A Cut Above

You know when you get a new haircut like Posh did recently (which for the record we like very much) and you have to figure out a whole new styling system. Unless of course you are Mrs. Beckham in which case you can just get it professionally styled whenever you please. But for the rest Read more →

Beauty WTF Moment

With New Moon imminently on the rise, our friends at StyleList conducted survey of cold ones inspired beauty. The results? Nearly 10% of respondents caved to the idea of having or investigating fang implants. Um, what? Even 1% would seem really high.

We’re So Vain

We probably think this post is about us…and in a lot of ways it is. According to a report compiled by TotalBeauty.com, New York is the vainest city in the US.

Purple Passion

Dear Rihanna, Hi, it’s us checking in again. Today’s topic: your lips. Because we’re in the market for something new to try and frankly your sartorial choices of late aren’t really office-appropriate, you know with the transparent tops and all.

Beauty and the Divas

SNL’s Deep House Dish may have been creating a mock rivalry between ultimate icon Madonna and current talk-of-every-town GaGa, but the sketch did illustrate that there are a few requirements to being a dominating diva.
