Alyssa Milano’s Evolution: Jersey Shore’s Snooki

Who is this Snooki girl and do we care? Snooki, star of MTV’s reality series Jersey Shore managed to get all our attention and I’m not sure why. Are we all just sucked into the hype?  “But he  (The King) isn’t wearing anything at all!”? (The Emperor’s New Clothes a tale by by Hans Christian Andersen)? I’m even feeling guilty posting this:) 

More ‘guilt’: Watch how Alyssa Milano transforms into a Snooki girl. Fascinating!

Sex And The City 2 Trailer

I love watching Sex And The City anything, the movie or the re-runs. It takes me back to my New York City apartment in the West Village right across Magnolia Bakery where I used to live. It also reminds me the ‘going out’ and the single life of a young girl aka Marta Walsh (well back then I was a Marta Kosashvili) living in the big city. Those were fun times. Just a note: living in New York City for many years I didn’t see many women dressed like Carrie Bradshaw, so a lot of SATC is a fantasy and bigger than life. Sorry guys didn’t mean to ruin it for you:) Now, Sex And The City 2 is here and it’s official and we have the trailer.

Allen Edwards Interviews With Marta Walsh

The following interview was quite a fascinating experience for me. Few weeks ago I was given an incredible chance to chat with Allen Edwards the man who created The Farrah for Farrah Fawcett one of the most famous haircuts of our time. I grew up in Israel watching my mom trying to get The Farrah and even me as a child was dreaming of having that flip and layered cut. It felt like I was writing a piece in history. Farrah left Allen Edwards at one point to another hairdresser called: Jose Eber, who apparently also takes credit for creating The Farrah. But, Farrah Fawcett went to Allen first! Read more.


Allen Edwards

For more than three decades the internationally recognized beauty industry icon, Allen Edwards has been styling the tresses of some of the most glamorous women in the world including Farrah Fawcett, Donna Mills, Anne Bancroft, Diane Keaton and Raquel Welch. It was Edwards who fashioned Assistant District Attorney Marcia Clark’s new look during the O.J. Simpson murder trial. Modern Salon Magazine recently named Allen Edwards among 50 most influencial hairdressers in history with industry leaders Vidal Sasson, Jose Eber and Sally Hershberger. Also a must read Allen’s 200-page memoir: “Shear Force: An Image-Maker’s Memoir”, released in 2008. The book details the glitzy Beverly Hills beauty industry over the past 30 years and Allen Edwards tumultuous parallel ride through it all.

In this interview Allen Edwards talks to Marta Walsh about his beginnings as a young hairdresser in Beverly Hills. How one day he met Farrah Fawcett and what led him creating The Farrah one of the most famous haircuts of our time . Talks about the changes in hairstyles and celebrities over the years. The celebrity who he would love to style today. His favorite Shear Force products. Gives advice to aspiring celebrity hairstylists. And talks future plans.

Marta Walsh: When did your interest in hair design begin?
Allen Edwards: I was always into the arts side of the world. I was a musician and a dancer from 8 years old till I was 19. I thought that’s what I’m going to do. After meeting other musicians I’ve realized they really didn’t make much money. When I got out of high school I quit playing trumpet. Around that time I met some people who went to beauty school. That interested me. Since I quite music and career was always important to me, I decided to go to beauty school. It came really easy to me.

Blake Lively at the Sherlock Holmes New York City Premiere

I love Blake Lively’s hair at the New York City premiere of “Sherlock Holmes” last night. In fact, it seems that I always love Blake’s hair. She’s just got it going on. Blake’s dress is once again the opposite of plain, and somewhat outrageous. I love how she is not afraid to go for unexpected and sexy styles. I see a little bit of Lady Gaga influence with the dress. Is this a dress/body suite? All in all, Blake Lively’s style experimentations are SO Marta Walsh:)

La Roche-Posay Toleriane Dermo-Cleanser

I’m a huge La Roche-Posay Rosaliac Gelee Micellar Make-up Removal Gel fan! It really revolutionized my ‘before bedtime clean your face’ routine. Never tried the La Roche-Posay Toleriane Dermo-Cleanser and I hear this cleanser is a favorite of Sorority Wars star Chelan Simmons.

When competing with 60 other girls to win a spot in the Delta house on Lifetime’s Sorority Wars, Chelan Simmons knew that clear skin was essential. Looking to keep her fair, sensitive skin glowing, she starts her beauty routine every day by washing with La Roche-Posay Toleriane Dermo-Cleanser: With a light, smooth texture and fragrance and preservative-free formula, the Toleriane Dermo-Cleanser gently removes makeup and residue without overdrying, making it perfect for dry, sensitive skin. Formulated with Glycerin and Thermal Spring Water, the creamy cleanser hydrates and soothes while also deeply cleaning your pores and removing even the most stubborn makeup.

Toleriane Dermo-Cleanser retails for $19.50 and is available at CVS locations nationwide and at www.laroche-posay.com
