Zooey Deschanel and Katy Perry Do Share a Striking Resemblance

Zooey Deschanel and Katy Perry They're the spitting image of each other, but thankfully in a very GOOD way! Usually those separated at birth coincidences are pretty darn howlingly funny. But here's one where it's two pretty ladies each with very distinctive personal style... unlike the orange Jersey clones. I never really thought of it, but thanks to UnrealityMag, for spotting Zooey Deschanel and Katy Perry in the same shot, and circumventing any possible confusion other than they both have huge blue eyes and a penchant for prints. photo via unrealitymag

She opens up about when Photoshop retouching or airbrushing is excess and when it honestly makes for a better editorial or commercial photograph. -- S.H. Photoshopped Into Oblivion: the scandal, the controversy, the ethics... Lately there has been much debate and discussion about retouching's perceived effects on society.

Wearable Art For Your Feet by Japanese Shoe Designer Tetsuya Uenobe

In Their Words: An interview with the man who sees an animal on every shoe Back in my early club days one of my most coveted pair of shoes was a pair of Tokio Kumagai black suede pumps with funny, little whiskers jutting out all over. At a time when Japanese designers like Rei Kawakubo for Comme des Garçons and Yohji Yamamoto were the must-have uniform for the downtown art set, Tokio Kumagai designs-- particularly the shoes-- were right in step. Often extraordinary and whimsical, the shoes shared the Japanese minimalist fashion aesthetic of the time that still looks modern. The most iconic being most a pair of mouse flats long before Marc Jacobs turned a rodent into a chic

Wear Socks With Heels, YES You Can Pull It Off

No, You will not look like the tourist in the hiking sandals, promise!

Do you want to look like you’re from New Jersey, here’s a start

I know that's a loaded question... In all honesty, when the email pitch came in, I thought I was looking at a photo of Snooki. Turns out the fake-baked, jett-haired Guidolina is not Snooki from the "Jersey Shore" but Olivia Bois Sharpe from "Jerseylicious". Just like I can barely tell over-tanned, over-boobed, over-botoxed, bleached blondes apart, the same holds true for their East Coast brunette clones... they all look the same to me! Ladies, the more you over do it, the more you look alike. Throw individuality out the window, there seems to be a new stupid trend, Cliché Chic! The state that used to be the butt of bad-driving jokes is now being thrashed about as a style innovator. Ok,

You know your guy friend is playing for the other team when he is as excited about these old movie star dresses as you! If I could live in any other time, I would have to say it would be in the 1950's to 1960 in Rome, on the via Veneto.
