Dear Daria: Your February French Vogue cover is spectacular (thanks Inez & Vinoodh). Won’t you please come out of runway retirement and walk next month? {FashionGoneRogue}

Don’t Mess With Chanel: Nylon spotted a kid with hot pink spray paint terrorizing Soho. It looks like he was trying to replicate the Chanel logo on their Spring street windows, but he was tackled by the police before finishing his masterpiece. {Nylon}

Nostalgia: Remember when Anna scolds Elissa Santisi for her sleek, repetitive and rather boring editorials in The September Issue? In case you don’t, or didn’t know what she was talking about, here you go. {Models}

Sneak Peek: A few sketches and images of Kate Moss’ bags for Longchamp have surfaced. You know she can do no wrong in our eyes, but these are boring. {Fashionologie}

Wish We Were There: Tommy Ton’s shooting men’s Fashion Week for GQ.com, and as if the pictures Garance posted yesterday weren’t enough to make you want to hop on a plane to Italy, check out the Moncler show. {Jak&Jil}

Fresh Faced: Jessica Biel’s on the cover of Vogue’s February issue (for Valentine’s Day? Really?). We can’t wait to read “The Tale of an Almost Adultress.” Sounds almost interesting…{BryanBoy}

Ford’s Crush: A Single Man star Nicholas Hoult’s in Tom Ford’s spring 2010 eyewear campaign with a very naked Carolyn Murphy. {Fashionologie}

Talk of the Town: Jean-Paul Gaultier’s Target lookbook leaked today. It looked better in yesterday’s blurry Elle editorial. {Refinery29}

Diet Talk: Speaking of hot male fashion designers, Yigal Azrouël kept a journal of his eating habits for New York Magazine’s food blog. He cooks Moroccan food for six, makes omelets and English muffins in the morning, and whips up papaya smoothies on demand. {Vulture}

Loved: Giles presented his pre-fall collection in Florence yesterday underneath paper clip hats and above crunched plates. We’re thrilled colored hair isn’t going anywhere. {LOVE}

And So It Goes: Pitti Uomo’s kicked off in Florence and no one shoots Italian men like Scott Schuman, at least off the street. {Sartorialist}

Down the Rabbit Hole: The first look at Stella’s Alice in Wonderland baubles. They manage to be both totally Alice and totally Stella at the same time. {Style}

Bananas: Rachel Zoe champions Eddie Borgo on today’s Zoe Report. She favors the rose gold Egyptian-like collar. We don’t favor the parallel universe selection. {ZoeReport}

Are Runways the New Rock Concerts? Belgian designer Dirk Bikkembergs is shilling tickets for his menswear show in Milan for $16 a pop. {WWD}

Stars & Stripes: Images of Jean-Paul Gaultier’s Target collection have leaked via an editorial. Gaultier’s surrounded by models in striped tees, khaki trenches and a few girly skirts. The collection, though blurry, looks fantastic. {Fashin via Refinery29}

Bow to the Plaid: Terry Richardson’s started a Tumblr and today he’s shooting Doutzen for Vogue Russia. God we miss Daria. {TerrysDiary}

Catch Up: In case the holidays wiped out your fashion memory, here’s a reminder of what you need to know about Spring to keep up with Autumn. {Style}

Sailor Moon: Would it be so wrong to wear this Spring sweater dress every day of freezing cold Fashion Week? We’d stuff our closet full of Markus Lupfer if we could. {Net-a-Porter}

Better Than Ken & Barbie: Du Juan and Philip Huang make a perfect pair in the new Vogue China. Apparently, matching denim is now acceptable. {DailyFeed}

It’s Easy Wearing Green: Have you checked out Gap’s new Utility Collection? The anorak pictured on NYMag is perfect. {TheCut}

A Model Engagement: MTV VJ Ruby Rose announced her engagement to Catherine McNeil on Facebook this weekend. But who, we wonder, gets to make the dress. And when will we get Cat back on the runways? {SydneyHerald}

Rodarte Talk: Amanda Fortini profiles Kate and Laura Mulleavy in this week’s New Yorker. She writes nothing new about the Rodarte designers, but does pit Anna Wintour’s support against Cathy Horyn’s criticism throughout the seven page story (and keeps Tavi talk to a minimum). {TheNewYorker}

The Other Jablonski: Jacquelyn Jablonski’s one of T’s Nifty Fifty; Laird Borrelli-Persson clears up Jersey Shore myths about the model, ensures Jacquelyn’s not related to Constance, and gets her to spill her favorite Springsteen song, “Rosalita”. {TheMoment}

Three’s a Charm: Dree Hemingway has just landed her third campaign of the season — this one’s for Gianfranco Ferre. {Refinery29}

Welcome, Henry: We love his Tweets. We love his tights. We all around just love him. Now Henry Holland’s blogging for Vogue UK. Feel free to over-share away. And we’re ever so curious about this “secret” meeting in Austria! {Vogue UK}

He’s Back!: Jeremy Scott is making a return stateside. He will be showing this season at Mac at Milk. We can’t wait! {Fashionologie via Twitter}

Wigging Out: Designer Charlie Le Mindu answers some questions about his outrageous wigs and what it’s like to dress Lady Gaga. {The Moment}

St. John’s Siren: Karen Elson’s the new face of St. John. Greg Kadel photographed the campaign (the first since Angelina Jolie’s). Karen gets better and better. Looking at this picture makes me want to buy St. John, (and I don’t think their target customer is twenty-five years old). {FashionGoneRogue}

A Fast Fashion Fortune British design student Hannah Cooper’s parents won the lottery. So she naturally decided to make a dress from fabric printed with a million pounds worth of twenty pound notes. She loves it because, “the dress really does look expensive.” {BBC}

Lucky Ducks: All of the women nominated for Best Supporting and Best Actress at this year’s Golden Globes will go home with a gold, citrine, and diamond compact from L’Oreal. It looks like it belongs in a safe instead of a purse. {BeautyCounter}

Milking It: This week people keep putting the Obamas in ads they obviously didn’t approve. First PETA and Michelle and now a company called Weatherproof put up a huge Times Square billboard of the President at the Great Wall, apparently in one of their jackets. We love that the company claims, “We’re not saying President Obama endorses Weatherproof apparel.” Really, you’re not? I guess that’s why so many publications refused to run the ad. {NY Times}

Model Life: Lindsay Ellingson walked runways from Chanel to Gucci last season, ended the year on Victoria’s Secret runway and now, she’s landed on the cover of their Summer 2010 catalog. {VS}

Tinselgate: Simon Doonan pens a quick piece about his experience — before, during and after — decorating the White House. We don’t really care what conservative government big-wigs thought. We loved the holiday decor! {NYO}

Revival, Revival: The oldies (but goodies) are back with a vengeance. Jenny Shimizu has signed with Women Model Management. {Style.com via Hint}

Good Romance: We love Polaroids. We love Gaga. We’re not sure exactly what this collaboration will bring, but we’ll probably love it too. {Boston Herald}

Color Us Happy: The first look at Balenciaga’s Jennifer Connelly-less SS10 campaign. We vote yes. You? {Women}

An Original Muse: Ines de la Fressange granted an interview to a British paper last week and took the opportunity to set the record straight regarding just how many hours she spends in front of her closet. Also this, “French women have a kind of arrogance. It’s: ‘I ignore fashion, I do my own thing.’” {Independent}

Meet the Maker: Nicola Formichetti talks fashion, celebrity, Dazed and Gaga. He says, “I like that it feels more like a hobby than a job,” and as for his own style, “I tend to get all my basics from Uniqlo, and I mix vintage clothing with a bit of Margiela.” {TheMoment}

Pepe-d: Alexa Chung’s the new face of Pepe jeans. We always imagine her taking a more Burberry-like route, but she did land a Burberry co-star, Tom Guinness, and manages to look plenty Alexa-ish in rumpled shorts and a leather jacket. {Grazia}

Bien Sur: French Vogue names their Forty Women of the Decade. Marion Cotillard, Garance Dore, Lindsay Lohan, Kate Moss, Blake Lively, Agyness and their own Carine Roitfeld are included in the eclectic group. {Vogue.Fr}

LSD in a LSD: According to Hadley Freeman, LSD was the topic of discussion in the UK over the holidays. Not our Phi-loving Vogue-ette, but “Little Sequined Dress.” Apparently fashion’s getting more and more teenage-like with a host of acronyms. {Guardian}

One More List: Our last end of the year mention, Hilary and Katharine’s 2009 Style Awards honor Rachel Bilson, Vanessa Traina, Alexa Chung, Leighton Meester and more in categories like Best Import and Most Stylist Social. We second with each and every pick. {WWW}

Cover Me: It’s pretty hard to remember every single gorgeous cover we’ve seen this year, let alone pick just one favorite. I pretty much change my mind every time I blink. Here’s just a few to get you started. {Models}

More Lohan Than We Can Take: Yesterday it was a Twitter announcement. Today brings the sketches. We’ll let them speak for themselves. {The Cut}

Film Forum: Never in a million years would I have thought Gleaming the Cube would end up on a list of fashion trendsetting films. It is, however, on my top 5 Christian Slater vehicles list. {LA Times}

Trend-free Zone: “Designers are chucking any old thing in the pot these days in an attempt to appeal to the few potential customers out there who might be persuaded to buy.” You gotta love that Hadley Freeman, even if you don’t agree with her. {Guardian UK}

Manifest Destiny: The Tom Ford press tour goes on. He’s pretty sure he was destined to be famous, rich and lead a fabulous life. We wish we were too. {Independent UK}

Oh, Happy Day: Joan Rivers is coming back to the red carpet for E! She may be campy and a little grating, but sweet lord anything is better than Giuliana Rancic and Jay Manuel. {Hollywood Reporter}

Barbie Girl: I’m here in my hometown of Indianapolis for Christmas and just discovered there’s a new Barbie fashion exhibit downtown at the fun Children’s Museum. Any Hoosiers out there check it out yet? {LiveAuctioneers}

Year in the Life: If you weren’t already a little jealous of how Derek Blasberg spends his time, you probably will be after you see this slideshow of his personal pics from 2009. Yeah, that Lily D’s birthday party. {V}

Brush Off: So now we know Demi’s Bazaar cover is for April and that she’s never been to Russia. Also, when it comes to mascara RZ tells us, “It’s all about the brush.” Which is kinda true. {YouTube}

The Wall: I haven’t really done the wallpaper thing since we tore down the 70s style stuff at my childhood home. But these Vivienne Westwood creations have me reconsidering the option. {Vogue UK}

Photo Courtesy of Jak&JilSanta, Baby: Anyway this little Dries number could find its way under our Fashionista tree? Because it’s just about perfect. Color us jealous. {Jak&Jil}

Just Like Us: I was insanely, supremely stuck trying to get home to my family this weekend. I’m sure many of you were too. (Sidebar: Delta, we’re so over, we need a new word for over.) Not that we’d wish it on anyone, but sometimes it’s nice to know it happens to supermodels too. Sorry, Claudia Schiffer. {Vogue UK}

The Insider: GG’s Eric Daman let the Post of all people inside the show’s fashion closet. We spotted at least one potentially slutty Serena dress and a printed Erdem top that might be perfect for downtown Blair. {NY Post}

Abbey Road: We were already obsessed with this Greg Kadel shoot from the behind-the-scenes video. The pictures are even better than we imagined. Most of them are topless, just so you know. {Fashion Gone Rogue.}

Ad it Up: Jenny Humphrey might have just landed herself a major campaign. It’s no Eleanor Waldorf, but we’re sure it made her IMG agents very happy this holiday season. No word yet on whether ripped tights are involved in the styling. {Nylon}

This and That: As if you needed a reminder, but Rodarte for Target launches on the 20th. VF paired up some collection Rodarte against the lookbook so that people can understand what’s going on, kind of. {Vanity Fair}

In Stam’s Stam: Seeing as models get access to just about every product on the planet, we really never tire of seeing what they actually choose to carry around The girl’s got a very nice little mix going on, we’d recommend paying attention to her picks. {Style}

Olsen Fever: Style.com asks the scary question, “What would this decade have been like without the Olsens?” Style wise, awful. From Mary-Kate’s Valli moment to Ashley’s Alaia, they’re the fashion icons. {Style}

Cuff Love: If you haven’t already fallen in love with Eddie Borgo’s jewelry, check out his Spring Summer collection. He’s worked stones into his signature cones and added pyramid shapes in stunning reds and blues. The chain mail bracelets and collars are incredible. {EddieBorgo}

VideoFun: Hearty gave Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine a camera and asked her to chronicle her time in France. Why are blurry pictures so pretty? {Hearty}

New Faces: Daisy Lowe and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld are the new faces of Esprit’s all-American re-launch. Can you count how many things are wrong with that sentence? If not, the first campaign images will suffice. {Refinery29}

Purple Ruffle: Dree Hemingway’s SS10 Valentino campaign broke yesterday. We want pink hair. {FashionGoneRogue}

Triple Crown: Tom Ford’s A Single Man scored three Golden Globe nominations: Colin Firth, Julianne Moore and Best Score. Come Oscar time, Arianne Phillips deserves one, too. {Variety}

The Carrie Effect: We’re pretty anti-logo, but something about the way Carrie Bradshaw rocked Fendi’s double ‘F’ always makes us look longingly at the ‘Fendi’ stamped clutches in their 5th Avenue window. If that doesn’t sound totally crazy to you, check out their new online pop-up. {theCorner}

Never Have I Ever: These Givenchy shoes popped up this morning and I, Britt, am in love. They might be the best shoe I’ve seen all year. Maybe. Probably. {Net-a-Porter}

Braided Bliss: Kasia Struss’s first Vogue editorial (American, that is) lands in the Rachel McAdams covered January issue. She jumps, of course, and Tonne Goodman’s styling includes the Alex Wang braid we expect to see much, much more of. {Models}

Best Of: The only thing we like better than models on runways are models in their own clothes. Their knack for mixing designer payment and vintage combined with their hanger-like bodies provides endless inspiration. {WhoWhatWear}

Color Me Mine: If you’ve always wanted to design your own dress, but can’t sketch to save your life, can you handle coloring inside the lines? A Brit’s designed a £250 black and white shift that comes with markers, so you can match it to your bag, or your shoes, or whatever else you like. {DailyMail}

Twinsies: How quickly the Olsen’s went from Wal-Mart to The Row and back down to J.C. Penney. Here’s a peek at their newest line, Olsenboye, which features bows, suspenders and a shirt that really should say, “We copied Stephen Sprouse for Louis Vuitton.” {Nylon}

Horse Meat:Remember all those times Karl Lagerfeld said he hated fat people and that no one should have to look at fat people and that he lost all that weight eating horse meat and diet coke so he wouldn’t be fat anymore and that he thought Heidi Klum was heavy? Well Stephen Gan must be the most charming man in fashion because he got Mr. Lagerfeld to photograph a handful of plus size models for the new issue of V. {Jezebel}

Twilight Sophisticate: If you can tell who this is, you’re more of a Twi-hard then we’ll ever be. {VanityFair}

Unwerthed: Ellen von Unwerth’s new book, Fräulein, might cost $700, but if you’re in New York pre-January 30th, you can catch a retrospective of much of the same work at the Staley-Wise gallery at 560 Broadway for free. {Moment}

Bill’s Boys: This week’s On the Street is for the boys. Bill Cunningham’s shot his favorite men’s looks before the winter sets in and everyone just wears coats. Rachel Zoe’s Brad pops up, naturally. {NYTimes}

Wish Upon a Shoe: If you still don’t know what to ask for for the holidays, which we doubt, maybe these guys can help you out. Wish lists from the Rag & Bone boys, Erin Wasson, Jenni Kayne, Jessie Randall and more. {Shopbop}

Oh So Pretty: There’s really nothing new here re: Jason Wu, but I just really love the picture. So, happy Friday. {TheMoment}

Virtual Reality: Ralph Lauren’s staging a runway show for Rugby, online today, that he calls a cross between “Harry Potter and Rock Band.” The models are walking on a treadmill in front of a green screen and this article wonders if now everyone will go virtual, but really, it’s Rugby, not like they downgraded from an actual runway. {Time}

Better & Better: As if Soho’s upcoming Isabel Marant store wasn’t enough to make her stateside fans jump for joy, the French designer’s finally giving into the internet - Net-a-Porter will stock her spring collection. {Fashionologie}

Hot Stuff: Along with that British Vogue cover, Rachel Weisz just landed on GQ.com wearing slightly less clothing and looking equally gorgeous. It’s not in the magazine, so check in now. {GQ}
