Spotted this month, Lindsay Lohan, Ashlee Simpson and Kate Moss are wearing a surprising new trend in denim - grey. And just when I thought I owned every single shade of jeans known to man.
Actually, I've been looking for something new to add to my denim collection so I'm glad for the change. Here are a couple of great choices for the look:
The
Sass & Bide Frayed Misfit Skinny Jeans (above, left) are my favourite pair for this look because they also have a slim leg- you can buy them online at Net a Porter.
Another great pair is the
Habitual Bootcut Jeans (above, right), available at yoox.us.

The dress that Mandy Moore and Sophia Bush wear is a great look for the nautical theme seen on runways. But, if I'm going to invest in something, I would rather have the
Peter Som handkerchief top (below), pair it with a blazer and skirt for work- just remove the blazer and add some earrings for night. Or, get some great sailor pants and wear it on the weekend.

Just because winter is coming to an end (I can't wait), doesn't mean that we have to give up on wearing hats. I've been longing for a knit beret since I saw Kirsten Dunst don one for her role in Elizabethtown.
Here are some celeb looks that never seem to go out of style-
The beret:
Wanna get one of these cute hats? I like this one from
Missoni open knit beret, especially since it’s on sale for $62 (reg. $167):
The newsboy cap:
Ashlee Simpson wears her Burberry newsboy cap everywhere. I like the
Antik Batik white, sequined hat ($123) for this look:
The fedora:
To get Mary Kate Olsen’s look, the
Peter Grimm fedora
(only $19.99!) is a great match:
The floppy sun hat:
Mischa Barton attempts to go incognito in her floppy sun hat, while Britney Spears wheres her's to the beach. This look is going to be big for spring, snatch up this
Burberry London checked hat before they’re all gone:

Celebs are choosing multi-color gowns to liven up their looks. Whether that be with stripes, floral patterns or a kaleidoscope print this trend really makes you stand out from the crowd.
Forget about the classic little black dress, everyone has one! Get something unique with one of the multi-colored frocks below. The inspiration for this look?- Missoni, of course, with designs that are never dull.
Multi-color Stripes:
Now you can get this
Zac Posen dress (shown above), seen on Rachel Bilson and Alyson Hannigan, at Net a Porter.
Missoni specializes in multi-colored stripes. I especially love the three dresses above (from left to right), the
Missoni Giorgio knit dress ($1416), the
Missoni Natalina jersey dress ($1230), and the
Missoni Clan dress, eluxury.com ($1220).
Kalediscope Prints:
For an interesting print (from left to right), the
Fendi Sundress($1720), the
Emilio Pucci knots tank dress ($385) and the
Emilio Pucci Reflessi halter dress ($805) are all fantastic.
Floral Patterns:
You can get the dress that Nicole Richie is wearing - the
Missoni Felicita silk dress on sale at Net a Porter for $4887 (reg. $6516)! I love its unique pattern and golden garland detail.
Or, if you want something with long sleeves, the gorgeous
Missoni Lurex floral gown is also on sale for only $890 (reg. $2989).

No one can deny that lace is a huge trend this season. I think this look will be continue to be very popular, who could imagine gorgeous dresses like Jennifer Lopez’s or Lindsay Lohan’s going out of style?
Long-sleeved Lace:
To get Jennifer Lopez's and Lindsay Lohan's looks, I like the
Vera Wang floral lace dress that you can get for 40% off at amazon.com.
Or, if you want something shorter, get the dress that Ellen Pompeo is wearing- the
Michael Kors lace babydoll dress at Net a Porter.
Strapless Lace:
For Natalie Portman, Jessica Simpson and Sandra Bullock's strapless look I love the
Alexia Admor black lace dress, also available at amazon.com for 40% off.
Lace Trim:
Afraid of all-out lace? Add a little to your look like Anne Hathaway and Reese Witherspoon with this fabulous
A.B.S. lace trim cocktail dress, 60% off at amazon.com.
One more ...
My favourite is the
Paul Smith lace dress, shown below.

Long chains have been in for awhile now and the look isn’t going anywhere. Check out these very recent celeb pictures of Nicole Kidman (at the 2006 Grammys), Kate Hudson (at Versace), Jennifer Lopez (at the opening of her fashion line, Sweetface), and Sienna Miller (at the premiere of Casanova in London).
Whether you wrap it around your neck (a la Nicole Kidman), layer them (a la Sienna Miller) or just leave it hanging (a la Kate Hudson), this look is perfect for any outfit and any occassion.
If you want to get the look, these designer necklaces are definitely celeb-worthy. The
Me & Ro lotus petal chain (above, left) will go with every outfit and the
Day Berger Et Mikkelsen silk beads (above, right) are perfect for Sienna Miller’s look.

I just spotted Lindsay Lohan at the Berlin Film Festival (where she attended the premiere of her movie, A Prairie Home Companion). She is wearing a cute silk satin dress by Marc Jacobs, that you can buy online! She pairs it with black peep-toe shoes, a must-have for every celeb.
I then remembered that Rachel Bilson wore the same dress to the Marc Jacobs show at the New York Fashion Week on February 7, 2006!
If you want a pair of black peep-toe pumps that will go with anything, take a look at these
Steve Madden Quentin pumps, they are $123.95 at Zappos.com!
