BANG Like Kim Kardashian for New Years!

(Photo via Instagram)
.. Of course by "BANG" I mean Kim K's freshly cut bangs!

Kim Kardashian has bangs again! And, of course, they came courtesy of the one-and-only celebrity hairstylist Chris McMillan, who if you remember is the infamous mastermind behind "The Rachel" and the death of Miley Cyrus' bun.

She's not the only one to undergo the chop recently, everyone from Beyonce to Britney Spears to Sophia Bush has been basking in bangs, uh, bangin' moment.

So, we're dying to know, what do you think of her new hairstyle? Loving the bangs or missing her long face-framing strands already? Will you be joining the celeb BANG trend, and ringing in the New Year with haute bangs for yourself?

Pharrell Williams Hits Art Basel In A Camo Tux!


Depending on who you ask, there are no rules in fashion. And if there were rules, Pharrell Williams would break them all. He continues to change the game when it comes to music and style in Hip Hop.

This past weekend, he turned heads with his fiancee Helen Lasichanh, as he attended a few Art Basel events in Miami dressed in a Camo Tuxedo Suit designed by Montclair Gamma Bleu. He completed his ensemble with a pair of suede Oxfords and Raybans.

Here's How to Know if Your Uggs Are Real

(Getty Images/PacificCoastNews.com/Getty Images)
Are you wearing Uggs right now? Then we have some questions for you. (Aside from "Why?" Jay-kay! We get it. Those things are warm.)

You see, with the holidays approaching, there are more fake Uggs (fuggs?) out there than ever, and Ugg Australia wants to make sure shoppers know how to spot the real deal. That's why they sent us a three-point checklist detailing how to protect yourself from the great faux Ugg epidemic of 2012. Let's review:

(Ugg Australia)


1. Is the sheepskin lining in one piece?

Uggs are made with one piece of "Grade A twin-faced" sheepskin lining. While we don't know what that means exactly, it's safe to assume that if the furry bits on your boots look patchy, you're probably wearing fakes.

2. Is there a hang tag?

Ugg Australia doesn't use hang tags on its products—probably so as not to rip the boots' gloriously fuzzy lining. So, if you see a tag dangling off those Uggs you're about to buy, back away.

3. Are the soles flexible?

Most counterfeits have stiff soles, while real Uggs are quite bendy. That's why noted Ugg enthusiast Andre Leon Talley can glide around in them so gracefully.

So, to review, even if it looks like an Ugg, and feels like an Ugg, it may not be an Ugg. And, if you even think about buying fauxs, no matter how cheap they are, just imagine this face, judging you.

5 Covetworthy Outfits from Beyonce's Instagram

(Instragram)
Who run Instagram? Beyonce! On election day, the pop star posted a snapshot of herself in a "Texans for Obama" tee to Instagram under the name BaddieBey, and she's been uploading editorial-worthy outfit shots ever since.

Queen Bey's Instagram account is totally fascinating, because it gives us a peek at what she wears when she's not on the red carpet, and, as it turns out, she dresses like a fashion blogger! From her lace Maison Michel bunny ears and Mary Katrantzou shirtdress to her pop-art-inspired 3.1 Phillip Lim sweater, Beyonce's fashion selfies wouldn't look too out of place on Tumblr. And her grabbing-your-own-arm poses, topknots, and industrial backdrops only add to the street style star vibes.

Behold: Our five favorite shots (so far!):

1. Maison Michel Bunny Ears, Rag & Bone Printed Pants


2. Mary Katrantzou Dress


3. Charlotte Olympia Flats


4. 3.1 Phillip Lim Sweater


5. Tibi Top and Pants

Just One of the Guys: Rihanna's Menswear Moment


Rihanna is taking her December GQ Men of the Year cover to heart, showing up at a London event, during of her 777 tour, in some slick menswear stolen straight from the European runways.

The singer threw a cobalt Fall '12 Raf Simons DB jacket over an Acne bold striped sleeveless shirt and pants set, seen in that brand's Spring '13 show, for a pairing that puts most guys to swagger shame. Is it any wonder she's GQ's Obsession of the Year?

Kendall Jenner Lands a Women's 'Vogue' Cover

(Miss Vogue Australia)
Guess which tangential Kardashian is the first in the family to land a bona fide Vogue cover? None other than budding supermodel Kendall Jenner! The second-to-youngest daughter of Kris and Bruce Jenner—and half-sister to the infamous Kardashian clan—appears on the latest cover of Miss Vogue Australia.

Check out all the photos over on Vogue.com.au—and tell us what you think in the comments section, below... do you think Kim is jealous? Maybe...


Kim herself has never covered a women's issue of Vogue. She did cover an issue of L'Uomo Vogue—Italian Men's Vogue—earlier this year.

Did Rihanna Just Call Rita Ora a Copycat?

(Photos by Getty)
Imitation might be the sincerest form of flattery, but Rihanna is the furthest from flattered after Rita Ora's recent appearance at the MTV EMAs.

According to a report in The Sun, RiRi is "pissed off" that the up-and-coming British singer is stealing her style, and the girls' Roc Nation manager—yup, Jay-Z, himself!—was called in to handle the sitch. 

“Rihanna was furious when she spotted Rita Ora’s dress for the EMAs, a rose gown that looked like one she wore in 2010," a source told The Sun. “But she was even more annoyed when Rita went on stage using an umbrella as a prop."

If you remember, the Bajan singer wore this breathtaking Elie Saab Couture gown to the American Music Awards back in 2010:


And here's another look at the strikingly similar Marchesa gown Ora sported just a few weeks ago; plus the umbrella (ella, ella) that ignited RiRi's fury:


Was this a sheer co-inky-dink, or is Ora blatantly ripping off Rihanna's style? And more importantly, does this finally count as the Hova's 100th problem? Feel free to speculate wildly in the comments below!

You guys know I love Rita Ora, and her style, and I don't think Rihanna has ANY room to call anyone a copycat.... Go Rita!!
