Do you find that no matter how hard you try, you’re still not drinking enough water? I do! In an attempt to stay healthy and be kinder to the earth, many positive celebrities are choosing to hydrate in style with a reusable water container. My fondness for cool canteens started with a Sigg. The original and famous Swiss bottles are made from a single piece of pure aluminum. Gisele is often seen carrying her Sigg around New York!

They’re slick, seamless and durable…and now Sigg has launched an iPhone app that monitors your water intake. You can download the “SIGG – Stay Hydrated’ iPhone App here for free.

Then Mr H. lent me his Lifefactory glass bottle from Whole Foods and like Jessica Alba, I was hooked. It’s clear to see why!

Lifefactory fuses modern sensibility, eco-friendly composition and exceptional utility to produce safe glass baby and beverage bottles. Each bottle is wrapped in a brightly colored silicone sleeve and comes with a handy clip so you can attach it to your bag.

These clever glass bottles are chemical free and keep water tasting cleaner. I am gutted to have misplaced the blue one (identical to Reese Witherspoon’s) that I bought at Whole Foods in the U.S. as I am yet to find a stockist in the U.K.

Had I known about their baby bottles, I would have definitely invested…but I’m more than happy with Born Free glass baby bottles. Mr H. and I prefer the taste of glass and we knew our baby would too. The bottles and cups come with a special venting system that helps reduce colic and ear infections and are favoured by Matthew Mcconaughey and son Levi, as well as Nicole Richie and daughter Sparrow.

Jessica Biel has been spotted with a large mouth Klean Kanteen.

I recently picked up a 18oz Classic stainless steel Klean Kanteen with a sports cap at Jivamukti Yoga in London. It cleverly has their logo on the front and makes me think positive thoughts whenever I see it. Masaru Emoto would approve!

This is a celebrity trend that is not only easy to follow and eco-friendly, it’s also good for you! Disposable plastic bottles are derived from a potentially hormone-disrupting chemical BPA, which has been linked to increased fat formation and disrupted reproductive cycles — among other things.

Don’t get me wrong…skinny jeans aren’t going anywhere, but wide-leg pants are back and better than ever! These lightweight, relaxed fit pants are great for warmer weather (hey, a girl can dream, right?!)  I love this style because they’re just so versatile, classy and timeless.

Wide-leg pants are classy enough for the office but fresh enough for a night out on the town.

Try a wide-legged slouch pant or even a high-waist flare pant – both offer an effortless style.

One thing to be aware of, though — wide-legged pants can be difficult to wear so you must find the right style and size for your body type.

These stars are wearing their wide-legged pants right! Keep checking back to more of my fashion blogs right here at Positively Celebrity!

These days, it seems like if you’re a Disney star, you must also become a fashion designer. Everyone from Miley Cyrus to Selena Gomez (who just recently launched her clothing line) have all done it!

Another tween star has just crossed over into the fashion industry, and this time it’s Disney star Demi Lovato. Joining forces with Disney, Lovato has created D-Signed to be sold exclusively at Target.

Lovato says that her new line will be unlike any other tween designer’s clothing line.

D-Signed is inspired by her character’s wardrobe in “Sonny With A Chance” offering what would seem like outfits right out of Sonny Monroe’s closet.  The line will provide young girls with all their fashion needs from graphic tees, hip hoodies and cute skirts, to jewelry and bags.

Lovato’s new clothing line will hit Target racks this Sunday, August 1 for all of her fans to sport.

Check out her adorable video promoting the new clothing line!

Take a look at these celebs that have done it right!

Are you the plain-Jane type who sticks to the basics? Or are you the one who doesn’t know when too much is really too much?

It’s time to find your happy medium when it comes to the frills, the jewels and the bling.

Your outfit may be right, but if the accessories aren’t… then the outfit is all wrong. Remember less is sometimes more when your outfit is already stealing the spotlight.

Bold, bright and eye-catching jewels are considered statement pieces. They own the limelight so your outfit must take the back seat to your accessories. Never mix bold patterns and bright colors with overbearing jewelry.

Pick one or the other!  Don’t over do it by wearing all the summers hottest trends at once.   We have 365 days in a year so we don’t have to miss out on a single trend!

Las Vegas is cleaning up its act—literally—with bathhouse-inspired restaurant and nightclub Lavo.  With Black Eyed Peas Will.i.am at the DJ booth or surprise performances from Busta Rhymes, this club has had a long list of celebrity guests since it’s opening nearly two years ago.

The slew of stars that party here include Scarlett Johansson, Ryan Reynolds, Shannen Doherty, Angie Harmon, Selita Eubanks, Mario Lopez, Kim Kardashian, Kevin Connolly and Paris Hilton.

In Latin, ‘lavo’ means to bathe, therefore fitting that the Mediterranean styled space features water basins and mosaic tiling. The 4500 square foot nightclub features DJs Vice, Reach, Galleano and Berrie with a six nights a week from 10 PM to 5 AM.

Lavo is the newest nightclub from the innovators who brought Las Vegas Tao, another celebrity-friendly venue. You can find Lavo housed within the luxurious Palazzo Resort and Casino. This is the club to wash away your sins.

Fiji

Known for it’s great beaches, relaxation and surfing, Fiji is a celebrity favorite.  The island is also secluded, offering privacy from press and paparazzi.  In fact, Fiji is famous for “hiding” celebrities from the peering eye of the camera.

Fiji’s luxurious Wakaya Club features a small, eco-friendly “world apart” experience. It’s a “green” full-service spa and hotel, where stars can get pampered. Visitors like Tom Cruise, Penelope Cruz, Demi Moore and Oprah have all sunbathed on the hot white beaches of Fiji.

Hawaii

Closer to home for L.A. celebrities, the islands have been a huge attraction this summer.

Helen Hunt, with director beau Matthew Carnahan, played golf, went horse back riding and took in the romantic Hawaii sunsets.

Julia Roberts visited Maui with husband Danny Moder and children Phinnaeus and Hazel.  Australian actress, Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen with little Olive have been seen vacationing on the Island, playing in waves.

It’s not just a place for families though, High School Musical starlet, Ashley Tisdale celebrated her birthday with here.

Pierce Brosnan and Kelsey Grammer both own houses in Hawaii and often visit their home away from homes.

There are some Woody Allen movies that are so good, you can’t think of anything more endearing (Crimes & Misdemeanors, Annie Hall, Match Point, even Scoop). Unfortunately, there are also some that miss the mark so completely that you can‘t think of anything more frustrating (Deconstructing Harry, Celebrity, and his latest flop, Vicky Cristina Barcelona).

Vicky Cristina Barcelona is only mildly entertaining despite standout performances from Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem. The story sets up a love triangle by placing its protagonists, Vicky (Rebecca Hall) and Cristina (Scarlett Johansson) in Barcelona for the summer. Vicky is engaged to another American named Doug.

After meeting a Spanish painter named Juan Antonio (Javier Bardem), Vicky is unimpressed initially and further annoyed that her friend, Cristina, is swept away by his (not so) alluring charm. This soon changes after they spend a night out together and conclude the night making love. Vicky acknowledges the night as a mistake, but can’t stop thinking about Juan Antonio. The feeling is reciprocal, but Juan Antonio begins dating Christina because she is the ‘sure thing.’ To make matters more complex, Allen introduces his first love interest, Maria Elena (Penelope Cruz) into the proceedings, resulting in a three way love affair between her, Cristina, and Juan Antonio.

Maria Elena is just a little off her rocker. She attempts to kill herself unsuccessfully, before coming to stay with Juan Antonio (who by this time is living with his main squeeze, Cristina). A combustible situation like this can only last so long before blowing up and it does in a not so hilarious fashion.

The conclusion of this movie is so unsatisfying that I can’t put it into words. Also, I would have hated seeing this in the theater because the subtitles go by so fast that you can’t follow the Spanish being said. One of the best parts of the movie was Juan Antonio’s insistence that Maria Elena please speak English while staying in his house. That is about the only time I was sincerely amused. Oh well, Woody, I guess you can’t hit ‘em out the park every time.

Although the Internet has been flooded with reports claiming otherwise, it appears that Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady are not engaged, at least according to the couple’s families and close associates.

“We don’t know a thing about it,” Tom Brady Sr. told the Boston Globe.  “Nobody told me.  We talked to him and there’s nothing to say.  It’s rumor, rumor, rumor.”

The Brazilian model’s sister, Patricia, also disregarded the possibly-pending wedding, telling the Boston Herald it’s “not true.”

New England Patriots spokesman Stacey James told Usmagazine.com, “I heard the reports of the rumor, but I don’t know if they are true.  Tom likes to keep this private life private and I respect that.”

For the time being Gisele has not been sporting an engagement ring since the story broke.  Nevertheless, the couple and their families could be downplaying the story to allow for as much privacy as they can.

MTV’s The Hills stars, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, exchanged nuptials in a secret ceremony in Cabos San Lucas, Mexico, on Nov. 20, Us Weekly reports in its newest issue.

It wasn’t the first time the couple had wedding planning on their minds. In 2007, Pratt popped the question (after just eight months of dating) with a diamond-encrusted platinum band set with a purple stone that he’d purchased from the mall.

Montag broke it off after only a few months because Pratt apparently wasn’t ready to give up his bachelor lifestyle hitting on other women in a club.

“I’d just turned 21, and it was scary because I was so young,” Montag told Us following the split. But the pair gave it another (evidently successful) try in May 2008.

“The minute we said our vows, I couldn’t stop crying,” Montag, 22, tells Us.

Though, it seems that everyone in the family won’t be quite as thrilled about the nuptials, particularly Montag’s mom.

“I called her right before the ceremony, sort of hinted that something that happened, but her reaction was to ask me if we were breaking up! I told her it might be something else, and she said, ‘Well, if you ever plan on getting married just know that your stepdad is really upset that you want your father to walk you down the aisle,’” Montag tells Us.

“She was starting so much drama, it kind of pushed me toward wanting to get married without that,” she adds. “I don’t know when I’ll tell her.”
