Dear Sharon: I was hoping you could help me with a problem I have finding stylish big guy clothes that fit me correctly and need some stylist advice to find a flattering style. I am a large size man who hates shopping for clothes because nothing fits due to my unnatural body shape. I usually get an XXL which fits my shoulders, but it is a little long and usually too tight around my midsection. However, an XXXL is just too loose around my body. Do you have any advice or styles I could use to help alleviate my stress when it comes to shopping? Any advice or help would be much appreciated!

Rewind, rewind, aaaaall the way back to Nicole Kidman's corkscrew curls. Well, it's been a long time coming and Nicole is rocking super stick straight hair at tonight's 19th Annual Sceen Actor's Guild Awards. We've got the down low on how YOU can switch up curly hair to super straight like Nicole's for a night. >>MORE: Red Carpet Here's the 411 on how to tame curly hair to super straight, like Nicole Kidman: Hairstylist David Babaii spotlighted Nicole's new bob cut by warming a small amount of IT&LY's Pure Water Drops in the palms of his hands before applying it through the hair.

We all dream about haute couture, but few, very few, of us can ever get close to it. But, by way of a little beautiful people watching from the Spring/Summer 2013 Haute Couture collections in Paris, there is ONE thing that we can all take away. At least from watching the glammed up attendees. A blast of red lipstick! Jessica Alba arrives at the Christian Dior Spring/Summer 2013 Haute-Couture show as part of Paris Week A very strong red lip, in all the shades from orange reds to blue reds, were the must-have celebrity beauty takeaway from Paris Couture Fashion Week. Need I say more? Just look at Jessica Alba battling her way in the snow to Christian Dior, above. >>RELATED:

With the lipsyncing brouhaha aside, Beyoncé did look stunning as she sang the National Anthem at the Inauguration. We were able to catch up with her makeup artist, Mally Roncal who worked with Beyonce for this special event and used products from her Mally Beauty line at QVC to share makeup tips from yesterday's event. This look "works on all ages, skin type and color," says Mally. Now, if we look at the photo above of Beyoncé with Mally, they kinda sorta really look alike. See, we told you that YOU can look like Beyoncé! Wink, wink. Check out Mally's step-by-step beauty tips and tricks below so you can get the look too: · To first set the skin, apply my Perfect Prep Poreless Primer

Truth be told, red is my favorite color for everything except party affiliation. The First Lady broke tide in a STUNNING Jason Wu red halter gown for the Inaugural gown first dance, and maybe, just maybe, that can be a sign of getting us all together. Far from the more girly white Jason Wu frock from 2009, this red draped chiffon and velvet number was sexy in the most powerful and in control nuance that a grown woman should master. Add The First Lady's new bangs, and Mrs. Obama stunned in a fresh and vibrant way that made you not only proud to be an American looking forward but proud that a woman of substance is in a place which she belongs.

A quick little reminder about staying youthful and keeping your personal brand both modern and vital. Case in point: Michelle Obama turned 49 today with a few new things: @FLOTUS (First Lady Of The United States), her Twitter handle where we got a first look at the First Lady's new hairstyle, BANGS! Yup, there is nothing like a new hairstyle to refresh your style, like Michelle Obama's bangs and layered do. It sets your look ahead of the curve and creates the image of a mindfulness for an understanding of progress, rather than settled into the past. Think about that as you present YOUR brand to the world. Our First Lady understands that it's about the details when it comes to

Ohh la la, the French really have a reason to stay too long at the fair! Forget Las Vegas, when there are fantastic and feathery costumes in Paris at the Musée des Arts Forains (the Museum of Fairground Art). Richard Nahem takes us there, cancan costumes included. --S.H.

Giorgio Armani Menswear Fall 2013 In their words… Giorgio Armani Menswear Fall 2013 : A strong and precise image. No flirtatious provocations that often amount to little more than sly trickery.
