Bad-girl jewelry- think spikes, leather cuffs, knuckle- duster rings and the like- is all the rage these days with cool girls everywhere. Influenced by rock ‘n’ roll, science fiction, fantasy art, and hip hop culture, the jewelry line Han Cholo is delivering the bad-girl goods and has become the “it” accessory among young Hollywood fashionistas and celebrities alike. I’m not the kind of girl who can pull off a brass knuckle or tommy gun pendant with any aplomb, so in order to keep up my cool girl status, I am all about layering the Han Cholo Spiked Bangles. Coming in an assortment of colors- gold, silver, rose gold, and gunmetal- the bangles are the perfect way to accessorize a bad girl outfit of leather leggings, tank and platforms… or add a just little edginess to a bohemian baby-doll dress and ankle boots. My favorite of the bangles has to be the rose gold (see, I’m not so great at the bad-girl thing) and also I love the look of layering all four colors or juxtaposing one or more with more feminine accessories, such as tennis or charm bracelets. Just like Sandy in Grease, I suppose all of us sometimes want to flaunt some tough girl style… just some of us prefer our bad-girl look to come in pink.

I have recently become obsessed with dry cleansing my hair. I’ve never been the type of girl to wash her hair everyday… heck, I’ll admit that I’m an every other day kinda girl (and sometimes a day more). My hair is fine and straight as bone, washing it too much takes it from shiny and soft to straw way too fast. However, during the summertime, this every other day routine can get a little, um, sticky. Let’s be real, even if you are an everyday type of girl, busy schedules and summertime heat can make you yearn for a quick freshen up when one isn’t available.Bumble & Bumble Hair Powder has come to my summertime rescue, and I know it can do the same for you. I’ll concede that hair powder may conjure up images of old ladies in wigs, but I promise you the hair powder I am talking about will leave your hair more Gisele Bundchen than Marie Antoinette. This stuff will make your hair look clean and fabulous with extra volume and shine… even better than had you washed it that very day. Just hold the can 10 inches from your hair, spray thoroughly concentrating on oily areas, let dry and brush out. What’s more, it can be used on clean hair to tint (comes in blonde, red, brown, white and black) and style (although you’ll have to apply a styling wax first to get it to stick). So easy! And faster than wash, condition, blow dry, straighten, etc, etc. What are you waiting for?! Perhaps this will make you more like Marie Antoinette… you can have your cake and eat it too.

This season the perfect style swimsuit for most body types is the pin-up girl look.

Today’s pin-up girl isn’t posed. She’s not perfectly manicured, makeup-ed and primped. She’s not innocently provocative, but casually provocative. She’s unknowingly gorgeous, yet very sure of herself. She’s playful and shameless. Being naked clothed, or covered in gumballs is all the same to her. She sees both sunshine and rain and is just fine being in either one. She’s not always happy, nor is she always sad, but she’s beautiful no matter the mood. Thanks to original Matt Schwartz’s Polaroid snapshots that he captured for She Hit Pause Studios, today’s pin-up girl is ours to admire. The images are such true artistic reality that no matter how raw it seems for her to be lying naked alongside a mirror, or how insignificant she seems as her head bobs out of a massive pool of dark water, she’s still virtuous, flawless, robust. Enjoy the dynamic display of Schwartz’s latest collection of today’s pin-up girl in this slideshow and pick up a few prints for contemporary, femme-foward home!

Price: $65.00 each
