Many of you might recognize him from the Lady Gaga video clip: Born this way. He’s known around the world for all his tattoos and his zombie face. They call him Zombie Boy. Dermablend teamed up with him for their new cover up foundation product and I think it looks absolutely amazing! Who knew you could cover all those tattoos with foundation?

Alber Elbaz & Betsey Johnson Team Up For Christmas


For the past two years, John Galliano’s had the honor of decorating the Christmas tree at Claridge’s. The storied British hotel goes all out for the holiday season, starting with their whimsical, themed tree. This year, with Galliano out of the question, they’re turning to Lanvin’s Alber Elbaz. The designer’s sketch, at the top, shows a characteristically fun, colorful scheme and WWD reports that it will be “decorated with marionettes wearing Elbaz’s take on Claridge’s staff uniforms.” The tree will be unveiled on November 22nd. Meanwhile, Betsey Johnson’s doing the honors stateside, decorating the tree at the Plaza hotel. She’s paying tribute to Eloise with pink tinsel, garlands made of marabou and, in place of a star, an Eloise doll on top. The Plaza’s tree will be revealed on November 28th.

Kate Moss’ Little Sister Makes Modeling Debut




Yes, Kate Moss was the star of her own wedding, but Lottie, the supermodel’s thirteen-year-old sister, caused quite a stir—like that weekend’s very own Pippa Middleton. The Moss family is, of course, a very different kind of royalty so it was assumed by the fashion filled party that Lottie would turn to modeling when the time was right. That time appears to be now. A series of editorial-like images of Lottie, shot by Andrea Carter Bowman, just hit the Internet, which means it’s only a matter of time before she starts gracing magazine covers. Lottie may be gorgeous (shocker), but she looks quite different from her legendary sister. She has curves (though slight) and a more All-American look then the thoroughly British Kate. Since she’s not yet fourteen, there’s plenty of time for change (and puberty), but there’s no doubt we’ll be looking at that face for a very long time.

Check It Out: The Whole Versace For H&M Collection

The Versace for H&M Collection Lookbook just released, so now you can start calling dibs! I checked it out and I'll admit, I'm not that impressed. Some of the clothes are great like the leather embellished mini dress, but a lot of it looks really cheap. I know that fashionistas on a budget will go crazy for the whole collection, but we'll stay away from the horrendously printed leggings.

Miu Miu Adds Twenty Years


Fashion loves a controversy, but the recent trend of major brands using kids to front their luxury products morphed into a more international topic of conversation. Newspapers devoted a surprising number of words to research and opinion wondering what it all means, my parents asked why fashion was obsessed with children and a few influential women publicly wondered, “Why would I buy a $2500 dress from a twelve-year-old?” But, like trends on a runway, it took just a season for the tide to turn. Miu Miu, which probably caused more excitement than uproar for hiring fourteen-year-old Oscar nominee Hailee Steinfeld to front their fall campaign, just released their resort ads. This time, thirty-four-year old Guinevere Van Seenus is in front of the camera. Van Seenus, though by no means old in real life, is at the very far end of the modeling age spectrum (at least for those still modeling and not mogul-ing). Though it may be tempting—especially for anyone who’s anti-Fanning/Moretz/Steinfeld—to grant the move added significance, chances are that Miu Miu, like any brand, is anxious to appeal to all its customers while projecting a fresh image each season. They’re doing so by mixing models with actresses, young and, well, a little less young, and Bruce Weber’s Americana with Mert & Marcus’ high fashion shots.

Get The Celeb Look: Alexa Chung

There's a reason Alexa Chung is a Fashionista with a capital F. Besides having her own great style, she is always on top of the latest trends and is incredibly fashion forward. We spotted Alexa in a pair of burgundy, skinny jeans and a sweet polka dot shirt. She looked great. Burgundy and polka dots are two of the hottest trends this Fall, so leave it to Alexa to combine them together.

How To Get The Look:
-We love polka dots! They remind us of 50's glam and they can make any boring outfit so much more fun! We adore polka dots so much that we found two great tops at Topshop!

- Alexa definitely had her trend radar on when she bought these skinny jeans. Burgundy is one of Fall's hottest colors so be ready to see it everywhere. If you want to look as great as Alexa, you can find a pair of burgundy jeans at Topshop!
- A black oversized blazer is a must! If you don't have one you need to get one right away! You can match it with anything and it never goes out of style! Check out H&M.

- A thin black belt is also a wardrobe staple! We like this one from H&M.

- And who doesn't want to own a classic Chanel bag? It seems like every celeb has one and thankfully there's some great lookalikes at Asos that you can use until you have your big break and can buy a real one! There you go! It doesn't take that much to score one of Fall's trendiest outfits!

6 Beauty Tips To Get Your Skin Winter Ready

Cold weather, a dry climate, and windy days are our skin's worst nightmare. Even after just a few days of cold weather, our skin turns dry and dull... ugh. We really miss our summer glow, but we don't want to turn to tanning bed to get it back! So here are some great tips on how to keep your skin glowy when it's snowy.
1. Foam and gel cleansers can dry out your skin, so come winter, switch to a cream based cleanser. Also, make sure to use a rich moisturizing day cream that works with your skin tone, apply it right after you wash your face to keep the moisture in.

2. If you suffer from dry skin, stay away from powdered make up, it will just dry out your skin even more and make it look worse. Instead, go for a pigmented day cream or foundation, which will give you a really creamy complexion!

3. Indoor air can be just as drying as outdoor air, so make sure it isn't too dry inside. If the air inside is too dry you can get an air humidifier to help balance it out. And make sure to not over do it with the heater! Also, you can use a facial mist with moisturizing effects, just spray it every few hours, even over your makeup!

4. Always look for alcohol-free products, products that contain alcohol tend to dry them out!

5. Drink at least 8 cups of water a day, which will help your skin to retain it's moisture!

6. And make sure to give your hands and feet extra attention, products with shea butter, mineral oil, or tea tree oil are super moisturizing for your skin!
