Tue, 27 September 2011 2:15PM

Leelee Sobieski has been flying under the radar for what seems like donkey years, Primps, but I’ve got one hell of a good reason why her mug deserves to be planted on PRIMPED this very minute. And that reason is this: Leelee Sobieski attended the 2011 Metropolitan Opera Season opening night performance of Anna Bolena in… more

Milan Fashion Week S/S ’12: Fendi, Jil Sander and Dolce & Gabbana embrace clean, modern skin

Mon, 26 September 2011 12:27PM

Crisp, clear, modern skin never dates. It’s a classic. Why? Well, it looks good on everyone, you see, as it’s natural. It’s not loud, or over the top, yet still manages to command attention for its understated awesomeness.

Wowzers, Primps. Selena Gomez really is turning into a wee style queen. I mean, look at the ravishing lacy black frock she wore to the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards… Stunning? Tick. A little racy?
