A slinky pink dress layered under a white jacket. A crisp white blazer paired with tailored trousers and a smart button-down shirt. A tweedy jacket coupled with a slouchy tee and denim shorts. A silky white dress with swirls of bright yellow. A sheer black maxi dress with a slit up to the thigh. These are just some of the looks that you can find in Mango’s summer 2012 catalog, which is online now and ready to shop. And with Kate Moss posing front and center in the aforementioned looks, it will be pretty hard to resist whipping out your credit card. With that said, you can check out the full catalog now at Mango.com. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

MAC Cosmetics is always launching amazing nail polish colors, but the problem is they are more often than not limited edition hues. Happily, that is about to change. In July, MAC will launch a permanent collection of nail polishes and there will be 30 different shades to choose from, plus a clear polish. The colors, naturally, will run the gamut from neat neutrals like beige and ballerina pink through to bold colors like tangerine and hot pink through to metallic and glitters. In other words, there is a color for everyone and you will never have to worry about it being discontinued. With that said, the permanent collection will be available at stores like Nordstrom and MAC Cosmetics on July 5. Each bottle will retail for $16.

It is no secret that we all have different approaches when it comes to fashion. Some of us like to shop from our own closets, some of us like to splurge on high-end items, some of us like to mix high with low, and some of us fall in between. But no matter how you put together your ensembles in the morning, fresh outfit inspiration never goes astray, which is why we are so excited about our latest Steal Her Style story—it is packed with ideas thanks to Alexa Chung, Chloe Moretz, and Florence Welch.
