Forget About the Royal Wedding For a Second. Blake Lively Is Now a Redhead!

Posted: 27 Apr 2011 06:00 AM PDT

Blake Lively debuted a new hair color at the Time 100 gala last night, totally forsaking her signature California girl honey blonde hue. She of the hair that the New York Times christened the new “Rachel.” To complete the Little Mermaid look, she wore a seafoam Zuhair Murad couture gown.

We smell a trend. Mandy Moore and Drew Barrymore just went ginger recently and of course Rihanna has been walking around with that flaming hair for months now. Who started it? We’re crediting Christina Hendricks.

Does Karl know she did it?

Edward Enninful Replaces Alex White as the Fashion and Style Director of W; White Rumored to Launch Her Own Magazine

Posted: 27 Apr 2011 05:31 AM PDT

Just yesterday we reported that W mainstay and styling legend Alex White had resigned from W, and early this morning, her replacement has been announced.

At around 1am EST Edward Enninful took to his brand new twitter account–it’s only two days old–to announce his new position at W magazine, “i have a new job as Fashion and Style Director for W Magazine. Thanks for all the kind words.” Enninful takes over this position from White, who held the position for the last 16 years. He got his start at i-D (he was fashion director there at 18) and for the past ten years has worked as freelance stylist for Italian and US Vogue (you might remember him from The September Issue).

We’re curious to now why White waited until now, months after W’s editorial change-up to leave, and for how long Enninful knew he had the job.

Rumor: Alex White Leaves W

Posted: 26 Apr 2011 02:48 PM PDT

We just got a tip from a very reliable source that W‘s revered fashion director Alex White resigned this afternoon. According to the source, White has left to focus on freelance projects.

If it’s true it’s shocking news, and a shame. White has been at W since 1994 and stuck around through all the recent changes at the high fashion glossy–namely the installment of Stefano Tonchi as EIC and she just launched the delightful blog Alex White Edits (though it hasn’t been updated since March 23).

We’ve reached out to W for confirmation and will update with any news. If you know anything write to us at tips@fashionista.com.

Crystal Renn Explains Why She Likes Modeling for Vogue Japan and Responds To the Haters Who Say She’s Gotten Too Thin

Posted: 26 Apr 2011 12:41 PM PDT

Stylist Lori Goldstein, photographer Nathaniel Goldberg, and Crystal Renn came together to work their magic for a stunning editorial in the June issue of Vogue Japan. They actually came together to produce “A Call for Camp” back in December of last year. I was lucky enough to have the chance to hang out at Pier 59 while the shoot happened, surrounded by McQueen and Marni and yards upon yards of Marimekko fabric that was twisted into tight turbans atop Renn’s head.

While Renn was being tugged and pinned into one such turban, I chatted with the rising supermodel about the plum gigs she keeps scoring, what she wants to do next (hint: it still involves cameras, only the moving kind), and how the constant media chattering about her shifting size makes her feel.

Beach Beauty: The Basics of the Bikini Line (Don’t Try a Brazilian at Home!)

Posted: 26 Apr 2011 11:54 AM PDT

It's almost beach season, which means if you've been neglecting your bikini line all winter it's time to get that thing in check. Timing is everything when it comes to bikini line maintenance, so we spoke to Cynthia Chua, the owner of Strip Ministry of Waxing, to get some guidance about when, where, and how to keep things nice and tidy.

How soon before hitting the beach or pool do you recommend waxing and why?
Do wax two to three days in advance, especially if you are new to waxing, as people with very sensitive skin might incur slight redness or blotchiness. It will calm down in a day or so. Waxing removes hair from the root, which keeps your skin hair-free for around 2-3 weeks.
 
How should you take care of the area after you get a wax?

Karl Lagerfeld on Cutting His Ponytail and Who Should Succeed Galliano at Dior

Posted: 26 Apr 2011 09:00 AM PDT

Do you ever think about cutting your hair?
No, because I'm afraid it won't grow again. And I'm not very gifted for hairdos. This is the quickest thing in the world. It takes less than five seconds.

Do you do it yourself?
No, I have someone who comes to the house and washes it, puts in the dry shampoo, and takes care if it because I have no time. I don't even have time to go to the dentist. I'm busy but in a pleasant way. I'm the one who wanted to do all of it, so I can't complain.

What are your thoughts on Dior? Who should take over?
Well I'm not a consultant there, but I think Riccardo Tisci would be good, and then Haider Ackermann at Givenchy—not because they are friends of mine, but because they are good.


–Highlights from W‘s amazing interview with the indefatigable Kaiser.

New Bill Proposes a Year of Jail Time For Buying a Counterfeit Bag

Posted: 26 Apr 2011 08:28 AM PDT

Shopping for fake Louis Vuittons or Chanel bags on Canal street in Chinatown has become a requisite tourist activity. Only now you could go to jail for it.

City councilwoman Margaret Chin, who represents the Chinatown district, is introducing a bill this Thursday that proposes harsh punishment for shoppers caught purchasing counterfeits, the New York Post is reporting. Under Chin’s bill, that fake LV could cost you $1,000 in fines (still not quite the cost of some of the real deals) or up to a year in prison.

Sound harsh? That’s the point.
