"Jake favors casual t-shirts, Bermuda shorts, loose fitting jeans, and hooded sweatshirts. Sticking to black, white, and muted shades, he doesn’t draw attention to himself with vibrant colors or flashy styles. Often looking more like a college frat boy or a Santa Monica surfer dude, he clearly dresses for comfort and function. To achieve this easy- going California style, keep it simple with a white v-neck t-shirt, a slouchy black zippered sweatshirt, and a baggy pair of knee-length shorts. Loose fitting sweat pants, chinos, or dark jeans are also perfect for a casual lunch or a shopping excursion. Footwear choices can include slip-on sandals, flip-flops, or a pair of Vans sneakers".

"Sometimes a fake is easy to spot. For example, there is a photograph where Jake Gyllenhaal sits on a white wooden chair, seemingly wearing a pair of black leather pants. However, the light falls on his upper body from a different direction than on the leather pants. In addition, there are differences in contrast and tone between the leather pants and the rest of the photograph.Jake Gyllenhaal in "Dazed & Confused" photoshoot.
The basis for the fake is a photograph of Jake that appeared in the issue number 98 of the “Dazed & Confused” magazine in February 2003. Somebody pasted the leather pants afterwards. Sometimes a fake is a bit harder to spot. For example, there is a photograph where Jake Gyllenhaal stands with his hands behind his head, seemingly wearing a pair of black leather pants".

James Dean made fashion history as one of the celebrities responsible for putting denim into fashion. He again made fashion history half a century later in 2006, when his Lee jeans were auctioned off for $35,850.
Where did the name Denim Jeans come from?
The Serge de Nîmes fabric was originally a wool silk mix, twill weave. By the 19th century in England, denim had a white warp and a navy woof (weft). Denim was considered a hard wearing sturdy fabric, ideal for heavy labouring.

Film Stars Influence Denim Jeans in the 1950s
Once film stars like Marlon Brando or James Dean sported them, they became desirable internationally in the 1950s and are associated with rock and roll and pop music.

By the 1980s, ripped, frayed and torn jeans were a normal sight. Coloured jeans from white through to pastels were also popular as were stonewashed blue jeans.
Lycra in Jeans
The 1990s saw some changes such as denim with an added percentage of Lycra to enhance fit and comfort. Jeans with lycra are very comfortable. They fit and cling around the buttocks in a way that accommodates less than perfect figures.
Jeans After the Millennium
The Earl jeans were superior to any Armani styles and this is the key to jeans - trying different types even in the same size. Feel the quality of the denim, look for deep dyeing and pre washing to avoid excessive dye loss when you launder.
You also can find in the net a selection available of men's pants: Casual Pants, Comfort Waist, Dress Pants and Jeans with good prices, and nice appearance of quality.
Michelle Williams attending the New York premiere of "Shutter Island" on 18th February 2010.
"Oscar-nominated actress Michelle Williams is circling one of the three lead roles in Noah Baumbach's "The Emperor's Children." Jennifer Jason Leigh and Noah Baumbach at 'Margot At The Wedding' Movie Screening in 45th New York Film Festival 2007.
The Oscar-nominated "Greenberg" filmmaker has already adapted Claire Messud's 2006 best-selling novel about a trio of Brown University graduates struggling to make something of themselves as they approach their 30s burdened with lofty expectations. The novel was set in New York in the months leading up to and following 9/11. Michelle Williams gives daughter Matilda a piggyback ride around their Brooklyn neighborhood, February 2010.
Williams would likely be playing the character of Danielle Minkoff, a TV documentary producer from the Midwest, though the actress' representation at CAA would not comment to TheWrap. There is no deal in place yet, but insiders confirm that Williams has met with Baumbach about the role. Noah Baumbach and Ben Stiller at the Hollywood premiere of the ''Greenberg'' at the ArcLight Cinemas on March 18, 2010
Furthermore, Baumbach's recent attachment to the family friendly Ben Stiller vehicle "Mr. Popper's Penguins" raises questions as to whether "The Emperor's Children" will be his next film.
TheWrap previously broke the news that Keira Knightley, Eric Bana and Richard Gere are attached to star in the dramedy. I've been a huge fan of Williams since her days on "Dawson's Creek" and firmly believe that she is one of Hollywood's best actresses under 30 years-old, if not the very best.
Williams most recently played Leonardo DiCaprio's wife in Martin Scorsese's "Shutter Island." She recently re-teamed with her "Wendy and Lucy" director Kelly Reichardt for the period film "Meek's Cutoff" and is already earning Oscar buzz for her performance in Derek Cianfrance's "Blue Valentine" opposite Ryan Gosling".

The new poster for the upcoming comedy/drama Greenberg has appeared online. Roger Greenberg (Ben Stiller) is at a crossroads in his life. Out of a job and none too interested in finding one, he agrees to housesit for his younger and more successful brother, thereby getting a free place to stay in Los Angeles. Once settled in, Greenberg sets out to reconnect with his old friend and former bandmate Ivan (Rhys Ifans). But times have changed, and old friends aren’t necessarily still best friends, so Greenberg finds himself spending more and more time instead with his brother’s personal assistant Florence (Greta Gerwig), an aspiring singer and herself something of a lost soul. As their relationship develops through a series of embarrassingly awkward romantic encounters, even someone as irascible as Greenberg might have at last found a reason to be happy.
Noah Baumbach serves as both director and writer for the movie, while Scott Rudin produces the film. Source: www.filmofilia.com

"Wanting to be somebody else is a waste of the person you are." "It's better to be hated for what you are, than loved for what you are not." - Kurt Cobain.
Kurt Cobain commited suicide on this day in 1994. Kurt Cobain, who shot himself 16 years ago yesterday, at the age of 27, so bow your head in reverence, was a prolific musician, and not just when he formed his iconoclastic band Nirvana. This fact was proven when 30 tracks, recorded on cassettes, were unearthed and then purchased at a garage sale in Washington state. Quick, someone call Courtney Love. Honestly, she has probably already unleashed the dogs (ahem, her lawyers) on the poor chap! Apparently, the initials "KDC " were inscribed on the tapes with black marker. The man who bought the tapes retained a lawyer, contacted Cobain’s estate and his record label and the tapes were verified as being from Cobain. For those keeping score at home, "KDC " stands for "Kurt Donald Cobain." Frances Bean Cobain, daughter of Kurt Cobain.
The fine folks at NPR have theorized that the tapes were recorded before Cobain even hit double digits in age, since some of the titles reference the years 1974 and 1975. There is even a ukulele version of "The Joker", the famed Steve Miller band anthem2. Source: www.artistdirect.com
