Usually, when we write about Kristen Stewart, it’s for fairly predictable reasons — she’s either smiled, or she hasn’t smiled. But today, we bring to your attention something entirely new. More
Carrie Underwood–our favorite red carpet risk taker–has the very tangerine June cover of Glamour, as shot by Ben Watts. While we were glancing over interview highlights, we couldn’t help but think Underwood had her own excellent entry for Regrets Week here at TheGloss. More
Last week, we brought you an Illustrated Guide/pop psychology based on your favorite fashion designer. More
So we were outside TheGloss‘ Manhattan office last week and spotted a girl in Dr Martens (which we actively look for, apparently, because we’re still a friendless goth teenager). Upon looking a little closer, we realized they were actually a Dr Martens’ version of chelsea boots, which we had never seen and found kind of surprising. The short, suctioned ankle boot was a staple of the mod scene and enjoys a resurgence about every ten years–also! when spray-painted glossy white, they’re the unofficial shoe of the Stormtroopers in Star Wars–so we decided now would be a good time to go looking for a pair. While window shopping over the weekend, we then noticed approximately 60,000* other girls wearing Chelsea boots. …Which means we have an exploding trend on our hands. Moreover, an “It” shoe that’s walkable and practical is about the only kind we can get behind. So, without further ado… More

You know that obnoxious “Stars: They’re Just Like Us!” page of every celebrity weekly? We saw one the other day that featured Kelly Rutherford from Gossip Girl, and she was pumping gas or feeding the meter or some shit under that very headline… only she was toting a $10,000 Hermès Birkin. Now, we can think of at least one way Rutherford isn’t just like us: we’re not stupid enough to spend $10k on a goddamn status billboard that carries tampons*. Look, we work in fashion, we see frivolity and conspicuous consumption everyday… and now we’re making fun of it! With crude drawings! Here are some assumptions we make about ladies with specific designer purses–YSL, Louis Vuitton, Balenciaga, Alexander Wang and more ahead. More
It was announced today that Ms. Sourpuss herself, Kristen Stewart, will be the face of a new Balenciaga scent. The name of the scent has yet to be announced, but I like to think it will be called “Froncement.” Froncement, of course, being French for “frown.” More

This week’s Friday Style Icon is pretty straight forward: Michelle Williams is a really talented actress and a fashion risk-taker with good taste. She wears a refined palette of metallics and neutrals, knows what looks good on her (she loves a fitted bodice and a full skirt) and sticks to her guns (she will wear all the lace dresses). She’s partial to Chanel, Balenciaga, and Erdem and her trademark look is a mix of ladylike, mod and nonchalant. Although sometimes she comes up short, for the most part Williams is a lovely presence on red carpets who makes unconventional, intelligent fashion decisions and occasionally just kills it (we all remember her yellow Vera Wang from the Oscars). Let’s see some of her hits. More
The Kardashians have learned their lesson: if designers object to you stealing from them, just do it elsewhere. More
We recently learned that mall shoe juggernaut Steve Madden had unleashed a new style called the Hastt platform, which happened to be a pretty obvious ripoff of Miu Miu‘s wildly popular glitter booties. For what it’s worth, the Madden version removes most of the original style’s charm. This week, we’re all like, “Man. Steve Madden has kind of made a business out of this.” And now, a fond look back down the long and winding road of Designs Steve Madden Has Stolen. More
Woman in Hollywood Jennifer Aniston has landed the November cover of Elle, their ‘Women in Hollywood’ issue. She’s wearing a plain black Balmain tank top (how much do you reckon that costs?) and Balenciaga shorts, into which she’s distractingly stuffed one hand. We wonder what she’s hiding in there. Maybe peanuts? More
