- At only 19 years old, this model/actress/singer/songwriter has quite the impressive resume. She’s often highlighted on style websites and blogs for her unique, edgy rocker-chic look, not to mention her famous famous head of hair. With her May 2011 debut release of her extended play (EP) As If!, her strong voice over pop influenced digital-beats will have you dancing to the rhythm of her catchy tunes. As for her budding modeling career, Sky has been featured in Calvin Klein’s CK One campaign ad, as well as numerous magazine features including making the cover of Vs. Magazine spring/summer edition. The NYC-based it-girl is now a regular at fashion shows and trendy event openings. Sky’s grungy and easygoing sense of fashion is always stylishly on point whether she’s dressing up (or down) for the red carpet, or just rocking her usual red lipstick, black leather jacket, and laced-up booties at parties and events. This eternally cool and effortlessly trendy downtown girl is certainly one to watch. And we must admit: she pulls off the purple hair with total perfection!

Rumors have been buzzing that hip-hop legend and style icon, Kanye West, noted for making argyle sweaters appropriate apparel for the toughest of hip-hop artists, will be wielding his well-known swag into what might turn out to be a well-respected womenswear label. Central St. Martin’s professor, Louise Wilson, confirmed the buzz, claiming that West will be collaborating with British fashion designers and former Central St. Martin’s pupil, Louise Goldin. Is this “collaboration” simply the fashion world’s version of lip syncing? Will this line be struck with the all-too-common Mandy-Moore curse of fallen celebrity fashion labels? We will find out when Kanye debuts at New York Fashion Week, this September.

Who: Leigh Lezark
What: Veuve Clicquot Gold Cup Polo Final
Wear: Peter Pilotto white silk dress, Nicholas Kirkwood silver python heels
It takes a little flair and a lot of audacity to make a polo match ensemble look edgy, and it seems that Misshapes DJ Leigh Lezark possesses a good amount of both. Looking innovative yet appropriate, Lezark donned a Peter Pilotto white silk dress from spring 2011 and Nicholas Kirkwood silver python heels to the Veuve this weekend. From the turntables to the turf, this DJ knows how to dress the part.

- The fall 2011 couture collections came and went in a whimsical whirlwind. With them, we’ve seen a whole host of trends: colored animal prints, shimmery black and white styles, flowing ensembles, and bizarre and beautiful pieces. The gowns were enough to floor us, but we can’t forget that runway trends don’t stop at the clothing; we blissfully found one prevalent beauty trend in all the shows: the au naturale look.

- Yes yes, we know. Emma Watson’s face is cemented onto every major fashion website right now. And many fashion magazines, too. We promise we’re not trying to overexpose her, but her makeup from the Deathly Hallows Part 2 premiere is too awesome not to talk about.

- Ancient Egyptian artifacts have lasted thousands of years, and over that time, millions of people have visited museums and ancient monuments to be reminded of the culture, beauty, and style of the now long-gone society.

- Lover her or hate her, former The Hills star Audrina Patridge looked good when she attended an event last weekend in Atlantic City. Instead of attracting attention in an ultra-tight outfit, the TV personality directed eyes to herself by choosing an unexpected color combo: orange and pink.

- It’s always fun to play with prints and colors in an outfit, and it’s certainly tempting to pile layer upon layers of jewelry. But it’s the classic pieces with unconventional silhouettes that make people do a double-take. From fashion bloggers to royalty, these women know that sometimes a few folds and cuts here and there can go a long way. Take the cue from these beautiful fashion icons who know that it’s all in the details.

- It’s the song we STILL can’t get out of our heads, the song that’s so hypnotizing that it’s certainly infected us with its poison. The mesmerizing music video for her song ‘E.T. (Extraterrestrial)’ featuring Kanye West (no surprise here as the rapper’s got a keen sense of style) portrays Katy Perry as a flawless alien—with breath-taking outfit changes—floating around with lightning quick flashes, helixes, and dystopic war visions. Although the vid came out in March, it’s time we take some cues from this video and try walking on a different fashion wavelength. While we may not be fans of Black Milk’s Steve Buscemi dress, the clothing company has some stellar (time to revive this word) galaxy dresses and leggings. Let us tell you, these dresses are out of this world…ha, ha. Whether you’re a skeptic or true-believer in all things out-there—dreams, aliens, space, and alternate universes—these inspired pieces belong in a realm of their own—and maybe even your own wardrobe. Glow like Katy Perry and feel the power as you transform yourselves in these supersonic items that we have searched far and wide for.
