It’s Chambray, Hombre!

The nice thing about being a lady (besides everything) is that we can take bits and pieces from our fellow men’s wardrobes and turn them into something completely new. Take the chambray shirt for example. It’s light, it’s casual, it’s versatile and it’s necessary. Inspired by the early 1900’s US Naval uniforms, this classic men’s work-shirt has now been transformed into a spring/summer favorite that us gals know how to ~werrrk~ without the work. You know what I mean? Just take a gander: read more…

Dressing like You’re In A Sofia Coppola Movie: A Comprehensive Guide


Source: Cinemafanatic

Isn’t it nice/jealousy-inducing when the children of incredibly talented famous people turn out to be just as incredibly talented as their predecessors? That’s what happened in the case of Sofia Coppola, the spawn/offspring/daughter of Francis Ford Coppola, whose movies we’ve never grown tired of even after watching them over and over and over (thank goodness for digital copies, our DVD’s are shot).

Sofia writes and directs female characters geared towards paths of ethereal discovery – something they happen to be doing in (often) incredibly awesome clothes. And seeing as how Sofia is BFF’s with Marc Jacobs, it’s safe to say that she is no stranger to ~fashion~, and her personal style is the instigator of that je ne sais quoi to the aesthetic of her films. If you’ve ever wanted to emulate her latest, greatest, and most lovely, read on for a comprehensive guide to follow along with the best style moments in her movies. read more…

The 10 Best (Creepiest) Celebrity Dolls

Not only do celebrities make great entertainers, but apparently, they also make good companions, collectibles, or house décor.

But there are the leftover 5% that actually mirror their masters quite impressively – here are the top ten must-see dolls that unquestionably surprise you, make you laugh, and/or, creep you out. read more…

THROWBACK: American Vogue September Issues of the 2000s

The most imperative question among us faithful followers of fashion come late July will always remain: “who will snag the cover of Vogue’s September issue?” But we’re not just talking about any Vogue – we’re talking about American Vogue. Yes, it is arguably the most mainstream of ‘em all, yet Anna Wintour keeps us coming back for more. Plus, her celebrity rotation (or lack-thereof) has always been a matter of much fascination. We speculate; we place bets; we wait with bated breath upon the September issue’s arrival on newsstands. And so in honor of the so-called “leaked” Gaga cover, here’s a look at some pretty lovely September issues of the new millennium. read more…

HEADLINES: Rihanna Lives a Thug Life, Tim Gunn Needs to Get Some, and Skin-thia Nixon Goes Bald.

New couple alert! Kirsten Dunst and Garrett Hedlund have been making out all over Sundance. Going public while promoting a new movie? That wasn’t contrived at all. (People)

Oh Rihanna, why do you make it so hard for me to like you? These tattoos just made it infinitely harder. (Daily Mail)

I think it’s safe to say; Tim Gunn is a born again virgin, as he hasn’t had sex in my entire lifetime, and then some. (CBS News)

I didn’t know it until right now, but I am a fan of fanged footwear. Big fan! (Too Fab)

Ugh. This has to be one of my biggest pet peeves. What the hell is “exhaustion” and how the hell do you treat it … besides taking a nap? Demi just tell us the truth. (Lainey Gossip)

Cynthia Nixon has gone bald for a new role on Broadway. And I’d say she’s pulling it off. Her head is nice and spherical (an underrated quality if you ask me). I feel bad for the baldies with ugly shaped skulls. (Just Jared)

Kardashian’s NOT going to college is supposed to be news? (Well technically they are Jenner’s) Awe naïve Bruce! Don’t worry; no one expected them to get in anyways. (Wonderwall)
