MinaPoe Evil Guest Doll Pendant: Love It or Hate It?

I recently heard about French designer Mina d'Ornano and her baroque sensibility.

I recently heard about French designer Mina d'Ornano and her baroque sensibility. Then I came across one of her pieces — this minaPoe Evil Guest Doll Pendant ($1,317). Yes, it's a doll necklace. An evil-doll necklace to be precise. I have nothing against dolls, even scary ones, but to wear one around my neck is not me. Is it you?

Nicky Hilton strolled down a street in West Hollywood in a look that was both pretty and casual. The short shorts kept her feeling cool, while the printed tank kept her looking cool. Her red Chanel bag and gladiator sandals aren't too shabby either. Shop similar pieces now.

eBay Find of the Week

I have a problem: my closet is bursting at the seams and I'm running out of storage ideas.

I have a problem: my closet is bursting at the seams and I'm running out of storage ideas. Luckily, a fellow clothes hoarder suggested I swap out my bulky wood and plastic hangers for these Joy Mangano Huggable Hangers, in silver/gray. Not only are they magically slip-proof, but they're super slim as well. In fact, my friend told me it will maximize my closet space — double time! Case closed.

The current bidding price is $9.99 and the auction ends on Monday, June 13. Good luck and happy buying!

Leighton Meester in Bright, Oversize Houndstooth: Love It or Hate It?

Leighton Meester is no stranger to pushing the fashion envelope.

Leighton Meester is no stranger to pushing the fashion envelope. For the screening of 500 Days of Summer in NYC, the Gossip Girl donned an oversize houndstooth shift dress and slick snakeskin peep-toe booties. The red and purple combo is a bold choice — I love it — but I think strappy sandals would look better with this outfit. What do you think of her in-your-face ensemble?
