- We think comedian, Andy Samberg, is the perfect mix of slightly dorky and super hilarious! He's talented, smart, has a great smile, and is extremely funny! But is he hot? We just can't decide! He has all of the personal qualities to be our dream guy, but we're not sure if he is!
Help us decided if we're on to something here or if we should just move on!

The British Fashion Council announced their nominees for the British Fashion Awards 2011 this morning. And though we’ll have to wait until November 28th to learn the winners, the roster of nominees is worth getting excited about a couple of months early. Not so surprisingly, two of Kate Middleton‘s favorites, Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen and Erdem, are in the running for Designer of the Year alongside Christopher Kane. Meanwhile, Victoria Beckham was nominated for Designer Brand of the Year for the second time in a row and she’s in masterful company, competing against Burberry, Stella McCartney and Tom Ford. Nineteen year old Georgia May Jagger has stiff competition for Model of the Year: Chanel muses Kristen McMenamy and Stella Tennant, both in their forties, have had a brilliantly diverse year betwene them. “This year’s nominees demonstrate the breadth and creativity London has to offer,” said Harold Tillman CBE, Chairman of the British Fashion Council. “The fashion brands and designers that are based here set the trends across the globe.” Click through to see a complete list of this year’s nominees.

- There are some mornings that we just don't have time style our hair perfectly! Washing, blow drying, straightening, or curling, and then pinning and spraying- it can just take so much time! So on those in-between days or the ones where we're running a bit late, we use a little style trick to make sure we look perfect and polished for the coming day! To ensure that we don't look like a complete mess, we slick back our hair and put on our favorite headband! Headbands help tame flyaways, hide greasy hair, and look amazingly chic! For a super sleek look put your into a ponytail or if you have time, dramatically part your hair to one side for a modern twist!

Rag & Bone’s brought their DIY campaign back for fall, though this time they’ve added supermodels. Marcus Wainwright and David Neville handed Karolina Kurkova a bag full of clothes (maybe not literally, but basically) and asked her to style the pants and tees as she would on a regular day. We have your first look at the campaign, which will continue to drop throughout September with new models. If you need even more inspiration, you can check out their blog for a behind the scenes look at the rest of the campaign!

A look at Rookie's home page.
Tavi Genvinson, the teen blogger best known for a) being wise beyond her years b) inspiring Rodarte’s Target collection c) a great sense of style and d) causing a couture hat scandal, has finally launched her latest, much-anticipated venture. Rookie, an online mag for her high-school aged peers with a twice yearly print edition, went live yesterday. We may be far from Gevinson‘s 15-years-young, but that doesn’t make her new site any less cool. It’s the voice of many a gawky teenager with a fondness for vintage iconoclast and eccentricities alike, giving a home to unknowingly sophisticated kids who’ll one day be the next Alexa Chung despite the peer exile they may be suffering through right now. Our favorite things about Rookie are:

- We're soo in love with the color green this Fall! All the hottest celebs are wearing it, and we're green with envy! Lady Gaga loves this hot trend, going all in with green hair to match! Maybe that's a bit much for us, but it's definitely Gaga!
We love all shades of green, especially the color of Ashley Tisdale's Balenciaga bag! If you're looking for totally glam look, check out Jennifer Lopez's long green dress! She looks like a total goddess! Actress, Michelle Monaghan, shows us how this hot trend can be worn more casually! We also love Beyonce's emerald dress, it's super hot!
Green looks great on everybody, so make sure to stock up on this trendy Fall color! Click on the pics to see how our fave celebs glow in green!

One would think that after years of collaboration surprises, successes and even a few failures the world would get progressively less excited. But despite sooner releases—Missoni for Target, Karl Lagerfeld for Macys, the Kardashians for Sears!—everyone’s salivating over Versace for H&M. This image, of Abbey Lee Kershaw in a bright Chinoiserie dress and pants with a classic Versace medallion belt, is from the collaboration’s official lookbook. It leaked this morning, first on I Know Something You Don’t Know, then the Fashion Spot and finally Fashionista. It’s a far cry from the all leather looks that debuted alongside the announcement of the collaboration and further proof that there really will be something for everyone. The collection launches on November 19th.

Anne Hathaway’s landed her first fashion campaign. In the past, the actress has posed for Gap and Lancôme, but Mert and Marcus have just shot her for Tod’s new Signature Collection. Their new bags target a younger customer, while holding onto Tod’s signatures like great, pebbled leather and contrast stitching. Fabien Baron, who came up with the shoot’s concept based in part on Hathaway’s role as Catwoman, said, “It’s impactful and vibrant, referencing Warhol and Guy Bourdin’s world of luxury, art and sublime women. We see a stunningly exquisite Anne as a classic beauty with a modern Italian edge—feminine and strong.” Hathaway said of the bags, which hit stores in October, “They don’t grow older, they only grow better just like a woman.”

- Oh no! Poor Adele is so sick right now! The "Rolling in the Deep" singer has been forced to postpone part of her UK Tour after becoming very sick with a chest infection! Adele felt really bad for her fans and wrote on her website, "hi guys, sorry about the first 2 shows. im as useless as a slug right now, ive had a rotten cold since i got home earlier this week...its leaving me breathless and i can't hold any of notes when i sing." Hopefully her fans understand! We think it's much better that she gets well and rests than if she would be sick and sing! We love you Adele, get well soon! (perezhilton)

Sneakers may have a bad rap, but after checking out the ones we’ve picked, those preconceived notions are bound to fade. Instead of faking sick for gym class to sit on the bleachers, you’ll be itching to go. While you may not be the fastest in these kicks, you will undoubtedly look the coolest.
