Tag! The Birds

Faran — Wed, 16 May 2012 22:04:44 +0000

“Dear Faran,

A hand holds a birdie in Long Island City.

–Vanessa.”

Thanks.

Is that a description, or a cryptic clue to buried treasure? Still deciding in my mind…

Meanwhile, if you have graffiti, we want it!

Gaga is serving up a major Ginger Spice/Dolly Parton/Versace moment while she pageant-waves in Taipei. We kind of love it (and her lavender nails, too).

Discuss: Lindsay Lohan on Glee

Faran — Wed, 16 May 2012 17:50:49 +0000

We loved Linday Lohan’s glowing skin, great smile, and adorable black-and-white dress on last night’s episode of Glee.

But this isn’t the first time Ms. Lohan has been featured on the show.

During Gwyneth Paltrow’s first appearance, as sexy substitute Holly Holliday, she teaches her class some new Spanish words by having them repeat the phrase, “Lindsay Lohan is really crazy, right?”

Well, maybe that’s true.

But she also seems to be having a great hair day, a healthy sense of self-awareness, and a very funny reference to The Voice.

Good job, LiLo.

Happy Birthday, Megan Fox!

Our former cover girl turns 26 today!

The Transformers star has quite a few upcoming releases,
with cameos in The Dictator and Judd Apatow’s This is Forty (due out this Christmas).

Considering we’re used to seeing the actress do back-flips and eat high school students,
we’re pretty excited to see her test out her comedy skills.

Happy Birthday, Megan!
xoxo, NYLON

Special Delivery: Buy Bethany’s Urban Outfitters Collab!

Faran — Wed, 16 May 2012 16:49:57 +0000

You probably know by now by (since we told you so!) that

1) we love Best Coast long time

2) we love Bethany Cosentino

3) Best Coast’s Bethany Cosentino designed a collection with Urban Renewal and we love that, too.

The collab has been making the blog rounds, but in case you missed it… we had to let you know that the wait is over! You can officially buy it all (and with names like Rayanne/Cher/Elaine/Stevie/Liv we just might buy it all)… until it sells out, that is.

The Wedge Sneaker Goes Pink

Faran — Wed, 16 May 2012 15:04:28 +0000

This should be a “Separated At Birth” post comparing Ash’s popular “Bowie” wedges with Isabel Marant’s catwalk versions, which sell for about $700 and have been spotted on [insert-every-street-style-celeb-you-know-here].

But instead, it will be about how now, you can get the sneakers in pink.

They also come in blue, red, beige, and violet.

And unlike the Marant versions, they’re $250 and not sold out… yet.

Best Dressed: Laura Bailey in Chanel

Faran — Wed, 16 May 2012 14:51:53 +0000

Meet Laura Bailey, longtime British model and writer, and certified Chanel junkie.

Here she is at Versailles, wearing a Chanel ensemble including a cream silk shirt, a matching tie with a floral brooch, a black velvet skirt with cream piping, and a very gigantic pair of red shades.

We love this look because it’s a great example of Annie Hall Chic, updated for the current day.

We also love it because even if you don’t have a closet jam-packed with Karl Lagerfeld creations, you can still put together a similar outfit with basics from brands like Gap, J. Crew, Tommy Hilfiger, and Denim & Supply.

As for a giant, crazy, butterfly-inspired pair of sunglasses, these ones from Lumete are pretty fantastic.

PS: If you look closely, you can see a rainbow in the fountain behind Laura. Guess even the water likes her look!
