For those of you who can’t wait for the Hunger Games, hitting theaters on March 23rd of next year, Lionsgate films is bringing you one more way to show your District 12 spirit—with nail polish! The collection is called “Colours of the Capitol” and launches on March 1, giving you a month’s worth of Katniss, Cinna, and Gale-inspired colors to flaunt on your fingertips before the movie is released. The Hunger Games-inspired collection first appeared in a leaked photo on the web last month, causing a serious stir. After all three companies involved (Lionsgate, All, and China Glaze) threatened to sue each other for the rights to the collection, the line was declared dead. Now the polish is back, with changes to some names—“Catnip” became “Fast Track,” and “Primrose” is now “Dress Me Up”—but in all the same colors. With natural mattes, subtle metallics, and eye-grabbing, glittering brights, the wide range of colors is sure to please loyal fans of the trilogy and die-hard fans of great nail color.

Three months ago, Raf Simons was allegedly on his way to YSL and Marc Jacobs was readying to sign on the dotted line of a major Dior contract. Now, Marc’s staying put at Louis Vuitton and it sounds like Simons will make the move to Dior. In October, Dior’s CEO Sidney Toledano told Vanessa Friedman at the Financial Times that he knew they’d have to appoint a Creative Director for the house before the year’s end—less than three weeks away. Today, WWD reports that LVMH is working out the final details of a contract with Simons. He’ll have to dissolve his recently extended contract with Jil Sander first, and work out a start date. Neither Dior or Simons has commented, but it’s a partnership the fashion world would love to see. Simons’ modernism and couture-like skills would be a perfect match for (and balance with) the history of the house of Dior. Hopefully today’s news leak doesn’t get in the way of an agreement.

Chanel Iman has been on a roll these past two months. Shortly after her turn on the Victoria’s Secret Runway in November, the model decamped to an island near Jamaica where she celebrated her 21st birthday with a reggae-themed party in the company of friends. ”After the VS show it’s all about me—me and my birthday, everyone knows it,” she told us at the launch for Belle & Clive, a new members-only shopping site that’s run by Bluefly.com. Iman was the evening’s host at a party where guests were treated to a sneak-preview of the website that launched yesterday. ”I’ve played around with it before tonight, and when I see something new that I really like I want to be a part of it,” Iman said of her involvement, just before choosing a color-blocked YSL leather tote as her gift for the evening. “It will be perfect for trips to the beach, it matches all of my really cute Missoni bikinis,” she giddily exclaimed in a fit of springy leaps. Alas, it’s nice to know that even VS Angels still appreciate some highfalutin swag. Belle & Clive launches today, request membership by clicking here

- The Apple Store recently had it's grand opening at Grand Central Station and one of the arrivals was Blake Lively! She really seemed to enjoy the event, even though she was a bit occupied chatting with a guy in the staff. What would Ryan Reynolds have to say about this, Blake?
