ELLEgirl Gets Pretty

If you haven’t already applied for that internship at ELLEgirl.com, you might want to get on that as soon as possible.

ELLEgirl has relaunched their site as of this morning – it’s peppier, pinker and generally prettier, definitely worth a few clicks throughout the day.
We especially suggest the “Pretty Girl” section if [...]

Streetwalker: The Red Shoe Diaries

Got Her: On Second Avenue in the East Village.
Stalked Her: Because we were walking just behind her white coat and Marni shoulder bag, and had to see what the outfit looked like from the front.
Shot Her: Because with all the black bulky coats on the street for winter, this was a crisp [...]

Love Is Blind. We Are Not. Walk On By.

WHICH pixie-faced model, who fronts both a high end line and a street brand, was run over by a car last year? Her agents kept it a secret by saying she was too busy with photo shoots to walk the shows… but really, she was in physical therapy!

Would You Wear Colored Mascara?

Someone recently asked me if I ever change my look, hair and make-up speaking. I was a little taken aback until I realized that I really don’t – I’ve been doing the “natural” thing my whole life, using only neutral makeup.

So I decided to make a few changes:
First, inspired by Marni’s runways, I [...]

At Mulberry, Love Stinks (Unless It’s For Style)

Fashion relationships that have actually lasted:

Dolce Gabbana.
Ruben Isabel Toledo.
Patrick Robinson Virginia Smith.
Fashion relationships that have always crumbled:
Ours. And apparently, most of the Mulberry girls’, too.
Since London Fashion Week happens smack on Valentine’s Day this season, the handbag company’s throwing a bash inside their Notting Hill store, with Hot [...]

Lohan to Fashion Week. Yipee.

Among the greater mysteries surrounding Lindsay Lohan:
– Why she changed her middle name from “Morgan” to “Dee”
–What exactly happens in luxury rehab
–When she went from being an extraordinarily good actress to an extraordinarily bad tabloid fixture
–Where she’ll be during Fashion Week.
That last question will soon be answered, though, as we hear that Ms. [...]

ELLE’s New Reality: Tyra?

We were shocked to learn that Tyra is starting yet another reality show, about breaking into fashion magazines nonetheless.

Now, we’re even more shocked. Why? It turns out that the magazine in question is not one of the less exciting books like everyone expected – it’s fashion giant ELLE.
WWD reports that [...]

Adventures in Copyright: Love Bracelets

When we spot a Cartier LOVE bracelet, we usually think of Elizabeth Taylor and the great pile of them she must have accumulated.

We’re totally forget that their design was inspired by the chastity belts warriors locked onto their wives in Medieval England.
It’s almost unsettling that the bracelet’s design of screws, meant [...]

Dita’s Secret For Sale

Lingerie companies tend to feature the same women over and over:

Agent Provacateur and the yummy mummies; Victoria’s Secret and the super tan, super tall beauties.
Now, Wonderbra has revealed its newest collaborator (first collaborator?) – Dita von Teese.
Dita will design a line of 1940’s-inspired lingerie, to be sold first in [...]

An Open Letter to Blake Lively at The Chanel Couture Show

Dear Blake Lively,
We know we love you.
But.
If you’re going to your first fashion show ever, and it’s the Chanel Couture show besides, wouldn’t you like to wear something… cool?
Even Serena and Blake’s ultimate idol, Audrey Hepburn, would wear something a bit more fitted, more flirty, and dare we say it, more rock ‘n roll, when [...]
