celebrity style

Are there many things that we like more than prom and Pretty Little Liars? We don't think so! We've been keeping up with Ashley on PLL, and of course we're obsessed with all of the Faviana prom dresses that she modeled in. But, now she's on the April 2013 cover of Seventeen Magazine! As part of the feature article, Seventeen sat down with her at the Faviana headquarters in NYC to get the scoop on her favorite looks for prom, PLL, and her new film, Spring Breakers.

When it came to prom looks, we were so surprised to hear that Ashley has never even been to prom before! When Seventeen asked what style dress she'd wear to prom, she answered:

"I actually never went to prom before! I would probably wear a short, fun dress. Faviana is a line that girls can feel super-glamorous in. A lot of their designs are kind of based off of what celebrities wear on the red carpet!"

We can agree with her on that - Faviana definitely has some super glamorous dresses!

As far as PLL goes, Ashley's inside scoop on the season finale is getting us way too excited to find out what happens already:

"Well, we find a body. We don't know if it's dead or alive. Also, we get trapped in a house with "A" and all the helpers. There's a big fire that happens. We all kind of get near death. As always!"

Surprise, Surprise! Kendall & Kylie Jenner were yet again found in a fashion magazine! While they weren't the cover girls this month, Glamour featured them in their March 2013 issue, where they had a short, but great interview with the sisters.

In the interview, they talked all about family and constantly being in the spotlight, as well as, of course, fashion and beauty tips. Kendall mentioned that when it comes to make-up, she loves the natural look, and that the two of them always make sure to wear sunscreen on their faces. Smart! Kylie mentioned, "I always end up wearing red and black." Those are definitely two colors that go perfect together! Our favorite piece of style advice came from Kendall: "I start out with one piece that I really want to wear and build from there to make it better." Great idea when it comes to prom dresses, that's for sure!

Even though we didn't include Kristen Stewart in our Best Dressed at the 2013 Oscars blog post earlier this week, we were still absolutely in love with her look! We were especially impressed with her style considering she was stuck on crutches for the night!

The white lace gown look has definitely been a popular trend lately, and will continue to be for Prom 2013. There's a lot of different options as far as getting Kristen's look for prom, but we especially love La Femme style 18951. It's a gorgeous white lace mermaid dress with a trumpet silhouette, sweetheart neckline, lace bodice, and flared sheer skirt. Best yet, if white isn't really your color of choice, it also comes in black and red.

What do you think of the white lace look? Would you rock it for Prom? Leave us a comment below!

Wearing the color white is usually reserved for the summer months, but this year it's been given new life, with celebs and fashionistas wearing the color well through the winter! Taylor Swift has been seen wearing the color at a handful of red carpet events, with her rocking the color most recently at the Grammy Awards.

While it's not the most practical of colors, we love white because it brings elegance to any outfit. When it comes to wearing it, don't try to match shades - embrace the subtleties that comes with wearing pure white vs. ivory vs. cream, and don't be afraid to match different textures and fabrics. Don't wear white tights with the outfit, otherwise you risk starting to look like a ghost! Most importantly, any questions alluding to Labor Day are best simply ignored - they clearly just aren't a fashionista! Wear the color with confidence and pride.

If you have a formal party to attend soon, it's definitely a great color choice to feel part of the Winter Wonderland with all the snow that's been falling lately! Or, if you want to wait to rock it at prom, the color has clearly become an on-trend choice to wear year round. Our favorite white dresses are below - check them out!

When it comes to the classic evening gown, we love La Femme style 18631. It's a sheath gown with a v-neck fully embellished bodice flowing into a chiffon skirt. The back has thick embellished straps that form an X in the middle, and dips to a low open back.

Tony Bowls TS11368 is perfect if you're looking for a short prom dress or cocktail dress for a Winter Formal. It's a strapless dress with a sweetheart neckline, silver studded bodice, and a gathered illusion skirt.

For the ball gown look, check out Tiffany Designs style 16901. It's a strapless sweetheart ball gown with an iridescent stacked sequin bodice, a chunky A.B. rhinestone belt, and a full tulle ball gown skirt. It's a true princess gown!

The 55th Annual Grammy Awards were held at the Staples Center on Sunday, February 10th, and the show was amazing! All of the acts were great, but we were so blown away by Taylor Swift's ode to Alice in Wonderland opening number. Of course, our eyes were glued to the red carpet, though, watching all of the ladies' fashionable outfits! Check out our favorite four looks below:

We loved Carrie Underwood's black embellished mermaid gown. It was such a classy look, and so perfect for prom! Our favorite number to get a similar look is Night Moves style 6652. It's a sexy, mermaid shaped gown with a strapless, sheer bodice. Crystal and beaded lace appliques accent the gown throughout that give it a similar embellished look to Carrie's gown.

Alicia Keys rocked the cut-out look in such a classy way! Especially after Grammy attenders were told that their outfits must be more modest this year, Alicia still looked sexy and showed some skin in style. For a similar look, we love Dave & Johnny style 8723. It's a long black matte jersey dress with side cut outs and a beaded bust and straps.

Green has been a very popular color this year ever since Pantone announced that Emerald Green is the 2013 Color of the Year. So, even though it wasn't the official Emerald Green, we loved that Katy Perry rocked a sexy mint green gown at the Grammy's. To get a similar look, check out Flirt style PF4150. Elegance and glamour definitely steal the show in this sexy ball gown that features beautiful cascading jewels. It has a caught-up skirt with a high front slit and corset back closure that adds to the drama.

Beyonce Knowles stole the red carpet rocking a black and white jumpsuit, rather than the usual gown. She looked absolutely stunning and classic, as it hugged every curve of her body. Jumpsuits are definitely going to be one of the new trends this prom season, so we were amazed to see Beyonce rocking the look! One of our favorite prom jumpsuits that remind us of Beyonce's is Claudine for Alyce style 2232. We love it because while you can be different by rocking a jumpsuit, you can still get the classic gown look with the long overskirt that comes with it.

All of the stars were out last night on Jan. 9th for the 2013 People’s Choice Awards at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, and we loved seeing them arrive on the red carpet! While everyone at Rissy Roo's unanimously agreed that Ian Somerhalder was our fave celebrity that walked the red carpet, we were of course also amazed at how beautiful all the ladies looked! Check out our four favorite best dressed celebrities below, and let us know who YOU think looked the best last night!

Glee star Lea Michele always has a great fashion sense, both on and off the TV screen. We loved the cute "Little Pink Dress" that she wore to the People's Choice Awards - what a great way to stand out in the crowd! And if that wasn't enough, she walked away with the PCA for comedic TV actress for her work on Glee! Continue reading →

It's the New Year, and that means it's time for a New You! Since many of the Rissy Roo's staff made resolutions to work out more and eat healther in the New Year, we decided to make a special post today dedicated to getting fit in 2013! For some inspiration, we picked a celebrity that has always been known for being in great shape - Jessica Biel. So, if you ever need a little motivational push, just look up pics of Jessica and remind yourself to keep working hard!

Jessica Biel is well-known for being one of the fittest female celebrities in Hollywood. She knows how to get in tip top shape from head to toe without being too muscular. She does a ton of weight training, plyometric training, circuit training, and cardio!

If you want to have a strong and lean physique like Jessica Biel, follow these workout instructions below. But don't forget...consistently eating healthy and staying dedicated plays a huge part!

The Warm-up: Walking Lunges

Jessica warms up with walking lunges to get the larger leg and glute muscles stretched out. Do three to four sets of 8 – 12 repetitions per leg as shown in the video below.

Cardio + Cardio Interval Training

6 sprints with about 1 minute of rest between each sprint = Two sets of 200-meter sprints, then two sets of 150-meter sprints, and finally two sets of 100-meter sprints.

Plyometric Training

1. Stair Jumping - All you need for this one is a set of stairs. If stairs are not available, you can use any type of raised platform.

Instructions: Standing at the bottom of stairs, feet beside each other, jump up to the second step by skipping the first stair, and keep going along this pattern of skipping a stair each jump. Eventually, as your strength and skill increase, you can add the amount of stairs you jump over, going to 2 or 3 stairs skipped for each jump.

2. Jumping Squats - A plyometric jumping squat is pretty much a standing jump that begins and ends in a squat position.

Instructions: Starting in a squat position, use a burst of power to leap straight up into the air, then land back into a squat position. Do 2 – 3 sets of 12 repetitions.

Weight Training

1. Waist Exercise - You will need a five-pound medicine ball for this exercise.

Instructions: Sitting down and leaning back slightly with legs raised off the floor, twist from left to right reaching for each side 15 times, and do a total of three sets. The video below shows a really good example.

2. Biceps and Shoulders Exercise - For this exercise you'll need two ten-pound dumbbells.

Instructions: Stand with knees slightly bent. Hold 10-pound dumbbells in each hand. Do a bicep curl and then rotate your hands so your palms face outward, and do a dumbbell press by raising the weights above your head. Then reverse the move until you’re back to the starting position. Complete three sets of 10 to 12 reps.
