Karl Lagerfeld: Fun Facts About the Chanel Designer

Jun 7, 2012 @ 6:15 pm

What a week for Karl Lagerfeld! In addition to designing Drew Barrymore’s Chanel wedding dress and opening his new Little Black Jacket exhibit in New York City, the designer found time to discuss his new kitten, Choupette. “She is like a kept woman,” he told WWD of his pampered pet. “She has two personal maids, for both night and day. She is beyond spoiled.” It’s these kinds of quirky particularities that have become part of the designer’s worldwide appeal. Read more fun facts about Kaiser Karl in the gallery!

In Your 20s? Nina Dobrev’s Hairstylist on the Most Flattering Styles

Jun 7, 2012 @ 3:30 pm

If your teen years were riddled with hair risks you’d rather forget, redeem yourself by finding out what flatters you now. “A lot of experimenting goes on in the twenties, from finding the right hue and style, to trying out bangs and layers,” said hairstylist Cervando Maldonado, who works with Nina Dobrev. “This is the time to find a look that suits you and your lifestyle.” Take your face shape, hair texture and personality into account when choosing your best look. Maldonado recommends pumping up your already voluminous locks with mousse for an extra boost. Run the product from mid-lengths to ends while hair is still damp, then blow-dry with a round boar bristle brush.

Plus, find out looks for any age!
