• Marc Jacobs has just inked a deal to do a line of beauty products with Sephora, the beauty retailer owned by LVMH — which also owns Jacobs's eponymous line as well as Louis Vuitton, the other brand Jacobs designs. The cosmetics line is in its infancy, so there's no price point or release date set as of now. "We currently are working on defining what Marc Jacobs cosmetics will be, what they'll say, what makes them distinctive," Jacobs said. "I think that will take some time, but the first meeting was good." [Fashion Etc.]
  

• Front-row darling Nicki Minaj has written a song about her experience during Fashion Week, in which she name checks not only Anna Wintour but also Oscar de la Renta. Quoth Minaj: "When I'm sitting with Anna, I'm really sitting with Anna / Ain't a metaphor punchline, I'm really sitting with Anna / Front row at Oscar de la Renta, posture / Ain't a b*tch that could do it, not even my imposter." The song, "Come on a Cone," is a track from her new album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, which debuted today. [The Fashion Spot]
  

• Not to be left out of all the Olympic-size fun Stella McCartney is having, Prada announced today that it will sponsor Italy's national sailing team in the upcoming games. The fashion house will furnish uniforms for both the team's athletes and its technical staff. [The Daily Telegraph]
  

• Simon Spurr, who left his eponymous clothing company just two days after being nominated for the CFDA award for menswear, still hasn't explained why he left — other than to say there were issues within the company that made it impossible for him to stay. But he's still hoping to win that award. "If they don't vote for me this year, they're not going to next year," he said. "It's now or never." [The Cut]
  

• The current number of pregnant Victoria's Secret Angels now stands at three, with models Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, and Lily Aldridge all expecting additions to their families in the coming months — and they have the baby bumps to prove it. [LilSugar]

Model Lily Aldridge and husband Caleb Followill touched down at LAX, where the pregnant beauty showed off her maternity and travel style all at once. Whether or not you're knocked up too, Lily's look is one that's totally easy to re-create for your next flight, and you probably already have the right pieces in your closet. The stylish mom-to-be started off with a cropped sweater from The Row — here's something less expensive — which she paired over a black tank and a loose-fitting army-green maxi skirt. The juxtaposition between the long skirt and cropped sweater, and the oatmeal and army-green color combo, really worked together to create a unique ensemble. This look can also work with different colors, like a black maxi skirt with an ivory cropped sweater or a gray skirt with a navy sweater, and so on.

>> After recent news that Alessandra Ambrosio is pregnant comes word that fellow Victoria's Secret angel Lily Aldridge is expecting as well. Aldridge, 26, is reportedly about three months along, and, like Ambrosio, was already pregnant when she walked the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show back in November. This will be the first child for Aldridge, who married longtime boyfriend — and Kings of Leon front man — Caleb Followill last May.
