Diane Kruger's Shocking Red Carpet Dress

comments
DianeKrugerback.jpgFirst Rachel McAdams wears a Pucci dress that dips awfully low in front, now Diane Kruger wears one of the most daring red carpet dresses StyleBakery has ever seen. It's Versace Atelier and we happen to think Diane is very brave to wear it. What's the saying...'If you've got it..." 

What do you think, is this chic or just shocking?

An In Depth Look At Michelle Obama's Style

comments
MichelleObamasolid.jpgMichelleObamasolid2.jpg
It's likely that Michelle Obama's most heavily scrutinized fashion choice will come today, as she stands next to Barack Obama as he takes the Oath of Office. The world will be watching, not just here in America, but around the world. And based on her previous styles, we're guessing Michelle won't be looking to blend in.


Throughout her husband's historic campaign, Michelle has been a fan of bold solids. She wears bright colors very well and for Michelle, the simpler the design, the better. We think she'll stick with what she loves and wear a solid color coat in a bright hue by Maria Pinto.

Don't forget though, that Michelle loves shopping on a budget. Here she is (from left to right), in H&M, J.Crew and White House Black Market. We think Michelle will keep wearing low-cost outfits throughout her time as First Lady, but probably not at the inauguration. Of course, we're sure she's got a very expensive gown lined up for the balls...so how great would it be to wear a Banana Republic or J.Crew coat?


Of course we are hoping for a fashion repeat of what she wore the last night of the Democratic National Convention. Michelle looked confident, classy and extremely fashionable wearing Thakoon. It was updated First Lady chic and we also love that she wore flats. Unfortunately, it is so cold in Washington, D.C., all we will probably see of Michelle's ensemble will be her coat and boots...check back tomorrow for a report on what Michelle wore.

Red Carpet: Sophia Bush At The Art of Elysium Gala

comments
ArtofElysum.jpgThere's no better way to say it than this. Kirstin Dunst (in Valentino), Sophia Bush (in Monique Lhuillier) and Amy Smart wowed at The Art of Elysium Heaven Gala. The Art of Elysium is a non-profit foundation that helps famous stars donate their time to children battling serious medical conditions by spending time with them through activities like acting workshops.

Doesn't Sophia look unbelievably regal?

Can You ID Alicia Silverstone's Vegan Footwear?

comments
AliciaSilverstoneshoe.jpg







Alicia Silverstone is known for her activism. She's vegan and an animal-lover. So we always pay close attention to the shoes she wears to red carpet events.

Stella McCartney shoes are marked "suitable for vegetarians" on the bottom and have been made out of raffia in the past and Natalie Portman has a vegan shoe line of her own...

These shoes appear to be maybe satin wrapped? What do you think? Who makes them? And are they chic or trying too hard?

DoGoodies: Joy Gryson Auction

comments

When we saw Joy Gryson at the CFDA awards, we wrote about her electric blue Beca bag because Gryson is not known for evening bags and definitely doesn't sell any bag in that vibrant shade of blue.

Turns out, it's actually eelskin and it's part of a silent auction going on right now. The benefits will go to Family Focus Adoption Service (Joy was adopted and her mom co-founded the organization.) For more information and how to bid, go to style.com.



Do Goodies: Celebrate Earth Day With Lipstick

comments


Cargo has released a line of environmentally-friendly lipsticks, just in time for Earth Day. Many of the line's lipstick shades are celebrity-designed by the likes of Kim Raver, Sarah Chalke, Angie Harmon, Evangeline Lily, Maria Menounos, Mariska Hargitay, Denise Richards and Lindsay Lohan.

So how exactly is it eco-friendly? Well, the lipstick itself is made entirely from corn and the box it's packaged in is made of flower paper, which contains actual flower seeds. So if you wet the box and plant it....flowers will grow! And to top it all off, $2 from every purchase will benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Cargo PlantLove lipsticks, $20 at sephora.com.


Happy Earth Day!
