Still glamorous, 62-year-old Diane von Furstenberg graces! the cover of Town and Country magazine, almost forty years after her wrap dress made her famous.
What we love about Diane von Furstenberg: Her recent holiday collection was inspired by Wonder Woman, but it's the motto that we like: "Be the Wonder Woman you can be."
What makes our hearts go pitter-patter: A portion of the collection's proceeds went to Vital Voices Global Partnership, a nonprofit foundation that promotes women's economic progress.
von Furstenberg says, "I'm so committed to it; they help so many people."
"I want to play an important role in helping women all over the world to empower themselves."

40-year-old Debra Messing graces the cover of the September issue of
Town and Country. She talks about her upcoming film
The Women as her only time in memory of an all-woman cast. She also commented on how women are affected by aging.
"I couldn't imagine that women of such talent and stature would be affected by getting older. I learned that they did feel a switch, but they were refusing to be defeated and taking control of their creative needs - Jada was directing for the first time, Meg was producing The Women, Annette was about to do a play. I found that inspiring."
Also in this issue...
were the 45 must-haves for fall which include a Gucci carpetbag, Christian Laroix boots, and Michael Kors embossed leather clutches.
Eight women from eight different cities share the products that carry them through the season. Monica Pedersen, host and designer on HGTV's Designed to Sell adds one drop of Declore Aromessence Neroli, ($64) a face oil, to her daily mosturizer (Lancome Bienfait Multi-Vital SPF 30 $43) to combat the dryness from loss of moisture during the winter months.

In the case for showing less skin this summer, read the witty article about social graces in the haute summer heat that begins, "Waiter, there's a breast in my soup." Learn the five summer fashion faux pas when the mercury rises:
