The Perfect Celeb-Inspired Hats for Summer

Summer is almost here! The sun is shining, the weather is heatin’ up, and we’re getting ready to unleash our beach bods. (Well, after a few more reps of crunches, that is.) On those days when sunscreen and a pair of neon sunnies just isn’t enough, it’s time to throw on a hat perfect for any summer day.

Celebs have been going crazy over hats of all kinds this year, but here are some of our faves and the places you can find similar ones!

If anyone could live at the beach, it’s Stacy Keibler (who still has George Clooney wrapped around her finger). And look at her — we don’t blame him! Her fedora with black detailing is perf for a day at the beach, and you can get the same look for $9.80 with this straw fedora from Forever 21.

Is Ashley Tisdale ever not wearing a hat? We didn’t think so. But she looks fab in this classic hat with pink detailing, and you can too with a look-alike straw hat from H&M for $9.95.

Khloe Kardashian definitely knows how to make a statement with her bright, pink hat. (And side note, we want her bag, too!) With this floppy hat from Forever 21 for $12.80, you can be bold with a dash (haha) of color that’s great for the beach… but not too much color that you’re going to blind everyone on it.
Vanessa Hudgens knows exactly how to rock the boho-chic look in the rusty orange-colored hat she wore at Coachella, but we’re thinking something a little more summery like this wide-brimmed purple straw hatfrom H&M would be a summer look everyone will love.

What hats are you loving this summer? Which celeb rocks the trend best?

Celebs Wearing Hats

Whether trying to go incognito, repping their fave team or hiding from the sun, celebs love wearing hats. In honor of hat appreciation month, click through to see how stars are rocking all sorts of hats.

Cameron looks like she’s just come from the beach with her sunkissed tresses hidden behind that white fedora instead of trekking through the airport.

Vanessa Hudgens looks glam in her all-black ensemble and little felt hat that lets her short hair flow freely.

The couple that wears hats together stays together — at least when it comes to Jen and Justin, who tend to dress the same when out on the town.

You wouldn’t expect someone as divalicious as Beyonce to wear a boring, old baseball hat to a tennis match, would you? As it turns out, she prefers glam curly hair and a little black hat to make her sporty look edgier.

Reese goes for both glam and casual with this small fedora and a black sundress for a lunch date.

Oh, JT. A little newspaper boy’s cap can’t hide that signature swagger of yours.

Like every good fashionista knows, Kim rocks an elegant all-black outfit with a little fedora and a long side-braid.

Ashley Tisdale knows how to stay cool during L.A.’s warm fall — cool jersey dresses and floppy hats that keep her face covered.

Most celebs wear hats to help them go incognito, but not Khloe Kardashian! She rocks a bright pink floppy hat and a neon yellow purse while running errands in New York.

He may be playing a character, but is there anything hotter than Ryan Gosling looking dapper in a suit with suspenders and a hat? I think not.

Thank goodness Katie has Suri to help pick out chic, trendy outfits for a day of running errands.

Speaking of Suri … Could she look any more on trend for fall with her black felt cap and fur jacket?

When you have a little tot on the way, your priorities change. Take Hil for instance, who makes sure to keep her silky skin protected from the sun’s harmful rays.

Unlike her preppy sister, Ashlee sports hipster gear like it’s her job. And now with her very cropped ‘do, she has really embraced hats in all shapes and sizes.

Lady Gaga hardly ever wears traditional hats. But odd, larger-than-life headpieces, she’s all about — like a massive, white feather puff.

You wouldn’t expect a judge from “The X Factor” to not be a diva. And that expectation seems spot-on for Nicole Scherzinger, who rocks the largest, floppiest hat for an afternoon of errands.

Jennifer Love Hewitt accessorizes her causal jeans-and-a-T-shirt look with a cute fedora.

Demi Lovato has been rocking an edgier look post-rehab — on that has her fully embracing long, loose dresses and black felt hats.

Nicole Richie loves to rock her bohemian style, even when she’s coming to and from the gym. Hey, when fashion is your life, you still gotta look good when you’re a little sweaty.

Life’s a beach for Gabrielle Union, who keeps her face safe from the sun with a straw hat.

Rachel Zoe‘s fashion knowledge knows no end — she even looks gorgeous in a big floppy hat.

As long as you rock your Kangol hat in black, it’s red-carpet appropriate!

With his little cap and flowing locks, Matthew McConaughey’s son, Levi, never fails to live up to his reputation as one of the most stylish tots in Hollywood.

Oh, Ashton. A little straw fedora and some retro sunglasses can’t make up for those long tresses and unruly beard.

Paris, you stick out like a sore thumb wearing that floppy number and striking your signature pose.

Since David Beckham keeps his hair closely shaven, he often sports beanies to protect his head and ears from getting chilly.

Wearing his hat backward, Josh Duhamel goes for a look that says he’s cool but not trying too hard.

There’s nothing like seeing Prince William and Duchess Catherine rocking cowboy hats while touring the United States.

If you thought the trucker hat had come and gone, then think again. Gerard Butler rocks a black-and-white one as a way of rooting for the Chicago White Sox.

David Arquette has always had a quirky fashion sense. But ever since joining “Dancing With the Stars,” he has really stepped it up a notch.

As the biggest proponent of New York, it’s not surprising that Jay-Z wears FDNY gear on the anniversary of 9/11. He’s one prideful dude.

John Mayer continues shedding his pretty boy image every day — especially with the new Indiana Jones-inspired style he’s been rocking of late.

Just because Marc Anthony and Will Smith are Hollywood bigwigs doesn’t mean they can’t rock their baseball caps while catching a football game together.

Celebrity style: party dressing hits and misses

The office bash is right around the corner and you still haven’t a clue what to wear… eek! Well, don’t panic just yet. To inspire you to look your fabulous best and avoid any party dressing pitfalls, we put together a gallery of celebrity style hits and misses and asked Gemma Rose Breger (@GemmaRoseBreger) at Carol Hayes Management for her expert opinion. Gemma is one of London’s top stylists, and her super-impressive client list ranges from big stars like Jennifer Hudson and Olivia Palermo, through to leading fashion glossies and high end brands. Look and learn from the stars who get it right, and, sometimes, so horribly wrong.

Hit
Working classic after-dark glamour, Lauren Goodger opts for a classy figure-hugging maxi, an ideal pick for her curvy figure. Gemma is full of praise for Lauren’s demure red carpet get-up. ‘She looks gorgeous in this asymmetric gown by Lipsy. The oversized sleeve balances perfectly with the body-skimming shape and I love the shoulder embellishment – it keeps the dress on trend and adds a quirky effect to the whole ensemble.’

Miss
There’s a fine line between figure-hugging and overly tight. Unfortunately, Lauren appears to have crossed it with a frock that seems two sizes toosmall. ‘This House of Dereon dress is the wrong fit for Lauren’s frame,’ says Gemma. ‘She’s got stunning curves and should wear clothes that compliment them. If she had paired the dress with an oversized blazer, it would have looked far more flattering. Lauren needs to remember she has amazing legs and that there’s no need to flash too much skin – if she’s wearing a mini with her pins exposed, she should try to cover up more on top.’

Hit
When it comes to figure-enhancing party dressing, choosing the right sort of fabric can work wonders: Kelly Osbourne shows off her svelte silhouette in soft, draping chiffon, a look that gets the big thumbs-up from Gemma. ‘Kelly has got it so right in this Badgley Mischka outfit. The long lines of the jacket elongate her figure, the nude colour of the dress is perfect with her pale skin tone, and the black belt nips in her waist to show off her curves.’

Miss
A poor choice of material here does nothing for Kelly’s figure. ‘She hasn’t got it right with this vintage Chanel dress,’ says Gemma. ‘The satin fabric clings in the wrong places and is pulling over her stomach. Not a flattering look. She should have worn a loose grungy T-shirt over the top half to make it look like a skirt and top combo. Sadly, satin is only a safe fabric for those with a model-esque figure, and even then it can still be a risk as there are always lumps and bumps that can’t be hidden – this type of clingy material exaggerates every single blemish.’

Hit
Highlighting your best bits and playing down any imperfections is key to successful party dressing: Khloe Kardashian gets it spot on with a two-piece LBD that shows off her assets: those long legs and that hourglass waist. Gemma’s take on this flattering look? ‘Khloe looks amazing in her black Gucci dress. The nipped-in waist and prom skirt are perfect for her figure, and the narrow pleats elongate her never-ending legs. The studded bowed Louboutins are the icing on the cake – they make the dress look so fierce.

Miss
If you’re carrying a little extra weight, it’s never a good idea to swamp yourself in billowing material: Khloe looks far larger than she actually is in this overblown Gucci gown. ‘The style is wrong for Khloe’s figure,’ says Gemma. ‘She seems to be swimming in fabric. The dress is just so shapeless, and the balloon sleeves are too oversized. That pussy bow around her neck cuts off her body which makes her look chunky. This dress would look so much better if it was sleeveless and had no tie around the neck, and adding a long drapey necklace would help elongate her silhouette.’

Hit
You’ll stand out for all the right reasons if you sport a hue that works with your complexion: Uma Thurman’s shimmery gold Lanvin dress gets Gemma’s seal of approval. ‘The warm metallic colour compliments her honey skin tone perfectly, and the trench coat style is a fantastic choice: it adds volume in all the right areas to her tall, statuesque frame. Tying the belt at the side is an effective body shape trick – it’s always the most flattering place as it deflects attention up and away from the stomach.’

Miss
If you opt for volume on your lower half, go for a close-fitting top. It’s a golden style rule that Uma appears to have overlooked here. ‘Uma usually gets it right, so it’s a shame to see her in something that doesn’t work on her svelte Amazonian figure,’ says Gemma. This Lanvin outfit is too shapeless and voluminous for her. ‘The black silk-taffeta skirt would have looked so much more flattering teamed with a fitted vest-style top and a chunky statement necklace. She needs to show more skin!’

Hit
You can’t go wrong with a well-cut LBD, and Kirsten Dunst ticks all the boxes in her covetable black frock. Gemma rates her choice highly. ‘This is one of the best outfits I’ve seen Kirsten in. She’s wearing vintage Versace, and the light chiffon fabric combined with the cut-out back and pointed heels looks ultra-glam. The dress sits below the knee which can sometimes cut off a petite figure, but as it’s fitted around her legs and she has enough skin showing on top and at the back, it’s a super-flattering length for her. This look is sexy yet so chic.’

Miss
An LBD that tapers out too much at the waist can overwhelm a petite silhouette: Gemma isn’t too taken with Kirsten’s fetish-inspired Derek Lam dress for obvious reasons. ‘The A-line cut of the skirt doesn’t suit her petite figure and the heavy black Chanel booties are a bit OTT. Her boobs look uncomfortably squished, too. A lighter strappy heel would have softened the outfit, and a smattering of jewellery would have helped the ensemble look less stark and intense.’

Hit
Blessed with an hourglass shape? A dress that hugs the hips and tapers out at the calf will balance out proportions and enhance your curves: Christina Aguilera’s maxi gets Gemma’s vote. ‘She looks outstanding in this Zuhair Murad dress. It’s the perfect shape for her – the mermaid tail bottom slims out her hips and bust, and the black velvet bow around her tiny waist puts all the focus on the smallest part of her body.’

Miss
Oh dear. The curse of the overly tight dress strikes again. Christina’s clingy body con look wins no plaudits from Gemma. ‘Sadly for Christina, this Hervé Léger isn’t doing her shapely figure any favours. The colour is washing her out – she should stick with bolder shades. And she really should be wearing a pair of Spanx under that dress as there’s a tell-tale VPL and lumpy bits around her hips. She’s got such a sexy body, but she should stick to either legs or cleavage on show, never both.’

Hit
Wearing bright red is not for the faint-hearted, but this vibrant hue works wonderfully on Mary J Blige according to Gemma. ‘This beauty of a red dress Mary J is wearing is RM by Roland Mouret. The colour looks sensational with her skin tone. The square neckline perfectly frames her décolletage and the cap sleeves balance out her hips. Those nude shoes are a nice touch, as the subtle colour lets the dress do all the talking.’

Miss
An ill-fitting maxi dress and badly matched accessories equal a fashion faux pas for Mary J. ‘This leopard one-shoulder dress by Roberto Cavalli isn’t working on Mary J’s figure,’ explains Gemma. ‘The busy print combined with the roomy shape makes her look very wide around the hips and midriff. And those glitzy oversized earrings don’t blend well with the bohemian style of the dress – she should have accessorised with long feather earrings instead. Mary J has an enviable figure but you can’t tell with this frock.’

Hit
Subtly showing off a little flesh can add some sass to a timeless LBD: Katie Holmes dresses her age for once, and Gemma is impressed. ‘This frock is a big hit for Katie. She’s wearing her own brand, Holmes & Yang, and is dressing far younger than usual – let’s not forget she’s in her early 30s, so there’s no need for her to wear frumpy clothes. The deep V-neck, cut-out back and pleated skirt are ultra-flattering, and draw the eye to her best feature, that tiny waist. She’s gone for an excellent footwear choice – nude shoes are always a safe option as they can elongate the legs.’

Miss
Covering up too much is a no-no. Lost in her dress, Katie undoes all her good work with this frou-frou fuchsia confection. ‘It’s far too oversized on her,’ says Gemma. ‘She’s drowning in fabric which makes her look a lot bigger than the tiny size six she actually is – always remember to show a little skin as it’s more flattering than covering your body from high neckline to toes. And to make matters worse, the colour is not so great on her either – she has quite a lot of pink in her skin tone and the dress only emphasises that.’

Hit
Looking sexy needn’t mean getting it all out. Gemma reckons Lauren Pope strikes the right tone here. ‘Lauren has struck the perfect balance between showing some skin but not too much in this red Honor Gold mini dress. With its high neck and long sleeves, it looks gorgeous on her. The sleeves are a sheer lace which stops the dress looking too heavy. The metallic accessories are a nice touch, and tone down the bold red colour so it doesn’t look too scary-bright.’

Miss
Can someone please remind Lauren that less is sometimes more? ‘She’s really let herself down with this Louis Heal dress,’ Gemma says. ‘Lauren has a stunning figure but there’s no need to flaunt it to this extent. She suits the colour extremely well but it’s hard to even notice when her whole body is on display. You can see the tit tape on her thigh, so I’m sure she had quite a struggle throughout the night holding the whole thing in place . It’s so much sexier to keep something to the imagination, and this dress would have looked absolutely gorgeous with a mid-thigh split, rather than a mid-body split!’

Hit
A body con dress that fits beautifully is always a winner. Cue Jennifer Love Hewitt in scene-stealing Dolce & Gabbana. Gemma applauds this well-thought-out pick. ‘Jennifer looks sensational in the bottle green dress. The shape is stunning on her, and super-flattering. The colour looks great with her skin tone and hair. The black skinny Lanvin belt and corseted shape of the dress flatter her ladylike curves. And she’s wearing gold Miu Miu peep-toes that bring out the metallic sheen on the dress even more. Gorgeous!’

Miss
Camouflaging your curves in sheets of fabric does not a good party outfit make. ‘This red Max Azria shirt dress swamps Jennifer’s figure,’ says Gemma. ‘It makes her look a few sizes larger than she actually is. As it sits right on her knee yet is oversized, it cuts off her legs and ankles, making them look stocky. This isn’t helped by T-bar shoes, which have a shortening effect on the legs. The batwing shape of the sleeves just add more unwelcome volume and they drown her body. If she’d swapped the red tie for a wide metallic belt, it would have given her a more defined shape.’

Celebrity Hair Makeovers

Some celebs are changing their hairstyles constantly. Some keep their signature locks the same color or length for some time before trying something else. Today we’ll show you the most impressive celebrity hair makeovers. So you can decide which looks you like best and leave your comments about it.

Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift is known for her blonde curls but when Taylor showed up at AMA’10 carpet with her locks straight and a fringe she’s definitely stolen all the attention. She’s looking fresh and more mature with her straight stylish locks more so when she wore them in a ponytail with bangs.

Khloe Kardashian

Khloe Kardashian was known for her dark brown long locks but not until she showed off her new red hair, which look absolutely gorgeous. It definitely adds to her charisma and enhances the skin tone. This tint is very fresh, copper looks great with Khloe’s skin and as a result she looks more interesting.

Emma Watson

Harry Potter star Emma Watson has chopped her long locks for which she and her character Hermione was known as soon as the last movie was shot. Emma said that because of her role she couldn’t change her hairstyle. But now she sports a pixie cut in a brown color.

Kristen Stewart

Kristen Stewart has been dark-haired, red-haired as well as blonde and now she’s appeared in Vogue February 2011 blonde again. Stewart looks a bit like Jennifer Connelly with her defined eyebrows and green eyes in contrast with the light hair color.

Celebrity Stylists’ Top 10 Summer Essentials

Bustier

Who Wore It Best?

Olivia Palermo VS Victoria Beckham

For a screening of new movie The Ledge a couple of weeks ago, Olivia Palermo pulled back her hair and popped on this zesty Victoria Beckham design with a eclectic choice of accessories: embellished brass cuff, hot pink petal clutch and leopard print heels.


Whenever we see a Victoria Beckham dress on a celeb, though, it’s bound to have been worn before – by the designer herself. Well, you would, wouldn’t you?! VB gave this beauty its first public outing back in November, when she took it out to dinner along with her favourite Victoria bag.

WINNER: There’s nothing in it when you’re just looking at two gorgeous ladies in a gorgeous dress – so it’s Posh’s flawlessly sleek accessorising that nudges her into the top spot.

Kate Middleton vs Sarah Jessica Parker

Kate Middleton‘s love affair with Alexander McQueen is about as well-documented as it gets. So we couldn’t help but feel that this cable-knit, sailor-style dress was a sartorially spot-on choice as part of her Canada tour wardrobe.

…It also fits with the austerity drive too, as it’s not a new-season design. In fact, Sarah Jessica Parker wore the same dress in navy (along with a punchy pair of red mules and contrasting tan clutch) to celebrate her husband Matthew Broderick being awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame all the way back in 2006.

WINNER: We can’t help but feel that Kate’s take on this dress is a little uninspired. SJP edges it thanks to her fearless shoe choice.

Olivia Palermo vs Elen Rivas


Just when we thought Olivia Palermo couldn’t get any cooler, she shows up on the front row of a Couture show in Paris wearing a stunning lampshade dress from Zara – yes, it’s from the high street! – accessorised to the hilt with feathers and bling. Bravo!

Unfortunately for Elen Rivas, the very same day that Olivia was styling it up in the fashion capital she was papped wearing exactly the same design – in with a bad pose and with unfortunate rogue bra strap on the loose. We do rate her candy-coloured peeptoes, though.

WINNER: Olivia’s super-polished take on this dress earns her a no-contest win.

Jessica Szohr V Irina Shayk

Gossip Girl star Jessica Szohr looked cute as a button when she wore this beachy Raquel Allegra tie-dye maxi dress with a bouffant ponytail and flat sandals to an event promoting So.Be drinks.

We wonder whether Ronaldo’s squeeze, Irina Shayk, was paying attention? Just a few days later, we spotted the model wearing exactly the same dress, albeit cinched in with a silver belt and paired with a boxy white handbag and black gladiator sandals.

WINNER: Both girls have put their own stamp on this dress, but it’s Jessica’s easy, breezy summer style that does it for us.

Paris Hilton V Katie Price

Talk about a blast from the past! Paris Hilton wore this blue asymmetric Brian Lichtenberg dress to the Fox Reality Awards back in 2009, accentuating its shape with a sculptural up-do.

Katie Price probably thought enough water had passed under the fashion bridge to get away with wearing the same design – albeit in red, and with loose hair – to the Terrence Higgins Trust Gala dinner a couple of weeks ago. But nothing gets past our eagle eyes, Katie!

WINNER: Paris’ sophisticated take on the look wins hands down for us – and we’re suckers for blonde on blue.

Emma Roberts vs Laura Bailey

It’s no secret that Emma Roberts is a Chanel devotee, so we weren’t surprised to see her on the front row of the label’s spring/summer 2011 catwalk show in this classic blue tweed dress with flirty feather trim in March.

Brit model Laura Bailey followed suit (well, dress), a few months later at the Royal Academy of Arts preview at Somerset House. Like Emma, she kept her blonde locks loose and opted for a neat clutch and closed-toe platform heels to finish.

WINNER: It’s a tough one, but we think Emma just pips Laura to the prize.

Diane Kruger vs Natalie Massenet

Diane Kruger caused quite the stir in this neon lace-panelled maxi dress with contrast belt at the Liaisons au Louvre event in Paris last month. The distinctive design is by hot new name-to-know Alessandra Rich.

…But eagle-eyed style watchers will have known that already, as Net-A-Porter founder Natalie Massenet – whose online boutique is championing the label – debuted it at the Royal Academy of Arts preview at Somerset House at the beginning of June.

WINNER: The nonchalent blonde waves, the strappy blush sandals, the micro-clutch… This is a triumph for Diane.

Christina Aguilera vs. Kristen Stewart

Christina Aguilera stepped out in this asymmetric lace Valentino cocktail dress – accessorised with her usual va-va-voom armoury of bombshell tresses, red lip, full-on tan and peeptoe heels – for the 2nd Annual Mary J Blige Honors Concert in New York last month.

Proving that it’s not what you wear, it’s the way that you wear it, Kristen Stewart wore exactly the same dress in a completely different way (messy up-do, closed-toe heels, natural skintone) for a screening of Welcome To The Rileys back in October 2010.

WINNER: Kristen’s demure take on this wins hands down for us. Sorry, Xtina!

Kate Middleton vs. Lydia Bright

Kate Middleton earned Reiss’ Shola dress a gazillion column inches when it was the first post-honeymoon look she was pictured in. Oh, and she also happened to be chatting to Michelle Obama at the time. Talk about a double whammy.

Pity, then, TOWIE‘s Lydia Bright, who was snapped just a week later in the same design as she did a spot of shopping in London.

WINNER: Oh, Lydia, honey. This was one battle you were never going to win – so why even try?

Ciara vs. Kylie Minogue

For Clive Davis’ Pre-Grammy Gala earlier this year, US singer Ciara ensured all eyes were on her by keeping the lacing on her gorgeous micro mini Emilio Pucci dress loose and pairing it with lashings of diamond accessories.

Kylie, meanwhile, took a more conservative approach when she wore the same dress to a theatre opening night last month; pulling it in tighter, and adding two actual feathers for a neat styling one-two.

WINNER: Ciara, there’s no denying that you look seriously hot, but Kylie and Pucci go together like Lagerfeld and Chanel. Kylie wins!

Kate Bosworth vs. Taylor Swift

No wonder Kate Bosworth looks so pleased with herself. This lust-worthy white lace dress, which she was snapped in out and about in Colorado a few weeks ago, is a £48 Topshop treasure. The actress made a monochrome statement by adding opaque tights and killer Mulberry boots.

…But Taylor Swift had already set the sartorial standard, pairing the dress with bare legs and, ingeniously, a black tulle underskirt and belt when she was spotted in it in London the week prior.

WINNER: Taylor’s only gone and done it – out-styled the style queen herself! Ms Swift, we salute you.

Olga Kurylenko vs. Nicky Hilton

Bond girl Olga Kurylenko snapped up this stunning silver Giorgio Armani cocktail dress with origami fan detailing before taking her place on the front row of the designer’s couture show in Paris earlier this year. Who can blame her? Simple black accessories finished off the look.

Fast forward four months, and Nicky Hilton put a different spin on the dress with a strict updo and coordinating silver shoes and jewellery at the 18th Annual Race To Erase MS gala in NYC.

WINNER: There really isn’t much in this one, but we’re handing it to Olga. This dress requires some smouldering and Nicky’s look is edging prim.

Cameron Diaz vs. Pippa Middleton

Back in 2009, Cameron Diaz teamed this hot red Alexander McQueen gown with vertiginous Salvatore Ferragamo heels and an up do for the Golden Globes – and won critical approval for her bared-back, sexed up style.

So who would’ve believed that, two years later, we’d see the same dress – albeit slightly modified – sashaying down the aisle at the most celebrated royal wedding in decades? Pippa Middleton is the most unlikely style crush to have come out of the occasion (we already loved The Queen, FYI).

WINNER: It has to be Pippa. Not only was the occasion momentous, but the rear view of her in this dress is now an internet phenomenon. Respect!

Rose McGowan vs. Kate Middleton

Rose McGowan dazzled in this hot pink Issa dress at this year’s SAG awards, styling it up Studio 54-style with sexy loose waves and a chunky cuff.

Kate Middleton‘s Issa obsession is well-documented, so it’s little wonder that she was also spotted rocking the same dress before she was a married woman. Kate paired hers with a black clutch bag, diamond earrings and, unsurprisingly, a more conservative neckline.

WINNER: Tough one. But this dress was made for turning heads, so it’s Rose’s out-and-out ‘look at me!’ take on it that wins out for us.

Katherine Jenkins vs. Brooklyn Decker

Katherine Jenkins loves a bit of Victoria Beckham, so we were pleased to see that this gorgeous caramel fitted dress (which features a zip full down the back) made the cut when she attended an event at the Royal Albert Hall in March.

The dress was also the dress of choice, however, for US starlet Brooklyn Decker, who wore it to Country Music Awards in Las Vegas. Check those curves!

WINNER: While it’s impossible to choose between the girls in the dress itself, Brooklyn just edges this one on account of her shoes – Katherine’s look a little clumpy and uninspired in comparison – and that divine, directional bob.

Abbie Cornish vs. Chelsea Clinton

Aussie actress Abbie Cornish played it safe on the red carpet at the premiere of her new film, Limitless, last month. You can’t go far wrong in an LBD – especially if it’s current season Lanvin. She kept the rest of her look understated with a black clutch and heels, and a classic gold watch.

Chelsea Clinton had exactly the same idea back in December – she wore the same dress for The Clinton Foundation’s Millennium Network Event in LA with thick black tights and, interestingly, even less jewellery than Cornish.

WINNER: Congrats, Abbie! We think this dress calls for bare legs to show it off to its full potential, so you’ve got it spot on.

Christine Bleakley vs. Zara Phillips

Christine Bleakley pulled out all the stops at the premiere of her film A Turtle’s Tale, rocking this leather-trimmed Burberry trench coat – which would set you back an eye-watering £1,895, fashion fans – with black jeans and V-cut shoe-boots by Christian Louboutin.

Not normally known for her fashion cred, royal yoof Zara Phillips impressively beat Bleakley to the punch by a week, debuting the very same coat with thick black opaque tights, strappy Burberry heels, shades and a beret to the Cheltenham festival.

WINNER: You’re always going to look great in a design like this, so it’s Zara’s military-inspired super-styling does it for us. Sorry, Christine!

Rosamund Pike vs. Alexa Chung

Talk about out of this world! Rosamund Pike snaffled this Christopher Kane galaxy-print dress back in January for the New York premiere of her new film, Barney’s Version, teaming it with a simple pair of black opaques, black heels and a red carpet-ready box clutch.

Trendsetter Alexa Chung was quick to hop on the extra-terrestrial bandwagon, rocking exactly the same look – right down to the mussed-up hair and black tights – to the NME Awards last month.

Winner: It’s near impossible to separate the two – but we’re handing this victory to Rosamund for getting into the spirit with that amazing orb ring.

Kate Beckinsale vs. Amanda Peet

Kate Beckinsale wore this Nina Ricci lace confection in pink to an LA screening of Nowhere Boy last September. Keeping her hair and make-up pared back, she teamed it with simple nude peeptoes and a bronze clutch to set off her California glow.

Almost exactly six months later, Amanda Peet rocked the white version to the Independent Spirit Awards – putting a wintery spin on it by adding sheer black polka-dot tights and black peeptoe Mary-Janes.

Winner: Kate’s relaxed, sunny take on this look wins hands down for us. Amanda’s harsh black accessories, though not awful, seem to detract from the prettiness of the dress.

Lindsay Lohan vs. Kelly Osbourne

This Alexander Wang denim and leather jacket has been a mainstay in Lindsay Lohan’s wardrobe for a couple of years. Here, she gives it another airing in LA with a trusty pair of leggings and white T, accessorised with teetering brown platforms, sunnies and a panama hat.

Kelly O had the same idea earlier this month, throwing on her Wang over a white T and black trousers – but upping the glam stakes into the bargain with Monroe-esque waves and a slick of red lipstick.

Winner: Lindsay just can’t compete with sheer fashion force of Kelly’s immaculate styling. Kelly wins!

Pixie Geldof vs. January Jones

Pixie Geldof went dotty at the House Of Holland show at London Fashion Week. Literally. Never one to do things by halves, she teamed her navy wide-leg Topshop trousers with a matching blouse  - and came off looking quite fabulous, actually.

Across the pond, January Jones dressed down her Topshop purchase with black boots, a denim jacket and a plain knit as she headed to her car in LA last week.

Winner: Controversial, we know, but Pixie has wowed us here. (Though to be fair to January, probably couldn’t look bad even if she tried.)

Kate Beckinsale vs. Kim Kardashian

At last year’s Cannes Film Fesitival, Kate Beckinsale looked every inch the movie goddess as she took to the red carpet in this elaborately-pleated Nina Ricci gown. Those glossy, honey waves and chandelier drop earrings are pure A-list.

Nine months down the line reality TV hottie Kim Kardashian had the same idea, wearing the gown to a Golden Globes after party – albeit with slightly more dramatic styling in the hair and make-up department.

Winner: Kate is blowing away all the competition this month! It’s a close call, but her more natural styling gives this stunning dress more room to shine.

Olivia Palermo vs. Chloe Green

If there’s a Topshop hero piece to be had, you can guarantee that Olivia’s going to be the girl to bag it. She – somewhat controversially, it has to be said – teamed this stand-out maxi skirt with a chunky jumper and tan belt to sit front row at the London Fashion Week spring/summer 2011 shows.

…But she has competition in the way of Chloe Green, whose papa actuallyownsTopshop – tough break, Olivia. Just a day later, she stole Olivia’s style thunder by wearing the same distinctive skirt with a faux fur-shouldered jacket and long-sleeved navy T.

Winner: It’s a victory for Chloe! We see where Olivia was going with this but, when it comes to the crunch, we just don’t think she pulled it off.

Brooklyn Decker vs. Tess Daly

Brooklyn Decker took to the red carpet in Germany for her flick Just Go With It in this showstopping split-leg purple jumpsuit by Max Mara, which she teamed with strappy coral heels and a dischevelled up-do. We don’t blame her for pulling out all the stops – co-star Jennifer Aniston was also in attendance…

Proving herself to be a bit of a Max Mara obsessive, Tess Daly wore the same design to this year’s Brit Awards (it’s one of a handful of Max Mara pieces she’s been seen in of late). Here, she added a Grecian twist with a silver arm cuff and plaits, plus closed-toe silver heels.

Winner: Brooklyn gets our vote. Such a strong design calls for pared-back styling, and we can’t get enough of that colour pop at the heel.

Cheryl Cole vs. January Jones

The Versace dress Cheryl wore for the National Television Awards just a couple of weeks ago had the best of both worlds: a conservatively chic front panel, and an über-sexy, ultra-revealing cut-out back.

But this dress had already had its A-list moment, worn by January Jones to a fashion industry party back in November last year.

Winner: January’s up-do really lets the detail of this dress shine through. A rare loss for Cheryl!

Katy Perry vs. Ashanti

It was an unusually tame look for quirk queen Katy Perry, but she still looked stunning in this floor-length, metallic print Issa gown at a charity benefit in December. Loving the side-swept locks, Katy.

But, just a month before, another pop princess had already debuted the very same dress. Ashanti sported hers on the red carpet of a New York awards ceremony, with a half-up, half-down ‘do.

Winner: Since both girls steered clear of heavy accessories, it’s the hair and make-up that will win this round – and Katy’s pink lips, smoky eyes and to-die-for beachy locks are the clear victors.

Nicole Richie vs. Ellen Pompeo

It’s pretty handy designing your own collection, because it means you get to wear exactly what you want all the time! Nicole Richie was doing just that way back in 2009, when she donned this sparkly Winter Kate number with black tights and YSL heels for a New Year’s Eve party in Las Vegas.

Exactly a year later, Grey’s Anatomy actress Ellen Pompeo got her hands on the same dress for another Vegas party. The way she wore it? With black tights and black heels, just like Nicole!

Winner: We’d have preferred to see both ladies sans tights, but nevertheless we reckon this gold beauty fits better with Nicole’s natural, boho aesthetic than with Ellen’s. She is the designer, after all…


What do you think?

Kerry Washington vs. Kate Middleton

Gorgeous actress Kerry Washington is famed for her ultra-pretty red carpet choices – and this creamy Temperley London dress was no exception.

But there’s more than one way to wear this piece, as Princess-to-be Kate Middleton proved last Christmas matching it with a traditional blazer and sheer tights.

Winner: If this were a hair contest, Kate would win hands down, but those dated sheer tights means she loses out to Kerry in the style stakes on this one.

Claire Danes vs. Jaime Winstone

We thought this nude, criss-cross gown couldn’t get any more gorgeous when we spotted it on Claire Danes at 2004′s Costume Institute Gala…

…until Jaime Winstone rocked it even better at last year’s BAFTAs with a retro hair ‘do and strong make-up.

Winner: Jaime’s bags of attitude and daring beauty look are what won the GLAMOUR.COM girls over this time.

Audrina Patridge vs. Khloe Kardashian

Tumbling curls and a single bracelet were all the accessories Hills star Audrina Patridge needed to rock this rich red Alexander McQueen gown on the red carpet for the series’ season 4 finale in 2008.

Fast forward to last month, and fellow reality TV star Khloe Kardashian dug the same dress out of the archives for the People’s Choice Awards, this time in light dove grey.

Winner: Khloe’s colour choice was pretty, but there’s no beating Audrina’s va-va-voom red.

10) KHLOE KARDASHIAN

The wife of: Lamar Odom (Los Angeles Lakers)

One third of the Kardashian sisters, Khloe, reportedly met Lamar Odom at a Hollywood party in August 2009, and after a whirlwind romance, the pair got married three months later. Lamar certainly didn’t find it hard to keep up with this Kardashian, that’s for sure.

Back in 1999, 21-year-old Kobe Bryant, who was then a rising star in the NBA, met 17-year-old Vanessa Laine when she was a back-up dancer.

The pair has been married for 10 years and they have two daughters together, Natalia Diamante and Gianna Maria-Onore.

7) MONICA

The wife of: Shannon Brown (LA Lakers)

Not to be outdone by teammates Kobe Bryant and Lamar Odom, Lakers’ back-up guard Shannon Brown found himself a pretty wife too: R&B singer Monica!

6) SILVIA LOPEZ

The girlfriend of: Pau Gasol (LA Lakers)

Silvia Lopez – a cheerleader for Dream Cheers, a traveling dance troupe – met Los Angeles Lakers forward Pau Gasol at the EuroBasket 2009 tournament, where Gasol was playing for his home country of Spain at that time.

5) GABRIELLE UNION

The girlfriend of: Dwyane Wade (Miami Heat)

‘Bring It On’ actress Gabrielle Union reportedly started dating Miami Heat’s Dwyane Wade when he was still going through a very ugly divorce battle with his estranged wife Siovaughn Funches.

4) KIM KARDASHIAN

The girlfriend of: Kris Humphries (New Jersey Nets)

Kim Kardashian has a soft spot for athletes, we can tell: a few months after dumping Dallas Cowboy wide receiver Miles Austin, she was seen in the arms of New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries.

How sweet is that?

2) ADRIANA LIMA

The wife of: Marko Jaric (Memphis Grizzlies)

Marko Jaric, a back-up guard from the Memphis Grizzlies, found himself an angel: a Victoria’s Secret Angel, to be exact. Jaric met Adriana Lima – the current face of Victoria’s Secret – back in 2006 and he proposed to her on her 27th birthday. They got married on Valentine’s Day of 2009, and they welcomed their first child, a daughter named Valentina, in September that year.

1) ALEKA KAMILA

The wife of: Peja Stojakovic (Dallas Mavericks)

Sure, Peja Stojakovic might not be scoring as much as he used to on the court, but he’s definitely scoring off the court. How do we know?

Coloured Denim

Sunday marks the official first day of Spring and many celebs have already started adding more colour in their closets in various ways; this week it was denim.

Stars like Khloe Kardashian, Rachel Bilson and Anna Kendrick were all spotted rocking coloured denim jeans recently.

As colour-blocking is clearly one of the biggest trends for Spring 2011, denim seems to be a great way to add a lot of colour to your look without totally overdoing it and leaving room for more.

Anna Kendrick attended the Rag & Bone dinner at Intermix in LA on Wednesday night in a pair of Rag & Bone green jeans. She kept things cool by adding a Rag & Bone black sheer blazer, a Rag & Bone white top, gold accessories and Botkier black open-toe sandals.

Rachel Bilson was spotted leaving her hair salon in a pair of burgundy Paige denim jeans. A floral printed scarf, black blazer, Burberry Prosum Knight bag the from Spring 2011 collection and classic Ray-Ban Wayfarers top off this look.

Coloured denim is nothing new. Of course we remember SJP’s bright and yummy outfit of red jeans, a pink t-shirt and the Halston Heritage tie-dye sac bag she rocked back in September last year in New York City. It looked great then and stars made it look just as good this week.

I know I can definitely recall a few colourful jeans in my past; red, blue and even yellow.

It’s a wonderful way to stand out in style as we all prepare to say hello to warmer days.
