Whether they invoke memories of a movie I really enjoyed or introduce me to new artists, I'm a sucker for a good soundtrack. The following is a list of some quality soundtracks from the past few months Read more

Kanye West posed with a Balmain-clad Kim Kardashian at the Belvedere-sponsored premiere of his Cruel Summer in Cannes this evening.

Justin Timberlake took a spin around LA yesterday in his vintage Pontiac GTO. He's been kicking it on the West Coast since launching his latest business venture, HomeMint, at an event in NYC earlier this month. Justin's been focusing on projects outside the studio in recent years, but according to new reports, he's ready to return to music. Justin's reportedly composing the Devil and the Deep Read more

Jay-Z was the center of attention last night at the launch party for the new cognac, D'ussé, at the Top of the Standard. He went to the NYC hotel despite the big playoff game going down between the NY Knicks and the Miami Heat.

That show centers on a Read more

There was a cinematic kind of drama to the Fall 2012 collection of Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti. First, the elegant setting — Avery Fisher Hall, which is home to New York's Philharmonic Orchestra, was built in the '60s and reflects midcentury form in a warm palette of cream, brass, and wood. Cue the orchestral soundtrack, and finally the models, who came up a weirdly chic escalator and walked Read more

Honing in on a cool-girl craftiness (and her own signature style), Whitney Port sent fuzzy sweaters, mixed prints, and pretty florals down the runway this morning for her Fall Whitney Eve collection.
