Blake Lively & Ryan Reynolds Celebrate Wedding Anniversary

Monday was a very special day for Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds: It was the couple’s one-year wedding anniversary.

The notoriously private twosome, who wed on Sept. 9, 2012 at Boone Hall Plantation in South Carolina, were seen in Charleston and Savannah, Ga., over the weekend where they went out for lunch at a local eatery and were served traditional Southern foods such as fried chicken, biscuits, macaroni and cheese and meatloaf. So that’show Blake keeps her fab figure!

The former “Gossip Girl” star, who has taken some time away from acting, spends much of her time showing off her cooking skills, posing for the cover of magazinesand being fabulous at her husband’s many movie premieres.

Unfortunately for us fans, the 26-year-old and her Canadian hubby don’t pose together very often on the red carpet.

So, in honour of their anniversary, we take a look at their best style moments together, even when Ryan was still married to Scarlett Johansson. Also, is it just a coincidence that while they were celebrating, Ryan’s ex-wife announced her engagement?

Christian Louboutin Creates Shoe for Blake Lively?

Did Christian Louboutin create a shoe for Blake Lively?

Sort of.

The fashion loving US actress was thrilled when Christian Louboutin named a pair of shoes after her.

The ‘Gossip Girl’ actress – who married film star Ryan Reynolds last year – says the famous designer was so enamored with her, he named a pair of “beautiful” shoes in her honor.

She said: “I was in his atelier in Paris after going to the couture shows for the first time and I saw these shoes. I told him they were the most beautiful things I’d seen in my entire life. The colors reminded me of ‘The Wizard of Oz’, my favorite movie.

He pulled out a marker pen, wrote my name on them and told me they would be named after me.”

The 25-year-old beauty, who is known for her impeccable style, also says she understands what works for her better than anyone and doesn’t hire stylists to dress her for red carpet events.

She added: “It can be a lot of work but it’s creatively fulfilling and a form of self-expression. I look online to pull something together for an event.”

Blake Lively is having what she calls a princess day. It began with putting on fire engine red lipstick and a pretty Panama hat and crescendoed into a tour of the Prussian palaces of Potsdam and shopping for vintage dresses. She’s in Germany to visit her husband, actor Ryan Reynolds, who’s wrapping a movie in nearby Berlin, and the past four days have been all ripped jeans and dad’s old baseball cap—tomboy days, she calls them—but this Thursday, with castles to explore and kitschy East German boutiques to plunder, Lively is feeling decidedly flirtier.“I never think about how other people will respond to the way I dress,” she says. “Dressing up is all about reflecting how I feel,” she adds—not to satisfy paparazzi. If she’s lazy, she’ll throw on a slouchy sweater and L.L. Bean moccasins. And on an aforementioned princess day? “That could call for wearing something totally inappropriate, like a beaded purse and a gorgeous pair of crystal heels just to go to the grocery store.”

With six seasons of Gossip Girl sealing her It Girl status and roles in The Town and Savages proving her acting chops, the Burbank, California, native is feeling more crystal heels than moccasins lately. She’s still riding the high of her secret wedding to Reynolds last September and her recent appointment as the face and muse for Gucci Première perfume. She is lucky enough to call her favorite musician, Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine, a close friend, and when she can’t decide which shoes to wear, she simply texts Christian Louboutin for advice. (“I’m still geeked out,” she says. “I’m like, ‘Christian, when you texted me, I took a screen grab!’ It’s crazy!”) And despite the fact that she famously has no stylist right now, she remains one of the most-hunted targets on the red carpet. Her life, in some ways, is like a Disney movie.

Blake isn’t Pregnant

After tonnes of roumers that Blake and Ryan were expecting her first child, many people got really excited. The rumor first originated with OK magazine, who speculated that Blake may have been trying to hide a baby bump while walking a red carpet. Reynolds, who married Lively in September 2012, hasn’t been shy about wanting kids in the past.

The same goes for Blake, who has said that she would like to have a big family someday. Don’t start planning the baby shower just yet, though. According to Blake’s rep, there’s no bun in her oven. “The story is 100% false,” the rep tells the Daily News, “Blake is not pregnant.” So while it may happen down the line, those two aren’t set to become parents just yet.

Blake to star in Fifty Shades of Grey?

“Gossip Girls” stars, Leighton Meester and Blake Lively have both been eyed for the lead roles in the upcoming film adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey. While Blake has named the perfect actress for the part of Kate Kavanagh, Leighton Meester has been dubbed the perfect Anastasia Steele. Are these “Gossip Girls” really the most suitable to become the “Girls of the Grey brothers?”

Halfway through July and still no news of an official cast let alone an audition for “Fifty Shades of Grey.” Fans had been hoping for a cast since the announcement of Director Sam Taylor-Johnson joining the production team. Still, a cast has not been announced and fans are left to continue guessing who would be playing the lead roles of Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele.

Of course, web polls for the iconic parts in the film adaptation continue, the latest of which involves two stars from the series, “Gossip Girl.” The beloved series “Gossip Girl” may be over and done but the career of their lead stars namely Leighton Meester and Blake Lively are far from over.

Fans have eyed these beautiful ladies as potential candidates for the lead roles in the film adaptation of E.L. James best-selling erotica novel, “Fifty Shades of Grey.” Leighton Meester has been a long-time favourite for the protagonist, Anastasia Steele.

On the other hand, Blake Lively is a strong candidate for the part of Kate Kavanagh. Given their friendship off and onscreen, it’s not surprising that fans of “Gossip Girl” think that these two can play the part of Ana and Kate easily.

With Blake being blonde and Leighton a brunette, the physical characteristics between the actresses’ and their characters are right down to a pat.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds Spoil “Mum’s” with Gucci and Nobu

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds Spoil “Mum’s” with Gucci and Nobu

The couple are rumoured to have hit a rocky patch in their marriage, with insiders claiming that Gossip Girl beauty Blake is at her wits end over her hubby’s alleged controlling behaviour. However, despite the claims the married couple looked blissfully happy, according to eyewitnesses, as they spent an afternoon together taking their mums on a shopping spree and then a sushi dinner date to plush restaurant Nobu.

“They dined at Nobu in NYC with their mums,” an eyewitness told Life & Style.

“They were so cute!” An onlooker gushed, adding that “each mum was holding a bag from Gucci, like Ryan and Blake had taken them shopping before heading to Nobu.”

Blake has previously spoken about just how important Mother’s Day is to her family, admitting that if she ever missed the occasion, she would have hell to pay for.

“We still celebrate Mother’s Day. It’s like a national holiday in our family, so if I don’t fly home for Mother’s Day, I’m in huge trouble,” the actress admitted.

Despite the happy sighting of the couple, insiders have claimed all is far from well in their marriage and that Ryan has become a control freak, allegedly dictating what 25-year-old Blake wears and halting her work schedule.

“Ryan was very loving and sweet to Blake before they married,” a “friend” told In Touch magazine. “But not long after they said their vows, his demeanor started to change.”

Blake Lively talks to Elle Decor about her Kitchen

Blake Lively talks to Elle Decor about her Kitchen

Blake Lively has recently moved homes and is settling into married life with hubby Ryan Reynolds. The actress is featured in the latest issue of ELLE Décor, speaking about her new house.

Describing her new pad, she says: “The location is great. And we loved the kitchen. It’s really the family room.”

She also confesses that she has some competition when it comes to using the oven too. Whilst she says that she uses it the most, she adds “But I’ll have to fight my mom for it. She is an amazing chef. We’ve got a big family, and we’re very close. My brothers are great at the pies and the girls usually do the savory things.”

When it came to the design of her house, she did it herself and trusted her instincts. “You have to go with your instinct. If you don’t try it, you end up doing it later anyway, and then you end up paying to do it twice! There are things that I just have to try. And yes, sometimes it doesn’t work, but I really think you should just do what makes you happy.”

Picking a color was the hardest decision to make though, and while she considered fuchsia and oxblood, she eventually settled on ‘ocean blue’ (a hue that, incidentally, is not listed on the La Cornue website, so may be a custom shade). ‘I wanted something daring but also timeless,’ she explained. ‘I wanted to feel like I could change up other parts of the kitchen and the oven would remain classic.

‘At first I thought a fuchsia or oxblood, but the blue seems like a bold color that’s still grounded, because it has a little bit of a grey undertone.’

Classic it may be, but a blue range is still a bold choice, indicating that Ms Lively is prepared to take the same risks with her home as she is with her fashion choices. ‘You have to go with your instinct,’ she advised. ‘If you don’t try it, you end up doing it later anyway, and then you end up paying to do it twice!  ‘There are things that I just have to try. And yes, sometimes it doesn’t work, but I really think you should just do what makes you happy.’

Blake Lively supports Gucci’s Chime for Change

Blake Lively joins Halle Berry and Zoe Saldana to support Gucci’s Chime for Change campaign. Other stars to lend their voice to the campaign include Katy Perry, Freida Pinto, Evan Rachel Wood, Olivia Wilde and Jada Pinkett Smith – who have all united in a new video to declare that “anything is possible for women around the world.” In the short clip, the ambassadors highlight “three of the most powerful tools a woman can have to help change the world”: education, health and justice.

Ambassadors and co-founders include Beyoncé Knowles, Salma Hayek and Frida Giannini. Knowles reveals that she tells her daughter every day that she could be President (“I know she has no idea why I’m saying that – she’s one year old and I’m like: ‘You know you could be President'”). Berry talks about what inspires her, while Perry and Pinkett Smith praise the impact of social media, and Giannini emphasises the importance of being a role model to future generations.

The Chime for Change campaign, spearheaded by Gucci, aims to raise funds and awareness of women’s issues globally. The Italian fashion house are making a name for themselves with their charitable work of late, also unveiling the new Gucci Timepieces and Jewellery’s UK Music Fund project earlier this month. As well as launching a limited-edition watch, boasting the engraving Gucci Music Fund, the company are giving career-boosting opportunities to young British music talent.

A charity concert in aide of the project, Sound of Change Live, will be held at Twickenham Stadium on June 1st 2013.

In other news… Blake IS dating Leo!! The couple have been nearly inseparable since May, when they’ve taken their newfound romance on an international tour de love.

Since becoming inseparable after attending the Cannes Film Festival together just one month ago, Leo has romanced Blake in Monte Carlo, France, Portofino, Italy and now, the idyllic California resort town of Carmel; the two first were seen hanging out with friends back in November.

But we worry, is she just using Leo as a rebound romance after breaking up with longtime boyfriend Penn Badgley, or do she and Mr. DiCaprio actually have a genuine shot at love?
