Which I did, and ridiculous, amazing, crazy things have happened. I’ve cried my way through a Marc Jacobs’ show and giggled throughout Chanel’s. I’ve met people whom I’ve admired since I was 13 and decided that it’s ok to drop $30 on a magazine because I see the hard work that goes into it. I’ve probably spent more time looking at models than any young woman should, but I can tell them all apart! I’ve also had the chance to write about whatever I want, however nutty the topic may be, and I’ve learned more than you can possibly imagine. I’ve also enjoyed a front row seat to the kind of insane ascension of fashion blogs and online media in this industry, but, not to get too sentimental, it’s the people I’ve met who’ve made my time at Fashionista so incredible. Between my brilliant co-editors, my stable of lovely interns and the industry veterans who’ve done everything from sneak me into shows to answer my silly questions to agree to ridiculous interviews, this would’ve been impossible without you all. And of course, you guys, for reading Fashionista everyday. So thanks, thank you everyone for everything and especially, right now, to Lauren who I know will only make Fashionista bigger and better. See you at Elle! |

She replaces Randi Peck, who’s moved over to ID, a PR firm that reps celebrities like Sarah Jessica Parker. (At Theory, Peck’s title was Director of Public Relations.) Sharf’s at the helm of both Theory and sister brand Helmut Lang, the latter of which makes more sense in terms of the red carpet. It’s doubtful we’ll see Theory at the Oscars any time soon. However, both brands are good to push for more paparazzi-style shots. Getting a relatable star like Reese Witherspoon in a Theory button down or blazer–or a Helmut Lang leather jacket–is a worthwhile endeavor, especially if she’s snapped while wearing it on a shopping trip or grabbing Starbucks. There’s a huge chance a well-circulated photograph like that will translate into real sales. |

Now, Daily Front Row reports that Abaeté, the dress label best-known for its shoe collaboration with Payless, has closed. Production of designer Laura Poretzky’s collection ceased in October 2009. While the other two brands mentioned had somewhat of a cult following, we were never really sure who actually wore Abaeté. The mid-priced dresses were cute, but they certainly weren’t life-altering in terms of style or design. And the fact that we didn’t realize Abaeté was absent in the first place also says something about its lack of staying power. But regardless, there’s no doubting Poretzky had some fans out there. We wish her the best and hope she’s making a lot of money doing something else. |

AnOther Magazine Debuts Its First “Digital Cover Star” Posted: 14 May 2010 01:00 PM PDT
DazedDigital’s one of the top magazine sites in the UK, and though AnOther magazine’s site launched quietly just a few months ago it’s offered a consistent stream of original content on brand with the magazine (one of our favorites). Now, they’re building upon their success with digital cover stars, a feature in which they profile those worthy of a print cover. But everything’s online only which means both film and pictures can play a part in the interview. Charlotte Gainsbourg’s up first. The actress/singer’s profiled by Jessica Hundley and stars in a short film by Melodie McDaniel that captures her LA hotel room stashed with rows and rows of Balenciaga’s pre-fall collection. |

Would You Wear a Schitbag? Yeah, That’s Really What It’s Called. Posted: 14 May 2010 11:01 AM PDT
But the Schitbag? We’re not so sure it’s something we can get behind. Here’s a smidgen of the press release: "Schitbag" IS THE NEW STATUS PURSE Los Angeles, CA (May 12, 2010) — The Original Schitbag, launching now for the Fall season, moves the concept of a waist or hip purse into the 21st century with a unique, high-fashion design that enhances any outfit. For the first time, a hands-free, shoulder-free belt bag is sophisticated as well as practical, providing the sensuous elegance women have always wanted in a waist bag. Meticulously crafted in rich shades of velvety, optimum-quality suede, the Schitbag contours to the body and hides flaws with its sleek lines. My one, and only, question: Why, dear why, did they call it the SCHITBAG? Sure, fanny packs might be on the comeback, but did they really have to call this thing the Schitbag? I don’t care how it’s actually pronounced (assuming it’s skit-bag), it sounds like shitbag. And that, dear readers, is the worst marketing decision ever made. But I’ve still gotta ask: Would you wear one? |
Is Your Hair Thinning? Don’t Worry, You’re Not The Only One Posted: 14 May 2010 10:03 AM PDT
While female hair loss is easier to hide than male pattern baldness, it’s still a major problem, especially because most women know nothing about it. There are so many reasons why your hair may be thinning, and the good news is, there are ways to treat it other than gross follicle implants. Recently, I chatted with medical journalist Candace A. Hoffmann, who covered the topic in-depth in 2007’s Breaking the Silence on Women’s Hair Loss. She shed some light on the topic: Fashionista: What causes female hair to thin?
Is this a bigger issue for the current generation? (I’m 27, and it feels like so many of my friends suffer from this.) Is it a nutritional thing? Nutrition can play a part. If you’re not eating a well-balanced diet or are severely dieting or anorexic, it will affect your hair. However, if it is nutritional, it will be a temporary hair loss. Return to a well-balanced diet and hair should return in 4 – 6 months. Supplements must be used with caution and women must understand that vitamins in excess, even those purported to help grow hair, can be detrimental and have an adverse affect. In this day and age, people are rarely deficient in the hair loss vitamins folic acid and biotin. There would be other symptoms beyond hair loss. A B-vitamin rich supplement can help grow hair, but it might not make more hair. I advise using any supplement with caution and eating vitamin-rich foods instead. And ALWAYS tell your physician the vitamins, herbs, and medications (over the counter and prescription) you are using. |
Fashion News Roundup: A Double Dose of Marilyn Monroe & Imaginary Gwyneth Perfection Posted: 14 May 2010 08:57 AM PDT
Love It or Hate It: The debate over just how stylish Carey Mulligan is continues to rage. This look, however, is perfect, and she should probably stick to a wardrobe of Prada and Miu Miu, because she always looks great in it (even if, at times, it’s not quite event appropriate). {Style} It’s Dandy: We loved the Selby’s Louis Vuitton illustrations—but his profiles on fashionable men are even better. The New York edition’s first up with Ruben Toledo, André Balazs, Waris Ahluwalia and copious amounts of Louis Vuitton luggage. {Moment} Hero Worship: What would Gwyneth wear? Something perfect, always. {WhoWhatWear} Sneak Peek: Check out Meadham Kirchoff’s Topshop collection. It’s very lacy and we’ll reserve judgment until we see it in person. {VogueUK} SCAD Grads: The Savannah College of Art and Design is living streaming its graduate fashion show this Saturday, May 15 at 8pm EST. {SCAD} |
Tom Ford’s New Lipstick Might Actually Be Worth Its $45 Price Tag Posted: 14 May 2010 08:01 AM PDT
Lauren: As some of you may remember, I’ve been searching for the perfect red lipstick. I thought I’d found it in Nars’ Heat Wave (which is a great semi-matte orange red, but a little dry). That is, until last night, when I found about five red lipsticks–and a few other colors, too–that are more perfect than I could ever imagine. Tom Ford (with the help of his beauty backer Estée Lauder) has created a lipstick wardrobe–not that any of us every thought we needed a lipstick wardrobe. The twelve colors in his debut collection range from the starkest nude to the blackest berry. And they’re all beautiful. Most are matte, some have a bit of a sheen, but all work. I was, of course, drawn to the corals and reds and pinks, and today I’ve chosen to don Ginger Fawn, a soft coral. The craziest part? It’s so soft. The color is the matte I love, without the dry, cracking feeling other lipsticks create. At $45 a tube, I can’t say I’d be running out to buy the entire wardrobe, but I would invest in one or two pieces. Britt: I’ve always had trouble with lipstick because my lips are asymmetrical, so bright red looks silly, and they’re also very pink which means my natural color shows through anything pale. But I love a smoky-eyed, nude-lipped look and I’ve tried my fair share of options over the years–nothing’s worked. This morning, I put on Tom Ford’s Blush Nude and it was perfect. It had just enough pink in it to blend into my natural lip color, but it still looked nude, and it’s so soft it feels like chapstick. Would I spend $45 on lipstick? Never. But now that I have it I’ll wear it everyday. |
