Add Pops of Color This Self-Portrait dress has a sweet simplicity but Johanna’s basic pumps and gym-ready pony bring the look down a notch. Abigail’s sea foam earrings draw the eye up for a statuesque look and echo the stones in her rings. Style a Playful Spin on the LBD Genius, Greta! We love how your sideswept locks create a vertical line that balances the sexy cutout and up-to-there slit on this Jonathan Simkhai statement maker. Way to say it as you play it!

“I spoke a bit to Taylor [Swift]…. She said she thought I was cool and I kind of blushed a bit.”— ZAYN MALIK, revealing the most famous fan of his new album “We really enjoy Walmart, Target, going to the grocery store. He loves to take the dogs to the car wash.”— GABRIELLE UNION on life with Dwyane Wade, her hubby of almost two years “Sometimes we don’t get to control the endings of the chapters in our life.”— YOLANDA HADID, announcing her exit from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills “She often, right before a take, would turn to me and ask if I liked having sex with kangaroos.”— LIAM HEMSWORTH on his Hunger Games co-star Jennifer Lawrence “I barely own any clothes!

Suri could have easily turned out spoiled — she has been hobnobbing with Disney princesses and flying in private jets since she was 2. But Katie now brags that her 10-year-old is “generous” and “sensitive.” Insiders say Katie’s influence played a huge part in that. From visiting sick children in the hospital on Christmas to spending time with cousins in Katie’s home state of Ohio, Suri has been given the gift of a normal life despite her A-list heritage. “I didn’t know how much love I had in me. It’s overwhelming,” gushes Katie. “Every day I discover more about this spectacular human being I get to be the mother of.”…

When Blake Shelton took the stage at his CMA Music Festival concert in Nashville, Tenn., on June 11, he looked less than thrilled. The normally chatty performer “didn’t seem to be enjoying himself,” says a concertgoer. “It was like he was just playing a part. And there was no mention of Gwen Stefani.” It’s a subject he seems to be avoiding. Since the country superstar, 40, and Gwen, 46, started dating in October, they’ve been nearly inseparable. But in the past few weeks, the couple have been noticeably apart. Now an insider exclusively tells Life & Style that pals are worried about the state of their union — and fear that the duo’s planned summer wedding is off. “They are out of the honeymoon phase,” says the insider. “They’re just…

Former Bachelorette star Ali Fedotowsky isn’t having an easy pregnancy, but it would be a whole lot worse if not for attentive fiancé Kevin Manno. “I’m on modified bed rest,” Ali, 31, who is due to welcome a baby girl on July 13, told Life & Style at the June 12 Children Mending Hearts “Empathy Rocks” fundraiser. “I can’t be doing dishes or laundry or much of anything.” Kevin, 32, “puts my shoes on when we leave the house because I can’t bend down,” she shares. “He’ll do anything I need. He’s like, ‘Let me give you a massage.’ I’m like, ‘No, I’m fine.’ He’s like, ‘No, let me — I want to make you feel better.’” Fiancé of the year!…

ONLY THE BEST CONCERT SEAT WILL DO When Beyoncé tours, her concerts are the hottest ticket in every town she visits — scalpers even get $1K or more for a seat. But Joe didn’t have to scramble for tix to her Toronto show. In May, he was treated to the ultimate VIP experience by viewing the performance from backstage! EATING WITH A-LISTERS Craig’s restaurant in LA features a nightly who’s who of Hollywood. (Jennifer Lawrence, George Clooney and Adele are just a few regulars.) So it’s no surprise Joe and Nick are often among the diners, snacking on delicacies like the hot spot’s famed $18 chocolate pizza. GLAMOROUS FRIENDS’ GETAWAYS Stay in a hotel? As if.

Too Loose is a Loss Forget zombies — Mercedes Mason of Fear the Walking Dead should have feared that blousy sweater! While her lean black pants are always a look-slimmer winner with a cape, the droopy knit is not flattering. A Sloppy Tee Shouldn’t Be We know Maria Menounos has a teeny waist, but she sure is working hard to hide it. With bulky shoulder pads, her slouchy T-shirt makes her look big all over. At least the low vamp on her ballet flats makes her legs look longer! All Choked Up Coco Rocha, we love the way your slim choker echoes the stripes in your collar. But by cutting you in two at an odd place, it ends up shortening your frame. Those high-heel sandals that make you look…

1 Start with an even base. Skin around the eyes can appear ruddy because it’s so thin, says Fairweather, who recommends canceling out any discoloration with concealer one shade lighter than your natural skin tone. “It also doubles as primer,” she adds, which helps hold the shadow. 2 Add color to lids. “Apply a shadow one or two shades darker than your complexion to eyelids, stopping at the crease below the brow bone,” suggests Fairweather. “Doing so gives eyes added depth and enhances the sultry, smoky finish while amping up the glam factor.” 3 Smoke out the lash line. Starting at the inner corners of eyes, trace a shadow along the bottom line for Kim’s look or the top for Gwen’s. “Color should be thinnest near the tear ducts and…

Right from her start on the daytime soap Days of Our Lives at age 16, Alison Sweeney struggled with her weight. “Being surrounded by such thin, gorgeous actresses made me so insecure,” she recalls. But by the time Ali, now 39, became host of The Biggest Loser in 2007, the 5-foot-4 blonde had dropped a whopping 30 pounds and was becoming a go-to guru on how to lose weight and keep it off. “I learned it’s all about eating natural, simple, whole foods with adequate nutrients and vitamins to see me through the day,” she tells Life & Style. INTO THE BLUE A whole food that Alison swears by is a daily helping of antioxidant-packed blueberries, which scientists say have turbocharging weight-loss powers — from zooming metabolism to optimizing digestion.…

Well, that didn’t take long. An insider tells Life & Style that after “a long talk and many tears,” Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik are back together less than a month after his commitment issues drove them to split up. Gigi, who stood by Zayn after he canceled a recent London show and blamed anxiety, is “a huge supporter of his, and he has decided he truly needs her at this time in his life,” the insider says. “He begged her to come back.” Though Gigi, 21, was reluctant at first, and worried that Zayn would break her heart again, the “Pillow Talk” singer, 23, finally persuaded her. Says the insider: “They’ve decided to give their relationship a second chance.”…

When most people drunk-dial, they call an ex. But when you’re Kris Jenner, 60, inebriated phone behavior is an entirely different ballgame. “Kris will get drunk, sit in front of a mirror, pore over her every flaw and then start calling up the plastic surgeons she knows ” an insider reveals. “Then she’ll try to book an appointment — even if it’s 11 p.m.!” Her friends and family think she’s gone overboard with her habit. “Her face now looks like a wax figure ” the insider says. “Even her grandkids are shocked. Kris refuses to age gracefully, and she’s had so much work done that there’s now no way that she can ”…

Nashville is moving from ABC to CMT, but star Hayden Panettiere, who’s in treatment for postpartum depression, won’t necessarily be moving with it. “The show’s executives realize that there is a lot going on in Hayden’s personal life ” an insider says of the actress, 26, who has struggled with depression since welcoming daughter Kaya in December 2014. “The most important thing is Hayden’s health, and producers want her to focus on that. There is talk that the role will be cut out or significantly scaled back ” CMT even has a plan in the works to make up for Hayden’s absence. “The network is talking about bringing in a young, hot country star in place of Hayden ” the insider says, “to get the show back to its country…

What’s going on with Chelsea Handler lately? Lots of drama at her new Netflix talk show, Chelsea. “The show is already falling to pieces,” reveals an insider, who notes that showrunner and executive producer Bill Wolff left just three weeks after the series’ May 11 premiere. “He couldn’t take Chelsea’s craziness anymore,” the insider says. “People were stunned he’d leave so quickly, but Chelsea has been impossible to work with. She’s always been opinionated and bossy, but it just keeps getting worse.” The reception to the 41-year-old’s show has been ugly, too. “Chelsea was furious when she got a one-star rating from Netflix viewers,” the insider says, “and she freaked out and went into a paranoid rage and wanted to fire everyone.” Netflix has committed to 90 episodes, but can…

“I don’t shy away from risks.” — Katie Katie Holmes was the spitting image of Jackie Kennedy. Playing the poised former first lady (and fashion icon) in the upcoming The Kennedys: After Camelot miniseries, the actress wore a stylish white sheath and her hair was perfectly coiffed on June 13 in Toronto. But Katie truly sparkled when interacting with her young co-stars on the set, even using a pair of pretzels as eyeglasses to solicit smiles. It was a glimpse at the kind of fun mom the star is to her 10-year-old daughter, Suri. But Katie, 37, can also be fiercely protective, and friends say ex-husband Tom Cruise, 53, is about to find that out firsthand. Hidden in the couple’s 50-page divorce papers is a clause stating that Katie has…

“I need to move on.” — Khloé When Lamar Odom nearly died from a drug overdose in a Nevada brothel last October, Khloé Kardashian raced to his bedside and immediately halted their almost-finalized divorce. But now she’s over being his wife — for a second time. “I need this marriage to end because it’s depressing,” Khloé, 31, told big sis Kim on the June 12 episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. “I will be filing for divorce very soon.” In fact, attorney Laura Wasser submitted the paperwork on Khloé’s behalf on May 26. But that’s not all she’s doing to distance herself. Life & Style has exclusively learned that on June 6, Khloé kicked her estranged husband out of the Calabasas, Calif., home she’s been renting for him, convinced…

He Loves Hunting, She’s an Animal-Rights Activist Gwen adores animals and is mostly vegan, while Blake calls “bowhunting white-tailed deer” his “favorite thing.” He’s a Country Boy, She’s a City Girl Blake recently bought a rustic second home in Oklahoma (top left), but she’s happy in her posh 9,000-square-foot Beverly Hills estate.

Blake, on the other hand, has just one boy in his life: BFF Adam Levine!…

MARC ANTHONY The singer had a tour stop in Cancun, Mexico, but rather than leave his wife, Shannon De Lima, home alone, he brought her along for a super-romantic vacation. The duo checked into the presidential suite at the Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort and later took a dip near the property’s white-sand beach. GRADE: A ADAM LEVINE Adam thinks his wife, Behati Prinsloo, is hotter than ever now that she’s pregnant, and he let the world know it. “Yowza,” he captioned an Instagram of a topless, baby bump–baring Behati. Extra points for the two fire emojis he tossed in for good measure. GRADE: B- TIM MCGRAW As he accepted the Video of the Year trophy at the 2016 CMT Music Awards, Tim remembered to thank a laundry list…

The Celebrity Stylist Says “Hollywood’s hottest are coming out in droves wearing jean shorts with frayed and deconstructed elements,” says Brad Goreski, who styles actresses Rashida Jones and Lea Michele, plus serves as creative director for QVC’s C. Wonder collection. “The shorts add a bit of edge to a swim look, taking the basic summer sexy-meetscazh vibe up a notch.” And since there is so much variety in terms of cut-and-wash options, it’s simple to find a pair that complements any style and body type. What he suggests: Wear high-waisted shortie shorts (like Bella and Ellie) to make legs look longer and leaner. And shorter gals (like Kourt) can visually stretch and slim the torso with low-rise boyfriend jean shorts. The Designer Says “Americana, heritage and vintage are big right…

Sayonara, boring black and drab gray sports bras. Make way for a new colorful support system that is anything but basic. Unlike muted colors, which are purposefully hidden under oversize tees, bright bras are meant to be shown off, explains Jené Luciani, Today show style expert and author of The Bra Book. “It’s a huge trend right now in athleisure wear.” The trick is to layer a muscle tank, with low-cut arm holes, on top — that way, the flashy bra peeks out from the sides. The look screams, “Hey, witness my fitness … and my totally cute gym outfit!” A-cup Anything Goes “Any compression sports bra is great for keeping the gals contained when there isn’t a whole lot to hold in,” says Luciani. So the world is your…

BEFORE OR AFTER APPARENT CHIN WORK? Olivia Munn Has the X-Men: Apocalypse star been upgrading her profile? Oslo, Norway–based dermatologist Dr. Miray Al Mustafa thinks so, suggesting on Instagram that the actress, 35, has had her naturally square jawline narrowed with Botox injections to create a softer, more feminine silhouette. We notice a slightly more almond shape to her face, but guys we polled were ambivalent. Seems a stunner is a stunner no matter the shape of her jaw!…

Stiff, dated ’dos that require a 20-minute YouTube tutorial? Power down, ladies. Instead, take cues from Hollywood’s hottest who are walking the red carpet donning this ultra-hip retro male style. The key to keeping it fierce and feminine: the tousle. Matt Fugate, hairstylist at Serge Normant at John Frieda salon, who created Blindspot star Jaimie Alexander’s look, calls this imperfect finish a “battle-like look,” adding, “[It has] a very ‘Warrior Helen of Troy’ [vibe].” To get the sexy swoop right, Fugate rolls the top portion of hair to the center of the head, pins the base in place and blasts with anti-humidity hairspray to keep it from falling flat.…

Brandi Glanville’s nine-year marriage to Eddie Cibrian ended in 2010 after he cheated on her with LeAnn Rimes, and now Brandi promises she’ll never be anyone’s missus again. “It’s not happening,” the star of E!’s new relationship rehab show Famously Single tells Life & Style in an exclusive interview. “I don’t really believe in it anymore. No more kids or marriages. I want to be financially stable on my own without a man.” Brandi, 43, goes out on dates, but she doesn’t currently have a boyfriend and is basking in a drama-free single life. “I just want to be with my girlfriends and I don’t want to have that pit in my stomach wondering, Why isn’t he getting back to me?” she says. “Why put myself through that? I already…

Khloé threw Lamar out — but brother-in-law Kanye West is inviting him in! “Kanye wants Lamar to move into his and Kim’s Bel Air mansion,” says an insider of the rapper, 39, whose music reportedly brought Lamar back to life. “He has a plan to get Lamar on the road to recovery without rehab, and Lamar is completely on board.” Understandably, Khloé is livid. But Kanye’s wife isn’t siding with her sis. “Kim has no beef with Lamar,” notes the insider, “and thinks it will get controlling Kanye off her back for a while!”…

“Definitely! I don’t know how many.” — Beyoncé on wanting more kids It was the kind of thing honeymooners do. Holding hands, Jay Z and his wife, Beyoncé, went on a private boat cruise around NYC on June 13, soaking up the sun and checking out the sights. For a couple whose marital problems have become public knowledge — thanks in part to her emotional hit album Lemonade — it was a surprisingly romantic outing. “They both want to put their troubles behind them,” says an insider. “They definitely want to focus on making their marriage work.” And they’re taking a giant step. Life & Style has exclusively learned that the couple have started doing in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments in order to have baby No. 2. “They’ve had their…

Bradley Cooper has spent the past decade parading around a seemingly endless stream of arm candy, but his latest love, Russian supermodel Irina Shayk, is here to stay. After a year of dating, “Bradley and Irina have been talking about marriage, and he’s told pals he’s thinking of proposing later this summer,” an insider tells Life & Style. “Bradley has invited Irina’s mom, Olga, to New York so he can ask her for her daughter’s hand in marriage before popping the question.” Bradley, 41, and Irina, 30, are eyeing a 2017 wedding in Malibu, the insider says, and “They’ve even joked they could have a joint wedding and birthday celebration in January, since their birthdays are just a day apart.” Why the rush? “He and Irina have already spoken about…

Cat-astrophic Clash Actress Mamie Gummer’s fierce fashion fail is easy to spot: Her knotted tee went from edgy to eek when she paired it with a flowy leopard-print maxi. Diva in Disguise Umm, Fergie, is that you? The singer looks more Guns N’ Roses than Black Eyed Peas. This look would be less forced without the hat and flannel. Laundry Day? A rocker tee with leggings? Ashley Benson’s combo is way too cazh to be chic. It looks like she’s running errands while her real clothes go through the wash. Model Behavior Alessandra Ambrosio strikes all the right chords! A music tee plus denim and canvas sneaks equals effortless cool, but she gives her look a girlish kick by choosing a mini over jeans. And that frayed hem? Way to…

Not content with the old-school upward tick, stars found a new way to rock the wing that gives peepers more pop. The fresh take on the antique technique is all about incorporating shadow for a sexy, smoky cat-eye hybrid. Kim Kardashian and Gwen Stefani both nailed the look, each managing to put their own individual spin on the trend. Kim, whose thick kohl eyeliner is reminiscent of Cleopatra’s, upped the ante by not only using a sultry shadow to add weight to the wing, but she lined the bottom lash line instead of the top. “The placement of the 45-degree angle creates an instant face-lift because it follows the line of her chiseled cheekbones and draws the eye up,” celebrity makeup artist Andrea Fairweather, who has worked with Miley Cyrus…

My biggest shoe splurge was... $6,000 on a pair of Chanel boots. I saw Rihanna wear them and fell in love, and then went on a mission to find them. But the most I ever spent on an accessory was for... my Presidential Rolex watch. My most decadent meal was... my birthday dinner at an old French restaurant in New Orleans. We bought a magnum of Opus One wine from 1981 — the year I was born — and it was $4,000! The oldest thing in my closet is... my high school letterman sweater. My most luxe getaway was to... Bora Bora for Dating Naked. I spent six weeks in my own private bungalow; it was amazing. I sailed around to remote beaches and would spend my days off swimming…
