Grammy Fashion- The Red Carpet That Is Thankfully Never Boring

The red carpet that won't put you to sleep It may seem a bit not (fashion) politically correct, but I cannot bare to see one more celebrity looking like a runaway prom queen or mother of the bride on the red carpet. Right in the nick of time before we have to start power-loading the style caffeine for Oscar time, comes the Grammy's... or fashion's answer to take a risk and shine. Nicki Minaj kept her signature kewpi doll kooky on and raised the bar to hugh to style in a leopard Givenchy Haute Couture by Riccardo Tisci "ensemble" with matching matching leopard printed belt, gloves, leggings and shoes.

Jane Badler, Age-Appropriate Fabulous

I'll Have What She's Having: Sleek, chic, and sexy at a certain age. Young girls dressed like old ladies. Middle-age woman dressed like young chiquitas. It can get confusing.

Style is about looking gorgeous, fabulous and confident, without an expiration date. And, Jane Badler looks hot. Why? Because she looks stylish, vital and in control. >>MORE: Age Appropriate Style Jane Badler at the "V" Season 2 Photocall in Madrid There's nothing fussy or girly to drag her down. Her clothes are a play on modern classics but not trendy. Sure Badler also can wear a more

Bianca Jagger Rocks Roberto Cavalli Like A White Horse

I'll Have What She's Having: I've been mesmerized by her style since Studio 54 Think of this as post kismet... or some odd coincidence of If You Could Read My Mind. Just as Brad Boles and I were reminiscing about Disco Sally and Studio 54, this photo of the eternally gorgeous Bianca Jagger, dressed in a green caftan by Roberto Cavalli, turns up in my inbox! Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood but as a Native New Yorker, 54 and Disco Nights were part of my coming of age. Enough tired Studio 54 music puns, but it is hard for me to not make the association as seeing Bianca on the dance floor or lounging on a sofa are iconic

Madonna Directs a Miu Miu Video, Apparently, Sort of

Photo booth mega star... APPARENTLY, as legend has it, according to pagesdigital, Mert & Marcus were shooting the fall Miu Miu campaign when a friend dropped by. The friend happened to be Madonna who had some thoughts about the shoot. Backseat posing pointers then turned into an impromptu Madonna directed fall 2010 Miu Miu campaign video. There were even some Madonna-esque dance steps thrown in while the models preened around in a photobooth. The score is a remix of Boy George's "Generations of Love," which make us wonder if Madonna and Boy George patched up their nasty bit or the whole story is a hoax.... ...we just kinda like the fun of it all (clever masking those odd Miu Miu

Zooey Deschanel and Katy Perry Do Share a Striking Resemblance

Zooey Deschanel and Katy Perry They're the spitting image of each other, but thankfully in a very GOOD way! Usually those separated at birth coincidences are pretty darn howlingly funny. But here's one where it's two pretty ladies each with very distinctive personal style... unlike the orange Jersey clones. I never really thought of it, but thanks to UnrealityMag, for spotting Zooey Deschanel and Katy Perry in the same shot, and circumventing any possible confusion other than they both have huge blue eyes and a penchant for prints. photo via unrealitymag
