Table of contents for February 2013 in Harper's Bazaar

This season's choice accessories are all about heavy metal, with shiny hues and chrome details popping up everywhere (page 114). As for color combos you'll want to try, we've assembled a collection of pinks and corals as a fresh duo (page 92) and shimmering golds and blues for maximum opulence (page 94). Plus, new ladylike extras prove that everything is coming up roses (page 82). Shop like an editor with Bazaar.com's site director, Joyann King, who shares her must-have list for the months ahead (page 78). And explore the best bang-for-your-buck buys in "The Well-Spent Dollar" (page 96), a vintage Bazaar column we've resurrected and updated for today's fashion-forward (and shop-smart) woman. Want to make a statement for spring? Stand out in high-contrast mod black and white (page 172), or…

On the concert stage or the red carpet, Jennifer Lopez radiates glamour. "I love all things sparkly," she says, like the yellow Balmain minidress she wore for her Bazaar shoot, and "silver and gold nail polishes." For a wardrobe bold enough to match her confidence, Jennifer turns to Christian Louboutin, Zuhair Murad, Rick Owens, Valentino, Chanel, and Tom Ford. But she will forever be linked with Versace. "I'll never forget the Versace moment," she says of the deep-V palm-print dress she wore to the Grammy Awards in 2000. As for beauty, Jennifer prefers L'Oréal Paris products ("especially Voluminous False Fiber Lashes mascara") and a naturally sexy look. (Her go-to lip? ChapStick.) On her constant travels, she always finds time to shop. Milan's 10 Corso Como is her favorite boutique, and…

I became as clear as black and white (and a smidge of navy) to me last fall during New York's Spring 2013 collections. I was attending a breakfast at Lincoln Center, and while nibbling on a croissant, I looked out the window, mesmerized by the parade of fashion editors. They were prancing past in such a hodgepodge of colors and prints and textures, the effect was almost dizzying. Then I focused back on my breakfast mates, who stood out dressed in black and navy. They looked sleek and confident. And strangely cutting-edge. Strangely because when was the last time that wearing black was considered fashion forward? The answer is now. Some of the most stellar collections this season—Céline, Lanvin, Alexander Wang, Calvin Klein, Narciso Rodriguez—were almost singularly limited to a…

JOAN SMALLS PUERTO RICO HAUTE HOTEL: This winter the Ritz-Carlton opened a superluxe Reserve property, Dorado Beach, on three miles of beachfront a half hour from San Juan. Model Joan Smalls shares her favorite nearby haunts. SIGHTS: I love walking around Old San Juan and visiting El Morro Fort. And El Yunque rain forest near Luquillo is so spectacular, you can hike to the waterfalls and become one with nature. I also go to the coffee plantation, Hacienda Buena Vista, in Ponce. Coffee from Puerto Rico is really good! EAT: The Parrot Club in Old San Juan for mofongo, one of my favorite dishes. DOUTZEN KROES AMSTERDAM HAUTE HOTEL: Located on the scenic Prince's Canal, the new Andaz hotel is an ideal base for exploring Amsterdam. Model Doutzen Kroes tells…

PISCES FEBRUARY 20–MARCH 20 Because you feel compelled to speak your mind in certain situations, you may be afraid of reprisals this month, but those concerned are too sophisticated to bear a grudge. Remember that when the truth is being sought, you can't deliver anything less. MOTTO OF THE MONTH: No medicine provides a cure for hatred. ARIES MARCH 21–APRIL 20 Renewed hope will arrive along with encouraging news about a long-held ambition or aspiration. However, be sure to take into account the restraints imposed by those who think they can run the show. Being prepared is everything. MOTTO OF THE MONTH: If you climb up a tree, you must climb down the same one. TAURUS APRIL 21–MAY 21 Anyone who warns you not to speak too highly of your…

TRIED & TESTED We love L'Oréal Paris Colour Caresse Shine Stain, and so does model Lara Stone, the brand's newest ambassador. She tells Bazaar, "I'm addicted. It goes on like a gloss but stays put for hours."

My favorite story about Valentine's Day goes like this: One very beautiful Hollywood wife—married to a man 20 years older than she—is having an affair with a hunky young actor who's just hit it big on a TV show. Valentine's Day is approaching, and both men want to buy her something substantial. "An important piece of jewelry," offers her husband, fired up with Viagra. "Whatever you want," says her young lover, fired up with testosterone. The Hollywood wife thinks about this. Surely she has been presented with an opportunity to score big-time? Advantage must be taken, so she visits a fancy jeweler, picks out an exquisite yellow diamond cocktail ring, and proposes to the jeweler a deal: Her husband buys the ring for her, paying full price. Then her boyfriend…

I often think about the people I most admire in the fashion industry, and every time I remember the late Jean-Louis Dumas, the executive chairman of Hermès. Like so many others, I've always desired everything the company has dreamed up: In the Hermès world, each piece is destined to become an icon. One of my fondest memories of Jean-Louis was when Hermès celebrated the year of the child. I like to believe it's never too late for a happy childhood, and Hermès keeps that sense of wonderment alive. Enter Jean-Louis's son, Pierre-Alexis, the subject of a profile in this month's issue, who has assumed creative direction of the brand with great aplomb. When I first met him, he walked into the room bearing a gift, jam made of fruit from…

Bazaar.com site director Joyann King shares her must-haves I love the prismic look of this silver-and-enamel tiered necklace from Bottega Veneta's latest jewelry collection. The combination of delicate and strong elements hits just the right note (1). The jean jacket is having a renaissance, and Rag & Bone's cool leather-sleeved version is a great update of my old denim standby (2). After a year of red-lip overload, I'm keen for a change. My new go-to hue is officially electric pink, a.k.a. Shiseido Perfect Rouge Lipstick in Fuchsia (3). I'm never without sunglasses, and this mod pair by Illesteva will put me in a groovy mood on my way out the door (4). I'm not sure which is cuter, J. W. Anderson himself or his way with colorful graphic knits. This…

WHILE THE REST OF THE WORLD is adjusting to a new year on the calendar, the fashion industry is adjusting to what seems like a whole new generation. The year 2012 was one of seismic change at some of the biggest brands: Hedi Slimane in at Saint Laurent Paris, as it shall now be known; Nicolas Ghesquière out at Balenciaga and Alexander Wang in. As we all remember, the first to switch driving seats at a major label was Raf Simons. His final show for Jil Sander, which left many of my coldhearted editor friends weeping (I didn't know they could do that!), paved the way for his new gig at the helm of Dior. Simons's debut was a well-received couture show last summer, and I've thoroughly enjoyed watching his…

The Paris-based street-style starlet (and Swiss-born stylist) gives us a serious case of sartorial envy. Here, Bazaar gets the lowdown on her brand of offbeat elegance. FIRST DESIGNER ITEM YOU EVER BOUGHT? Miu Miu pink plastic heels. FAVORITE DESIGNERS? I love old Jean Paul Gaultier, weird things from Miguel Adrover, and new stuff from Balenciaga.

It's exactly a week after the election, and Megyn Kelly is in her office at Fox News Channel in Midtown Manhattan, a smallish space in which the personal effects are limited to a handful of family photos and a rack of designer shoes. Having emerged from hair and makeup perfectly coiffed and heavily lashed, Kelly is busy preparing for the next installment of the her top-rated program, America Live. On this particular afternoon, the show will focus almost entirely on David Petraeus's abrupt resignation as director of the CIA in the wake of revelations involving his extramarital affair. Among the topics are the military's actual laws against adultery (who knew?) and why the attorney general didn't tell the president what was up. "And here we thought the week after the…

Five new face-savers promise results with zero irritation FIRM AND SMOOTH If you're looking for an all-in-one antiaging powerhouse, consider Clarins Double Serum Complete Age Control Concentrate ($85). Packed with 20 pure plant extracts and Survixyl IS (a high-tech peptide), this silky serum claims to boost collagen production by 915 percent, which is on par with prescription-only superhero Retin-A. INCREASE ELASTICITY In your 20s, your skin starts to lose the supporting elastin fibers that help keep it looking taut. The upshot: sagging, wrinkles, and enlarged pores. To combat this, Kiehl's Powerful Wrinkle Reducing Cream ($50) contains copper and calcium PCAs to improve elasticity by up to 32 percent. Smoothness ensues at every age. SEAL IN MOISTURE Think of Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Face Cream ($42) as the velvety-soft equivalent of…

In glorious motion, Audrey Hepburn races past Winged Victory and down the Louvre's magnificent Daru staircase in a strapless Givenchy gown, her silk wrap billowing behind her. Like a rare and delicate bird about to take flight, with her white-gloved arms stretched overhead, she shouts, "Take the picture! Take the picture!" Freeze frame, et voilà! This iconic fashion-muse-meets-movie moment is captured in Funny Face, the 1957 musical based loosely on photographer Richard Avedon's early career. For 20 years, Avedon was the principal fashion photographer for Harper's Bazaar under its wildly eccentric fashion editor, Diana Vreeland. In the film, the magazine is Quality, a thinly veiled Bazaar; the photographer's name is Dick Avery; and the young model who inspires him is played by Hepburn, who was Avedon's real-life muse. Art imitates…

When Pierre-Alexis Dumas, the chief artistic director of Hermès, was growing up in Paris, he was determined not to join the prestigious family firm headed by his father, Jean-Louis. He dreamed of being an inventor. "So be it—be an inventor," Dumas recalls his father instructing him. "I had no desire to join Hermès. It took me a long time to mature to the idea." Dumas came to the U.S. to study at Brown University, graduating in 1991 with a degree in visual art, then went to work for an Italian fabric manufacturer. There he had an epiphany. "I loved everything I was doing," he says. "I was designing patterns for ties, for companies like Versace, for fashion fabrics. And I suddenly recognized the link between the art I'd studied at…

FANCY FEET Tod's dazzling couture loafers are hot to trot A year ago, the Italian luxury-leather-goods company Tod's introduced a couture take on its iconic D-Bag collection. The bespoke bags were serious business, seducing celebrity fans like Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, Nicole Kidman, and Charlize Theron, to name a few. This season the bags are back, and with them a fleet of loafers made from the same fine materials. The theme of this year's collection? Rock Princess. Hand-embroidered with crystals in a choice of six shapes, the calfskin shoes can also be customized by color. (The fluorescent-enhanced version, shown here, is a highlight.) These stone-studded slippers, made in Italy by expert artisans, are the pride of the company—and soon to be the star of your closet!…

Roberto Cavalli in 24 hours The designer's life by the numbers 20 to 35 tweets a day 10 drops of Roberto Cavalli fragrance at bedtime; no pajamas 1 helicopter 9:00 A.M. I wake up at nine o'clock. I never, never wear pajamas in my life. I always feel I cannot sleep when I am dressed. I have to be naked. I am like Marilyn Monroe: She said five drops of Chanel No. 5; I tell you 10 drops of Roberto Cavalli fragrance. I'll tell you something else. A few times in my life when I went to the hospital for some reason, very silly, it was complicated for me, because they asked me to wear pajamas. When I wake up, my German shepherd, Lupo, jumps on the bed and starts…

NEW MOD Sharp black and white is the statement for spring, with designers like Stella McCartney and Marc Jacobs going for the bold.      • Stripes are in this season, but they're not your mother's pinstripes. Bigger is better as far as we're concerned—walk a wide line with high-waisted Balmain pants or a graphic Dolce & Gabbana sundress.      • Break it up with a two-tone look by Jil Sander or Chanel. Chiaroscuro styles are sure to turn heads. WHITE LIGHT White, that warm-weather staple, is going strong this season, with styles that ranged from lacy sweet at Valentino to downtown tough at Alexander Wang. Embrace the blank slate with the right white.      • Blanc on blanc is a surefire recipe for a superchic look, as evidenced by the pairings at Carolina…

TATE LIVERPOOL returns to the '70s with "Glam! The Performance of Style," a multimedia exhibition featuring works by David Hockney and glitter's front man, David Bowie. London's National Portrait Gallery unveils "Man Ray Portraits." And the work of painter Aleah Chapin, the first American woman to win the National Portrait Gallery's BP Portrait Award, is at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter. TREASURE HUNT The crown jewel of the antiquing season, the Original Miami Beach Antique Show (January 31 through February 4), includes Art Deco finds like this Ayre & Taylor diamond bracelet. QUEEN BEE Finally, Beyoncé indulges our craving for an inside look at her colossal existence, with a self-directed documentary that debuts February 16 on HBO. (She shot some of the footage on her laptop.) WEATHERMAN By…

MY MOTHER NEVER EXPLAINED STYLE; you just saw how she did things. She collected T-shirts, for example, cute little ones that she would wear with scarves. She hated high heels—they make you look like a prostitute, she would say. She liked a flat, flat shoe, not even a half-inch heel. And when we played tennis, she would always make me put a sweater on afterward. It could be 100 degrees out and we would still have on our cardigans. She was just of a completely different generation: To her, an informal Thanksgiving was a skirt and cashmere sweater. And until she was much older, flying somewhere meant wearing a skirt. When I was little I hated to get dressed, and my mother and I would fight about it. My father…

RED POWER POUTS Sophisticated rouge hues on the runways at Prada, Missoni, and Jonathan Saunders ranged from orange-based to wine-infused. Anything goes this spring, whether you prefer a high-shine or a matte finish. Keep the color from bleeding by first lining your lips with a pencil. 1. Bobbi Brown Creamy Matte Lip Color in Heart, $24 2. Clarins Rouge Eclat Lipstick in Juicy Clementine, $24.50 KTZ for Linda Farrow Projects sunglasses, $355. lindafarrow gallery.com. CHIC MATTE LIPS Notice-me lips once again stand out for spring, but this time they're often opaque and matte. "The moment shine is added to the lip, it becomes more girly," says makeup pro Lucia Pieroni, who created the pink pouts at Giles. To get the look, dab your lips with concealer before applying liner and…

GET KATE'S GLOW OF HOLLYWOOD beauties, Kate Bosworth is known to cause serious skin envy, so it's no surprise SK-II has tapped her to be its new face. Her go-to? "I love doing the SK-II Facial Treatment masks [$90 for six] a few times a week, especially when traveling. They instantly tighten and brighten my skin." And when she needs an extra boost, Bosworth calls her facialist, Faith Tatro, at Touch of Faith Aesthetics in Los Angeles, to get a customized treatment. LONG-LASTING VOLUME It's not luck that keeps the hairstyles of actresses like Jessica Biel and Jessica Alba looking good all night. "I switch off using hot and cold air during the blow-dry process," says hair pro Oscar Blandi. "Cold air holds the hair's shape and keeps the roots…

What an oddity. Writing a piece on someone who happens to be themost discreet, invisible, flashbulb-and-paparazzi hater—my friend Nicolas Ghesquière. To add to the difficulty of the exercise, this Frenchwoman is writing in English. I need precision; I need subtlety to illuminate this man's qualities and idiosyncrasies. So why am I doing it? Well, in the early days of November, despair and hysteria overwhelmed the fashion planet as the news broke that Nicolas was leaving Balenciaga. (As I write this, I realize it may sound alittle dramatic or ironic, but fashion people do have a tendency for hyperbolic reactions. After all, in January 1958, when Yves Saint Laurent presented his Trapèze collection for Christian Dior, observers said, "France is saved. It's Joan of Arc," and women cried from sheer emotion.…

Jennifer Lopez is standing on the terrace of the Ciragan Palace hotel in Istanbul, shooting the cover of Bazaar. It's an incredibly grand palace, and she's in an incredibly grand Versace. But she's goofing around, doing the robot and various girl-on-the-go catalog poses. "We're losing the moment!" laments the photographer. But then, boom: Lopez shakes her shoulders and fixes her with a sexy laser stare. J. Lo™ has arrived. "Oh, honey," she says soothingly, "I've been doing this for 20 years." The next night, Lopez is on a yacht on the Bosporous, on her way to the 32nd concert date of her world tour (which overlapped a 24-date American tour with Enrique Iglesias). She's trying to remember the shoulder thing, but with her four-year-old twins, Max and Emme, running around…

A BDDW credenza and an antique railroad bench. Right: Calderone in her living room. Gown, 3.1 Phillip Lim. 31philliplim.com. The artworks are by Lucien Smith, Wes Lang, and Alex Perweiler, and the custom-made coffee table is by Monk Designs. Athena Calderone is one of those rare birds who do not dread moving. On the contrary, she relishes the opportunity to relocate and reinvent her home landscape. "We're kind of serial movers," says the interior designer and blogger. "We tend to move every three years." Her latest project, the penthouse she shares with her husband, the music producer and DJ Victor Calderone, and their nine-year-old-son, Jivan, is a testament to her zest for decor. The apartment, in Brooklyn's Dumbo neighborhood, overlooks the East River and features über-high ceilings and the minimalist-chic…
