Get Excited: Rebel Wilson is getting her own ABC show, Super Fun Night, this fall. We already have our popcorn ready.

Rubi’s latest hair secret: coconut oil works wonders on frizz. Who knew?

5 reasons you're going to want it in your shopping arsenal

Android users, you’ve spoken. And the powers that be here at Rue heard you. We’ve rolled out our brand new, fully-loaded app – just in time to shop from your beach towel.
Here’s why we think you’ll really like it:
- We streamlined navigation, so you can jump between categories easier and faster. Ideal for when you’re grabbing something for yourself, your significant other, and your digs all at once.
- We linked up with Google Wallet to make checking out as painless as possible. With all of your credit card info safely stored (where no one will find it), you’re out of there in fewer clicks than ever before.
- See items you’re lusting after up close and personal with our beautiful high-res images.
- It’s also easier to select your size. (Thanks for letting us know that this one needed a little fixing.)
- Overall, the performance just runs smoother. We addressed all the bugs you so graciously called out. Something tells us you won’t miss them one bit.
Our new app is compatible with devices running on Android 2.2 (Froyo) or newer.
Simply stop by Google Play to download or upgrade.

@CarrotsNCake: I just ate my lunch, but I think I have room for @pinkberry.
We could eat seven lunches and still have room for Pinkberry.
@ninadobrev: Wheels up..heading to humidity. I’m sweating just thinking about it!
Why does humidity have to ruin summer every. single. year?
@shannonwoodward: I wanna give a big what up to the gentle elderly gentleman who high 5′d me at JFK today while I sprinted like a cheetah to make my flight.
We’d love to have cheerleaders for our morning mad dash to the train.
@alexa_chung: My face just Elephant Manned after a walk in Central Park went horribly wrong.
Pollen: one of the only things that can make a walk in the park into no walk in the park.
@WholeFoods: You only need four things to make bacon: pork belly, cure (salt, sugar, time), smoke… AND this helpful article! http://bit.ly/167Zdmb

A Tuesday roundup of our recent Pinterest obsessions
1. Because Mariposa knows that life’s too short to pass on the (wedding) cake.
2. Lazy weekend uniform – check. Just add breakfast in bed.
3. Our closet is begging for these of-the-moment picks.
4. Seeking happiness? Just smile. (And some reminders couldn’t hurt, either.)
5. Pomegranate applesauce. Sweet-potato chips. These healthy eats have us ready to cook up a storm.

From fashion industry bigwigs to Monday morning jams, here’s what we’re buzzing about this week

Get to Know: Some of the fashion industry’s biggest behind-the-scenes influencers. Looks like we have five new people to idolize.
Know: Gwyneth Paltrow did not enjoy the Met Gala. But not to worry – we’re more than happy to take her spot next year.
Listen To: The ultimate at-work playlist. Because, we get it – Mondays are rough.
Tell Us: Whose campaign was better? We’re remaining neutral on this one, but we’d gladly rock both pairs of heels.

The fact that our Members’ moms have style is practically a given. So, in honor of Mother’s Day, we gave you a chance to prove it and be featured on our login page – and we received an outpouring of photos and aphorisms on our Facebook and Twitter. With them, we compiled (drumroll, please)… today’s login. We couldn’t include every picture in the interest of space, but some of the others will get their due fame on our Twitter feed. Happy Mother’s Day! #MomStyle

Here at Rue, we’re suckers for Mad Libs (then again, who isn’t?). So, this Mother’s Day, we created our very own special version and asked you to fill in the blanks. Below, check out a couple of the style-packed stories our Members crafted up. Then, make your own – it could just wind up on our social channels.


Think Mom’s the best? We do. Tell her (or the mom figure in your life) with a style-packed story made just for her. Create your Style Libs now.

Our top 4 picks of the week

1. j’adore couture
We’ll be taking our early-morning (and late-morning, and early-afternoon…) coffee with a hefty dose of pretty stacked rings now, thankyouverymuch.
2. Fashion Chalet
When a girl can pull off riding pants, neon, and a sequinny clutch – while walking around in the woods – we like her. Instantly.
3. allie wears
Reason to add more stripes and caged sandals to our arsenal immediately. (As if we needed one.)
4. seersucker + saddles
Summer preppy. Slightly glam. If drinking lemonade on the front porch of a Nantucket beach house were a blog, this would be it.
