Jump On It
There’s really an all-in-one thing going on in fashion right now. First, we wanted rompers; then it was overalls. Now, we’re fiending for a good, full-legged jumpsuit.

What Not to Wear After a Breakup
I’ve made a lot of mistakes in the name of love. At the top of that list are the sartorial slip-ups I have made when love has gone awry.
When a girl gets dumped her wardrobe isn’t always a priority. It should be. Looking back over the five most devastating breakups of my life, I wish that someone would have told me the many things I would regret. I wish 30-year-old me had told 20-year-old me a few fashion rules that would have helped me both heal and avoid the veiled laughter of my friends and frenemies.
Whitney Pozgay on Her Adorable New Anthropologie Collection for Small People
While the fashion industry tends to favor the tall (‘Dwarf’ Cara Delevingne knows this all too well), the Fashionista team probably has a median height of 5’3.” Karlie Kloss’s denim line is of no interest to us shorties.

Aboard the Freedom for Opening Ceremony Resort
Last week, the fashion set made its way to Chelsea Piers to board the Freedom yacht for Opening Ceremony‘s resort preview–but not before taking off their shoes. It’s a testament to designers Humberto Leon’s and Carol Lim’s enduring cool factor, that nary a complaint was heard as editors and It girls alike parted way with their precious footwear.
But if the setting was steeped in American history (the Freedom is also sister to former presidential yacht, the U.S.S. Sequoia), the collection took its inspiration from an entirely different time and place. Leon and Lim explained they had modern-day Korea on the brain when designing the collection.

Together with her daughter, Lulu, we spruced up a sangria recipe that was filled with an overwhelming amount of various liquors. The two Johnsons now star in the hit Style Network series XOX Betsey Johnson, and were hardly shy when it came to slurping up the bubbly.

Marc Jacobs Once Cut Cara Delevingne From His Show, Called Her a ‘Dwarf’
Cara Delevingne is one of the most in-demand models around right now–for everything from runway shows to ad campaigns to editorials. She’s won over the entire industry with her impressive eyebrows and goofy faces–but apparently there was a time when those qualities weren’t enough to compensate for her “dwarf”-like stature.
