Demi Moore in Carrera Sunglasses

Demi Moore has plenty to think about with the scandalous end to her marriage from Ashton Kutcher, thereby, de-throning her as the the queen of the cougars. But the media can’t leave well enough alone and began focusing on something other than Ashton’s reported infidelities–her “painfully” thinning physique. In the February issue of Harper’s Bazaar, Demi admits that, indeed, she is thinner than usual lately, but who can blame her due to the circumstances. However, she’s apparently accepted how she looks, even if the public hasn’t, telling the mag, “that includes not just my weight but all of the things that come with your changing body as you age …” She says people are actually telling her “You’re too thin, and you don’t look good.” Like many women, getting to a state of “acceptance” about her body image wasn’t easy. “I have had a love-hate relationship with my body,” she explains.

Demi also (sort of) addresses her split in the interview. “I used to think that what scared me was the idea of being abandoned until someone said to me, ‘Only children can be abandoned. Adults can’t be abandoned because we have a choice.’” She says she dug deeper to understand what really scares her. “I think what scares me is not having the courage to reach my full potential.” And with three failed marriages behind her, she reveals her greatest fear : ultimately finding out that “I’m really not lovable, that I’m not worthy of being loved…That there’s something fundamentally wrong with me.” Don’t by into Demi, you’re truly FAB, especially in boyfriend jeans, strappy boots, and these cool Carrera aviators.  –rpuccia

Anne Hathaway in Carrera Sunglasses

Anne Hathaway’s incarnation of Catwoman has become somewhat of an intrigue among fans. She recently sat down with the LA Times on the set of the Dark Knight Rises–the latest Batman installment due out in theaters this summer–to give some insight on her sexy new role and where she got her inspiration. “What’s come before doesn’t limit or even affect this new version,” the Oscar-nominated actress said about the Catwoman role. “It doesn’t affect me because each Catwoman is defined by the context of the Gotham City created around her.” She explained that Catwoman is greatly influenced by Gotham and whoever is creating Gotham at the time, e.g., Michelle Pfeiffer’s Catwoman was informed by Tim Burton’s Gotham and Eartha Kitt was informed by Adam West’s Gotham. “You have to live in whatever the reality of the world is and whatever Gotham is,” Anne revealed.

For her ferocious feline part, Anne said she was deeply inspired by Batman creator Bob Kane’s original inspiration for Catwoman: screen siren Hedy Lamarr. “I know this sounds odd, but her breathing is extraordinary,” Hathaway said of the Golden Age star. “She takes these long, deep, languid breaths and exhales slowly.” Anne goes on to illustrate her point saying there’s a scenebof Hedy in the 1933 film Ecstasy exhaling a cigarette and that she probably took five breaths during Hedy’s single exhale. “So I started working on my breathing a lot,” Anne said about prep for her role.  Anne’s breathy new Catwoman will be intriguing indeed, but in the meantime, she’s casual-cool in short cowboy boots and sporty-chic Carrera shades.  –rpuccia

Jaime King in Carrera Sunglasses

There’s a new Southern Belle (well, “diva” may be more appropriate) in town from the new CW series Hart of Dixie. Jaime King’s character Lemon Breeland is the quintessential Southern woman — with a big helpin’ of attitude. But Jaime says there’s a world of hurt inside her. “You find out that Lemon’s mother left her when she was 16 years old, so she has a really big hole there,” she tells TVGuide.com. “This huge desire to be perfect, have people like her and to be the perfect woman comes from her thinking that maybe it’s something she did that caused her mom to leave.” In the series premiere, Lemon meets new-girl-in-town Zoe Hart (played by Rachel Bilson) and is anything but nice to her. Besides the drama between Lemon and Zoe, there’s heightened emotional tension between Lemon and the town mayor, Lavon (played by Cress Williams). As the season progresses, viewers will learn that Lemon and Lavon once had an affair–and although she is now engaged to the hunky town attorney, George (played by Scott Porter) Jamie adds that Lavon may, in fact, be Lemon’s true love. “When you see Lemon and Lavon together, you see the real Lemon, her vulnerability is all there.”

While the series is complete with its love triangles and small-town drama, Jaime says there’s lots of humor, too. You can catch Jaime in Hart of Dixie Mondays on the CW. In the meantime she’s looking mighty fine in these sleek Carrera shades available in three metal frame finishes.  –rpuccia

Ryan Gosling in Carrera Sunglasses

Would you believe actor Ryan Gosling started as a mousketeer at age 12 on the Mickey Mouse Club alongside Britney, Justin, and Christina? Well, he’s come a long way since, and at 30, has Academy Award (for Half Nelson) and Golden Globe (for Lars and the Real Girl and Blue Valentine) nominations under his belt. Though he has built a bit of a rep for playing misfits in independent films, he has also tackled commercially successful movies, including 2004′s romantic hit The Notebook. This year you’ll find him in a whopping three mainstream films–Crazy, Stupid, Love, Drive and the upcoming, much-buzzed-about political drama The Ides of March with George Clooney due out in theaters tomorrow.

In an interview with the UK’s The Times, hunky Ryan revealed he expects his golden years to arrive sooner rather than later. “I’ve been doing this since I was 12… I don’t want to act much longer,” he told the paper. Additionally, Ryan revealed he has fatherhood on the brain. “I’d like to be making babies but I’m not, so I’m making movies,” he told the paper, via E!. “When someone comes along, I don’t think I’ll be able to do both and I’m fine with that. I’ll make movies until I make babies,” he quipped. Could his current love Eva Mendez be “the one?” No question about it, we love his rugged sporty style in these classic Carrera aviators. –rpuccia

Kris Humphries in Carrera Sunglasses

Hmmm. Turns out it may not just be Kim Kardashian’s sisters that Kris Humphries has rubbed the wrong way. The former University of Minnesota star and new Mr. Kardashian apparently has a long history of bad first impressions dating all the way back to when he took an official visit to B-ball powerhouse Univ. of Kansas during his senior year of high school. In a snippet from the soon-to-be-released book “Beyond the Phog: Untold Stories from Kansas Basketball’s Most Dominant Decade,” former guard Keith Langford told author Jason King of Yahoo! Sports why Kris never became a Jayhawk. Keith said he and his teammates were so disgusted with Kris’ arrogance that they encouraged then-Kansas coach Roy Williams to stop recruiting him. He explained that when Kris visited the school, he apparently told everyone that he’d be the leading scorer as a freshman and that the rest of the team would all have to take a backseat to him. (ouch!). Although a top recruit at the time, Coach Williams heeded his team’s concerns about Kris not meshing well with the program and eventually turned the 6-foot-9 star down. (wah wah wah)

But in defense of the newest member of the Kardashian clan, Kris seems to have matured a bit since his younger days. His former coach still thinks highly of him. Ex-Minnesota coach and current Long Beach State coach Dan Monson reconnected with Kris back in March when the NBA forward called to personally invite him to his wedding. Coach Monson told ESPN.com that Kris said: “I’ve been thinking a lot about you. I’m in a really good place professionally. I’ve met somebody special. I’ve been reflecting back, and you had a lot to do with that. I never got a chance to thank you.” Awww…we’re willing to give this hunk a chance (and so should his sister-in-laws)–especially in these sporty-chic Carrera shades. –rpuccia

Taylor Lautner in Carrera Sunglasses

Taylor Lautner and Dwayne Johnson may soon face off on the big screen. The actors are reportedly in “early talks” to appear in Relativity Media’s Goliath, a source close to the project told Access Hollywood. The Twilight Saga heartthrob would play the role of David, the shepherd boy-turned-giant-slaying future king in the Biblically-based film, and Dwayne would tackle the role of Goliath, the menacing warrior sent to destroy the Israelites. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Scott Derrickson (The Exorcism of Emily Rose) is set to direct the project. But Taylor fans won’t have to wait for Goliath or even The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1, as the the 19-year-old hunky star can soon be seen in the action thriller, Abduction, alongside real-life girlfriend Lily Collins, which hits theaters on September 23.

Taylor dished in the September issue of VMAN that there are a lot of perks to being a part of the Twilight franchise — a ton of adoring fans, invites to exclusive Hollywood parties, the opportunity to book more high-profile roles — but there is a downside, too. “When I am traveling the world promoting the films, I say I am on vacation, but it’s not really true, I guess,” he tells the mag. “When I go to a beautiful city I spend the whole time in a hotel room and then I am back on a plane to the next place.” He continues that because of his busy work schedule he rarely finds time to kick back and relax. “If I’m not filming, I’m promoting, and if it wasn’t Twilight, it was a different movie, so it got really busy,” he says. “I hang out with my friends, family, and kind of just — I don’t even know. It’s like, when I am not filming, it seems like — I don’t even know what I do.” He does, however, seem quite versed in looking lip-smacking delish stepping out in these piping hot Carrera shades.  –rpuccia

Heidi Klum in Carrera Sunglasses

We love us some Heidi Klum and we have an insatiable appetite for her beauty and style wares. She was recently spotted being photographed on a gorgeous Cancun, Mexico, beach for print and TV ad campaigns for her new fragrance, “Shine.” Photographed by Nabil Elderkin, the beach was the perfect backdrop for the new scent. According to HK, she created her new perfume — which has feminine notes of flowers, mandarin, pear, and vanilla — to make women feel “playful, sensual, and radiant.”  And, of course, there’s her amazing figure–it’s hard to believe that the 38-year-super-model mogul has given birth to four children. Sigh…Shine by Heidi Klum will be available to the masses in September at CVS, Rite-Aid, Sears, Kohls, Kmart, and Walmart in 0.5 oz ($17), 1 oz ($28) and 1.6 oz ($35) sizes.

Speaking of her svelte bod, Heidi’s Summer Run initiative with celeb trainer David Kirsch definitely paid off. She kept a log of her incredible 36 runs (131 miles!) on her AOL lifestyle blog for all to see–and get motivated. In addition to those early morning runs, the Project Runway host has been keeping super-busy this summer. She spent last month promoting the Lifetime show’s ninth season, which premiered July 28. She’s also gearing up for the September launch of her costume jewelry line with QVC called “Wildlife by Heidi Klum.” Here she finds time for a breather in sporty Carrera shades, available in three versatile frame colors.  –rpuccia

Hilary Duff in Carrera Sunglasses

After a year of marriage bliss, Hilary Duff just announced she and pro-hockey-hubby, Mike Comrie, are expecting their first child. She gushed on her official website Sunday: “I can’t believe it has already been a year. Time really flies when you’re having fun! We also want to share the exciting news that baby makes three! We are extremely happy and ready to start this new chapter of our lives. Thanks to everyone for the continued love and support throughout the years!” Seems like centuries since Hilary shot to fame on the Disney kid show Lizzie McGuire back in 2001, doesn’t it?

The baby announcement comes on the heels of the launch of Hilary’s new series of ads for Danskin. Part of the athletic wear brand’s “Move for Change” initiative, the actress joins other hot-bodied celebs like Padma Lakshmi, Jenny McCarthy and Christie Brinkley for a campaign that supports health programs for women and children. “This Danskin campaign is for women of all ages: 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s and what they like to do to stay in shape — physically and mentally in mind, body, and soul,” she said recently about the campaign. Her body is certainly locked and loaded for motherhood–and we can’t wait to see how her impeccable style translates into maternity wear. In the meantime, she takes to the street in sporty-chic Carrera aviators.  –rpuccia

Dianna Agron in Carrera Sunglasses

Dianna Agron appeared on multiple mainstream TV shows including Close to Home, CSI: NY, Numb3rs, Veronica Mars, and even Heroes in recent years, but her popularity factor skyrocketed thanks to her role of high school cheerleader / glee club member Quinn Fabray on the FOX hit series Glee. That “Cheerios” uniform looks great on Dianna, given her all-American good looks and spectacular body, and in 2010, she was selected by PEOPLE magazine for their annual Most Beautiful issue. She also came in 8th on AfterEllen.com’s 2011 “Hot 100” list.

Dianna recently caused jaws to drop at the red carpet premier of Glee the 3D Concert Movie, where she was seen alongside costars Lea Michele, Darren Criss, Amber Riley, Corey Monetith, Heather Morris, and Ryan Murpy in a stunning ensemble: a Christian Cota dress, Salvatore Ferragamo shoes, and Cathy Waterman jewels. “That’s quite a mouthful,” the actress joked. “I had to practice that.” These designer Carerra sunglasses are just as fashion savvy—reputation-conscious Quinn would definitely approve! The shades are available in three fabulous frame and lens color combinations.

Miley Cyrus in White Sporty-Chic Sunglasses

On again off again couple Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth are apparently back on. Having wrapped up her uber popular and continuously sold out, Gypsy Heart Tour, Miley Cyrus seems glad to be slowing down her busy schedule and rekindling things with her hunky co-star, Liam. The evidence is piling up on the reunion–just this May, while filming the first of the highly-anticipated book-to-big-screen series, The Hunger Games, in Michigan, Liam flew to Columbia to see Miley. They were also spotted meeting at airports throughout South America and Australia between breaks on legs of her Gypsy Heart Tour. And, rather tellingly, the teen sensation took to Twitter to post romantic sentiments about Liam, repeatedly referring to him as “[my] man” and “[my] boo”. AND just last week, the newly reunited couple were spotted having dinner at a local Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant in Ann Arbor, MI, where he is still filming and she’s apparently taking a much-needed break.

Of course, there are more tweets: “In such a good place right now! So happy 2 finally enjoy what I’ve worked so hard for. Im loving & living MY life! No more BS.” Come to think of it, there’s certainly no BS in the way she’s rocking these white-hot, sporty-chic shield-style shades. –rpuccia
