HEADLINES: The Duchess Channels Britney, Lindsay Wixson Runs Like a Hamster, and Anna Dello Russo is a Dirty Girl.
What do Britney Spears and Kate Middleton have in common? Well the correct answer should be absolutely nothing! However, Kate showed up to a charity event last night and well … her hair extensions were showing! Seriously? The Princess (sorry, the Duchess) couldn’t hide her weave? What is happening in the world? (Lainey Gossip)
H&M has released the behind-the-scenes footage from their upcoming TV commercial advertising their collaboration with Versace and it’s AH-MAZING! All I’m going to say is Lindsay Winxson runs on a giant hamster wheel. You’re welcome! (The Cut)
So you’ve heard by now that Christina Louboutin and YSL are fighting over the colour red, right? Well now it seems Tiffany & Co. is getting involved and taking sides. Loubs and Tiff are teaming up against YSL because they both have a stake in the trade marking of colours. I don’t know how I feel about this. Next thing you know the Kardashians will be filing for a trademark on leopard print. (HuffPost Style)
Holy Moly! I’m on a serious collaboration overload. Too many, too often. Oh and this one is grinding my gears more than anything! Drybar, a blow-dry bar, and Skinnygirl – you know that margarita that housewife made – are teaming up. How forced and awkward! This might be the dumbest thing I’ve read all day; might be. (People)
Toms, the shoe company with a heart, has debuted a new line of super cute flats. The updated design is much more stylish and still just as charitable. Geeze, with all the good Toms is doing they just make Christina Louboutin and YSL seem like whiny rich kids, huh? (Fab Sugar)
Bahaha! I love Anna, but I can’t help but laugh at this. Someone brilliant hacked Anna Dello Russo’s Wikipedia page and altered it to be a little dirty and a lot funny. Wow, I’m immature! (Fashionista)

HALLOWEEN COSTUME: Fashimal Anna

IN THE MAKEUP ROOM WITH LUCKY: Sharlene Becomes Ju-On
IT’S A HALLOWEEN SPECIAL! No, Sharlene is not a dead Yoko Ono. Lucky made her Ju-On (The Grudge) – Japanese horror movies, anyone? This is what she used: read more…

HEADLINES: Dina Lohan is Stupid, Iris Apfel is Mean, and Kanye West’s Fashion Career Isn’t Over?
Terry Richardson is one busy man with many, many doppelgangers. While shooting Beyonce recently for Harper’s Bazaar Terry took a time out to shoot some outtakes of Queen B fooling around with his signature glasses. This photo is now my desktop background. (Popsugar)
Whoa! Is Iris Apfel starting to lose it? They say dementia can manifest itself in aggression and I say that ‘they’ are right! The plagiarizing jewellery designer recently told the Telegraph that she wants to throw up when walking down 5th Avenue now because all the fat and ugly people don’t wear enough clothing. She goes on to say that stretch jeans over size 10 should be outlawed. Wow that’s gutless! Geeze, who peed in your cornflakes Iris? (The Cut)
Why am I not surprised that Dina Lohan has stooped to a new low? Because she’s a terrible person, that’s why! It seems mommy dearest is shopping around a personal memoir about Lilo’s partying and legal woes. Right, because that’s just what a good mother should do! Seriously, Mike and Dina never gave Lindsay a chance, did they?Throwing their daughter under the bus is their M.O. (Refinery 29)
So the Rolling Stone thinks that Kanye West’s fashion career isn’t dead … yet. It’s a point of view not shared by many, however, the article explores how he could have been more successful and ultimately concludes Kanye shouldn’t give up after only one attempt. No! Don’t encourage him! I don’t know if I can endure another disaster like that! (Rolling Stone)
Dior seems virtually unaffected by John Galliano’s racist tirade and departure from the brand. In fact, revenue is up 21%. Geeze people are weird, it’s like public indecency doesn’t even exist anymore. It’s just like when Kate Moss got caught doing coke and her career experienced a resurgence, although, I guess John Galliano’s career is still in question but I’m betting he will be just fine! (Fashionista)
So you know that depressing voice-over at the beginning of Rihanna’s We Found Love music video? That woman’s voice with the English accent, you know? Yeah it’s totally Agyness Deyn. (NY Fashion)
Good things come in pairs, right? Is that even an expression? Well, either way that doesn’t apply here. Because when handbags come in twos (specifically in two identical designs) it’s called plagiarism. I wonder how Marc Jacobs will respond. (The Purse Blog)

HALLOWEEN COSTUME: Tavi Gevinson
Love her or hate her (and we really should dial back our hate for a 15 year old – bullying is wrong people!) her presence in the fashion industry is undeniable. And whether or not she’s more spectacle than substance; her personal style is captivating and creative – perfect for a costume! read more…
