In a stylishly on-point Tumblr page called “What Would Yeezus Wear,” co-creators Katie Burroughs and Kathleen Lee re-imagine “fashionable” moments featuring the highly publicized pair. Launched in September, the joint Instagram account has already racked up 12,000 followers and continues to share snaps of the pals taking turns portraying Mr. and Mrs. West, including their sometimes stoic facial expressions.

“As a couple they are iconic, and even their haters can’t help but be fascinated by them,” Lee tells Us Weekly. “I think that’s why they are so appealing for this project, the people like us who already like them enjoy it, and the haters enjoy it because they see it as mocking them.”

 With Halloween just around the corner, there’s no doubt Burroughs and Lee will be pulling out all the stops — but the friends may have to flip a coin to see who gets to play Kanye.

 “It is always a battle for Kanye,” says Lee. “No offense to Kim, but some of her outfits are hard to pull off without her amazing body.”

Nude lace is one of the key trends in the 2015 bridal collections, a beautiful, feminine, sexy development from the lace and applique detailed look that has been so popular for the last couple of years. The key feature of the style is a nude or blush-colored underlay with a full or part-body overlay, allowing the detail on the lace or applique to really shine through. Some versions of the look are more daring than others, but one thing’s for sure – it’s taking bridal designers by storm. Look at the inspiring dresses below and choose your own one to look stunning on your big day!

How to wear sweater dress styles is all a matter of playing with layers and silhouettes. The sweater dress is a staple in many fall/winter wardrobes and is great for seasonal dressing. However, simply throwing it on over a pair of tights can all get a bit predictable. If you’re after a few ideas for how to wear sweater dresses, check out the next couple of tips for outfit inspiration.

1. Make your sweater dress extra cosy by piling on winter-appropriate layers. Right now you can’t go past a shaggy faux fur vest for a fashionable layering piece. Keep a rock-chic look going by slipping on some opaque tights, edgy ankle boots, and a wide-brimmed felt hat.

2. Double Duty

 Get the most out of your sweater dress by making it do double duty as a long line top. Team it over skinny jeans or loosely tucked into a pair of shorts for a chic, everyday type of outfit. This works especially well with shorter sweater dresses as you don’t constantly have to worry about it riding up and revealing more than you asked for!

Rihanna’s New Viva Glam Ad – Following up the news last year that Rihanna would be the latest Viva Glam spokesperson for MAC, the cosmetics giant revealed the campaign image on its Facebook yesterday. 

The pop super star poses topless for famed fashion duo Inez and Vinoodh. 

One hundred percent of the Viva Glam lipstick sales goes to the MAC AIDS fund to help those affected by the disease. 

The limited edition lip stain will be available this month.

1. Classy/Office/Business Style. Wear an office white dress with heeled pumps in white or black (brights will do, but they look more lunch/dinner than work appropriate), a big black bag & a white blazer or coat on top. Or don a white trouser suit, in a loose cut. The secret to this look is pairing the dress, suit, white skirt and white blouse with either white or black shoes and bags. It’ll look smart, classy & empowering.

2. Feminine/Spring’ish Style. Think beach dresses, summer dresses in cotton, loose, flirty, midi or pleated skirts with white tees; palazzo pants with white tops – all paired with pastel accessories, wedge soles, brown tones, red lips, colored details. Think super girly, feminine posh flirty styles.

3. Casual Style. The easiest of them all. It has to do with ditching the heels for more comfy shoes (flats, sneakers, boots, loafers, sandals, wedges) in white or not. White jeans and a white tee, shirt or blouse. White shorts and a white denim shirt, white cotton dress, white skirt, maxi dress, the sky’s the limit really.

Megan Williams and Karmay Ngaia by Chen Man

Japanese Holiday–Collaborating with photographer Chen Man once again, the holiday 2014 campaign from Guess heads to Japan for an Eastern inspired shoot.

On his first audition for ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ with creator Shonda Rhimes: “At first I thought [Shonda] hated me, but she was calculating in her head where to put me and what I’d be right for…they liked me, but they wanted me to do a chemistry read with [lead actress Ellen Pompeo]. I had an immediate connection with her because she has a Boston accent, and I’m from Maine, so that disarmed me.”

On his love of racing and his wife Jillian sharing his passion: “I think she kind of wishes she hadn’t allowed me to start racing because it’s become a full-time business and occupation outside of, and on top of, everything else I’m doing. She got the new Porsche 911 Targa as an anniversary present and now says, ‘I completely understand why you love cars and the rush of it!’ If you’re in a performance car there’s definitely a sensation that you get that is indescribable.”

Dior is launching the new makeup collection for Holiday 2014, entitled Golden Shock. Here's what the collection includes:

From the inception of the House of Dior, gold has been a signature color of the brand. From Mr. Dior’s first creations, which incorporated highlights of rich gold as luxurious accents, to the modern-yet-timeless looks of Raf Simons, which feature metallic gold elements to balance audacious shades of red, pink, blue and yellow, gold remains a constant theme. Now, the Dior Golden Shock Holiday Color Collection draws inspiration from Dior’s past and present by incorporating pops of color with dazzling gold accents.

The face of the collection is model Sasha Luss. Availability: mid-October 2014.

After all dressing and home decoration is done, ladies must be more concerned towards face makeup, hairstyles and specially nail manicures. Spooky Halloween Nail Art such as Bloody Splatter, Eyeball, Frankenstein, Doctor Who, Haunted House, Pumpkins nail designs or whatever is worse looks better on this festive night.

Joan Alexandra Molinsky (June 8, 1933 – September 4, 2014), known as Joan Rivers, was an American actress, comedian, writer, producer, and television host noted for her often controversial comedic persona — where she was alternately self-deprecating or sharply acerbic, especially toward celebrities and politicians.

Rivers came to prominence in 1965 as a guest on The Tonight Show. Hosted by her mentor, Johnny Carson, the show established Rivers' comedic style. In 1986, with her own rival program, The Late Show with Joan Rivers, Rivers became the first woman to host a late night network television talk show. She subsequently hosted The Joan Rivers Show (1989-1993), winning a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Talk Show Host.

On his love for the outdoors: "I will always be most comfortable in the outdoors. I grew up in the Ozarks—something resembling Mark Twain country. The woods, rivers, bluffs, lakes, and caves have all left an indelible mark on me. And I'm quite reverential when it comes to a tree. On my forearm, I had tattooed '94.9m (311.4ft)'—the height of the largest sequoia."

On his passion for bikes and motorcycles: "I first rode at age 7 on my cousin's Honda Mini Trail 50. I tried to jump it and ran it into my grandmother's car. He was severely pissed off. My first bike was a Kawi 150 enduro. I won it at age 12 in a contest for selling the most pecan log rolls door to door after school. I crashed it four weeks later."

“I try to carve out time for a solo ride in every country I travel to, from the Highlands of Scotland to the Atlas Mountains of Morocco to the belly of India. I haven’t even come close to fulfilling my list—yet. . . . But, in the traffic of L.A. with a helmet on, I’m just another asshole on the road.”

Kristen Stewart gets locked up in Chanel for the cover of Elle magazine’s September 2014 fashion issue, on newsstands nationwide August 19.

On her growing career: “Never at any point have I sat down and plotted how I should proceed from here on. As soon as you start thinking about your career as a trajectory—like, as if you’re going to miss out on some wave or momentum—then you’re never doing anything for yourself anyway. Then you’re truly, actually, specifically working for the public. You’re turning yourself into a bag of chips.”

In little more than a year, Lupita Nyong’o has made the leap from serious student to Oscar-winning actress and head-turning fashion star. Hamish Bowles catches up with Hollywood’s newest golden girl.

Marrakech in May is unseasonably tagine-hot. Hapless tourists are being felled by sunstroke merely from sauntering across the city’s pulsing medina square, which is all but abandoned by the native food and trinket traders, snake-charmers, and storytellers who will throng it in the desert cool of evening.

But in the oasis sanctuary of the Ksar Char-Bagh, all is balmy dolce far niente. A luxe spa hostelry built in imitation of a castle-like fort in the middle of the Palmeraie, it has crenellated towers that hide a private dipping pool and afford views down to a central marbled courtyard modeled on Granada’s Moorish Alhambra, and across the palm groves to the distant Atlas Mountains. Guests are lounging poolside in the shade of an allée of date palms, seemingly oblivious of the Academy Award–winning deity in their midst, who is the focus of the Vogue cover shoot in full fluster around them.

After completing fashion design studies in Rome, followed by years working as a designer in Barcelona, Scottish born Ann McCreath took a three-month break doing aid work in Kenya. Finding it fascinating, she stayed on for 3 years, before deciding to go back to her profession and do trade instead of aid.

So in 1996 With a desire to help create jobs in rural areas and make unique, high quality products for retail Ann launched her own fashion house under the name “KikoRomeo”, which means “Adam’s apple” in Kiswahili.. Hoping Kenyans would take pride in African-inspired contemporary fashion, and promote their economy through buying locally made fashion, she set about making ethically sound products with inputs from community artisans and women’s groups, which she retailed through her own shop. Since then KikoRomeo has continued to offer ready-made garments, cut to international fashion trends, using African made fabrics, often with handcrafted details.
