There's something resolutely American about Tom Ford. The six foot tall Texas-born designer, who became well known for heading the powerhouse Gucci, knows how to sell sexy clothes and get to the bottom line. He has his own brand, after his own name. It could be the sign of an egotist, or a supremely confident man.
He carved a niche for himself, as an actor in television commercials before he became famous for his clothes. He had the dark and brooding good looks. He had charisma in spades. Dropping out of NYU and hanging out with the "fabulous people" at Studio 54, he came to several conclusions: one about his sexuality, and two, about his passion for fashion design.

15-year-old Chloë Moretz began her acting career at the age of seven, appearing in hit films like (500) Days of Summer, The Amityville Horror, and critically-acclaimed films such as Let Me In and Hugo. The actress is not only becoming a household name in film, but she is also quickly becoming one of the most stylish young starlets out there.
Former Disney darling Miley Cyrus got real cheeky in a Los Angeles American Apparel Wednesday afternoon. The star went bra-less under a crop top and a pair of barely there short shorts. She threw on a black and red flannel shirt as a cover-up and stepped out in black combat boots.
Miley 19, and her fiancé, Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth 22, met on the set of their movie “The Last Song” back in 2009. News of their engagement has sparked some controversy because of how young the two stars are; Controversy that has gone so far to spark rumors of a pregnancy.
We’ll let you Joonbuggers be the judge!

It's almost swimsuit season and we all know what that means, some extra gym sessions and hot new trends to show off that rocking body! For summer, designers are playing with color blocking, cutout pieces and even bringing back the one-piece bathing suit while looking sexier than ever. There are a few new trends to look for while bathing suit shopping this season, so grab your sunglasses, throw on some sunblock, and take a look at how you can get some of these fresh new trends for less!
Bold Colorblocking
We all know colorblocking has been a staple trend for the past couple seasons. It shows no sign of stopping this summer. Make a bold and playful statement with a retro, colorful suit.
Everything is getting bigger and better this spring! From the chunky statement necklaces, to the bold bright colors. Another trend to add to your style this upcoming season is big (in size and number) hair accessories. They were all over the spring/summer 2012 runways and they are slowly starting to transcend onto the pavement, and we're loving it! We accessorize our jewelry, bags, and shoes with our ensembles, so why not make our hair look trendy too?
Try the more is more approach with this look. If you’re adding a bobby pin to your bun, add 5 more, and make them noticeable. If you're pulling your hair back, stick in some bright colored barrettes or beaded (yes, that’s right, beaded) hair ties.
