The 10 Biggest Stories in Fashion This Week
Break the Internet: On Tuesday, Kim Kardashian's butt-baring Paper Magazine cover photos were released, followed up with full-frontal nudes on Thursday. Naturally, we had to catch up with the makeup artist on set to find out what oil he used on that behind.
Do It Yourself: If you're looking to cut back on nail salon visits, Canadian vlogger CutePolish has a couple of tricks for painting with your non-dominant hand. Now your left and right hand can look professionally done.
50 Cent's 2 Cents: Rapper 50 Cent talks about writing music for a good cause, why Kanye West will have to work to be in the high-fashion world and what type of designer he wants to collaborate with next. Hint: he likes underdogs.
Cosmetic Case: We sat down with the experts at Rouge New York to find out what beauty products are a must for our makeup routine, and what products we should toss already.
A Second Coat: Kate Middleton, notorious for re-wearing clothes, sported two new coats last weekend -- as well as a growing baby bump.
One Direction: In other Kate Middleton fashion news, the Duchess wore a black lace Diane Von Furstenberg dress to the Royal Variety Performance, where she met One Direction.

Au Naturale: We switched to natural beauty products for three weeks to see if they worked just as well as our favorite sulfate/paraben/phthalate-packed products. Is beauty really pain?
Movin' On Down: Conde Nast has officially moved from 4 Times Square to 1 WTC. Of course, the Vogue offices found a way to pack up in style.
