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 cen^tury^{: 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 Pantene^s Pro-V^s Ice 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.*

Historically speaking, we've seen the girl-about-town silhouette vacillate between the American socialite's version of specific, pin-tucked chic and a Parisian rock star's rendering of loose and bohemian. This summer, Chanel dominated this Parisian dishevelment with the likes of Lou Doillon, Clemence Poesy, and Joana Preiss looking sultry and smoky in their front-row seats. But this new set has cultivated its own mixture of both these aesthetics: Clothes are luxe and tailored, and the behavior is ladylike, but the overall look isn't nearly as constricted, conservative, or contrived as that of its forebearers.  Not that these girls are completely monogamous with their Valentino and Valli wardrobes. To this Italian flash, these women splice in French class. Repossi is devoted to Celine, Niarchos and Zhukova are personal friends of Riccardo Tisci and love his Givenchy designs, and Sieber admits diat she finds herself in something from Chanel every day. Some girls are even more adventurous: Monroque has been known to work colorful vintage Prada and modern-day Miu Miu pieces into her wardrobe, and Lauren Santo Domingo is happy to wave the American fashion flag with wares from Proenza Schouler and Joseph Altuzarra.  While each girl has her own particular look—Dellal says she's "always been nostalgic for the old glamour of the '30s and '40s," Bianca Brandolini hardly ever covers her long legs, and Repossi says that from her Italian roots she appreciates her "tan in the summer and the confidence to wear strong outfits"— the common theme is a look that is both studied and casual, full of both class and chaos. Somehow it seems these girls are nonchalant and graceful and tousled all at the same cime.

FASHION FLOCK

Many of the members of this new social set, like the Brandolini sisters (Bianca is an actress, and Coco is a fashion consultant), jewelry designers Repossi and Delettrez Fendi, family-brand ambassador Missoni, and fashion stylist Giovanna Battaglia, are proud Italians, so it comes as no surprise that Rome-born, Paris-based fashion designer Giambattista Valli is the unofficial ringleader. It's a role he's happy to assert. "We started this movement at my very first shows. I wanted to bring a certain freshness to the front row, so I invited all my young friends," Valli says now, championing his godfather status. "Since then, they've become the It girls at all the defiles!"
It's a way of life for these Italian women in Paris, mixing their native va-va-voom with a special blend of French chic or, as Valli describes it, "Italian spontaneous attitude mixed
We haven't seen a tight-knit group like this one since the Miller sisters invaded Europe and began marrying its princes in the'90s
with French couture. Caviar et T-shirt! Pizza et haute couture! They are part of a generation regaining its femininity. They have turned the proportions of their mothers' couture gowns into party dresses."
  Not that this new guard is limited to France's eastern neighbor. Sieber, a fashion stylist, is Austrian; Dellal, who is the founder and face of the successful shoe company Charlotte Olympia, grew up in London, as did Sophia Hesketh, Lord Hesketh's fashion-stylist daughter; Julia Restoin Roitfeld, an art director, and Josephine de La Baume, a singer and actress, were both born and raised in Paris. The Eastern bloc is represented by supermodel Natalia Vodianova, who is seen in the front row more than she is on the catwalk these days, and art-world power player Dasha Zhukova. And this gang's tentacles reach across the Atlantic too: There's Colombian heiressTatianaSanto Domingo; Brazils Alexia Niedzielski, a photo editor; and fashion editors Lauren Santo Domingo and Monroque, both of whom reside in New York City.

THE LOVE OF COLOR

This season, models lit up the runway in the richest of jewel tones, hair to toe. What has our stylist gushing? All things green! Emeralds, jades, and teals are paired to pop with the perfect complement: glossy ginger locks.

CORNELIA GUEST: LADY OF THE MAI

It's hard to believe that there was a time when well-brought-up girls might have preferred to stay in Locust Valley with their ponies and French governesses rather than head for Manhattan to disappear into the demimonde. Nowadays, busting out of the gilded cage is standard socialite behavior, but Cornelia Guest did it first.
Or if not first, she certainly did it loudest. At age 18, with her mothers pal Nancy Reagan newly installed in the White House, the daughter ot polo-playing Winston and fashion icon C.Z. Guest took her fresh-off-the-horse style to the glittering nocturnal corridors of Studio 54, Xenon, and Regine's. The press dubbed her the Deb of the Decade.
"I was really, really lucky," says Guest on an early-autumn evening soon after putting Templeton—her famous family home in Old Westbury on Long Islands Gold Coast—on the market for $11.9 million. (The price tag includes neither Salvador Dall's portrait of C.Z. nor Andy Warhol's of Cornelia.) "When I was living in the city, I had these people who protected me: Andy, Halston, Scavullo." All three functioned as de facto fain' godfathers for the young Cornelia. Halston taught her how to walk in a dress on the makeshift runway in his studio, and fashion photographer Francesco Scavullo would watch her collect ribbons at the Hampton Classic horse show.
The equestrian habit may have saved Guest from the other popular habits of the day—or night, as the case was. "I loved to go out," she says, "but I was on a horse the next morning. Aid there was my mother at home waiting to wake me up by pointing the garden hose at my bedroom window. The truth is, 1 didn't have that bad-girl gene."
Guest was four years old v/hen she first met Warhol at one ol her parents' Templeton dinners. "Andy came up to my room and played wirh me all night," she remembers. "We became great friends.' Guest recalls the time Warhol joined her at the International Jumping Derby in Newport, Rhode Island. The hotels were booked that weekend, and she and her retinue were staying on a friend's yacht. "One night, the captain came up and said there was a hurricane coming and we needed to go out to sea and ride it out," she says. "Andy turned whiter than he already was. I realized he didn't know how to swim."

Easy Exercises
"A denned leg isn't just about beautiful thighs, it's about toning from your glutes to your ankles," says Los Angeles trainer Danny Musico, whose clients include celebrities like Jessica Simpson. He recommends three sets of 12 to 15 of the following exercises two to three times per week to notice results in two weeks. Calf raises: Stand on an aerobic step with your heels hanging off, then raise yourself up and down on your toes.



Medical Options
Unsightly spider veins? Workout-resistant fat? Exercise and cover-up may not be enough. Consider ...
Sclerotherapy: "To treat small to midsize varicose veins, sclerotherapy is the gold standard," says surgeon Luis Navarro, medical director of New York City's Vein Treatment Center, of the injections designed to irritate the inner lining of the vein so it collapses and disappears. Cost: around $450 per session with about three to five sessions requited. 
Mini phlcbectomy: "Larger veins need more aggressive treatment," says Navarro. "The procedure involves taking a needle and making a nick in the skin so we can hook the vein out. It's usually combined with another treatment like sclerotherapy or lasers." Cost: $2,000 and up.
 Endovenous laser ablation; A less invasive treatment for larger veins, EVLA uses a laser inside the vein to close it. "It requires one session with local anesthesia, but you can go right back to work," explains Navarro. Cost: around $3,500.
Liposuction: "The most underappreciated areas to treat are the calves and ankles," says Gerald Pitman, a Manhattan plastic surgeon. He adds, "Women often tell me after that they can now fit into their boots." He says that your surgeon should have a good sculptural sense and use ultrafine cannula tubes and mini incisions. Average recovery time is five to seven days. Cost: around $7,000. Liposuction also works well for outer-thigh fat or "saddlebags."Lauren Cohen

Fake Flawless Skin
No one does legs like the Victoria's Secret models, which is why we went to Meredith Baraf, the makeup artist responsible for the glowing gams on the runway. Her advice: Use a self-tanner. Lets face it, legs look better tan. Just make it a fake tan. "And exfoliate beforehand," says Baraf. "It evens out the top layer of your skin so the tan fades naturally." Try Ahava Micro-peeling Cream Wash ($19.50) and Victoria's Secret Sunkissed Bronze Instant Self Tan Lotion ($12). Once the tan dries, set it with a moisturizer like I ubriderm Advanced Therapy Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30 ($6.99). "This helps the tan lastabitlonger."

Slim down with shimmer. Apply highlighter along your shin bones and up the
cen tcr of your thighs to reflect light and make legs look thinner. TrySt. Tropez Skin Illuminator Cream ($25).
Smooth your problem areas. For a quick, albeit temporary, slimming effect, rub in a caffeine-containing lotion like Sunday Riley Liquid Diet ($105).
Last-minute trick: If you have only minutes to get ready, use a fast-drying body bron-zer. "This will make legs appear less past)' and blotchy," notes Baraf. We like Josie Maran Bronzing Argan Oil ($52).

editor's obsession

As far as Parisian fashion royalty goes, the perennially best-dressed Camille Miceli reigns supreme. A longtime muse for Marc Jacobs, the effortlessly chic Miceli has held some of the most coveted positions in fashion (she interned for Azzedine AlaYa at age 16 and spent seven years in the press office at Chanel and more than a decade in various incarnations at Louis Vuitton), all leading up to her current role as the artistic director of costume jewelry at Dior. For her much-lauded first collection, the #&cool designer seemed to look to architectural influences, with sleek cone-shaped statement pieces; clusters of mixed metals, chains, and pearls; and more delicate rose-encrusted masterpieces. Ranging in price from $250 to $3,200, the collection hits stores in June.
