BEFORE THEY WERE FAMOUS: Ash Stymest

Isn’t it comforting to know that Ash Stymest was not only in a boy band, but was a Myspace whore too? How incriminating photos from the past can be!

FIRST LOOK: “Let’s Talk About Alexa Chung” V Magazine Issue #62

Alexa Chung is quite an ambiguous person. She’s got her own MTV show, a gorgeous face and great style, but I don’t really know or understand WHO Chung really is. Is she a socialite? An actress? A model? Thanks to our friends at V Magazine, we’ll get a glimpse of

FIRST LOOK: Proenza Schouler Bow-Ties

Proenza Schouler has always brought us a variety of accessories to coo over, but these newly released bow-ties are some of the best we’ve seen from the designer duo. I’m really digging the hardware aspect of these bow-ties as well as the dangling chains, really providing an edgy, yet elegant,

Chanel Iman Has A [Self-Indulged] Blog

The variety of blogs out there is never ending, and let’s face it, we all love getting personal with celebrities and socialites via their personal, opinionated blogs. But model Chanel Iman has joined the bandwagon of self-perpetuated blogging with “Runaway,” Iman’s personal blog where she does little but post photos,

Fashion’s Night Out To Return In 2010

I hope you enjoyed the free booze and food, as well as the celebrity appearances, crowded street, long lines and discounts, because Anna Wintour and Mayor Bloomberg recently confirmed that another Fashion’s Night Out is in our midst. Call me crazy, but I saw little to no people walking around

Why ‘Olsenboye’?

I’m sure I wasn’t the only one who wondered why the Olsen twins decided to name their JCPenney line “Olsenboye,” and thanks to the help of NY Mag, we now know that “Olsenboye” is Mary Kate and Ashley’s Norwegian ancestral name. There you have it, another question answered!

Thanks NY Mag!

STYLE HEROES: Kate Lanphear

As per usual, Elle’s style editor and my idol, Kate Lanphear, was photographed looking absolutely kick ass! The high waisted leather skirt really compliments Lanphear’s glitzy, sheer top, opaque tights and leather lace-up platforms. As always, Lanphear leaves me green-eyed over her jewelry, wishing my wrists were shackled with silver

DIY: Office Supplies Embellishments

I saw these awesome gold plated staples on Like Cool and it hit me- office supplies can make for awesome accessories and outfit embellishments. For those of you who are into studs, a stapler is a cheap and unique alternative to a bedazzling grommet gun, and seeing how easy they are

RUNWAY: Jil Sander Spring 2010

The fact that I somehow forgot to post Jil Sander’s Spring 2010 collection earlier is inexcusable, but look on the bright side, we’re that much closer to the gauze and linen goodness in store this spring! Overall, the line is relatively natural, encompassing earthy tones of beige and other basics.

SHOP Oak: Black Fur Panel Sleeveless Wrap, $320

I’ve been a sucker for vests and fur recently, so it goes without saying that Oak’s black fur panel sleeveless wrap has the best of both worlds. I love how the shearling dresses up this slouchy and tattered cotton wrap, making it an easy staple for both dressy and casual
