Marc Jacobs Strips Nude


Marc Jacobs is not only a world-renown model but he also serves as the model for his latest fragrance, Bang. In the skin-bearing campaign ad, Jacobs strips nude with a strategically placed bottle of the fragrance covering his unmentionables while laying on a silver bed. The ad is racy yet artistic as it exemplifies the arts meeting art. "Once I agreed to be the model, I couldn't see what I would wear to express this. We tried it with clothes, but it didn't work. Then Juergen [Teller, who shot the campaign] had the idea for the silver Mylar, and it all came together," Jacobs said.

Sally Hansen's Guiness World Record Attempt


Sally Hansen sought to break the Guinness World Record this week for the most amount of nails shaped and polished in one day. In efforts to support a good cause, proceeds will benefit DKMS, a bone marrow donor organization. According to stylelist.com, “everyone who attends the manicure-fest will get the opportunity to get ’swabbed’ — which entails a simple swipe inside the cheek to help DKMS find donor matches for patients with life-threatening diseases like leukemia and blood cancer.” Manicurists were on duty at the Los Angeles Central Courtyard Hollywood & Highland Center from 9am to 8pm giving complimentary manicures with Sally Hansen’s Complete Salon Manicure polish.
