- ”People have never looked so ugly… We are so conformist, nobody is thinking. I’m a fashion designer and people think ‘what do I know?’ but I’m talking about all this disposable crap. So I’m saying buy less, choose well, make it last.” — delightful harridan Vivienne Westwood. [Guardian]

- Speaking of delightful harridans, these paper dolls of Dame Maggie Smith‘s sublime Dowager Countess from Downton Abbey are everything. Ever. [Vulture]

- America’s Next Top Model is still happening. Now in its 18th cycle, this time around it’s a “British Invasion” with seven British models versus seven American models. Sort of like a 21st century Revolutionary War with bikinis and smizing. [The Cut]

- Proving once again that you indeed have to pay the cost to be the boss, Britney Spears had to pay an undisclosed amount to Brand Sense for cutting them out on a secret deal she had with Elizabeth Arden. [ONTD!]

- The Marni for H&M lookbook, y’all. [Fashionologie]

- Stella McCartney staged a magic show and a flash mob during her elegant dinner party with a little help from her friends Shalom Harlow, Alexa Chung, Amber Valletta and Yasmin Le Bon. Kate Moss was there but she didn’t do shit except throw shade at everyone. [Styleite]

- And finally, Whitney Houston was laid to rest this weekend and I think this serves as a very fitting tribute.
