If you’re totally going through the phase of wanting to date a gothic boy/girl gone cowboy chic, then welcome yourself to the world of Nicholas K Fall 2012. Where it’s all about that cryptic attitude, a crazy amount of fringe, leather, and how you can strut your cowboy hat this season.

Where’d they go? Seems some celebs are staying under the radar lately (or maybe it’s just that some are overly putting themselves out there?)…so we’ve tried to compose a list of the celebrities we haven’t heard from in awhile. Any we missed?
–
1. Cory Kennedy- The internets biggest celebrity fell off the party circuit after her parents found out. Rumor has it she’s been shipped off to a special school where she has to stay in on school nights and can only go out with parental supervision. Phone and computer use is restricted, but Cory occasionally still updates her blog. Other than that, she’s been more or less MIA since 2007.
2. Renee Zellweger- Did a few flicks in 2006, but has been sticking to doing voices ever sense..maybe because she got so much heat for gaining/losing weight?
3. Julia Roberts- Said goodbye after Charlie Wilson’s War in 2007
4. Christina Aguilera- Since the birth of her baby boy in 2008, the former ‘Xtina’ has been busy being a mom.
5. Jim Carrey- MIA after ‘Yes Man’ last year
8. Johnny Knoxville- Johnny Knoxville is so dreamy. I really miss him and his aviators..he hasn’t been seen since the last season of Jackass in 2007
9. Winona Ryder- Post shoplifting, Winona Ryder was MIA for awhile, but apparently did a cameo in Star Trek..anyone see that? Cause I sure didn’t.
10. Anna Kournikova- She was just diagnosed with severe tenosynovitis in her left wrist..but where the heck was she before that? Ever since Maria Sharapova started doing Canon commercials, Anna’s been MIA.

Glastonbury is my favorite festival for trend-sparking due to the constant presence of Kate Moss (except this year…), wellies, denim cutoffs off duty models and rock stars – most of my favorite things.
Lily Allen has been loving wigs lately, and Glastonbury is a good time as any to experiment. Props to Lily for stepping up her fashion game and rocking sequins in the mud a la Kate Moss circa 2005. Note the female version of one glove Michael Jackson tribute.
Model/It Girl Daisy Lowe sporting the crop top trend (belly button covered as requested – thanks) and some strange sort of cape. Lily Donaldson looks effortlessly chic as always, wearing a perfect every day outfit, I wish my hair would look this perfect after rolling around in the Glastonbury mud.
Theodora Richards and Alexandra Richards looking like chic farm girls. That’s an impressive red lip on Theodora, and I appreciate the pop of color on her red boots. Pixie Geldof, the less annoying sister, wearing some spandex biker-esque shorts and an unnecessary hat. Hmm… maybe she is annoying.
Finally, some hipsters. Eliza Cummings wearing a surprisingly chic black dress and lace up wellies, a nice break from the standard Hunter’s. Cory Kennedy proves that she has lost whatever street urchin glam factor that she once had in stale overalls and a white t-shirt.

I’m assuming this is a bit dated, but it is still worth posting, because what’s better then seeing a faux-celebrity get put back in her place? Poor Cory Kennedy must not be in the good graces of the folks over at Elle UK because she got stamped with the “friend” tag in a picture with Peaches Geldof (check the outlined images above). Oh Cory, you can’t be too mad, you had a solid run of tricking people into thinking you were important, and for that I envy you.

Sophomore has released images of their upcoming Spring 2009 collection, and they have more or less sparked a longing for Spring/Summer in me already. The collection is exactly what I think about when I think of Spring. The photoshoot seems less of something planned out and coordinated, and more like friends just hanging out having a good time. Oh, and is that Cory Kennedy I see in there? Of course it is! Loves it! Chrissie Miller impresses me yet again. Excited to see the collection come Spring! Check out the slideshow for more pictures, and the Sophomore website for more details on the collection.

We might be, but designers and photographers certainly aren’t sick of the “It” girls just yet. Sophomore, brainchild of Chrissy Miller, launched it’s most recent look-book for Spring/Summer 2009. Forget the stunning underground models, Miller wanted more familiar faces to wear her line. The spread, shot by photographer Cass Bird, captures Cory Kennedy, Harley Viera Newton, Alexandra Richards, and Lizzy Trullie hanging about a Manhattan swimming pool. The look-book itself is rather youthful and candid, a bit more natural than the average photo-shoot.
Sophomore’s new collection may not be available for a while…but why not check out the S/S collection and some additional photos from the 2008 look-book!
Thanks NYLON!

Isn't Zooey an It Woman by now?
So Nylon recently came out with a list of things to do if you want to be an “It Girl” for their October issue dedicated to the subject. Among the options, dating a rocker, being under 20 years old, and being the spawn of a celebrity made the list according to Jezebel. We’ve got our own thoughts on what it takes to be an “It Girl” but we must warn all that accomplishing all these might just get you an STD and a trip to addiction rehab.
1. Crave a Shit Load of Attention. It’s the attention your parents never gave you cause they were too busy sniffing coke off of Fareah Fawcett’s ass during your quarterly P.T.A meetings. It’s the attention you crave when you hit the strip without a pair of coochy covers on. It’s the attention that makes you look sad enough to give up a “make me feel good” fuck to the first guy who looks your way. Believe me, guys are looking.
2. Suck Cock. Actually Suck a Shit Load of Cock. Like “Porn Star Trying To Break A Guinness World Record” Level Cock Sucking. Former geeky high school boys will pay attention to you if you do. The same boys who have no social life and a shit load of time to snap photos of people (rather than actually party with them) at clubs. The same boys who know HTML and aren’t afraid to blog it. The same boys who will upload your photos making you an “It Girl”. Doing so will guarantee Cory Kennedy fame within two face blasts. Be sure to avert your eyes.
Harley Viera Newton can It Girl. Can You?
3. Drink. A Lot. Drunk chicks dance, are loud as fuck, and get noticed at clubs. You should reek of alcohol every morning and wake up with random sploodge in your hair from all the photographers you blew the night before. (See tip number 2)
4. While You’re Drinking Snort Some Coke. Or Ecstasy. Or Heroin. Or Pixie Sticks. Seriously, drugs make you really, really, really cool. If you’ve been to rehab and you aren’t even old enough to vote you’re on the right track.
5. Look Like Jailbait. Or Better Yet, Be Jailbait. Underage girls get paparazzi and hipster photographers hotter than a 70% off sale at Urban Outfitters. Wax off all signs of pubescent hair and be sure to be slutty enough to get their attention but not slutty enough to seem like you know what your doing. A woman who’s actually capable of seducing someone freaks hipster photographers out and they’ll just blow their load before they snap your photo.
Cory Knows How to Be an It Girl
6. Stalk Dov Charney, Merlin Bronques, Cobrasnake or any other hipster with a camera then repeat steps 1 -5.
7. Shop, Work, and/or Pick Up Your Drug Supply from American Apparel. Seriously.
8. You + A Celebrity’s Dong + Video Camera with Night Vision = Instant “It Girl” Status.
Nudity Helps. ALLOT!!!
9. Don’t Weigh More Than The Thinner Olsen. Better yet, acquire an eating disorder like bulemia, anorexia, or that weird one from Sex and the City where the guy chews food but doesn’t actually swallow it. It Girls must be a size two or zero in order to get noticed and slip in and out of prison bars when their arrested for drunk driving/drug possession/smuggling Canadians across the US border.
10. Be White. Seriously.
11. Attempt To Be Something More Than An Over-Glorified Attention Whore. Consider modeling, becoming a DJ, or creating a t-shirt line. All require absolutely no skill whatsoever and will guarantee you get even more attention.
12. Skip The Higher Education Route. It Girls don’t need to be smart. They just need to be dumb enough to follow all these rules to a tee. Skip the community college application (did you really think NYU is an option when the web is littered with your half-coked out party images?) and just enroll in the school of hard cocks knocks.
Peaches Geldof Can It Girl With a Full Stomach. Can You?
13. Realize That There Is Only ONE Media Outlet That Gives A Fuck About You. Seriously, if it wasn’t for them, you wouldn’t exist so be sure to bend over backwards to appear on their Internet TV shows, support their yard sales, and pick up their dry cleaning while your at it.
Portia Freeman can do the It Girl. Can You?
14. Date Pete Doherty. Works everytime.
15. If All Else Fails There’s Always Lesbianism. It worked for Lindsay and it can work for you.
P.S. Before you all start claiming that I’m a woman hating, misogynistic, asshole let me state first and foremost that I am. If women want to accept a title that praises them for doing nothing more than dressing cute and getting photographed than they deserve to be shit on. If you truly believe in women’s empowerment then don’t support publications that insist on placing coked out, drunk whores on their covers, calling them “It Girls” or deeming their turds worthy of your attention. Let’s get real ladies.
On a side, if any of you want to be deemed “It Girls” by Fashion Indie, send us your photos and a small sentence on what the fuck you’ve done lately that makes you interesting. Dressing well helps (we are a fashion blog) but isn’t necessary. We’re looking for accomplishments like “Didn’t Drop Out of College”, “Just Hosted a Massively Cool Event”, or “Just Found a Cure for Male Pattern Pubic Baldness”. Send them to saynt@fashionindie.com and we’ll feauture you on the site.

Got a little funk on your junk? Got balls that are so smelly Cory Kennedy won’t even gargle them? Sounds like you need some Man Junk. Man Junk is a product that is specifically designed for cleaning your bean bags. Man Junk boasts that regular soap won’t clean your nuts like Man Junk, and that it will even boost your sexual confidence. The soap is even referred to as a “wingman” because it kills all bacteria and skin irritation leaving your crime scene smelling fresh and ready for action. Not only should this be given out by the gallon for free in Williamsburg, it may actually be a good product. Just like a guy doesn’t want to hook up with a girl who has a little extra cheese on her taco, no girl wants a dude with a little extra sour creme on his baked potatoes. So get out there get some Man Junk and clean your balls!
Thanks Jezebel.
