Duchess Kate Was NOT Wearing Real Fur: All woodland creatures can now breathe a sigh of relief. After garnering praise from the International Fur Foundation and extreme criticism from PETA (shocker) over a shearling-type jacket she wore on an outing with Wills, the Palace sent out a press release stating that the fur worn by the Duchess formerly known as Kate Middleton was, indeed, faux. {Vogue UK} Get Ready for CK One Cosmetics: After 18 years as a brand, CK One will introduce its first-ever makeup collection. The reasonably priced cosmetics will launch in the US exclusively at Ulta stores in April. The beauty products, which are faced by the likes of Lara Stone and and Abbey Lee Kershaw, won't be about transformation (hello, digital alteration...), but about "looking real, defining yourself and adding intensity.” {WWD, subscription required} Daniel Radcliffe Does Bullett Magazine: If it's wrong for me to be strangely attracted to Dan Rad on his Bullett cover, why does it feel so very right? {MTV Style}

Kate Middleton’s long, shiny hair is one of her style trademarks, and she was universally praised for wearing it down on her wedding day instead of in some tortured updo. While it looked chic and almost effortless, a lot of practice actually went into that hairstyle. The tool of choice? A plastic tiara that the team at the Richard Ward salon in London bought at Claire’s Accessories. It cost £6.50, which is about $10. According to the Telegraph, they picked up the tiara, taped up some windows in a back office so no one could spy on them, and practiced on a personal assistant. The Middletons’ long-time hairdresser, James Pryce, also shared the secret for how they fastened the real tiara.
