Beyonce bought this lucite crib and it’s pretty darn fab!

Vetro Crib
I can see clearly now, the baby's here... First time moms always lament over the right crib to buy... I know I drove myself crazy. Cribs, for the most part, are not particularly decor friendly when you live in a modern home. Then there are the cribs that look like prisons with their  safety rails blocking view of the precious one. US magazine reports that Beyonce purchased a lucite Nurseyworks Vetro crib back in November for baby Blue Ivy. The crib has a hefty price tag, but if you can afford it, it offers a full-on view of baby so concerned parents can have an uninterrupted view of their little one. It's gorgeous and super sleek too. Available at Amazon.com

The Most Annoying Fashion and Beauty Masquerades of 2011

Kim Kardashian hawking her fragrance in Las Vegas
Or, veiled attempts by real women to impersonate drag queens! I continue to find it mind-boggling that a woman feels that to look attractive she must wear embalming makeup, mink armpit hair length false eyelashes, Tressy extensions, an orange tan, and have her boobies pushed up to her enhanced cushion lips. The heightened glam caricatures that female impersonators do best is campiness for theatricality; not for a real life way to dress to go to the mall to buy more and more and more. When you want to see some screaming good drag, leave it to the boys. READ: The Top 10 Fashion Moments of 2011 This media-perpetuated, bizarre idea of looking crass has come to a head in 2011. I would

The Top 10 Fashion Moments of 2011- The Year In Review

While fashion's come & go, they do serve as a sign of the times we live in and work as a time capsule of sorts full of memories, moments and merriment. Looking back at the sartorial world of 2011, what comes to mind may be the abundance of too much too fast (so much fashion, so many news outlets, too many designers) -that's why we've complied a shortlist of the good, the bad and the boring. From Missoni madness to celebrating fallen designers, it was definitely a year full of fashion surprises and feats. Fashion Designers Ride the Merry-go-Round- From who will take John Galliano's job at Dior (above, post Galliano) to the comings & goings of chief designers at Balmain, Chloe, Cacharel,

Angelina Jolie is one smart cookie when it comes to an evening wrap that’s really meant for travel

I'll Have What She's Having: A cashmere wrap that does double-duty from red carpet to staying snuggly on an airplane Finding something to elegantly top an evening gown is no easy matter when, realistically, you're not on the glamourella circuit. Wouldn't it be fab to find a wrap to stay warm on your way out from the limo to the venue and wear it to stay snuggly on the airplane, or look chic when worn with a pair of jeans and a cashmere turtleneck? MORE: I'll Have What She's Having Angelina Jolie did just that on her way to the "In the Land of Blood and Honey" after party.  The navy White + Warren cashmere travel wrap, $295 at Saks.com or at whiteandwarren.com,

First Sarah Jessica Parker, now Blake Lively sports the fugliest Loubes

Christian Louboutin "Alex"
Help, I'm a celebrity and I'll wear anything for attention! I'm sorry, but in my opinion, you really MUST be a fashion victim to find these "lion paw" shoes remotely attractive.  We're not really fans of  designer damning around here, but these Christian Louboutin "Alex" pumps are for the birds. People see doctors to cure themselves of this First, Sarah Jessica Parker sported them in Moscow this summer and now Blake Lively is wearing them on the set of Gossip Girl. All I can say is that it's the one year anniversary of my foot surgery and I don't even think my feet looked that bad post op.  RadarOnline says they cost about $5,000.... Would you wear these? >> SHOP: Animal Prints

How to Look Sexy and Modern? Try some well-placed slits like Eva Green in Alexander McQueen

Eva Green an AW11 black split sleeve dress and Pre AW11 leopard print peep toe shoes by Alexander McQueen to the ‘The Rum Diary’ London
I'll Have What She's Having: Streamlined and bold slits in just the right places There's something about actress Eva Green's smart sexiness that reminds us of  the raw style of Italian actresses back in the 1950's via Veneto days. It's a control over non-fussiness and an emphasis on dynamic sex appeal and sultriness, best mastered in sleek, non revealing lines. Case in point: Eva's on trend, but not trendy, double-slit & slit sleeve Alexander McQueen LBD from AW11. Oh, and those luscious leopard print peep toe shoes also by Alexander McQueen.  WATCH: How to Accessorize a LBD and more LBD posts Smoldering liner and red lips keep the look graphic, clean and bold We saw the sexy open back slit on Amber

The “Lucky Stars” Material Girl Model Search Video with Mama Madonna and Lola

It's comforting to know that even in this behind-the-scenes' mockumentary, like any other teenager and their worrywart mom, Madonna's daughter Lola (yes, Lordes) doesn't pay much attention to her either.

Kate Middleton wears a rather bare dress for her and it looks amazing

Catherine, Duchess Of Cambridge Attends 'In Kind Direct' Charity Event At Clarence House
p.s.. It's not from this season! It's a First Lady and Royal day here at Fos today. I have to say that we've kept our pledge of only covering the looks that we feel are worth the second notice and offer something that YOU can take away. Kate Middleton stepped out for her first solo engagement as a royal yesterday and the blogosphere was aflutter about a perceived mark that was thought to be that of hair extensions. Instead, according to the dailymail.co.uk, "The spokesman for the Duchess at St James’s Palace confirmed last night that it was the result of surgery as a young child. ‘The scar related to a childhood operation,’ they said."

Isabel Toledo Spring 2012 Runway Collection In Miami

Besides having Michelle Obama as one of her most ardent celebrity clients, Cuban-born designer Isabel Toledo has been wowing critics and fashion fans including yours truly since she began her eponymous line in the mid-80's with her artisinal-minded, avant-garde confections and her deliberately off-the-radar cult of personality. MORE: FASHION SHOWS AND RUNWAY REVIEWS Leave it to Toledo to debut her Spring 2012 collection just weeks after the fashion-show season has ended and all the way down in Miami...Miami? Well, it makes sense after reading that the event was in conjunction with Vanidades' 6th annual 'Magia de la Moda' fashion event followed by the Fashion Group International honoring Toledo and her husband Ruben with a lifetime achievement award.

Kim Kardashian manages to take a perfectly fine– and loose-fitting– dress and make it look cheesy

With all the insane streams of money coming her way, Kim K still manages to look cheap. We get celebrity style pr tip sheets of almost every celebrity and celebutard that you can imagine wearing something or another.  Usually they end upon the trash, but this time I couldn't bear not to share this Kim Kardashian "celebrity style" alert as it's so tacky that I've got to hope no one out there wants to make it stick. We all know that  the Kardashian klan own a batch of boutiques, but did she have to wear the entire accessory department all at once? In defense of the Boulee Brynn dress, it's perfectly lovely in its BoHo styling, uneven hemline, and "Downtown"
