Red Carpet Hair Review: Reese Witherspoon's modern, sexy take on big, toussled bed hair Reese Witherspoon is the bomb(shell) at tonight's Golden Globes. That Zac Posen mermaid dress sculpts her curves in a way that we haven't seen since Thierry Mugler, the original, not the Nicola Formichetti redeux. Reese's look is total modern bombshell.. well, the spray tan looks a tad dark in HD, but that aside, she looks fantastic.

Red Carpet Beauty Review: Dolly Girl pretty makeup It's hard not to love the one-of-a-kind Prada embellished gown with emerald bodice. After all, it totally compliments the one-of-a-kind style of its wearer. Zoey Dechanel beats to her own quirky fashion drum, and that's what we love about her, right down to her kooky "tuxedo" nails. No natural makeup needed, but a quirky, pretty doll look mastered by Rimmel of London makeup artist Jorgee.

Rooney Mara in Nina Ricci Golden Globes Fashion Red Carpet Review: As the celebrities make their way through red carpet arrivals, it's clear the minimalist looks are the most stunning. It's easy to make a frothy dress look glam. Pile on the fabric, cinch in the waist, add some glimmer and the princess is good to go. But when it comes to sophisticated chic, a well-cut dress with strong lines is stunning beyond compare without wearing the wearer. Rooney Mara in perfect black Nina Ricci that she described to E! as being "comfortable and simple" is one of the most spectacular looks on the red carpet that we've seen in a while. Well, except for the last time Rooney was on the

I'll Have What She's Having: Belly Baring Chic Cropped tops paired with flirty a-line skirts in an ode to retro Italian starlet style were de riguer on many of the Spring/Summer 2012 runways and were one of the season's most surprising trends to take in considering that it takes not only confidence to pull off, but a killer, toned body as well. While on a photo call in Berlin for her latest movie "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," actress Rooney Mara donned a simple, refined take on the trend from Miu Miu, making her the first to take a chance on highlighting her abs off the beach in a subtle mid-riff baring ensemble. For her it works here because

Actress Rooney Mara cut an ultra-chic swath in a decadent ivory column dress from Givenchy Haute Couture by Riccardo Tisci at the premiere of ‘The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo' in London just the other day and made a case for red-carpet whites and got it right. Cut-outs give her dress a contemporary spin and save it from teetering on the matrimonial while her sleek hair and subtle make-up lend her look an unexpected urbane yet reserved elegance. Everything about her look is just right, making it one of favorite red-carpet looks as of late. -Naveed Hussain

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?

The British Fashion Council is what one would say is the CFDA of England. The annual British Fashion Awards yesterday had some pretty keen picks as winners: Sarah Burton of Royal Wedding fame, for Alexander McQueen won Designer of the Year (video below jump) Victoria Beckham won the Designer Brand Award (video below jump) Alexa Chung won the British Style Award Christopher Kane won the New Establishment Award while Sam Gainsbury of Gainsbury and Whiting won the Isabella Blow Award for Fashion Creator Stella McCartney won the Red Carpet Award Watch Sarah Burton's acceptance speech for Alexander McQueen as she won Designer of the Year at the British Fashion Awards: Alexander McQueen in stock now: More Alexander McQueen...

Kristen Stewart and Ashley Greene, the starlets of Twilight's "Breaking Dawn," are being touted as striking a fierce fashion face-off against each other at the movie's recent premiere and while we think that's just a bunch of Hollywood hype for you, we have to admit that in our books, Stewart's ensemble(and date!) clearly make her the winner. For one, Greene's(above & below) strapless scarlet floor-length Donna Karan number with a swirling lace insert effect ages the young actress as its a tad too formal while having a loose, clumsy silhouette. And compared to Stewart's J. Mendel column dress with its devore velvet fabrication in a rich abstract texture with sheer panels and a come-hither slit, it also brings to mind

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.

I'll Have What She's Having: The right dose of color and simplicity Even though the tired term 'Old Hollywood Glamour' opens the door to a snotty case of pungent remarks for us, it does however come to mind every so often when we spot an actress bringing it to us completely updated. Case in point was Amber Heard at the New York premiere for ‘The Rum Diary’ at the Museum of Modern Art wearing Jean Paul Gaultier. What worked was the surprising elegance of seeing a striking beauty covered head-to-toe in a pleated however figure defining black maxi dress that was simple in detail minus when she turned to reveal an open slit back. While we admire that the only glimpse of skin was saved for
