No matter what, both Sarah Jessica Parker and Mary-Kate Olsen always set the fashion world abuzz with their outfit choices, and never seem to apologize for their mis-steps. Case in point? The latest get-ups that the two were photographed wearing.

At the oh-so-huge Sex and the City premiere on Monday, Ms. Carrie Bradshaw took the floral trend to new heights (literally) by arriving in an all green ensemble, complete with floral bouquet stemming from her chapeau.

And on the other side of the pond, the Olsen twin was spotted in what looks like a green suede jacket with fur trim, suede moccasins and a chinchilla fur bag that she could easily fit into – in the dead of Spring no less.

Who do you think committed the bigger fashion crime?

I’ve been looking for a comfy and pretty, floor-grazing maxi dress to sport around this summer. Ideally, it would be something I could easily throw on in the AM with some flip flops, jet off to brunch and shopping with the girls and then toss on a pair of cute wedges to transform it to a relaxed evening look.

target_070508.jpgWe’ve been talking a lot about Target’s collaboration with famous designers like Proenza Schouler, Temperley and Gryson, but in most recent news, the mass retailer announced that it will be teaming with high-end department store, Barney’s New York, to sell its latest collection by featured designer, Rogan Gregory.

As strange as this sounds, this means that Rogan’s Target collection, with prices ranging from $15-$45 will be sold at Barney’s, next to Rogan’s regular RTW collection with prices at nearly ten times the Target line.

In the 48 hours that he is in town, the legendary designer is scheduled to stop by the new Armani flagship store under construction on 5th Avenue, to take a peek at a Saks store window unveiling and to accept an award from the Couture Council.

Just when we thought she had fallen off the fashion radar, styling it up big time for the opening of her new flick, Iron Man, Gwyneth Paltrow has never looked more glamorous. This A-list actress has been laying low over the past couple of years, being more mum than movie star, but in recent days, its clear that this once “it” girl has still got it in her.

I stumbled upon this image of the Rakku Shoe Wheel while blog-surfing today and was just mesmerized by it. Most women struggle to find ample storage space for all of their shoes. Stacked in the original boxes, strewn about on the floor, precariously hanging from one of those over-the-door shoe racks, there hasn’t really been a great way to keep things organized and easily accessible.

eugenia_280408.jpgHaving a cool hat to polish off a look is key to celeb style. Actually, perhaps it’s a combination of fashion and function (ie, paparazzi shielding) that make them so popular in Hollywood. In any case, every girl should have a couple of cute hats on deck to help counteract bad hair days and to accent her wardrobe.

Eugenia Kim, hat designer extraordinaire, has been a celeb favorite for some time now. The likes of Cameron Diaz, Nicole Richie and Sienna Miller have all been photographed rockin’ her majorly chic and unique chapeaus and hair accessories.
