The Vampire Diaries

We are itching for The Vampire Diaries Season 6 premiere to finally hit! While we love summer time, us Roo Girls seriously can't wait for October 2nd to come already. Season 5 of TVD ended so abruptly that waiting months and months and months for the next season to air has been torture...in the most vampiric way possible, of course! Well, the TVD gods have finally shined down on us by giving us some little tid bits to hold us over until Fall comes: a sneak peek of the Season Six promo photo shoot!

The show's stars shared behind-the-scenes videos and pics from the photo shoot on their Instagrams that are so steamy (literally)! The most exciting news? It looks like Damon (Ian Somerhalder) is in some of the photos and videos...so we can only hope that means he's back for Season 6! Check out the Instagram posts below and decide for yourself whether you think he'll be back in action for the next TVD season.

Pretty awesome pictures and videos, right? You can guess what we loved the most (other than seeing the faces of the hot TVD guys, of course), Nina Dobrev's (Elena on The Vampire Diaries) sexy black cut-out dress! The gown looked so perfect on her - we wish we could see the final photo shoot of her in the dress already! If you want her cut-out look for your next formal event, we're all about Nika style 9041! This gown features a strapless sweetheart bodice, illusion straps and back, and side cut outs just like Nina's dress. The gown also features elegant embellished cuff sleeves.

Did these photos and videos get you itching for more TVD already? They sure got us wanting more - we hope you're as excited for The Vampire Diaries Season 6 as we are! Get ready for the Fall and October (and hopefully more Damon)!

Looking glamorous and glowing, Gina Rodriguez wears couture Mac Duggal to the Critics' Choice Television Awards. As soon as she placed her nude bow heels on the red carpet, we couldn't take our eyes off of her and the sparkling one a of kind tea-length gown! The Mac Duggal style 82098D she wore features a sexy plunging neckline along with a bodice encrusted with an assortment of gorgeous sequins and stones. The elegant lace provides vintage elegance, while the bouncy skirt keeps it modern and girly. We love this dress!

Gina, called one of the "top 35 Latinos under 35," and "the next big thing" by The Hollywood Reporter, has been seriously acting in various projects since her breakout role in Filly Brown. Word has it she may be working on an album, and she recently took the main role of Jane Villanueva in the Pilot, "Jane The Virgin." Gina has also joined the cast of the upcoming drama film Sticky Notes. Despite her busy schedule, Ms. Rodriguez did have time to present at this fabulous awards show and she looked better than ever!

Presenting with fellow CW star, Kat Graham of "The Vampire Diaries," Gina completely lights up the stage in her Couture Mac Duggal gown! We have to give credit to Gina's super savvy styling team,  Lauren Rodriguez and Griselle Marilyn Lima of The Society Style Page for picking such a red carpet worthy frock! The perfectly romantic tousled waves along with minimal accessories put all the emphasis on Gina's glowing skin and gown! Perfection! Do you love Gina's look as much as we do?

It's Fall, The Vampire Diaries Season Premiere was last night, and The Originals' had their show premiere earlier this week! We are most definitely back into the Nina Dobrev, Ian Somerhalder, and Paul Wesley spirit!

One thing that we're always loving is Nina's style. Not only does she wear some killer styles on The Vampire Diaries, but she never disappoints off-screen, either. Seventeen Magazine posted a picture of Nina all ready for the Fall months, wearing a leather jacket and purple ombre jeans that we're totally crushing over. She looked so chic, and we just can't get over the ombre look!

We love the ombre trend! It's a look you can pull off year-round, and wear from your day-to-day style to your next formal event. Want to bring Nina's style to Homecoming or Prom? Check out our favorite purple ombre looks below, and click here to shop all ombre dresses.

For a cute short purple ombre look for Homecoming, we love Dave & Johnny style 8725. The dress has spaghetti straps and an exaggerated sweetheart neckline. The jewels and elegant beadwork all throughout the bodice gives the dress such an opulent look.

For a deep to light purple bold look like Nina's jeans, it's all about La Femme style 17004! It's a gorgeous ombre chiffon gown with criss-cross designs across the sweetheart neckline. This simple and elegant dress lets the ombre speak for itself, the same way that Nina let her pants speak for themselves by pairing them with a plain black shirt and jacket.

For a fun and sparkly look, we're obsessed with Jovani style 6432. It's a strapless ball gown with a mirrored sequin bodice and ombre skirt. It's a perfect way to really have a stand-out look!

The September issue of Cosmopolitan Magazine is out, and the Cover Girl is one of our favorite TV stars: Nina Dobrev! She's on the cover wearing a super cute herringbone mini dress and high heels that we simply couldn't get over.

Not only was Cosmo's fashion shoot with Nina amazing, but the interview was, too! Cosmo asked the actress about everything from what she's currently working on, to her career life, to being in relationships. And, with her recent break-up with Ian Somerhalder, it was definitely great to learn a little more about The Vampire Diaries star. One of the questions Cosmo asked Nina was what she's been working on at the moment, and she replied that she'd love to open her own yoga studio. Nina said:

"You know that feeling when you use a different muscle? You're excited to be exercising it but you get a little sore! Yoga changed my life. Hopefully, it will do that for others."

Yoga's definitely a great way to work out and relax your body and mind at the same time...and, of course, make sure you're looking as good as ever in your Homecoming and Prom outfits! So, we were so excited to hear how much Nina loves yoga!

 

As far as relationships go, Nina definitely had a lot to say! When it comes to what she looks for in a guy, she explained that it's all about a guys mind, humor, and talent. When it comes to her type of guy, she also explained:

"I'm progressive in some ways, old-fashioned in others. I like it when guys hold the door open and are sweet and thoughtful. The guys on our show are really good at that. A man in a suit looking put together and dapper is very attractive, but I also kind of like the I-just-rolled-out-of-bed, a-little-bit-of-scruff, effortless, not-trying-hard-but-still-sexy guy. If a guy spends more time looking in the mirror than I do, that's problem!"

We definitely couldn't agree more!

The annual Met Gala was held in New York City on Monday night, April 6th, with this year highlighting the Metropolitan Museum of Art's spring collection, "PUNK: Chaos to Couture." We were so amazed by how many celebrities got into the theme!

It was hard to pick, but two of our favorite looks of the night were worn by Nina Dobrev and Kristen Stewart. We ultimately settled on these two celebs because we loved that they both rocked jumpsuits - it must be a vampire thing! Check out what they wore below and how you can get similar looks for your next formal event. If you want a stand-out look for prom, these rompers are certainly a perfect option!

Nina Dobrev

Nina looked all vamped out in her black lace jumpsuit! We loved how the feminine detailing of the lace and tulle overskirt was offset by the black leather harness - so punk! The Vampire Diaries star looked extra fierce with her dramatic eyeliner and mohawk-inspired hairdo. We're so used to her cute, girly look on The Vampire Diaries (except when she's playing Katherine, of course!), that we were amazed by her high-fashion, dark look.

 One of our jumpsuits for this year, Claudine for Alyce style 2232, immediately reminded us of Nina's look! Just like Nina's jumpsuit, it features beautiful lace and sheer for a chic look, a sweetheart neckline, and a long tulle overskirt. Continue reading →

For those The Vampire Diaries fans out there, this past Thursday's episode was so intense, and fun! Episode 19 of Season 4, called "Pictures of You," was all about the very thing we know all of our Roo Girls are getting ready for right now: Prom! We loved seeing Caroline (Candice Accola), Bonnie (Kat Graham), and Elena (Nina Dobrev) looking beautiful in their prom gowns. And, Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) of course looked as hot as ever in their suits (we may have been drooling over them...)! Continue reading →
