9 Things We Love This Week

1. We've rounded up 54 beautiful (and affordable) summer dresses--some priced as low as $20!

2. Find out where to buy January Jones' sultry white dress, Rachel Bilson's perfectly slouchy boyfriend jeans, and Beyonce's edgy military jacket--we tracked down their shopping sources.

3. With all the excitement over Sex and the City 2 this week, we couldn't help but reminisce about our all-time favorite looks from the series (and a few new movie standouts).

Celebrity Dermatologist Stages Haircolor Intervention

My dermatologist Fredric Brandt can really keep a secret (don't even ask about Madonna or any of his other famous reported-to-be-clients--he will say nothing). But he otherwise can and will say anything. At my appointment in his Miami office, he threw up his hands and shrieked, "OH MY GOD, what happened to your skin?!"

My hands flew to my face. Had I broken out? Turned purple?

"Wait--oh, thank goodness, it's just your hair," he said. "Did you go to a new colorist?"

"Um... yeah, I did," I admitted.

See Pictures from J.Crew's Heavenly First-Ever Bridal Boutique

This week, J.Crew opened its first bridal boutique, at 769 Madison Avenue, and it is absolutely dreamy. The space is based on a French salon layout, and every nook and cranny has something special to offer. From the store's exclusive offerings, like sumptuous hand-beaded evening gowns, flirty cocktail dresses made from the finest duchesse satin, and lingerie, to the one-of-a-kind Lulu Frost necklaces and exquisitely crafted Leah C. couture headpieces, the location is jam-packed with lovely treasures.

And it is not just the stock that makes the store so chic. A walk downstairs from the main floor reveals the by-appointment-only showroom that houses the full bridal and bridesmaid collections. Parties can book one of the four private suites located on the floor, each containing two fitting rooms, so they can make decisions as an individual sales specialist pours them champagne. Some of the additional services the store provides include personal shopping to help with wedding-related events, like your rehearsal dinner and your honeymoon, and recommendations to help NYC brides find cakes, flowers, and wedding planners.

Basically, the boutique is a top-notch one-stop-shop for everything bridal. To book an appointment, call 212-824-2500.

4 Memorial Day Weekend Must-Haves

I love Memorial Day weekend. I still get as excited about the extra day off as I did when I was little and the extra day off from school had infinite possibilities: Road trips! Beach parties! BBQs! Pastoral picnics with apple pie!

The holiday, which marks the beginning of summer, is also an excuse to add a few pieces to my closet. Keeping with the all-American feel, I tend to gravitate towards vintagey classics and hits of red and navy (but no flag tees, promise!). Click through for four of my favorite looks.

My Top 5: Bandeau Bikinis

Why does shopping for a swimsuit have to be SO difficult? During my search, I came across a bandeau top that I loved and it simply did not come with a bottom! Unacceptable. We all dread standing in the fitting room (worst lighting ever--how is that helpful?) trying on suit after suit, which is why I've resorted to ordering them online and trying them on in the privacy of my own home. Here are five options in a flattering style that I think you'll love.
