I recently found out that Jonathan Antin, founder and creator of Jonathan Product, and the star of the TV reality show Blow-Out, is releasing a new hair care line called Ionic Balance.

The idea is to help treat those with damaged, super dry and over-processed hair. The key ingredients are tourmaline and amethyst which are believed to help fight frizz, increase circulation to the scalp and roots of the hair and add shine. The line is comprised of a four step process which begins with an: IB Purifier Anti-Aging Restorative Shampoo, $24, Conditioner, $28, an IB Shield Humidity Lock-Out Shine Spray, $32 and an IB Revitalizer Overnight Oil Treatment Spray, $44.

Everything is extremely light and all the products are vegan and sulfate free. The first product to be launched will be the Shield (later this month) and everything else will be released in his salon and online in August.

*Fab here! I am sad to announce this will be the last bella post on Fab - but no fear - BellaSugar is here!

This Fab Finding takes me back to when I was a budding grad from The Fashion Institute in NYC. Who knew I would end up a fashion blogger?! The lesson to be learned: everyone has a path, there are ups and downs, but keep your chin up and have fun along the way! Oh, and try to treat yourself to fabulous shoes once in a while, like these Rock & Republic Catherine Stiletto in Black Gingham, $345.

A reader recently wrote in requesting help to find a lovely look for her to host her grad party in. Her requirements were that the outfit be comfortable - she will be the hostess with the mostess and running all over the place. You all went Fab Finding for a comfortable graduation hostess outfit. To see all the the graduate fab finds click here. And...congrats to our fashionista graduate!

The chic handbags, shoes and frocks in Yves Saint Laurent's 57th Street Paris boutique were not alone last night. Stars like Natalie Portman, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Elijah Wood, Catalina Sandina Moreno, all in the upcoming movie, "Paris Je t'aime," gathered at the store for a soiree to celebrate the opening of the flick, which is now showing in the Paris Theatre. I must say, Natalie Portman looks so much like the actress she is always compared to: Audrey Hepburn. So ladylike yet modern!

It was said that a portion of the proceeds from sales of the YSL Downtown Totes, $1,095, will go to the Anthology Film Archives.

To encourage you all to go go green, I thought it would be timely to share with you these Plates with Purpose, $36-$88. These are not your average plates. Each one, whether it's 5x10, 9" or 14", is made of post-industrial/pre-consumer recycled glass, which means, unlike the glass plates you have sitting in your cabinet right now, it won't take a million years to decompose. With these unique plates, you can eat more comfortably knowing you're helping the environment. Plus, they're dishwasher and microwave safe. YumSugar would love these. Chic and beneficial - tres genius!

Since their launch in April 2006, Glimpse's mission has been to create a fun and easy place for women to shop online for clothes, shoes, beauty, jewelry and home decor. Mission accomplished! The site works with retailers such as Neiman Marcus, Banana Republic, Macy's, Sephora, eLuxury and brands like 7 for All Mankind, Marc by Marc Jacobs, DKNY and Manolo Blahnik to bring you exactly what you're looking for.

Say you're in need of a shirtdress, all you have to do is type "shirtdress" in the search box and voila! If it pulls up too many results, you can narrow the search by price, brand and stores. My only complaint about the search is that when I typed "black shirtdress" nothing came up. But when I input "black blouse," I got a bunch of black blouses. So it can be semi-inconsistent that way.

They also have features like "Trend Alert" and "Celebrity Style" in which they suggest items that are must-haves or that resemble pieces that a particular star wore.

So what are you waiting for - go to the site and catch a glimpse of pretty things that are calling your name! And a big thanks to SFKitkat for introducing us to the site!

All I can say is: Ali Larter is a bona fide hottie - and doesn't she know it! Only a girl with confidence can wear such a provocative dress with ease (and some pretty nipple control!). While I have no complaints about this look - from the tousled hair and vixen red lips to the criss-cross platforms - the dress is no doubt risque. I have found a similar dress that is a bit more down-to-earth. In the meantime, feast your eyes on this femme fatale.

The smell of orange always makes me feel good. It's light, crisp and clean - all great things for Spring. These new, yummy orange body washes are refreshing pick me ups for your morning ritual shower. Lather up, take a deep breath and let the natural exfoliants and aromas of oranges work their magic. If you are as big of an orange fan as I am, you might also be interested in some orange scented perfumes.

Red Flower Italian Blood Orange Cleansing Body Wash, $20, is an oh so good smelling pure botanical body wash. It is made from flower extracts, plants and essential oils, that help nourish the skin. It is also made with honey to soften, Vitamin C to help exfoliate and tomato leaf to detoxify. This is a gentle cleanser that can be used daily.

I give Enoel much props for having the courage to post this 60s flower child pinup look! She looks absolutely darling in her one-piece vintage bathing suit, and the colors match perfectly with her honey skin. And the hair is so Farrah Fawcett from Charlie's Angels - one of my fave shows!

Here's what she has on:

• Bathing Suit: De Weese
