11 Biggest Restaurant Pet Peeves

Dining out is a special treat, but sometimes it can be more annoying than slaving over a hot stove at home. Our iVillage members share their biggest restaurant pet peeves.

Turquoise Takes Charge

The past few weeks I've noticed one of my (and my mother's) absolute favorite colors coming back in style -- turquoise! The stars have been sporting it full-force all over the red carpet and looking fierce.

Newlywed (and preggers) reality star Kendra Wilkinson recently sported this sexy little one-shouldered number that showed off her figure (pre-bump), and former reality stars Stephanie Pratt and Tori Spelling also recently slipped on this bold red carpet color. Turquoise looks rockin' on every complexion and hair color (trust me, I know, I'm a red head and can pull off this fab color) and definitely brightens up any look.

But if you're hesitant about trying it out why not start out small. Turquoise jewelry and accessories are a great way to accent any style without it being overpowering. Love it!

Celeb Bikini Bods

Even with Michael Jackson monopolizing the tabloid covers this past week, the "weeklies" still managed to sneak in their favorite story -- hot/not celebrity bikini bods (beach bods). Now in an age when most Americans are gaining weight (thanks McDonalds!) or are obsessed with their weight these stories aren't really helping matters. But then the tabs go and find young starlets, like Stephanie Pratt (whom I loathe calling a starlet) and put her on the cover saying she got an eating disorder only once she got into the Hollywood spotlight. I think Hollywood and the tabloids really make us crazy about our weight. Every week I see articles picking apart celeb bodies for cellulite, jiggly thighs and lumpy tushies. Well, welcome to reality, they're just brave enough to put it out there. Are you fed up with the tabs' coverage of celebrities' body parts?

Madonna: Sticky and Sweet

We might have lost the King of Pop, but the Queen of Pop (Madonna) is still going strong into her 50s and has just started the second leg of her Sticky and Sweet tour. She kicked off her tour on July 4th in London (kinda ironic) and this second half will now include some hot new costumes! These super new, super couture costumes (including one with a Goth/bondage twist and a new dress) are right from hands of Givenchy Haute Couture’s Riccardo Tisci and were specially designed just for her Madgesty. So for those lucky enough to check out Madonna keep your eyes peeled!

Exciting news for all you Gossip Girl junkies. (and fashion junkies). We've known for a while that fabulous designer-to-the-stars Anna Sui is partnering with Target for the second Designer Collaborations series (after Alexander McQueen), but Anna's series will actually be based on the four main (and very different) stylish stars of GG -- Blair, Serena, Jenny and Vanessa. Expect to see metallic jacquards, herringbone, silk and chiffon and detailing with tulle, lace and sequins that represent all four characters and all different elements of the city! Now you can actually channel your inner Blair or rock out to inner Vanessa. Or maybe hit up your secret bad-gal Serena style! It's all in the clothes...Check them out at Target starting September 13.

Farrah Fawcett (1947-2009)

It's been a rough couple of days for Hollywood. First everyone's favorite sidekick Ed McMahon passed away and then the double-whammy of Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett in one day. If one hairdo could define a generation it was Farrah's fluffy blond locks. Plus the blond bombshell was well-known for her role as Jill Munroe on the 70s cult classic Charlie's Angels. Her red bathing suit pin-up poster is still the best-selling of all time, making her an international sex symbol! She was also nominated for several Golden Globe and Emmy awards making her not only a very pretty face, but a very talented actress as well. It's been tough watching both the tabloids and TV news document Farrah's ongoing battle with cancer, but it shows just how tough she was. Just like Michael and Ed, Farrah and her million dollar smile will be missed!
