Madonna style

Want an edgy look to your fashion taste this summer/fall? If you want to transition smoothly between seasons and still look like a rock star, try this top from Material Girl (see title link), which is a line developed by Madonna for Macy's. It's just $25!

Obey the fashion rules

If you want a good workout tee that looks good with cargo attire, try the Dream State Top from Obey Clothing (see title link). It's $37 and nice and oversized for loose fitting. The v-neck and little pocket make it look subtly sexy as well, and the HeatherGrey color is so effortless!

Rihanna

I love the hat that Rihanna is wearing in this month's issue of Seventeen magazine. It's a cute green newsboy cap with a little red tassle tied in a bow at the front (see title link). Just like Rihanna, it's fiercely different and she works it! It's the stylist's own, though, so I can't find it!

Shape Up

Get your feet in shape with My Shape-ups, a new line from the Skechers Fitness Group. They burn more calories, tone muscle, and improve posture. The $110 X F - Accellerators in Silver/Hot Pink help you lose weight healthily and are a lace-up toning sneaker (see title link).

Warped Tour

American Rag is going on the Vans Warped Tour this summer! Check tour dates in the Warped issue of Ragged Magazine (see title link).

Skin ID

Want a personalized acne solution for your skin? Neutrogena SkiniD promises to do just that, giving you clearer skin based on your personalized evalution and resulting product combination (see title link).

Under Armour

Under Armour makes the best workout gear, so you can protect your house, your team, or whatever else with all the sweat and broken bones you want, and it will always pay off (see title link).

Work those legs

This dress is by far one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. But you need strong, sexy legs like Leighton Meester's to pull it off! Leighton does a week of great cardio to get herself in shape. And she looked great as a result at Haze Nightclub at CityCenter wearing this Herve Leger Light-Indigo Boatneck Batik Dress. It's ridiculously expensive, at $1110 (see title link), but oh-so-gorgeous!

Nina Dobrev

Nina Dobrev has a rockin' bod...She stays firm and flexible with hot yoga to get those physical juices flowing and mental ones resting, to cut out some craziness! Check her out at the Independent Filmmaker Project Spring Gala in this BCBG Max Azria Satin V-Neck Ruffle Layer dress (see title link).

Gatorade

Gatorade Perform 02 is great to pump you up and give you some carbs and electrolytes which will fuel your muscles and evolve them. Just like Gatorade (see title link)! Put some sodium and potassium into the mix for some replenishment!

Curls

Don't use hot tools for your curling needs. Try the old-fashioned way with pin curls (see title link). Using a Goody Chic Touch Hot Round Brush will be great to help smooth them out, and costs just $6!

Clear skin overnight

Clearasil Ultra Overnight Serum may not necessarily fix everything overnight, but it definitely works with your skin to remove some of that redness around pimples. When you sleep, your skin has time to restore itself, and the non-oily spot treatment fights the acne for it. You'll wake up feeling refreshed and ready for the day ahead (see title link). It'll be visibly clearer and it costs just $9.79.

Good Charlotte fashion

Joel and Benji Madden came out with their own line for American Rag called Mad Picks (see title link)! It's not out till August 25th at Macy's, but it looks amazing already!

Cheap Tee

Here's a cool tee I found from Alloy...for just $20 (see title link), it looks cool for back-to-school.

Olsenboye

The Olsenboye graphic tee called London Rocks is such a cheap addition to your wardrobe this summer at JCPenney (see title link). For $14.99, the embellished print will have you rocking a round neck and the short sleeves will keep you cool as a cucumber. It's washable, too, and imported.

Violet fever

I found a glamorous M. Haskell bracelet that is a beautiful violet color. It's just $24, so pick yours up today (see title link).

Jeans in size P!

Macy's is my favorite place to shop for jeans. I noticed they carry a great petite collection, too! Lots of denim with short inseams so you don't have to keep rolling up the pant legs. The Calvin Klein Jeans Skinny Jean style caught my eye (see title link). The rinse color is great and, although they cost $50, they're on sale for just $40 right now on the brand website. As you can see, they sit right below the waist, and the dark shade slims you out. The thigh fits great, too. Normal 5-pocket styling, of course, as well as the classic Calvin Klein Jeans omega detail on the back pockets. Imported from Cambodia and washable.

Rebecca Beeson

This shirt from Rebecca Beeson is gorgeous (see title link). The San Francisco-based designer has stores carrying her wares nationwide, and this one is pretty, especially for girls with a curvy butt, since this will be nice and form-fitting for your upper half!

Mudd

I hear jeggings are the new it item of clothing now. I hate the name, but they do look pretty cool if worn the correct way. I found these Mudd Skinny Jeggings for just $21.99 at Kohl's (on sale from $40). The heavy-tint denim legging has a great dark gray/blue/black wash that gives you an edge AND keeps you slim for a stunning silhouette. They look well-worn, too, so you don't look uptight. The front pockets are faux, even! Low rise is great for the modern teenager, but the strechiness keeps you comfortable.

Candie's by Britney?

I initially saw the Candie's print ad displaying Britney Spears and thought it was some sort of joke. When I read it and realized that Britney was designing for them I was horrified. But I have to admit, the girl's got (designing) taste. The limited edition collection has apparel, accessories, and handbags. I particularly loved this Candie's Designed by Britney Silver-Tone Floral Zipper Bib Necklace, which is on sale from $28 to $19.60 (see title link) only at Kohl's. It's far from ordinary and is made from gathered fabric. Looks great with an embellished top, according to the official online page (see title link), and the black ribbon tie customizes the fit (it's 34 inches total)

Train yourself

For the ultimate quick fix in fitness shoes, try the Nike Air Max Trainer One Women's Training Shoe, with DiamondFLX technology to get your muscles to work the way they're supposed to. Your feet will be moving more naturally and you'll see results fast once you start doing all those squats, lunges and classes. Fit into those jeans faster! It works if you do! Just $85 (see title link). Don't feel scared to change up your workouts. It's flexible and durable. Lightweight support. The impact is taken at the heel and increases the range of motion. The rubber pods give you enhanced traction on many surfaces.

Splat!

Want a wild new-look that you can remove anytime? Try Splat Clip-In Hair Extensions, just $6.99 (see title link). The True Love (Pink) shade is my favorite, since it's rebellious and extreme, without being over-the-top and still keeping its shocking, expressive, BEAUTIFUL quality.

L'Oreal Paris!

Frieda Pinto is the new model for L'Oreal Paris' Deep Facial Cleanser from its Go 360 Clean collection. It's a daily pore-by-pore process that comes with a Scrublet so you can pour it on it and shrink your pores. It's super-soft so you won't feel irritated. Buy some now for just $6.99 (see title link).

Go fresh

I thought I'd found deodorants that smelled real rather than chemically pleasant, but that was before I found Dove Ultimate go fresh Revive Deodorant (see title link). It's got an amazing Pomegranate and Lemon Verbana scent which will exhilarate you and make you feel clean all day. Lasts 24-hours for great protection.

MK+A shoes

The Olsenboye Maddie shoe is good for back-to-school, but I like it now during the summer. You know, on a Monday morning where it's hard to get yourself in the mood to be all business. It's just $35 and looks completely vintage for that cover-of-Vogue feel. JCPenney calls it a "lace-up love affair." The fabric lining is practical and light. Make sure to get it in Black, though!

Stain those lips

Maybelline New Color Sensational Lipstain in Wink of Pink is an amazing, subtle makeup piece. Kemp, the model, looks amazing in it in the print ads (see title link)!

Temporary tattoo

Want a unique way to look cute at the beach? Put a heart-shaped sticker on your stomach so you have a tan tattoo (see title link)!

See the future

Do you believe in fate and/or astrology? If you're a Gemini, you were supposed to spend one-on-one time with a longtime best friend (see title link). You're supposed to have a blast doing it, too!

Trauma-rama

Embarrassing moments are humiliating, but it's fun to share anonymous ones, right? I read one about a girl who was jogging and saw her crush in front of her. Since they were both wearing iPods she jogged faster to catch up with him and get his attention, but when she tapped him on the shoulder she fell headfirst into the pavement as he turned around! After all those scrapes she had to go home, while he kept jogging (see title link)! Falling hard, as they say!
