Oh, Jared Leto, you’re such an iconoclast with your badass skull t-shirts and your fingerless gloves. Wherever do you find such unique and subversive artifacts? Could it be at the teen clothier chain Hot Topic?

Lindsay Lohan had a court date today, and it looks like she’d perhaps planned to go camping at City Hall?. Can of beans in the front pocket, Swiss Army knife in the side pocket, blinged-out Blackberry in the back pocket. Remember: don’t look the bear directly in the eye.

We sincerely hope that Taylor Momsen doesn’t have a stylist, because such a person would really be getting away with doing only half the work: the 17-year-old Pretty Reckless singer has made quite a name for herself as a person who wears only one article of clothing at a time. Bra, but not shirt, shirt but not pants.
Pants, Taylor, they’re called pants! More »

Check out more of Steven’s super silly looks. More »
According to my research, there are two things that 14-year-olds love more than sexting: Justin Bieber and homemade crafts. Luckily, Internet store Etsy.com is full of one-of-a-kind works of art dedicated to the Biebs, leading us to believe that the mom’s of the world need to collectively find a new hobby. May we suggest sexting? More »
Sufjan Stevens‘ latest video for “Too Much” might look like a Lite-Brite set exploded onto a hipster collage, but he’s not the first celebrity to recognize the power of electric colors. From Shakira‘s giant pink veil worn during her Portugal show this weekend to anything worn by Katy Perry or Lady Gaga, you’d be hard-pressed to find a famous person not regressing into a fashion palette favored by tweens in the early 90s.

Back in April, Jezebel posted an article titled “Feathers And Fashion: Native American Is In Style” which pondered the iffy style trends appropriated from a hodgepodge of different tribal cultures. The conclusion?
“All of these cases romanticize Indianness, blur separate traditions (as well as the real and the fake), and some disregard Indian spirituality. So, no, it’s not cute to wear a feather in your hair or carry an Indian rug clutch, it’s thoughtless and insensitive.”
But as Thanksgiving grows nearer, we decided to reopen the issue: More »
If you don’t know about Crushable’s obsession with SpiritHoods, you haven’t been paying attention. The animal-inspired hats with attaching scarves and mittens are the most brilliant accessory to come out of the 21st century, and we just had to know who was behind the clothing-wear that’s cool enough for Ke$ha.

Just like the old expression goes: “It’s Fashion Week somewhere, so there’s always an excuse to post totally batshit insane photos on our blog.” Today, the lucky country is China, where models have been strutting the runways in floral hats, Marilyn Monroe-print gowns, metallic one-piece bathing suits and stuffed iguanas. Enjoy!

Achim Lippoth photographed this series for Kids Wear Magazine. Like, “stuff you’d put on your children.” Seriously, I know these pictures are very “arty” and “beautiful” but I don’t want any of these little pale creatures near me or my loved ones. Then again, maybe it’d be a good way to convince kids to behave. “Stop asking for those Miley Cyrus jeans or the evil sweater fairies will eat you!” More »
A t-shirt in a can? Designer Manel Torres teamed up with particle engineer Paul Luckham to create the world’s first spray-on clothing.
