Maria of Beauty Is Within stopped by Style IT to share her tv addiction secret. We appreciate her honestly, because after all who doesn’t have a few reality show guilty pleasures?
As much as I say that people watch too much reality TV and get caught up in celebrities‘ lives, I will make a confession that only 2 or 3 people in my life know…I watch reality TV shows and yes, I sometimes get vested into the lives of these people whose lives are full of drama. There, I said it!
Drama is something I stay away from in my life. In fact, I’ll probably be the most laid-back, non-diva person you’ll meet. However, I sometimes take pleasure in getting a glimpse into other people’s drama-filled lives. Watching these shows is a gentle reminder that people we think “have it all” actually really don’t.
I often take a peek here at StyleIT to read Sarah’s funny antics about The Hills or America’s Next Top Model. As for me, well, I sometimes live vicariously through The Girls Next Door…Who wouldn’t want to have a hot body and party all the time? Then I weep for the girls who get booted off The Bachelor knowing full well most of them go on the show just to get on TV and become an “actress”. However, the two shows that I really got into - even so far as watching reruns - are Keeping Up With the Kardashians (I, like, can’t believe, like, those girls like saying “like” all the time…like) and Real Housewives of Orange County/New York City.
I’m still trying to figure out why I like these shows. Do you know why you watch certain shows?

If you haven’t been living under a fashion rock, then by now you’ve heard about the latest exhibit in the Met’s Costume Institute. Entitled Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy, the exhibit officially opens Wednesday, May 7th but the annual Costume Institute Gala held tonight brought out celebrities, socialites, designers and fashion editors alike. While we didn’t select photos of everyone in attendance, we chose our favorites. We’re not going to spout our opinions of the outfits because after all, fashion is subjective. The real question is: Do they look like superheroes or super zeroes?
Follow the cut for our fashionable feast. Anna Wintour demands it.
StyleITOnline.com TV is proud to bring you another great fashion video. This week’s video is the Five O’Clock Heroes featuring Agyness Deyn for the song “Who”. Enjoy!
While browsing the cosmetics department today at Duane Reade, we stopped dead in our tracks. In the a new collection display from L’Oreal sat the most perfect nail polish color we could imagine. We’d dreamed of it before…a pinky/salmon creation…but we never thought we would find it. L’Oreal bottled our dream, and named it 412 Salmon Sarong.
We first dreamed up this color after our obsession with all things grew from the Smashbox Masters Class Vol 2 set we purchased on impulse. While browsing the plants for sale in Union Square on weekend, we stumbled upon the color in a flower, the nasturium. The edible and fragrant flower currently sits on our backyard steps soaking up the Brooklyn sun.
Once we made it home, we stripped off our current color (Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Extreme Wear in 13 Purple Potion). Forgive the bad application in the photo, but we were too eager to share the miracle that is Salmon Sarong. L’Oreal even offers a coordinating sheer lip gloss (we were too mesmerized by the polish to catch the name) that we managed to leave at the drugstore…for now.
We have to admit we’re miffed about who got eliminated on this week’s ANTM. Whatever Tyra, you don’t want a Top Model, you just want a puppet. Who cares, we’re still Team Whitney. Hey Trendinista, have you seen this yet?
Honestly, this episode of The Hills was pretty much boring. However, the entire cast kept their mouths open like 2 for 1 flytraps at Wal-Mart. There’s a power struggle amongst the cast, all clawing and clamoring for the top money spot next to LC. It’s become pretty obvious in interviews over the past couple of weeks that being in LC’s posse is all about the big bucks. With Stephanie Pratt’s many pathetic faces of guilt, could she be next to rise to the top? Find out, after the jump.

The hoodlums, hood rats and wanna-bes of America’s Next Top Model head to Rome in Episode 10. Touted as the best episode of the season, you know you won’t want to miss another round of trashalicious posing, cat fights and bad model inspired fashion. Hey Trendinista, we’re talking to you!
It has been suggest that Style IT does a round of LOL ANTM (similar to the LOL Hills). We’re hesitant, since Rich @ FourFour pretty much has the market cornered on all things Top Model. Opinions? Tell us in the comments what you want to see!
We’re team Whitney - who is your Cycle 10 Top Model?
