Reader Style Friday: Karen C
We've got another beautiful Karen on All the Tall things ... and she's working a sophisticated monochrome look in her fifties-style frock. "I am 5'10"³ tall and have always had problems purchasing clothes that are long enough not only in length but in the body (waist under my bust etc) I live in Cheshire and work as a social worker so shopping time in limited. The dress in the photo was actually purchased online from Ebay and the length was perfect. Everyone commented on it and it only cost me £29.99 when...

"More Than War and Sports"
The Whitney American Art Award gala attracted collectors, artists, and admirers alike to a lofty far west Chelsea venue last night. "I'm not artistic. Well, you could say my art is on the tennis court," John McEnroe told Style.com. The tennis ace chatted with Peter M. Brant , who was one of the honorees of the evening, before he did a quick browse of the work up for sale. One memorable digital print of a dollhouse landscape by James Casebere was tagged at $25,000. "I do love and collect art," McEnroe...

PHOTOS: Whoopi Goldberg Wore The Best Shoes To Meet The President
What kind of shoes would you wear to meet the president? We might try some pointed toe flats or kitten heels a la Michelle Obama or strap on a pair on stilettos (you know, because President Obama is so freakin' tall). But Whoopi Goldberg being the wild shoe lover she is , showed up for Obama's taping of "The View" looking like she'd just stepped in gum. For real. There was fake gum on her shoes. Thanks to Gizmodo , we realized that Whoopi was wearing a pair of heeled sneakers created by Kobi Levi , who...

At the NBC upfront presentation in New York this week, Macpherson told The Huffington Post that there could be some changes when the show returns for a Season 2 .

Sheer Madness: Charlize Theron And Kristen Stewart Play The Matching Game
Sure, we may try to laugh it off, but deep down inside we're pretty devastated when we're at a soirA©e and suddenly a "she stole my look" moment rears its ugly head. So, we can only imagine how Charlize Theron and Kristen Stewart felt when they both arrived at the Snow White And The Huntsman premiere donning crazy-similar gowns (uh oh!). Maybe it was the movie's dark theme that inspired both gals to opt for long, sheer black dresses - or maybe they planned it. Who knows. We'll probably never get to the...

Tutus and Bling
At last night's American Ballet Theatre gala, some guests went for the dancing, others for the outfits. "I wish we could make ballerina gear everyday gear," said the TV host Wendy Williams , who was clad in a custom red gown with a bustier top by the House of Execution. "Everything good starts with crinoline." Rachel Roy , walking the red carpet in a tea-length skirt with tulle underlining, was of a like mind. "My daughter Tallulah picked it out; it was her birthday today," said the designer, holding the...

PHOTOS: Jennifer Lopez Aces A Risky Look
A dangerously plunging neckline, a sheer skirt, a billowing slit -- Jennifer Lopez 's dress at the "What To Expect When You're Expecting" premiere had all sorts of liabilities. But at the end of the day, girl looked good . Sometimes that's all there is to it. Lopez turned up with her "What To Expect" cast mates, including Cameron Diaz, Brooklyn Decker, Elizabeth Banks, Anna Kendrick and Chace Crawford, for the Los Angeles red carpet. A high-wattage crowd, for sure, but J.Lo upped the glam quotient in a...

PHOTOS: Over-The-Knee Boots... For Mother's Day?
While we've never been huge "Grey's Anatomy" fans, we have recently come to appreciate Katherine Heigl's fashion sense. She took a colorful cue from the Duchess of Cambridge with her pink skinnies and she looked rather Marilyn Monroe-ish while out last week . But the actress' Mother's Day outfit was far from on-trend -- in fact, it was a total '60s throwback. Out in Los Feliz to celebrate Mother's Day with her husband, Josh Kelley, and their daughters, Katherine wore a short white, black and pink shift...

PHOTOS: Do Tattoos Belong In Fashion Shoots?
As far as accessories go, tattoos are a fairly omnipresent one. By some accounts, at least 15 percent of Americans boast some body ink ( including congress members !). So why are there so few tattoos in fashion? The thought occurred to us as we gazed at Vogue Germany 's June 2012 cover , which features Carolyn Murphy and her oversized upper thigh tattoo. The design is of a koi fish, one Murphy has shown off several times in the likes of Vogue . But a large tattoo like Murphy's is a rare sight. When Megan...

WATCH: A Video Guide To Hipsterdom
The term "hipster" might have been mainstreamed in part by Brooklyn resident Robert Lanham's 2003 book, " The Hipster Handbook ," but the term has a long history, with many attempts made to define it over the years. "Though the irony-sporting, status quo - abhorring, plaid-clad denizens of Williamsburg are a distinctly modern species, the hipster as a genus has its roots in the 1930s and '40s," Dan Fletcher wrote in a 2009 article for Time . "The name itself was coined after the jazz age, when hip arose to...

Backyard BBQ
When I say it was beautiful this past weekend, I mean it was GORG! The absolute perfect time to have a barbeque with my friends. Now, being the first one of the season, I had to put a little more effort into it. No flip-flops, shorts and tanks (although they are on thier way out). I started it off with a bang, boom, pow! I knew I wanted to wear this skirt from Long Tall Sally . It's amazing. So amazing, I did a review on it. Watch it por favor. I kept it simple with a neutral belt and Target tank...
