Chanel goes green…
Last week we threw out some ideas for what Chanel’s Métiers d’Art show in Salzburg might reference, and today the house released a sneak peek of the collection.

Happy Holidays from H&M…
Christmas came early for fans of Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett’s Cheek to Cheek album. The duo star in H&M’s new holiday campaign alongside Joan Smalls, Sasha Pivovarova, and a cast of Gatsby-esque characters. The commercial includes a jazzy rendition of “It Don’t Mean a Thing (If It Ain’t Got That Swing)” from the album. [Telegraph]

Jam out like a Victoria’s Secret model…
If there’s one thing Victoria’s Secret models know (other than the secrets of having an impeccably toned derriere), it’s party music, because really the show is like one big lingerie party. Karlie Kloss, Lily Aldridge, and Elsa Hosk shared the tracks they listen to before hitting the catwalk. Consider your holiday playlist made. [Nylon]
What’s the word…
Popsugar’s unofficial glossary of 2014’s most relevant pop culture terms includes words like bae, basic bitch, and belfie. For better or worse, these are the words that helped define the year. [Popsugar]
