The Sloppy Bun Evolves!!

For two completely different TV personalities, Kim Kardashian and Kelly Osbourne sure have similar taste in kooky hairstyles. Both Kardashian and Osbourne have been spotted around town wearing the same twisted topknot multiple times in the past week. Funny enough, they've also been wearing similar floral printed motorcycle jackets too. Hm. Are they secret soulmates?

Kelly Osbourne, known for her light purple-ish gray locks, usually experiments with looser hairstyles and updos—but this month, she wore a sky-high, super tight, bun to both the Chris Benz' presentation at New York Fashion Week last week and around London Fashion Week two days ago.

Over on E!, Kim Kardashian always pulls her hair back in the sleekest and tightest updos. Usually, her buns are bigger and flatter. But just like Osbourne, Kardashian's topknot appeared tall and twisted as she flew to Australia.

Obsession of the Day: Jeremy Scott's Spring 2013 Gold Machine Gun Paillettes

Jeremy Scott, the wild child of New York Fashion Week, showed a concise and well-edited spring 2013 collection at Milk Studios yesterday afternoon to a crowd that included this season's most ubiquitous front-rower, Olympian Ryan Lochte—who was sitting next to Tyra Banks, celebrity stylist Johnny Wujek, and Paris Hilton. 

There were some amazing details in Scott's spring 2013 Middle-East-meets-B-boy-with-a-French-luxury-fashion-house-send-up collection. The sequined leopard-patterned black-and-gold mini-burqas, the toga-draped, classically printed and subtly pleated silk scarf dresses—for both men and women!—and this one amazing placement-print swimsuit:

Our biggest obsession, though, were the machine-gun gold pailletes that dangled off the sheer mesh dresses (top). Political statement or fashion statement, we like seeing a bit of toughness and aggression on the runway every once in a while.

Here are five of our favorite looks from the spring 2013 Jeremy Scott collection:

Solange Knowles In Mixed Prints for NYFW

Solange Knowles is the queen of rocking prints on prints on prints.

She was spotted making her way around Fashion week in a burgundy and blue mixed printed dress accessorized with a yellow purse and cheetah print pumps. Earlier in the week, she was spotted checking out vintage Kenyan designs front row at the Suno Runway show as well as designs by Tibi. She was also spotted at the Alexander Wang Fashion week event dressed in mixed prints while wearing a hat by South African designer Babatunde. She scooped up the hat during her recent visit to Cape Town where she filmed a new music video.

Solange was also spotted in a Nicola Easy print top as she sat front show at the Tibi show with her son Julez earlier in the week.

For spring 2013, Rachel Roy unleashed collection full of electro-bright hues, quirky prints—birds mixed with skulls, anyone?—and flowy fabrics. But what really caught our attention at the presentation were the killer cute accessories.

There were tons of compact crossbody bags in the mix (see above)—all in exotic textures and patterns like croc and snakeskin.

And who doesn't love a good amy party? Diamond cuffs, floral-painted bangles—and how cute is this—friendship bracelets brought a bit of festivity to each eclectic look.

Also noteworthy, and an often forget accessory due to it's functional purpose—belts! We love how they were injected with a vibrant pop of pattern.

Fashion Week: Street Style Bloggers

VOGUE Street Style Blog Photos

Location: Fashion Week
Tribe: Street Style Bloggers

The fiercest of the Fashion Week tribes, this subculture of show-goers treat dressing like a competitive sport. Come Fashion Week, you can find these style junkies in their natural habitat peacocking around the Lincoln Center. Independent creatures by nature, members can be witnessed posing solo for their next blog entry or to lure street style photographers. The best of the best stake out the front row at major fashion shows in their can't-look-away designer attire.

Defining markings: Bright hues (no black or basic denim here), deliberate mismatching (in all imaginable ways), and/or statement EVERYTHING (shoes, bag, jewelry). They've even been known to pull off such style conundrums as sequined harem pants, flame shoes, and enormous neon clutches.

Chado Ralph Rucci Spring 2013: Haute Hues

A pristine, glossy white backdrop and catwalk set the mood for Chado Ralph Rucci's exquisite spring collection. Paula Abdul, Martha Stewart and Jay Manuel took front row (random, we know).

The models wore their hair in slicked back rolled-under buns while dark liner with a touch of red encircled their eyes. As for the clothes? Ralph Rucci knows how to channel the power of color better than any other New York designer. The only American designer ever invited to show Haute Couture on the Paris runways, Rucci's work is among the most-coveted among the fashion cognoscenti.

For spring, sleek whites were juxtaposed against hot pinks, oranges, and yellows. Billowing structural silhouettes were his canvas for the bold hues and rich textures.

Check out our five favorite looks and see just what earned a standing ovation!
