Here’s the thing about most fashion magazine websites: They suck. Yet we appreciate Elle‘s online presence. Mostly because the team puts a concerted effort into producing original content that is as compelling as what’s in the magazine. Also because it’s not simply a wasteland for PR favors. And finally, because Britt runs the blog. (It’s good. If you’re not reading it daily, you should be.) Why is this glossy different from the rest? Elle gets that most mag-connected sites are jumbled messes that aren’t particularly easy to navigate or fun to read. But despite Elle.com being better than the rest, editorial director Keith Pollock and co. still weren’t satisfied with what they had to offer their readers. So they’ve gotten a face lift.

| The Outnet’s Marni Sale Video Features Alexa Chung Wearing Proenza Schouler… Huh? Posted: 31 Jan 2011 03:30 PM PST
Let’s be real. There are few things us “full time Marni freaks” here at Fashionista are more excited about than the Outnet’s upcoming Marni sale. With prices up to 65% off, it will be a wonder if my bank account survives. But like any good shopper, I had to check out the preview to see what kind of Marni goods were going to be offered. Camel skirts, check. Solid dresses in a “painterly palette,” check. That green, printed Proenza Schouler dress I’ve been lusting for since September, check…. Huh? Somehow the video editor skipped a crucial step in their research and thought Alexa Chung’s darling AW10 Proenza minidress was made by Marni. A blatant error since the pattern and cut are so distinguishably Proenza. (The good news: she is sporting a Marni handbag.) Follow Fashionista on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.

| Grading the Spring Ads, Part 2 Posted: 31 Jan 2011 03:00 PM PST
Since our last recap of the spring ads, tons of new images have been released, including Miu Miu‘s full campaign starring none other than Querelle Jansen! For fashion nerds like myself, Querelle’s image brought back memories of Marc Jacobs’ fall ’05 collection inspired by Violet from the Incredibles and his spring ’05 collection for Vuitton that he said she inspired with her street style. Call me nostalgic, but I hope Querelle makes a major comeback in the 2010s. But enough reminiscing. In this recap of the ads we’ve got Prada, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Céline, Rag & Bone, Jil Sander and so much more. So get clicking! Follow Fashionista on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.

| Considering A Tattoo? They’re Not As Easy To Remove As You Think Posted: 31 Jan 2011 02:30 PM PST
While tattoos have historically had a place in rebellion, lately they've become fashionable for everyone from celebs to models to brides. From Thierry Mugler's recent menswear show to Gisele's famous star to Rihanna's ever-growing collection of ink to Eva Longoria's wedding tattoo (oops) it seems like everyone's getting inked with abandon. And it's a lot more socially acceptable, despite what you may think about the aesthetics. But what happens when you decide that a) "it's tacky" or b) "I hate that bastard" and want to get rid of it? Well, you're in for some pain, a time commitment, a financial commitment, and absolutely no guarantee that it will be gone. I spoke to Dr. Heidi Waldorf, the Director of Laser and Cosmetic Dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in NYC, about the process of tattoo removal. You often hear people say flippantly, “Well, I can always get it removed.” How feasible is it—really? "There is no magical eraser for tattooing," she told me. Her take-away points?

| Vera Wang Adds Diamond Rings to Her Bridal Empire Posted: 31 Jan 2011 02:00 PM PST
While many designers have had major success with discount retailers like Target and H&M, Vera Wang might be the most multi-faceted when it comes to affordable collaborations. Wang released a mattress collection with Serta in 2006, she sells Simply Vera, an affordable collection (which reportedly remained profitable even during the recession), at Kohl’s, and she’s about to release her first David’s Bridal collection, which includes wedding dresses under $1,500. Oh, and she designs floral arrangements for FTD. But she isn’t stopping there. After dresses and flowers and mattresses, what could be next? The future is looking sparkly.

| Just an FYI: Tom Ford Has Nothing To Do With Mr. Porter Posted: 31 Jan 2011 12:55 PM PST
If you got an email from Tom Ford this morning regarding the launch of Mr. Porter, Net-a-Porter’s hotly anticipated men’s shopping site, don’t get too excited. Apparently, someone has been sending emails out regarding Mr. Porter under the moniker Tom Ford. And the Mr. Ford is not pleased.

Gemma Ward Says She’ll Head Back to the Catwalk Someday: The crux of this story is the former It-model’s relationship with Heath Ledger, but we’re more interested in her possible return to the runway. {HuffPo} Note to Self: Don’t Knock Off the Birkin: Contemporary label Thursday Friday is in deep water after releasing a tote bag which featured a photo of the Hérmes Birkin bag. Thursday Friday screen-printed the image of the red iconic bag onto their eco-friendly tote bags, and while the bag certainly isn’t a knock-off, per se, Hermés seems to think the label is “confusing” and “misleading” its buyers. The amount for which Thursday Friday is being sued has not been disclosed, but we’re guessing the major luxury label isn’t asking for petty change. {She Finds} The Outnet’s Marni Sale: Net-a-Porter’s discount site does it again with a massive Marni sale, launching tomorrow morning. They’re offering up some of the label’s finest shoes, statement jewelry, and fabulous printed pieces–all marked down by up to 65%. We’ve already got our eye on that camel skirt. {Refinery 29} Follow Fashionista on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.

| Soap, The Most Underappreciated Beauty Product, Gets Its Own Institute Posted: 31 Jan 2011 10:00 AM PST
You probably use soap. Or at least I'll wager you HAVE used soap at some point in your life. It's not one of those sexy products that people like to analyze and gush over, unlike mascara or nail polish. You probably take it for granted. Well, shame on you. Soap now has its own institute, called–appropriately enough–the "Institute of Soap." Frenchman and soap production specialist Laurent Bousquet started the organization to address the environmental and economic concerns associated with soap production. There will also be a research component to look at biodegradability, to promote it as a sustainable product, and to encourage innovation. Follow Fashionista on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.
