    Photo: Getty Images Sometimes when accessorizing, it’s not necessarily one piece of jewelry that creates a memorable look but instead lots of little pieces put together. For example, the perfect arm party or a carefully planned out ring mixture can create a super trendy accessory combination. When it comes to packing on the pieces there’s a beloved trend in jewelry: the mid-knuckle ring. These tiny, delicate rings sit between your knuckle and fingertip, and they’re just plain adorable. We think they look absolutely stunning when combined with lots of other jewelry or even if they are featured by themselves. Stars like Vanessa Hudgens love this new look and we think you will too!

    When it comes to summer footwear, most people don’t think twice before running to their closet to dig up their favorite flip-flops, but this season, why not substitute your go-to sandals for a just as comfortable—and infinitely more practical—shoe? Yes, we’re talking about a good ol’ pair of sneakers, but these aren’t your average lace-ups. The once casual shoe has become somewhat of a high fashion commodity this year, appearing in the collections of luxe labels like Isabel Marant, Marc by Marc Jacobs, and Comme des Garçons. We’ve zeroed in on the three most dominating styles: wedges, canvas, and high-tops—all in a new batch of summer-ready colors and prints. Click below to see our favorites! Wedges Wedge sneakers have taken over this summer, thanks primarily to Isabel Marant’s famed (and sold-out) “Willow” sneaker wedge, a favorite of Kate Bosworth, The Man Repeller, and pretty much every Victoria’s Secret model. Now, brands like Ash and Nike x Liberty have followed suit with their own pumped up kicks—literally: These sneakers can give up to three and a half inches of heel height. You can dressed them up with a maxi skirt or down with skinny jeans and a tee, and the cleverly disguised built-in heel will give you that much-needed extra lift without the pain of a pair of stilettos. These guys have been around for a while, but ELLE thinks they’re still cool, and we do too.

Bensimon unleashed their canvas tennis shoes in the ‘80s, when they were worn by iconic style mavens like Princess Diana and Jane Birkin, and Superga’s rubber-soled sneaks date back to 1925. Now, these practical and preppy lace-ups come in a vast selection of colors—and since they’ve been around forever and are still in style, you may want to invest in a pair (or two).

Converse’s legendary shoe, introducing high top silhouettes of all different heights and designs. There may be some fresh new competitors in the category, but Chucks still remain as cool as they were back in the early 1900s, and now they have that special vintage feel too. Check out our classic and contemporary picks!

    Let’s face it: Twitter can be overwhelming sometimes. It’s nearly impossible for us to digest all of the breaking news on our Twitter feed, and if we think it’s tough, just imagine how hard it is for celebrities and their thousands—sometimes millions—of followers who tweet at them constantly throughout the day. It’s not surprising that some big name tweeters have to take a break from the social networking service once and a while—or just delete their accounts altogether. Alec Baldwin is the most recent celeb to quit Twitter (again) just after his recent nuptials, and other stars have kissed the blue birdie goodbye for other reasons: Some tweeted inappropriate remarks, some took a break to deal with personal issues, and some simply stopped giving updates to keep their public lives more private. We rounded up 10 celebrities who claimed to be done with Twitter for good. (Some have already returned, and we expect more will come crawling back!).


    Alec Baldwin

    Alec Baldwin announced his departure from Twitter on Monday morning, when he tweeted, “It’s been fun” shortly before deleting his account. But this isn’t the first time the tweet-happy actor has taken a break: In December, he temporarily quit after he was thrown off an American Airlines flight…for playing Words With Friends.

    John Mayer

    Many remember when John Mayer left his three million or so followers behind two years ago after making several inappropriate remarks about several of his exes (Jessica Simpson, for one).


    Ashton Kutcher

     

    Photo: Getty Images

    The resident King of Twitter let his management team take the reins of his account after he spoke out against the firing of Penn State coach Joe Paterno before knowing exactly why he was dismissed.


     Demi Moore



    Photo: Getty Images Demi Moore took a break from the Internet while getting treatment at a rehab center after her split from Ashton Kutcher. The former @mrskutcher is now back on her social media game with a brand spanking new Twitter handle: @justdemi.

    Amanda Bynes

    Amanda Bynes gave us a Twitter scare when she announced she was stopping tweeting and acting all at once. Thankfully, the actress changed her mind.

    James Franco

    James Franco’s time in the Twitterverse was short and sweet: After only a few weeks of posting pictures and videos, he deleted his account. But fear not, ladies: The actor is back (and posting more videos!) as @JamesFrancoTV.


    Miley Cyrus



    Photo: Getty Images

    Miley Cyrus went on a Twitter hiatus in 2009 because she wanted more privacy. The behind the scenes life didn’t seem to last for the singer though, as she’s now back to her old tweeting ways.

    Demi Lovato

    Demi Lovato took a break from Twitter and decided to keep a low profile around the same time rumors were circulating of her breaking up with her boyfriend and entering rehab.


    Nicki Minaj



    Photo: Getty Images Nicki Minaj went silent on Twitter after a conflict with a fansite that had started leaking her songs online. After nine days of absence, the rapper returned with heartfelt messages to her millions (yes, millions) of followers.


    Kanye West

    After several (now infamous) Twitter rants, Kanye West put a hold on his tweeting, but the rapper came back with a vengeance this January with tons more tirades.

    Celebrities are no strangers to endorsing beauty products, and now, they’re jumping on the nail art bandwagon too with a whole slew of shades that you can mix and match however your heart desires.

We rounded up our favorites below, check them out!

    One Less Lonely Girl Collection for Nicole By OPI

    Justin Bieber mini hit makers set of 4, $20. Selena’s following in her hubby’s footsteps with her nail collection, because Biebs already has a line of polishes for Nicole By OPI (and it completely sold out across the country upon release!). Each nail color in the collection is inspired by the singer, with names like “OMB!”, “I’m A Belieber”, and “Step 2 the Beat of My Heart”.


    OPI Katy Perry Collection

    OPI Nicki Minaj mini nail lacquers, $10. Nicki Minaj’s set of lacquers is composed of the same light and bright colors that the singer wears herself—and, just like Katy Perry, each hue is named after one of her ditties: “Metallic 4 Life”, “Pink Friday”, and “Super Bass Shatter”.

    Kardashian Kolor




    Photo: Courtesy of OPI Nicole By OPI Kardashian Kolor nail lacquer, $7 each. These powerhouse sisters already have a reality TV show and a clothing line, so the beauty biz was a logical next step. Kardashian Kolor began with a 14-color holiday collection, and now the line of lacquers has transitioned to spring too. The colors are creatively named after the sisters: “All Kendall-ed Up”, “Sealed with a Kris”, “Kim-pletely In Love”…you get the picture.


    Glee Nail Polish Collection for SEPHORA by OPI

    SEPHORA by OPI Glee Collection nail color, $10 each. Fans can totally Gleek out with this nail polish set—each color is inspired by the hit TV show, with names like “Diva-in-Training”, “Miss Bossy Pants” (a.k.a. Rachel), and of course, “Slushied”.
