Heidi Klum at the 2009 Emmy Awards

Heidi Klum never looks bad. her Emmy Awards appearance last (last) weekend proved my point-- even as pregnant as she is, the woman looked, and looks gorgeous. to compliment her black Marchesa gown, the supermodel mommy opted to wear an updo that was a modern interpretation of a 50's style while keeping her makeup fresh and glowing.

hairstylist Michel Aleman used products by Fekkai to create her hairstyle:

started by applying Coiff Bouffant Lifting & Texurizing Spray Gel to the hair in order to generate some texture. he then blow-dried the hair and applied Coiff Oceanique Tousled Wave Spray to create soft waves.

he made a strong middle part, while making sure the hair in front was smooth but pulled back softly. next, he formed two pony tails to the back of the head. teasing each ponytail to create volume, he then brought the two together into one dramatic chignon.



the look was finished by applying Sheer Hold Hairspray and Brilliant Glossing Sheer Shine Mist throughout the entire look for a smooth and feminine result.

Fekkai can be found in Nordstrom and Sephora stores and online at fekkai.com

who: Heidi Klum

beach bag: i like a heavy-duty bag with lots of room for all the things the kids need at the beach.

cover up: one of my favorite labels, Thomas Wylde, has a beautiful chiffon cover-up that i wear all the time, and J.Crew cotton sweaters are comfortable and inexpensive.

cover up: i found a cute dress from this boutique Wink in new york that i'll be getting good use out of this summer.

Heidi Klum Shares Her Red Carpet Look for the Oscar's

on monday, supermodel Heidi Klum, along with celebrity makeup artist Linda Hay, launched Victoria’s Secret Makeup Spring Look Kit and demonstrated how to get Heidi’s red carpet Oscar look for under $50!

the look for the night will be all about soft romantic, classic Hollywood glamour (love that!). and to achieve Heidi's subtle, yet elegant look, Hay uses a flirty, pink palate finished with chocolates and nudes for a soft, smoky effect (sounds gorgeous, don't you think?). this will be the first time anyone can achieve Heidi's look with simple step-by-step instructions and only five products.

how, you ask? with the products featured in the Victoria's Secret Makeup Spring Look kit, of course.

the set includes:
Highlighter/Blush Duo in Fresh
Eye Shadow Quad in Devoted, Primal, Rich and Champagne
High-definition Mascara in Blackest Black
Lip Gloss in Blush

this set will be sold in VS stores and online at victoriassecret.com for $49.

and speaking of the Oscars, Heidi has also created a gift for the Best Actress nominees. check it out...

for the 81st annual Academy Awards, Victoria’s Secret partnered with supermodel Heidi Klum to design the Vintage Victoria Gift Set exclusively for the Best Actress nominees. the gift includes a Victoria’s Secret Vintage Victoria Push-up Bra in Wineberry and Blush Pink embellished with a diamond and pearl pin as the centerpiece. a matching thong completes the look.

featuring pear-shaped diamonds and black pearls, Klum designed the fine jewelry piece attached to the center of the new Vintage Victoria Push-up Bra especially for this year’s nominees. the broach, which can also be worn as a hair pin, reflects the hollywood glamour and sophistication that the leading ladies of Hollywood have long portrayed.


the beautiful Vintage Victoria Lingerie Gift Set by Heidi Klum will be presented to the Best Actress nominees the week before Oscars and has a retail value of $6,000.

wow...it really is an honor to be nominated...

look of the day: Heidi Klum

Heidi Klum attended a party- to celebrate then new Victoria's Secret flagship store on lexington avenue- in nyc wearing a crazy fabulous strapless dress from the Louis Vuitton Spring 2009 collection. i love the embellishments on this dress! she paired the dress with Louis Vuitton heels, and a new, fresh haircut!

her eyes stand out with sheer shadow and bold lashes that really compliment her red lipcolor.

what do you think of her new haircut?

don't forget: tonight is the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show on cbs!

Spotted at L.A. Fashion Week: Heidi Klum

ok, i was literally getting ready to leave Smashbox Studios when a black suv pulled up, and i saw a photog frantically wave down his friend to come over.

i knew it had to be someone worth getting excited about.

and it was....Heidi Klum!


my pics below...








clearly, my camera wasn't very fast when she walked right past me (she didn't really stop for anyone). but i can say, she looked great!
