Our next "How to Make It in Fashion" conference is less than two weeks away!

Fashion doesn't have to be so serious all the time, and these guys are the proof.

Louboutins and pajamas both made the list.

It's just a fact -- men are harder to shop for than women.

Remember how fun it was to pick out your outfit for the first day of school? New school year, new outfit, new you, right? Click through to see what all your favorite fashion industry insiders--everyone from Eva Chen to Oscar PR Girl's Erika Bearman to Rebecca Minkoff to DKNY PR Girl Aliza Licht--wore to go back to school--and shop the updated look for today.

Women and men from across the world (some as far as Bombay) were sitting on the edge of their seats at our first ever "How to Make it in Fashion" conference a few weeks ago. The topic? How to network (the right way) in this competitive industry. Trust us, the advice was good--and that's because it came from industry pros like Melanie Bender, co-founder & partner of communications firm Post+Beam, Alisa Gould-Simon, co-founder of style sharing app Pose, Amber Venz, president & co-founder of affiliate link program rewardStyle, John Jannuzzi, a contributing editor at Lucky, and Ruthie Friedlander, the senior digital manager for The Row. They may be young, but they still have years of experience and had much knowledge to share. Read on to see what we learned.

Dads. They get some pretty funny ideas about style. Like that wearing Hawaiian shirts is acceptable year-round. Or that socks with sandals is a totally cool look. But, though they may not be the most obvious style icons in our life, they've certainly passed down their own brand of sartorial wisdom--for better or worse. So, in honor of Father's Day, we asked our favorite fashion and celebrity friends--from Leandra Medine and Olivia Palermo to Wyclef Jean and Richard Chai--to share the most memorable style advice they ever got from their dad.

It sounds cliche, but to succeed in this biz, it isn't just what you know, but who you know. Don't have any great connections as of yet? Fear not! We've rounded up some networking masters to show you how it's done at our "Right Ways to Network" panel, happening during our first-ever conference. Here's what to look forward to:

Today, Tumblr--home of gifs, memes, and NSFW photos--joins the ranks of corporate America: It's just been bought by Yahoo for $1.1 billion. Besides goofy cat videos and loads (seriously, loads) of porn, Tumblr also hosts one of the most passionate, creative, and irreverent fashion communities out there on the internets. So now the question is: How will that community, which so far has thrived on the free-for-all vibe that prevails at Tumblr, be affected by the new acquisition?

Fashionista is excited to host its first ever day-long event, How to Make It in Fashion. This isn't just another conference where you leave with a goodie bag and nothing else. (Although there will be a great one.) Along with tips on networking, alternative career paths, and plain old inspiring success stories, you'll have a chance to actually talk one-on-one with many of our speakers (including Zac Posen, the Man Repeller's Leandra Medine, Rebecca Minkoff and more) as well as Fashionista editors about how to kick-start your career or take it to the next level. You'll get real, take-home advice, make connections, and who knows? Maybe you'll take the first step towards your dream job. All the deets and how to sign up, right this way.

Apparently Kate Middleton said thanks, but no thanks to being klothed by the Kardashian kollection--and sent back some clothes she'd been sent. {HuffPo} Jessica Biel has confirmed what we all suspected already, that her honeymoon was amazing. She gushed to Scarlett Johansson about the trip to Tanzania. {US Weekly} Is Beyonce a budding fashion blogger? The few Instagram photos that she has shared seem to suggest so, and we're not complaining! {Refinery29}

From the increasingly well-documented street style scene outside of Pitti Uomo (it's starting to rival the scene outside any major fashion week venue) to the number of nattily dressed gents we see walking down the street in NYC, there's no question that dudes have been stepping it up in the personal style department. There's even a burgeoning menswear (that's #menswear if you're scrolling through Twitter or Tumblr) clique, comprised of editors at print publications like GQ and Complex as well as bloggers at sites like Four Pins and Selectism and Hypebeast. They are the arbiters of men's style, speakers of the language of #menswear. Yes, they have their own language and we dont' understand at all. Cop some jawns? That dude is sprezzy? Say what?

You know how brands partner with bloggers to create editorial content and capitalize on their influence? And how those brands pay bloggers so they can make a living? Fohr Card, a new start up founded by former Tumblr fashion director Rich Tong, Holly Stair and James Nord (all of whom met through Tumblr), aims to streamline that process for bloggers and brands alike. We chatted with Tong's co-founder Holly Stair about how the project came about, the response from bloggers and brands, and what's next.

At Lucky magazine's Fashion and Beauty Blog Conference, bloggers came from all over the country to network and listen in on insight from speakers like the Macy's CEO Terry Lundgren, Rachel Zoe, The Man Repeller's Leandra Medine, Barneys' Simon Doonan and reality TV star-turned-fashion designer/blogger Lauren Conrad. Naturally, awesomeness ensued. Here's the four most important things I learned throughout the course of the day.

Mark Zuckerberg is having quite a month. The Father of Facebook just turned 28, bought out Instagram for $1 billion and is now facing the most lucrative point in his career: Going IPO on Friday. We’d offer him a congratulatory “poke” but sadly, that option’s no longer available. For those of you who aren’t familiar with the IPO acronym, it stands for Initial Public Offering-- meaning that the company will finally be open to stock holders where the likes of Wall Street—-and even you!—- can purchase a part of the social media company. But with the estimated $100 billion that’s supposedly coming his way, we’re wondering whether the Harvard dropout will invest in a new wardrobe. Will he finally change out of his usual uniform consisting of dowdy college hoodies, sweat-drenched Adidas shower flip flops, and tattered baggy jeans, into something more uh, dapper? Better yet, the question posed is this: Can all the money in the world transform someone from HTML geek to sartorial chic? Fashionistas can only hope! To give him an extra boost, we’ve enlisted the help of several fashion experts from designers like Carlos Campos, Alan Eckstein from Timo Weiland and Simon Kneen of Banana Republic, to editors from GQ and Esquire, to buyers and the likes to see what kind of advice they’d shed onto Silicon Valley’s hottest star. And regardless of whether he takes our suggestions or not (note to Marky Mark: you really, really should!), happy IPO Day! We’d definitely like to send you a congratulatory poke soon—- this time, live and in-person.
