If you're headed to The Hamptons for Independence Day weekend, you'll need comfy canvas shoes to lounge around in. Luckily, TOMS is opening a pop-up shop at the Solé East Resort in Montauk, NY on July Fourth.

The maker of the Argentinean-style slip-ons will also host a weekend-long "Style Your Sole" event, where guests can purchase plain white TOMS and let out their inner Picasso.

Not only will you get to wear your art on your feet, but you'll also be helping underprivileged children protect theirs.

As always, for every pair purchased TOMS Shoes will give a brand new pair to a child in need. The company has already given away over 140,000 pairs and has a goal of 300,000 by the end of 2009.

Don't fret if you can't make it to the beach resort this weekend, the pop-up store will remain until September. And for all the non-New Yorkers, order a pair (or two) online.

British menswear designer Andrew Buckler has long drawn on pop iconography from both sides of the Atlantic for inspiration.

Names dropped on its Website -- which manages to capture a level of excitement that rivals that for the opening credits of a classic James Bond film -- include Tommy Lee, The Rolling Stones, Liam Gallagher and Shia LeBeouf.

Now the Buckler outpost in New York City's SoHo has painted its storefront and window with a striking homage to Michael Jackson (Twitpic courtesy of Perez Hilton).

As of Friday, bouquets from Jackson fans were beginning to build up outside the Grand Street locale.

"Roguish American icons with a Brit edge," is how Buckler describes his ethos.

This just might be an early indication that we can expect to see muted Michael Jackson-inspired looks on several designers' runways come the Spring/Summer '10 menswear shows in September.

It's no secret that Courtney Love is a woman of extremes, and clearly food is no exception.

Have you seen how scary-skinny she's gotten... again? Thankfully, she has, too.

According to the Daily Mail, her doctor has diagnosed her with malnutrition and has ordered her to eat more.

Upon his instruction, she's vowed to put on 15 pounds in one month. It's not the first time she's gone head-to-head with a medical professional about her weight.

This year, she told Elle UK that she'd been denied gastric bypass by a Hollywood doc and that she had lipo on her stomach but "it was horrible and it didn't work."

All of this hardcore dieting was a reaction to the Hole singer's well-documented 40 to 50 pound weight gain, incurred by eating what Gwyneth Paltrow ate. (Seriously!)

Love hired Paltrow's cook, well-versed in macrobiotic food, and ate so much of it that her weight shot up to 182 pounds.

"I thought, it can't make me fat - he's Gwyneth's cook!," Love told People once she started losing the weight, initially via-protein shakes and Atkins.

Here's hoping that Love finally finds the balance she's been seeking for, oh, ever, it seems.

As we celebrate July 4th, the famous French fragrance and beauty empire House of Caron has an interesting tale that's very timely. It's the story behind their Lady Caron fragrance, inspired by the Statue of Liberty.

Ernest Daltroff, founder of the House of Caron, fled Europe in 1939 and landed (where else?) in America. He was, like so many others, excited and touched by the sight of the Statue of Liberty, and the future it represented. He decided to create a perfume to commemorate that moment, and (60 years later) it finally materialized.

DEATH OF THE RUNWAY SHOW?
Last week, it was reported the "East Coast Oscars" or The Met's Costume Institute Gala may be downgraded to a benefit dinner. Now, LA Fashion Week loses corporate sponsors -- a major blow to the already struggling West Coast shows. And, top-notch designers Betsey Johnson, Vera Wang and Carmen Marc Valvo pull out of Fall's 2009 New York shows and opt for smaller presentations. Does this mean the end is near for live sashays down the runway?

Did Diane von Furstenberg's plan to freshen up the Meatpacking District backfire?

DVF's flagship store in the trendy West Village enclave of NYC has been wafting the designer's signature scent, D Eau de Parfum, out of the air vents in front of the store and, allegedly, it's leaving passersby sick, according to the New York Post.

While the piping of the Mandarin flower/lychee/jasmine/pepper/nutmeg concoction part is true, DVF's peeps say this is the first they've heard of complaints.

One woman, checking out the High Line Park above the store, complained to Page Six of dizziness from the "putrid, awful" scent, "something you'd find on a 60-year-old matron." Ouch.

While, two workers at a nearby hospital also complained of coughing fits. (Though, they do work in a hospital.)

We personally adore the scent and think the Meatpacking District could benefit from a pump of perfume to combat these smelly summer days.

But spritzing involuntary citizens is a bit extreme, even for us DVF-lovers. (It makes the overly aggressive department store sprayers seem almost tame.)
