Chloe Sevigny won't leave us alone. Oh, it's not her fault, of course, but between her star-turn on Big Love (the show is currently in the middle of season four), spring's braid trend (which never fails to remind us of her BL character, Nicolette Grant),...

Like Punxsutawney Phil with the weather, many people look to the "hemline theory" as an indicator of economic times. For those of you who aren't familiar with this old adage, the theorem posits that you can use skirt-lengths to predict whether the markets...

Much like the Upper East Side's fashion frontrunner—the one and only Blair Waldorf—we adore supersized day bags for toting our copious wares, but when it comes to party purses, we prefer to opt for more petite styles. This is especially true during the...

Most people have some sort of shorthand for those times when they suddenly realize a clear and simple truth. Oprah refers to these awakenings as Aha! Moments, Homer Simpson would probably call them D'oh! Situations (if he were forced to name such things),...

Sometimes it's a splashy performance that draws us to certain actresses, while other times, control and restraint makes the most indelible impacts. (Consider Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada versus Adaptation: two diametrically opposed but equally...

As rule-breaking, ridiculously temperamental, totally manipulative teenagers, we had the tendency to say whatever was necessary to achieve our desired results. Would we make curfew? Absolutely. Drive with the music turned to non-earsplitting levels? Definitely....

Whenever the temperature drops, we start to look at grooming the way cats view the bath: totally uninterested. But as we sit down for yet another typical mani/pedi (“I’ll have the boring red please!”) or find ourselves working the same party hairstyle...

We are always receptive to any and all types of glistening objects, but we tend to pay extra attention to them towards the end of the year. What with shiny wrapping paper, twinkling holiday lights, and fresh coats of shimmering snow (for some) on the...

We’re not shy about our love for Charlize Theron. We’re fanatical about her style choices—even the risky ones, because she never looks boring—and, to point out the obvious, her beauty is astonishing. We recently flipped over the makeup she wore to attend...
