Shark Attack! This Cool Cali Designer Cops The Givenchy Look For Less

Givenchy2-1

We never advocate knockoffs. Ever. But there does seem to be a common zeitgeist that designers subconsciously tap into to bring us the hottest trends season after season (hello, floral denim for spring).

L.A.'s own Heather Gardner and Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci must have been on the same sweet wavelength with their shark tooth accessories this season, and we're so stoked that this month's rent check won't have to go mysteriously "missing" to get in on this under-the-sea style. For $255 (versus $892), Heather's bauble may not be as big, bold, or badass, but Vanessa Hudgens doesn't seem to care (she's been living in hers) ? and we don't want to go scaring anyone, anyway!

Heather Gardner Petite Shark Tooth Necklace, $195, available at Heather Gardner.

Brad Goreski Models 4 Spring Looks�?�& Spills Some Serious Dish

Full disclosure: We remember Brad Goreski from way back when, before the TV tear sheds and red-carpet coups (we?re still reeling from Jessica Alba?s Golden Globes moment last year). We?ve all rejoiced in his sky-rocketing success story because, at the end of the day, it took oodles of elbow grease and killer wit to become Bravo?s It?s A Brad Brad World It Boy.

But, after our revealing interview, we learned things about the 34-year-old Toronto native that made us adore him so much more. Yes, he talked a tad about his feud with Zoe (although he?d rather not), but with his memoir, Born To Be Brad: My Life and Style, So Far hitting shelves today, he actually opened up about so many more important skeletons that were previously in his closet (did you know that being 10 years sober is his secret weapon, or that he used to rummage around in bins full of the Goodwill's toss-offs?).

And don?t worry, we got into his literal closet, too, snagging shots of him donning looks loaded with spring tips and tricks that work for guys and girls from every walk of life. With a fresh gig as Kate Spade?s stylist and a slew of celebrities banging down his door, this may be the last time he comes up for air for a long while. So, take a good gander?and notes! 01-_MG_0092

Yves Saint Laurent Fall 2012

>> If you've got to go, might as well do it with a bang. Or better yet, with an army of sharp-shouldered power women leading the charge.

For his last collection at Yves Saint Laurent, Stefano Pilati did just that. His coats, dresses, tops, and trousers were cut in strongly tailored '80s shapes - broad-topped, angular, and belted. Chainmail dresses, slinky jumpsuits, and asymmetrical furs felt darkly glam in dusky greens and inky blacks; and the house's Le Smoking was re-imagined in sharp swaths of silver or leather. It was tough, chic, and as confident as they come.

Pilati may be out, but he's not looking back.

Terry Richardson And A Shoe Fetish? Shocking?

Terry Richardson And A Shoe Fetish? Shocking?

Terry Richardson has both feet firmly planted on the ground ? or something. We love the glimpse of one of his latest ad campaigns to come out for Aldo. We have to admit, we're pretty stoked on the continuation of this relationship. There's just something about a shoe fetish and Terry that makes utter and complete sense.

In any case, in true Terry form the new spring campaign is shot in all sorts of bright poppy colors and is full of (not so) subtle sexual innuendos, making us itch for some major open-toe action and for the warmer climate to hurry up already. Also we have to admit, we're major fans of the sock and sandal action going on in the ad and video. It's such a cute throwback to vintage looks -- obviously once it's warm enough to shed our tights and go bare, we'll be rocking this look all the time.

Want more? Check out Anais Pouliot in the saucy video below doing a number on a popsicle. (Trust us, it'll heat you up in no time).

Are These The New Silly Bandz? The Webster Thinks So!

Bright colors and high design practically make up Miami's DNA, even if such gorgeous luxury usually comes with a price meant for the one-percenters. Fortunately for those of us who can't splurge on Louboutins on 40th on the reg, The Webster is offering a forward-thinking new (and local!) jeweler for only a Jefferson. Uno Magnetic by Luis Pons offers interactive and neon colored jewelry that can be made into stackable bracelets, necklaces, and rings ? like Bucky Balls for your bling. The jewelry itself is metal and magnetic, meaning it can be combined or wrapped with itself, bunched or braided with others, and worn in as many (or few) colors as you want.

The idea behind the line is that there is no "right way" to wear Uno, which is why it comes in so many colors (lime green, sunflower yellow, aqua blue). Inspired by working in Miami, Pons wanted to create a product that is as diverse as the city in which he lives. So finally we can head into The Webster and get something that won't mean we can't eat out for the next three weeks ? and it's made by a local, too! Click through to see the amazing ways Luis suggests wearing his creations. Available at The Webster, 1220 Collins Avenue, 305-673-5548.

These Sneakers Are L.A. Lights For Adults (Score!)

Love sneaker culture but feel uncomfy with your kicks being fashioned who-knows-where overseas? Then dig on Electrolites Footwear, a brand-new Brooklyn duo whose designs appeal to an adult's comfy-shoe fetish without all the footprints (of the ecological type, of course). Launched last year by pals Doug Berman and Matthew Paul, the line has three basic shoe types ? with adorable floral-and-seersucker lining ? plus a seasonal collaboration with a young local artist. "We (looked) for artists who had a refined style all of their own,? says Paul, hoping to have the creative define the shoe, not the other way around. The result is a unisex pair of basketball-like, limited-edition sneakers, that, like our favorite pair of shoes from the third grade, light up when we walk.

?We were jokingly discussing the idea of creating light-up sneakers for adults,? says Paul. "We became focused on creating a brand that embodied the energy, creativity, and drive of New York City." Not only are the three-year-'round models amazing, rendered in luxe suede or canvas, but the artist collaborations are truly special. To give New Yorkers a sample of this cool, new collection, Electrolites is offering one lucky Refinery29 reader their own pair (in premium suede or canvas), if they just tell us their fave sneaker story on Facebook. With such bespoke editions, your sneaker-freak friends will certainly be jealous.

The Unexpected Icon: "Africolor"

Filed under:


From Stylist:

Africa, as a continent, has always been known for its bright, vivid colors -- seen in everything from vibrant woven textiles to lively painted buildings to the traditional way of dress. "Africolor," a new exhibition which opened at Danziger Projects in New York last week, focuses on these subjects, as well as its connections with color photography. The show features many works from Italian photographer Daniele Tamagni, as well as other European and African artists.

Spruce Up Your Space With These 14 Pieces Of Extra-Cool Furniture

While settling on a new dress is a decision we can usually make in a matter of minutes, making the same solid choices about the items we fill our homes (beyond our closets) is much tougher. This, of course, might have something to do with the staggering dollar signs attached to couches, chairs, tables, and the like. However, transforming your place into a space that's less shabby and a whole lot more chic doesn't have to completely break the bank. Just take it slow and mix the high with the low, just like you do in your wardrobe. Want some inspiration to get you started? Check out these 14 extra-cool furniture finds, then peruse our plethora of My Style articles on amazing local homes, and get ready to pimp your pad like a pro. stylish furniture

Add another entry to the extensive list of the perils of high heels ? a model was escorted off the runway after taking one too many falls due to her shoes, an Anthony Vaccarello/Giuseppe Zanotti collab. (Fashionista)

Can?t get enough of that fab faux redhead Coco Rocha? Fear not, she?ll be the host of Canada?s Best Beauty Talent starting in April, a new online reality show with competitors wielding makeup brushes and flatirons, instead of sewing machines and measuring tapes. (Huffington Post Canada)

So, like, society might make fun of the way we talk? But, like, women are ahead of the vocal trend curve, and it's totally revolutionaaary. (NYT)
