Lanvin for H&M

From Refinery29: A preview image from the Lanvin for H&M collection was just released, and lord are we thrilled. The models, from left, are Hannelore Knuts, Jane Schmitt, Tati Collitar, and Natasha Poly—all shot by David Sims, and looking like quite the fine bunch of ladies. And with full Lanvin drama, the one-shoulded puff dresses, ruffled LBDs, textured trenches, and tuxedo tops are exactly what we'd hoped Alber Elbaz would diffuse for his H&M collection. We have to wait until November until the full collection of images are released (that's 30 pieces and 15 accessories for women, and 25 pieces and 10 accessories for men), but until then, we can ogle the pieces right here.

Cotton Prices Soar - highest in 140 years

It was the highest level for cotton since cash prices paid to farmers during the Civil War when blockades prevented shipments from leaving the South, said Sharon Johnson, a senior cotton analyst at Penson/FCG.

U.S. cotton futures jumped last Friday (10/15/10) to their highest
level since the U.S. Civil War in the 19th century, then fell
in late trade to end the session down the daily limit.

Taylor Swift

"If I had to describe my style in one word, it would be 'experimental'"

Taylor, we love you, but you are way to pretty and manicured to be called experimental. You do look cute, props to your stylist!
