Well, looks like Katy Perry's not the only one pumped up for the new Smurfs 2 movie this summer! Rita Ora's feeling blue, too— but rather than dressing in head-to-toe cerulean like our girl KP, Rita took cues from Katy circa 2012 and dyed her HAIR. Fresh off her gorgeous Met Ball appearance earlier this month, where she rocked a custom Thakoon gown, the pop star showed off her new blue 'do on Instagram earlier today. She blasted out two photos of the bold look this morning, saying "Today it's smurf day #rehearsals #album2 #bluehairday". Wait, so in addition to a brand new haircolor, Rita's ALSO prepping her new album?! We.Cant.Wait.

Caroline Hjelt And Aino Jawo Of Icona Pop Are Rising Style Stars

Posted 5/20/13 1:00 pm EST by Liza Darwin in Ladies

World, meet the ladies responsible for one of THE biggest bangers of the entire summer. Yes, we're talking about Icona Pop, otherwise known as the Swedish music duo who've planted themselves firmly in the middle of the dance floor with their so-catchy-it-hurts single "I Love It" (which you might also recognize as the theme song of Snooki and JWOWW!).

Comprised of Caroline Hjelt and Aino Jawo, the pair's been churning out electro-pop tracks since 2009, and thanks to an upcoming U.S. tour, *that* certified platinum single, and a jawdropping performance at this weekend's Billboard Music Awards, they've officially made the jump stateside. But because we're all about the fashion in these parts, it's long overdue that we also call these '90s babes out for their impressive personal styles. Somehow managing to complement each other without becoming overly matchy-matchy, (hey, not everybody wants to be One Direction!), they continue to kill it time and again.

Taylor Swift Glitters In A Zuhair Murad Minidress At Billboard Music Awards

Taylor Swift has always been one of the most consistent style stars on the red carpet, taking an "if it ain't broke, why fix it?" approach to event dressing. There's nothing wrong with that, but that just means it's an even huger deal than usual when the singer strays away from her go-to look. And at tonight's Billboard Music Awards, Taylor decided to go against both her trademark color palette (red, white, silver, gold) AND her signature silhouettes (long gown, princess frock), showing off a side we rarely get to see. Perhaps coordinating with the blue carpet, Tay sported a sparkly blue minidress by Zuhair Murad with sheer panels at the top. Paired with stappy black heels and working major leg, is this Taylor putting her own spin on the Las Vegas locale?! We're betting yes.

The 2013 Billboard Music Awards are off and running, and who better to kick off the night than Miss Miley Ray Cyrus? Even before the singer hit the red— er, blue— carpet in Las Vegas tonight, she tweeted out this photo working the camera in a black and white crochet Balmain jumpsuit. Now, we're already well aware of how much this star LOVES both formal and informal onesies, but haven't seen her in a knitted version of the comfy staple...well, until now. Fresh off the French label's Spring 2013 runway, this intricately-woven piece comes covered in diamonds and teeny tiny cutouts. The result is simultaneously boundary-pushing, effortlessly chic, and 100% Miley.

The countdown to The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is ON, you guys! You already know how we've been keeping close tabs on all the amazing fashion stuff surrounding book number two in the trilogy, from dishing on the character poster outfits to discovering the mastermind behind Katniss's epic wedding dress. But now, here's some seriously exciting beauty news for you: COVERGIRL has inked a deal with the film, marking the makeup giant's very first movie partnership ever! Huge, right? This means we'll be seeing a print and TV ad campaign inspired by the fantasy flick, as well as an entire line of Capitol Collection beauty products. It all makes total sense, considering Hunger Games on-set makeup artists used the brand's products on Jennifer Lawrence and the rest of the cast to create what COVERGIRL calls "luxurious, high couture looks."

She might currently be busy ruling the Cannes red carpet and doing airport fashion better than anyone in LWDs, but thanks to W magazine, even those of us NOT at the swanky international film festival can still get our Emma Watson fix. Well, on the newsstand, anyway, since The Bling Ring star is the publication's June cover girl! The actress is looking quite the leading lady in a charcoal gray Louis Vuitton jacket and a gorgeous, flushed beauty look (holy cheekbones!). Peer a little closer, though, and you'll see she's also working teeny peekaboo shorts, fishnet tights, and some major diamond and gold bling. Chic but not stuffy and grown-up yet still fresh, the sophisticated spread is the perfect introduction to Emma's next chapter. And judging from the images below, it's going to be AWESOME.

Eve Talks Split Style Personalities In Exclusive Interview [VIDEO]

Posted 5/16/13 3:59 pm EST by Liza Darwin in Interviews, Ladies, Video

Eve Talks Personal Style

Whether you're going off of award wins (Grammys, VMAs, BET, check!), albums sold (8 million-plus since 1999, NBD) or even her indisputable fashion cred, there's no denying it: Eve is one seriously intimidating lady. While her insane list of accomplishments is enough to out-cool approximately 99% of the population, the superstar is actually way more relatable than her Wikipedia page would lead you to believe. We learned this recently when the Ruff Ryder's First Lady stopped by MTV to talk about her new album and how her style has changed since those "Gangsta Lovin'" days.

Grimes And Angel Haze Rock Versus Versace Launch Party In Bold Prints

When Donatella Versace decides to throw a party, this is a lady who definitely doesn't do things halfway—she goes big, and last night's New York City bash was no exception. Held in celebration of the Italian label's Versus Versace collection and new capsule line with Brit design hotshot JW Anderson, the fête was cool enough to give pretty much anyone a massive case of FOMO. There were parading models in lots of leather and even some dudes in crop tops, but you know what's even more eye-popping than THAT? Grimes and Angel Haze in their amazing performance outfits, obviously. Donatella's a lady who definitely loves her musicians (hi, Lady Gaga!), so it's no surprise that she has her ear tuned into the latest crop of superstars. Grimes cranked up the glamour in a glittery granite-hued skirt and a top adorned with Versace's trademark lion logo, but kept things grounded—literally—with black combat boots. Then there's Angel, who proved that she really does run New York dressed in an oversized button-up splashed with blingy gold prints. The two artists' performance outfits may have been on opposite ends of the fashion spectrum, but they DID have one thing in common: each girl showed off Versace's signature medallion necklace with her look.

Miley Cyrus Proves The 'Turband' Is Spring's It Accessory

Yep, that's Miley Cyrus in a leopard turban by Cult Gaia.

Anyone who's been following Miley Cyrus gets it. This is a girl who ALWAYS has her foot firmly planted at least six steps ahead of the pack, trend-wise. Remember her Beetlejuice stripes obsession in pants, dress, and jumpsuit form?! It was only a matter of time before everyone else followed suit. Or what about how committed she was to the Met Gala's punk theme in fishnet Marc Jacobs? And we can't ever forget the fact Miley got a head start on fellow stars like Rihanna and Lena Dunhum with her jawdropping pixie cut almost a year ago. While Miley has flaunted about every incarnation imaginable of the short style since then— slicked, side-parted, ski jump, straight up— now she's incorporated accessories into the mix. The singer tweeted an image of herself posing in the studio yesterday decked out in a lime green blouse, "Doll" nameplate necklace, white shades, and a leopard turband (yep, that's the official name). With a knot in front and a skinny, stretchy fabric, this turban-headband hybrid just miiiight be our new hair secret weapon. You can nab Miley's animal print version for $60 at Cult Gaia, but we've rounded up even more options below!

Whew, anyone else feeling tired?! It's only Wednesday, and it's already been a whirlwind week in Rihanna-land, between her "#CCcertified" Kaiser tee, her new River Island sneak peek video and then, less than 24 hours ago, the campaign itself. Not to mention, those photos that surfaced yesterday of the singer rocking a platinum bob! Although the 'do later turned out to be a wig, that's not the only hair change RiRi has up her sleeve these days. Last night, she sent L.A. paparazzi into a frenzy with her brand new long, glossy, blonde weave. With a reverse ombré hue and Barbie-worthy waves, let's just cut to the chase and say we're officially obsessed.
