Style Showdown: Li Bingbing vs. Reese Witherspoon

Posted by babu 3:09pm GMT

As soon as I came across photos of Chinese actress and singer Li Bingbing in her frilly, peach Burberry Prorsum dress, I recognized it as being the same one worn by Reese Witherspoon on her Glamour January 2011 cover.

While this isn't exactly comparing peaches to peaches (in Li's defense, Reese and her dress were privy to professional lighting and retouching), I love the way Reese's tousled tresses and chunky chain jewelry play into the leather-lined dress's "bad girl" nature, making for a sassy-meets-sweet look.

Upgrade: Leighton Meester Looks Better in Black

Posted by babu 12:52pm GMT

While I wasn't a HUGE fan of Leighton Meester's Burberry Prorsum gown at this year's Golden Globes, I was pleasantly surprised to see her in this black Michael Kors Resort 2011 gown with cutout detailing at "The Roommate" premiere in Los Angeles.

While the leather bodice is right on cue with the star's recent good-girl-gone-bad red carpet transformation, the gown's flowy, jersey skirt serves to soften the look.

Is this star's recent look an "upgrade" or a "downgrade" from her last one?

Reese Witherspoon for Glamour January 2011

Posted by babu 1:18pm GMT

All-American sweetheart Reese Witherspoon turns sexpot for Glamour's January 2011 issue, on the cover of which she models a sizzling melon-colored, ruffled Burberry Prorsum dress laced with leather, accessorized with a Shery Shabani for Fragmants chain necklace, Neil Lane bracelet and Fogal fishnets.

Inside the mag, Reese's tongue-in-cheek fashions continue, courtesy of designers like L’Wren Scott (velvet jacket left), Giles and Christian Louboutin (dress and shoes right), along with a bevy of luxe jewels from the likes of Shery Shabani for Fragmants, Swarovski and Janis by Janis Scott.

Dare to Wear: Emma Watson

Posted by babu 5:42pm GMT

No wizard cloaks here! "Harry Potter" star Emma Watson worked her magic (and showed some skin) in a leggy Burberry dress at the Burberry Prorsum Spring/Summer 2010 show during London Fashion Week.

I love how the edginess of the allover embellishments is offset by the neutral tones and sleek shape of this dress (guts and grace).

Would you dare to wear this look?
