Mila Kunis thinks she’s “not good” at being sexy

By emilyborrett on August 22nd, 2011

The sultry Friends With Benefits actress Mila Kunis thinks she’s “not good” at being sexy. Really?

Mila, who has admitted to not understanding her new sex-symbol status, however puts as much effort as possible into her sex scenes because she hates unconvincing performances.

She said: “I’m not good at sexy. But there are so many women on the big screen who are so false you just don’t buy it. There’s nothing about them that you believe. It feels so put on. You can feel them mugging for the camera. It’s like their face is raping me, so I know I don’t want to do that.”

I think any bloke who’s seen her girlie scene with Natalie Portman in Black Swan would beg to differ about her apparent lack of sexiness.  Still, it’s nice to see a star who’s a little more down to earth, no? We’re looking forward to the new movie.

ShinyStyle loves: Spring nudes

Asos Premium Flower Detail Hat

If you want to rock nude the romantic way, this turban-style floral hat will look incredible worn with head-to-toe neutrals. You can find it at Asos.

It’s been no secret for a while now that in fashion, nude tones are hot, hot, hot. Ever since pale peaches, beiges and neutral greys have become en vogue they’ve been absolutely everywhere, from buttery leather totes at Mulberry to refreshingly pretty and feminine blazers at your local Topshop. With the emergence of red-hot colour being the next explosive trend on the catwalk, as seen at Jil Sander and House of Holland, you might be mistaken to think that nude is on it’s way out – but au contraire, it’s not. With the dazzling success of December’s “Black Swan”, starring Natalie Portman, ballet-beautiful fashion is more in than ever.

Wondering how to carry these colours into your spring/summer wardrobe as the year continues? Make like Stella McCartney, who boldly opted for pale pink and peach skinny trouser suits in her S/S 2011 collection, and choose jackets and slim-fitting chinos in nude tones for a look that is feminine, yet manages to be fashion forward. When it comes to eveningwear, anything goes – romance is the word for the whole season and you can opt for as many ruffles, embellishments and pleats as you like.

Get the look: Pixie Lott’s ballerina style shoes

By Andrea Petrou on March 25th, 2010

We love Pixie Lott’s sassy and kooky fashion sense, which unlike Lady Gaga’s style can be worn almost everyday.

One example of this are these gorgeous Aruna Seth black flats the singer was spotted wearing to the Ivy this week.

We heart the peep toe style, which givse a summer twist to traditional ballet pumps, and the crystal butterfly.

Copy Pixie’s style and team up with shorts, tights and a blazer. Or wear with jeans for a spring daytime look.

However, a word of warning: Star style doesn’t come cheap as these shoes cost £365.

We think it may be time we sent our bank manager and credit card company some flowers….

Kate Moss to star in a ballet

By Andrea Petrou on March 1st, 2010

It seems today is a hot day for model announcements and this time it’s Kate Moss’s turn to be in the limelight.

The supermodel has apparently been signed up to star alongside Sex and the City star, Mikhail Baryshnikov in a ballet, rumoured to be named Baryshnimoss.

The ballet will be shown at a fund-raising event and then as a gallery installation. However, it’s not going to be an easy move from heels to points for Kate.

A source told the Daily Mail: “Kate has to be fit, healthy and looking good, so her late nights and heavy partying have to be reduced.

“I know that she is very happy to do that and has talked about wanting to get fit and healthy herself. It will be a movie made for them so she doesn’t have to be a prima ballerina, even though she is having classes.”
