Jeremy Scott’s got a pretty fantastic life. Not only has he appeared on an episode of House of Style, dressed all of our favorite artists, and rocked the red carpet in a super sweet banana yellow tux with tails (shirtless I might add) tonight at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards, but it looks like he’s got something major up his sleeve for New York Fashion Week (which is just around the corner). Scott remained coy about his new collection, but he did mention that he’ll be working with Miley Cyrus in some capacity on his new collection, centered on “cool kids” each with individualistic looks instead of a model army. Sounds just like Miley doesn’t it?

Yeah, you read that right. Charli XCX caught up with our Red Carpet Report host Rachel Antonoff to spill the tea on what she’s got under her Moschino by Jeremy Scott tiger-print jumpsuit. Spoiler alert: she’s a fan of #freethenipple. Be sure to watch Charli’s interview with Rachel below to see what her beef with underwear is.

So confession time, we’ve been scouring the red carpet and every website for pictures of Beyonce like it’s our job, because well it is. And it was worth the wait. Queen Bey arrived to the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards wearing a black lace and beaded Nicolas Jebran gown on the red carpet. If that name sounds familiar to you, it’s because he’s the same designer who worked on all Katy Perry’s “Dark Horse” outfits. This dress has everything, a super low plunging neckline, cut-outs, a lace boob window, what looks like rhinestone embellishments, sequins and some serious Dynasty-era earrings.

This small dose of perfection will have to tide us over before Beyonce slays us all with performance and acceptance of the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard tonight.

RIP Me. I’ll be writing my living will in the meantime.

It’s not the VMAs without Miley Cyrus, and she didn’t disappoint. Miley showed up wearing high-waisted trousers and a bandeau top from Maison Martin Margiela. And while it’s less bedazzled than the Dolce & Gabbana two-piece she wore last year, it’s similar in its pants and croptop situation.

It’s simple, it’s chic (you really can’t go wrong with an all-leather outfit, ask Ari for further confirmation). Extra points for selecting an outfit tonight that has pockets because practical.

I nominate Amber Rose for the Rose McGowan of 2014 Award. The model arrived in a silver dress by Laurel DeWitt that is seriously channeling the Jawbreaker actress. I’m sure you remember what I’m talking about. McGowan showed up to the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards in very little, and it appears that this year that the torch has been passed to Rose. Here’s to you, Amber Rose for doing the most by wearing the least.

So, here we have our first nearly naked VMA attendee. Will there be more? We’ll find out soon!

Rita Ora just gave us another preview of what she’ll be wearing to the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards. But this time it’s on her nails.

The “Black Widow” singer decked out her nails with tiny spiders over a flawless red lacquer nail polish.

Keep teasing us with more outfit spoilers, Rita! We’ll stand by.

We caught up with Iggy Azalea and Rita Ora during their VMA rehearsal last night, and naturally, we had to ask the platinum blonde pair what they were wearing for their “Black Widow” performance. Their response? “Lots of spider webs and rhinestones.” Count us in.

In the meantime, we’ll be scouring the web (hehehe) for more info and counting down the hours until Sunday.

And, um, Iggy, can you cop me one of those “Black Widow” varsity jackets? Byeeeee.

It seems that almost everyone has been doing the Ice Bucket Challenge, in order to raise both money and awareness for ALS. Online retailer Brands on Sale is selling this summer’s largest social media trend as a Halloween costume.

While we’ve got some issues on the construction of the costume: Do we have to hold the bucket above our heads the entire time? Can’t it just be suspended in the air? How annoying is it going to be carrying an ice tray all night? And we’re not entirely sure how long the shelf life of this particular ensemble is. The internet is a fickle mistress afterall. But if you choose to purchase your very own Ice Bucket Challenge costume, we hope that you’ll make a sizable donation to The ALS Association as well.

P.S. There are only 69 shopping days left until Halloween.

Looks like Vogue is stepping up in a big way. The magazine just shot rapper A$AP Rocky and his model girlfriend Chanel Iman together for their annual September issue. While they’ve each appeared in editorials before, both for Vogue and other publications, this is the first time they’ve been featured together. Also, it marks a push towards more diversity in the publication, which is huge since the industry has gotten some blowback for not enough variety in its casting.

From what we’ve seen on Chanel’s Instagram account, the shoot is definitely going for a Dirty Dancing vibe with A$AP swinging Chanel around like they’re both at a Catskills resort, but between you and me—looking at A$AP’s shoe game and Chanel’s flowy dresses I’m getting more of a “In The Closet” vibe. Either way, this is going to be amazing, and I’ll be staking out the magazine rack at the nearest Barnes & Noble. See you then.

Over the weekend, two of our faves: Katy Perry and Lady Gaga got their noses pierced. Well, Katy pierced her right nostril, and Gaga went up a gauge with her septum piercing. In light of these recent events, we’re re-examining the trend, which is making a comeback in a big way.

Quick History Lesson: The art of nose piercing has it roots in Eastern religion.

In India, the practice dates back to the 16th century, where the practice of piercing one’s nose connotes a young woman’s marriage status, family status and financial worth. It also has roots in Indian religion, where the piercing is not only seen as a way of honoring Parvati, the Hindi goddess of love, devotion and marriage, but also of Ayurvedic beliefs. The left nostril in Ayurveda is linked with the female reproductive organs, and is thought to ease menstrual pain, and to make childbirth easier, thus making it an ideal spot for nose piercings.

In Muslim culture, things are slightly more complicated. There are conflicting beliefs about whether or not it’s permissible to pierce and adorn one’s body according to Islam. Ultimately, though, the piercings are seen as visible shorthand to demonstrate certain cultural values associated with religion or social mores in eastern society.

In western culture, nose piercings don’t have any significance attached to them other than being decorative. They’re seen more as an ornamental fashion statement and a good way to upset your parents (sorry, mom). That’s not ...
