Can't Touch This


It's been over a year since Marc Jacobs showed harem pants in his Spring '07 collection, but they are just now being spotting in H&M and on Topshop's website.

I like the look of them but im not sure how flattering they will be?

So You Want to Look Like a Alberta Ferretti Model?


"It's a watered-down sixties look,But it's less refined and more rock 'n' roll than Brigitte Bardot" -Peter Philips
Step One: Apply Chanel Pro Lumiere Professional Finish Makeup SPF 15

Step Two: Instead of blush, apply a highlighter to tempes and cheekbones.
"to give the skin dimension without contouring."

Step Three: Blend Chanel Ombre Essentielle Soft Tough Eyeshadows in Ebony and Mahongany from lash line to crease.

Step Four: Line top and bottom lashes with Chanel Le Crayon Kohl Intense Eye Pencil in black

Step Five: Chanel Inimitable Waterproof Mascara Multi-Dimensionnel in Black, a multipurpose eye enhancer that volumizes, lengthens, curls, and separates lashes

Step Six: (is supposed to be dab lips with faundation instead of color, but heres a more "real world" option)
Philips recommends using beige lip color on lips and adding a peach-hued blush to give cheeks more life

Hair Accessories


If the straight-off-the-catwalk styles from Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, and Christian Dior are too statement, try a more simple approach to floral hair accessories. For example the picture to the right from http://www.accessorize.co.uk/ (its the UK verison of Claires and its way better).

Hosiery


Hosiery manufacturers have come up with some eye popping prints for tights, and they are making and impact all over. Patterned hosiery in luxe textures instantly kicks up the style on this season's most casual looks.

The Mystery Spoof


Even WWD cant figure out whoes behind the fake Marc Jacobs ads. All they could confirm was what every one already knew- thats theres no way the ads are real. It seems like no one has any idea who shot them or even identify the two guys in them.

Its all a mystery.

Mary-Kate


I'm just going to let this speak for itself. I WANT THIS JACKET!

Gisele and LeBron


Gisele on the Cover of Vogue yeah yeah wheres the catch....LeBron James is right there next to her! LeBron is following in the footsteps of Gerorge Clooney,and Richard Gere. Any one find it coincidental that the previous 2 covers with males on them had the SAME LAYOUT. Red and White fonts, and in 8 year intervals, 1992, 2000, and 2008. Well have to wait until 2016 to prove our hypothesis correct.

But on a personal note, i dont care for this cover, yeah i'm not rushing to buy this one.

YSL Thief


Dersigners are known to occationaly pay models in clothing, and models do tend to help themselves to an accessory ortwo at the end of a show, wheather they are invited to or not. One of the girls backstage at the YSL show last week, gave herself away when Style.com spotted a very familiar-looking black patent-leather platform Mary Jane on a very familiar leg.

Bloomers




I know your probably like "Bloomers wtf are you 5 years old"

Anyway, I'm kinda short, ok im really short im 5'2'', so my dresses are short, i think it makes my legs look longer, (but i obviously wear colored tights so i dont look trashy). But since the weather is getting hotter, wool and or opaque tights arent as practical (not that i care but..) bloomers are a great alternative to wear under those short dresses, so you dont look like a slut.(that was kinda harsh, some girls can pull it off, depending on the dress and the girl.)

So would you wear bloomers? or do you think its the stupidest trend since the Faux Designer Bag?

Flap or Not to Flap


I've been DYING to host a 1920's Murder Mystery party for ages, but theres a few problems:

1. None of my friends would get it
2. None of them would dress up
3. Even if the were to dress up, no one would know what to wear

anyone want to host a party full of 1920's gangsters, flappers, jazz, and ciggarettes? oh and invite me?

THANK YOU SEPHORA!


Sephora has FINALLY imported Dior's Blue Poison nail polish- and the ony other place you can get it is in Europe. I know what im buying on my next trip to Sephora.

Big Bold and Beautiful


The heavy costume jewelery from the recent Paris runways seems to be a reoccurring trend. Louis Vuitton, John Galliano and Yves Saint Laurent all seem to be thinking of inventive ways to weigh down our necks.

Urban Outfitters has cute (and cheap) alternatives.
