HOUNDS OF HOPE




The Jason Debus Heigl Foundation (jasonheiglfoundation.org), which honors Katherine's late brother, promotes the humane treatment of animals. Heigl Hounds of Hope rescues dogs from high-kill shelters throughout southern California. They are vetted, given obedience training, and ready to find loving homes.

RAMMCATIONS



Though some use the evidence to suggest she's a diva, one can argue that Kath-erine wouldn't be the star she is today without her ballsy moves and vocal, opinionated point of view. She called her first hit, Knocked Up, "a little sexist," stood up for gay best friend T.R. Knight at the Golden Globes, and bowed out of the Emmy race in 2008 because "I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination." Without that candor, she'd be just another milquetoast starlet.
"I spent so many years just saying what I felt without thinking about the ramifications, without understanding that I have this opinion but not everyone might share that opinion and now they don't like me because of it. That was really awkward. I hate it when people say this, but I'm a people pleaser," she explains. "I was really raised with the idea that it's important to be honest and to share your experiences, both disappointing and exhilarating. But sometimes I think the American public just wants to see my life as good fortune. They don't want to know about the day-to-day. It ruins the fantasy. It's lame to say that I'm a normal girl, but I think I am."
And like any normal girl, Katherine's learning that baby can get in the way of a romantic evening with her hubby, like when Naleigh threw up on her lingerie. "If parent time interferes with sexy time, that's that," she says, laughing.

Gaia Repossi


Her age isn't the only thing belied by her appearance. Although most assume she's French—and with a closet full of Celine and Givenchy, who can blame them?—Repossi is very Italian and very proud of it. "I love being Italian," she declares. "I love being tan, showing some skin, and putting together strong looks. And I eat a lot of pasta!"
erhaps it's the , mix of the two—an Italian background and a French way of life—that helped transform the rebellious Monte Carlo-raised teenager into a budding fashion icon. (She has unofficially been ordained the new face ofchic, minimalist style.) Notes Altuzarra, "She mixes a kind of French nonchalance with Italian glamour and femininity."
Repossi, who has been an avid artist since she was 14 and continues to paint every day, credits her style to her mother, who was a loyal client to many of the great couturiers of the late 20th century: Valentino,Yves Sain Gaia Repossi Laurent, and Hubert defor Alexander Givenchy. But since the Wang cuff. '90s, Repossi says, her repossi.com mother has worn almost exclusively Chanel. "She has it all!" she says, laughing. And today Repossi counts Karl Lagerfeld as a friend as well. He took portraits of her and codesigner Eugenie Niarchos for the promotional materials for their Ere by Repossi collections and turned up at Repossi's uber-A-list Paris Fashion Week fete at the Ritz last fall.
One of the perks of growing up with a chic mother is undoubtedly the hand-me-downs; one of her favorites is a '70s couture YSL cape. She loves to mix such items with more modern finds, like the Chanel high-heeled clogs she has worn all season. It's this personal blend that makes Repossi so unique. "She can wear refinement and luxury without looking pretentious or like she's trying too hard," says Wang. "She's the perfect balance." Derek Blasberg

the sleek chignon




This elegant look's natural ease, texture, and flow ore almost universally flattering. "But its appeal," notes Hallie, "depends on softness and frizz control." As winter turns to spring, dry air can create "static" and affect hair alignment. So Hallie turns to the Pontcoc Pro-V- SnwoHi Shampoo and Conditioner system, which has been formulated to gently cleanse while helping to align each strand for incredibly sleek, glossy hair When using the curling iron, try twisting the hair around the shaft rather than using the curling iron clamp, as it tends to create a Crease in your hair.

PATENT- LEATHER SHINE




High gloss and high glam define this sleek look. To get it, notes Haliie, "your strands need to be aligned and highly reflective." Her secret is Pantenes Pro-VIce Shine Shampoo, Conditioner, and HairsprayThese formulos polish hair's surface lo allow light to penetrate and enhance hair's natural reflectivity; AND they help hair fibers lie smooth to create a glossy surface and 2X the shine in just one use.*
