...Who Is Your Life Peg?
Sarah Kay. Her words are simple but striking, and her love for young people is inspiring.—Marla, Editor in Chief
Eva Chen (former Teen Vogue editor and now editor in chief of Lucky). She has an awesome job and looks like she's having a blast every day! —Steph, Art Director
My life peg is J.K. Rowling. More than being a super successful author, she's just so passionate about everything she does—I'd love to be that way too. :) —Angel, Features Editor
Jennifer Lawrence is the coolest. She's smart, successful, and classy sexy—girl knows exactly how to work her curves. But most of all, she's got a great sense of humor and she never takes herself too seriously. For me, J-Law is the definition of life peg. —Dyan, Assistant Entertainment Editor
Gwyneth Palthrow. She's fit, healthy, married to Chris Martin, friends with Jay-Z, has two adorable kids, and she's an A-list actress who gets to wear designer clothes, how cool is she? —Erin, Web Fashion and Beauty Assistant

You've Got Mail From Kirsten Dunst And Lena Dunham
It's pretty simple, you sign up with your email address here and every Monday starting July 1 (it's still July 1st in the US!), you'll receive an email from personalities like Kirsten Dunst, Lena Dunham, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and more. And you will get one email every Monday until November 11, 2013.
A project by Miranda July, WE THINK ALONE is a form of self-portraiture (selfie!) that has evolved in the way we write letters. In this case, emails. Have you ever noticed how some people tend to be a little more animated online than they are in real life? While they might pepper their iMessages with a few dozen emojis, they can be all :| when they're actually in front of you. With the advent of Facebook and Twitter, privacy has also evolved. What stays private, when are you discreet?

...Can You Imagine If There Were 3 Zayns In One Direction?
We asked these guys who they wanted to be if they were in One Direction and surprise, surprise, all three chose Zayn Malik, the "bad boy from Bradford." Neil says he'd choose Zayn because he likes his hair style, the way he dresses up, and his great voice. We couldn't agree more on all three points. Carlos says Zayn seems like a very fit and fun lad. And Javy didn't even need a reason, the choice was clear enough.
...Style Equation: Sweater + Circle Skirt
It's that time of the year when the rainy weather has started, and coming up with stylish and cute outfits is starting to be quite challenging once again. Not to fret because we've got one fashion combo to the rescue—the pairing of a sweater and circle skirt. It's been a favorite look of ours that we know you're digging too, and it's the perfect cozy yet chic outfit for the upcoming colder and rainy months. Since the circle skirt is still top trending, we suggest you choose the one that suits your style the most and go with a sweater that will match it perfectly! Don't be afraid to try this combination because this skirt design is very flattering on any figure and topping it off with a sweater gives it an effortless elegance.
