And the Golden Popcorn Goes To…

With the Cannes Film Festival but a distant memory, it’s a great treat to have the MTV Movie Awards to keep the style flowing.  The awards are always fun to watch, as the stars are always unpredictable and dressed to the nines.  This year’s show definitely didn’t disappoint with a heavy emphasis on short and sexy to celebrate the summer.

Ever the style icon, Reese Witherspoon looked stunning in Zac Posen leopard print mini dress to pick up her MTV Generation award.  The Water for Elephants starlette finished her look with a pair of nude platform heels, a gold bangle bracelet, a pair of diamond stud earrings and of course her diamond engagement ring. Blake Lively looked fresh from her European vacation with new beau, Leonardo DiCaprio, in a figure hugging Michael Kors cobalt blue dress and eggplant Christian Louboutin heels.  To complete her look, Livley chose a stack of sparkling bangles to add that extra little style.  With the last installment of the Harry Potter films premiering next month, actress Emma Watson chose a fun and flirty Marchesa white mini dress and silver Brian Atwood pumps.   Adding to her shimmering look was a simple diamond bangle bracelet, a pair of delicate drop earrings and a diamond ring.

After meeting the Biebers in Canada, Selena Gomez was beaming with the look of love.  Gomez chose a printed floral top and a fitted skirt by Giambattista Valli mini skirt to complete her look.  Completing her look was the pair of gold hoop drop earrings.  The always stylish Leighton Meester went with the philosophy that all that glitters in her metallic Balmain mini dress, Pierre Hardy sandals and Bulgari earrings and ring.  Also choosing to go with a metallic frock was Mrs. Andy Roddick, Brooklyn Decker, who donned a No. 21 gold sparkling dress that she paired with a pair of black Walter Steiger pumps.  Finishing her look was the House of Lavande ring and of course her engagement ring.  Also sporting a new diamond engagement ring was Twilight actress, Nikki Reed, who wore a sheer black halter gown with metallic clutch.  Reed has now begun planning to exchange vows and wedding bands with her boyfriend of only a few months, American Idol alum Paul McDonald.  Will art imitate life with her costar, Kristen Stewart accepting an engagement ring proposal from boyfriend, Robert Pattinson, with the coy couple walking down the aisle soon as well?

Just in Time for Spring, a little Celebrity Wedding Band Bling!

With Spring in the air, what better time to celebrate a celebrity wedding?!  The much anticipated nuptials of Reese Witherspoon and her CAA agent fiancé went off without a hitch on March 26th at the actress’ Ojai, CA ranch.  Being her second time down the aisle, Witherspoon was thinking pink when she chose a custom Monique Lhuillier gown to celebrate the occasion.  Daughter Ava, from her previous marriage to Ryan Philippe, served as the Maid of Honor also wearing a Monique Lhuillier dress.  Son Deacon, also from her first marriage, served as the Ring Bearer who had the important job of carrying the couple’s wedding bands from the William Goldberg Diamond Corporation.  To accompany her stunning 4-carat diamond engagement ring, Witherspoon now has a large pave diamond wedding band to add to her collection.  With her acting career in full force and his client list with CAA, they are definitely a Hollywood couple that is a force to be reckoned with.

Seems like Michael Bublé is going to need to change the lyrics to his song, “Haven’t Met You Yet, as the Canadian singer took a trip down the aisle not once but twice last week when he married his girlfriend, actress Luisana Lopilato in her native Argentina.  Argentina has special meaning for the couple, as Bublé presented Lopilato a diamond engagement ring in front of her family there back in 2009.  After Thursday’s civil wedding ceremony, the couple exchanged wedding bands a second time on Saturday in front of 300 of their closest friends and family.  Believe it or not, but the couple is even planning a third wedding ceremony in May for Bublé’s family in Vancouver.  I wonder if they will buy each other three separate anniversary bands to celebrate each event?!

Also tying the knot over the weekend was former Alias star, Michael Vartan who married his girlfriend of the past two years, Lauren Skaar.  Unlike most Hollywood couples, Vartan and Skaar met while shopping at Whole Foods in LA.  The actor presented his blushing bride with a diamond engagement ring during a trip to New York last year.  The couple exchanged vows and wedding bands in front of friends and family at The Resort at Pelican Hill in Newport Beach, CA.  The bride wore a Vera Wang dress that she customized herself at her own bridal shop, L’atelier Couture in MN and the groom of course wore a signature Giorgio Armani tux.  Among those in attendance was Vartan’s former costar, Victor Garber, who served as a groomsman.  What better way to kick of Spring than with a California beach side wedding?!

Does Reese have an Engagement Ring on her Finger or is this Another Tease?

On Wednesday Reese Witherspoon was spotted in LA wearing what looked like a gold designer engagement ring according photos snapped by Paparazzi.

But according to Access Hollywood, Reese is not engaged to boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal and the bling in question is not a designer engagement ring.

A source said, “Reese looked delighted, and she was definitely showing off the ring. She kept holding her finger up for people to see, she even flashed it around when she was getting in her car.”

The couple, who met on the set of the 2007 film “Rendition,” have been fending off marriage rumors for quite a while. This is not the first time it has been reported the couple-who began dating in 2007-are planning to marry. Earlier this year, Jake was spotted ring shopping in New York. In March, it was claimed Reese removed a sparkly band during a photo shoot as she didn’t want people to know she was planning to walk down the aisle.

Could Jake be working on surprising Reese anytime soon, or are we going to have to keep speculating?!
