Stüssy x Beavis and Butt-Head.

If you're anything like us, you embody the couch-locked pop-culture pundits Beavis and Butt-Head to the extent that you're maaaaaybe too lazy for appointment viewing. Though the resurrected run, aka Season 9, JUUUUUUST ended and that's all dreadfully :( it does also mark the AWESOME occasion of the entire 12 episode run being available for viewing online. DO THE MATH: this means you can watch it all on your iPad or laptop or Kindle Fire or whatever IN BED, which is the most luxurious viewing experience of all.

The only thing that gilds that ol' lily of a lazytime supine 'splosion is if you're WEARING a Beavis And Butt-Head x Stüssy crew neck sweatshirt with cashmere leggings (OH WE KNOW) while doing so...and drinking an alcoholic milkshake from a sippy cup (WHILE LYING DOWN). The thing you should know about your new and very necessary jumper is that its existence is partly owed to the birth of one man (NO, NOT MIKE JUDGE, but good guess). This dude goes by the name of Adam Jay Weissman and he is not only the art director at Stüssy and responsible for special T-shirt projects like Stüssy x Marvel, he is also the producer and percussionist for L.A.-based R&B, pop, soul, "cosmic sci-fi" trio Pollyn.

He's cool so we interviewed him and learned about what inspires him, what he loves about the CLASSIC MTV icons, and how the Beavis and Butt-Head-Stüssy collab almost never happened.

Dianna Agron and Darren Criss in retro swimwear.

There's nothing that screams "HOLIDAY!" more than a pair of red and white swimsuits. Wait, what? Seriously, stay with me here. The holidays are all about festive attire in every imaginable incarnation—from ridiculous Christmas sweaters to wooly mufflers and capes—but in some parts of the world swimwear is a totally legit option for this colder holiday month. I'm talking places like Southern Cali or onstage with The Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall. Another place where these two examples seem to crisscross in candy cane-striped harmony? The set of Glee. Dianna Agron recently posted the cutest pic evah to her Twitter feed with the caption, "Today at the pool. You would think we were filming a classic movie with @DarrenCriss." Funny, that's exactly what I was thinking, only the classic movie I was seeing in my head had sparkly floating icicles, synchronized swimming snowmen, and Darren and Dianna singing "Baby, It's Cold Outside" to each other while dancing around an ice floe with gigantic candy canes. Seriously, though, what's going on in this adorable retro-inspired photo?

Robyn Saturday Night Live

The pop music stars were (literally/figuratively/awesomely) aligned on Saturday evening when Swedish pop gem Robyn (and her BANANAS custom platform Timbs) took the SNL stage and former tour homegirl Katy Perry was the night's hostest-with-the-mostess. But was America ready for the Swedish pop tart with a bite and her body-rollin, making-out-with-herself dance moves? She did a backwards-somersault-into-a-full-on-dance-floor-hump while rocking a pristine bowl cut (which our little brothers totally had in '96) WHILST singing "Call Your Girlfriend," and it might've actually changed our lives, like, forevs. *dead* Call US, girlfriend. Not only do we wanna borrow those bouncy moves, we also want to raid that suitcase of yours.

katy perry snl promo

Dispelling the myth that she's just a singer, Katy Perry is hosting Saturday Night Live this weekend with Robyn set to take care of musical guest duties. If there's one thing we've been waiting to see, it's Miss Congeniality, aka Katy, do some straight-up acting. She's already exhibited considerable comedic chops in her music video for "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)", as well as high drama in the recent "The One That Got Away" in which she frolicked with one of Mexico's finest thespian exports, Diego Luna. While we can't wait to see the zany characters she will undoubtedly create, we also can't wait to see what she's going to wear for her opening monologue and in every single photo SNL shows of their guest host during the commercial break. The first set of promos alone showcase Katy in the CUTEST Victoria Beckham cat printed dress that we didn't realize we wanted so badly until we saw it highlighting Katy's razor bob.

Set your DVR's, little monsters, because tomorrow Mother Monster (aka Lady Gaga) will perform "Marry the Night" in all her triumphant edge of gloriousness with a gaggle of twirling dancers on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. She'll also sit down with Ellen and talk about her new video while donning icicle eyebrows and cinnamon buns on her head. Ohhhh, yes, as she's always one to top herself as well as celebrate the season, Our Lady says, "To heck with global warming, I'm making my own icicles and I'm wearing them on my BROWS!" (Or so we imagine.) Can't you just smell the warm aroma of cinnamon, nutmeg, and melted frosting wafting from this picture? We can, and now we want a tall glass of eggnog and more Gaga please.

ZOMG, you guys, Gossip Girl was INTENSE last night; in fact, we're still hyperventilating over it! It all started off so serenely with Serena (Blake Lively) and Dan (Penn Badgley) having brunch with the parentals, who were trying to get these two crazy former lovebirds to forgive one another and be friends again. Besides, what better time than now while the Rhodes/Van Der Woodsen/Humphrey family prepares to debut faux niece Charlie (aka Ivy) (Kaylee DeFer) to New York society? Charlie/Ivy's still trying to avoid her ex-boyfriend, Max (Brian J. Smith), who refuses to stop his crusade to expose her for the fraud she is to the new family she wants to be a part of forever. Even though she thinks she has everything in control, Max has a new plan of attack.

In Alternate Story Line Land, Blair (Leighton Meester) can't decide between the father of her baby, Prince Louis (Hugo Becker), and the fire of her heart, Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick). She runs away to Brooklyn to shack up in the safe arms of Dan, who wants to tell her that he's secretly in love with her but can't seem to get the words out. Oh, and Nate (Chace Crawford) is still battling his grandfather for the right to own his own life. Did we forget to mention there's a giant car chase and cliffhanging CRASH that leaves two of our faves in critical condition? If you haven't caught up yet, we would hate to spoil the rest for you. Until next time, check back here weekly for our fashion recap!

We've seemingly had every kind of fashion-related, runway-based, catwalk-challenge TV show imaginable, but there's always room for one more. Enter Alexa Chung's new show, 24 Hour Catwalk, which is set to debut on Lifetime on Jan. 10. From what we've seen so far, it looks to be a super crazy, amped-up version of the network's other fashion mainstay, Project Runway, only with way more hiss-fights, tears, and an even tighter deadline to deliver a three-look collection with the assistance of a sewing team. While we didn't get to see much in the way of actual outfits in the first preview of the show, what we did see was some mega sass-mouthing from the judges, including designer Cynthia Rowley, media and communications mogul James LaForce, and fashion writer Derek Blasberg. The show also appears to have selected a motley assortment of CRAYBEES (aka cray-baby designers, aka highly entertaining reality show people, aka ratings gold). Also? There are LIVE SNAKES that we hope won't be used to make a dress.

There's nothing like the glitteringly ideal-looking beauties of Gossip Girl to snap you out of your tryptophan-induced hibernation status and send you barreling full speed ahead for the gym. The Upper East Side's PYTs turned up the volume on this post-Thanksgiving episode with a STUDIO 54 PARTY (I know, MAY-JOR) that excused sparkly eye shadows, miles of lamé, and an industrial amount of disco-worthy hair spray. Before all the mirror ball festivities could kick off, though, quite a grip of drama unfolded. As it does.

With Prince Louis (Hugo Becker) away (again) and having left such a sour taste with Blair (Leighton Meester) the night of her bridal shower, B was free to pester Chuck (Ed Westwick) for the secret to his newfound "goodness," including an escorted trip to Chuck's therapist. Nate (Chace Crawford) is kept busy captaining The Spectator as editor in chief, while Dan (Penn Badgley) becomes consumed with defending against anonymous Humphrey dissenters in online book forums. The New York appearance of Charlie's (aka Ivy's) (Kaylee DeFer) ex-boyfriend Max (Brian J. Smith) and his recent pursuit of a relationship with Serena (Blake Lively) makes for a LOT of serious intrafamilial DRAMZ, but it's SO juicy, if you haven't caught up yet, we would hate to spoil the rest for you. Until next time, check back here weekly for our fashion recap!

Whew, there's finally some major momentum over in Gossip Girl Land (aka Manhattan's Upper East Side). This week's episode centered around Blair's (Leighton Meester) bridal shower thrown by her BFF and Made of Honor, Serena (Blake Lively), of course. S and all of B's minions tried to throw the soon-to-be royal bride off the control trail and tricked her into thinking the shower was "casual" and would involve things like shaved Hawaiian ice (still can't believe they fooled her with that). Dan (Penn Badgley) wasn't invited to the shower shindig, so he went to Chuck (Ed Westwick)—who also wasn't invited—for help in toughening up his Lonely Boy image. Instead, Dan ends up getting his drink on and running off to Blair's shower. Meanwhile, Diana (Elizabeth Hurley) schemed with Nate's (Chace Crawford) grandfather who, it turns out, owns the Spectator website, and has given her three days to steal Gossip Girl's traffic or she'll be out of a job. Nate finds all of GG's sources and gives them to Diana and Serena, but both decide not to leak the information.

Who does leak the info? Oh, just Blair's lame-o fiancé, Prince Boring Louis (Hugo Becker), who keeps trying to prove to Blair that her friends do not have her best interests at heart. Poor Blair finds out the hard way in the middle of her Tiffany-themed shower (not a piece of melting shaved ice in the place), and she tells her Prince to beat it while she figures things out. Oh, and over in secret identity story lines, Charlie (aka Ivy) (Kaylee DeFer) tries to buy off her sketchy ex who decides to blackmail her instead. But what about Blair and CHUCK? If you haven't caught up yet, we won't spoil the rest for you. Check back here weekly for our fashion recap!

Last night's Gossip Girl was somewhat of a transitionary episode, but nonetheless brimming with juicy dramz. Kicking things off with Serena's (Blake Lively) new gig working at the Spectator for Diana (Elizabeth Hurley) who wants Serena to start a blog to rival GG herself (sidenote: is it just me or is there a weird "gotta catch 'em all" feel to Diana's Spectator staffing?). Diana nabbed Serena after her former job with Jane (Michael Michele) fell through when she halted production on the film version of Dan's (Penn Badgley) book. Dan's supposed to be out on a book tour but has apparently been missing meet and greets. Maybe dropping off the bestseller list hurt his pride?

Charlie (aka Ivy) (Kaylee DeFer) has gotten herself wrapped up in a cougar love triangle with Diana and Nate (Chace Crawford) which, with the sudden reappearance of Ivy's ex-boyfriend Max, can only lead to major trouble for her secret double life. Prince Louis (Hugo Becker) is away on business, and with his recent slip to the dark and scheming, and Chuck's (Ed Westwick) public turning of a new leaf, Blair (Leighton Meester) is *cough* once again *cough* conflicted about her choice (though she'd never admit that). Blair plans to reveal that the real Chuck Bass still exists deep down. Just about everything comes to a head at Chuck's masked masquerade party slash play, but if you haven't caught up, we won't spoil the rest for you. Check back here weekly for our fashion recap!

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