http://www.arabnews.com/news/445516 Many thoughts flash through a woman's mind on the eve of a double mastectomy - most prominently fears about her mortality. But in the thicket of complicated emotions that crowded Laurel Kamen's brain as she sat in her Kalorama apartment contemplating her diagnosis of breast cancer, she also had to reckon with fretfulness about her future wardrobe. A woman of accomplishment and intelligence, who is neither shallow nor narcissistic, Kamen had none of the tortured ambivalence about fashion and style that haunts so many women of her stature. Kamen, a Chicago native and a former executive at American Express who had spent a chunk of her formative years in New York, considered fashion an expression of confidence and control. Put simply, she liked looking good and she wanted to continue looking good after both of her breasts were removed and she adjusted to the contours of a torso not reconstructed with either silicone or saline. In preparation for her surgery, Kamen had been prowling the Internet on a pre-shopping spree, searching for clothes that would flatter what would soon be her new shape but that would also be comfortable and practical enough to wear while she was recuperating. She didn't find any clothes that met her criteria - sophisticated, grown-up - and out of her frustration came a business plan. She decided to create a line of clothing for women who have had breast cancer. The collection would see them through their recuperation after a mastectomy. And it would flatter their post-operative figures - whether they chose reconstructive surgery, prosthetics or nothing. Sadly, this is no small market. According to the American Cancer Society, there will be 232,340 new cases of invasive breast cancer diagnosed in women this year. But Kamen's research turned up few good, accessible fashion options for them - or her.

Best Celebrity Dresses at The Cannes Film Festival 2013: Day 1-3 The world famous Cannes Festival is happening in France right now, from May 15 - May 26, 2013. As the days go by, I will be covering celebrity dresses and fashion from the red carpet almost in real time. Cannes Film Festival fashion is a huge part of this amazing event. This year I started the festival coverage by sharing the delicious and exquisite menu that was cooked by celebrity chefs and served at the Opening Gala Dinner. Now it's time talk about the most interesting celebrity dresses that cameras captured in the first 3 days of Cannes Festival, May 15 - May 17. On Wednesday, May 15, actress and model Sarah Marshall proudly wore my favorite gown of the day complemented by Montblanc earrings, necklace, ring and "bijou de tete" from the Princess Grace de Monaco collection in white gold and diamonds. The second noticeable dress, simple and elegant, was worn by Annabelle Belmondo at "The Great Gatsby" party. She put accent on accessories keeping her look effortless and very tasteful. On Thursday, May 16, Sonia Roland looked impressive in an olive-brown dress rocking animal print that was perfectly classy. It's a great example of animal print done right. On Friday, May 17, Jessica Miller looked stunning in an original black-and-white gown with minimal accessories (4810 pendent in red gold and diamonds along with Princess Grace de Monaco bracelets in red gold and diamonds). The dress concept is borrowed from the classic office shirt that makes the dress absolutely unique: it's a perfect gown for every occasion with a contemporary feel that will never be out of place: not overdressed, not underdressed, and 100% original.

Emma Watson dit elle se sent comme une « fraude totale » parfois Emma Watson peut sembler qu'elle a obtenu tout cela ensemble quand elle frappe le tapis rouge à la recherche de fabuleux dans les robes de créateurs. Mais même la star de 23 ans se sent parfois incertain d'elle-même. "Je vais revenir dans ma ville natale et je vais aller au pub et voir les gars, j'ai grandi avec, et c'est tellement fou - je reviens immédiatement à qui j'étais quand j'avais 12 ans, quand j'ai pensé que j'étais juste totalement insuffisant," Watson révèle dans une nouvelle interview avec le magazine de la recrue. Même son succès à Hollywood n'a pas réussi à faire l'actrice se sentent plus en sécurité. « C'est presque comme le mieux faire, plus mon sentiment d'inadéquation augmente réellement, » poursuit-elle. "Parce que je vais me contenter, ' n'importe quel moment, quelqu'un va savoir je suis une fraude totale, et que je ne mérite pas tout ce que j'ai accompli. Je ne peux pas vivre éventuellement jusqu'à ce que tout le monde pense que je suis et de ce que chacun attend de moi. "" Mais comme elle continue à se développer et évoluer au-delà de ses journées de Harry Potter, Watson explique qu'elle a acquis plus de confiance pour sortir de sa zone de confort avec des rôles racés comme son personnage de jeune fille riche de voleurs dans The Bling Ring. "Pour mon audition, je suis sorti et acheté des boucles d'oreilles et ce chapeau fou comme celui Alexis porte quand elle va pour voir son avocat, et j'ai mis sur les tonnes de poudre bronzante et un faux bronzage - j'ai juste allé pleine et avait le meilleur temps à le faire," elle partage.
