How Much Would You Pay To Be A Fashion Intern?
Let’s face it. Getting an internship at one of the big names in fashion takes connections. Like it or not, only half of what matters is one’s drive.

Money that some of the most driven, intelligent, and fashionable potential interns don’t have.
Surprise! Steve Madden Didn’t Read The Bible In Prison

$50,000: The Cost Of A Lifetime Of Good Hair
It’s no mystery that the cost of beauty adds up. Especially when it comes to hair, which, like it or not, can’t be covered up like a pimple with a dab of concealer. In fact, women are so sensitive about their hair that a study conducted by hair powerhouse Pantene found that 54% of women have bigger issues with their locks than with their boyfriends.

Product Junkie: 8 Saviors For A Lazy Day
The snooze button is my best friend, I’m lucky if I’m out of bed by 9:30am, and I only wash my hair two or three times per week, avoiding the elbow grease it takes to properly blow-out and style my frizz-prone waves.

Gucci’s futuristic cut-out dress with metal detailing has been all over the place this morning thanks to 17-year-old Karlie Kloss’ spread in Numero magazine.

Christian Siriano Featured In Crain’s 40 Under 40
Crain’s magazine’s annual 40 under 40 feature is a veritable list of who’s who in New York. The list includes honorees from industries as varied as finance, hospitality, politics, and new media, but it doesn’t often highlight the up and comers in the fashion industry — which is why it was a pleasant surprise to see Project Runway alum Christian Siriano featured right up top.
Taylor Made: 4 Muses That Prove It’s All In A Name
Sure, it’s not exactly Shakespearian. But if fashion’s cardinal rule of threes (and fours) is to be believed, it seems lately there’s something to the name Taylor. Of course, it’s not quite up there with, say, a Kelly or a Birkin, but try and think of the last time you went anywhere — a newsstand, a grocery store, even the dentist’s office without experiencing some sort of run-in with this moniker-of-the-moment.

Or a personal sketch by the late designer of an Alexander McQueen coat from his final collection? Since, let’s be honest, that’s not looking likely for my future or my paycheck, it was exciting to see that there’s an Yves Saint Laurent coloring book I could own, complete with sketches by the iconic designer.
