Grecian Goddess Intimate: Emma Roberts in Temperley London at the 4.3.2.1. premiere

This girl is so hard to catch up with! Just after my tribute post to this fresh faced actress, she takes my breath away a day later. Emma achieves the whimsical, hippie-chic goddess feel with little effort. The billowy Temperley London frock features romantic tiered sleeves with gold intricate embellishments all along the neckline and cut-out shoulders.
Tidbit: It's All About the Fit Do you know what saved this dress from looking like a maternity dress? The strategically placed shoulder cut-outs. It slims her upper portion by allowing her shoulders to peek through. The cut-outs also helped in terms of fit, allowing the beautifully tiered fabric along her upper arm to drape naturally.
Stone-Cold Metallic: Sienna Miller in Matthew Williamson

I can never get enough of Sienna Miller. But Sienna in Matthew Williamson? She always seems to define the clothing. In retrospect, she always left a deep impression with me whenever she donned Mr. Williamson's unique designs. Okay. Back on topic. Loved her in this metallic mini in a stone-green wash with her Camilla Skovgaard booties she's been seen stomping around town in (during the day)! Leave it to Ms. Miller to never stick to one color palette. This is what I love about her taste! She's fearless in mixing in the brown belt while wearing black booties. And pairs her green dress with her red Prada Saffiano & Tessuto tote (most people don't dare to step anywhere near the X-mas color duo in fear of looking like the Grinch). Only Sienna... bow down.
Tidbit: Don't be afraid of color contradictions. When done right, brown and black accessories mixed into an outfit actually will give your look an extra kick! Red and green, when in the right material and shade pairing can actually give you an adventurous look -- when done right of course!
The Modern LBD: Nicky Hilton in Alice+Olivia Cut-Out Dress

At least one Hilton has her head screwed on straight and realized she's too old to play in Malibu Barbie's house anymore. Nicky owns this tasteful look in a little black dress. The Alice+Olivia number fits her like a glove, with subtle shoulder pads to help elongate the look. Nicky adds a modern twist to the look with her fabulous Brian Atwood Lola Suede Leather Pumps. Those shoes are magical! Where can I get me some of those? Oh and throw in her Hermés Collier de Chien Cuff in with my shoe crave fix too please...

Resident bad gal of the Hills, K.Cav always represents the epitome of Hollywood's modern day girl. She dresses up her laid-back-Cali look for a night out on the town with a pair of Christian Louboutins and Alice+Olivia leather shorts. I love the effortless feel of her ensemble, but due to the cut of the top, I would prefer to swap the shorts for liquid leggings.
Tidbit: When wearing a loose top, depending on the cut, do not pair it with a pair of micro-minis. Doing so would only shorten your height and make you look stumpy. To elongate your look: if your top is loose, your bottom must be tight and vice versa!
