• A "well-dressed thief" swiped two Tiffany’s necklaces worth nearly $100K from the Fifth Avenue flagship last week. He just lifted them from the counter, making the sting both the most boring and fascinating jewel heist ever. {Fashionista}

• Diamond experts have developed several tests to help you determine if your rock is fake. SUHWEET! Wait, let me get a rock first. {Racked}

VFiles announced a Bling Ring capsule collection by releasing a surveillance tape of the brand's SoHo store being robbed. Well, fake-robbed. So don't get any ideas. They probably want you to buy the clothes. {Refinery 29}

• If you haven't heard New Zealand singer/songwriter Lorde’s earthwormy tune “Royals” yet, listen to it NOW because it brings a whole new meaning to "diamonds on your timepiece." {Vimeo}

Dur, collide. This week, the links are all about unbeatable combinations. So much goodness, all in one place!

Because we all have to cut corners every now and then...

• Earlier this week, Harry Styles celebrated the Norwegian russefeiring graduation tradition by sporting a blindfold over his baby blues... except that he skipped the actual graduating part. {E! Online}

Google Glass is the wearable computer of the future, y'all! But for those of us who don't have $1,500 in pocket change, here’s what the experience actualllly looks like. {Mashable}

Just when we think we have 'em figured out, they go and pull a fast one on us.

Selena Gomez for adidas NEO

Well, our karmic meters must be off the charts because we’re not sure what we did to deserve this much Selena Gomez + adidas NEO goodness. Mere days after we peeped the fresh, sporty looks for Sel’s NEO spring campaign, the label launched its brand new beachy-keen (LOL had to) summer collection! Over the past couple of months, we’ve been closely following Selena’s brand ambassadorship for NEO, a project that has her pulling double duty as both face and guest-designer for the teen-styled line. And now that Selena's punctually dropped a first look at the summer collection (in the midst of her other little career as an international pop star, mind you), we are straight REVVED for the dog days. In the lookbook, Selena sports sunspired staples including swim wear, accessories, airy knits, and may even a flamingo or two. Check out more looks after the jump!

A few things you might have missed this week, but you'll be glad we didn't!

Grimes took to Tumblr to defend the merits of pop music and fashion, and thusly scored 10 points in the game of life. {Grimes' Tumblr}

Zac Efron caused a stir when he wore a candy-striped bathrobe, but the REAL star of the outfit: the adidas sandals on his feet. O_O {Just Jared}

• Apppparently, there are some up-and-coming sites tryna be the next Nasty Gal. Hm, the more the merrier? Or, can't touch this? {Fashionista}

Whether you're all cartoon hearts or ridin' solo, this week the links are all about LURVE.

• According to Selena Gomez, BFF Taylor Swift throws “Lonely Girls Club” parties for all her single friends where they eat junk food and play with Meredith, and it maybe looks like this. {Perez Hilton}

Perhaps by now you've realized that we, the loyal attendants of the MTV Style brain trust, prepare for prom like most prepare for Christmas. Over the past few weeks, we've made it our goal to present you with a carefully curated guide to this one night, THE ultimate high school soiree. However, we feel there are certain parameters we need to discuss. Movies set ridic standards for prom by packing drama, hi-jinx, and MAJOR sartorial showmanship, but there is one aspect of fictional proms that seems slightly overlooked: the entertainment. Have you ever noticed how certain movies feature a prom band that is just a little too famous to be believable? I mean, not to dock the history teacher who moonlighted as a DJ at MY prom, but let's face it, most prom committees just don't have these kind of connections. Let's break it down.

USHER - SHE'S ALL THAT

She’s All That is an insta-classic for several reasons, one of them being the legendary non-sequitur dance scene that takes place at the prom. Usher just so happens to be the "Campus DJ" [Ed Note: a campus which includes LIL KIM amongst its student body, BTW] who, pristinely outfitted in a tux and bowler hat, leads the entire senior class in an impeccably choreographed dance to Fatboy Slim’s iconic big-beat jam, “The Rockafeller Skank." Because we all know that practicing dance routines is exactly what high school students do in their free time. The dance number has ZERO plot-thickening merits, but there is something very satisfying about watching the same R&B superstar who sings “Nice & Slow” preside over a Bob Fosse-inspired skank routine.

This week the links are all about sneak peeks, inside looks, and living vicariously.

CFDA and Tumblr just launched a series where top fashion bloggers get to visit the not-so-humble digs of famed designers. Internet and a little inspiration, man! 'Sall you need! {Fashionista}

• Even if your festival-ready wares won't make it to Indio this weekend, you can livestream Coachella fo' free thanks to the event's official channel on the Tube of You. {Refinery 29}

• Whether or not bright prints and prep-school togs fit your style, Lilly Pulitzer's passing is an important moment in fashion. These old-school photos prove she was the living embodiment of her brand. {The Cut}

• And in news of vastly-unnecessary-but-remarkably-impressive architectural feats, one NYC penthouse boasts an 80-foot serpentine SLIDE coursing through its living room. {Jezebel}
