Sneakerheads and scary things unite in this terrifying photo spread Joseph Ford did for a recent issue of Sneakers magazine. A well-known UK photographer, Ford took the most comfortable shoes on the market and put them in the most uncomfortable settings we can think of. That box full of snakes? We're still shuddering.

Ford paired a cobra with Nikes, a crocodile with Lacoste and a terrifying group of scorpions and spiders for the Asics. The models were especially hungry on this photo shoot, and the real-life crocodile even took a bite out of its prop between photographs.

Fresh off their Barbados vacation, Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake are looking very much love.

On Wednesday night, March 26, the couple was photographed at Los Angeles International Airport after getting home from their week-long holiday in Barbados, X17Online.com. Biel looked fresh-faced and gorgeous while Timberlake kept it cool in a hat and thick-rimmed glasses.

Biel and Timberlake were then spotted engaging in some PDA while outside London's Heathrow Airport on Thursday. Paparazzi snapped photos of the "Truth About Emanuel" star kissing her hubby with her hand on his backside.

The two were in the Caribbean to celebrate the actress' 32nd birthday, E! News reported. They stayed at a villa near the Sandy Lane resort and rented a $1,125-per-day catamaran for some wake boarding.

Woman Finds Her Stolen Facebook Photos In Prostitution Ads (VIDEO)

Dallas Miller is not a prostitute -- but you would certainly have thought otherwise if you'd seen this suggestive ad online over the weekend:

dallas miller

Miller, 21, told ABC affiliate WKRN.com that she absolutely did not create or post that ad on the Web. Instead, she says almost a dozen of her photographs were stolen off her Facebook page and used in prostitution advertisements on the free ad-listing site Backpage.com.

"It's been tough," Miller, who lives in Whites Creek, Tenn., told the news outlet of the experience. "I definitely feel victimized."

Backpage.com has reportedly pulled the ads off its site.

After Miller's story made headlines this week, netizens stepped forward to offer support for the young woman.





Others pointed out how Miller's experience should be a wake-up call to anyone who doesn't takes their online security seriously.

"Protect your FB pics," Trinidadian TV anchor Samantha John tweeted Thursday. "This just goes to show that your face can end up anywhere."

The FBI warns all social media users to always use "high security settings on social networking sites, and be very limited in the personal information you share." For more tips on how to protect yourself online, go to the FBI's website (here).

On a bright day in Azeroth, two warriors came together to pledge their undying love...

Well, actually it was New Hampshire and the warriors were bride and groom Jen and Nick, who made their ultimate fantasy come to life with a World of Warcraft themed wedding. The result: Pure magic.

The nuptials included everything from WoW weaponry to a loot table and Horde and Alliance flags placed at the altar (if you don't get that reference it's okay, you're just not geek enough). But most importantly, Jen, Nick and the entire wedding party looked like they had an awesome time.

Check out their photos below.





According to OffBeat Bride, Jen chose the "Game of Thrones" theme song as her processional music. Yes, we want to be friends with her too!

Troian Bellisario Shares Inspiring Message About True Beauty

Like the rest of us, "Pretty Little Liars" star Troian Bellisario likes getting a compliment every now and again, but the 28-year-old actress also has a great attitude about loving yourself.

On Wednesday, March 26, Bellisario took to Instagram to share an inspirational message with her fans:

So. Getting compliments is wonderful and everyone should feel beautiful in their own skin. But I get my hair and make up done professionally. For a job. That's not beauty. That's make up it's a curling iron and hairspray. What's beautiful is inside you. It's your creativity. It's your intelligence. Your empathy and your kindness to your fellow man. I could care less about being "pretty" or "perfect" and we should all ask ourselves why in our society that is the "highest" and most common compliment we are paying to our female friends. I'm so grateful for your support. And so thrilled to read your words. I love that you love Pll and are kind and supportive to each other. But let's put this to bed... Foundation and a blow dryer do not a woman make. Rock on everyone.




It's not the first time one of the stars of "Pretty Little Liars" has spoken out about unrealistic standards of beauty. Back in December 2013, Ashley Benson slammed a promotional poster for the show featuring the four main characters, claiming it had been overly Photoshopped. Similarly, Benson took to Instagram and posted the poster and wrote:


Saw this floating around....hope it's not the poster. Our faces in this were from 4 years ago.....and we all look ridiculous. Way too much photo shop. We all have flaws. No one looks like this. It's not attractive.

There are few things that have more viral charm than actor Bill Murray and the beer best known for its participation in frat pong tournaments, Pabst Blue Ribbon. What happens when the two combine? Something magical.

Bill Murray played in a golf tournament Thursday, March 27, and wore quite a stunning outfit. The actor posed with one reporter to display his checked PBR pants.




Even better? The actor later revealed that underneath his course–appropriate sweater, he was wearing a "Caddyshack" throwback T–shirt.




Bill Murray may just be the most self-aware (and hilarious) actor in Tinseltown.

Hilary Duff knows blondes have more fun, and she wants in. Or at least so it seems by the new direction she's taken her hair.

The singer and actress posted a photo to Twitter with her platinum new 'do and captioned it "Suuuuper blonde."

"@uppercasey [her friend Casey Miller] murdered my color today 5 hrs. 100+foils #nobiggie," she added.




And it seems this was an at-home job, as Duff's previous tweet suggests:




It is unclear if the 26-year-old brightened her locks for a role or just for kicks.

As a reminder, this was Duff's hue as she was spotted on her way to the gym last Friday, March 21:

Duff is sure to attract many suitors with her golden tresses. She and husband Mike Comrie announced they were splitting last January but have remained good friends. Just last week they were spotted grabbing lunch in Bel Air with their son Luca.

This Bill Cunningham Exhibit Gives Street Style A Whole New Meaning

From the start of Bill Cunningham's career in fashion as milliner to his current status as arguably the most famous street style photographer there is, he has truly evolved into somewhat of a style icon. Focusing his attention on what the person is wearing and not who the person is, he is a genuine sartorially driven artist. But long before bloggers ruled the Internet and social media played an integral role in major events like Fashion Week, the skilled photographer embarked on a journey to capture both the fashion and architectural histories of New York City.

From 1968 to 1976 Cunningham traveled to countless thrift stores and locations on his bicycle in pursuit of the perfect looks for the series. Hundreds of outfits and over 1,000 photographed locations later, the result was a breathtaking photo essay portraying New York in the early 1900s. While Cunningham photographed multiple models, the real star was his dear friend and muse, Editta Sherman -- also known as the "duchess of Carnegie Hall."

The exhibit of his photos, which are currently on display at the New York Historical Society under the name "Facades" through June 15, serves as an exciting look back in New York's history, while at the same time, as a release on the exhibit puts it, "feels timeless."

Check out some of our favorite images from the collection below, and if you're local to NYC, take the time to make your way up there to see them in person. Trust us, they're worth the trip.

Now this is how you do sexy.

Christina Hendricks is widely praised for her role as Joan Holloway on "Mad Men," but along the way she has become a style icon in her own right, demonstrating the proper way to accentuate curves and serving as a role model for real women everywhere.

Now, in an interview and film with The Edit, Net-A-Porter's weekly magazine, the actress plays up both her innocent and more sultry looks, opens up about how she thinks the beloved series will end, and explains why she feels the show resonated so well not just with audiences but with the fashion world as well:

When we came out people were wearing jeans with their thongs out, maybe one of the worst crimes in fashion we've ever had. I think people were craving that tailored, put together sense of style and respect for fashion.


Perfectly said, Ms. Hendricks. And we are forever indebted to you for your part in phasing that trend out.

Head over to NET-A-PORTER to read the entire interview, and take a look at some of our favorite photos from the shoot below.

Lauren Conrad Has Some Simple Yet Brilliant Wedding Advice

Lauren Conrad is basically doing everything right in her life and we can't help but hang on her every word. So when she starts dishing about wedding planning and beauty tips for the Big Day, we're all ears.

Conrad graces the cover of Allure magazine this month and opened up about how she's managing to plan her nuptials with her busy life and busy law-student fiancé William Tell.

"I'll ask him, 'Is this a good time?' I keep a list. So when it's a good time, I'll say, 'OK, just real quick...' And I keep it short. If you don't do it in ten minutes, then you lose him," Conrad said.

And when it is a good time, she only asks about the stuff she knows he'll care about, making the planning more about teamwork than an intensive we-must-do-everything-together stress session.

"I'm glad [Tell] doesn't care about the flowers," Conrad said. "I wanted him to see sketches of the dress, but he said absolutely not. I'm wearing it for him! But if he doesn't want to see it, I don't want to make him. He loves music—that's his life—so he picked the band."

LC also had some wise words when it comes to wedding day beauty: “It's important to look like yourself and do a trial run, so there are no surprises.”

Nick Cannon is earning some serious brownie points from wife, Mariah Carey, after giving her quite the incredible birthday present on Thursday, March 27.

Carey shared a photo of herself with Cannon modeling a sparkling diamond -- an encrusted butterfly bracelet to be exact. "Nick surprised me for 3/27 with a stellar diamond bracelet encrusted with 3 floating butterflies! I'm just happy he's here!!! #familytime #festivity," she captioned the photo.



Cannon must know his now 44–year–old wife pretty well (or at least how to use Google) since Carey loves butterflies enough to have named her sixth studio album after them. Either way, we're just impressed by how many diamonds the couple managed to cram into the photo.

Happy belated, Mariah!

Let Your Underwear Decide Your Look

Just as breakfast is the most important meal of the day, we at The Underwear Expert firmly believe that underwear is the most important article of clothing. A lucky pair of briefs or trunks can set the entire tone and mood for the rest of your outfit, if not day, which is exactly why we decided to put together a full, head-to-toe look inspired by one of our favorite brands, Mack Weldon.

2014-03-28-mackweldoncomplete.jpg

1. Mack Weldon Brief
The "LBD" of men's fashion, no man should be caught without a little black brief in their wardrobe. Classic and versatile, we love Mack Weldon's in specific for its mesh zones that keep you cool, and ultra soft fabric.

2. Levi's 559 Relaxed Straight-Leg Jeans
These briefs were made to pair with denim, and there's no going wrong with Levi's. A laid back fit, and dark wash for a timeless look.

3. Bally Rounded Buckle Belt
We don't need to tell you that a belt is essential.

4. Armani Collezioni Striped Cotton Dress Shirt
Sophisticated and casual. We love this shirt in navy to keep things cool, whether it's happy hour after work or thrown under a sweater to keep cozy on Sunday afternoon.

For the rest of the suggestions on this list, head on over to The Underwear Expert.

Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 V Is Like A 'Facial In A Bottle'

Just knowing that Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are huge fans of Biologique Recherche was all it took for me to give this under-the-radar skincare brand a try. And my face was definitely in need of some TLC after taking a brutal beating this winter.

I've been shamefully walking around with a lot of dead skin cells, and I needed to go beyond my Clarisonic cleansing brush. Enter: Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 V.

This lotion is unlike any other I've come across, as it is penetrates deep into the skin to exfoliate, tone and hydrate. No wonder it's touted as being a "facial in a bottle." Plus, esthetician and owner of Rescue Rittenhouse Spa Danuta Mieloch told me that if I smoothed this onto my skin faithfully I would end up with a glowy complexion like Halle Berry.

Did her claims hold up?

Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 V, biologique-recherche.us.


I've used the P50 V Lotion after washing my face with the Lait U cleanser twice a day for the past month. Saturating a cotton ball with the yellow-hued exfoliator, I then pressed it into my skin to pick up any leftover dirt and debris. (Yeah, it was pretty filthy.)

While the initial tingling sensation (thanks to active ingredients like onion extract and salicylic acid) caught me off guard, I couldn't be more excited about the gradual brightening of my face, neck and décolletage. And I got results so fast, I've cut back on my usage of P50 V Lotion to just nighttime. Because washing my face before bed is what really matters...

Rating: 4 out of 5. Once you get over the slightly scary tingling sensation, you're on your way to some seriously radiant skin.

Kris Jenner Rumored To Pose Nude For Playboy

Like mother like daughter?

Earlier this week, U.K. tabloid The Mirror claimed that reality star and momager Kris Jenner would be following in her daughter Kim Kardashian's footsteps and taking it all off for Playboy magazine. An anonymous source told the paper that at 58, Jenner is in the best shape of her life and is keen to let everyone know it.

No doubt Jenner looks amazing, just check out any of the bikini photos she shared on Instagram (yes, scantily clad Instagram shots are a family tradition among the Kardashian/Jenner clan), but sources tell E! News that Jenner doesn't have plans to pose for the famed men's magazine.

And while Playboy wouldn't comment one way or another when questioned by E!, it seems doubtful that Jenner would be interested in posing nude since she was so uncomfortable with the process when Kim set up a semi-nude photo shoot back in 2007, where Jenner wore just a towel printed with the American flag.

A rep for Jenner has yet to respond for a comment.
