Michael Jackson

FABTV: Michael Jackson "Beat It"

I interrupt this regular special programming to bring you a classic.

I interrupt this regular special programming to bring you a classic. A masterpiece. An ode. The king of pop passed away today at the age of 50. No one had style, flavor, and attitude like Michael. Flashback: my older brother in a red studded nylon jacket and glittery glove when it was all the rage — he was about 9 years old. And Thriller! Again, the brother, and a righteous (and easy DIY!) Halloween costume. We were all there. We were all mesmerized. This video tells another great MJ story — he was such a great visual maestro — the story of rival gangs who loved to accessorize and pop their collars. Also notice Michael's fresh piano tee pajamas. May Michael, his muse, and his videos rock on.

Rachel Zoe was spotted walking around Soho looking chic and classic in denim, white and black. Her extra long wide-leg trousers cover her platform shoes and her cropped leather jacket added some definition to her oversized tee. Though her Hermes Birkin bag isn't available online, this Prada one is just as classic so shop it now!

Guess the Jeweler by the Gems!

I own more adornments than I care to divulge, but that won't stop me from buying more.

I own more adornments than I care to divulge, but that won't stop me from buying more. Hey, it comes with the job. In fact, I just purchased these Bing Bang Cherokee Earrings for an upcoming wedding — they'll go perfect with my long, lavender maxi. As an accessory connoisseur, it's easy for me to identify jewelry designers by their trademark styles. Would you like to get Fab certified? Take my quiz to see if you can match the jeweler by the gems!

Whitney Port's Groovy Polka-Dots: Love It or Hate It?

Whitney Port never ceases to amaze me with her eclectic style.

Whitney Port never ceases to amaze me with her eclectic style. For Gen Art's 15th Anniversary Benefit in NYC, Whitney channeled her inner Cher and donned a groovy polka-dot dress by Pamella Roland, bronze heels, and an Anna Sheffield Dauphine cocktail ring. The large silver dots and exaggerated bell sleeves demand attention, but I'm not sure if I'm feeling it — a little too over the top. What are your thoughts on Whitney's Warhol-inspired outfit?
