Try a White-Hot Nail Art For Summer

Amp up your striking white nail polish look with gold studs at the base for a simple but impactful touch. Opaque white nail polish packs quite the punch, but it also tends to show mistakes a lot more than other polish hues. So to make sure it looks its best, first file your nails for a perfect shape and trim your cuticles to ensure clean lines around the edges.

To create the look, I started off with Butter London Nail Fertilizer ($18) as a nutrient-rich base coat. Then, I painted on two coats of Chanel Le Vernis in Eastern Light ($30) for pure white coverage. While the polish was still wet, I added a gold stud from The New Black Rock and Roll Royalty Set ($24), which comes with various polish hues and a bottle of edgy accents, including gold studs and black and clear rhinestones. To finish, I topped this look with Essie Good to Go ($8) to seal in the stud and give my nails a glossy finish. If you have any messy edges, go back with a brush dipped in polish remover to clean up any stray polish.

17 of the Most Outrageous Things Karl Lagerfeld Has Ever Said

The world according to Karl Lagerfeld is one we know well, thanks to the designer's frequent one-liners, ruminations on just about anything, and general penchant for honesty above all else.

The world according to Karl Lagerfeld is one we know well, thanks to the designer's frequent one-liners, ruminations on just about anything, and general penchant for honesty above all else. The designer has become as notorious for his candid, and sometimes controversial, interviews as he has for his work at Chanel and Fendi. And French publisher Flammarion plans to capitalize on it with a book called, Le Monde Selon Karl, or The World According to Karl, in English. Slated to debut this Fall, the book will include some of Lagerfeld's best quotes, penned by Patrick Mauriès, and set alongside 80 illustrations by Charles Ameline. Lagerfeld is reportedly happy with the final product, despite his lack of involvement with the project.

The best part, though? You don't have to wait until Fall to get your fix. Herein find our favorite Karl-isms, a zany mix of the most outrageous and the most colorful things the Kaiser has said (so far).

The Resort 2014 collections certainly warrant a closer look, right down to the very last detail. But it's not just the never-ending supply of lightweight fabrics and vacation-ready pieces that make these collections ripe for Summer styling; the shoes, the bags, and the glittering jewels do the bulk of the statement-making.

Ombré colorways provide new meaning to bright palettes, floral-embroidered tapestry bags double as chic beach totes, already-sexy pointy-toe pumps are transformed with even sexier cutouts, and modified takes on the evening clutch aren't limited to graphic motifs and raffia finishes. See the best of the Resort 2014 accessories here in the gallery.

Chanel Sculpting Eyebrow Pencil Review

What We're Sweet On: The Eye Pencil You Didn't Know You Needed

When you think of an eye pencil, eyeliner is probably the first (and maybe the only) thing that comes to mind.
by

When you think of an eye pencil, eyeliner is probably the first (and maybe the only) thing that comes to mind. But considering I'm a liquid liner user, the Chanel Sculpting Eyebrow Pencil ($29) is the only eye pencil in my everyday makeup bag. I love that it not only has the perfect amount of brow pigment on one end — it goes on light, but totally buildable — but it also has a spoolie brush on the other end. This makes grooming and filling in my brows fast and easy.

The one makeup artist tip I love is to find a color one shade lighter than your natural color is so it subtly shades without making it overpowering. And in case you think you don't really need to fill in your brows, once you try it, you won't feel the same without nicely groomed brows.

Last night's The Bling Ring premiere in LA brought out leading lady Emma Watson, as well as many other stylish stars. While we await the movie's debut on June 14, let's assess the spotlight-stealing red carpet looks. Emma's tweed Chanel minidress balanced chic with flirty, and embellished peep-toes and a Swarovski black crystal clutch amped things up. Gwen Stefani delivered her signature brand of bold in a white crop top and black high-waisted leather pants, while Dianna Agron got girlie in a little black ruffled Louis Vuitton dress. Also in Louis Vuitton, Chloë Sevigny's soft-pink lace ensemble fused light with dark beautifully. So now that you've seen them all, tell us: who brought it at the Bling Ring premiere?

We saw bright pink lashes backstage at the Donna Karan Spring 2013 show, and now there are plenty of new colored mascaras hitting Summer makeup counter displays. From yellows and blues to pinks and greens, there's a wand for painting your lashes, too.

The L'Été Papillon de Chanel collection was inspired by the iridescent hues of butterflies' wings, and the limited-edition Inimitable Waterproof Mascara ($30) comes in a range of blues and a yellow shade. YSL's False Lash Effect Shocking Mascara ($30) debuted yet another color in the range, Jade Black, a deep forest green. And if you were hoping to re-create the pop of pink from Donna Karan, Hypercolor Brow & Lash Tint from Anastasia Beverly Hills ($22) should be your go-to tube. It comes in bright shades of pink, purple, and blue. And to really enhance your colored lashes, try rimming your eyes with a matching liner.

Chanel's Favorite Polishes Throw Us Into a Bizarre Love Triangle

Chanel is celebrating their cult-classic polishes in quite the creative way: a visually stunning new video. The film introduces Les Vernis Couleurs Culte De Chanel: five of the brand's polish shades that are so popular, they have a nearly rabid fan following. Beige, Particulière, Pirate, Rouge Noir, and Black Satin dance along perfectly manicured fingers to the refrain of New Order's "Bizarre Love Triangle." And with nearly subliminal messaging at its finest, each hand spells out a letter of the polishes' namesake.

A visit to Chanel's online shop reveals the five shades, $27 each, all available for purchase, and beckons the customer to "join the cult." And with colors this gorgeous paired with British new wave music, you'll be reaching for the Kool-Aid in no time.

Miley Cyrus's New Sexy Signature Style: Black and White Jumpsuits

So far, 2013 has been a big fashion year for a certain Miley Cyrus.

So far, 2013 has been a big fashion year for a certain Miley Cyrus. She's been photographed in Chanel, Valentino, and Balmain (pictured from left to right at a Ryan Seacrest event, the Maxim Hot 100 Party, and the Billboard Music Awards) and is well on her way to achieving that one thing every style icon has mastered: a signature look. She's recently skipped over the majority of the color spectrum, instead gravitating toward black and white accented with a third color by way of her red lips. It gets more specific, too: beyond loving the two-toned combo, Miley's showing a serious propensity for pantsuits rather than more common red carpet dresses.

The singer's image has progressively gotten sexier as she's moved past her Hannah Montana stage, and fashion-wise, her cropped 'do seemed to usher in a whole new era of envelope-pushing fashion. Whatever the case, we love that she's turned into a dresser to watch.
