put yo hair up

In sticky, sweaty summer heat the last thing you want is your hair on your neck; the very thought of it makes me shudder. Solutions? Throw on a bandana or scarf (top) or a scrunchie.Yes, I said scrunchie. Much to Carrie Bradshaw's chagrin, they're back. American Apparel has tons of your fave '80s hair accesory to choose from. Just make sure the look is effortless, sexy and undone.

My seemingly neverending search for a chic tote that is both durable and affordable has ended (for now, anyway) with the cotton canvas pocket tote by American Apparel (my standby for basics.. I don't know why I didn't check there in the first place). Its large enough to carry all my work stuff and versatile enough to use as a weekend bag.

You probably knew it was only a matter of time before American Apparel launched a line of nail polishes. The 18-shade collection includes hues with names like Dynasty and Downtown L.A. (light mauve and blood red, respectively) and reflects the multitude of colors seen in AA's clothes. The bottles (which look like a drug store polish from the '80s, natch) sell for $6 a pop.
