The 10 Most Stylish Stars Under 20

Posted: 06 Dec 2010 02:35 PM PST

Fashionistas are getting younger and younger these days.

This past weekend, Sally Singer‘s T featured 13-year-old Chloë Grace Moretz, star of Kick-Ass and the forthcoming The Fields styled in a Wren tunic (Moretz wore it like a dress). She wore Chanel Resort to her last awards show. In Milan this past season Willow Smith made the rounds with mom Jada, sitting front row at Dolce & Gabbana, Ferragamo and Emporio Armani. And Emma Watson, a college sophomore, can do no wrong on the red carpet. Bloggers Tavi Gevinson and Jane Aldridge have proven that style doesn’t necessarily come with age or fame.

There are countless other stylish stars (movie and internet) who can’t legally drink but dress better than me. Here are our top 10 mini trendsetters.

Annoying Habits of Other PRs by @NoBtotheS

Posted: 06 Dec 2010 02:06 PM PST

Welcome back to @NoBtotheS's series on the suicide inducing habits of people in the fashion industry. (Editor's note: If you're not familiar with NoBtotheS, or No Bullshit, s/he is an anonymous fashion publicist working in New York City who's famed for a hilarious Twitter account.)

This post is dedicated to the PRs who I call my friends, in the most sincere way. We shop, eat, drink, laugh, cry, and bitch together. This is for you- you know EXACTLY what I’m talking about.

1. Nonsensical RSVPs: Why am I receiving emails from your coordinator, RSVPing on your behalf to my agency’s event? You aren’t friends with the designer (or ME for that matter) so don’t be surprised if you get an email back from MY assistant beginning with “Due to the high volume of RSVPs and limited space…”

2. “Celebrity” PRs: Not to be confused with PRs who represent A-listers. I’m talking about PRs who mistake THEMSELVES for bold names. No one cares about you (ever) and demanding press mentions from your directors is desperate and needy. It’s just not a good look.

Christy Turlington Burns, The Face of Avon’s New Fragrance, Is Not Fancy

Posted: 06 Dec 2010 01:42 PM PST

When I heard that I was going to interview Christy Turlington Burns, I immediately YouTubed George Michael's "Freedom 1990" video for inspiration, which is of course the quintessential supermodel-meets-pop culture study. But that was 20 years ago. She has done so much since then, and her resume reads like that of a modern-day renaissance woman: model, yoga guru, clothing designer, mother, philanthropist, writer, director.

Christy's newest venture is acting as the face and spokeswoman for Avon's new fragrance, Slip Into, which will be released in 2011. The name is meant to be evocative of the moment a woman slips on a pair of high heels, and the feeling of empowerment and sophistication that goes along with it (and presumably without the twisted ankles and calluses).

The fragrance is an oriental floral, with notes of violet, orchid, and ambers, among other things. The bottle is inspired by the curve of a woman's calf.

This afternoon, a small group of writers got to speak to her via phone, and we talked fragrance, beauty rituals, career, and philanthropy.

Posted: 06 Dec 2010 01:15 PM PST

Check out all the goodies Jason Cauchi of label Dallin Chase recommends to give this holiday season.

Jason’s five favorite gifts to give are:

1. “Going over to a friends place for the holidays? Skip the wine and bring Tito’s Vodka. Wrap it and give it already chilled. It’s like including batteries, who wouldn’t love that.”

2. “Gift certificate – yup a gift certificate to a restaurant. Choose a restaurant you have talked about or suggested or one that you think will be enjoyed and is a spot that may be a new experience for your friend or family. Try The Plaza Food Hall it is in the heart of new york city and offers a mix of great food that will surely offer a great experience.”

3. “Something sweet – macaroons are colorful and unexpected or go for something rich and luxurious Teuscher’s Champagne Truffles.”

4. “The gift of giving! know a friends favorite cause? Contribute in their name to the charity or choose a charity that is meaningful to them.”

5. “Jewelry – Be it a one of kind Mary Kate Steinmiller bracelet or something classic and shiny from Tiffany’s, jewelry is always at the top of the list for most girls, mine included.”?

Ask Chris Benz: Color Me Beautiful, Please?

Posted: 06 Dec 2010 12:00 PM PST

Chris,
I’m new to the fashion world as a fashion photographer and I’m working at a high fashion retailer, and I wanted to know how to match colors with people skin tones. What colors go well with light medium and dark skin tones?
FilmsterBen

Dear Filmster Ben -

We joke about it all the time at the studio, but if you want to invest in some home-grown 1980's fashion knowledge, get yourself a copy of Color Me Beautiful immediately! I remember reading this as a kid to great discovery that I was an "Autumn." Also makes for hilarious dinner conversation.

LONDON–Now 18 years old, Miu MiuPrada‘s jaunty little sister–has just moved into her new address on London’s New Bond St. alongside YSL and McQueen.

The space’s new look takes its cues from the Mayfair neighborhood’s original tenants of art and antiques dealers, completing the grown up glamor with pink flamingos and dirty martinis by Peter Dorelli of the Savoy, the UK’s oldest luxury hotel, which itself recently underwent a £220 million restoration.
Catwalk looks occupied the second floor with Miu Miu‘s covetable bags and accessories on the ground floor replete with a limited edition six-piece range of satchels in everything from faux fur and snakeskin to leather and studs.

Caption This: ADR Gets in the Holiday Spirit

Posted: 06 Dec 2010 08:30 AM PST


Leave it to Anna Dello Russo to take nail art to the next level. To celebrate the holiday season, the one and only ADR got Santa, Rudolph (his red nose is a gem, natch), an elf, a Christmas tree and other assorted holiday imagery painted onto her nails. Basically an advent calendar exploded onto her nails. (Hopefully this doesn’t mean she’s over HEAD-PIECES.)

If you’re interested in decking your nails in a similar fashion, ADR points you toward a strange Russian site called nogtiki.com which seems to have something to do with nails, but also features a girl in a Santa hat and a bra, smiling while brandishing a dildo. Of course it does.
