OK, we know that Solange is Beyoncé’s younger sister. She’s been compared to her a lot, as is the case with any siblings--their comparisons just happen to take place in the spotlight of the media. Solange has had a moderately successful music and acting career. She’s dabbled in modeling, as the face of Armani Jeans, and for her family’s clothing line, House of Deréon. She got married at the age of 17, had a child, and ultimately got divorced; all this personal drama certainly affected her career a bit. She’s never really come out from her sister’s shadow...until recently. Solange’s look has changed dramatically, first of all. She used to favor long soft diva locks, lots of makeup, and pretty dresses. She skews decidedly more hipster lately: natural hair in a giant afro, less makeup, playing up her less-hourglass-than-Beyoncé’s frame. It seems to be working, because the industry has come calling.

It’s Memorial Day. While it’s not officially summer on the calendar for a few weeks yet, mentally we’re in summer mode. It’s in the 80s here in NYC and everyone is in sandals and sundresses--which means it’s time to ditch the greige nails. We’ve searched high and low for manicure inspiration for the summer, and found some amazing picks. Click through to see some of the best and brightest manis for the summer:

It’s become the norm rather than the exception that models in makeup and skincare ads are retouched to death. The fact that the recent “unretouched” Makeup Forever ad made such news is a testament to this fact of life in the beauty industry. But cosmetics companies have been getting in trouble for this, particularly in the UK. Over the years, there have been a lot of complaints, especially about mascara ads which depict models in fake eyelashes. L’Oreal Paris was targeted in 2007 because Penelope Cruz was wearing fakes in a Telescopic Mascara commercial. Rimmel is a repeat offender, giving Kate Moss digitally enhanced lashes in 2007 and Georgia May Jagger fake lashes last year, both in mascara ads. Two UK organizations, the Committee of Advertising Practice (CAP) and Broadcast Committee of Advertising Practice (BCAP) just released new advertising guidelines for cosmetics advertising. The guidelines address pre-production (styling and makeup) and post-production (re-touching). Some of the guidelines include:

Zooey Deschanel may be the most lovable starlet working today. From her peachy singing voice to her penchant for retro garb, she's always a charmer. But when it seemed that she was finally getting her due recognition with a Rimmel London campaign and the cover of Flare Magazine, she's been airbrushed into oblivion. So what gives, airbrushers? What beef have you got with Zooey?

Royal Mistake or Royal History? The designer of this dress that Kate Middleton was wearing in a fashion show when Prince William first saw her, which we have to say is pretty ugly and a bit slutty, might be worth £100,000 at this point, but the designer "probably" won't sell it. "She looked fabulous in my dress and I think she could become a style icon like Princess Diana - so the dress could become part of fashion history," she said. She also said she would love to design Kate's wedding dress. We really hope not. {Daily Mail} eBay Gets Royal: Within a week of Kate and Wills' engagement announcement, the number of Ebay items with the terms "Kate Middleton" and "Prince William" has increased dramatically. If your interest in British royals borders on obsession, there is plenty of memorabilia to be found, including mouse pads, thimbles and wedding ring replicas. {Inside Source} Dress Code: Apparently school isn't the only place where miniskirts can be banned.
