When Erika Christensen isn’t hard at work filming NBC’s Parenthood, there’s one place the actress can’t help but spend her time: Browsing the racks at secondhand stores! “You can find incredible things — it’s like this diamond in the rough experience,” explains the actress, whom Us Weekly named to its 2013 Hot Hollywood Style list in April. “It’ll be pretty easy, because I’ll go by fabric: flip through the rack like, ‘Polyester, polyester, polyester . . . Oh, silk! Amazing!’” Opting to skip high-end resale stores and curated boutiques in favor of thrift stores, Christensen, 30, jokes to Us that her wardrobe vice is sweaters, and when she shops, she’s “always on the hunt for a good knit.” Among some of her favorite resale finds? High-waisted Versace jeans and an Escada motorcycle jacket. “I will wear that jacket as much as I can for the rest of my life,” says Christensen of the topper, which features an asymmetrical zipper. Largely sticking a ’40s silhouette when dressing up, Christensen says she’s adopted a more feminine style — and color palette — over the years. “As a little girl I really hated pink, for instance, and I didn’t like wearing dresses,” recalls the actress. “I didn’t want to be a girly girl then, but now I love being a girly girl!” Calling Kate Moss a style icon, Christensen says her everyday style is more relaxed and, at times, menswear-inspired. “I’ve found that a lot of my male friends have great style and great appreciation for designers,” explains the Parenthood star. “The equestrian thing has been huge and I love that. I have so many pairs of riding pants that are from the store at the stables in Burbank where you can go ride your horse at,” she tells Us. “I don’t ride a horse but I do wear the pants! I love them!” |

NBC has picked up five of its most valuable performers for the 2013-14 season. On Friday, the network handed out early renewals for Revolution, Grimm, Law & Order: SVU, Chicago Fire and Parenthood. From J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot and Warner Bros. TV, Revolution ranks as NBC’s top scripted drama across all of primetime — averaging more than 6 million viewers in the advertiser-coveted adults 18-49 demographic. Critical darling Parenthood will return for a fifth season. The perennial bubble show proved its worth this past season on Tuesday nights, where the network struggled to find a replacement after the Jason Katims ensemble wrapped its abbreviated 15-episode run. Ending early to allow room for the second and expanded season of Smash, the Broadway drama tanked in its return and was banished to Saturdays. Reality dating series Ready for Love followed in the slot and was canceled after two episodes. Like Grimm, Revolution, Chicago Fire and SVU, Parenthood — which comes with a pricey and sizable cast — will be back for a full season of 22 episodes. |
