Seeing Stars - Hollywood Loves Dolce & Gabbana Star Print


Few designers have the same pervasive influence as Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. Ever since their star-filled Fall 2011 runway, Hollywood has become flooded with the galactic trend.

The versatile style has been picked up by a variety of Hollywood A-listers. Mother-to-be, Jessica Alba, opted to wear a flowing maxi-dress from the collection for the Spy Kids premiere. Meanwhile Evan Rachel Wood and her new androgynous 'do gave the trend an edge with a pair of star-studded skinny pants and a leather motorcycle jacket.

Olivia Wilde was the first to don a velvet number from the collection. The brunette bombshell attended the Change-up after-party in a glitzy long-sleeved number from the same collection. Rosario Dawson and Pixie Geldof took a whimsical approach to the style with airy chiffon pieces—Rosario in a shorter cocktail dress with butterfly sleeves, Pixie in a strapless floor-sweeping design.

We definitely don't see this trend going away anytime soon. Will you be wearing star print this season?

Cameron Diaz Gets Graphic in Burak Uyan


Cameron Diaz walked the blue carpet of the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles on Sunday night for the 2011 Teen Choice Awards.

The 38 year-old actress wore a dull beige strapless mini by ALC and strappy heels from Burak Uyan. Cameron’s dress and hair were so similar she was just one bland shade head to toe.

Diaz’s fashion pick wasn’t stellar but she proved worthy of the not-really-just-teenagers vote and nabbed a surfboard for Choice Movie Actress Comedy for her role in Bad Teacher.

Brand: Burak Uyan

Real vs. Steal: Get Freida Pinto's Blue Suede Shoes for Less


A style savvy Freida Pinto added flair to her white sheath dress with a pair of bright blue suede shoes outside of The Today Show studios. Brian Atwood's suede Felini peep-toes updated Freida's classic look thanks to their of-the-moment shade. The covetable heels even matched her luxe Chanel flap bag.

Brian Atwood heels have quickly become a favorite among the Hollywood set, turning up at nearly every red carpet event. In fact, Victoria Beckham even turned to Atwood to design two styles of rose gold heels for her Spring 2011 collection. Although the closed-toe Maniac pumps are the brand's most popular style to date, the Felini heels have already been spotted on the likes of Katie Cassidy, Diane Kruger and Fergie, to name a few.

Should you suddenly feel compelled to buy your own pair of Brian Atwood's electrifying 5.5'' heels, snag them on sale for $459 at mytheresa.com. To get Freida's look on a budget, pick up the Haiku for $90.97 at SteveMadden.com. Apart from having slightly thicker heels, the blue suede peep-toes are pracitcally dead ringers for the Felini at a fraction of the price.

Happy shopping!

Who Wore All Saints Best: Lourdes Leon, Ashley Tisdale or AnnaSophia Robb?


On Wednesday, Ashley Tisdale slipped into a sparkly little mini for the premiere of Disney's Phineas & Ferb in Los Angeles. While Tisdale looked adorable as ever in her geometrically patterened AllSaints Spitalfields dress, there was something extremely familiar about the frock: It had already been worn by two other stars!

Madonna's daughter Lourdes Leon paired the dress with youthful bangles and a pair of simple black pumps to attend the Vanity Fair Oscar party in February. In April, actress AnnaSophia Robb wore the dress to Nickelodeon's Kids Choice Awards, accessorizing her look with a delicate gold necklace.

When we last polled about this look, readers were slightly in favor of Lourdes' look, as she captured about 55% of the vote. Now that you've seen Ashley in All Saints, who do you think best rocks those sequins?

Sneak Peek: Karl Lagerfeld for Macy's


We have to (eagerly) await August 31st to get our hands on Karl Lagerfeld's Macy's collection, but we've got a sneak peek at the stylish and affordable goods! The 45-piece capsule collection looks sure to please a wide range of Macy's customers.

While the bright and feminine looks don't scream Chanel, Karl's touch comes through in his crisp white collared shirt (styled, of course, with a chain necklace) as well as a sleek collared shift dress with a British school girl mood. Not to mention the basic tee and tank with Karl's black-and-white sketch front and center.
Karl offers an option for night wear with touches of hot pink amongst black leather. His feminine office-to-dinner pieces, however, might be the most popular of the collection. Romantic chiffon frocks and floral dresses, tweed coats and button-downs all give the versatility every woman craves.

Mihai Albu - "The Shoe Architect"


Mihai Albu Romanian shoe designer has created a shoe that will raise you up an entire foot. What woman wants to be a whole foot taller? And talk about hard to walk in heel. The tall shoes seem to come at a tall price, as well: $1,525, which is approximately 3 times the monthly wage in Albu’s homeland of Romania.
