Obama supports your right to wear saggy pants - Regime change

Filed under: Style in the News

This year, we've run across multiple stories about men getting ticketed -- or in some cases, arrested -- for wearing saggy pants under Florida's saggy pants ordinances. Needless to say, we stand opposed to any attempts to legislate fashion, no matter how stupid or ugly it looks. So, it's nice to find out that President-elect Obama shares our views and doesn't plan to create a 'Department of Homeland Fashion Police' or anything like that. Phew.

Vanessa Hudgens in Calvin Klein - I want that!

Filed under: Get the Look



On the circuit to promote High School Musical 3: Senior Year, Vanessa Hudgens has been girly with an edge to Ashley Tisdale's youthful yet lady-like fashion. The LA premiere was no exception. Vanessa looked exceptional in a white Calvin Klein Collection bohemian-esque frock that she punked up a little bit with black nails, big black cocktail ring, long cross necklace and animal print Choo's. Definitely an amazing sense of style and one to watch.

Many of us based our high school style on an icon from our favorite films, and while your favorite films from high school might depend largely on your age, that doesn't mean you can't find inspiration elsewhere.

Vanessa Hudgens in Jay Godfrey - I want that!

Filed under: Celebrities with Style, Get the Look

We are all over this Jay Godfrey dress. Maxis are key because they work for everyone and we have been totally into them for, what, some three years now. We're glad to see Vanessa is keeping this trend alive so we can unpack our favorites next summer too.

Back to school: Keep those gadgets stylish and safe

Filed under: Handbags, Accessories


InCaseThere are few things sadder than a scratched up tech toy. Students of today often have to tote around more than just a couple of books and a Jansport, and it's important to keep those extra goodies protected from the bumps and scratches of hectic school life. Just a wee bit of prevention can go a long way. Really, once you get that hardcore scar across the front of your super-shiny Macbook after accidentally skimming it with your bracelet-decorated wrist, you'll be sorry you didn't read this!

I want that! Ports 1961 Drapefront Dress

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Celebrities with Style, Get the Look


We are totally obsessed with this little plaid number Vanessa Hudgens wore on her TRL Appearance in MTV's Times Square Studios on July 1, 2008. The man-ish print and colors contrasting with the feminine bow and sweetheart neckline is pure perfection . Apparently everyone else loves it too because it is completely sold out on Saks.com.

Though you can tell this girl gathers inspiration from style icons like Kate Moss, she puts her own spin on everything she wears and is definitely one to watch. This dress is just proof in the pudding.

How skimpy is too skimpy for a prom dress?

Filed under: Events: On the Scene, Clothing


It's prom season once again, and, chances are, you've noticed local high school students pulling out all the stops for the "best night of their lives." Those of you who went to prom can attest to how completely disappointing this high-dollar celebration usually turns out to be -- however, this doesn't stop teenagers from trying to desperately out-do one another year after year.

Flashback: Not pink eye, pink eyeshadow

Filed under: Cosmetics


Stylelist has a how to guide for wearing colored eyeliner, which is totally fun, and balances really well with all the brights we're seeing for clothes this season.

Clicking through the looks gave us sweet 80s nostalgia. Purple eyeliner! Sparkly green! Ah, ninth grade! Then we came across a pictures of lip liner and vivid pink blush and had to laugh.

Your high school prom dress is back in fashion

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses

Hey! It's your prom dressUntil about 30 seconds ago, I would have sworn up and down that the 80s revival was finally over having been replaced by the dark, layered, depressive tones of Cobain-inspired grunge chic (a la 1993). But that was before I bumped into this post, which highlights some of the 80s "party dresses" that have started showing up at Topshop, Miss Selfridge, and other UK clothing shops.

Is it just me, or do these shockingly similar to the dresses Molly Ringwald and company wore to every school dance back in Sixteen Candles and Pretty in Pink?

These dresses would have been incredibly cool a couple years ago, but now the 80s obsession seems uninspired. I'm ready to start stealing from a different decade.
