A truly fun take on animal print, Madewell’s Zebra Love pullover is becoming a celeb must-have item. The oversized camel-colored crewneck long sleeve sweater features two zebras on the front and has already been spotted on Nikki Reed as well as Charlize Theron. Nikki arrived at LAX back in February in the cotton pullover accented by gray pants, a maroon bag and knee-high black boots. Charlize just wore the sweater while carrying her son Jackson around Los Angeles earlier this week. She wrapped up her look with a pair of Current/Elliott’s The Multi Zip Stiletto pants and Joie printed loafers.

We love the surprisingly versatile printed piece and its $80 asking price.

Glitz and glamour certainly prevailed at the Oscars last night. Neutrals ruled the red carpet with pops of color coming mainly in shades of red and pink. Embellishments and ruffles were once again popular and stars sparkled in a variety of statement jewelry. Here’s an overview of some of the night’s fashions.



Anne Hathaway accepted her Oscar in this pale pink Prada column gown. Tiffany & Co. jewelry wrapped up the look. It wasn’t surprising that Jennifer Lawrence selected a Christian Dior Couture creation for the big event since she’s the face of the fashion house’s latest campaign. She accessorized with Chopard jewels, a Roger Vivier clutch and Brian Atwood shoes. Jessica Chastain shined in a custom Armani Privé embellished gown. Harry Winston gems and Christian Louboutin heels finished off her look.



Amy Adams impressed on the red carpet in a dramatic Oscar de la Renta gown. Moa jewelry polished off her captivating look. Charlize Theron opted for a structured Christian Dior Couture white gown featuring an embroidered peplum. Harry Winston jewels and Roger Vivier footwear completed the look. Elie Saab was behind Sandra Bullock’s embellished Spring 2013 Couture black gown. Harry Winston gems and a Swarovski clutch served as accessories.



Amanda Seyfried’s custom Alexander McQueen embroidered lilac halter gown included a keyhole detail. Her jewelry was by Lorraine Schwartz, while Roger Vivier was behind her sandals. Jennifer Garner was hard to miss on the red carpet thanks to her purple custom Gucci ruffled gown. She rounded out the look with a Roger Vivier clutch and Neil Lane jewels. Louis Vuitton’s blue strapless gown with black trim was Reese Witherspoon’s pick for the awards. Christian Louboutin Very Prive pumps capped off the look.

We love Amy Adams’ Oscar de la Renta, Jennifer Garner’s gorgeous Gucci and Jessica Chastain’s dynamic Armani Privé. Which star was your favorite?

We’ve been enjoying all the theatrical trailers for the new movie Snow White and the Huntsman for its beautiful and mystical costuming, and the red carpet looks the stars chose for the movie’s premiere were just as beautiful. Charlize Theron, in Dior Haute Couture, Kristen Stewart, in Marchesa, and model Lily Cole looked fabulous as dark beauties in raven hued fashion-forward looks.

Some of  the most stylish stars attended the White House Correspondent’s Association Dinner in Washington D.C. on Saturday.  Elizabeth Banks, Charlize Theron, in Emilio Pucci, Kate Hudson, in Jenny Packham and Reese Witherspoon all looked lovely in beautiful understated gowns.We love all the form fitting silhouettes with intricate detailing (checkout the beading on Charlize’s gown), and the simple makeup and accessories. 

If anyone can pull off a simple headband and make it look absolutely stunning, it’s Charlize Theron. And at the 21st Gotham Independent Film Awards this week, she did just that. While accepting a special tribute award honoring her career, Charlize teamed her plunging Gucci dress and gold lariat with a fluffy pompadour and the Jennifer Behr Thin Leather Headwrap. We love her glossy bright pink lip, too!

And here’s the good news: this headwrap is only $65! Snag your own in either black or cognac at jenniferbehr.com.

Let’s face it—Charlize Theron always looks stunning. But we’re totally in love with her look at the HTC product launch event in New York recently. She teamed a bright green Chloe dress with intricate gladiator sandals by Christian Louboutin. The final look is pretty, it’s casual and it’s perfect for a first date!

We’ve been all over the red carpets this year and really enjoying the fashions, but there is one show we were waiting for : The Oscars. Last night’s 82nd annual Academy Awards did not disappoint, bringing many gorgeous looks. Here are our favorites of the night:

Ruffled and Tiered Dresses

Demi Moore in Atelier Versace, Diane Kruger in Chanel, and Elizabeth Banks in Versace all worked the ruffled dress trend. Given the possibility of overdoing ruffles we think the ladies all did a great job of choosing dresses that didn’t overpower them.

One-Shoulder Dresses

Queen Latifah in Badgley Mischka Couture, Tina Fey in Michael Kors, and Sigourney Weaver in Lanvin all looked radiant in one-shoulder dresses. All the dresses were very sleek and visually interesting.

Strapless Gowns

Kristen Stewart in Monique Lhuillier, Miley Cyrus in Jenny Packham (above top photos),Mariska Hartigay in Vera Wang, and Charlize Theron in Christian Dior (above bottom photos) all went for traditional strapless gowns. We love the sweetheart necklines and fit of Kristen and Miley’s dresses, and the volume and flair of Mariska and Charlize’s dresses.

 

Voluminous Dresses

Jennifer Lopez in Armani Prive, Penelope Cruz in Donna Karan (above top photos), Amanda Seyfried in Giorgio Armani Prive, and Cameron Diaz in Oscar de la Renta (above bottom photos), all graced the red carpet in rich full gowns. While Jennifer, Amanda, and Cameron chose ethereal white gowns with texture and beading detail,  Penelope chose a rich wine color with a pretty sheen.

While we’d love to tell you our best dressed, we must admit we are deadlocked between Cameron Diaz, who stunned us with her glamour, and Penelope Cruz, who wowed us in her elegant Donna Karan gown. Who do you think was best dressed?

We first noticed the cropped jacket in late summer when Charlize Theron, left, wore it to a a Pasadena soccer match benefiting the Africa Outreach Project. Suddenly her simple jersey dress had flair, style, and layers to make it interesting.

Kristen Bell, center, followed in the fall with her SMYTHE cropped jacket layered over a flirty purple blouse with skinny jeans. Most recently we saw Kate Walsh in a cropped jacket by Stella McCartney paired with a printed blouse and skinny jeans.

Given that we’re already a huge fan of chic layering we totally love this look. Worn as Charlize does over a dress, or as an structured piece over a ruffled or printed blouse with skinny jeans as Kristen and Kate wore it, the cropped jacket is a great transition piece from winter to spring.

Although leather doesn’t usually conjure up images of elegance, the two shots of Charlize Theron and Angelina Jolie above are just that: elegant.

Charlize and Angelina prove that leather doesn’t always have to be tough. Their looks show,  that if done right, leather can be feminine and sleek. We love the way Charlize vamped up her sweetheart top with a leather skirt, giving the otherwise romantic look a little edge. Angelina on the other hand went all out sexy in a skintight leather dress. We love that she kept her look from being too over the top by choosing a pair of strappy sandals over clunky accessories.

Matte Lips - Glossy lips took a backseat to matte lips this year. Stars like Charlize Theron tried on this subtle hue for the red carpet.

Novelty Nails - Nail polish color got a kick this year with hues like jade and gray. Stars like Drew Barrymore and Rachel Bilson were among some of the stars who loved this look. We especially love Chanel’s Le Vernis Nail Color in Jade, which helped launch the trend.

Hair Transformations -

One beauty trend we never tire of is seeing stars play with their hair’s cut and color. Above are some of our favorite hair transformations of 2009.

There were many trends we saw this year, but these are the trends that were fresh and have staying power.

1. The Boyfriend Blazer - Seen on and off the red carpet, the boyfriend blazer was a Hollywood staple this year. Adding a casual touch to cocktail dresses, and a sophistication to t-shirts and jeans, this is a must-have piece for most starlets.

2. Color - Stars were no shrinking violets this year as we saw a range of candy colored hues on the red carpet.Cobalt, as seen here on Charlize Theron, was especially popular and is one color that never goes out of style.

3. Over -the-Knee Boots - We’ve seen the knee high boot, and we’ve seen the bootie, but not since the sixties has there been such an interest in over-the-knee boots. Worn with short dresses as well over skinny jeans, these boots got some serious mileage from today’s hottest celebs.

4. Formal Shorts - We love a great dress on the red carpet, but we found it refreshing to see a spin on red carpet dressing with stars wearing the formal short. The shorts, usually made out of silk or satin, have a nice sheen and made the gams on the ladies who wore them look a mile long.

Gone are the days of glossy lips. From New York Fashion Week to the red carpet, we’ve seen the emergence of the matte lip. Although the trend has been done in both nudes and browns, we love the peach and pink colors seen on Kristen Bell and Charlize Theron.

Okay, please don’t take this the wrong way, but, unless Charlize Theron herself is reading this blog, you cannot pull off this look. And you really, really cannot pull off those shoes.

Luckly, we have found totally wearable versions of Charlize’s beautiful cobalt draped dress and cream-colored heels.  This banana republic dress has the exact same feel and look to the one-shouldered dress Charlize was wearing.

We noticed Gisele Bundchen’s airport style last month on stylebakeryteen.com and now Charlize Theron has caught our eye….and her ensemble is similar to Gisele’s. So here are our conclusions for looking good when you take to the skies.

1. Wear a scarf.
2. Dark denim and flats can be casual and chic.
3. Black is your friend.
4. Keep your baggage simple and practical.

The 2009 Christian Dior Cruise Collection preview was the hot place to be in New York City last week. Many fashion heavy hitters showed up including Jennifer Lopez, Charlize Theron, Christina Aguilera and Anna Wintour and Rachel Zoe (reportedly feuding).

J. Lo looked positively regal.
