Madewell Fall Lookbook 2012

We got our first taste of Madewell's Fall 2012 back in April, but if ever there was a way to prove the cool factor in this collection, it's in Madewell's perfectly styled Fall lookbook. Mastering the art of effortless layers, girl-meets-boy appeal, and the style quirks of traditional Fall clothing turned on its head, Madewell offers up the season's essentials in bold hues, clever prints (like a leopard-print grandpa cardigan), and staple denim. It's the best kind of tomboy dressing — pastel tulip skirts paired with plaid button-downs and field boots — and a woodsier edge, thanks to cozy knit hats, lumberjack-inspired jackets, and cheeky wool sweaters. Read on for our must-have pieces, then click through to get a glimpse of the whole collection.

  • This varsity jacket has just the right sporty vibe to toughen up all of our Fall dresses.
  • This adorable sheep-printed sweater tops our list with its quirky style sense and slightly vintage feel.
  • We love the slightly '70s feel of this look, and we're adding the felted fedora to our wish list.

Diane, Eva, Freida, and More Hit the Cannes Film Festival Red Carpet in Ultraglam Looks


Updated 05/16/12 2:30 PM · Posted by · 3 comments

The Cannes Film Festival is off to an impossibly chic start, thanks to the likes of official jury member Diane Kruger, Eva Longoria, and Freida Pinto. These A-list starlets have pulled out all the stops on their French Riviera panache, and tonight's red-carpet arrivals at the Moonrise Kingdom premiere and opening ceremony gala were solid styling proof. After Diane's sexy Versus minidress appearance earlier, we were totally swept away by her altogether serene aqua drape-shouldered Giambattista Valli creation. To add to the glamour, Eva stunned in an ornate Marchesa gown, complete with decadent tulle train, Freida kept it fresh in an embellished pink Michael Angel number, and Jessica Chastain opted for a minimalist chic Alexander McQueen dress. There's more where that came from — and since this is just the beginning of 11 days' worth of sunny celeb red-carpet style, be sure to keep checking our Cannes who-wore-what roundup for even more glamorous film fest appearances.

We've all been told about the importance of a good night's sleep. But just how important are those ZZZs? Well, think of it this way: the average person spends one-third of their lifetime sleeping. That's a lot of time on your mattress! So, isn't it about time you start investing in some good sleep?

In the past, buying a brand-new mattress might have seemed too expensive, but with the new TEMPUR-Simplicity™ mattress, you can enjoy Tempur-Pedic comfort and contouring support at a surprisingly affordable price. Yes, that means you never have to troll the "Free Stuff" section of Craigslist in search of a mattress again. Also, the 10-year warranty takes the worry out of your purchase.

See the Outlandish Crowns Mulberry, Lanvin, and More Designed for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee


Updated 05/16/12 1:00 PM · Posted by · 0 comments

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, they're giving us a look at the crowns designed for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.

Queen Elizabeth has long been considered a woman of many hats–and she’ll soon be adding many more to her burgeoning collection of (mainly pastel) headwear.

In honor of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, Harrods has tapped thirty-one of the biggest names in fashion–including Mulberry, Valentino, and Lanvin–to design revamped versions of the St. Edward’s Crown, the fancy-pants topper Elizabeth wore during her coronation way back in 1953.

And while there’s maybe a little too much crushed velvet for our taste, there’s also at least one fuzzy Jamiroquoi hat (Cavalli), one tiny Corgi (Paul Smith), two life size snakes (Bulgari and Boucheron), and what appears to be a crown made entirely of that caviar nail polish (Mulberry).

All the designs will be on display at Harrods in London starting today–but if, like us, you’ll be on the wrong side of the pond for all the jubilation, here are fourteen of the new crowns via Vogue UK. Cheers, m’dears.

See How Style-Setting Celebrities Bring the Heat in Hot Pink

Celebrities Wearing Hot Pink

With all the bold pops of color to choose from this season — yellow, lime, aqua — is there any one more classic that hot pink? Not only did we spot the hue in Spring collections from Tory Burch, Nanette Lepore, and more, but some of our favorite style-setting celebs have been incorporating the color into their wardrobes as well. Though the standard for red-carpet fixtures like Nina Dobrev, Caroline Sieber, and Lindsay Ellingson is to pair these brights with neutral black or white, you can always take it a step further by mixing your brights together — think a hot pink top with bright blue trousers, or an electric yellow blouse tucked into a pink pencil skirt. For some more chic examples, we've rounded up 10 of our favorite recent celebrity examples of hot pink done right. Click through to see how they do it, then shop our editors' picks.
