I'm hoping it will be available in the next few days.

Whitney Port on Whitney Eve
StyleList: What's the inspiration for the second season?
Whitney Port: I combined my Los Angeles aesthetic and my New York aesthetic. I wanted to keep femininity, but mix it with a New York, streety edge. I played a lot with textures and classic silhouettes. There's a lot of sparkle and a lot of sequins – she's a glamorous rock-and-roll chick.
SL: You've been living in Manhattan for two years. What's your take on East Coast versus West Coast style?
WP: I think it's a lot more fashion forward here. Whereas New York is trendsetting, LA is trendy. New York is such a melting pot of cultures. Style is influenced by the world here, as opposed to the beachy vibe you get in Los Angeles.
SL: You've worked your way around the fashion industry, haven't you?
WP: I started at WWD as an intern, then I went to Teen Vogue and worked there as a fashion contributor, then to People's Revolution to do fashion PR, and then to Diane von Furstenberg. I decided that after all of those avenues, design was what I wanted to do and invested in myself and started this project.
SL: You called it a project.
WP: I kind of looked at it at first as an art project, just like a fun hobby, which is what I think a job should be. I started sourcing fabrics and making things that were pretty and beautiful that I would wear, and wasn't so savvy about the business of it. It's difficult – you do what you love and don't necessarily think of the business side of it. It's taken a bunch of people to reign me in, making it more affordable and accessible.
SL: So do you have any fashion regrets?
WP: The only thing that sticks out is this bright orange, kind of balloony, long-sleeve dress I wore that was forced on me, in a way. I wasn't strong enough to push back at that point. I've matured a little bit since then.

Lower East Side club the Eldridge turned into a literal "hot" spot during its Cinco de Mayo party after the air conditioner broke during Run-D.M.C. member Reverend Run's DJ set. "It got really sweaty inside," says a guest. "People were stripping down and getting half naked to keep cool." Cuddling in the corner drinking beer were "Real Housewives" star Kelly Bensimon (RHONY)and Whitney Port's ex-boyfriend, singer Jay Lyon.

Kristin Cavallari lets her guard down, calls fame 'lonely'
Those familiar with reality star Kristin Cavallari know that she's brutally honest and doesn't sugarcoat her feelings. That's probably contributed to an unflattering label she's had since starring on MTV's "Laguna Beach."
MTV even played off Cavallari's reputation as being mean when she joined "The Hills," after Lauren Conrad left the show. (Cavallari became a celebrity in 2004 when MTV tracked her high school love life and rivalry with Conrad on "Laguna Beach.")
Cavallari, 23, talked about being honest, tabloid stories about drug use and proving herself as an actress in a recent interview with The Associated Press.
AP: You became famous on MTV's "Laguna Beach" when you were in high school and quickly became an It Girl. What have you learned about fame?
Cavallari: It can be kind of lonely sometimes.
AP: Did you talk to Lauren Conrad before replacing her on "The Hills"? (Cavallari's first scene was showing up at the wedding of the series' duo, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt.)
Cavallari: No, I wasn't allowed to tell anyone I was coming to the wedding.
AP: And then you walked into the church by yourself and everyone looked surprised. Was that real?
Cavallari: I was so nervous walking into the church! I didn't know how everyone was gonna react. It ended up being OK. Even though you didn't see it on camera, Lauren and I actually walked out of the church arm and arm. Things were OK. (Laughs.)
AP: What did you think about MTV's ads when you joined "The Hills"? Are you OK with your reputation?
Cavallari: I'm definitely very honest. I go after what I want. . . . MTV actually asked me if they could do "the bitch is back" slogan and I said, "Of course." I mean I think it's funny, you know, it's a TV show and I want to have fun with it. And it's fun to play it up for the cameras, too.
AP: The new episodes of "The Hills" address a tabloid report that you were using drugs, which you've denied. What was that like?
Cavallari: It was very, very difficult. The thing is, it's one thing if it's just on the show, you know, fine, I understand the show needs drama and that's what it's about. But when it's in tabloids and it's starting to affect my personal life, it's not cool. And it was a very difficult thing for me to deal with. But at the same time, I feel like it was so stupid, and there really wasn't a story there, that it just died down. . . . It's just a stupid rumour. So, I'm not too worried about it.
AP: When you're auditioning for acting roles, do you feel you have more to prove because you come from a reality TV background?
Cavallari: I definitely feel like I have to prove myself 10 times more. Everyone assumes because I'm on a reality show I can't act. Which is fine. It's just another battle I have to fight.

Joined by Nana Pratt, Stephanie was more than happy to pose for the paparazzi outside the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles, sporting a beautiful white dress and beaded jewelry.
