Evidently hard times have fallen upon Kristin Cavallari. Not only was she spotted shilling at the opening of the latest branch of the classiest of classy establishments Brother Jimmy’s (you just have to try the ribs platter with the Swamp Water, it’s divine), but she showed up sporting a saggy grey

For those of you that exist in a constant state of envy of the effortless chic of Parisians and purchase everything in the APC showroom each season, you will be pleased to know that the classic Bensimon plimsoles are now available Stateside.  These little tennies are de rigeur footware for

Everyone and their bff/assistant/reality-show rival have been spotted wearing (or should I say encased in) Herve Leger bandage dresses of late.  I admit, these dresses do a fab job of showing off these ladies’ bodies, but their ship has sailed.  There’s only so much you can do with itty-bitty skintight

I am very, very disturbed by the below photograph.  Fine, it’s art (and good art, I guess, since I’m having such a strong reaction to it), but … yikes.

The above is actually part of an exhibit currently on display by artist Julie Rrap at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney,

I’ve said it and I’ll say it again; when it comes to fashion, nothing wows me more than interesting juxtapositions. So when I saw Anne Hathaway wearing this shorts suit by Jenni Kayne, I may have swooned (just a bit). The combination of casual with formal, loosely structured menswear with

The latest addition to Chanel’s line of sportswear includes a luxury angler kit.  As in fly-fishing.  Now, I’m going to put myself out there and show that I know a little too much about fishing while I explain my numerous problems with this.  The kit includes a fishing rod, black

Mary-Kate Olsen was a sartorial success as the premiere of her new film The Wackness (ie the movie where she makes out with Sir Ben Kingsley).  Lady loves her big long dresses with plunging necklines, but it’s a pleasant alternative to other stars that can’t even remember to put on their

First came the widespread acceptance of the man-purse.

Then came the Prada miniskirt/tutu (though they claim it’s a belt … whatever) …

Now, we have the Fendi wedge

And, because it has the potential to burn the retinas of everyone in a 25-mile radius when worn by someone not

Boutique Funky LaLa is having a serious sale, and I do mean serious. Now is your chance to scoop up pieces by Generra, Rebecca Minkoff, Gustto, Rozae Nichols, and Nicholas K (basically everything is to die for including the Sahara trench, which I currently have in forest green and love) …

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are officially my new favorite people.  Why, you may ask, would such two colossal wastes of space earn such high levels of my esteem?  The answer, dear readers, is because I can always count on H&S for comedic entertainment.  Take, for example, the video of

We thought dress codes at LES/Meatpacking etc bars were bad, but check out this ultra blue-blooded soiree in the good ol’ UK, as reported by the Star in Toronto.  The Ascot Horse Race is a big affair, with none other than Queen Elizabeth attending.  Apparently, attire in years past has been

Is it just me, or does this celeb look very different now from the below shot taken in 2005? I had to refer to the caption to figure out who it was– do you recognize this famous face?

In classical dance, you begin ballet classes with the dream of someday advancing to en pointe, also known as the style of ballet where you wear extra uncomfortable shoes with plaster toes that do terrible things to your feet while making you look unspeakably elegant. It makes a kind of

I like new fashion trends. Especially because there is always the temptation to bring it up to the next level, which often results in huge missteps (though to be fair, fashion would be a boring, bland place without risk-takers). In this case, chanteuse Rihanna wears some over-the-top Balenciaga gladiators and,

Something is missing from this picture …

It seems as though the designer is English as well, so why the prudish attitude toward nudity? That’s totally the territory of the US of A.

The Moment reports that designer Agnes B. is taking over the design of the workers’ uniforms at Versailles (the actual palace, not some club/bar/restaurant etc). Agnes makes an excellent point when she says “Men look very sexy dressed in 18th-century fashion!” Case and point, take a look at these stars

If Naeem Khan’s resort collection is any indication, the Spring/Summer ’08 trend of bright colors will come back just as strong in ’09. Current trends of ethnic prints and ombre fabrics will persevere as well, in addition to the florals that are expected to be the new hotness for this

For the past five years, Swarovski has celebrated Jewelry Week (jewelry world’s equivalent of Fashion Week) with a fantastical, collaborative runway show. This year’s designers included Erickson Beamon, Hussein Chalayan, Ana de Costa, Christopher Kane, Rodrigo Otazu, Marios Schwab and Pippa Small, among others. The cohesive element is the crystals themselves,

Sometimes, the price of fashion drives me nuts. Now, there are some beautifully detailed pieces out there that warrant the heftier price tag, simply to cover the cost of labor (3.1 Phillip Lim, Nicholas K and others). However the recent trend in “ethnic” prints and jewelry has resulted in inflated

While doing a little research on Matthew McConaughey’s upcoming clothing line that somehow completely escaped my notice (beachwear, entitled j.k. livin’ for “just keep livin’”– appropriate given his aversion to shirts), I discovered that Katherine Heigl has a clothing line. Of … wait for it … “designer” scrubs (because guys, don’t

Bruce Pask over at the Moment thinks that “the prep-inspired look of summers past — lace-up leather oxfords with no socks — just seems a bit too polished, pulled together and considered” for this summer. I don’t really agree or disagree on this one, but I do happen to like his footwear

People Magazine has described Kim Kardashian’s signature style as “tight dresses and super-high heels.” Kimmy, sweetheart, is this really something to be proud of? Can we think of some other ladies who also are identified with this style of dress, that, shall we say, work the night shift? (Though some would say

There are sample sales everywhere in NYC. Fortunately, the temptation is far removed as the majority of them occur during the hours when most of us normal folk are working so we can do fun things like pay the rent. However, now there are all of these online invite-only sample
