Studded Trench Coats: Trend or Foe?

Posted by babu 2:02pm GMT

With a little help from Burberry, stars like Julie Ordon, Kim Kardashian and Emma Watson are taking a fresh (and fierce) approach to one of Spring's hottest style staples with heavy hardware (spikes included).

Do you think these embellishment-clad stars are on to something, or do you suspect they have a few screws loose? Weigh in below!

Red Carpet Recap: "Unknown" Premiere (Los Angeles)

Posted by babu 1:39pm GMT

I was a little disappointed when I came across the pictures from the "Unknown" premiere in Los Angeles, most likely because I had high hopes to begin with.

While all three of Diane Kruger, January Jones and Kim Kardashian are pretty high up on my red-carpet roll call, I couldn't help but think each woman's look (especially in the case of January and Kim) fell a bit flat.

Diane wore a Dolce & Gabbana dress from the Spring 2011 collection and, while I loved the dress's allover embroidering and silver detail, there was something about the length/failure to create shape at the cinched waist that felt a little off.

January wore an asymmetrical Alexander McQueen dress, which I would've preferred to see paired with gold or nude heels and a hairstyle/makeup palette that actually went with her look.

And, last but certainly not least, Miss Kardashian ditched the usual body-hugger for a conservative, cape-coat and legging duo, which would've proved refreshing had she not looked like the Marshmallow Woman.

This Week's Fab Five

Posted by babu 11:16am GMT

This week was all about the perfect party dress. And the winners are...

Jennifer Lopez in Haute Hippie at the Venus Goddess Razor Global Ambassador unveiling. As usual, J.Lo achieved a head-to-toe glow in this nude blouse and sequined wrap-skirt dup, which she topped off with jewels and Christian Louboutin pumps.

Rachel Bilson in Burberry Prorsum at the "Waiting for Forever" premiere. Leather trimming added a sexy touch to this otherwise girly, ruffled-chiffon dress, which the actress topped off with ankle-strap pumps.

Heidi Klum in Rachel Roy at Lucky's March Issue Celebration. Posh gets a playful makeover in this magenta-streaked sheath. The fearless fashionista pumped up the volume even more with strappy sandals and a set of cage rings.

Ginnifer Goodwin in Monique Lhuillier at the Children Awaiting Parents event. The always put-together "Big Love" actress looked like a piece of art in this color-splashed and tinsel-accented, illusionary-inset dress, which she brightened up with red peep-toes.

Kim Kardashian in an asymmetrical gold mini at the Kardashian Glam Pack of Silly Bandz Launch Party. Kim appeared to be having a Lady Gaga moment in this origami-style, foam dress and, while somewhat out of character, I think her overall look (which also also consisted of gold jewel detailing and nude platforms) worked.

Kim Kardashian Reveals Biggest Splurge

Posted by babu 1:14pm GMT

During last night's episode of [Kourtney and Kim Take] Piers Morgan, Kim Kardashian fessed up to her biggest splurge (house and car (s) aside) yet: a $115K watch!

Even sister Kourtney, who herself admitted to having experienced a bust-oriented wardrobe malfunction at this year's Golden Globes, responded in disbelief, stating:

"I don't do that stuff for myself...Well, I don't have as much money as Kim," adding "It's vulgar. And I have a baby that I'm, like, college and expenses…"

Style Showdown: Kim Kardashian vs. Kate Beckinsale

Posted by babu 1:07pm GMT

About six months after Kate Beckinsale debuted a silk and lace Nina Ricci bandage creation at the Cannes Film Festival, Kim Kardashian decided to give the gown a go at the 2011 InStyle/Warner Brothers Golden Globes Party.

While both leading ladies gave the gown the glamorous treatment with dangling earrings, Kim's hairstyle and red lip made for a sexier ambiance, while Kate's soft waves and tawny palette lended to a more subtle, natural look. This one's a toss-up for me.

This Week's Fab Five

Posted by babu 1:53pm GMT

This week was all about the 2011 People's Choice Awards. And the winners are...

Queen Latifah in Edition by Georges Chakra. My best-dressed pick of the night, the "Queen" certainly reigned in this turquoise and cream, ombre gown with beautiful beading along the halter neckline.

Taylor Swift in J. Mendel. I was excited to see Taylor choose this dress because it's a little sexier (and more mature) than her usual, glitter-clad, getups. Not only was this dress fresh (incorporating an illusionary neckline and bodice), the pastel peach color and flirty detailing puts me in the mood for spring.

Kaley Cuoco in a creamy, corseted creation. This gown, which looks like it could've been hand-picked from Katie Cassidy's closet, is one part gutsy, two parts gorgeous. I also love how the singer brightened up her soft ensemble with a colorful makeup palette.

Kim Kardashian in Catherine Malandrino. Kim looked like a total bombshell in this gold, brocade dress, which she paired with a thick, gold chain collar and nude platforms.

Selena Gomez in Irina Shabayeva. While I'm usually a sucker for a sweetheart neckline and a medley of different textures (this gown marries chiffon and tulle), it's the colorful, tribal print that absolutely makes this dress, which the actress/singer accessorized with gold jewelry and platform sandals.

One Designer, Two Ways: Catherine Malandrino

Posted by babu 5:00pm GMT

Kim Kardashian appeared flawless in a gold Catherine Malandrino tulip dress, chunky, gold choker and nude, peep-toe platforms at the 2011 People's Choice Awards.

If you recall, the same luxe brocade fabric was used to create the gown (also by the designer) worn by Drew Barrymore to the "Going the Distance" premiere in Los Angeles back in August.

It appears that, while both ladies were certainly going for sexy in this dress, Kim took the glamourous route, whereas Drew went for a more edgy look. So, because this is a case of comparing apples to oranges, this one's going down in my book as a tie.

Which style is the right way, and which one needs to hit the highway? You tell me in the comment section below.
