- News surfaced this past week that Chord Overstreet would not have his contract renewed for a third season of the popular hit show Glee. Chord took to his Twitter to comment on the news, declaring them as "too bad" but added that summer is a time for fresh starts... And he is starting fresh alright!
Yesterday, he was spotted shopping in London's trendy Nottin Hill Gate area together with Julia Robert's niece Emma Roberts! The two of them have been linked together since April, but this is the first time they have actually been spotted out in public. They make a pretty cute couple, right?

- Lately it’s as if fashion’s in a stage where the most seemingly offensive combos are, well, the most appealing and surprisingly refreshing: fanny packs, feathers, cracked nail polish. The initial “what the h-e-double hockey sticks” moment passes, and we find ourselves inevitably embracing all that is unique…and odd. Human hair glasses, barbie-doll head necklaces, my little punk pony…wait, rewind. Don’t worry—our eyebrows are still raised at that list too. But that doesn’t stop us from letting you decide whether or not these things are a fashion do, or a fashion dump. Let the wackiness ensue.
Human Hair Glasses
After we got over the shock value that the words “human hair” and “glasses” have together, we realized the frames themselves are pretty trendy and actually super cool. Woven with human hair, the glasses are 100% biodegradable, but we all know finding someone else’s hair on you is never pleasant. Would you ever be able to get over that fear and rock these shades? Learn about the collection here.

Last night Azzedine Alaïa debuted his first couture collection—in fact, it’s the first time the designer’s shown anything on the official fashion calendar in over eight years. Though he usually stages small presentations in his atelier when he feels like it, Alaïa presented a proper collection on an all white runway for a teeny tiny audience including France’s Minister of Culture, Frederic Mitterand. Vanessa Friedman writes that the collection of impeccable wool coats and zipped up gowns elevates Alaïa from fashion’s favorite designer to “national treasure” and Suzy Menkes says, “The collection was less about silhouette than about how much was packed between the tracery of lines: tufts like errant weeds on the woolen surface of a skirt; tiny craters woven into a coat at the hipline; textures that included dense curly fur or gleaming crocodile. At the end of the show came a latticework dress where suede, velvet and silken ribbons were fused artfully together.” Following Alaïa’s ten minute standing ovation Mitterand said, “Designers all have a world—but Alaïa has a universe.” Click here to see the rest of couture.

- It's the end of an era! A decade has passed since the first ever Harry Potter movie premiered on November 4th 2001. JK Rowling's brilliant books and movie adaptions have entertained people all over the world, and even though they will continue to do so, this is the one and only big finale. The world premiere of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" was held at Trafalgar Square in London today (July 7th) and over 18 000 excited fans showed up to show their support, catch a glimpse of the actors and take farewell of their favorite saga. Watch it all go down in the gallery above!

OPI never ceases to amaze. They put out line after line of nail polish and they still manage to find untapped colors and shades. We don’t know how they do it, but we’re glad they do (shatter nail polish? How clever!). Now they’ve released another collection of fun shades in their newest line, ‘Nice Stems.’ Let’s take a gander at the tones in this floral assortment.

- Former Jonas Brother member Nick Jonas played an acoustic set at the Westfield shopping Centre in California the other day. Even though the Jonas Brothers' glory days may be over, there was still one really excited fan who gushed at every word that came out of his mouth! His girlfriend Delta Goodrem!
Delta is an Australian singer who was previously together with Westlife member Brian McFadden for 7 years. However they broke up last year, and merely 2 months later she got together with Nick. These last couple of months she has spent in the studio with Nick, helping him write and record songs for his new solo album. Sound like a perfect match to you? Well, almost... Delta is actually 8 years Nick's senior! But hey, true love has no age limitations right?

- We always love ourselves some good street style inspiration, specially in the summer when celebrities throw together such inspiring mixes of denim, cute girly dresses, boho pieces and men's fashion! Check out some of the best looks from the streets this past week!

They’re so bad, they’re good, and although they’re often coined as “trashy” TV, we’re brave enough to fess up and say: we’re addicted to reality TV. Hookups, girl fights, crying, pranks, and backstabbing are nothing out of the ordinary in some of the most popular reality shows out there today. Networks like MTV, E! and VH1 have us hooked to shows like Celebrity Rehab (who doesn’t love Dr. Drew?), Real World, The Bachelorette, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Jersey Shore, and The Challenge Cutthroat,the list goes on (come on…who can say they didn’t watch this past seasons Real World: Las Vegas? We couldn’t believe Dustin had the hidden past that he did!).

- Something that we don't often see, (but that we'd like to see more of) is an outing of one of the Olsen sisters. They always give us such great fashion inspiration, as they happen to be some sort of fashion chameleons who just automatically know all of the season trends before they happen. We spotted Mary-Kate Olsen arriving at her Manhattan Hotel yesterday dressed in an abstract-striped sweater, dark jeans, black boots and over-sized black bag and all we have to say is - HOT!

- This week's Dream Suite features a truly dreamy suite!
ZIVYLE, who has been on Stardoll since 2008, has amassed all of the suite rooms, Penthouse, and Beach Villa, and has definitely put a lot of work into all of them! ZIVYLE has made a space that's both clever and cosmopolitan, and uses every inch of space in each room.
Usually I have a favorite room, but this time I can't decide. Take a look, after the jump and then visit ZIVYLE's suite today!
