Would You Wear Hair Spikes?

As a species, we put a lot of weird stuff in our hair. Sprays and oils and chemicals. Braiding in ribbons and gluing in more hair. Also, remember butterfly clips? Let's all just take a gender-wide facepalm on that one, agreed? And while we're at it, these "spike stud swirls" from Topshop? They might warrant a little self-reflection, too. Color me judgmental or, you know, whatever you want given the anonymity of the interwebz, but I'm just not seeing it. Yet! I'm very thinly spined (near amphibious, really!) and can definitely be swayed. Perhaps a customer review? Or a photo? Or an at-home tutorial? I'm open to suggestions, but I'm also compelled to stand on my soapbox and broadcast that this hair accessory + me is not a love-at-first-sight kinda deal.

Whew, it looks like another Jersey Shore girl is about to get hitched! Following Snooki's engagement earlier this year (and the stylish arrival of her baby boy!), her fellow castmate/BFF JWOWW is also joining the bride-to-be clan by announcing exclusively to In Touch that she's marrying her boyfriend of two years, Roger Mathews. All together now: Awwww! While we're SUPER happy for the Shore girl, we need to cut to the chase—what does the ring look like?! From what we can see, um, that's one GIANT rock. JWOWW told In Touch, "Roger's not an average-looking guy, he's huge: his personality, his size [6'4"]. So I always said, 'I want my ring like you—big! The bigger the better!'" Well, boy certainly delivered. *claps*

Would You Wear A Cheeseburger Backpack?

Would you wear Eastpak's Hungry Henry cheeseburger backpack?

Backpacks are BIG right now. Not, like, physically, but as a trend. We're not sure if it's just because of back-to-school season or if maybe The Row's pricey alligator one was the sparkplug for a larger movement, but whatever the reason, the scholastic carry-all is a big deal this season and one we're certainly not fighting with. What's up for discussion here today is the cheeseburger photo print rocking all over this Eastpak. We want to know what you think: is it a yay or is it a nay?

Rita Ora, Kreayshawn, And Porcelain Black Prove Phrase Beanies Are A Thing

Word up! On the heels of Rihanna's "Boy" snapback hat comes the next big thing in headwear—beanies with phrases on them. And, listen, we're not talking about hats with brand names plastered on the front, we're talking about expressing whatever sentiment you feel on your forehead for ALL to see. Rita Ora, Kreayshawn and Porcelain Black have been behind this trend of late, and we're LOVING it. Just over the weekend, Rita sported a black and pink cap while performing at the Made in America festival that had the phrase "I'm a Village Bicycle" embroidered on the front. We're guessing this is a vintage find because our Google searches come up empty , but we like how it adds a touch of kookiness to her ensemble. She paired it with a fringe leopard top, bright red lips and stacked plastic bead bracelets. Funnnn!

BUCKS. Zut alors!

We love Emma Roberts. We love Nanette Lepore. So what happens when two of our favorite people combine? Just take a look at the sketch of these amazing sunglasses above, and you'll see that it's a total match made in creative heaven (seriously, Cupid would be jealous he didn't think of it first!). Yep, Nanette Lepore- known and beloved for flirty, girly dresses- has just crafted her first style of sunglasses inspired by none other than Emma herself. The pair of cat-eye frames is the latest addition to the VOGUE Eyewear Designer Series, and is inspired by retro Twenties glamour with a modern twist. As Nanette tells WWD of her 21-year-old actress muse, “She’s chic, youthful and confident in her style." Considering Emma's ability to switch from rocker to Old Hollywood to uber-trendy at the drop of a hat, who's going to argue with that?

Is Katy Perry Taking Style Cues From John Mayer?

Could Katy Perry's new style be inspired by John Mayer?

Katy Perry and John Mayer have been making headlines lately as one of the music community's biggest maybe couples of the moment. Neither Katy nor John have commented (yet?) on the notable spike in time spent together, but ever since they were photographed together leaving L.A.'s Chateau Marmont, the prospect of "JohnKat" has definitely been raising eyebrows for the past month. Now, it seems Perry and Mayer are sharing more than just time and memories - they're sharing style sensibilities, too!

The rightful ownership/mothership of Fozzi, the adorable fluffy pup all over Lady Gaga's Twitter feed, may be up for debate amongst her Little Monsters, but we have to give a rousing golf clap for this exemplary matching game. Forget a boy band, Gaga and Fozzi are giving the world's color-coordinated guy groups a run for their money in their matching Louis Vuitton x Yayoi Kusama yellow-and-black polka-dotted collars.

Demi Lovato Or Rihanna: Who Wore A Pink Polka-Dot Bandana Best?

Listen, y'all. We love Demi Lovato, and we love Rihanna. We know Demi loves Ri, else she wouldn't wear the "We Found Love" singer's face across her tank top, and we can only assume the feelings are mutual for Miss Robyn Fenty. The two are beautiful, fashion-forward ladies, each in her own right. Each girl sits at the forefront of fashion and beauty trends. It was only a matter of time before their style games were bound to collide and that they have in all their bandana-rama glory. To reiterate, we have nothing but the deepest, most fervent love for these girls coursing through our veins, but we just have to do this: which one wore a pink polka-dot bandana best?
