While Rome houses the headquarters of iconic Italian labels Gucci and Fendi, the ancient city is also home to uneven, hard to navigate cobblestone roads that many Italian women teeter and totter down daily in their sky-high heels. If you live in Rome or are planning on visiting and don’t want to ditch your stilettos, there’s no need to start shopping for flats. According to Italy magazine, Mayor Gianni Alemanno plans to smooth many of the city’s sidewalks and streets with new even cobblestones and repave high traffic areas to make them easier for women in heels. The first road to get a makeover is the iconic Via del Corso and construction will begin by the end of this year. Read more »

The Kelly, the PS1, the Speedy: It bags have become so major over the years, that they scarcely even need a designer name attached! We discuss the appeal at length in our Winter 2012 issue, but today, we’re putting these bags to the test: in the battle of It bag supremacy, which comes out on top?

Ciao, Milano! Now, it’s onto Paris. But before we turn our attention from Piazza Oberdan to the Grand Palais, we wanted to share some of our favourite beauty looks from MFW. Here are five we love.
Minx nails at Missoni
A departure from the nude nails seen on Milan runways last season, these custom-printed Minx nail appliqués were applied over an iridescent base. We’re praying that like Missoni for Target, these beauties make it to the masses, too.

New York Magazine’s biannual fashion issue has arrived, and with it came an encouraging industry-wide frenzy about cover model Andrej Pejic. This time around, Pejic is not only receiving attention for his looks but also for what he has to say. It’s kind of momentous, as if a star was born—one that, as Pejic puts it himself, doesn’t get out of bed for less that $50 a day. (A far and ironic cry from Linda Evangelista’s famed similar claim about her $10,000 minimum.)
The androgynous model has been on a rapid rise to fame since Sarah Doukas started marketing him as a woman, Carine Roitfeld styled him in Fendi, and he walked Jean Paul Gaultier’s runway. He embraces his gender-blending look, saying, “It’s not like, ‘Okay, today I want to look like a man, or today I want to look like a woman’; I want to look like me. It just so happens that some of the things I like are feminine.”
What seems to have struck readers positively is Pejic’s amusing personality. He relieves tension with punch lines like, “My whole life is controversy. What can I do? I’m like Britney Spears!” He’s surprisingly hilarious and confident—not to mention, successful—for a 19-year-old.
Pejic is no stranger to controversy. In May, FHM ran a story online that referred to Pejic as a “thing” and later took it down. In the same month, Pejic covered Dossier shirtless, and the magazine got censored at both Barnes & Noble and Borders. So, does the praise Pejic is receiving from New York Magazine mean the mainstream is ready to embrace him as an icon? We’ll have to wait and see. But if his career takes a turn for the worse, he’ll tell you, “I’ll come back with a sex tape…I’d bring in latex, make it really fashion, really artsy.”

Album Art from Winehouse's Back to Black Album
In dreadfully sad news, Amy Winehouse was found dead at her London home on Saturday. The “Rehab” singer was known for her drug abuse and alcoholism, and at times it outshone her exceptional talent. Despite her self-destructive behaviour, Winehouse’s death came as a shock to many. Though family, friends and fans may have known she was in trouble, no one expected her bad habits to catch up with her so quickly. Winehouse died at the age of 27 like fellow musicians Janis Joplin, Kurt Cobain and Jim Morrison.
Winehouse will be remembered not only for her soulful music but also as a fashion icon. Her eclectic vintage-inspired style and signature beehive quickly transitioned to the runway and magazine pages. The singer was a muse to Karl Lagerfeld, who styled models for a Chanel fashion show with her signature thick eyeliner and beehives. Although Winehouse claimed to be clueless about fashion, her influence was felt throughout the industry.
In death, we hope the Grammy winner will be remembered more for her significant contributions to music, fashion and pop culture than for her troubles. Amy Winehouse will be missed but her legacy will live on.
