by

Count Vogue Japan as another fan of Hedi Slimane for Saint Laurent. The glossy styled Karlie Kloss in a bohemian glam look from the designer’s spring collection for its June 2013 cover. {Fashion Gone Rogue}

Lauren Hutton is apparently writing a book full of “juicy anecdotes” like the time she met Bill Clinton or traveled through Africa. If it’s anything like her recent The Edit interview, we obviously can’t wait. Especially for all the curse words. {Page Six}

Kering has expansion on the brain. The luxury conglomerate has acquired jewelry company Pomellato, just a few months after taking a majority stake in Christopher Kane. {WWD}

Fashion News Roundup: Paris Hilton Covers Vanity Fair Spain, Karlie Kloss is Clothed in Vogue Japan, and Menswear Writers Mock Personal Style Bloggers

by

Why is Paris Hilton on the Cover of January’s Vanity Fair Spain?: No, really, why? The socialite is decked out in all gold everything, clutching a Pomeranian who is hanging his adorable head in shame. {Racked}

Lucky.com Gets Menswear Writers to Mock Lady Style Bloggers Poses: In an homage to the female fashion bloggers out there, Lucky.com got menswear editors to compete in a pose-off, mimicking the standard posing fare of big name bloggers.
