I'll Have What She's Having: Vibrant red & some Jacob & Co. bling Beige, nude, taupe, and all those "new neutrals" are hotter than hot this season, but let's face it, they can wash you out. Runway after runway, model after model-- particularly at New York Fashion Week- all worked the Spring / Summer beige trend. But to be honest, after the third day of shows, it all morphed into one big beige blob for me. Close-up of Mila's bling from the Jacob & Co. Red Carpet Collection While beiges can be very soft and pretty, sometimes a few major accents that play off its neutrality are what it takes to turn a blah to wow. I love Milla Jovovich

Best of Resort Fashion- A Season Ahead, Just In Time

Resort runways are often a precursor to what's in store for Spring. Let's consider... A girl could lose her head. Or at least spin it around so many times that it will catapult her neck and land in a frisson of colliding fashion seasons that all ineditably fall into one: What looks right on YOU now!

In this insane goggle-muggle where fashion is shown in the time frame of when retailers need to place their orders for the following season and magazines need to pull for their

Truth be told, less is more when it comes to the perfect Oscar dress unless you aim to make a big bold statement on the red carpet. It's unfortunate that so many stylists got the memo on frothy dresses with full skirts and plenty of trains because by the end of the evening it was almost impossible to tell each ‘top of the wedding cake' dress from the next. But I do know that their celebrity inspired knock-offs will be coming to a prom near you. Sandra Bullock >> Don't miss OSCAR Fashion

Disorderly conduct: The new crystals put bling on its edge.

Glitz got roughed up and it looks fabulous When you are looking for a modern detail to update your look, think about a clustered blast of raw, haphazard crystals. The new bling has a gritty, offhanded elegance reminiscent of rock candy or shattered glass. What's modern is not the cheap trick sparkly bling many of us associate with pavé phone cases, cloyingly cute crystal encrusted novelty doodads, or glittering from a too tight T-shirt. Crystals now have an irregularity to them that looks fresh. SHOP: Swavorski Crystallized online “It's interesting, when I think of encrusted crystal, I think of Paris Hilton's Sidekick. It's a frosty crystal that has been so cheapened as it hit the mass market in a huge
