If I’m not paying attention for the remainder of the day, nor a good portion of tomorrow, it’s because I’m still sidetracked by the new Nicholas Hoult spread in Flaunt magazine. I mean, is there anything in the world more distracting than the beautiful Hoult all kitted out in a bizarrely patterned trench coat and some other odd wares? Supposedly, according to Nicholas, there are some dropped-trou shots included in the actual magazine… Say, where does one go about purchasing Flaunt? [Celebitchy]

Pretty Ponies: 10 Perfect Celeb Ponytails

When the weather is warm and sticky, the last thing you want to do is wear your hair down. A typical ponytail or topknot gets old fast, so why not take a cue from one of these pretty ponytails? Tossed to the side or roughed up at the crown, your summer look can go from basic to bomb in seconds flat. Draw some inspiration from these 10 celebs …

Makeup Bag: 5 Subtle Glow-Boosting Bronzers

Exhibit A: I am not an expert on tanning, or anything even remotely having to do with tanning. My skin glows under those neon lights at the bowling alley. I am, however, sort of an expert (I flatter myself) on faking a healthy summer glow, when the last thing I am in actuality is healthy and/or glowing. Yep, I’m a bronzer connoisseur, and not Snooki-style — I’m all about all bronzers subtle, sheer, and “natural”-looking. Basically, anything that will help me to look less like I just clawed my way out of a mole tunnel. Whether you’re pale pale pale like I am, or just in need of a boost, these 5 bronzers will let the light in … Keep reading »

Style Stealer: Karolina Kurkova’s Motorcycle Jacket And Miniskirt

If you’ve seen “The Face,” then you already know that former Victoria’s Secret Angel Karolina Kurkova is, like, the coolest. (Naomi Campbell, on the other hand? Not the coolest. But she’s Naomi Campbell, so there’s that.) The model and mom seems ridiculously down-to-earth and relatable, aside from being, you know, one of the most famous faces in the world. Oh, and she doesn’t have a bellybutton. Anyway! I loooove this casual-meets-chic look, and although some of these pieces are pretty unique, it’s easy to recreate a similar look on the cheap. I’ll show you how… Keep reading »

“I’m never going [to the Met Ball] again. … It was so un-fun. It was boiling. It was too crowded. I did not enjoy it at all.”

— You hear that, Anna Wintour? Gwyneth Paltrow did not enjoy her time at the Met Ball, and she will not be attending next year. So, on that note, is there an empty seat I could fill? … What about an empty dress? There’s gotta be an empty dress. [New York Post]

Men! There are plenty of things about women that they don’t understand, but they really, really don’t understand what goes into our appearances. Sure, they sort of get why we might feel like we need concealer, or even lipstick. But when it comes to more nuanced beauty tricks, like filling in your eyebrows or using a blow-dryer, they are clueless. Here are 14 things that men will never, ever even begin to understand about our beauty regimens … [Clueless man image via Shutterstock] Keep reading »

David Bowie’s Latest Star-Studded Music Video Is Totally Amazing (And Probably NSFW)

Watch it!

David Bowie gets what David Bowie wants, and if that means having Marion Cotillard and Gary Oldman star in his latest music video, then by God, that’s what’s going to happen. The Thin White Duke is at it again with this impressive video for the titular track from The Next Day, which you probably shouldn’t watch at work. There’s a couple of boobs in there. Also, Marion as church whore is my new style muse. [Vulture]

“I was in the middle of auditioning, and I was mid-sentence when the casting director said, ‘Listen, kid. You should not be an actress. You are not pretty enough. You should go back to wherever you came from and you should go to school. You don’t have it.’ She was very blunt — I honestly think that she thought she was doing me a favor. … But it’s funny — and this is a testament to my parents and how they raised me — I wasn’t crushed. They had always instilled in me that it was way cooler to be an individual and to be unique and that you don’t want to blend in.”

— I don’t want to live in a world where Winona Ryder is not “pretty” enough to be an actress. Beyond being pretty, she’s also interesting and intelligent and lovely… but I suppose that matters significantly less when your worth is based largely upon how good you look on a two-dimensional screen. For the record, though, Winona looks ridiculously gorgeous on the cover of the May issue of Interview. [Us Weekly]
