Jon Hamm is loved by the ladies!

Even with a scarf, hat, and sunglasses, a group of lucky ladies still managed to recognize Mad Men hunk Jon Hamm! The 40-year-old was spotted by photographers (and swooning ladies alike) while making his way down the street to eat at Little Dom’s restaurant in Los Feliz, California on Saturday, December 3rd, 2011.

Can’t say that I blame them in the least!

Jon has been keeping busy on the set of the AMC hit (as seen in the images here) which is set to return during the Spring of 2012. And that is not a minute too soon as fans have been DYING to find out what has been going on with their favorite advertising executive.

I hope we get to see a lot more pictures from the set real soon. The costumes are so amazing!

Fab or Fail: Leona Lewis at Emeralds and Ivy Ball

While there is no denying Leona Lewis looks stunning from the neck up, I’m not to sure this is her best fashion choice as of yet. Dressed in a low cut, bejeweled ballgown, the 26-year-old opted to throw on a burgundy tuxedo jacket to the Emeralds & Ivy Ball in aid of Cancer Research UK and the Marie Keating Foundation held at Supernova on December 3, 2011 in London, England.

If you ask me, the jacket is what really turned her look into a “fail” for me. I understand she (or her stylist) was trying to make her girly ensemble a bit more masculine but sadly I think she missed the mark. What matters most though is if she felt beautiful when she stepped out of her house and that she wore it with confidence!

Leona recently released details of her upcoming EP entitled, Hurt which is due for release on December 9th. Three songs, entitled ‘Hurt’, ‘Iris’ and ‘Colorblind’ will be featured in the highly anticipated release.

She will perform on X-Factor UK and USA in support of the release. Stay tuned for details!

Bradley Cooper and Michael Fassbender step out in style in London

Did Bradley Cooper and Michael Fassbender ring each other before heading out for the evening? Both actors opted for grey suits to attend the Moet British Independent Film Awards 2011 held at Old Billingsgate Market on Sunday, December 4th, 2011 in London, England.

Fassbender took home the Best Actor award this evening for his work on the dramatic film entitled Shame. He beat out Brendan Gleeson (The Guard), Neil Maskell (Kill List), Gary Oldman (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy) and Peter Mullan (Tyrannosaur).

Bradley, who is currently enjoying his status of Sexiest Man Alive, was spotted joking around with a bevy of beautiful ladies. While I doubt he had any trouble pulling the ladies in the past, having such an accolade can’t be hurting his game!

For those of you wanted to get a glimpse of Fassbender in the role that won him his 2nd Best Actor Award from the Moet British Independent Film Awards, check out Shame– in theaters now!

Gabrielle Union and La La Vazquez enjoyed an ‘Evening in Vogue’

Gabrielle Union, La La Vazquez, & Loren Ridinger

What better way to wrap up Art Basel than a breathtaking runway event featuring Missoni’s Spring 2012 collection?! After a pretty hectic week, I had the pleasure to attend the ‘Evenings in Vogue’ event hosted by Loren Ridinger and Jeffrey Kalinsky on Saturday, December 3rd, 2011 at the breathtaking Ridinger Estate, Casa de SueƱos in Miami Beach, Florida.

Stars in attendance included Gabrielle Union (sans boyfriend Dwayne Wade), La La Vazquez (in Missoni), Nicki and Paris Hilton, Burn Notice and The Tudors star Gabrielle Anwar, Miami Heat power forward Chris Bosh, Housewives of Miami star Lea Black, and the always beautiful Katrina Campins (in a Nicole Miller gown).

Speaking of Katrina who enjoyed a successful stint on The Apprentice and Miami Social, confessed she has some amazing things coming up so stay tuned for the details!

I had the pleasure to sit directly behind Vittorio Missoni who told me that the inspiration for the line came from watching flamencos. Indeed the delicious hues of blues and yellows on the fringed and ruffled pieces were evocative of a sensual night of dancing in Spain.

The property set the scene beautifully for an event that hosted over 600 people, and the weather couldn’t have been any better. Not to mention how amazingly humble and down-to-Earth both Vittorio and Angela Missoni were!

My only complaint? I somehow missed out on getting the fabulous gift bag! :(

Kat Von D takes on Miami during Art Basel

It’s been a bumpy year for tattoo artist Kat Von D, but this hasn’t prevented her from focusing on her success. So many people might judge Kat for dating that slime bucket Jessie James after he was busted for cheating on America’s sweetheart Sandra Bullock, but how many of us have not picked the wrong dude?

Katherine Drachenberg, better known as Von D, made a special appearance at Sephora in South Beach, Miami, Florida on Thursday, December 1st, 2011 to unveil eight original prints from her “New American Beauty” art show during Art Basel 2012.

The first fifty prints of the drawings sold benefitted The Art of Elysium, a non-profit charity the reality star founded to help critically ill children.

If you were one of the first 100 guests to to purchase a print, you gained access to the VIP viewing party hosted by Kat herself. I’m so sad I didn’t head out to the beach earlier as it seems like I missed out on all the festivities!

The show will be exhibited at the beauty stores throughout 2012.
