attended a charity event at MI-6 in West Hollywood.  I'm not a fan of that space, everything is low - the seats, the ceiling, it's like sitting in a limo.  Kristin Cavallari looked none too stoked about attending a party for an entertainment website earlier this week.  Unsurprisingly, she is jumping on the author bandwagon and planning a tell-all novel for when The Hills finally wraps.  Whitney Port and Roxy Olin attended Grand Hyatt Hotel at Grand Central in New York City last night for the 32nd Annual AAFA American Image Awards, after Whitney spent a day running errands in what look like patterned biker shorts? Ugh.

National Movie Awards: Emma, Gwyneth, Kylie

At the National Movie Awards in London, Gwyneth Paltrow got girlie in pink Prada, Diane Kruger toughened up in a Lanvin dress, Kylie Minogue got hip with designer of the minute Emilio Pucci, and DON style fav Emma Watson wins again in a jumpsuit by Karl Largerfeld and Loubs.  Her hair looks like it was stuck under a hat all day, but the rest is so precious, I'll allow it.

DON's Dishes: Pita Bread

I don't each much bread, but I've been craving some carbs with my morning coffee.  This morning I decided on whole wheat pitas.  They cook so quickly, are lower in calories than most bread, and  I love them stuffed with scrambled egg whites. 

Little balls of dough awaiting some squashing.

Squashed and floured for baking.
Toss them right on the rack of a super hot oven.  Two minutes on each side and they are dunzo!
Falling flour means I need to clean the oven tonight, boo.

Hot whole pitas cooling behind a cut one awaiting breakfast filling. Yummers!


Recipe after the jump!

Reunited and it Feels So Good: TomKat

Just as we were discussing via Twitter the lack of together time for Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, they have made a slew of public appearances recently.  At the National Movie Awards in London, the two dressed up for some red carpet pics.  Katie looks amazing, don't you think?  They have also spent time dining out and shopping with Suri.  Isn't it a bummer that Tom seems super happy and smiling in every photo and Katie always seems so miserable or just barely tolerant of her life?

DON's Deal: Ryan Kwanten

If you watch True Blood, you know Ryan Kwanten as the almost always nekkid redneck with a penchant for getting into trouble. He was amazingly gracious and sweet at our event last night, even after my co-worker introduced herself with "I love you."  I thought he might call security.  But he's a cutie and a cool guy to boot.  He spent the entire day filming and I'm excited to see season 3.  I told him I just watched season 1 on my flight to New York, but had to turn it off because I was getting looks for the racy content, then proceed to ask him about how he films such graphic scenes, then wondered how I'd stumbled into this topic. Embarrassing!  Here he is in front of the fire dancers last night.



Oh, and you know who is crazy?  Macy Gray.  I spoke with her briefly (I mean, wtf do you talk to her about?) and she was just flying high. And Lisa D'Amato from ANTM and Sober House was getting down - pretty sure she is not sober anymore.

Where in the World is LiLo?

Lindsay Lohan spent 10 long hours at a salon in Beverly Hills yesterday distracting from her recent bad press with new blonde locks.  Her hair must be so fried going from black to blonde! 
Also spending some time at a salon was Britney Spears, who stopped by our event just before it began last night and of course I missed it.  The thing everybody agreed on was that she looked sad.

Posh Portfolio: Shopping in LA

Victoria Beckham returned to sleek tresses as she shopped at Barneys in Los Angeles.

Olivia Palermo in NYC

Olivia Palermo attended an event in the Meatpacking district last night wearing Mulberry.  Not my favorite look of hers, but the palette works.  Are any of you watching The City?  I gave it up.  Olivia was kind of the only person I was curious about and she's such a witch, I couldn't deal.

London Calling: Gwyneth, Emma, David, Orlando

Gwyneth Paltrow was on hand to unveil the latest Louis Vuitton store, this time on New Bond Street in London. She's wrapped her Iron Man 2 duties and is ready to begin work on the thriller Contagion, which also stars Matt Damon, Marion Cotillard, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, and Laurence Fishburne.


Emma Roberts looked darling at her London premiere of 4,3,2,1.  I never see her wear her hair curly!
David Beckham travels in style as he catches a flight at Heathrow.  Orlando Bloom is in London where he is beginning work on a new film.  He is also rumored to be starring in a new Three Musketeers remake.  Can we hope for a new ballad from Sting, Rod Stewart, and Bryan Adams again?
