    For spring, Riccardo Tisci sent out a stream of mini skirts covered in sheer chiffon at Givenchy. The fashion pack immediately caught on and Bill Cunningham devoted an On the Street segment to long skirts at New York Fashion Week, at least 75% of which turned sheer right above the knee. Soon, they popped up everywhere from Opening Ceremony to Topshop, but we never actually saw them out and about (at least not in any context unrelated to the fashion industry). 

    And now that spring sales have hit, we’ve seen them on more sale racks than not.  But last night Blake Lively wore the white Chanel couture dress at left and we’re wondering if she has the power to revive the trend or if her “most influential” status won’t quite do the trick. Is this a look you’ve been wearing in real life? Or does it need couture level construction to work this well?

    We caught up with “the most talented girl in the world” (dubbed by Oprah herself) Charice Pempengco, at the Life Savers Gummies Event in NYC today, where fans voted for their favorite flavor to be added to the classic assortment of colors. Charice is a very bust lady these days: she just released a brand new single and has taken on a big-screen role in the film Here Comes the Boom! out in 2012. The Glee cutie sat down with us in a one-on-one exclusive to talk music, advice, and of course, gummies. (She’s team orange in case you were wondering).

    One of the hottest trends this spring and summer is the wide pants! We love that we are slowly drifting away from the super tight, skinny jeans to a more comfortable style. Finally, we can breathe!

    Wide pants come in both jeans and trousers, which make it so easy to match with the rest of your wardrobe! Don’t forget to choose a pair of high platforms but be sure to let the pants sweep the ground. Only the tip of the toe should be seen!

    We know you’ll love this comfy trend just like we do! Check out how fashionable celebs like Rachel McAdams, Ashley Olsen and Malin Akerman style wide pants!

    Both Diane Kruger and Alessandra Ambrosio were seen wearing this super cute, Dolce and Gabbana dress. Diane went the classic route and wore her dress with a pair of nude heels. She wore her hair back and really let the dress shine! Alessandra chose metallic sanadals and kept her locks, long and straight! We really love this dress and think it looks great on both fashionistas, but the questions is: who wore it best?

    Ever wonder what a designer does all day? Given that it’s summer—and we’re obsessed with Tori Praver‘s high waist swimsuits and sexy string bikinis—we asked the model turned swim designer to lay it all out for us, hour by hour.

    A couple weeks ago, if you had given us a Hawaiian shirt we probably would have said nope, never, no thank you and passed it right along into our to-donate pile. The look has been a fashion no-no for as long as we can remember, seen only on tourists with cameras around their necks and sunscreen-whitened noses, or perhaps more embarrassingly, our Dads. Leave it to our favorite fashion designers to remind us once again to never say never when it comes to style.  

    This year’s resort collections from Stella McCartney, Suno and Marc by Marc Jacobs all feature luau-ready looks in super-funky island prints and, yes, we dig it. If you’re getting ready for a tropical vacay, embrace the locale and deck yourself out in Hawaiian prints. But even if you’ll be spending the season nowhere near the ocean (sad days), you can feel totally beachy with the style. Rifle through your Dad’s closet for an over-sized Hawaiian shirt and try rocking it as a coverup by the pool, or wear it buttoned up with your fave denim short-shorts,  gladiator sandals, a high bun and a pair of Ray-Bans for a perfectly casual daytime look. No luck on your Hawaiian shirt search?

    Here are some more island-inspired picks:

    Dress up. Take pictures. Paint. Explore. Drive. That’s exactly how it’s supposed to be, livin’ young and wild and free (thank you Wiz for that anthem). And most importantly Dream, which is exactly what best friends Kimberely and Emily did. From that dream, blossomed Wildfox Couture, a full-fledged American vintage-inspired women’s knitwear brand. When L.A fashion got too serious for the free spirited teens, Kimberely and Emily created bright baggy tees to remind people that life is about having fun. If you haven’t checked out Wildfox’s apparel then carpe diem—seize the day! Wildfox’s latest collection is based on the 1970s and rock and roll. So tune on, tune in, and drop to the beat of your own heart. After all, it’s still rock n’ roll to us. Based on the girls’ love for all things vintage, the collection pays homage to rock boyfriends, backstage babes, and The Rolling Stones. Filled with flares, platforms and over sized tees, we are more than satisfied.

    It's that time of year! Grab your picnic basket, a blanket, and some yummy sandwiches- we're going on a picnic! One of the reasons we love summer so much is sunny days where you can eat outside! We think picnics are great and some of our favorite celebs think so too!

    We knew that Prince William and Kate Middleton were thinking about heading to Cali on their North America tour, but now we know that it's definitely happening! Kate and Will's California iternary has been released and we just have to say, we're super excited!

    On Friday, July 8, the royal couple will arrive to Cali, they'll have an official visit with the Consular-General on behalf of the UK government.

    Saturday, July 9, Will is playing in a polo match (!!!) for the American Friends of the Foundation of Prince William and Prince Harry. That evening, Will and Kate will head to downtown LA for a BAFTA dinner and reception. On Sunday, July 10, the newlyweds will get some private time but will later visit an inner-city school and job fair for veterans.

    According to a spokesperson from St. James's Place, Will and Kate's goal during the tour is to "promote British interest in California through the prism of their own interest." We think they'll have so much fun in California and we hope they will really take the time to enjoy themselves, it sounds like they will be busy! (people)

    Whew, that name sure is a mouthful, isn’t it? Well, you better get used to letting it roll of your tongue because famed fashion designer Albertus Swanepoel is slated to collaborate with one of our favorite stores, Target, this coming fall. We couldn’t be more thrilled!
