1. Designers must be the new starlets – both Tory Burch and Georgina Chapman (of Marchesa) are guest-starring on the upcoming season of Gossip Girl. If you’re looking to cop some of the show’s style, we’d recommend starting with a good pair of skinny jeans. [WWD]
2. Jessica Simpson and her hairstylist Ken Paves will star in a new reality show, The Prince of Beauty, in which they travel around asking women about the lengths they’ll go to for beauty. We’ll stay away from celebrities talking about beauty in order to just stick with celebrity-inspired beauty, we think. [People StyleWatch]
3. The tanning bed has been officially declared a carcinogen, but apparently tanning businesses aren’t seeing a drop in customers. We really think the opposite should be true, and we’ve got plenty of great self-tanning advice if you’re looking to make the switch. [NYT]
4. A former Abercrombie & Fitch employee (in Britain) who sued the retailer for being moved to the stockroom once they learned she had a prosthetic armed has won her lawsuit. We’re glad for her, and we have good picks to get preppy duds elsewhere. [BBC]
