02.16.11Dominatrix Perfection at Marc Jacobs RTWOn the opposite end of the hair spectrum from yesterday's post on purposefully fugging up your hair, are the sleek and smooth ponytails at Marc Jacobs Fall 2011 Ready To Wear. The severe dominatrix inspired ponytails complimented the tough yet ladylike latex, lace, and polka dot fitted silhouettes. There were plenty of tight chin straps and Stephen Jones' vinyl berets perched atop the models' heads, so the hair needed to be simple, clean, and perfectly executed. Stylist Guido for Redken told Into The Gloss: "The hair has a kind of perverse, dominatrix perfection. It’s pulled up, very high, ...

01.03.11Kim K Goes GlamIn Glamour's new "Guy Issue" Kim Kardashian dishes to Katie Couric on everything from her career and dating life to her famous sex symbol status. Photographed on her thirtieth birthday in NYC by Terry Tsiolis, Kim graces the cover in Tom Ford pajamas, a La Perla bra, and a Sarah Chloe ring. In the opening spread, she's seen in a Dolce & Gabbana bustier with matching skirt and Glamour’s own horseshoe charm necklace. In the pages that follow, she dons a Marc Jacobs dress (so pretty!). I like that Kim's hair is super dark without any highlights or anything. I ...

08.09.10Rachel Dies For FashionYou know Rachel Zoe's catch phrase on The Rachel Zoe Project "I die"? Well, the people over at Harper's Bazaar got wise and created an editorial where Rachel is killed by top American designers in the September issue. Rachel poses with Vera Wang, MichaelKors, and Marc Jacobs as they go in for the kill. "I only want to kill Rachel when I don't land one of her fabulous clients for the Oscars!" says Vera Wang.

02.20.10Boys On The Brain: Cole MohrCole Mohr is one of my fav boy models of all time. Here are two snaps of him backstage at menswear Fashion Week, photos by Nicolas Ripoll. The tattoo on his chest says, April May June. He has a bunch of other tattoos, including the word "Texas" on his inner left forearm and "Huston" on his inner right forearm, which is where he's from. Cole posed for Marc Jacobs fall/winter 2008 campaign. Too pretty boy for you or just right? Continue Reading...

01.05.10Marc Jacobs EngagedMarc Jacobs and Lorenzo Martone got hitched engaged! The fancy party in St. Barts hosted by Larry Gagosian, with guests including Russell Simmons and girlfriend Porschla Coleman? An engagement party not a wedding, says Marc Jacobs. Supposedly a wedding is planned for March. Still: aw. Check out their cake topper. Marc in a skirt! Loves.

11.16.09Books On The BrainI love this photo of Amber Valleta from October's InStyle. It reminds me of the good old days on Lost when island-bookworm Sawyer (Josh Holloway) read whatever Flight 815 had packed in their suitcases, including Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret, which he called "predictable". Hee. Amber Valleta was photographed for InStyle by Jenny Gage and Tom Betterton wearing a Marc Jacobs dress and cuff.

09.24.09Non-Blair Headbands for FallI've wanted my hair out of my face lately. I am growing it out, and it's actually starting to get long again. I don't want to wear it in a ponytail every day, though. A headband is a good option for days when I want to wear it down, but don't want it falling into my eyes every few seconds. I love headbands, but not the Gossip Girl Blair Waldorf type. I want something a little edgier. Maybe like the big bow headbands Marc by Marc Jacobs showed during fashion week? Hmm... Interestingly, I found a modified Marc by Marc Jacobs version on ...

09.15.09Runway Report: DetailsBows + patterns were major at Marc by Marc Jacobs. Max Azria showed... hairnets? File this under: do not try this at home. Carolina Herrera did really simple, pulled back hair and pretty makeup. This intricate, silver beading was wrapped through the model's bun. It adds texture and dimension to an otherwise casual style. I really like it. Continue Reading...
