Fashion Scoop: Kendall Jenner Is Now A Face Of Estee Lauder, Solange’s Wedding Photographed by Rog Walker for Vogue.com, and Into The Gloss Just Raised $8 Million,

  • Last week wasn’t all about Kim Kardashian–sister Kendall Jenner closed the week out by announcing that she is the newest face of Estée Lauder. The realty star turned model is definitely making quite the statement, seeing as beauty contracts are amongst the most lucrative in the business. She will appear in print and online advertising and will help to create social media content for the brand. (StyleBlazer)

  • If you’re a fan of shopping online at Farfetch.com, we’ve got some good news for you. About half of the retailers on the site of signed up for a new service that will allow you to order products online and have them shipped to a nearby store to try them on and do alterations. If you decide that you don’t really want the product, they’ll even send it back for you. How convenient! (Business of Fashion)

  • Though I covered Solange’s wedding yesterday, Vogue.com had exclusive access to the event and photographed an amazingly beautiful spread. Shot by Rog Walker, the spread shows Solange in her Humberto Leon designed custom Kenzo cape and gown in what can only be described as a tableau of love, surrounded by her mother and sister. Oh and if you were wondering about that jumpsuit she arrived in? Stephane Rolland lovelies. (Vogue)

  • While online sites are focusing on more offline things, offline retailers are thinking about how to be more like online retailers. The new Rebecca Taylor store features touch screen walls that are able to tell what you tried on, even if you didn’t buy it. You could even have associates send more products to your dressing room. Have an outfit that you know you want to buy? The touch screen also allows you to pay via PayPal.(Lucky)

  • We told you about Into The Gloss launching their beauty brand Glossier a few months ago but now there’s more. The brand raised $2 million in their first round of funding to get things started off but now, in order to expand on the successes they’ve made — there are no numbers yet but the company says things are selling well — they’ve raised $8.4 million to expand. And while I haven’t ever used the products, I’ve seen pretty good reviews (namely this one). This new influx of cash is set to help the company scale well and even launch their new holiday phase which will likely include color cosmetics. (Fashionista)
