Pia Toscano and Leven Rambin were both spotted stepping out in the Woodleigh Zoe design for a casual, on-the-go look. While the two may have chosen the same dress, they definitely added their own personal flair to the frock, rocking it in their own unique way.

The American Idol contestant looked gorgeous in this casual striped dress, which she chose to pair with some over-the-knee, black boots for a very sexy yet edgy vibe. Pia also dresses it up with some simple accessories, including a pair of aviators and a black belt. I love the way the belt highlights her frame and accentuates her curves.

Leven chose to rock the same frock, adding her own flair to it for quite a different look. The blond bombshell adds some cute accessories, including an artsy necklace and tan, strappy sandals.

Both stars left their long tresses down and simple.

While Leven spices up the look with some accessories, I’m not so sure I dig her choice of shoes or the bulky necklace on this high-collared dress. Pia without a doubt wins this one for me. The belt is the perfect staple to this effortless dress and the boots give it some an edgy vibe!

There’s no denying the fact that Jennifer Lawrence did a phenomenal job playing Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games, which is why we were shocked and disappointed to hear that critics were taking a stab at her body type instead of praising her talent — and it turns out we aren’t alone! Her co-star from the film, Leven Rambin, told HollywoodLife.com exclusively that she thought the claims were completely outrageous!

We caught up with the star at Juicy Couture’s Fall 2012 preview in NYC on Mar. 29, where we asked if she agreed with their statements she said, “Not at all. She, her body and her image, is just an amazing representation for everyone. We have very similar body types, and I look up to her and her confidence, so I think she was absolutely perfect for the role,” Leven said. “If anyone can transform themselves, morph into a character and fill a role with 100% confidence it’s her, so I think that people should acknowledge how well she did [playing Katniss] and how brave she was in the role, regardless of what she looks like.”

We couldn’t agree with her more! Leven went on to tell us that the major, whirl-wind success of the film did take her a bit by surprise. “Yeah, I’m surprised that it’s part of history in Hollywood and history in cinema, and to be a part of that, even a small part, is such an honor and it’s so incredible, and I mean, it’s my first big film, and it’s really historic. I’m like kind of shell-shocked a little bit still,” she said. “I’m excited that it has taken off. When we were making it we weren’t quite sure, we were like, ‘Oh, man, this could totally flop! We don’t know.’ But the way that it was cut and edited together and the way that it was carried out and marketed, I’m just really happy that the fans are responding to it in the best way.”

“The Hunger Games” cast are getting ready to start filming in North Carolina and actress Leven Rambin talks to Interview magazine about how nervous she is to start. Plus she already has a crush on Josh Hutcherson!

Leven Rambin is living the dream right now. The actress was a huge fan of The Hunger Games trilogy even before she knew one day she’d be playing the part of Glimmer, a tribute that faces Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) and Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) to the death! Leven reveals she’s already in “the process of training” for the movie and says she can’t wait to work with the other “amazing actors” Josh and Jennifer.

Leven sat down with Interview Magazine to chat about The Hunger Games and we loved her candor and eagerness to accurately depict the role of Glimmer, District 1′s female tribute. She really wants to please fans and says she’s been training hard in LA to get in shape! “As a fan of the books themselves, I would hope someone in the cast would be as dedicated to it as possible, so that is what I’m trying to achieve. I’m doing a pretty good job; I’m having carrot, celery, and ginger juice right now.” Leven continues, “She’s supposed to be this relentless, ruthless killing machine who has been training her whole life. Physically, that’s a whole other level for me. Strength-wise, training-wise, and skill-wise, I have to learn how she fights with swords and bow and arrows. She is supposed to be this really ripped girl, basically. I’m working really hard on that, and I think it’s a cool process to go through—I’ve never really gone through that kind of preparation for a character, with physical incorporation. It’s hard work, and I’m sore, but it is such an exciting thing to do.”

Here are more highlights from Leven’s interview:

• On the all-star cast: “I’m basically working a lot with Jennifer [Lawrence] and Josh [Hutcherson] in the arena, which is the actual battle, but they also have some action outside of the arena. I don’t think every role has been cast, but a lot of the people who I will be working with have been cast. Dayo Okeniyi is playing Thresh, who is a fellow fighter tribute, so I met him. I’m supposed to meet Jennifer this week, which I’m very excited about, because there are only really two girls in the movie. Her and a younger girl, who I think is, like, ten, and Elizabeth Banks, whom I haven’t met but am also very excited to meet.”
• On Josh Hutcherson: “Josh Hutcherson I’ve known for a couple of years, and I saw him do The Kids Are All Right—I’ve seem him do so well, and he is just so talented. I’ve always had a little baby crush on him. So I’m really excited for him and to finally work with him.”
• On being a huge fan of the books: “I am such a big fan. I tried to get every one of my friends to read it. A lot of my friends had already read it, and that’s why I picked it up, because they were all talking about it. Once I picked it up, I couldn’t stop. I was constantly reading it: on airplanes, at dinner, I was reading it under the table. Just in love. I was always like, “Did you hear what happened this week in Hunger Games?” Like it was like a soap opera that only I would enjoy. I was like, ‘Whoa, I’m auditioning for Hunger Games?’ That’s like my dream come true. That’s like a Trekkie auditioning for Star Trek. I was a total fan about it. I think the director saw my passion and saw my excitement for the project, and it worked in my favor [...] I’m really happy that the fans seem to accept me as Glimmer. I’m really excited that they are supportive of me.”

So what is Leven most nervous about? “I’m pretty nervous!” laughs Leven. “About, I guess, being able to act with these really great talents, and holding my own. And trying to want to kill Jennifer Lawrence—being able to intimidate her, because she is a very strong actress, and to go up against her, go head-to-head with her, is kind of nerve-racking. I admire her, and hopefully, I’m sure we’ll get along. Yeah—I’m just nervous to have this big opportunity, and I hope I don’t blow it!”

Leven is so cute worrying about making her fans happy! She sounds down-to-earth and is taking her job very seriously. Are you excited to see her as Glimmer?

Brooke & Julian’s surrogate dishes on the double-labor drama! Do you think Chloe will keep the baby?

The babies are almost here! Haley (Bethany Joy Galeotti) and Chloe (Leven Rambin) will both go into labor on the April 19 episode of One Tree Hill, and Leven tells HollywoodLife.com exactly what to expect from Chloe’s big day. “She’s very scared and she doesn’t want anything to go wrong,” Leven tells us exclusively. “But suddenly she’s faced with the reality of the situation. Once she has the baby, that maternal instinct kicks in that she didn’t think she had. It’s heartbreaking.”

So, is it possible that Chloe will decide not to give her baby over to Brooke (Sophia Bush) and Julian (Austin Nichols)? Leven won’t say, but she will own up to Chloe’s shortcomings.

“Chloe isn’t ready,” Leven admits. “She knows she isn’t ready, but she’s been denying any feelings of attachment in order to make Brooke and Julian happy. She pushed her own feelings down, but once she gives birth, there’s a flood of oppressed emotions that come to the surface. She has to be strong for herself, her baby and for Brooke and Julian.

Even though this is the second time Leven’s sported a baby belly on-screen — she played Mark’s (Eric Dane) pregnant daughter on Grey’s Anatomy – she says there’s always something new to learn about playing pregnant. She tells us she had some help this time around from a very special on-set tutor, Bethany Joy Galeotti!

“Joy was telling me, when I was walking, that it looked ‘too easy,’” Leven admits. “She was like, ‘You need to struggle more with the walk, and waddle more to make it look real.’ When I was jumping off the counter, she was like, ‘Girl, do you think I could do that? It’s hard enough for me to sit down, let alone hop on and off a counter.’”

Which blonde babe looks best in stripes?

Stars like Kim Kardashian and Heidi Klum have been crazy about stripes recently, and we definitely understand why! Not only are they adorable and appropriate for spring, they are also flattering and fun when worn the right way. Personally, I love the look because they can easily be dressed up or dressed down — and that’s exactly what we’ve seen in our latest faceoff!

Actress and newlywed Hilary Duff wore an adorable striped tank by Gentle Fawn when she stepped out in LA. She paired it with a fitted knee-length skirt and dark pumps. Meanwhile, Wizards of Waverly Place starlet Leven Rambin wore the exact same top — but with edgy moto boots and a jean jacket. Leven’s look was casual and fun, but Hilary definitely wins this one for me. She has really proven herself with her stylish choices and her clothes always have a sleek and sexy fit.

What do you guys think? Who worked the striped trend best?

Spencer Cain

A dress is definitely easy to slip on during the day, but if you want to bring some serious style to your look why not opt for a fun little romper? Whether their getting glam on the carpet or just dressing down, celebs like Audrina Patridge and Hilary Duff have been sporting their playful get-ups everywhere! The key to working this trend is finding a romper that flatters your figure– if you have a tiny waist, add a belt just like Kim Kardashian!

Why worry about the wind or having to cross your legs when you can stay comfy but still look cute in a shorts jumpsuit? Whether you want a fun print for during the day, (like Leven Rambin‘s Division-E tie dye romper), or are looking for something to slip in to at night, (like Katharine McPhee and Keri Hilson‘s red carpet Armani Exchange get-ups), we’ve picked out some of the best rompers around! Pair your new outfit with gladiator sandals during the day, or slip in to some heels to dress it up.

Who wore alice + olivia better?

Talk about a popular dress! Mena Suvari first wore the alice + olivia by Stacey Bendet Wrapped Goddess Dress in Las Vegas on Feb. 20. Mena paired the military green frock with matching tights, black pumps, and a Lia Sophia necklace, ring, and bracelet. Four days later, on Feb. 24 in LA, Leven Rambin showed up in the same exact get-up! Leven opted for black tights and pumps, and minimal jewelry. While Mena and Leven both covered up with tights, when Jenna Dewan stepped out sporting the dress in a silvery shade she went for a bare leg, black pumps, and an up-swept ‘do. While all girls were spotted in the same get-up, their looks couldn’t be any more different! From Mena’s bold jewelry, Leven’s minimal style, and Jenna’s bare look, who wore it best?
