Katy Perry Had Pizza Nails In ‘This Is How We Do’ And We Didn’t Even Know

by 28 mins ago

While it may be hard to get the imagine of Katy Perry clad in head-to-toe denim at the VMAs out of your head, there was a time when the most recent memories we had of her were in a pizza bathing suit, in her video for “This Is How We Do.” Thankfully, today Katy and her team released a behind the scenes video featuring the making of “This Is How We Do,” which gives us the deets on the pizza bathing suit and more. So much more.

Katy’s two primary inspiration sources for the video? Her love of “Tumblr and modern art museums.” Hey, Katy, we love both those things too–wanna hang and scroll through Tumblr sometime?

If you’ve seen the video, you know that Katy’s attraction to modern art is abundantly apparent. She reveals (while wearing her Mondrian croptop and skirk, natch) that she’s recently been “very drawn to modern art.”

Here, she bathes in a tub full of pearls, in an short black bob, which Equal parts Coco Chanel and Louise Brooks. How does Katy feel about this look? “Like a real G.”

Her canary yellow ensemble may be from Christopher Kane’s 2014 Resort collection, but the styling and hair are very ’60s mod. The opening sequence of Katy as a portrait in a modern art gallery is a recreation of legendary hair stylist Vidal Sasson’s ...

by 29 mins ago

New York Fashion Week definitely hit full steam over the weekend. Not only did Lady Gaga perform at a Harper’s Bazaar event, we found out what Miley and Jeremy Scott have been working on, and we got to see Nicki teach some models how to do the dance from “Anaconda.” And that’s not all, you guys. Even more of your favorite celebrities decided to grace us with their presence backstage, at all of the front rows, and after parties. Here are a few of our fave appearances from the past few days.

Uzo AdubaGetty


Actress Uzo Aduba posed backstage at the Vivienne Tam in a blood orange dress with black hexagonal detail, black heels and a small black clutch. All we’ve got to say is that the women of Orange is the New Black have been killing it at NYFW this year.

Lady Gaga Breaks Out Short Hair And A High Slit For New York Fashion Week

by 2 mins ago

Everyone is arriving at New York Fashion Week, y’all. First, it was Rihanna. Now, it’s Lady Gaga. Gaga shared some photos of herself and friends at the Harper’s Bazaar event we mentioned not too long ago. It was certainly worth the wait.

Lady GagaGetty Images


Gaga arrived to the event in a collared black and white Alexandre Vaultier gown, which, upon first glance, looks fairly sedate for the Gaga that we’ve all come to know. Once you take a second look, though, you notice that not only is the skirt of her dress high, it’s also sheer. Oh hey, Gaga–we see you.

Who was she hanging out with at the party? Donatella Versace, of course.

She also palled around with Carine Roitfeld, CR Fashion Book‘s editor and the woman behind Beyonce’s surfbort spread (thank you!) and Stephen Gan, creative director of Harper’s Bazaar and editor-in-chief of Visionaire and V Magazine. Maybe another Lady Gaga V Magazine cover is in the future? We can hope.

For the actual performance itself, Gaga switched into a high-collared leather sleeveless gown, and looked every bit a jazz singer, with her smokey eye, flash of jewels, and peek-a-boo bangs.

Alexa ChungGetty


Alexa Chung dazzled in a cream feathered and beaded dress, black patent leather Gucci boots, and a small, boxy purse to celebrate Christian Siriano’s launch of his debut fragrance in the New York’s Meatpacking district at the designer’s popup shop. Chung’s feathered dress speaks to the part of our hearts that loves both Phyllis Diller and Bjork’s swan dress.

Adam Levine, James Valentine, Behati Prinsloo and Heidi VersterGetty


At the Herring & Herring: Frame Launch Party, Adam Levine wore a white tee and some seriously distressed denim. He posed alongside his new wife, Behati Prinsloo—in a vintage Iron Maiden tee, no less—and, mysteriously, was holding a magazine with his mouth.

Joan SmallsGetty


Last but not least, our girl Joan Smalls was at Jennifer Fischer opening in a two-tone, layered printed dress. Needless to say, we are feeling that tiny, midsection cutout.

The Karl Lagerfeld Barbie Will, Obviously, Be Very Exclusive

by 5 mins ago

Barbie has been making waves lately. Not only does the style icon have a collection with Forever 21 coming out today, but she’s also been spotted jet-setting and posting snaps of her outfits on Instagram. Like all good fashion bloggers, her boyfriend, Ken, has been confirmed as Barbie’s unofficial photographer. Rumor has it that she’s going to make an appearance at all four major fashion weeks starting this week in New York. But the biggest news? Barbie has teamed up with Karl Lagerfeld and created a female doll in his likeness.

Karl Lagerfeld x BarbieVogue

Not surprisingly, mini Karl won’t be easy to get your hands on. The Karl Barbies will be produced in a super limited batch of 999 dolls, and will only be available at Karl Lagerfeld boutiques, Collette, Net-A-Porter, and thebarbiecollector.com. Each will be priced at around $200, and will be available for purchase on September 29. From what we’ve seen so far, the tiny Mattel Inc. x Karl Lagerfeld figurine will be dressed in a near replica of Uncle Karl’s uniform: a black and white suit with a tie, fingerless gloves, sunglasses, and a signature white ponytail.

No word on what possible accessories might come with tiny Karl, but I’m hoping it’s a tiny fan, a bottle of Diet Coke and, an even smaller Choupette.

MAC’s ‘Rocky Horror’ Collection Will Have You Doing The Time Warp

by 17 mins ago

Attention all geeks and ghouls: just in time for Halloween, MAC Cosmetics is releasing a Rocky Horror Picture Show themed collection in order to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the cult classic. The collection features lipsticks, lip pencils, blush, false eyelashes and more, all of which are packaged in the movie’s iconic disembodied red-lipped logo.

MAC x Rocky Horror collectionFacebook

Of the 21-piece collection, standouts seem to be the four shades of red lipstick (naturally) and iridescent pots of glitter. The latter, by the way, will help cover the tracks of your tears as you tap dance the pain away of having your biker boyfriend hacked apart by a pickaxe.

The collection will be online and in stores in October 2, 2014. See you at the makeup counter, you creatures of the night.

Miley Cyrus Is Pantsless And Poolside In New ‘V’ Magazine Photos

by 38 mins ago

Last week, we got a sneak peek at Miley Cyrus‘ furry V Magazine cover, which, between the bright blue bathing suit and pile of stuffed animals, was extremely memorable. The rest of the spread was revealed and, unsurprisingly, features a number of other pants-free and noteworthy snaps. “The Emancipation of Miley” was shot by Karl Lagerfeld and styled by Carlyne Cerf De Dudzeele, another heavyweight in the fashion industry, which means Cyrus gets to add another notch to her fashion belt.

Miley CyrusV Mag


Miley is a natural fit for the “The Rebel Issue,” given her metamorphosis from her child performer roots to the walking, talking water cooler topic that she is today. In one shot, Miley channels Twiggy in a pair of thigh-high Jeremy Scott for Adidas boots. Paired with a Moschino fur coat, Jeremy Scott lace-front shorts, and a Chanel watch, you have a look that is definitely not meant for the football field.

Miley CyrusV Mag


In another shot, Miley hangs poolside in a look certainly not intended to get wet. I mean, peep those serious eyelashes, fluorescent pink turtleneck by Bottega Veneta, and dental couture Patricia Field bag. I wouldn’t be surprise if the placement of said purse was an intentional nod to vagina dentata by a particularly cheeky De Dudzeele.

Charli XCX Is A ’90s Teen Dream At The VMAs

by 18 mins ago

Did you catch all of Charli XCX‘s looks at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards? No? Well come along with me on this journey.

Charli XCXGetty

Charli arrived on the red carpet in a yellow Moschino by Jeremy Scott tiger-print jumpsuit, which she accessorized with a Vivienne Westwood clutch and Nicholas Kirkwood shoes. We’re really into the tie-detail on her shoulder. It’s kind of sweet, and in no way diminishes the fact that Charli was wearing a tiger-print jumpsuit on the runway.

Jeremy Scott loves it, too. (Of course.)

Charli XCXGetty

As much as we loved Charli’s jumpsuit, we had to say goodbye as she changed into her performance outfit for “Boom Clap” for the VMA preshow. What is this Cher Horowitz realness? Let’s examine this real quick: Homegirl was wearing a sheer white top with white daisies embroidered on them with a baby-blue miniskirt, and white duster with a feather trim.

For a real ’90s moment, Charli’s band were wearing angel-printed tops.

Charli XCX and LordeGetty

Charli finished the night in yet another outfit. Her “Beyonce-watching/audience outfit” consisted of a lime green halter top and mini skirt set (again with the daisy detail!), a fluffy pink fur bomber with chains on the cuffs, orange sunglasses, and clear jelly sandals. Charli XCX, you (ha ha ha) are my teen dream. And the best part? She complemented her lewk with Lorde who just became the first female to win Best ...

A History Of Gwen Stefani Slaying The VMA Red Carpet: 1996-2014

by 19 mins ago

Now that the 2014 Video Music Awards is wrapped up, let’s take a look at all of the ‘fits that Gwen Stefani has rocked at the VMAs. If you’re doubting my credentials, just know that I am a card-carrying member of the Tragic Kingdom, and you’re in good hands. Let’s go!

1996: JUST A GIRL

No DoubtGetty


Gwen’s first appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards were in 1996 with, you know, her band No Doubt, I’m sure you’ve heard of them. I kid. Our girl Gwen showed up in some seriously shiny pants, a midriff-baring gold top, and a black cardigan with fur trim. Welcome to the VMAs, Gwen.

1997: OI TO THE WORLD

Gwen StefaniGetty


Gwen went for comfy casual at the 1997 MTV Video Music Awards. The platinum powerhouse wore a silver shell over a sheer Indian-inspired cover up (peep that gold threading), trousers and slip-on slides. This particular outfit was clearly on the heels of the “Oi To The World” video shoot. The best part? Gwen’s makeup. You’ll see this same look resurface later in 2000 in No Doubt’s “New” video. Trust me.

1998: INTERGALACTIC BABE

Gwen StefaniGetty


Chances are if you’ve ever done an idle search for “Gwen Stefani and “VMAs” you will have encountered this outfit at least once in your life. I see this outfit every time I close my eyes during VMA season. During the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards ...

Wait, How Exactly Did Jennifer Lopez Get In That Dress?

by 35 mins ago

First things first: Jennifer Lopez has a new album coming out (AKA) and a new single called “Booty” with a video directed by Hype Williams featuring our House of Style host Iggy Azalea. Second, Lopez killed it on the red carpet at the VMAs tonight. Homegirl was serving body and Las Vegas realness at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards. Girl, those cut outs. Can we talk? Thankfully, our Red Carpet Report host Rachel Antonoff was vibing on them too, and was kind enough to ask “Jenny from the block” what sort of prep she has to undergo to get into dat dress. For more J. Lo, you should definitely get into our Versace-themed episode from House of Style.
