David Karp, the 26-year-old founder of Tumblr, sold his site to Yahoo! in an all-cash deal yesterday for $1.1 billion. The high school dropout has undoubtedly done well for himself, the deal making him one of the wealthiest and most successful techies under the age of 30. The native New Yorker will stay on as CEO and we're excited to see where he takes the website next. Check out our Daily Style Phile of Karp to find out more behind the scenes facts about the founder.

Last night the music industry invaded Vegas for the 2013 Billboard Music Awards held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. While the event celebrated pop music's top artists and their achievements, we'd like to shift the focus to what really matters and discuss the outfits. As with all music industry events, a look at what people wore might have you wondering if some thought it was a competition in who could look most ridiculous. Fortunately, there were several who rose to the occasion with their sartorial choices as they hit the blue carpet, so check out the best of the night in these top eight looks from the Billboard Music Awards.

In a city like New York, so inundated with shops and boutiques, finding that special, go-to store that stands out from the crowd can seem almost impossible. But on rare occasions, we come across a shop that is able to set itself apart from all of the competition in NYC, which is exactly what Quinn has done. The clothing brand, which officially launches for fall, has already opened up shop in the LES. Carrying everything from luxurious knits to amazing home goods, Quinn truly embodies what it means to be a contemporary lifestyle brand. We got a chance to chat with design director Bree Telford about the upcoming collection, what she sees for the future of the brand and what it means to be a "Quinn girl."
