So what ha-happened was I was just about to go to sleep and then this giant cupcake arrived at my apartment so obviously I ate it and now I’m on this sugar high and it’s 2:30 AM and I can’t stop typing and somehow I came across this video of David Beckham going incognito and selling his own perfume on Ellen DeGeneres’ show so yeah duh of course I had to share:

Also proof that even in nerdy glasses and a baseball cap women just can’t stay away. It goes against nature. Anyway, I’m going to go do some cartwheels now.

This has nothing to do with anything except an excuse to have another post with Bradley Cooper. Did you KNOW he speaks fluent French?? Oh, mon coeur!

Have no idea what you’re saying, but keep talking. Seriously, didn’t think he could get any hotter. That is all.

If you guys haven’t heard yet, Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Michael Roizen are coming out with a new science-based beauty website, YouBeauty.com. It launches this summer, but you should sign up for their emails now because they’re already delivering most fascinating beauty tidbits!

Take today’s for example — apparently women can sniff out an attractive man (literally): “Austrian researchers gave women sweat-soaked shirts worn by men and asked them to rate which one smelled best. Amazingly, the women in the most fertile phase of their cycles picked the duds worn by the most attractive and symmetrical men. Why? Because we instinctively want to pass on good genes to our kids. Sweat, it seems, is one of the many ways we unconsciously know that he’s ‘the one.’”

You all know by now I’m a stickler for (awesome) smells. Well, Axe just sent me their newest line, Excite, and I’m having a hard time stopping myself from misting the body spray all over my apartment because it smells.so.GOOD. Even my girl friends who were sitting around while I was recklessly misting the living room with it were getting up from their seats to get a closer sniff, “WOW that smells good.” It’s a blend of coconut, caramel, and hazelnut but to me it just smells like MAN. Ok fine, maybe a really hot man. I like that it has a masculine woody smell, but still fresh so it’s not overpowering (yes, guys CAN actually go overboard with the cologne, and that’s not good either).

Since I have no one to give this to (sorry male friends…I feel like it would just be awkward for you to smell this amazing) my living room will continue to smell like Axe. Good news is Axe is partnering up with BATF to give three of you a chance to get your hands on a dopp kit of Excite’s 24 Hour deodorant, anti-perspirant, revitalizing shower gel, and deodorant body spray by entering today’s giveaway!

James Franco tweeted a picture of him getting spruced up. Not that he really needs to be.

More on this soon, but can we just take ONE moment to talk about how freakin awesome Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough of Proenza Schouler are? I was super impressed that designers of their calibre took time out of their insane Fashion Week schedule to talk to a room full of bloggers about the relationship between their brand and media.

They are the most down-to-earth, nicest guys and stayed back to talk to a few of us (and of course I asked them about their favorite restaurants in NYC, to come). I don’t know if their small entourage of people were friends or colleagues but they were just as laidback and sweet. And can we also talk about how Jack is looking straight at me right here with his piercing blue eyes? That’s all I’m really writing this post for.

PS, I abhore these pics of me, but I’ll still post it because…they’re are just…so…beautiful.

I’m uploading the videos of their talk right now, so check back soon! Any other Proenza fans out there who understand my excitement here?
