Christina Hendricks Is New Vivienne Westwood Spokesmodel

The gorgeous actress from MAD MEN  series!! one of my favorites i have to add! 

is teaming up with Vivienne Westwood to promote the designer's "Get a Life" palladium jewelry collection.

The collection is being touted as eco-friendly, because palladium, a white metal in the platinum family, is derived from nature. Westwood chose to exploit the relationship to nature by featuring such items as acorns, leaves and oak trees in her design.
"Get a Life is about how we stop climate change and therefore preserve life for the next generation while at that same time get a better life," Westwood said in a release.
"My focus at the moment is what one person can do. Stop climate change. Save the planet. The acorn is symbolic of the rainforest, its importance and how it is our first duty to save it."

The jewelry collection is available in Vivienne Westwood boutiques in London and Los Angeles.

Christina Hendricks for New York Magazine

Joannie secures her Queen of the Big Girls status.

Christina Hendricks is on the cover of New York Magazine baring (mostly) all and looking like a voluptuous lingerie-clad ice cream sundae:



Inside, she talks about the media focus on her body:

“It kind of hurt my feelings at first,” she says. “Anytime someone talks about your figure constantly, you get nervous, you get really self-conscious. I was working my butt off on the show, and then all anyone was talking about was my body!”

We kind of sensed that last year when we briefly interviewed her. It was one of those questions we had to ask or we wouldn't have felt we were doing our jobs, but we felt uncomfortable asking it. Not because we're prudes but because we would have much rather talked about her work as Joan and we sensed pretty strongly that she would have rather stayed on that topic too. But in pure Joan Holloway manner, she was game and dutifully answered our questions about how it felt to be the new poster child for the curvaceous woman.


Isn't it refreshing to see a major pair of tits that look like a couple of soft, inviting boob pillows instead of a couple of rigid tupperware bowls bolted on to her chest?

Whether she wants it or not (and with these pictures, it seems like she's coming to accept her role) Christina Hendricks has become a stand-in for the millions of women out there who want to see a body on their TV screens that looks more like their own. More importantly, she's sending a message that you can have a body like that and be unashamed, unapologetic, and most of all, sexy as all hell.

2010 SAG Awards

There's no such thing as a weekend when you've got awards show dresses to rip, kittens.

Anna Paquin in Alexander McQueen Spring 2010



First impression: good for her. Second: not formal enough for the event. We say "good for her" because it takes a certain amount of bravery to attempt a look as edgy as this in a sea of prom gowns. But it's more of a party dress than an awards show dress.

Christina Hendricks in Carolina Herrera Resort 2009



Exactly the right silhouette and proportions for her. The hair is a little aging and the makeup a little heavy but we love the earrings.

Jane Lynch in Ali Rahimi



A step in the right direction. She still needs to be directed away from the shiny and the voluminous skirts, but this neckline works much better on her than the last dress and the color flatters her.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus in Dolce & Gabbana



It's a lot of dress, but that's her thing. JLD has been turning it out on red carpets for 2 decades now and she doesn't disappoint. She knows how to wear a dress like this. Love these earrings too but we don't love the severe hair even though we know that's also her thing.

Kate Hudson in Emilio Pucci Spring 2010



It's pretty. She looks good and it fits her like a dream, but is all-white gonna be her thing now? Because that'll get old fast.

Mariah Carey in something that fits her



It fits her and that's all that matters. Brava, Mimi. Now, Christina Hendricks wants a meeting in the ladies room.

Meryl Streep in Balenciaga Fall 2009



People were divided over this on our Facebook page but we have to say, we love it. Remember, Meryl, for all her talent and fabulosity, has a TERRIBLE red carpet track record. This is something that looks colorful, fun, comfortable and flattering. Look at her face in that last pic! She looks amazing! Who cares if the print's a little much?

Penelope Cruz in L'Wren Scott Spring 2010



Jesus, honey. What is it with you and the funereal dresses lately? Hem's too long.

Dianna Agron in Edition by Georges Chakra Spring 2010



She is a really pretty girl, but
A) that lipstick shade is distractingly bad.
B) It looks like the curtains are opening on her breasts.

Drew Barrymore in Monique Lhuillier Spring 2009



What the what?

Drew? Why do you look like the biggest ho in the trailer park from the neck up? What is with that slept-on hair? What is with the nude lipstick? What is with taking a dramatic and unique dress and turning it into a stiff lampshade?

Lea Michele in Catherine Malandrino in Spring 2010



Wow. She looks spectacular. That is a fantastic color on her and the silhouette makes her body look amazing. Best effort yet from her. Hair and makeup? Flawless, bitch.

Marion Cotillard in Elie Saab Fall 2009 Couture



Marion, what happened? Where is the girl that wore a Gaultier fish dress to the Oscars? Who is this generic starlet we see in her place?

Sandra Bullock in Alexander McQueen



FINALLY!!

It would have been nice if, after all the free advice we gave her in the last couple of weeks - advice which she CLEARLY FOLLOWED - she could have held up a little sign or something that said "Thanks, T Lo! How do you bitches like me now?"

Sandy, you made us proud. Stick to floor-length sheaths like this. You know why? Because if you've got the body to pull one off, the only other skill you need is good posture. And that's about the only red carpet skill you have.

Tina Fey in Salvatore Ferragamo Fall 2009

What? Did she just stop by after attending her cousin's wedding? YOU'RE PRETTY, YOU'RE THIN, AND YOU HAVE MONEY. There is NO excuse for this.

Toni Collette in Rafael Cennamo

We like the bust (which is admittedly a little Wonder Woman-esque) but we're torn on the massive ruffled skirt. Lorenzo hates the look, but Tom thinks she looks younger and prettier than her last attempt on the red carpet, so he's inclined to give a thumbs up to the whole look.
