ElleGirl- 2011 was a great year for outrageous hue highlights with celebrities like Dianna Agron, Sienna Miller, and Lauren Conrad experimenting with bright pinks in their hair. The trend—which we love—has carried over into 2012, with Dakota Fanning and others adding bursts of bright color to their locks. Want the look? Check out our stellar DIY and see how the stars are working candy colored hues below!

Dakota Fanning told ELLE UK that “you can’t worry about what other people think, especially if you’re a known person.” The teen fashion icon and college freshman started rocking pink tips last week and even if she doesn’t care what we think, we love it.

Snooki celebrated New Year’s Eve with a deep shade of pink in her long locks, and has kept the look for 2012. While we’re used to the “reality star” going too far with looks—bronzer overload, anyone?—we love the not so subtle streaks.

Lauren Conrad is renown for changing up her hair mid-breakup but this week’s pink—she uploaded a pic of her newly dyed hair on Twitter—comes with zero baggage.

X-Factor finalist Amelia Lily picked a pastel shade over neon when picking out a pink. Her look is reminiscent of Katy Perry’s signature shade before the pop star switched over to blue.

The 2012 Academy Awards take place on February 26. The Oscar nominations are here! Martin Scorcese’s three hour long Hugo leads the pack with 11 nominations and The Artist, with 10, is a close second. Brad Pitt won his first producer nomination, for Moneyball (as well as an acting nod) and George Clooney scored his first writing nod, for Ides of March (his acting nomination is for The Descendants). Meryl Streep is nominated for the 17th time; she’ll compete against Michelle Williams, Viola Davis, Rooney Mara and Glenn Close for Best Actress. Bridesmaids scored two Oscar nominations: a Best Supporting Actress nod for Melissa McCarthy and Best Original Screenplay for Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo. As for the men, Demián Bichir (A Better Life), The Artist‘s Jean Dujardin and Gary Oldman, for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (the first nomination for each of them), join Clooney and Pitt in the Best Actor category. And lastly, nine films have been nominated for Best Picture: The Artist, The Descendants, Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close, The Help, Hugo, Midnight in Paris, Moneyball, The Tree of Life, and War Horse. The film most obviously missing from any category is We Need to Talk About Kevin; Tilda Swinton scored a Golden Globe nod and was considered a serious contender for the Oscar, too. The red carpet’s already looking a bit more dull in her absence.

Only Céline, the brand that has, in just two years, had a ripple effect on style across the globe, could get away with canceling its Paris runway show at such a young age and still be the most exciting collection in Europe. LVMH announced today that staging a show next month is out of the question; designer Phoebe Philo is pregnant with her third child. The compnay’s CEO told WWD, “A runway show is a very demanding and personal engagement for a creative director. The objective is to simplify.” Instead, they’ll stage a presentation somewhere in Paris during their time slot (March 4, 1PM). We’re guessing this means a bash in honor of Céline’s new Madison Avenue store, opening within a month, is absolutely out of the question.

In Mango’s case, the photographer’s the constant and the face is ever changing. The Spanish store has tapped Kate Moss for her first big post-marriage campaign. A spokesperson for the brand said they wanted Moss based on the response to the commercial she shot with Terry Richardson for their fall runway show. “Given its success, we decided to use Kate Moss as our brand image,” she told WWD, making them the only brand in need of proof of Moss’ appeal. They also mention Moss’ “turbulent past,” and that Mango’s not worried about her hard partying ways given her “recent” foray into marriage and motherhood. Of course, Moss has been a mom for almost ten years, but there’s really no bad reason for booking the supermodel and hey, Lila Grace would probably love a sibling.

- If there’s one thing we took away from Pitti Uomo, the annual mega menswear trade show in Florence, it’s that Italian boys know how to dress. Usually it’s the girls who are the more fashion-forward ones in relationships, but these guys put the ladies’ outfits to shame, hitting the streets in bold colors, rolled up cuffs, daring prints (camouflage!), and tailored blazers. Most of the designer duds from the show itself won’t hit the shelves for months, but in the meantime, you can learn a thing or two from all of the fashionable male attendees. To help your beau get an equally stylish look, here are some takeaway fashion tips straight from Italy (just in time for Men’s Fashion Week!)
1. Tailored blazers

A tight-fitted blazer can either be worn as a separate or with matching pants (as this sickeningly handsome Italian man did). This double-breasted jacket is a classic piece that will be “in stile” for years. Feel free to coordinate with a colorful scarf.
2. Camouflage

his guy’s not blending in anywhere with this flashy camo print. Skilled in the art of layering, he chose to wear the print over a tweed blazer and underneath a chunky sweater. He tied the look together with a pale blue oxford shirt—an ensemble fit for any adventure.
3. Plaid

Plaid was a hot pattern at Pitti: coats, shirts, ties—you name it. This gentleman wore a crisp green coat with a simple plaid pattern and a contrasting collar. This handsome plaid piece will look great over dress shirts and suits.
4. Bold colors

Look, it’s the Italian Chuck Bass! One great part about Pitti is that the guys weren’t afraid to show some color. A bold-colored pant, blazer, or tie will add some Italian flair to your boyfriend’s look.
5. Layers, layers, layers

When it doubt, layer it up! Layers are great for the cold-weather months—when you get indoors, you can simply shed a piece. This guy shows off his layering skills with a double set of collared shirts worn under a double-breasted cable-knit sweater—a wardrobe staple that will instantly update your look.
6. Pops of color

You have to applaud this dude’s subtle use of color in his outfit: the tie, the hanging scarf, the socks, and the shoes. Deep, rich colors like orange, yellow, and blue will make your man a classy standout on the street.
7. Casual cool

Even though in our dream world all boys would dress in jackets and ties, that’s just not reality. But worry not—your boyfriend can still look trendy in a lightweight T-shirt, slim-fit pants, brogues, and a navy coat.
8. Rolled-up cuffs

Rolled-up cuffs were seen on countless ankles at Pitti, and we’re totally on board with the look. Just make sure your boyfriend cuffs his pants over the ankle, leaving room to show off some skin (or some colorful socks!)
9. Canvas sacks

This colorful canvas sack transforms an everyday item and makes it stylish. Just think how much cooler your boyfriend will look toting this around in the hallways instead of a ratty old North Face.

Photo: Terry Richardson for Jimmy ChooJamie Bochert’s one of the few (if only?) models to so publicly declare her disdain for the fashion industry and yet continue to book major jobs. She’s long been a muse for Marc Jacobs, and appeared in Lanvin’s fall campaign last year, but could her turn for Jimmy Choo mark a more commercial path? Bochert stars with Magdalena Frackowiak in the luxury shoe brand’s spring campaign, photographed by Terry Richardson. The two play rivals, according to WWD, though they don’t appear to be arguing over much more than a handbag. The shoot was inspired by Justine, the 1969 film set in the Mediterranean, though Richardson shot the photos in New York. It’s the first campaign since the resignation of president Tamara Mellon, though the aesthetic still suits her. As for the fight, our money’s on Jamie.

Photo: MTVTonight, ANTM finalist Angelea Preston is guest starring on the season premiere of MTV’s Made. The 25-year-old model and actress will appear as a “Made coach” helping a handful of Earl Warren High School student achieve their dreams of being crowned Homecoming King and Queen. We chatted with Angelea about what she was like in high school, how she deals with harsh winter weather and the even harsher modeling industry, and what beauty product she simply cannot live without. Check it out! ELLE Girl(EG): How did you get involved with Made?Angelea Preston (AP): The agency I was working with set up a casting call. I was a little nervous and I thought I was going for a wingwoman episode, but then I met with the casting director who told me they wanted me for a Homecoming King and Queen episode. I’d never been Homecoming Queen! They asked a lot about my high school experience and I got really excited and just kept thinking, ‘I hope I get this! I hope I get this!’ because I love working with kids and teens. Then they called me about a week later and gave me the part!EG: What was your high school experience like?AP: Very fun! Like I said, I wasn’t Homecoming Queen, I was actually kind of a nerd. I was really concerned about my grades and part of Italian Club and a peer education group, BART. I went to schools and talked to kids my own age about STDs and HIV and AIDS. I wanted to be a cheerleader, but I was nervous and kind of shy. I was very tall and very thin, and I felt like the most awkward person in school, I just felt out of place.EG: In a sneak peek for tonight’s episode, you spoke about not feeling confident in high school but that you eventually regained that confidence. How did you go about doing that?AP: Basically by gaining experience. As a teenager you’re worried about what everyone thinks, you want the nicest clothes and the nicest sneakers, and you worry about who has the nicest car. That’s just what you think about. As you get older, you become more of your own person and you think about the problems from high school and they don’t seem real—you think ‘why was I thinking about that boy, I have college courses to worry about and bills to pay!’EG: What was it like to be figuratively “back in high school” while coaching?AP: It was so much fun! I felt like the new kid at school! It brought me back to being 16 and 17 and going to a new school for the first time and worrying if everyone would like me but I had so much fun. It felt great to be at a school that was so different from mine—they have a lot more freedom. They get to go out to lunch and eat outside and eat at restaurants! Everyone was also really welcoming, the staff at Earl Warren was welcoming and San Antonio was welcoming and the kids were great. I really miss them! We’re friends are on Facebook and I’m going back in March for a festival called Fiesta.EG:You also said in the sneak peek that being “in charge” shouldn’t be the goal of someone running for Homecoming Queen and that conflict resolution and a positive attitude are important. Is that one way you approach life in general?AP: Absolutely. It’s very important to remember that if your peers can’t relate to you, if they can’t think of you as a friend and talk to you, if you play the role of HBIC, they’re going to look at you like you’re crazy. In the industry I’m in, you get told ‘no’ a lot and you have to not let negativity drag you down.EG: On the note of not letting negativity get to you, you didn’t make it into cycle 12 of ANTM, made it to the semi-finals in cycle 14, and were one of the three finalists in cycle 17. What would you say was your key to success?AP: My key was growth. In cycle 12, I was off the wall, I didn’t care and I didn’t even make it past the first episode. After cycle 12 and after I had actually watched myself on TV, I was like “wow, this is crazy.” Of course, there’s editing and a lot of things are cut but for the most part, there was a lot going on, both on and off screen, in my personal life and in my career and it was personal growth for me in life that helped me succeed.EG: You handled your disqualification from ANTM very gracefully. Do you have advice for people who hit major set backs?AP: Keep going, just keep going. I loved my time on America’s Next Top Model, and I’m so grateful to the producers and to Tyra for giving me the chance to showcase my work in that way—and congratulations to Lisa, and I wish her success in all of her endeavors. You just have to keep going; no one can direct your destiny but you. People will tell you can’t do this, you’re too tall, too short, you need to lose fifteen pounds, you need to gain fifteen pounds. Everyone who has succeeded has endured negative criticism, but they’ve got something inside them that says ‘you can do it’ and they take every negative comment with a grain of salt.EG: Modeling is a cut-throat, highly demanding industry. How have you managed not to lose who you are and to stay true to yourself?AP: I always remember where I come from. I’m from Buffalo, NY, and I didn’t grow up rich. I didn’t grow up poor either, but my parents worked so hard to give me everything, and my goal and my motivation has been wanting something better for myself and my family. They also help keep me grounded. I’m living in New York City right now, taking acting classes and getting into acting, and it’s good to go home and see the people who genuinely love you for yourself and your friends who want your friendship for no other reason than genuinely enjoying your company, who knew you before you were on TV. They help me stay grounded and humble, especially my niece, Niesha, I love her so much.EG: You’re from Buffalo so you’re used to intense winters. What are your best tips for surviving winter weather?AP: Oh my God, I am used to the crazy snow. I just layer on a bunch of clothes. I’m in L.A. right now so I don’t have to deal with it but at home I just layer on the clothes: three or four sweaters, a big puffy coat, two pairs of socks. I’ve very thin too so it’s hard to stay warm. I just go completely overboard and bundle up.EG: Do you have a favorite celebrity you follow on Twitter?P: Let’s see…I love to follow 50 cent; I think he’s tweet are so funny. I follow about 500 people, about half are celebrities and half are fans so there’s always a lot on my dash, but I love 50 cent.EG: What about a favorite reality TV show?AP: Oh yeah, I watch tons of reality shows! I love The Real Housewives shows, there was a Real Housewives of Beverly Hills marathon on last night and I watched that, pretty much anything on Bravo. I love VH1 reality shows, love Mob Wives, T.I & Tiny, yeah I love reality T.V.EG: What is one beauty product you cannot live without?AP: Definitely facial cleanser. Because I wear so much makeup on shoots I need a really good cleanser and I have to wash my face everyday. I don’t like to use the same kind all the time because I don’t want my skin to get used to it but I would recommend Neutrogena Acne Wash. Whenever I use it my skin clears up in like a week. Clean and Clear is also a great brand and Noxema has a regular cleansing cream which works well on my skin which is kind of sensitive but also oily.

- Campaign season is the gift that keeps on giving. Not only do we get to experience the best of spring 2012 fashion week all over again, but if we’re going to be totally honest, we’d rather see models at a candy-colored tea party or hovering above the ocean than walking on a runway. In the spirit of spreading the love, we’ve rounded up our favorite spring ad campaigns. Check out our list and leave a comment to let us know if we left anyone out!
Photo: Courtesy of Louis VuittonLouis Vuitton We stopped attending tea parties around the time we stopped talking to our stuffed animals but the candy-coated LV spring campaign made us want to break out our tea sets and send out some hand written invitations.
Photo: Courtesy of PhilipPlein Philip Plein We love a comeback story and we rue the day when a Mean Girls reference doesn’t have a place in every possible conversation. That’s why we love Philip Plein’s spring ads, featuring the good-girl-gone-bad-gone-to-jail Lindsay Lohan.
Photo: Courtesy of Miu MiuMiu Miu Even though they gave Hailee Steinfeld the boot after feeling the heat from critics who didn’t think a 15-year old should be representing a brand most 15-year olds can’t afford, we’re still fans of Miu Miu’s colorful, portrait-esque spring ads featuring Mia Wasikowska.
Photo: Courtesy of ChanelChanel Chanel’s spring ad campaign proves that models do work hard. Saskia de Brauw and Joan Smalls performed gymnastics moves over the ocean for some breathtaking shots. We weren’t the only ones who were impressed. Fashionista posted a behind-the-scenes video, showing how the acrobatic editorial was made.
Photo: Courtesy of VersaceVersace Versace’s spring collection has strong oceanic currents in all the pieces so we were pumped too see the somewhat literal interpretation in their blue-tinted spring ad campaign. The editorial shots featured Giselle Bundchen poolside as well as in the water.
Photo: Courtesy of Hervé LégerHervé Léger In Hervé Léger’s spring campaign, Fatima Siad proves that you don’t need to win America’s Next Top Model to become one of America’s next top models. We’re absolutely loving how fierce the third-place finalist of Cycle 10 looks in the minimalistic, highly stylized ads.
Photo: Courtesy of Oscar de la RentaOscar de la Renta New blogger Karlie Kloss was the only source of color in a black and white world in this mind-bending spring campaign. With a constantly shifting maze of a floor and larger-than-life doorways, we were getting major Alice and Wonderland vibes.
Photo: Courtesy of Roberto CavalliRoberto Cavalli Cavalli featured supermodel legends Naomi Campbell, Karen Elson, and Kristen McMenamy, along with 16-year-old newcomer Daphne Groeneveld in their spring ad campaign. We loved the high level of glam and high level of skill in these posh spreads.

- According to The Wall Street Journal, the newest trend taking over high schools wasn’t plucked off of runways or out of glossy fashion magazines. What’s “cool” right now are…pajamas. Baggy pajama bottoms, fuzzy slippers, or cozy over-sized hoodies to be precise. The pajamas-in-school trend has gotten so big that the overall sales of “activewear” clothing has tripled in the past compared to overall clothing sales, according to a NPD, a market research group. That means flannels and yoga pants are flying off the shelves, leaving jeans and dresses in the dust. Despite the fact that many adults are calling the trend “sloppy” and “lazy,” the look isn’t a fresh out of bed free for all. Footie pajamas, for one, are not welcome. The “loungewear” trend calls for pairing one large, comfy piece of clothing with a tighter, more flattering item. That means roomy flannel pajama bottoms with camisoles or long-sleeve tees, or leggings with a cozy hoodie. Clothing stores like Abercrombie and Fitch and American Eagle have hopped on the pajama train and are featuring sweatpants heavily, both in stores and online. If you fee like putting some effort into this effortless look, you can check out our shopping guide below. No need to stress though: people will probably be unable to tell the difference between the PJs you’ve had since middle school and a new, expensive A&F pair.

Michael Kors fall 2011, ImaxtreeUnless you live on the West Coast, you know about seasons. And when seasons change, so must our skincare regimen. The weather and its elements affect our skin so much that if you reach for the same products all year long, you’re doing your skin a disservice. It’s something we’re trying to be better at, too. We recently chatted with top NYC-based dermatologist Dr. Anne Chapas about the most common winter skincare mistakes we make, and what we can do protect our skin during the most severe inclement weather. And below, check out our favorite go-to products we stock up on when Old Man Winter settles in.ELLEgirl: What are the definite Don’ts of skincare during the cold season every gal must know?Dr. Anne Chapas: Skipping moisturizer. Not wearing sunscreen because it’s not “summer.” Using gels that dry out instead of moisturizing lotions and creams. Using abrasive soaps. Taking long, hot showers.ELLEgirl: Does winter skincare differ from skin type to skin type?Dr. Chapas: Yes and no. Everyone’s skin is drier in the winter. However, if someone is oily to start with, she might be more normal in the winter months, whereas a person with normal skin type may be dry in the winter months.ELLEgirl: What are the top products every girl should be using on her skin?Dr. Chapas: Two things: a mild cleanser and a moisturizer with SPF 30 or higher, anti-oxidants, and Retinol.ELLEgirl: Is there a specific product that we shouldn’t spend our money on? Why?Dr. Chapas: Anything with fancy packaging. Save your money for things that have been scientifically proven to improve the health and appearance of the skin, not something that looks pretty on the shelf.ELLEgirl: Should our AM and PM skincare routines be different? If so, in what ways?Dr. Chapas: In the morning, use a moisturizer with sunscreen. At night, apply retinol/Retin A, since these are inactivated by sunlight.ELLEgirl: If a girl has 10 minutes in the morning to get ready, what skin regimen would you recommend?Dr. Chapas: Use a mild cleanser with an exfoliating brush, and cover up with a tinted moisturizer with sunscreen.ELLEgirl: Does keeping a humidifier in our bedrooms really make a huge difference?Dr. Chapas: Yes! Especially in the winter.ELLEgirl: What’s the best way to prevent and control breakouts during the winter season?Dr. Chapas: Always remove make-up—no exceptions! Use a water-based moisturizer after Retinol at night.ELLEgirl: How do you know for sure that a product’s not working/not best for your skin type? Dr. Chapas: If your skin is dry, red, or irritated, you need to make a change. Top Products for Winter Skincare
