Downtown Diva

Beyonce is filming her Diva video in downtown Los Angeles. The song will be the next single off her I Am… Sasha Fierce album. The other single released as the same time is said to be Halo. This girl is working overtime with these two personalities. For Diva, she’s in full Sasha Fierce mode. She’s rocking what seems to be an oversized crown and these funky glasses.

Trend Tracker...SATC

Sex and The City has inspired more trends than we can count. One of the most notable being the bloom Carrie wore on a regular basis! Definitely tried that one. In the film version, maven, Patricia Field doesn't disappoint with the wardrobe. SJP alone has over 80 wardrobe changes! Be on the lookout for oh, so many trends to try. We've seen bold colors, metallics as neutrals and BELTS! Around just about every dress we've seen so far is a waist cinching belt. Will definitely be trying this one. It's a little more budget friendly, than say... Manolo's.

Did SATC change your style?

Jump for it!

There's almost nothing easier to wear than a sundress. You slip it on and go! So easy, so carefree. Imagine if you could feel that way about a pantsuit. Just as easy and flirty as a dress, but even more carefree because they're pants. Uber-designer Stella McCartney had done it again. She's created a one piece that combines all the things we love for this time of year. The absolute must have pretty florals, in flowy fabrics that feel divine when sliding across your skin. Perfect to rock for a night out and still works for daytime casual chic. Love it!

Maxing Out

Paris Hilton & Gwen Stefani

As the temperatures rise, the season brings the need for no-must, no-fuss attire. Coming on strong this year is the maxi dress. It's one trend that can be worn by anyone and look GREAT! Long-limbed sisters take note: this dress is definitely a friend of the tall girl! It shows off the long assets in a casual way that looks oh-so-chic. No need to be tall to make the look your own! For gals a little on the shorter side, work the look with strappy heeled sandals and look instantly taller and slimmer. It's a celeb fave for this time of year (especially for those with baby bumps)... but you don't have to be a-list to rock this look. Find great styles, in the budget, at sites like Victoriassecret.com

Trend Worthy?

I'm all for the "blast from the past" in the name of fashion. I really am. This particular trend, however, gives me pause. Straight from the nineties, It's the return of the color jean! From Rhianna to Cameron, everyone seems to jumping on board and it seems no hue is off limits. The most popular I've seen being scooped up by the fashion savvy? J and Company. They seem to have the market cornered on this particular trend. Others are definitely catching on though. I'm not sure I'm ready to board that train rainbow colored jeans. I wonder is this really coming back and if it's going to be around - I wish I had kept mine from the first go round.

Glad about it

Popping up on the toes of "it" girls everywhere gladiator sandals are a must-have for the summer! The shoe has several things working in its favor:

1. They're flat - casual days can be cute without a stiletto.

2. They come in colors that match everything - can you say gold, silver, fig brown and black!

3. There isn't just one gladiator look - find the one you love and rock it out!

4. You can find a pair that works with any budget. These lovelies are from Old Navy.

How many more reasons do you need to check out the trend o' the summer?

5. Did I mention they're super cute?

Lindsay's Leggings

It's a trend that isn't so new... but it seems to be sticking around. At least that what Lindsay Lohan is banking on. The sometimes starlet is hitting the market with her own line of leggings. My question, has this ship sailed?

French Chic

Maybe it's all the trips to Paris? Style icon in the making, Beyonce, has been spotted all over rocking a new accessory. No, not her wedding ring, a beret? I love the look! It can be casual cool or dress it up for chic evening look.

Pout it out!

I think it’s pretty proven that colors influence our mood. So if you’re feeling daring, no need to say a word, just let your lips do the talking! In case you missed the memo, the 80’s have made a comeback and pink pouty lips are the “it” thing for spring! You know the kind you couldn’t get enough of in the 80’s. It’s back… in a big way! Go bold and try this trend. One word of advice: have fun with the shade but try to stay away from the Pepto-Bismol pink. A good place to start your perfect pink color search would be MAC. The makeup giant has teamed up with designing duo, Heatherette for a collection of colors that will leave you speechless! Who better than the dynamic twosome to create your perfect eighties pout? Try their Hollywood Nights shade to get you going. I wouldn’t pair the look with anything too extreme. Translation: leave the neon at home. Let’s just go with one 80’s throwback at a time. Thankfully the trends from that decade have been limited to the good stuff. There were plenty of the bad to leave behind, I mean, shoulder pads anyone? Bad eighties flashback aside… Go all out! Consider finding your perfect pink pout a challenge!

Get Busy

For any fashionista, spring is an exciting time. It’s time to shed the winter blues and heavy coats for flowing fabrics and open toe shoes! This spring is no exception and there is no shortage of trends to covet! Get ready to pile it on! We all know that accessories can make or break any outfit. For the spring and summer months everything is going big… from bags to bangles and everything in between. This season, that area between your head and your shoulders is getting some extra attention. Some of our favorite glamazons have been seen on the red carpet with a little extra going on around the neck area. It seems the more you pile on the better! Necklaces are getting busier, longer and larger. It’s a trend that’s pretty easy to pull off as long as you remember some rules. If your top or dress already has embellishments, leave the layered necklaces at home. This look works best with a simple top or dress. It’s going to demand attention. No need to add extras and make it look too busy. There’s another trend getting some spotlight time – cuffs. From metal to stacked, it’s a look easy to love and bring out your inner warrior. Just make sure it’s more Fierce Fashionista and less Xena Princess Warrior.

Be there or be SQUARE

I’ve been waiting around for this one to make a comeback! It’s the return of the square toe pump. Fashion forward glamazons like SJP and Gweneth Paltrow have been ushering in the comeback of these foot faves. The reign of the pointy toe isn’t over but now there’s a more, ahem, comfortable alternative. With the square toe there’s no worry about toes being squished together like with a pointy toe shoe! You still get the effect of a stiletto leg lift but your feet don’t hate you for it. It's what I like to call sexy comfort!

May Flowers

Floral prints are definitely a trend getting a little love this spring. From Balenciaga to Pinko it's blooming in collections everywhere. Here's one reason - this isn’t your grandmas floral! You know the kind that reminded you of the sofa? No, the pretty patterns are softer this season. Many even have a little structure making florals a top pick for any occasion, even a stroll down the red carpet. Take advantage of the trend in flowy blouses and dresses! Don’t be afraid to try out some of the more structured styles. too.
