Star Style: Jenna Dewan (InStyle magazine)

I really love this Carolina Herrera burgundy V-neck spaghetti strap dress that actress Jenna Dewan wore in her InStyle magazine photo shoot. It's a simple yet classic style that's just so effortlessly chic and glamourous. The stylist paired the dress with equally simple yet stylish black Christian Louboutin heels which really completes the look. And since this is such a classic style, you can find affordable versions of this look.

Beauty: Jenna Dewan's Favorite Beauty Products (Glamour magazine)

According to the Glamour magazine article Jenna Dewan Drops Her Skin Care Routine, actress and dancer Jenna Dewan likes to unwind with a “witchy bath” at night. “I use all kinds of essential oils, Epsom salt, and some lighted candles. The sage is going; it's a whole vibe for me at night in my baths. I love all my spiritual stuff, and I love meditating.”

Aside from taking "witchy baths", Jenna likes to take good care of her skin. As a teen she struggled with acne and as an adult she's dealing with discoloration and melasma. “Skin care has always been a true passion of mine,” she says. “I need multifunctional products and a routine that's not going to be too complicated but will do all the things that I need and really work.”

Below is a list of some of her favorite beauty products for skin discoloration and brightening (along with her comments):

Book of Interest: Gracefully You

I don't usually buy a lot of lifestyle books let alone celebrity ones mainly because most of their lifestyles are unrelatable. However, I think Gracefully You by Jenna Dewan seems interesting. And after looking at a few sample pages I wouldn't mind reading it and seeing what else is in the book.

Beauty: Hairstyles That I Love: The Bob

A hairstyle that I've always loved is the Bob. I had my hair cut into this style a few times especially after my hair would grow out a little too long. It's one of my favorite go to styles. I like the bob because it's a style that is so versatile and easy to wear. From curly to straight or short to mid-length, it always looks amazing. It's a statement-making cut but it also has this casual understated feel to it as well.

Lois Lane Friday: Lois Lane is Finally Appearing on The CW's Arrowverse (and Who I Think Should Be Cast)

I can't believe Lois Lane is finally going to appear on The CW's Arrowverse shows. This news is super exciting, no pun intended. It was announced earlier this week that Superman (Tyler Hoechlin) will return for the DC Comics crossover event for Arrow, The Flash and Supergirl TV series and joining him will be Lois Lane.

According to reports, the crossover will be for three nights starting Sunday, Dec. 9th with The Flash at 8 PM. With the story continuing with Arrow on Monday, Dec. 10th at 8 PM and ending with Supergirl on Tuesday, Dec. 11th at 8 PM.

There have been a lot of speculations and fancast as to who should be the legendary tenacious reporter. For me, I would love to see Jenna Dewan as Lois. Okay, I know what you're going to say "she has already played Lucy Lane". Yes, that's true, she was cast as Lois' younger sister but stay with me, it can still work. Especially since the last time Lucy was seen was during the first season of Supergirl. The only thing that would be needed to make the change is for Jenna to wear a long wig. And there could be a running gag of sorts about how much Lois resembles her younger sister Lucy.

I watch a lot of old TV shows and the one thing that I noticed is that there were some actors who played more than one character on a series. Yeah it was a few guest appearances here and there until some possibly receiving a more permanent role in the series. And I don't see why Jenna couldn't do the same with Lois. She's a good actor and could easily pull off the role as the tough as nail reporter. I know this will never happen but I just thought I would put my two cent out there about who should be cast as Lois Lane.
