Port’s been pretty quiet since MTV canceled the reality show just over a year ago; she filmed a cameo in What to Expect When You’re Expecting and signed on as the face of British shopping site, Very.com. Though she didn’t stop designing Whitney Eve, she hasn’t shown the collection outside of trade shows—and now she plans on staging a proper runway show at Lincoln Center. Before The City ended, Port left longtime publicist Kelly Cutrone in favor of Alison Brod, but today’s press release comes from Cutrone’s People’s Revolution. Port says, “My collection has grown so much over the past few years, and the next step for me as a designer was to put on my own runway show. I am so excited to show on schedule as part of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York, and can’t wait to show my new fall collection on the runway.” Port’s show will take place at 9AM on February 15th. In other fashion week news, Tommy Hilfger’s leaving Lincoln Center in favor of the Park Avenue Armory at 67th Street (Marc Jacobs shows at the downtown armory). It’s that time of year again—let the gossip begin!

Photo: Splash NewsNot all celebrities can be as academically oriented as our crush of the week, James Franco. Although many celebs give college a shot (actress Dakota Fanning is a freshman at NYU where Disney royalty Dylan and Cole Sprouse also study), it seems like more often big name actors and actresses are calling it quits after their bout with higher education. Last week we learned that Emma Roberts left Sarah Lawrence College after only one semester. The official story is that she couldn’t balance her work as an English Literature major and her acting career (she’s slated to star in Spring Breakers with James Franco, Selena Gomez, and Vanessa Hudgens) but sources say school wasn’t her main priority. Emma herself admitted to skipping a week of class to attend a Tibi show during New York Fashion Week. She told Us Weekly, “I ditched class to come to this show and that’s probably bad. I’m going back at the end of the week.” Her long distance relationship might also be a factor. Her boyfriend, Glee cast member Chord Overstreet lives in L.A and a close friend told Life&Style that “Emma’s in love and wants to spend time with Chord. You can’t blame her!” What other celebs have left college before getting their degrees? Check out our list below!

On March 7th, she announced on her official website that “I love Brown and I love studying pretty much more than anything but recently I’ve had so much to juggle that being a student AND fulfilling my other commitments has become a little impossible.” In April, the 21-year-old actress announced that she would spend her junior year abroad at Oxford University and would be returning to finish her senior year at Brown.

I’m really happy with what I’m doing. I read a lot of books, you know. So, I have no urge to go back to college.”

She told The Independent, “It was getting to the point where I wasn’t enjoying either thing enough because both were very high pressure. I was burning out and I knew I had to make a decision.”

Despite leaving, he loved college, telling The New York Times that during school, “I started to care about the world, and I wanted to somehow connect with it.”

Photo: Natalie Joos
In 1997, Natalie Joos made her move from Belgium to the east coast, landing in New York—and landing a gig as Glenn O’Brien’s personal assistant. From there, she managed Craig McDean’s photography studio and since then, has launched and grown her own casting agency helping to find fresh faces for clients like Helmut Lang, Phillip Lim, and Hugo Boss. Joos’ keen eye and love of vintage have earned her a top spot on the international fashion circuit and fueled her beloved blog, Tales of Endearment. What is your favorite smell? I used to be obsessed with the after sun cream for the face by Clarins. I literally went weak in the knees when I smelled it. It was summer in a bottle. I haven’t bought it in a while, but now that you made me think about it… What do you consider the epitome of happiness? Hearing a great song that transports you into higher spheres makes you smile involuntarily and forget everything. How do you define luxury? Luxury is being able to do what you desire without strings. It’s hedonism with sprinkles of gold on top. What is the last dream you remember? I’m sure it was something racy… What’s your favorite childhood memory? My mom sitting me down on the mantelpiece in the living room when I was about 2 years old tying my favorite shoes. I wore a navy dress with a peter pan collar. I loved those shoes but they were only for Sundays. What’s the last book you read and loved? I just finished reading In Cold Blood by Truman Capote, but can’t say I really loved it. He gives away all the juicy bits in the beginning—there’s not much left to be imagined or discovered. I was disappointed, although the writing is great of course! The last book I did love was The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. And whenever David Sedaris comes out with a new book I sprint to the store. Describe your home’s aesthetic. Minimally modern with a touch of 60′s, and some antique pieces for balance and character. What are your vices? I bite my nails. It’s a bad habit, but it’s under control. Describe yourself in five words or less. Funny, smart, spontaneous, rational, OCD. What possession will you never throw away? I am a borderline hoarder; this question is irrelevant.

We were wowed by Olivia Wilde’s smokey-but-colorful and sultry-but-fresh look at the 2012 Palm Springs Film Critics Awards last weekend. Pairing bronze shadow, purple liner, and a modified cat eye was a lot of look to love, but Olivia kept her makeup statement bold (not overdone) with a fresh face and a sheer, light lipstick. Get noticed on prom night our top picks for perfectly emulating her modern, glamorous style.
1. Walk the Line

Using short, feather light strokes apply a liquid liner directly against the base of your top lash line. When you get to the outside corner of your eye, give yourself a small wing tip. This mini-modified cat eye line will help you gauge where to stop applying the rest of your shadow and add just the right amount of drama.
2. Plum-fection

We love this palette from Sephora, which has every color you need to pull off our Prom Look of the Day. Using an angled brush, line your bottom lash line with a deep purple, like the one in the palette above with rich, brown undertones. You don’t want an exact line so smudge with your fingertip and add a thicker line of dark brown starting at the middle of your eye to the outer edge. Apply a medium bronze to your top lid, keeping the color below your crease and then add a layer of darker bronze above your crease, starting at the middle of your eye and continuing out to where you finished your cat eye. Highlight below your brow around your tear ducts with a cream color. Add a few layers of your favorite mascara, using diagonal strokes for a wide-eyed look.
3. Super Glimmer-ous

This three-in-one creamy shimmer stick is a major must-have for a fresh, glowing complexion. To get Olivia’s look, apply with a foundation brush, your fingertips or the stick itself, to the apples of your cheeks and your lips. You’ll get a richer deposit of color if you apply directly to your skin so be ready to blend, blend and blend some more. Add a layer of gloss over your lips for some extra shine.

From giving undercover menswear advice to Fendi to secretly learning how to design women’s shoes at Giuseppe Zanotti, Kanye West is quite the fashion guru—at least according to the life story that he tweeted between the hours of 4 and 6 a.m. London time this morning. His two-hour tirade included snippets of his illustrious fashion career that has been, until now, largely kept under wraps. Hip hop superstar by day, couture genius by night, Kanye allegedly spent a month in Japan, interning with Fendi before spending another four months passing them secret tips for their menswear line. He was also offered a position at Versace but had to turn it down due to a two-year contract with Louis Vuittion, where he’s designed sneakers in the past. It seems like Kanye felt like he had to defend himself after a fake twitter account that claimed to be the official handle for his fashion line surfaced. He made sure to mention that he isn’t only a seasoned designer, but a self-made one as well. According to him, he has no financial backers for his collection but “did the first fashion show out of my own pocket and used the money I made touring to follow my passion.” Want more details? ELLE.com‘s got the play by play.

- Christina Aguilera has had a rough time in the media lately due to the constant critique regarding her body. But Christina refuses to let it get to her, she fights back instead! "I have a boyfriend that loves my body," she says. "I love my body, my son is healthy and happy and that is all that matters." When it comes to body image, Christina is an amazing role model, "women, we are definitely under a microscope and under massive scrutiny," she says and continues, "As long as I am happy in my own skin, that is all that is all the confirmation I need." We couldn't agree more! It's nice to see that Christina has such a healthy self image! (people)
