Seperated at birth?...
Blonde, bubbly, and more boyishly-figured than curvy, Kate Hudson and Cameron Diaz could be sisters seperated at birth. Both fun, giggly and a little goofy, they share a modern-hippie style and a penchant for mini's (they also share a great set of pins!) and musicians. They are both free-spirited and rock-and-roll/hippie-chick sexy. They also share a glow and a cheeky, i-have-a-secret smile, that light up a room and a movie screen; and their happy nature's seems to come not from a lack of depth, but rather, from a conscious choice to have fun and be positive!

Call me Yente...
So, let's meet the eligible bachelor's...
Adam Brody
Seth Rogen
Although he's only 25, Seth seems much older, and while he may not look like the 'perfect' guy for Mandy, we've seen he can make a mismatch work in his onscreen pairing with another statuesque beauty: Katherine Heigl, in the hilarious 'Knocked Up'. Seth is Jewish and definitely funny, though his often crass humour might be a bit much for seemingly sweet Mandy to take.
Bachelor #3
28-year-old, 6'3" tall, and funny John has already been engaged to Mandy in 'Licence to Wed', so it could be argued that if they didn't hit it off in that situation there's no spark between this lovely two-some. John's hobbies include flirting with Pam the receptionist and pulling pranks on Dwight...oh wait, thats Jim.
While Seth is the youngest of the three, he seems a lot older than his years; he is funny, Jewish, and down-to-earth which is a good match for Mandy's easy-going, nightlife shunning lifestyle. Seth may be not as typically attractive as John or Adam, but Mandy has stated and proven that looks aren't a factor for her. While not as tall as John, Seth is a perfectly respectable 5'11, a good 3 inches taller than Mandy (in flats). He's sweet, goofy and cuddly-perfect for Mandy to snuggle up with on her much loved nights at home. And although Seth's a little rough-around-the-edges, he might be just what Mandy needs to help her loosen up and lose some of her sugary-sweetness.

I miss...Ashlee Simpson's nose!
Ashlee Simpson, little sister to gorgeous-on-paper but pretty dull 'singer' and 'actress' Jessica Simpson, was once the perfect antidote to Jessica's polished-to-perfection image. Both Ashlee's vocal and facial 'flaws' merely added to her appeal, which was more raw and rough-around-the-edges than Jessica's, and her nose gave her face character that is lacking in many of todays carbon-copy starlets. It takes a lot of character to carry of a big nose: kudos to Chloe Sevigny, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Blake Lively, Sarah Jessica Parker and Claire Danes.
Then sadly, Ashlee got her nose 'fixed'. Probably a 'deviated septum':
Don't get me wrong, Ashlee is still gorgeous, maybe technically more so, but not in that uniquely pretty way that makes you look twice; she's lost that sparkle in her eyes, that special something, and now she kinda just looks like everyone else. So, I miss Ashlee Simpson's nose...

I Heart...Chloe Sevigny!
Style-wise, 33-year-old actress, designer and 'It' girl Chloe Sevigny is in a world of her own. She is a trendsetter, unafraid to break the rules, in fact, she makes the rules, and fashion-wise she is always 10 steps ahead of every other fashionaista. She is fearlessly original, effortlessly cool, and has style in the truest sense of the word.
Chloe has a unique beauty that is enhanced by her confident, rebellious sense of style and the way she rocks her assets and 'flaws' with equal aplomb. She is Hollywood's real-life Carrie Bradshaw: sometimes her fashion choices can leave a bad taste in your mouth, and she's not always beautiful, but that's not her objective, rather, she strives to and succeeds in expressing herself with veracity. She is always intriguing and never plays it safe at the expense of her self-expression.
Chloe's features, which could easily become plain on a woman of lesser character, are instead striking and oddly beautiful with her inherent style and deep, mysterious confidence to back them up. Her beauty is less American-girl than French chic, flawed but natural and accented by feminine confidence and inherent style. Whether in her style or choice of acting roles, Chloe does everything with a lemon twist: she is indie-cool yet not untouchable; her characters, though for the most part down-to-earth and relatable, tend to come with surprising quirks; and she is inherently feminine but with a slight masculine edge akin to that of Katherine Hepburn or Marlene Dietrich.
Chloe's acting choices echo her sense of style in their boundary-breaking boldness; in the shockingly raw 'KIDS', she played a HIV afflicted teen; in 'Brown Bunny' she performed fellatio on Vincent Gallo, blurring the lines between acting and porn, with many predicting her career would be over. In fact, her career has gone from strength to strength as she has recently expanded her repertoire to include mainstream and big-budget projects. After a guest spot on Will & Grace, she landed a leading role along Jake Gyllenhal in Zodiac. But the role she is now most widely known for is uptight housewife Nikki on the tv show 'Big Love'. Although, being Chloe, with whom nothing is without a subversive twist, Nikki isn't your everyday brand of stay-at-home mom, but the second of three wives in a polygamous marriage!
With legs to die for (mini's are her trademark-girlfriend knows how to flaunt her assets!), mysterious, heavy-lidded eyes and an impeccable carriage, Chloe is an inspiration for making the most of one's assets. She has the character to pull of her bold style and uses her flaws as assets to highlight her atypical beauty.
Chloe's courage, confidence and integrity come from the irrepressible trail-blazing, boundary-breaking spirit that is evident in all she does-whether in fashion, film, tv or life. She is the epitome of the 'It' girl, and a breath of fresh air in a fashion culture dominated by eager-to-please, cookie-cutter, zoe-bot celebri-tarts. Chloe's an acquired taste, but one worth aquiring, because love or hate her style choices, one thing she'll always be is utterly unique.
