In July of 2005 just as the Brad and Angelina love affair leaked, W Magazine displayed a sexy yet domestic spread of the Mr. and Mrs. Smith stars. But it’s only a photo shoot, right?

Photographer Steven Klein’s vision was more of a premonition than a sexy, seductive tale of bodies that, behind the lace and dim lighting, were “truly” in love.

Fast-forward five years and you have Aniston covering W with the same look in her eyes. Her skin is seeping through sexy clothes and she’s paired with a handsome actor – rumored lover, Gerard Butler.  Another one of Klein’s sexy, psychic photo shoots perhaps?

Welcome to our new category – Currently Craving. This section covers all that we’re presently obsessed with.

For our first craving we would like to introduce you to Melody Ehsani. The pieces in her collection are somewhat risky but bold and most definitely fresh.

Check out these silver metallic, peep toe, platforms  - They’re wildly hot and retail under $200!

We’re on the verge of “over” bib necklaces but this hot pink and black combo have us second guessing.

Spring is around the corner and it blossomed this weekend with lightweight coats and crowded parks.

Normally animals grow extra fur to keep warm throughout the chilly winter weather, but facial hair for spring is hot. Literally. (We’re not implying that men are animals…really). Along with beards and staches, milatary green and brass buttons will be marching the streets. We’re looking forward to nude lips and clogged feet – wooden soles and neutrals are on the most wanted list.

At the Bag Trends Party for LaLucca handbags, there were some great works of art by Peter Tunney that accompanied the unique, hand painted clutches. See below for some of New and Worthy’s favorite items. We’ve expressed some sadness recently realizing that fashion as art has been absent from the scene – this event was refreshing. Thank you Bag Trends for another awesome event!

We are inspired that Michelle Obama took time out of her busy schedule to read to 200 local students in honor of Dr. Suess’ birthday. She recited the rhyming lines from “The Cat In The Hat” to children wearing red and white high hats!

We put some items together so you can channel your inner child -

Packing for a vacation can be stressful. When you depart for islands, spas,  and getaways unknown, stress should be left behind.

We think the carry-on is the most fun to pack. It is essential that it’s packed lightly and thoroughly.

I find that a carry-on full of toiletries (see here for restrictions), magazines, intimates, running clothes and running shoes eliminates overstuffing in larger luggage. I like to check one bag, if I must, when travelling.  Rolling suitcases are the best option for a carry-on.

You must be sure that your make up is stashed separately from your toiletries. We don’t want drenched makeup brushes – beware the spill.

I never thought I would see the day when fanny packs re-surfaced but traveling is the perfect time to break them out. You can store your passport, money, id, lip-gloss and anything else that you don’t want to dig for right at your hip.

These are only a few items that can help get you through the airport without feeling disheveled and overpacked.

And if you’re flying out of JFK be sure to pack an assortment of magazines – with the new project in place you’re in for a wait.

Since ice dance became an Olympic sport in 1976, a Russian or Soviet couple had taken the gold, except on two occasions. But this year patience and hard work paid off when Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir took home the gold.

Not only did we love the routine but the photo gallery on their website is fashion forward and trendy! Here is a shot of Tessa in a gorgeous tulle skirt and toe shoes.

The stacked pearl bracelets give this basic black outfit a little pop. We’ve included some options below -

With a great variety of photos in the gallery we also picked this more subdued image. The layered turquoise necklaces dress up any look.

Here are some of our turquoise picks -
