Lena Dunham poses for 'V' Magazine shot by Terry Richardson.

From the explosive debut season of Girls to rocking a Miley Cyrus-inspired pixie cut and landing a mega money book proposal, it's safe to say Lena Dunham had a fabulous 2012, and this new year looks to be no different. On only this second day in January, we've discovered the writer/director/actress's photo shoot with Terry Richardson for the upcoming issue of V Magazine, which hits newsstands January 10 (just THREE days before the Girls Season 2 premiere for those of you who are counting down — and you should be).

Aptly named Time Magazine's coolest person of the year, Dunham takes the director's chair wearing a black Calvin Klein bodysuit and Manolo Blahnik pumps. Although there was a bit of controversy when Dunham appeared at an L.A. event wearing a turquoise top and what appeared to be a blatant lack of pants, we do not object to the leggy abstentia here. Throughout the photos, Dunham rocks the slinky one-piece, accentuating her gams and accessorizing with a cherry red Michael Kors coat and a mouthful of toothpaste.

Almost as early as we've been curating our holiday wish lists, we've been waiting in anticipation for signs of the Neiman Marcus and Target Holiday collaboration, announced wayyyyyyy back in the heat of July. Just to refresh your memory, the collection is designed by 24 CFDA designers. We're talking all the heavy hitters (Marc Jacobs, Proenza Schouler, Jason Wu), who have worked on 50 products, from ornaments to yoga mats to skateboards. The products will finally be available December 1, and to make our wait a little less agonizing we get a sneak peek with a behind the scenes video of the campaign starring Karlie Kloss!

Taylor Swift

After strutting the 2012 American Music Awards red carpet glowing in gold, locks swept back in a smooth chignon, Taylor Swift let her hair down for her onstage performance of "I Knew You Were Trouble." Appearing at the top of a grandiose staircase (we admit we were a little hopeful for some "Love Story" deja vu), the Favorite Female Country Artist looked beautiful in a delicate white dress with a sheer and embroidered bodice. She also kept her beauty game simple and sweet, missing that bold red pout she's been sporting while promoting her newest album, Red. But we know our girl, and as amazing as she looked, we figured she had a trick up her sleeve.

Keri Hilson is the newest musician turned model for Wilhelmina Models.

After hearing the news that Keri Hilson inked a modeling contract with Wilhelmina Models, the very familiar words from her 2010 "Pretty Girl Rock" anthem started running through our heads: "Don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful." We never have and we never will! The R&B singer joins the class of Iggy Azalea, Fergie and Natasha Bedingfield, who are all musicians-turned-models thanks to Wilhelmina. But really, we should have seen this coming a long time ago.

Is it just us, or does Opening Ceremony keeping getting cooler and COOLER? Fresh off of throwing a killer 10 Year Anniversary party featuring a performance by Queen Bee Lil Kim, and showcasing Le1f's custom playlist for the Patrik Ervell Spring 2013 show on their website (including tracks from OMD, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony and Pussy Riot) the cool kids shop spoiled us even more, launching an iPad app in conjunction with their limited-edition magazine, Annual.

Reporting from day five of Fashion Week means empty red bull cans, numb fingers clacking on keyboards and strained eyes from slaving away at our computers (can a girl get some Visine please?), but we're still going strong because we love ourselves some celeb sightings, and trust us, there have been some good ones. Notably we spotted British It Girl Alexa Chung, Abigail Breslin and Teen Wolf star (and host of our 2012 VMA Red Carpet Report last week) Holland Roden, and we're just getting started.

Karen Walker

There's nothing we would love to do more than time travel. We're holding out for the possibility someday (make it happen, technology) but since the day has yet to come when we have the necessary futuristic tools at the ready, we're lucky to have Karen Walker. The designer, known for her effortlessly feminine looks, took us to the fabulous 1950s (and beyond) with her Spring 2013 collection. Walker, who takes us on a different journey each season, managed to put a modern and celestial spin on the pieces while making a nostalgic nod to the past. We're still trying to wrap our brains around the amazingness of it all, and may or may not know what year we're in right now.

Lena Dunham, Miley Cyrus

Okay now it's official. EVERYONE is jumping on the Miley Cyrus haircut train (and why shouldn't they!?). This time, it's our favorite Brooklynite, Lena Dunham. The star/creator of HBO's Girls showed up to Rachel Antonoff's Spring 2013 Fashion Week presentation yesterday having chopped off her hair a mere six hours before! She hinted about the upcoming change just a day earlier, but we never thought it would come so soon. After wrapping up filming for the second season of Girls, Lena tweeted "time to do something self destructive vis a vis my hair!" Not to keep us in suspense, she later posted a pic on Twitter, saying "I Miley'd the s*** out of this Saturday."

There’s nothing like summer camp as a kid (I mean, the LiLo Parent Trap remake? Salute Your Shorts? Pick your poison), so we could hardly hold back our giddiness walking through Rachel Antonoff’s Spring 2013 New York Fashion Week presentation. Amid a winding path of astroturf and hedges, models played badminton, caught pretend butterflies, and lounged with picnic baskets in the designer’s collection of striped seersucker skirts, pleated shorts and breezy blouses. Transluscent oxfords and sandals, patterned visors and white, geometric nails completed the looks, all of which could head straight for the country club.

I love these two as a couple. What a festive way to celebrate two important events in their life. Mariah looks like a dream.
