Famed British Photographer Corinne Day Passes Away

Corinne Day, the renowned English photographer that helped propel Kate Moss to Supermodel status ( she shot Moss' first Vogue cover in 1993) died this past weekend from brain cancer. She was 45 years old. She made a name for herself in the nineties by rejecting the glossy style of the eighties and embracing a cleaner more stylized editorial look.  An example of that can be seen in the British mag The Face, where a smiling 16-year old Kate Moss (who was also be a good friend of Day's) graces the cover. Her ability to flawlessly blend art and photography will be her lasting legacy.

Emmy 2010 Fashion Galore

So Awards Season is back! Sort of. The Emmy awards last night featured the stars of television in their Sunday best. And for the most part it was pretty non-dramatic. The colors of the night echoed various shades of navy, blue and purple. Black proved to be a popular choice which was a stark contrast to the bright sunny LA weather. There were some winners and losers of course. Both Parenthood actress Lauren Graham in Yigal Azrouel and Office star Mindy Kaling in (God knows what!) completely missed the mark this time around. Lauren Graham who normally plays it safe decided to take a risk and it cost her big time! And Kaling has always unsuccessfully pushed the envelope, maybe its time she played it safe! Anna Paquin was ready to conquer the red carpet in her Alexander McQueen ensemble. She gets points for effort but the gown over-powered the True Blood star's tiny frame. But her hair and makeup were flawless. Eva Longoria Parker was stunning in her Robert Rodriguez gown. Her dangling earrings added the right amoung of bling. The Closer's Kyra Sedgwick went for a bold burgundy Monique Lhuilller gown that accentuated her complexion and her flowy locks only added to her feminine appeal. Claire Danes in her Armani Prive gown definitely owned the night. She looked like a Greek goddess from head to toe. Close to perfection in my book. For more on the Emmy Fashion highlights visit zimbio.com.

Lady Gaga Does Vogue Hommes Japan

Lady Gaga is in the magazine business these days. She currently graces the September issue of Vanity Fair magazine and now she is striking an unfamiliar pose for the upcoming issue of Vogue Hommes Japan. Her gender-bending cover pic with its charming black and white background shows the pop startlet portraying the character "Jo Calderone", a Sicillian mechanic with a penchant for greasy attire and cigarettes. She clearly embraced this role! Must have been an interesting photo shoot. Wonder if they had 'Alejandro' playing in the background...

Trendy Look of The week - Alan Cumming

Why do I dig this outfit? It looks freakishly outlandish with a tendency to make an onlooker become dizzy. But the colors and vibrancy of this ensemble not to mention the immaculate tailoring makes it easy to root for actor Alan Cumming and support his decision to bravely don this three-piece suit from Moods of Norway. There is also a very good reason for this oddball choice and that has something to do with the fact that he is trying to plug the new Smurfs movie. He voices Gutsy Smurf. Not a bad way to publicize a film. Looking Chic, Cool and Collected!

Trendy Model of The Moment - Herieth Paul

Tanzanian born Herieth Paul, 16, is already making waves in the fashion world, and she hopes to to achieve Supermodel status by the time she hits 18. "My goal for modeling is that by 18, I'm going to be on every magazine. And model for everyone: Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Gucci, Prada. You name it, I'll do it!" This was her mission statement to WWD.com. She is definitely on her way to achieving her goal as she gets ready for her first catwalk appearance for New York fashion week. Her chameleon-like features matched with her flawlessly lithe build should serve her well.

Lauryn Hill Hits Us With "Repercussions"

The woman who defined the essence of music for me 10 years ago is back! Well, sorta. Her track titled Repercussions, is all over the web and it sounds like the Queen of Hip Hop is still in rare form! It is only a demo and most likely wont evolve into a chart topping hit. But if this is a preview of things to come, it's definitely been worth the wait!

Robyn Does It Again!

This is the perfect tune to cure you from your end of summer blues. Its funky and its brilliant. The Swedish popstar is back in a big way! Dance your way into fall with this energetic number.

Back To School And Looking So Good!

Going back to school is never something to look forward to, but the new sac a dos bosphore backpack from Louis Vuitton ($1410) will certainly make it a less painful experience. There is no better way to make new friends or become the teacher's pet!

Groove To This!

This would make an awesome backdrop sound for your end of summer soiree! If you are a fan of Bjork, then this re-mix will be a heavenly experience. Enjoy!

Rihanna Dazzles At Madison Square Garden

Rihanna took her look to another level Thursday night when she donned a black gown with red lights streaming out of it while performing at Madison Square Garden in NYC. Considering her fiery red hairdo its safe to say she is definitely on fire these days!

Bat Those Lashes!

Fuller, longer and colorful are the lashes of the moment. Its time to get dramatic and playful when dolling up for a night out or a night in (depending on your preference). Say goodbye to the generic black or brown shades and make way for the theatrics. A lot of brands are joining in on the fun supplying false eyelashes in an array of colors and styles. ILLAMASQUA, sells a set of them for $16 and the looks range from subtle to daring. Sephora also has a case of Glitter Lashes ($8) that are easy to apply and wont weigh your eyelids down. Being a girl is so much fun!

Studclog from Stuart Weitzman ($196.65) at Zappos

Deal from Franco Sarto ($119.00) at Zappos

Allston from Via Spiga ($185.00) at Zappos

Swiss from daniblack ($154.00) at Zappos


Clogs are now becoming a fashion mainstay, thanks to all the cool variations in texture and style. From the animal print to the peep-toe detail, clogs are anything but the boring footwear that we used to wear to make grocey store runs or tend the garden. They should definitely become every fashionistas best friend this fall.
