Ninety-year-old designing legend and quirky lady about town, Iris Apfel, cuts such a unique figure, she was offered the opportunity to design not one but two accessories collections last year, for HSN and Alexis Bittar, respectively. Now YOOX.com is getting in on the Apfel love; they’ve commissioned her to create another line of beautiful baubles, priced between $45 for low-end pieces and $2,800 for luxury rhinestone encrusted bracelets, necklaces and rings. But! That’s not all. Iris fanatics can also pick up a piece from her own personal collection — as in, items she’s collected and actually worn over the years — from the site, too.

BOO! The Frisky’s 6 Favorite Horror Movies
It’s a scary world out there for us ladies sometimes. That’s why I love a good horror movie for contained fear and excitement. There’s nothing like sitting down in the darkened theater for two hours of sensory overload and raw adrenaline, only to leave when it’s all done in one piece. It’s like paying $12 for two hours of therapy. Keep reading »

Halloween Inspiration Board: Clementine From “Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind” & 4 Other Character-Driven Costumes
Too many guys think I’m a concept, or I complete them, or I’m gonna make them alive. But I’m just a fucked-up girl who’s lookin’ for my own piece of mind; don’t assign me yours.
Michel Gondry’s riveting 2004 film “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” has a special place in my heart. It manages to be all at once uplifting, darkly hilarious, and depressing in its aching realism. Jim Carrey (as Joel Barish) is like you’ve never seen him before, a rare, thought-provoking talent who feels, really feels, the deeeeep misery of anyone who has ever fallen madly in love only to have their heart shattered. His girlfriend Clementine, portrayed so effectively by Kate Winslet, is neurotic and impulsive, but you’ll soon learn that there is so much beauty to be found in instability. The disjointed manner of the film sees Clementine through a rainbow of hair colors, ages, and personalities, each more unhinged than the last. First, find out how to channel her cavalier, colorful persona this Halloween, and then check out four other character-driven Halloween costumes. Keep reading »

24 Crazy Celebrity Face And Name Tattoos
Demi Moore has some competition. No, not Sara Leal, the chick Ashton Kutcher supposedly slept with. I’m talking about Ashton’s biggest fan, a young lady from Brazil with a fresh tattoo in tribute to her favorite celebrity. “Ashton Kutcher I love you, love is forever fan love you” is tattooed on her back and she tweeted the above photo of her ink at the “Two and a Half Men” star, writing, ”This is a way of expressing my love for @aplusk.” Ashton’s response? “All I can say is wow.” I suspect he had much more to say to his lawyer when he called him about getting a restraining order. (I kid, but seriously, Ashton, you might want to consider it.) At least he didn’t point out that the sentiment doesn’t even make complete sense; after all, it’s too late for that now. Keep reading »
Jamie Bell & 8 Other Celebs Talk Oral Sex
Men, meet your new guru, and ladies, meet your new hero — Jamie Bell. The actor, who you probably remember best as the lead in “Billy Elliot” and as Evan Rachel Wood’s boyfriend, had a lot to say about cunnilingus when being interviewed by British GQ. Like, couldn’t stop talking about the importance of it. For example, when the magazine asked him for his thoughts on how to impress a woman, he said:
“Buy her flowers? Take her home on the weekend to meet your mother? No. Let’s cut to the primal — be good in the sack. [Slaps thighs] Have an understanding of what’s going on down there and have fun, awesome sex.”
Then later on, when asked about a skill every guy should possess, he didn’t suggest being able to grill a good steak or change a tire. Nope, he was down to talk about going down — again.
“Skill? You know what I’m going to say. A man should have a good understanding of a vagina. He should be good at oral sex. On a woman. … Making fires and pleasing a woman. In the vaginal area.”
As a woman, I would like to agree. Great advice, Jamie. What are you doing later? [GQ UK]
Meanwhile, here are eight other celebs talking about oral sex.

October 20: What Are We Wearing Today?
BuzzMedia (The Frisky’s parent company) owns a number of different celeb gossip sites, and while I’ve been in LA I’ve been sitting among these gossip fiends and have been privy to a bunch of their “theories.” Whether they are true, who knows, but for example: Jessica Simpson is totally pregs and shopping the story around to tabloids. She’s just waiting for the right price to officially admit she’s knocked up and not with a burrito baby. Also, Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes’ “relationship” must be a publicity stunt because if they wanted to keep it low profile they could. Lastly, the consensus is that Lindsay Lohan has issues. Okay, that’s not a theory. That’s just true.
Anyway, click onward to see what The Frisky staff is wearing today!
