From prehistoric Photoshop to celeb fragrances, here’s what we’re buzzing about this week
Watch: Primrose Hill. This new reality TV show goes inside the homes of London’s trendiest inhabitants. We’re talking serious celebs here, people.
Run: For your life! Dinosaur Photoshop is coming to a wedding album near you. Romantic photos? So overrated.
Know: The Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) inducted 32 new designers (including Christian Siriano). Oh, to be a fly on the wall during one of those meetings.
Check Out: The winners of the 2012 Fragrance Foundation Awards. Ahh, the sweet smell of victory.

Our top 4 picks of the week

Heidi’s super healthful meals – made from natural, whole foods and ingredients – look almost too pretty to eat. Almost. Replicate with abandon.
2. Creature Comforts
Daily color inspiration boards, for when you’re just so sick of being called out for wearing black on black daily.

@bryanboy: ok so i got invited to my first wedding in america. what do people wear? can i wear bootie shorts and a sweater and sandals?
Yes. Now – pics or it didn’t happen.
@tyrabanks: “TyTy, I miss you, baby.” The treadmill is calling my name. About to reunite. There will be tears…
We’re crying, too, but only because we don’t have a talking treadmill to motivate us.
@cherylbradshaw: For some reason during summer every day ALWAYS feels like Saturday!
Is it really necessary to tease us like this?
@KennethCole: I am not addicted to #twitter. I can quit as soon as I am done with the next one. #12StepProgram
This is exactly what we tell ourselves whenever we check Facebook as soon as our alarm goes off.
@Bethenny: What i love about you all is how trusting you are.
And the award for “Creepiest Thing Said on Twitter This Week” goes to…

A Tuesday roundup of our recent Pinterest obsessions: Father's Day Edition
1. Decide Sunday’s menu together – with help from an all-about-grilling Pinboard.
2. Check out these gift ideas for the has-everything dad with a sense of humor.
3. Is Dad techy or handy? There’s bound to be something here that hasn’t yet made it onto his desk or workbench.
4. Maybe a new jacket or tie is all he needs to feel young and dapper on his special day.
5. Football season is 86 days away. Which, to Dad, is 86 days too long. Soften the blow.

@EHolmesWSJ: Must share my fave Instagram from last night once more. Anna with a big smile at the #cfdaawards… http://instagram.com/p/aHV5tdLKRg/
So much love. Happy Anna means happy us.
@TIME: WATCH: A chocolate syrup slip ‘n slide is simultaneously the best and worst idea http://ti.me/10UmLDJ
We’re in. Just let us change first. (Please.)
@mintloveblog: Confetti delivery. I feel like I could do an entire blog post about my favorite confetti resources!!! http://instagram.com/p/aHHibpP9s2/
Part of us is dying for you to go for it. The other part wonders if we should perhaps suggest an intervention.
@IrisBlasi: I would have dumped him the second he said he didn’t know what brie was. #bachelorette
Yes. How else could he make delicious cheesy sides for our dinner parties?
@helpareporter: Social media in real life: pic.twitter.com/PVa3MXHQFb
We see nothing wrong with this. In fact, we wish there were a “Love” button.

Our top 4 picks of the week
Sun-drenched days. Light-sweater nights. They’re here – and these bloggers are taking the season’s endless inspiration and running with it, DIY-style.
1. A Beautiful Mess
The next best thing to owning a beach house? Anchors. All over your walls. Here’s how to bring summer home.
2. oh joy!
Fact: summer demands ice cubes. Addendum: not just any ice cubes will do. Enter: striped ice cubes. (Please make and invite us over, thanks.)
3. Design for Mankind
Chevron + coral screams summer – so take the quintessential pairing straight to your most mundane items. Folding chair, it’s on.
4. Sprinkles in Spring
Take shark teeth. Add earring posts. Gild in gold. These beauts are your middle school summer-camp craft gone luxe.

@scalzi: I always count it as a victory when I eat barbecue and my shirt comes out of the experience unstained.
This. Especially when we’re wearing our new… well… anything.
@Aryooki: on Friday I had an iced mocha from @jbchang ‘s flour in Central Square. During a horrible day we determined that it was a unicorn in a cup.
If the coffee is a unicorn, the cookies must be Pegasus.
@MarcJacobsIntl: Close your eyes & make a wish: http://mjin.tl/wshcne
We wish Marc Jacobs would visit the Rue offices. (We’ll also blow out some birthday candles if it will help.)
@deadmau5: Nobody likes champagne.
Let’s agree to disagree.
@SHARON_NEEDLES: Tonight the house of haunt is having bread for dinner and watching all the new arrested development
Carbs + comedy = our perfect night.

A Tuesday roundup of our recent Pinterest obsessions
1. We’ve kicked off the sunny season – and now to tackle that Summer Bucket List.
2. Summery décor ideas. So your home can be just as bright as your warm-weather outlook.
3. A whole board full of seashell DIYs means one thing: time to hit the beach.
4. Sandals, espadrilles, and wedges, oh my! Finally – light and airy shoes (on a daily basis).
5. Short, beachy dresses and cover-ups. Because a vacation deserves a whole new wardrobe.

From water tower nightclubs to Bachelorette raps, here's what we're buzzing about this week
Watch: “Goat Lucky” – the most addictively random twist on Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky” yet.
Plot: Your fantasy draft for The Bachelorette. Des rapping with Soulja Boy should get you more than amped for tonight’s premiere.
Rethink: Your idea of exclusive. This nightclub popped up inside a water tower. The only way in? Up a ladder and through a trap door.
Pick Up: This Ferragamo comic book. Shoes have never been so fun. (Okay, we lie.)
