Student shows off haute spring style

By Stephanie Trembath, Fashion Editor

arah Houlihan, a student in S the joint program between

Douglas College and SFU, had the opportunity to model for one of the students at the Vancouver Film School this past weekend flaunting her favourite spring style. With a limited budget and no makeup stylists, Houlihan effortlessly created a retro- rocker vibe; complete with faux-hawk hair and smoky makeup.

Keeping a limited budget in mind, Houlihan says she mainly shops at Value Village, American Apparel, and H&M, but will treat herself to accessories or odd pieces from Aritzia and Urban Outfitters.

“T really like vintage clothing and the whole retro theme that’s going on right now; the ‘80s had a lot of really cool ideas that I am glad we have brought back. Vintage stores are awesome places to find one-of-a-kind clothes; you just have to spend more time looking.”

Of her favourite style icons, Houlihan says she imitates Rhianna’s rocker vibe with her big hair-dos and

smoky eye makeup.

“Although I hate to admit it, I watch what Mary-Kate and Ashley Olson are wearing, they have a lot of really good ideas and sweet vintage finds in their wardrobes.”

Although the makeup may be a bit dramatic for a school day, these to outfits are perfect for a night out or spending an afternoon walking around downtown.

On Sarah: leather jacket by H&M for $40, black shirt by Sarah, pants from Value Village, geometric black and white dress from American Apparel $30. Anchor necklace by Brighton. Makeup: MAC bronzed eye shadow and rouged lipstick.

eading lady Anne Hathaway is at it again, playing the White

Queen in Tim Burtons Alice in Wonderland released last Friday. Popular in both Princess Diaries and Ella Enchanted, Hathaway is a prime prototype for princess roles with her pale complexion, classic dark features, and wide smile. With an acting approach compared to classic actresses such as Audrey Hepburn and Judy Garland, Hathaway’s transition from a Disney doll to a more mature actress has made her one of Hollywood’s most promising actresses.

Born in Brooklyn, New York, Hathaway began acting at 16 ina television series before making it big as a Disney princess. Characterized as a royal klutz in her initial princess- themed movies, her role in the R-Rated film Havoc, in which she appears nude in several scenes, proved Hathaway was looking to radically change her role as an actress.

“Anyone who was a role model for children needs a reprieve,” Hathaway said. “It’s lovely to think that my audience is growing up with me.”

Her next big debut alongside Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada, not only furthered her

Lo

career, but again had her playing her characteristic role of the soft-spoken klutzy girl. Immersed in the fashion scene, Hathaway was forced to lose

a dramatic amount of weight for her part in The Devil Wears Prada so that she could fit into the haute couture clothing.

“T basically stuck with fruit, veggies, and fish to slim down...

I wouldn’t recommend that,” says Hathaway of her task to trim down.

Hathaway has also claimed that she finds such films “hideously commercial,” especially of her part in Bride Wars opposite Kate Hudson. Hathaway claims she enjoyed working with Steve Carrell in Get Smart, and regards Mery] Streep as her celebrity icon.

Unlike many self-obsessed Hollywood femmes, Hathaway keeps her personal life quiet and rarely makes appearances in magazines or tabloids if it does not concern a current project she is involved in. Heard quoting Oscar Wilde Hathaway believes; “The less said about life’s sores the better.”

A classic beauty with the brains:

such a rare find with celebrities today. Anne Hathaway’s remarkable character and Julia Roberts-esque smile makes her March’s Modern Muse as she steps up from a princess, into the wonderland of a queen.
