Avril tires of messing around, accepts 14 carat ring from that Nickleback guy

Yeah, I had to google him too

Canada’s most hated performers joined forces when Avril Lavigne accepted a proposal from Chad Kroeger. Honestly, I don’t quite get why they are so reviled – most of their tunes have a good beat and you could probably dance to them. But that’s neither here nor there. This is Chad’s first marriage and he’s sealing the deal with a 14 carat wonder. Avril is coming down off a 3 year hiatus after a divorce from Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley and inspirational 2 year fling with hottie Brody Jenner. Those spiky blond Canadians hold something dear to Avril’s heart though. Kroeger and Lavigne met while working on tunes for her new project. It’s a whirlwind 6 months romance. Here’s wishing the best for them! | Check out the Abbey Dawn by Avril Lavigne album from Fashion Week

CND Shellac and Minx provide gold medal coverage for Olympic athletes

If you missed all of the fabulous nail coverage during the Olympics, well, frankly I’m little shocked. But never fear! We have a collage to help you tap into all of the nail madness provided by the amazing CND educators and partners Sweet Squared across the pond. A combination of CND nail art and Minx allowed these competitors from all over the world to proudly display their nail art and national flags.

Ready for a little trivia too?

• 216 bottles of Shellac were used on the athletes at Rowing, Canoe and Sailing Villages
• 588 bottles of CND Solar Oil were used/given to keep hands and feet conditioned (you thought it was just pecs?)

The work doesn’t stop there.  The mani/pedis continue with the Paralympic athletes…

#totesamaze : P’Trique makes it to ANTM

When P’Trique’s Eyes are Smizing

Tyra Banks claims to know talent when she sees it, and she’s spotted it in spade with everyone’s favorite fashionista, P’Trique!

To the delight of many, the unnatural blond is set to appear on America’s Next Top Model: Cyle 19 College Edition.  Check out the announcement video:

Lookin’ mighty fine in them jeans, boy

I dig the synchronized strolling captured in this photo sent over to me by 7 For All Mankind of Prince Harry and the-dutchess-we-want-to-call-princess.   Harry is donning a nice looking pair of 7s while visiting Olympic athletes with Kate Middleton.  I have a bit of a footwear fetish, and can’t help notice he’s paired these with moccasins!  Also, ladies, the wedge is in full effect across the pond as well.  Two tone! Stripes! Neutral camel!  These royals manage to look put together and still on task in casual wear.  It’s refreshing.
