The big bang

I got banged by my hairstylist.

After seven months of on-and-off dating, I needed a fresh style, a new sendoff to commemorate my new singlehood.

So I visited my hairstylist and asked for red highlights and a haircut. Even better, my seven-month fling had hated when I swept my bangs across my face, so I got bangs. Very short ones.

And what do you know? Boys are liking my short ‘do and are jumping up and down rejoicing my availability to date again. My phone’s ringing off the hook, and I’m back in the game with my single-girl swagger. The universe, at least according to science textbooks, started with a big bang — it only makes sense that I do the same to start off my hot summer.

Heidi Klum Isn’t Cheap, and Neither Is Her Perfume

Filed under:

Heidi Klum put a lot into her fragrances -- she told the Daily Star, "My perfumes carry my name to show I am fully behind them. I created them from A to Z. The scents carry my handwriting."

So, it's no wonder she didn't take kindly to a German-based internet vendor selling those scents at a serious discount on eBay.

AHN reports that she's suing the vendor for £100,000 in compensation, claiming the it is cheapening her brand. The vendor, predictably, is fighting the allegations and is expected to appear in court on July 14.

‘Fat-shionistas’ Have Finally Had Enough

Plus-size fashion is getting quite a bit of press this week. It all started with a New York Times article last weekend that chronicled the recent growth of the plus-size fashion market.

That threw the "fat-shionistas" (their term, not ours) blogosphere into a tailspin.

While the NYT piece did introduce us to plus-size musician Beth Ditto's triumph over the fashion industry -- she has designed a line for Topshop -- it didn't do much for the genre as a whole, or so the women thought.

In what we're assuming was a response to the NYT, TheDailyBeast posted an article yesterday, offering more insight from the women who love their bodies and their fashion.

Michael Jackson’s Style – Fans Pay Tribute, While Vendors Cash In

Filed under:

Michael Jackson was known for his individual sense of style and trend-setting fashion choices, so it's only fitting that fans are mourning the King of Pop with their own interpretations of his iconic look.

Wearing crystal gloves, sequined blazers, high-water pants and Jheri-curl hair, people from all over the world are paying their personal tributes.

Five-year-old Victor Chupina looked like Jackson's mini-me, wearing a sparkly blazer, black fedora and shiny silver glove, as he stood outside of UCLA's Medical Plaza in Los Angeles Thursday.

Hundreds of miles away in Mexico City, another adoring fan -- also dressed like Jackson -- held a candle with her head bowed.

Meanwhile, all across the country, MJ lovers are forking over cash to street vendors in exchange for T-shirts, pins and hats embossed with the late singer's image. While eBay auctioneers are profiting with vintage tees going for as much as $2,000.

Michael Jackson was playing on high rotation Thursday night at the celebrity opening of SoHo's new Swarovski "Crystallized" store, which took place (every party planner's nightmare!) just hours after the King of Pop's shocking death.

However the "pop" of champagne did wonders to soothe the crowd, at the party hosted by "Gossip Girl's" Blake Lively and attended by Evan Rachel Wood, Chloe Sevigny and Lucy Liu.

The 5,000-foot new concept store at 499 Broadway seems like an amazing corporate extravagance in this battered economy. A glittering, two-story tall chandelier hangs in the stairwell of the serene, crystal-and-white interior which evokes a better, future era -- as if we'd all been transported in a Bedazzled Austrian time machine to the end of the recession.

The entire Obama family was out at the United We Serve event at Fort McNair in Washington DC yesterday morning (June 25).

Barack looked on in admiration as Michelle Obama -- wearing a Lanvin blouse (that she previously wore in the White House garden), yellow cardigan, teal capris and Puma sneakers -- opened up the do-good event by speaking to those gathered to participate in the cause.

Malia and Sasha were there, too -- Sasha in a nearly identical outfit to mom's! She wore a printed yellow tee and teal capris with sneakers.

The color-coordinated mother-daugther duo, along with Malia and President Obama helped fill the 15,000 backpacks with books, snacks and toys for children of military servicemen and women. It doesn't get any better than stylish, personal service for those in need.
