Nail Polish News: McQueen, Mad Men and Gossip Girl

Jul 29, 2010 @ 3:47 pm

We love a good reason to try a new nail polish–and now we have several. Yesterday we mentioned that Nicole by OPI is launching four shades inspired by our favorite Upper East Side crew—the Gossip Girls, of course. With hues like “Spotted” (a gold-flecked jade) and “Scandals, Secrets and Sparkles” (a shimmering silver), we’re instantly transported to our dream penthouse apartment. But it turns out that’s not the only new tv-themed lacquer collection: Today it was announced that Nailtini is collaborating with Mad Men‘s stylist, Janie Bryant (who also launched a QVC collection), on four shades “inspired by fabrics used in cocktail dresses during the era—velvets, satins and lamés,” according to WWD.

Jul 29, 2010 @ 11:53 am

Twilight heartthrob Robert Pattinson has been hard at work on the set of his new film Water for Elephants (in which he co-stars opposite Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon). But something’s missing: his signature long, messy locks! Instead, the actor is sporting a slicked-back, clean-cut look. The new haircut is completely different from the wild ‘do we first fell in love with . . . but he still looks very handsome, no? Take the poll after the jump and tell us what you think of Pattinson’s brand new ‘do!

True Blood Star’s First Fashion Shoot

Jul 29, 2010 @ 10:26 am

The August issue of InStyle features a stunning 8-page fashion story starring True Blood actress Deborah Ann Woll. And while the statuesque, alabaster-skinned redhead makes the perfect model for designer Marc Jacobs’ acclaimed Fall 2010 collection—she poses in four very different, very dramatic dresses and a fur-trimmed tweed coat—the 25-year-old confessed on set that it was, in fact, her first-ever fashion shoot. “I’m very new to all this,” she admitted. “Growing up, I made some of my own clothes. I still have jeans that I was wearing five or six years ago. I’m not a fashion maven.” Maybe not, but she is gorgeous. See the rest of the pictures—and read fashion director Hal Rubenstein’s interview with Marc Jacobs—in the current InStyle, available on newstands now!
