Preppy meets cool at Rugby.com. Offspring of Ralph Lauren, Rugby.com offers a laid-back approach to preppy style. Classic (and sometimes stuffy) Ivy League staples are given an overhaul with bright colors and updated cuts. You can find an array of retailored polos, knits, sweaters, oxfords, chinos, denim, and, of course, rugby shirts that won't bore you. My favorite is the madras patchwork blazer — quite Fabtastic.
I recently visited Anthropologie and was sidetracked by a fabulous book: What Would Jackie Do? An Inspired Guide to Distinctive Living by Shelly Branch and Sue Callaway ($13). If you admire Jackie O as much as I do, you will fall in love with this book. It offers fun life and fashion tips based on what the authors have learned from Jackie's grandiose life. An example? Book your flight through an airport where the agents are apt to be less savvy about recognizing Prada. Smart!
Does Marc Jacobs have a new obsession? First Sri Lankan songstress M.I.A. DJed his runway after party last month, and now she appeared in the ad campaign for his Marc by Marc Jacobs diffusion line, so it sure seems like it.
Her colorful, funky on-stage style complements the bold background prints and vivid colors appearing in these Juergen Teller-shot ads. Overall, do they make you smile? Or do they hurt your eyes?

Cobalt blue is one of the Fab colors for Spring, and so far, it's been living up to that reputation.
This cute pintucked cami top ($14) may not be new, but it has the right idea — just look at that bold blue. The shape is flirty and effortless, so it also caters to the underwear as outerwear trend, too. Killing two fashion birds with one cami.
Love It or Hate It? Gwyneth Paltrow Chops Her Locks
Gwyneth Paltrow has bid adieu to her long, sleek blond mane, changing things up with wavy, shoulder-length hair. It's great to see a fresh new cut on her, but I'm not sure about the center part — guess we'll just have to see how she styles it. What do you think of Gwyneth's new haircut?
Singer and actress Selena Gomez posed for pictures at the 2009 American Music Awards with a pretty pink smile on her face. She took advantage of the occasion and went glam; wearing a Talbot Runhof sequin dress with black strappy heels.
