Short Story

The lace short is becoming a summer staple for girls everywhere. It's casual, it's dressed up and it's incredibly chic at the same time.

According to an anonymous source J.Crew is launching a new low-priced concept brand called J.Crew Mercantile (not to be confused with J.Crew Factory). The new stores will open in a few urban areas and suburban malls at first, I'm assuming there is one coming to NYC.

Think Old Navy to Gap, as J.Crew Mercantile to J.Crew.

I can hardly wait...

Emoji Cuteness Overload

I can't remember the last online conversation I had that didn't involve hashtags or emojis. Del Toro and Edie Parker have created a capsule collection of over-the-top smoking slippers that are too cute to pass up.

Home Sweet Home: Karlie Kloss

Is Karlie ready to settle down??? Looks like it! The Victoria's Secret Angel and international supermodel purchased her first NYC apartment in the West Village. It's overflowing with gilded tables, chairs, mirrors, and that weird fan-or-sun-looking-wall-hanging-thing. Aside the abundance of gold objects, the rest of the choices are pretty awesome. Is anyone else drooling over the above living room chair with wings?? I know I am.

PS the soccer ball inspired kitchen chandelier is a major score, a very glam version of sporty.
