So, dear hearts, it's bone-chillingly cold outside and so, for our winter vacation this year, Mr. Fashionista and I have decided to jet off to the beautiful and exclusive Caribbean island of Nevis. We, of course, require a completely new and fab wardrobe for our trip, and have basically decided to pack the following items...

Katy Perry, Black and Blue
We've been gone awhile dear hearts and what, you may ask, brought us back to blogging and away from working late at the office as we should? This:
Katy Perry looks normal and pretty. Crazy. We always love purply blue, but it's particularly gorge on the black haired, blue eyed pop star. Well done Kate.

Heidi Klum in the Infamous Polka Dot Dress
And you know what, it's adorable. Absolutely adorable. Of course, Heidi has made a few changes, including getting rid of the sleeves, which was probably the right move for Ms. Klum now that we see the two gowns side by side. Plus, by keeping her hair and makeup simple, Heidi lets those Mondo Polka Dots speak for themselves. So, what do you think gentle readers? Is Heidi in or is she out?

The Eight Faces of Carrie Underwood
For the third year in a row, Carrie Underwood hosted the Country Music Awards. And, once again, she was only permitted to stay in any one outfit for 10 minutes or less. Let's go ahead and take a look dear hearts.

Mermaid v. Prom Queen
While we could do without the middle flounce in the mermaid gown, that purple dress has a polyester bridal look about it.
Winner: Mermaid

Stop the Press: Paris Hilton Is In
We can not believe we are about to say this, but Paris Hilton looks absolutely adorable here and, dare we say, classy. We're so proud of you, Paris. Our little baby girl is all grown up.

2010 Jakarta Fashion Week
We can only assume the headpiece on this look is inspired by traditional Indonesian garb somehow, so we'll give it a pass.

Part 1: Happy Halloween!
Happy Halloween ghouls and ghosts! Before you eat another Reese's peanut butter cup, please enjoy these photos from the 2010 Lanvin Halloween Extravaganza. Some of these ladies were costumed as the world's skinniest rumored-to-be pregnant ladies (hello, Rachel Zoe), some came dressed as Victor/ Victoria (we're looking at you Janet Jackson), some we were not certain whether they were wearing a costume or not (yes, Padma Lakshmi, is that a Pocahontas costume or just your everyday wear, we're confused?) and some looked like strange half-leopard half-bird creatures, whose Hershey bars had really gone to their hips (Anne Hathaway dear, what were you thinking?).
Well, ciao for now. Enjoy and we'll post some sillier costume pics later. Boo!

Project Runway: (A Very Sad) Finale Part 1
So, tonight's episode, which is the first part of the two-part finale, begins and we are reminded again that April is out. So sad. We plan to show her collection in its entirety in the next post, so you can see it.
Heidi informs the remaining four designers that they each get $9000 and 6 weeks to show a 10 piece collection. See you in 6 weeks suckers...

White Trash Beautiful: Heather Locklear and Ava Sambora
We recently learned a few things about Heather Locklear's fam that we didn't know before.

1. Heather Locklear and her daughter Ava Sambora look practically identical.
2. Heather's ex Richie Sambora has a women's clothing line called White Trash Beautiful.
3. Heather's 13 year old daughter Ava is currently a model (or at least she is whenever Dad designs the clothes).
We're most surprised by the second revelation. You?

Day and Night with Freida Pinto
Freida Pinto by Day. Freida has been working it for her new movie Miral. Here she is in a day look for a photo shoot. We love the soft browns, which almost blend into her skin. We think her ensemble is a perfect look for such an occasion. Our biggest issue is the fact that her neck has disappeared. We have noticed this before with Freida. We're not sure if she has a short neck or if she just has tendency to hide it. Either way, it would have been nice to have seen a look that elongated her neck more.
Despite the neck problem, her shoes are too cute. We were worried they were too dark for the softness of her skirt and shirt, but we actually think they add some nice contrast and, well, they're just too darn cute to say anything bad about. So, we say IN for this day look even if there were some things we would have done differently.
Question: And what does Ms. Pinto wear when the sun goes down?

Worst Dressed Actresses at the Scream Awards
Also at the Scream Awards, were several actresses who looked frighteningly awful. Our nominees for Worst Dressed are:
1. Betsy Russell. Saw star Betsy Russell showed up with one of the most disturbing cleavage shots we've seen in awhile. This is just plain ugly. You should really be wearing a bra dear because the girls need some help.

Best Dressed Actresses at the Scream Awards
Many of our fave celebs attended this year's Scream Awards. Some looked divine, while other looked screamingly awful. And the nominees for Best Dressed are:
1. Blake Lively. We think this gray looks very pretty on the always fashionable Blake Lively. The leather detail is also interesting and the jewel detail at the neckline adds just the right amount of sparkle to break up a look that might otherwise be a bit drab.

Red Carpet: Conviction Premiere in London
Cleopatra and the Mummy attend the Conviction premiere in London.


True, Minnie Driver and Hillary Swank look like they're attending an Egyptian-themed costume party, but that's no reason not to step back and give an objective review of their chosen gowns anyway.
We absolutely love the turquoise on Minnie Driver and we love the detail, but we worry it's just a bit costumey for us. Otherwise, we love it. She looks beautiful and the dress is incredibly flattering on her. So, we say she's IN.
Hillary Swank, on the other hand, looks like she's wearing shiny bandages. We think the bottom is pretty, but the top just doesn't work for us. It bunches in an unflattering way and her hair distracts from the neckline, which even if we don't like the way it bunches, seems to be the focal point of the dress. We also think this particular metallic is washing her out. For us, Ms. Swank is OUT.

Part 1: If We Were Rachel Zoe in Paris...
Well, dear hearts, Paris Fashion Week has ended and we must say we were really quite impressed. Although the Paris shows may not have been as edgy as those in Milan, there were certainly many beautiful looks from some of our fave designers. And, of course, we noticed many different trends as well.
Ordinarily, we are not overly fond of jumpsuits. Believe it or not, however, we thought there were quite a few gorgeous jumpsuits walking the Parisian catwalks this year, and below we show you some of the very best.
1. Project Runway Jumpsuit. This jumpsuit, designed by Phoebe Philo for Celine, has an interesting detail that we feel like we've seen week after week on Project Runway. In fact, we're wondering if Ms. Philo talked to Michael Kors, former creative director at Celine, about his time on PR because this detail is unmistakably PR. That's right. It's the very shiny, very exposed zipper Unlike the PR zippers, however, Ms. Philo has placed her zipper in the front rather than the back of the garment, and we think we rather like it (although we're not sure about the way it ends right at her lady parts). What we love most about this jumpsuit, however, is the shape at the top. We also quite like how minimalistic it is. For jumpsuits, which are so often associated with the seventies, the cleanness of the lines in this garment make it, in our eyes anyway, super modern. Plus, we think it's super sexy and could be a bold statement on a Red Carpet. We could see someone tall, slim and edgy pulling this look off. In other words, we could totally see this on Keira Knightley.

Project Runway: Sloppy Pajama Party!
2. The Challenge/ Heidi's Take. Heidi next tells the designers that for this challenge she will be their client and the designers will be required to create a look for her new line of active wear at New Balance. We fear that what Heidi means is that the designers will be required to create sweatpants. After Heidi shows the looks from her line, our fears appear to be confirmed as she shows hoodies, yoga pants, and sports bras in grays and blacks. But, in case this prospect is not exciting enough to the designers (which we suspect it is not to many of them), Heidi informs them that the winning look will be sold on Amazon! Yippee!

I've Got Something in My Front Pocket at YSL
Is it just us or is there something slightly vulgar about these front pockets featured in several of the Yves Saint Laurent looks shown this week at Paris Fashion Week? And yet, this funky front pocket, isn't something we've seen before and sometimes, you know, your right hand gets cold.What say you gentle readers? In or out?

Enormous Hats at Chanel
OK, dear hearts, when we first saw this, we thought it was the world's largest hat. Alas, no, it's only an umbrella. But you know what? We kind of think it's a fabulous double take and we enjoy our fashion with a sense of humor.
Let's go ahead and check out the front.
