Part 2: If We Were Rachel Zoe in Paris...

She's got legs...sheer energy legs. Anyone else remember that commercial? Anyway, another of the great fashion trends on the Paris runways (and, indeed, in NYC, London and Milan) was sheer fabrics, exposing legs, arms, midriffs, breasts. You name it, it was exposed. At its worst, it reminded us of the horrible Kelly Taylor (of the original Beverly Hills 90210) type blouses we wore at the beginning of high school. At its best, it was beautiful and so totally 2010.

And so standing in for the pregnant Rachel Zoe, we present some of our fave sheer looks from Paris and the actresses we believe would look smashing in them...



1. Sheer with Flourishes.


Sarah Burton, who had the insanely difficult task of designing the Alexander McQueen collection for next spring, showed many a dramatic look. We were, however, most drawn to her nymph like creations. Wearable? In the right circles on the right ladies we think they might just be.

For instance, we could see this black dress on someone like Zoe Saldana (we certainly like to put dresses on that gal don't we?).

Part 2: If We Were Rachel Zoe in Milan...

Shake it, gentle readers! Another trend we noticed during Milan Fashion Week was a generous use of fringe in quite a few glam looks created by high profile designers for the 2011 spring season.

1. Golden Girl. First, this gorge gilded gown by Versace is sure to see a red carpet during awards season. Not only do we love the fringe, but we totally dig the detailed bodice. We think Demi Moore could look pretty fab in this little number and there is no way Ashton would be hooking up with twenty-one year olds after seeing his sweetie in this gown.Celebrities make their arrivals on the red carpet at the 82nd Annual Academy Awards held at the Kodak Theatre on March 7, 2010 in Hollywood, California.

Who is the Fiercest Fashionista in Hollywood?

Gentle People,

Recently, certain young starlets have been getting attention for being snazzy dressers, when they don't perhaps deserve such high praise--we're looking at you Lea Michele.While we very much appreciate Lea's style and her fantastic rendition of Don't Rain on My Parade, she doesn't really take a lot of chances with her attire. Don't get me wrong, we love most of her fashion choices, we just think there are others more worthy of our Fashionista title. All of our nominees for fiercest fashionista take chances with their wardrobe which we think the media all too often punishes them for. The media is, of course, wrong and Mrs. Fashionista is, of course, always right. And the nominees are:

1. Zoe Saldana

Here is the dress that first made us take notice of this Latina fashionista. A good bit of the press gave her hell for it.  For me, this was the dress at the 2010 Oscars. Zoe also made a statement in this beautiful orange Lanvin earlier this year.
