Check back all day for reviews of the shows at New York Fashion Week, hot off the press.

From us to you, the coolest hair and makeup trends we saw at the shows -- all of which merit a DIY.

We pick out the best pieces for the First Lady (and Reese fan) because... like she has the time.

Kerry Washington hosted Saturday Night Live this weekend, bringing the show its highest ratings this season, and naturally the budding style star looked amazing while she did it. (She also fueled -- but didn't comment on -- those pregnancy rumors.) Her first sketch had her appear as First Lady Michelle Obama, and the costume department certainly paid attention to detail.

Ten bucks that Jean Paul Gaultier has  Dancing With the Stars on his DVR must-list.

It was everywhere during NYFW.

With the '90s being the decade of inspiration du jour for designers in spring 2014, one comes to expect some typical '90s staples. Case in point, Birkenstocks, overalls, and the slip dress, but what would the '90s be without florals and plaid? Paired together, they are showing up on the runways and thankfully not always in the typical grungy fashion.

I'm tired of elaborate nail art. It just looks wrong and overwrought to me now. Well, manicurists seemed to agree, because while there's been quite a bit of nail art backstage at the spring shows, it's mostly been really simple, graphic, and minimalist.

New show reviews and galleries are in! Check out Tracy Reese, Jonathan Simkhai, and Giulietta.

Fresh off of Michelle Obama wearing her design for yet another historical occasion, Tracy Reese held her spring 2014 runway show at Lincoln Center Sunday afternoon. But instead of keeping the inspiration domestic, the designer jetted down to Havana (figuratively) for her upcoming collection.

Sunday may be a day of rest for most people, but during fashion week, we're still out and snapping all the cool stuff we see. From a late night Nicki Minaj spotting at Alexander Wang's after party to um, naked people (really!) outside of DKNY, we saw some pretty mind-blowing stuff. Check out everything we saw on day four.

This New York Fashion Week delivers 13 brands–with aesthetics ranging from avant-garde and edgy to classic and couture-inspired–being helmed (or co-helmed) by African American creatives. We are excited to see these individuals defying the odds many face as black designers in New York. Click through the slideshow to check them out.

While the VMAs may have been this week's most talked about red carpet, there was much more "fashion" in other parts of the world. Carey Mulligan and Mia Wasikowska, in Miu Miu and Proenza respectively, rocked the Venice red carpets; Leah Seydoux stunned in Louis Vouitton in Paris; and the First Lady was a vision in Tracy Reese in D.C. Click through for all that and the rest of this week's best dressed!

Elle Fanning looks adorable in Givenchy's Bambi sweatshirt on the inaugural cover of Australia's Miss Vogue. {Vogue Australia} Here's the nail polish collaboration toothpaste enthusiasts around the world have been waiting for (wait, what?): Colgate x Nails Inc.. {Grazia} China Machado, 83-year-old stunner and former muse to the great Richard Avedon, says she doesn't worry about aging. If our future turns out anything like her life, we'll be begging time to speed up. {The Cut}

President Obama and his wife Michelle hit the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC for the Let Freedom Ring Commemoration, with the First Lady wearing an elegant Tracy Reese frock. The First Lady is pretty conscientious when it comes to selecting her outfits for public occasions; it's fitting she chose to wear an African American designer to celebrate such a watershed moment in the Civil Rights movement.

We've all been there: Your friend gets engaged and asks you to be a bridesmaid. So thrilling! Until you remember that you'll be marching down the aisle in a bridesmaids dress, and suddenly images of Fritz Bernaise are dancing in your head. Breathe easy--it doesn't have to be that way.
