They’re regulars on the runway, and when they step off the catwalk and onto the street, their looks provide endless outfit inspiration. The members of the ruling millennial model squad, from Bella to Kendall, are getting a reputation for cool off-duty style, from corset-inspired trousers to the crop top for night. Now another of their crew, Hailey Baldwin, is again putting her own spin on traditional feminine dressing. In the past Baldwin has stepped out in a velvet slip or skinny leather leggings, girly pieces she subverts with boyish undertones: cream Timberlands worn with apolished post-gym outfit. And as she left Soho House in Malibu this weekend, she did so in an ensemble that married all those elements into one look.
The ladylike lace dress from Australian label Manning Cartell evokes Victorian-era romanticism while its sheer material speaks to modern-day festival girl vibes. Simple Kenneth Cole lace-ups make for a sporty, effortless finish to a breezy midsummer style.

Friday, January 8, 2016 Singer August Alsina is still battling pesky gay rumors, but he may be redeemed by his association with an Instagram butt model. A member of Alsina’s transgender fan club spotted the busty IG model behind the wheel of Alsina’s car and gave chase, screaming “You do not live in Atlanta. GO HOME!” Video of the sighting was posted on @Auggiealsinanation Instagram blog on Thursday. But some Alsina fans remain skeptical. “How y’all know that’s his car?” asked one IG user. Others suggested Miracle may be an August Alsina fan who bought a car just like the one he drives. Watt’s bills herself on Instagram as a model, businesswomen and entrepreneur who sells false eyelashes via her personal website:www.TheMiracleLash.com. When St. Louis high school senior India Ross decided she wanted her prom dress to be a nod to Beyoncé's 2015 Met Gala look, she did not go the subtle route. Using materials from Walmart, eBay, and Michaels, Ross absolutely nailed her DIY of the memorable Givenchy gown — and subsequently became the coolest high schooler ever.
The teenager's prom look was on everyone's radar after she shared various photos of herself posing in the creation — during, pre-, andpostprom. Unfortunately, many people online were putting down the quality of Ross's dress. In an Instagram caption, Ross fired back and defended her DIY gown: "Let's make this clear I do not think I'm Beyoncé but she's my inspiration." Adding, "Just because she has on a #Givenchy dress don't mean I suppose [sic] to have a million dollar dress on. I still look so god damn fine in my Walmart, eBay, Michaels, cheap looking #givenchy dress." Rather unsurprisingly, Ross is enrolled to study fashion business and fashion merchandising at Columbia College Chicago this Fall. Look ahead for more photos of Ross's incredible slayage. 5/15/2016 0 Comments BEAUTY\t> CELEBRITY BEAUTYMeet Maye Musk, the Model (And Mother to Elon) Who Proves Beauty Has No AgeIt goes without saying that Maye Musk looks great. The 68-year-old model and doyenne of the Musk family—you’re likely to have heard of her sons, Elon and Kimbal, two of this era’s groundbreaking entrepreneurs—recently signed to IMG. Inking a contract with a prestigious agency is a significant moment for any model, but for Musk it’s a banner moment not for herself but for all women looking to be defined by more than their age. “I hope it gives other women hope that they can look good and feel good when they are past 60,” says Musk, via phone from her home in Los Angeles. “I was on a shoot yesterday, and the young models were so excited to see me because they say it gives them hope, too, that they can carry on.”
Musk began her fashion journey at the age of 15 in Pretoria and Johannesburg, South Africa, becoming a popular model in the 1960s and working consistently through the next five decades, doing everything from starring in campaigns for cosmetics giants like Clinique and Revlon to playing the heroine in Beyoncé’s atmospheric video for “Haunted.” In a business where most are lucky to last five years, Musk has managed to beat the odds while raising three children, picking up two Master of Science degrees, and running a practice as a dietitian. Photo: Getty Images The secret to her multifaceted success: Musk’s health and nutrition knowledge comes from both her studies and personal experience. Having lost 50 pounds in the mid-’90s after a brief stint as a plus-size model and having kept it off since, Musk is vigilant about what she consumes and how. “I think the biggest misconception about me is that people think I am naturally lean,” she says. “I am not. I have to eat healthfully all the time and be incredibly conscious about what I put into my body. Nutrition-wise, no matter how much knowledge you have, you need strategies to prevent weight gain. Plan ahead and avoid temptation. I still do that on a daily basis.” For Musk, food is fuel for the kind of life she wants to live. A focus on superfoods helps her maintain the energy she’s known for and provides an added bonus: flawless skin. “Feed the body well and your skin will look good. Eating well combines science with common sense,” she says. “The best way to maintain vitality is to eat when hungry, and not eat when not hungry. When starved, you become anxious and angry. When too full, all your energy goes to digesting your food, so you feel tired and like you’re in a food coma.” A fan of vitamin-rich veggies like pumpkin, sweet potatoes, spinach, greens, broccoli, and cauliflower, Musk says it’s easy to eat well without feeling like it’s work. “If you don’t like kale—I don’t—this doesn’t mean you won’t have good skin. There are many other vegetables and fruits with the same nutrients.” At home, she says, “I eat vegetarian with cereal, milk, yogurt, cheese, legumes, vegetables, fruit, whole-grain bread, brown rice, nuts. When eating out, I choose fish, meat, and chicken.” Musk’s beauty routine is similarly elemental. In fact, she’s so low-maintenance that she doesn’t know offhand the names of the few products she uses (soap, eye cream, moisturizer, sunscreen). Her trademark silver hair is kept fresh with monthly cuts and frequent experimentation—Serge Normant transformed it into a sleek chignon for the Met Gala—but she credits its health to nutrition and steering clear of dye. “If you eat well, the whole body and hair will be well fed,” she says. Her other tips? Washing hair after every photo shoot to remove product. “I then don’t blow-dry it, as it’s been tortured and needs a rest,” she says. “When there are a few breaks, I wash my hair every five days.” Free from most model vices—smoking, falling asleep in mascara, and champagne overindulgence among them—Musk and her no-frills routine are like a master class in how to age gracefully using common sense as a guide. But she does admit to relying on her best friend and stylist, Julia Perry, to keep from ever falling into a beauty or fashion rut. “Just as you start liking your new look, it’s already out of date,” Musk jokes. “I’m a nutrition scientist who models. Science nerds need experts to help us!” When one of the world’s most powerful apps undergoes a redesign, the Internet responds in the only way it knows how: by having a complete and utter meltdown. On Wednesday,Instagram debuted a new look and replaced its beloved Polaroid-like camera logo for an updated rainbow-gradient icon.
“The Instagram community has evolved over the past five years from a place to share filtered photos to so much more—a global community of interests sharing more than 80 million photos and videos every day,” Instagram’s blog post read. “Our updated look reflects how vibrant and diverse your storytelling has become.” Kylie wrote on her website:

At this point, she's a veteran to posing — so it's no surprise when she shot her June 2016 Elle USA cover, Bella put on her fiercest face. In bodysuits by Azzedine Alaïa, Oye Swimwear, and Jo De Mar, Bella turns up the edge — even giving off Parisian vibes in a grommet-clad beret. But look through her shots and you'll find her in tailored Givenchy separates, blazer undone, smirking with personality to show her true colors.
"My mom always taught me to think about something happy when I'm working, because it kind of shows through your face. I used to think about my horses, but now I think about other things," Bella explained in her feature, which you can read in full on May 17 when the issue hits newstands. Until then, read on to get the fashion details from the shoot — a sexy series of images for you and one major milestone for Bella. 5/13/2016 0 Comments Yes, You'll Want to Use the Word "Understated" to Describe Kim Kardashian's New Vogue CoverTypically clad in head-to-toe designer and contoured to "perfection," Kim Kardashian isn't exactly the poster child for understated style. But one glimpse at the reality-star-cum-fashion-force on the cover of Vogue Australia's June issue could convince you of just the opposite. Posing with barely there makeup in a collection of Yeezy pieces (what else?!), undone corsets, and a simple white palette (styled by friend and fashion influencer Christine Centenera), Kim's making a case for a less-is-more kind of beauty, though if her recent IRL appearances are any indication, this transformation may only go so far.
Either way, take a break from the glamourized Mrs. Kanye West and check out her refreshing switch-up in the pages of Vogue, out May 16. Image Source: Vogue Australia / Lachlan Bailey |
