Laverne Cox bares all and couldn’t be more fabulous! She discussed eating mac and cheese the night before her first nude shoot (for the cover of Allure) on The Cut. Norman Jean Roy shot the stunning images for Allure and they’re not to be missed.

 

DIY Gummies on A Beautiful Mess are my new favourite thing. We’re addicted to wine gums, gummy bears and sugar coated fuzzy peaches at the office and these seem like the perfect alternative to the sale bin at the pharmacy downstairs. I had never even considered being able to make them myself, what a fun treat! Now to find the perfect moulds…

 

This 1971 Shasta Camper Makeover on Design*Sponge will put you in the mood for a little DIY project of your own! Paul and Kim Fuelling made this little dated camper into the perfect space for hosting cocktail parties. Be sure to check it out.

 

Garance Doré asks YES or NO on chipped nail varnish – serious question guys! It’s definitely a grungier look, and I’ll admit to have rocked it in art school when my nails were constantly being brutalized by photo chemicals and print making tools but in my more professional life I’ve managed to keep my manicures pristine. Do you let your manicure chip for a few days before removing it, or take care of it right away? The trend is definitely coming back…

 

Holy Mary, Mother of God photos axed by Instagram and no one is safe from censoring on the internet. Buzzfeed has curated a collection of images of the Virgin Mary breast feeding that have been removed by the social media site. This just keeps getting more ridiculous.

 

The Ey Exhibition by Sonia Delaunay opened at Tate Modern last week and it’s one not to be missed. A key figure in the Parisian Avant-Garde movement, Delaunay’s work celebrated the modern world of movement, technology and urban life. This is the first retrospective of her work ever to be mounted in the UK, and it’s about time. You can check out her colourful oeuvre at Tate Modern until August 9th.
