Who Had the Best Jewel-Encrusted Hair Accessory?


Updated 03/03/12 7:05 AM · Posted by · 0 comments

There's never a better time than the Oscars to bring out the jewel-encrusted hair accessories, just like the ones Kate Mara and Paula Patton elegantly wore at this year's festivities. While Kate and Paula's pieces were more elaborate, Zooey Deschanel opted for a more casual, square-shaped sparkle, further proving that, just like your good china, there's no reason not to bring out your fanciest goods for any occasion. All three looks dazzle, but now it's time for you to vote: Which star shone the brightest in her brilliant barrette?

Bernhard Willhelm Does Some Serious Gender Bending


Updated 03/02/12 12:25 PM · Posted by · 0 comments


Designer Bernhard Willhelm made his Paris Fashion Week show extremely memorable with models who gave the phrase "dude looks like a lady" a whole new meaning. On one side, models had demure, pulled-back hair and typically feminine makeup. But on the other, they looked more like Captain Jack Sparrow. Other models had half-mime, half-cartoon, or half-checkerboard faces as well. It was all very Victor/Victoria (or Two Face, if you prefer Batman to Julie Andrews), but Willhelm is known for his lavish, unconventional shows, so this is par for the course.

Last year, his menswear show centered on mostly nude bodybuilders, and past presentations have involved live science experiments, headdresses made from arugula, and gold spray-painted bananas worn as headbands. Paris sometimes seems like a contest to see which designer can be the most outlandish, and so far this year, Bernhard Willhelm is winning.
