Rachel zoe

All good things must come to an end. And that includes Rachel Zoe's work relationship with her platinum-blond style associate, Taylor Jacobson. You either loved her or hated her — but you have to admit you loved her wardrobe. I couldn't shut up about her awesome jackets; Chanel, Dries van Noten, Balenciaga, sigh. You may recall I spoke with Rachel at the beginning of this last season of The Rachel Zoe Project and she shared that Taylor has a heart of gold. I'm sure Taylor's leaving Rachel Zoe was melancholy for all parties involved — the two have worked together since January 2005. I know I will miss drooling over her jackets and watching her and Brad's banter.

We caught up with Taylor this week, and though she didn't divulge details about her departure, she has a positive outlook on life — something we seldom see from the show's supposed villain. And, can I just add, Taylor gives Fab favorite Diane Kruger props for having stellar style — great minds . . . Listen up.

What should we expect to see from you in the next year?
I look forward to exploring styling on my own and the new opportunities and experiences it is going to bring.

Who are your go-to designers right now?
 Chris Benz, Alexander Wang, and Prabal Gurung.

Whose style do you admire?
I think Diane Kruger has great style and even more impressive is that she does it herself. To read the rest of the interview and to see a gallery of Taylor on TRZP, read more

The great thing about Twitter is that it gives us all a unique accessibility to celebrities. Take Dita Von Teese, for instance, who shared her favorite beauty items, from nail polish shades to lipstick to her bargain-buy foundation. Also known for her tweeting skills? Rachel Zoe, who brought us her warm-weathered nail polish pick in July. Since I'm a fan of the stylist's quirky personality and impeccable taste, I thought I'd give her Twitter page a look-see to discover what beauty items she's been using as of late — and just to make sure that she's not literally dying. To find out what bodycare items and nail polish shades she's been going bananas for, just read more.

Confession: I'm a total Halloween slacker. Every year I wait until the absolute last minute to think of a costume and then I wind up either frantically buying fairy wings and applying sparkly makeup (which can be cute, like this, but not very original) or being really lazy and wearing my scrub pajamas and going as a doctor (yawn).

This year I resolve to turn over a new leaf -- hey, the fact that I'm writing about this so early in October is a good sign, right? This year I'm going to have a great, well thought-out costume. Why have I decided to make the change? Because I came across these costume ideas that are not only fun, they're easy to do! I don't even have to buy a costume for most of them, doesn't get any better than that in my book! Check them out below, I see some "best costume" awards in our futures …
