Temporary Tattoos Yay Or Nay

Somehow, some way, temporary tattoos are not just for whiny little kids at the supermarket anymore. Yep, tattoos go haute with picks from Chanel and Betsey Johnson. While they’re ideal for the non-committal chica who craves a little edge orrrr the girl who used to lick Fruit Stripe gum wrappers (guilty), I can’t quite get in the groove. I’m all...

Sure, it’s sad to say goodbye to some of our favorite summer trends (RIP maxi dresses), but it’s time to welcome layers and cozy wear. A controversial but functional trend right now? Stylish socks. Much like the , socks are getting serious cred, and stars like Rihanna have been wearing them with boots, pumps and even (gasp!) sandals instead of... CONTINUE READING 28

Another Fashion Week here and gone, and another set of opinions to boot. As usual, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week brought with it everything from extreme joy (read: I-can’t-wait-to-see-who-rocks-that-on-the-Red-Carpet-and-be-SO-jealous) to extreme disgust (read: is-this-reallllly-the-future-of-fashion?!).

It’s easy to get so wrapped up in the pure fashion aspect of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, but what about the photographers who so perfectly catch those models going down the runway? Without them, discovering next season’s latest and greatest would be limited only to those who actually attended the shows…and every daydreaming fashionista knows that's not fair. Shecky’s got the...

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week is over, which means we’re still feeling the aftershocks of a huge celebrity turnout. To support their favorite designers, stars are typically dressed head-to-toe in the newest styles. One surprising trend we’re spotting is matching dresses and shoes.

It would be ignorant of me to think that we've reached a point where weight ideals and "norms" have vanished, but after the VMAs and examining other current big-name celebs, I do think (slash hope) that we are entering an age of acceptance. Let's look at the growing number of "freaky" costumes our stars wear. Even Cher, who showed up in... CONTINUE READING 38

We can't stop talking about this past Sunday's MTV VMAs. With hilariously inappropriate Chelsea Handler playing host, the awards were anything but tame. The VMAs are always a chance for celebs to show their fun sides, as the dress code is far more casual than any of its award show counterparts...as highlighted by the white not red carpet. As expected, there was... CONTINUE READING 35
