Beyoncé wore a neon pink shirt by Michael Kors and a patchwork-print skirt by Etro on a shopping trip in New York City yesterday. She topped off the look with a wide-brimmed hat, round sunglasses, and an Alexander Wang bag.
What do you think about Bey's skirt? Are you feeling the funky patterns? Or do you think it resembles a bedspread?
After scouring twenty-plus countries' gene pools, Ford Models crowned its latest "Supermodel of the World." The lucky girl is 17-year-old Argentina native Sofia Paul, who receives a six-figure contract with the agency, and, hopefully, a nice sash or something prominent emblazoned with her new title.
Madonna released the commercial for her new "Truth or Dare" fragrance yesterday. And would you look at that: It's too risqué to air on ABC! A source — likely someone from Madonna's PR team trying to drum up more near-patented "edgy ol' Madge at it again" press — told the Post, "[the network] came back with a list of changes. They say they want her bra digitally made bigger, and to extend higher to cover more of her chest, and her corset longer to cover more of her bottom." ABC also wanted less-suggestive writhing (as if Madonna can writhe in any other way). Even with edits in place, ABC will only air the ad either after 9 p.m. or, hilariously, during The View.
"But for the face I'm much more scared," the Italian Vogue editor confessed. "I have a lot of wrinkles around my eyes, but I'm scared that after I wouldn't have the same look. If I had to do something, I would do plastic surgery instead of injections, that's for sure, because you don't know what happens."
It's finally temperate enough outside that you can store that gross puffy thing you've dragged around all winter and graduate to a stylish spring coat. Of course, it's still not exactly warm, so scarves, sweaters, and hats come in handy, too. Model Ruby Aldridge, captured in Paris by Altamira, pulls off the look, as did Maritsa K., shot in Istanbul for Maritsa.co (shown). Look out for lots of cropped leather jackets, stripped-down trench coats, and thick blazers in this week's style roundup. Happy Friday!

This morning, the Internet informed us that today is National Cleavage Day. Our discovery went something like this:
Charmant: According to Twitter, it's National Cleavage Day.
Mosstheboss: I won't be celebrating.
Charmant: Well, I'm physically incapable of participation.
The designer collaborated with high-end British store Fortnum & Mason on a collection of Easter eggs that are luxurious and pretty enough to justify not eating — if you're one of those silly people. The worlds of fashion and chocolate don't collide too often, but when they do, the results are always delicious.

She covers the new issue styled in a crisp white shirt, straw hat, and delicate, drawn-on mustache. And lo: Fashion folk continue to enjoy fake facial hair on pretty ladies, but perhaps this is just a way to distinguish Christy's contemporary covers from her old-school ones. She's really made it big now.
After seasons of sky-high platforms dominating the runways — leading some to lament their ubiquity — ladylike pumps have sprung up for spring. And what we call the pump, the British have coined the court shoe — a sharply pointed toe with the perfect curve around the top of the foot to highlight just a hint of toe cleavage for a dose of subtle sex appeal. Heel heights can range from kitten to a teetering four inches for a look that's very "nonchalant French girl" when paired with slightly cropped, cuffed jeans.
Taking cues from Louis Vuitton's and Nina Ricci's catwalks, retailers are offering up court shoes in a variety of colors, patterns, and textures. For the purist, Ann Taylor stocks a sleek black version in a faux snakeskin, while Manolo Blahnik's BB pump comes in array of colors ranging from neon brights to sleek exotics. And if it's pattern you're seeking, ASOS and Oscar de la Renta rendered theirs in a variety of seasonally appropriate florals. Click ahead to see these and more in our slideshow.
