There’s nothing we love better than trawling through paparazzi pictures here at Shiny Style, and today was no exception – we had a good hard look to see which mahoosive stars were out partying and looking glam across the pond yesterday.

Some of New York’s finest were out in full force yesterday for a  ”Green Auction” benefit at Christie’s in NYC – actress and style icon Diane Kruger tripped in on the arm of fashion designer Jason Wu in a gloriously old-fashioned little black dress with a white silk petticoat, demure high heels and a fishtail plait, while editor-at-large of American Vogue, Anna Wintour, was her normal scary fashion self in a leather and floral midi-dress which showed off her tiny frame.

Nicki Minaj turned up looking crazy and amazing as normal in a microscopically tiny leather playsuit with a green beehive – we love. Also there was The City star Olivia Palermo, who looked impeccable in a lace-effect blouse and a digital-printed pleated skirt – if you want to know how to combine prints without making it look like a crazy mess, she’s the girl to look to.

At a launch event in Nevada, Pamela Anderson was out with her mandem in a floor-length white number and absolutely enormous hair.

Meanwhile our favourite stars of the silver screen were spotted enjoying some down-time in their neighbourhoods – prodigal actress Emma Roberts was seen out and about in Los Angeles looking cute and on-trend in a camel fedora hat and skinny jeans, teamed with demure little ballet flats. We wish we looked this good on our day off. Back in the Big Apple, actress Naomi Watts was spotted nonchalantly sporting classic Ray-Ban sunglasses and a khaki parka while she was out about about.

Whitney's perfected Beverley Hills laidback cool in this slouchy denim shirt and hotpants combo - who said that double denim doesn't work?

As the weather slowly brightens up in the UK (we can go out without wearing thermal vests under our outfits! There’s blossom on the trees!) we can start to look forward to what will hopefully be a long, glorious and fashionable spring/summer. Us Brits are good to take tips from during the winter months, but for fashion inspiration it’s better to look across the pond to where the stars dress for gloriously sunny weather almost all year round. You don’t need to look much further than The City TV-star Whitney Port.

More friendly and accessible than Olivia Palermo, more fashion-savvy than Lauren Conrad, she’s the perfect ambassador for laidback summer dressing. We’re particular fans of her off-duty style that she’s papped out and about in; slouchy denim shirts, hotpants and flip-flops and sunnies. And in true It-girl style, she’s never without an absolutely killer bag. Check out our gallery to see our favourite recent Whitney moments.

Erin Lucas not returning for second series of The City

By Kimberley Foster on July 13th, 2009

erinlucas_thecity.jpgFans of The City may be surprised to learn that one of the show’s cast is already pulling out. Erin Lucas has confirmed that she will not be returning for the second season.

“I decided to do something different,” she told NY Mag. “I have a project in the mix, but I want to get into more hosting. That’s really what I love. It was just hard. It was a chapter in my life and it was nothing but positive. I’m glad I did it, but on to the next thing”.

She also admitted that she hadn’t spoken to Whitney Port for months.

“We were [close], but things change,” she said. “There was a falling out”.

Oh dear! Erin also said that there were no hard feelings, and if she ever saw Whitney again she would give her a big hug.

At the end of last season, The City also lost Jay after Whitney decided to break up with him to focus on her career and being a single gal about town. At this rate, there won’t be anyone left.

By Kimberley Foster on June 30th, 2009

Andre Leon Talley once said that she should be a model, and ended up recruiting her for a national TV spot. Although it resulted in her falling on her backside in front of millions of morning show viewers, Whitney Port certainly has what it takes to step onto the runway.

Elle to claim supporting role in ‘The City’

By Kimberley Foster on May 26th, 2009

Elle magazine has picked itself up and dusted itself off after Stylista was cancelled on the CW network. Instead, it will feature in MTV’s The City, after the show’s resident ice queen, Olivia Palermo, scored a job in the publicity department of the magazine. Sources say that shooting of season two is already under way, with cameras entering the Elle offices this week. I wonder, will this television venture will be more successful?

Another season of Whitney Port’s ‘The City’ headed our way

By Andrea Kiliany Thatcher on January 29th, 2009

Whitney Port’s The Hills spinoff series The City has been given the green light for a follow-up season.

This is obviously good news for fans of Port and her ‘social’ (not socialite, darling) pal Olivia Palermo who are based in New York. It’s also good news for Diane von Furstenberg, where Port now works who will no doubt score more screen time thanks to MTV.

I wonder what Lauren Conrad and co. think…

Whitney Port tells you what she wears each week on The City

By Andrea Kiliany Thatcher on January 14th, 2009

Whitney Port fashion recap.jpg

Wonder what Whitney Port is wearing in the latest episode of The City? Well since you’re such good friends and all she’ll tell you! Just go to her personal Web site this week and find out who made that dress or jacket (hint: It’s Diane von Furstenberg).

Her shoe collection is the most lust-worthy, and we’re guessing she couldn’t afford to keep it up even with her MTV money, so this whole wardrobe breakdown must be a way to give extra publicity to the brands who give her clothes.

YouTube Watch: Whitney Port talks The City for TeenVogue

By Andrea Kiliany Thatcher on January 5th, 2009

In case you DVR’d Gossip Girl and weren’t inundated with commercials for Whitney Port’s new show, The City, here’s a little sneaky peak. Whitney talks to Teen Vogue about the show and how she’s liking living in New York City.

The New York Times yesterday skewered the show, and the whole Hills franchise, hilariously. Nonetheless we’re expecting it to be popular in the same way that the Hills is – earnestly with teens and ironically with fashion peeps and pop culture fiends.
