Happy Monday, everyone! And no, we're not even being sarcastic. In fact, we're still coasting off our Bling Ring high from over the weekend, and hopefully you are, too, since Sofia Coppola's Hollywood heist flick finally saw its New York/Los Angeles release on Friday! We've been ALL over this movie (much like Emma Watson & co. were all over Paris Hilton's shoe closet, heh) ever since we first got wind of the early production stills about a year ago. Now, the promo has officially come full circle, thanks to VFiles and its new Bling Ring capsule. The e-tailer/video company/all-around creative hub has just debuted a collection of products inspired by the movie. Stocked with jersey short shorts, patterned nail wraps, and Ring Pops, this set (which is packaged like a police evidence bag) pretty much covers all the bases.

Who else loves summertime awards shows?? *raises two hands waaaaay up because obviously we're biased* Our favorite stars coming together dressed to the warm-weather red carpet nines? Yes, PLEASE! One of our faves, the MuchMusic Video Awards popped off last night, and its step and repeat was stacked with season-appropriate stunners from Demi Lovato to Taylor Swift and everyone in between.

Not only did Demi win big in the show, scoring the MMVA for International Video of the Year with "Heart Attack," she slayed on the red carpet in sleek Saint Laurent. D lightened her blonde hair a touch for the event (at which she also performed). All the better to pop against that black, high-necked, long-sleeved, strong-shouldered mini, AMIRITE?

New Girl's Hannah Simone Takes Us On Modern Vice Factory Tour

Hannah Simone likes shoes. Who doesn’t, right? But work with us, here. So as we were saying, Hannah Simone likes shoes. Flat shoes, spiky shoes, flippy floppy shoes and running shoes. Since she plays a model on New Girl, she gets to wear all kinds of different shoes. One day, she stumbled into a pair of black wedge sneakers that quickly became part of her regular rotation. They were comfy as hell, versatile as heck and looked awesome as f*ck. Hannah Simone danced in them, strutted in them and maybe even rescued a family of baby ducks in them once. (Not confirmed.) They were made by a company called Modern Vice.

Brothers Jordan and Jensen Adoni had a dream to follow in their father’s footsteps and start a shoe business - but not some hackneyed shoe business. They wanted to establish a factory in New York City and craft wares with their bare hands, like men. Only a couple years later, their company Modern Vice holds fort in a 7,000 square foot midtown factory, and they're one of few manufacturers making shoes in New York.

When Hannah heard their story, she wanted to see what happens behind the scenes at Modern Vice. How did her new favorite pair of sneakers come to life? She found the company’s traditional values and ambitious nature inspiring, and the idea of bringing manufacturing back to America resonated with her. But also, how many times have you seen a shoe being lovingly forged by expert craftsmen? Exactly. Never times. Simone had to see it. Lucky for us, she invited us along for the field trip.

Hey Kanye West, You Should Totally Get This Stuff Made For Your Baby Girl!

Posted 6/15/13 7:53 pm EST by Gaby Wilson in Humor

This morning, Kim Kardashian gave boyfriend Kanye West the ULTIMATE Father's Day present: reportedly giving birth to their brand new baby girl and officially making him a dad just in time for the holiday! Ye may have his hands full at the moment with the much-anticipated release of his Yeezus album right around the corner, but he's also made explicitly clear just how excited he is to be a father. Knowing Yeezy, we think it's pretty safe to say that this baby girl is going to be better dressed than most fully developed humans, and the likelihood that much of her closet will be stocked with exclusive one-of-one pieces is extremely high. New momma Kim said it best during a guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live earlier this year, "If anyone knows Kanye, they just know how into fashion he is, and I think he’s going to have things, like, specially made. I don’t think hand-me-downs are going to work. I think it has to be, like, really fun stuff." We've heard scant of this "really fun stuff" since then, but if Mr. West is fielding suggestions, we have a few.

• Dior made honest women of us this week by both confirming the rumors that Robert Pattison would be the face of their Dior Homme fragrance AND giving us the first image from his campaign.

• On the eve of the official release of his Yeezus album, this week was all about Kanye West, from his Beyonce-laden birthday party to his Governors Ball performance, from that New York Times interview to today's big leak. #yeezyseason

• We got a behind-the-scenes look at Nicki Minaj's Kmart collection. It may not be for everyone, but between the larger-than-life prints and sexy silhouettes, it's definitely hallmark Miss Minaj.

• One Direction had a party for their perfume launch. It was in London. On top of a high-rise building. There was a life-size box and some twirling. In other words, it was perfect.

• Our girl Kristin Cavallari got married and in gorgeous satin, mermaid silhouetted Monique Lhuillier no less. CONGRATS, K.CAV!

Does Pepper Spray Need A Glamorous Makeover?

BlingSting is a thing.

We get press releases of varying utility all day at MTV Style. Some are helpful and exciting and others are ill-conceived to the point of seeming like dispatches from lunatic space aliens attempting to lay a trap. The following is an imagined conversation during a fictitious meeting that took place between the revolutionary thinkers behind BlingSting, a bedazzled pepper spray.

Dude 1: Gentlemen, my team and I called this ideation meeting to discuss the future of safety for all women who we know and love every day. Picture this: I'm a chick, I'm pre-gaming with my girlfriends. I look good. I smell GREAT. I had a couple dranks. I'm totally gonna smang it. I'm wearing one of those tight dresses but with sequins and, like, only one sleeve, and as I'm leaving my house, I want to be responsible and pack my pepper spray, but I don't because it's such a *air quotes* fugly buzzkill.

Three Ways To Combat June Gloom With Your Wardrobe

Posted 6/14/13 1:00 pm EST by Liza Darwin in Shopping, Trends

Real talk: it's hard not to get depressed while looking at the weather forecast, you guys. We know that SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) normally applies to the wintertime, but considering how soaking, sopping, and downright muddy the summertime has been thus far (at least on the East Coast), this nonstop dreariness is seriously taking a toll. BUT you know what? Instead of succumbing to the temptation to sulk about the rain, it's time to make the most of it, starting with—duh, where else?!—your closet. So whether you feel like braving the storm, catching up on Netflix at home, or denying the grossness outside all together, here are 3 stylish ways to beat June Gloom until the sun comes out again.

FACE THE ELEMENTS

Beat the storm straight-on in these rainy essentials.

If you're the adventurous type (or just want to duck out for a coffee), stay dry with these super cute rainy essentials. The bright yellow Urban Outfitters slicker will add a dash of sunshine to the gray everywhere else, and you can never go wrong with classic forest green Hunter boots. Then again, if it's not a total downpour, we also love Loeffler Randall's rubber leopard booties, since they're one of the few styles that don't look embarrassingly out of place once the rain stops. Herschel's classic backback lets you free up your hands for the ultimate staple: your umbrella.

Welp, if there's anything we know for sure, it's that Rihanna's collab with MAC Cosmetics was (and still is!) a surefire hit. We've been freakin' ever since we heard that she'd be dropping four (yes, four) RiRi <3 MAC collections throughout 2013, and, in case you missed it, her debut lipstick, RiRi Woo, sold out in within the first three hours it was released. In. Sane. Today, we FINALLY get to feast our eyes on her first full RiRi <3 MAC collection, just in time for summer! Rihanna's five-piece set includes three lipsticks, a powder blush duo, and MAC's infamous lustre drops. PERF.

Vans Fall 2013 Features Jewels, Animal Prints, Sneaker Wedges (!) And More

Vans is no stranger to rad collaborations, adorable lookbooks, and even some pretty awesome DIY action (hi, Macklemore!). However, despite debuting platform skate sneakers last season and having its toes consistently dipped into the fashion world, there's ONE trend the brand has held out on...until now, that is. Behold, the Vans sneaker wedge! Proving that the hidden heel really IS the trend that just might go on forever, the athletic giant is rolling out two new styles for Fall 2013. So whether or not you're a fan of the hidden heel yourself, there's no denying the staying power of the wedge sneaker. After all, they're comfy, they're versatile, and, in the case of the solid color Vans Sk8-Hi Wedge and the Leopard Print Sk8-Hi Wedge, they're still injected with that signature Vans sporty swagger.
