The full eyebrows of the 1980s have been back in style for years - just look at Jennifer Connelly - but the recent trend among the hottest models is brows that aren't just full, they're long! (And in this particular photo from the spring 2011 Rag & Bone show, they aren't just long, they're also oddly wet.)

With a hot-off-the-presses YSL campaign, Arizona Muse is the biggest name in the modeling world right now - and her long, thick eyebrows are one of her most defining features. They suit her perfectly.

But that begs the questions: Are they pretty? Would you let your eyebrows grow to Groucho Marx proportions?

There's been so much hype and speculation surrounding Kate Middleton's wedding dress choice, but things have been rather quiet on the Prince William front - until yesterday, that is. The British press reported that the Prince will wear a military uniform on the big day. And Savile Row tailors Gieves & Hawkes will supposedly be putting together the ensemble. While William certainly looks dapper in his official duds, we're afraid we'll have to wait until April before we get the official answer.

Do you think he should opt for the uniform or would a tux be a better choice?

The Best Blondes: What's Modern Now

"Allover soft, golden blonde that is multidimensional and not brassy looks current," says Kelly Van Gogh. Our experts agree that replicating the blonde you had as a child is always flattering. But don't overhighlight, which often causes hair to look dry and brittle, making you appear older. Van Gogh advises using color that contains shine-enhancing ingredients.

Kim Vo likes "reverse ombré. Think dark chocolate roots swept into gold tips," while Christopher John recommends "translucent shades ranging from cool sable to luscious chocolates, always avoiding dark ends." Van Gogh warns against "chunky, too-light

1: Don a Dash of Leopard

Truth be told, leopard goes with just about everything. Michelle Williams added Charlotte Olympia animal-print pumps to her red lace Erdem dress, instantly nabbing a spot on the best-dressed list.

2. Slip on a Boys Loafer

Simply put, menswear is just more comfortable than women's. Olivia Palermo polished off her black pantsuit with dapper Stubbs & Wooton loafers, proving that the easygoing look isn't just for the boys. Keep a masculine oxford on tap for the perfect finishing touch to everything from girly dresses to tailored separates.

1. Whiten Your Smile
As your skin starts to look pale, your teeth may seem dull, as well. See your dentist for a whitening treatment like Pola Office +, which requires only three eight-minute sessions and barely causes any sensitivity. Try New York dentists Lowenberg, Lituchy and Kantor.

Although sometimes a tad scary, a colorful lip is a great way to pack some punch - especially if you're like me with see-through fair skin and a wardrobe consisting of 95% black. Here are some helpful tips we learned backstage at fashion shows:

1. Get an awesome mascara. You'll definitely want to pump up your lashes to build contrast between your eyes and lips. Stick to black, brown, or navy.

2. Don't be afraid to wear face makeup, but avoid blush. Tinted moisturizer, translucent powder, and a touch of concealer are fine, but you don't want to look like you're part of the circus.

3. Reapply the right way. You want your color to last all day, but that may require a quick redo after meals. Be sure to blot your lips, dab a touch of concealer around your lip line, and swipe away. -Jessica Prince

Author Sally Ryder Brady long suspected that her husband of 45 years was leading a DOUBLE LIFE, but it wasn't until his death that the truth came out.

The brightest lights cast the darkest shadows, and from the moment we met, my husband, Upton Brady, radiated a multifaceted brilliance. When he died suddenly in 2008, my world was drained of light, yet I had no idea of the utter darkness that awaited me. Days after our four grown children and I scattered his ashes at sea, I began sorting through his closet. Upton's bathrobe and Brooks Brothers cashmere blazer still carried his clean scent.

I turned to the drawers in his bedside table, expecting to find nail clippers, cough drops, and the usual miscellany. But instead, two handsome naked men with polished bodies looked at me seductively from the cover of a magazine.

Two days later, I uncovered more gay porn, videos this time. And then condoms. We had never used condoms.

Not wanting to add to my children's grief, I
