Mark your calendars for Jan. 25: that’s when Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld’s new line will hit Net-a-Porter.com. The 100-piece women’s collection — called Karl and priced from $95-$450 — will include vests, jeans, cocktail dresses and more.

“It’s my today’s taste and style and a reflection of how I think a great number of people would like to be dressed now,” the designer said when describing the line to WWD. According to the publication, the garments are heavy on denim and leather, and are targeted at women in their late teens and early 20s.

Lagerfeld will celebrate the line’s launch during Paris Couture Week; it will be available on karllagerfeld.com beginning Feb. 28. Eventually, about 20 high-visibility retailers will be invited to carry the label; until then, the designer is planning a few “experience stores” and pop-up shops beginning in the second half of 2012.

After countless premieres and red-carpet appearances, Emma Watson has finally found the beauty routine that works for her. Crediting her pixie cut with what she calls a more “experimental” relationship with makeup, the 21-year-old tells Stylelist, “There’s no way to hide when you have short hair. You really have to go for it.”

The secret to her trademark look, which includes flawless skin, bold brows and a pinch of glamour, is an arsenal of reliable beauty tools. “I’m a creature of habit,” she tells Style.com of $45 Giorgio Armani “Beauty Luminous” silk powder (bottom right). “I like to find what works and keep buying it.” She also brightens up with bronzer or blush, like Yves Saint Laurent’s $38 Crème de Blush (top left) because, as Watson puts it, “I am so pale and English.”

Bar Refaeli ‘Really Excited’ to Be the New Face of Especially Escada

If model Bar Refaeli could create a perfume, it would smell just like Especially Escada. The new fragrance, a light blend of roses, is a scent she “really likes.” And good thing — the Israeli starlet is the perfume’s first face.

“For a model, the biggest thing is to get a perfume deal,” Refaeli told PEOPLE in New York last week during a luncheon for the scent. “And when I heard they wanted me to do it for a few years, I was like, ‘Wow, finally!’ I’m really excited about it.”

Refaeli shot the campaign images in Los Angeles recently, in a French-inspired garden in Los Angeles where flowers had been trimmed to create Escada’s iconic double E. “It was a funny day,” Refaeli recalled. “In Los Angeles the weather should be perfect, but it was pouring rain. But somehow the photographer was able to nail it, and light it in a way that looks like a spring or summer day. We were lucky.”

Go Bananas for Rachel Zoe’s Brand-New Newsletters

We literally love getting The ZOE Report delivered to our inboxes each day, so when we heard that stylist Rachel Zoe was launching two more newsletters, well, we died. The company recently added ZOE Beautiful and AccessZOEries, two daily email newsletters for beauty lovers and accessory fanatics, both curated by Team Zoe.

“More is more,” Zoe tells PEOPLE. “Our plan from the beginning was to start with The ZOE Report and then expand from there to offer additional content for people who may be extra obsessed in one area. My team and I stumble upon so many amazing new things every day, it is literally impossible to fit into just one newsletter.”

ZOE Beautiful is focused on the basics: makeup, hair and skincare. “We’ll offer a combination of our latest beauty discoveries, mixed with trends and how-to tutorials to get runway-inspired looks,” Zoe says of the newsletter. “My personal beauty guru, Joey Maalouf, will be helping out, too, so expect some fun and glamorous videos.”
