We can't say we were surprised when we heard that Nicki Minaj and Adam Levine would be launching their own clothing and accessories lines at Kmart and Shop Your Way in 2013. The two musicians-turned-reality-show-judges will "design and develop their collections with Kmart to reflect their strong creative talents, expressive personalities, and distinctive individual styles," according to the press release. I mean, Nicki has been very openly shopping around her potential clothing line since last August, and even back then said, "My biggest goal was to make a line that was going to be affordable to my fans and also rich enough in quality that they'll feel like they're wearing exactly what I'm wearing." And for Adam, well, remember he launched a clothing collection (called 222) back in 2010, and since then has been flirting in and out of fashion world by performing at the Victoria's Secret runway show and releasing his first-ever fragrance? Yep, we've been keeping our eyes on y'all!

Pardon us while we freak out for a second: Aslkdjasdsakd. OK, whew, sorry we just had to get that out of our system after finding out that Kanye West's very own, personally-worn-by-his-size-10.5-feet Air Yeezy 2 sneakers will be put up for auction starting January 24. In case you forgot, the madness surrounding the release of this Nike x Kanye West collab was absolutely BONKERS (see: people got robbed while waiting in line/paid more than $80,000 for a pair on eBay), so, basically, even if you could get your hands on these bad boys, we highly suggest storing them in a very, VERY secure place a.k.a not on your feet. (Sorry!) The sneakers are part of RE/CREATE New York's Hurricane Sandy auction, which will donate all the proceeds to New York Cares for the ongoing rebuilding and relief efforts. They have tons of "personal, one-of-a-kind items donated by prominent members of their creative community," which include everyone from Selena Gomez to Marc Jacobs to Emma Roberts.

We're very (very!) openly obsessed with UK-based singer Charli XCX—not only because of her dark (and catchy!) synth-pop anthems, but because her Spice Girls-meets-Wednesday Addams style is to die for. Just when we thought her look was WAY too cool to end up in our little ol' closets, Topshop blew our minds with a totally Charli-inspired photo shoot decked out in all their clothes. Meaning, yes, WE CAN ACTUALLY BUY THE GLORIOUS OUTFITS YOU SEE ABOVE. *cries*

We love Wildfox Couture (duh). We love Clueless (even bigger duh). So when we heard firsthand a few months ago that the L.A. label, beloved by Beyonce and Katy alike, is taking cues from Amy Heckling's iconic '95 flick for its newest collection, we had a really, really tough time keeping this a secret. Luckily the cat's out of the bag, since the Wildfox girls have just unveiled the "Kids In America" Spring 2013 lookbook! And spoiler alert- it's cute. With Cher, Dionne, and yes, even Tai as muses, how could it not be? Seriously, just LOOK at the spot on re-enactment above. The '90s are back, people! But instead of Alaia, this time around it's all about Wildfox.

Now You Can Buy Rita Ora's Custom 'ASOS' Cover Jacket Online!

Posted 1/3/13 10:55 am EST by Liza Darwin in 'It' Girls, Covers, Shopping

When Rita Ora covered ASOS magazine way back in September, we obsessed over the singer's amazing studded denim jacket— and mourned the fact that we couldn't score her custom topper for ourselves. Clearly we weren't the only ones bummed out, because thanks to ALL of the requests to buy the one-of-a-kind number, ASOS has officially added it to its stock! And while the statement piece is definitely not cheap at $351, just think of it as an all-inclusive deal to alleviate some buyer's guilt (trust us, it'll make you feel better!). After all, the bomber is a complete mishmash of materials, patterns, and colors. With silver and gold spikes, jeweled details, and a satin paneled artsy print, it's basically every item in our closet crammed into one signature item. How's THAT for more bang for your buck?!

Would You Wear Melting Tights?

Would you wear melting tights?

Whether you're confused, disgusted, or whipping out your credit card at first sight of these melting tights, all reactions to this one-of-a-kind drippy legwear are right. Mostly because you're probably battling them ALL simultaneously. We know we are. The head-turning hosiery comes into existence thanks to Germany's URB (which, aside from the tights in question, is also responsible for some pretty stellar fashion-forward menswear if you're interested). Mysterious dripping and/or melting on any body part is guaranteed to raise eyebrows and not always for the best reasons (Christina Aguilera can tell you first-hand ), so it's hard to rationalize why someone would want this. And yet...we sort of do? *ducks for cover, deploys hairspray cloud forcefield*

First Beyonce, now Miley?! We said it once and we'll say it again: faux fashion tops are definitely having a moment. And don't think it's stopping in 2012, either...months after this clever repurposing of fashion brands first crossed our radar, the trend is still going strong. Just take Miley Cyrus, who rang in the holiday season with her family and pets, decked out in a sweatshirt that paid homage to both designer fashion AND furry friends. We all know that the pop star and actress is a total animal lover, so we can't really think of a better model for the Brian Lichtenberg "Feline Meow" sweatshirt, can you? Brilliant!

12 New Year's Eve Ready Coats And Jackets: Look Cool And Stay Warm In 2013

Posted 12/27/12 12:00 pm EST by Gaby Wilson in Shopping, Trends

Whether you'll be sipping fizzy drinks under city lights, setting off sparklers at a beachside bonfire, or huddling up with a cozy group of friends in the great indoors, your New Year's Eve is likely to be a little chilly (to say the very least). Relatively speaking, if you're out, staying up past midnight in December (going on January), the temperature outside is just going to be colder than it is during your normal hours of operation — this is true no matter what coast, timezone, or line of latitude you'll occupy this New Year's Eve.

Nothing against the tried and true anorak or puffer coat you've been working all winter thus far, but this is a special night. Thus, you'll need a stylish coat or jacket to ring in 2013 looking cool and staying warm. Since the big night is right around the corner (and retailers are ALREADY starting to stock their shelves with spring collections *sound of price guns attaching winter clearance tags*), we've rounded up a few of our favorite outerwear options available right now. From luxurious faux furs and mod monochromatics to '90s-channeling downtown toppers and comfy coats fit for the Oregon Trail, there's something for almost every personal steez. Happy shopping!

FAUX FUR, REAL LUXE

A big furry coat is a great way to make a statement with outerwear — just ask Macklemore — which makes it kind of the perfect New Year's Eve jacket. Better yet, finding fashionable faux furs is easier than ever whether your taste is classic like this MINKPINK "Cruella Faux Fur Coat" from Urban Outfitters ($190.00), über-trendy like this "Ombre Faux Mongolian Fur Coat" from Topshop ($178.00), or funky like this "Longline Animal Fur Coat" with a cheetah print from ASOS ($140.72).

OMG! New Year's Eve is just around the corner, and you need to swipe up a hot new dress to ring in 2013 ASAP. Well friends, we've got you covered (literally). Whether you're going to a chill house get-together or over-the-top warehouse party, we have a bajallion stellar last-minute options that'll be sure to stun no matter what the occasion.

NO SLEEVES

First up: we have a set a frocks for the ladies willing to show a little bit of skin. Me-ow! For the ultimate girly-girl, we're OB-SESSED with this totally glam ASOS pale pink embellished layered tulle dress ($90). It fits super snug at the waist, and then flares out for an oh-so-feminine silhouette. The surprise is the back of the dress, though, which is totally open! If you want to go ALL OUT this NYE, we recommend the ombre teal-to-copper Topshop metallic dress with cut-outs on the front and back of the frock ($360). All eyes will be on you! Another dress we love oh-so-much is this jewel-encrusted ASOS shift ($80). The super simple black dress is covered in multicolored gems and sequins for a bold but beautiful look that can be finished off with a killer pair of heels, a high bun, and not much else!

Listen, we know you're probably STILL eyeballs deep in holiday shopping right now, and your bank account is weeping uncontrollably with every new swipe of your credit card, but just remember: there's a light at the end of the tunnel. The light's called "Spring/Summer 2013," and thanks to our friends at Lil Wayne's breakout streetwear line, Trukfit, we have more than enough ocular helpings of sneak peek neon and prints and skater steez to tide us over until this collection hits stores in January. We got a special tour of Trukfit's New York headquarters courtesy of Trukfit's VP of Merchandising, Frances Wong, Marketing Manager, Mike Morris, and their publicist, Sarah Cunningham, all of whom showed us what's on the horizon for future seasons of Weezy's line. Also, they dropped some serious industry knowledge on how Wanye's ideas become actual, physical clothes, and we nerded out, hanging on every word.
