Joanna Coles

Michelle Tan will report to Joanna Coles in her new role.

The magazine's Editor-in-Chief Joanna Coles is an executive producer.

Watch out, Wintour.

How the lady mag's EIC plans to introduce a new generation of voters to the weighty issues affecting young women today.

And Tim Gunn asks, "Turn down for what?"

Have magazines gone too far in the pursuit of ad dollars from beauty companies?

Not many lunches in the fashion industry feature opening remarks by Senators Amy Klobuchar and Jeanne Shaheen, a former Secret Service agent as a tablemate, and a coat check shared with Georgina Chapman and Sky Ferreira. But then, not many industry lunches are hosted by Cosmopolitan editor in chief Joanna Coles.

Kate Upton heats up Hot Pockets's latest ad with Snoop Lion (formerly Dogg) as they wax poetic about microwaveable meat pastries in a trippy parody of Biz Markie's "Just a Friend." {US Weekly} Alexa Chung's writing process for her book It involved a One Direction onesie. Totally validates the Harry Styles cutout we have on our desk. {Telegraph} Chanel's new J12 Moonphase watch has a mechanical module that can track the phases of the moon, making it the perfect watch for the avid Susan Miller reader with expensive taste. {Chanel}

When Joanna Coles took the reins at Cosmo just over six months ago--right before the last fashion month--she cleaned house quickly, firing a bunch of staffers to make room for her dream team. Turns out she's not quite finished assembling the masthead. Cosmo has just named Shiona Turini as its new fashion market director.

Coles is clever, smart, and kind of a fabulous no-nonsense badass. Also, she loves Game of Thrones. In other words, she's awesome and we were delighted last night when she let us pick her brain at the Matrix Awards after party. Read on for our interview, in which she dishes on that Christine Quinn luncheon, why fashion and politics are so intertwined (and will continue to be), and all the details on the high-profile political event to which she is taking the cast of GoT.

Adopted New Yorker Alexa Chung looks lovely and seasonal--if a bit surprised to be gracing the cover of Time Out New York's Spring issue. {Time Out New York} Seeking out that Spring Breakers style? Opening Ceremony has collaborated with the upcoming film for an exclusive line that will include include mesh jerseys and cropped tees. {WWD} It's official: Karlie Kloss is now a full-fledged Victoria's Secret's Angel. {HuffPo} Fashion goes to the dogs! William Wegman's weimaraners star in Acne's spring ad campaign. {Grazia}

We have a confession to make: We are on tonight's episode of The Job, a new CBS reality show hosted by Lisa Ling (my journalism crush). It's our reality TV debut! The premise of the show is this: five candidates compete for the same job and jump through a bunch of hoops to try to get hired. The sought-after job on tonight's episode is an editorial assistant position at Joanna Coles's Cosmo. We are one of three "guest companies" (along with Who What Wear and Archetype Me) that can try to poach one of the candidates. You're going to just have to watch to see how it all pans out. But we wanted to introduce you to one of the candidates, 25-year-old Carlos Bell. His story is so inspiring, his fashion hustle so great, we just had to share. Read on to find out how he landed his first internship at GQ (and commuted 10 hours a day to get there) and what he's up to next.

Two things Cosmo's EIC Joanna Coles isn't too fond of: Internet porn and sex advice from gay men. Allow her to elaborate... {The Cut} These new Marc Jacobs-designed Diet Coke cans are way too cute to be recycled. {WWD} Beyonce proves once and for all who run the world, looking flawless in Dior for The Gentlewoman's spring/summer cover. {Fashion Bomb Daily} Velour no-more: LeAnn Nealz is taking off her tracksuit and stepping down as the chief creative officer of Juicy Couture next month. {Vogue UK}

Yet another Cosmopolitan staffer has parted ways with the magazine under Joanna Coles's still relatively new role as Editor in Chief.

To survive in this business, you've got to have more than talent. You've got to be shrewd, savvy, determined—and a crazy-hard worker.
