Michelle Obama’s Brow Got a Makeover: A medical procedure would be too risky for someone as constantly photographed as First Lady Michelle Obama. So, how do you keep the signs aging at bay? It turns out, eyebrows are the key. Over the past four years, FLOTUS has been meticulously grooming and re-shaping her eyebrows, helping to shed, and possibly reverse, any marks of age. “A well groomed brow is like an instant eye lift,” Lisa Potter-Dixon, head make-up and trend artist for Benefit, told the Telegraph. “The First Lady Michelle Obama has been seen with this reinvented, boyish brow and rightly so. Her fuller-looking, groomed brow opens the eyes and makes her look so much younger.” [Telegraph]

Proenza Schouler Takes Over Le Bon Marché: For a new retrospective, design duo Jack Mccollough and Lazaro Hernandez are taking over the ground floor of the French department store's Left Bank outpost in Paris. Pulling from their archive, the Proenza Schouler designers will display looks from the past twelve years of their collections along with video installations. “For us, our collections are so autobiographical,” McCollough told The New York Times. “Every collection represents six months of our life,” Hernandez said. “We could probably look back at every look and tell you what we were doing at that time." The exhibition will be on display through March 22. [The New York Times]

Kate Moss Goes Nude for Lui Magazine: She may have just turned 40, but the international model is proving that she’s not leaving the industry anytime soon. Photographed by Terry Richardson, Moss will appear on the cover of the French men’s magazine in a photograph that was inspired by the publication's 1973 cover featuring Australian actress Romy Schneider.
