Wait, what? That t-shirt cost you $1625? (And other ridiculously cheap looking expensive things)

Traditionally, being rich meant buying ridiculously expensive garments and looking hella’ good wearing them. These days however, there can be little correlation between the cost of clothing and how ~pricey~ they appear. Thanks to poor-looking rich people *cough Mary-Kate Olsen*, it has become the norm to disguise your wealth under cheap/ugly looking outfits that actually cost more than most people’s monthly rent. So sit back, relax and enjoy these selected items while being grateful that you probably can’t afford any of them. Who knew it could cost so much to look so bad? read more…

HEADLINES: Leo Returns to Modelizing, Roberto Cavalli Shows in Tel-Aviv, and Versace for H&M Round 2 is a Go.

OH, would you just knock it off already! Is rubbing salt in wounds your new MO? Angelina Jolie did an interview with 60 Minutes telling them she saves her ‘wild side’ for Brad. Like ew. Just because you have like 12 kids doesn’t mean you are any better than LeAnn ‘Home Wrecker’ Rimes. (People)

This is Leonardo DiCaprio’s new piece. Madalina Ghenea is her name and she’s a model from Romania. So Blake broke his heart and now he’s back on models! Maybe they are less … complicated. Anyway the question is; who would your rather? Blake vs. Madalina? (The Blemish)

Miley Cyrus was spotted outside a tattoo laser removal center yesterday. (Forgive me but it’s a slow news day being US Thanksgiving and all). Anyway Miley is just 19 and already removing tattoos. Well hold on, because her twenties are just around the corner! (The Superficial)

The second Versace for H&M collection is already a go because of the success of the first. Peep what’s next here. (Fashionologie)

Courtney Love showed up to the after-party for the FAMILY movie Hugo with her “pizza dough” tatas (their words, not mine) fully on display. What a class act! (Dlisted)

The city of West Hollywood has banned the sale of fur within its city limits. I’m sure all the high profile retailers in that area are thrilled! Oh, but leather is still cool. Phew. (The Cut)

Roberto Cavalli showed his spring 2012 collection for a second time; lending his name to the first Tel-Aviv Fashion Week in over 30 years. All eyes on Israel. (Huff Post Style)

HEADLINES: Coco Designs for Cambodia, Donatella Mean-Girls Cavalli, and Love Lives at Gucci.

Image by Jamie Beck & Kevin Burg

Coco Rocha is all about giving back these days and we couldn’t be more proud or supportive. Her most recent effort? Designing a jewellery line that benefits human trafficking victims in Cambodia. Plus, how cool are these gifs by Jamie Beck & Kevin Burg? SUPER COOL is the answer! (Style.com)

It’s not quite a fanny pack BUT it’s pretty damn near close. Would you Dolce & Gabbana’s belt purse? I’m basically a sloth; so in that sense I can see its appeal. But in that sense exclusively! (Bag Snob)

Fashion Designer mean girling is the BEST mean girling there is! Because of the egos, and the sense of entitlement, and because no one ever told them they need to have a filter. Donatella Versace does not have a filter! Like when it comes to her distaste for Cavalli – Donatella snarls, “What’s the point?” then looks at her publicist and asks, “Was I a beetch?” while bursting into laughter. You can’t make up this shit! (Fashionologie)

Ssscandal! It turns out Frida Giannini (creative director at Gucci) and Patrizio di Marco (CEO at Gucci) are something of an item! The two met on a trip toChina and have been keeping their relationship under wraps for over two years. PLUS, both were willing to leave the company if shit hit the fan. Aw. (The Cut)

So LeAnn Rimes and her slime-bag husband Eddie Cibiran dressed up as white trash for Halloween; complete with bad hair, tattoos, cigarettes, booze, and a shot-gun wedding! Way to keep it real classy and force people to say; “Wow, we were wrong about them!” (Amy Grindhouse)

Here are some numbers for yah – Macy’s will undergo a $400,000 renovation that will add 100,000 square feet of extra retail space and will house 300,000 pairs of shoes. Sounds totally worth it. (The Wall Street Journal)

Chloe Sevigny covers the 3rd issue of transsexual style magazine Candy dressed as Terry Richardson. And she didn’t skimp out and just put on his glasses. There is plaid and there is facial hair. (Frockwriter)

Kourtney Kardashian Prefers Menswear, Katie Holmes is a Badass (for once), and Forever 21 Gets Away with Murder.

Carey Mulligan hit up Comic Con looking absolutely drop dead. The colour blocking and midriff were right on point! And let’s be real no one rocks a pixie like Carey. Huge girl crush! (The FABlife)

I can’t believe I’m about to say this but Katie Holmes looks BADASS on the cover of the latest issue of Vogue Spain. Lace and leather make Katie look better. (PopSugar)

If Kim’s thing is her ASSets, and Khloe’s thing is being hilarious then Kourtney’s thing is menswear. How adorable? (Stylelist)

The Ice Queen herself is launching a secret new website. Let the guessing begin. (Styleite)

Glitter glasses? Yes please! Miu Miu does it again with their Noir Sunglasses Collection. (Fashionologie)

Forever 21 continues to commit the perfect crime. Will justice ever be served? Don’t they know plagiarism is a serious offense? Well, I don’t know, that’s what all my Profs told me.  (Jezebel)

Roberto Cavalli is designing exercise equipment! No, I’m not joking. These limited edition stationary bikes feature … leopard print. SHOCKER. (Refinery 29)

Helena Christensen reveals her struggles with modeling in an interview for Vogue. Stranded on a boat for five days is no picnic, granted, but given this was a Vogue shoot I’m guessing the boat was more than accommodating. Champagne problems? (Vogue)

When It Come to Respecting Vintage Style Kim Kills Jess, Roberto Cavalli has the Most Robert Cavalli Yacht, and I’ve Completely Fallen for Janie Cai. These Style Headlines and More:

Princess Beatrice and Dave Clark enjoyed their weekend yachting in St. Tropez. Bea looks good (for her) in a green romper. But why all hats all the time? (Daily Mail)

Minka Kelly witnessed her boo Derek Jeter’s 3000th career hit on Saturday, dressed simply with the most beautiful fresh face. But real talk, how many bracelets are we wearing these days girls? How many is too many? (People)

Is it just me or has Gwyneth Paltrow been riding the paps hard lately? Sure she looks great, albeit a little too skinny, in a bikini frolicking in Italy with Spielberg and her kids but, why all the show? Why all the ‘try’ lately? Something is brewing here and I’m suspicious. Plus I refuse to believe both Gwyn and Steve’s spouses are particularly happy about these photos.  (Popsugar)

Roberto Cavalli has a massive ‘Barney-purple’ yacht. Yep, that sounds about right. (Elle)

Excuse me? No, you did not just say that! “Jackie O who?” tweets Jessica Simpson upon receiving a Birkin bag from her fiancé for her birthday. Jess, honey, first never ever use Jackie’s name in vain again, second we all know you bought that bag for yourself; you’re not fooling us. Someone tell her publicist to take away her Twitter privileges. (US Magazine)

Meet Janie Cai. Fashion Scene Street-Style Queen. Holy Swag! Try and say that 5 times fast. (Miss Moss)

Kimmie K: more Elizabeth Taylor and less Botox please and thanks. (Stylelist)
