Who knew a paper cut could become a fashion statement?

Now you can adorn yourself with chic band-aids designed by Cynthia Rowley. The limited edition bandages ($10 per tin) look like strips of sequins, gold chains and lace. And it's fashion for a cause -- $1 from each sale will go to Design Ignites Change, an organization to help students design projects that address social issues in their communities.

Want to be in fashion? Try surgery style! Fashion goddess Diane Von Furstenberg, who created the famous "wrap dress" style, has teamed up with the Cleveland Clinic to make hospital gowns!

Her line (yes, not just one, but an entire line of gowns!) will range from a montage of the Cleveland Clinic's diamond logo mixed with the DVF patter, elastic wastbands, wrap-around closures, and even wide V-necks to accomodate chest monitoring and stethescopes.

I want one of those, stat!


Steven Slater Style

Have you been following the story about JetBlue flight attendant Steven Slater? He's the guy who got cursed out by a passenger who got into a little altercation with him about her baggage in the overhead compartment. When the passenger berated Slater with obscenities, he responded by announcing over the plane's PA system, "To the motherf***** who just told me to f*** off, f*** you. I've been in this business 20 years. And that's it, I'm done." He then activated the plane's emergency inflatable slide, grabbed two beers and slid down the chute.

Slater is currently suspended by JetBlue while he awaits trial for charges of criminal mischief, trespassing and reckless endangerment. But in the meantime, a lot of people are trying to help him raise money, since it's likely that at the very least he'll have to reimburse JetBlue for the cost of activating the inflatable emergency slide. So to raise money, several people have started "Slater Swag" -- that you can buy to support his cause... because, who hasn't wanted to totally freak out in a crazy awesome way at work??

OMG. I love these!!! Just in case you ever have the urge to strum a few chords but don't want to carry around your guitar, you may have to get a pair of these fabulous new heels! The musical shoes, designed by Max Kibardin and Hangar, actually play music wirelessly -- amazing!

In case you want to shell out the dough for a pair, you'll have to wait until August, when they are officially revealed at the Dundee Contemporary Arts Opening.
