The New Girl

Posted Dec 28 2007 @ 07:59 AM

One of Hollywood's new "it" girls, Kristen Bell was spotted Friday, December 21 in Los Angeles while getting her Saturn SUV serviced with new boy toy Dax Shepard. Unlike the rest of Hollywood starlets, Bell obviously opted not to try for that "sophisticated chic" look, which has fast become the must have look of the season. Instead, KB decided to go with a more casual and relaxed look on her day of errands. Bell sported a pair of loose fit destroyed denim (check out True Religion's Bobby Heritage Big T Jean in Medium Motor) over a pair of beat up brown winter boots. On top, Kristen sported a loose fitting and lightweight black knit jacket (similar to both Ecoganik's Fleece Wide Collar Coat in Black). Bell completed her look with an oversized weathered black handbag (check out Aaneta's Fortuna Handbag in Black). After dropping her car off, Bell proceeded to hop into Dax's pickup truck and headed for a bite to eat at Vivian's Café in Los Angeles. After meeting Dax at the Las Vegas opening of hip sushi eatery Koi, Kristen and Dax have been seen spending a lot of quality time together. Although Bell refused to comment on whether there is or isn't anything going on between the two, it looks to be almost a sure thing. Bell has become one of Hollywood's latest "it" girls after earning roles on two of the hottest shows around, "Heroes" and "Gossip Girl". However, with the writers strike still going strong, neither show is currently filming. A "big network" has taken advantage of the success of "Gossip Girl" and the writer's being on strike, however. Rumor has it that a casting company is currently seeking a group of NYC students to create a reality show based on the same idea as Gossip Girl. Are we about to have a new Heidi and LC on our hands? I think so, except this time I hope they will have a little more taste!
