A Tale of Designer Switcheroos

Time travels in the fashion world a lot faster than it does in the real world. The new Wang booties you bought last week will be outdated by the time the snow clears. Taking this time warp into consideration, I’ll start my story off with “A long time ago, in a far away land…” (Because one year in fashion speak, is in fact,  ‘long time ago’). read more…

Would You? Could You? BLUE MASCARA

Usually if you’re looking for a pop of colour, in terms of makeup, your first instinct would be to go for a red lip, pink blush, or – if you’re feeling really crazy – a coloured eyeshadow.  How about loading up your lashes with an unexpected hue like cobalt blue?  We’ve seen blue lashes trying to make their comeback in fashion, but the question is… yay or nay? read more…

HEADLINES: Snooki’s Got New Ink, Marc Jacobs Plays Coy and Rodarte Could Save Opera.

As if Sofia Vergara wasn’t perfect enough – she’s saving lives now too. Yup, one drunk at a time! The Modern Family star was celebrating New Years in Vegas when she witnessed a woman collapse and quickly rushed to her aid. So she’s stunning and NICE? Ugh. Turns out the woman was just wasted, in Vegas, on New Years … imagine that! (TMZ)

It’s been announced that Rodarte has been tapped to design the costumes for the LA Philharmonic’s new production of the opera Don Giovanni. Oh good, maybe young fashionistas will take an interest in the opera and this guy won’t kill himself. (Lucky)

Are you freaking kidding me? Axe is coming out with a scent for women called, “Anarchy”. That’s right the company that objectifies women in all of their marketing wants your money now too. Good luck with that. And word to the wise; fragrances should never come in an aerosol can. (Frisky)

Nicole Richie tries to prove she’s down to Earth by sharing, “I can do my own hair, but I can not do makeup. I don’t even own it. I only own under eye concealer, Maybelline mascara, and an eyelash curler.” I almost buy it, except she goes on to say that every time she wears make-up she has to get it done professionally. (Silver spoon still firmly in mouth) (In Style)

People magazine is confirming what we already know. Fashion Ads are going indie; favouring edgier models over bubble-gum blondes. See, we told you! (People)

Gah. Marc Jacobs finally speaks out about why he turned down Dior but plays coy giving vague, PC answers. Come on, give us the dirt! (Huff Post Style)

Next Models continues to sign models whose talents extend beyond simply posing for the camera; Solange Knowles being their latest. The singer/DJ/model/Auntie to Blue Ivy joins the likes of Lana del Ray, Alexa Chung and Ellie Goulding among others at Next. Does this mean multi-hyphenates are taking over? (Fashionista)

Snooki’s got a new tat. And yes it’s as ugly and tacky as you would’ve expected. Maybe even more so. (Buzzfeed)
