Wet hair has been an emerging beauty trend for spring ’12 (call it the Hurricane Irene effect), but that wasn’t the reason for Sky Ferreira’s damp tresses at the Alexander Wang after-party. “No Jello shots for me,” she said of the frat-themed fete. “But I did get water poured on my head by Tyler, the Creator. It burned a little bit, but it was fun.” The musician-slash-model has been busy—“right now I’m just working on my album,” Ferreira said from the front row at Jeremy Scott—but she’s found time to see the collections of her favorite designers. “I only go to shows that I’m a fan of, that I like the clothes,” she noted (among the ones that made the cut were Scott as well as Theyskens‘ Theory). On the other hand, British singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding—who was seated next to Ferreira—has been going to shows on the recommendation of her stylist. With appearances at Scott, Betsey Johnson, and Charlotte Ronson, Goulding admitted that she has been making a mental list of clothing she’d like to wear while performing. She added, however, that she’d ultimately love to be doing the designing herself: “I would definitely [start a label]. I see other people wearing stuff that helps them onstage, because it’s not easy to run around and sing and dance and still wear something really amazing. So, it’s finding that kind of outfit, really.” Ultimately, it wasn’t the established designers who wowed Goulding; the stand-out of her New York Fashion Week “was the ELLE [Fashion Next] show, because I saw some incredible stuff. I was just really inspired. Even though I’m a musician, it’s so good to see such amazing talent. Like, a dress made out of human hair? Amazing!”

Growing up, turtlenecks were a winter wardrobe affliction—a parental stipulation that was almost always uncomfortable and hot. So imagine our surprise when these pesky neck ringers started popping up on fall’s runways, sending a torturous off-season message: We’re Back. Cathy Horyn named the style one of this season’s five must-haves, and J.Crew’s littered their catalog with colorful versions. And now, based on the spring runways we’ve seen thus far, the turtleneck appears to be in it for the long haul. But the question is, will you still want to wear them when the sun comes back? A handful of New York’s darling’s included turtlenecks in their shows, some girly, some androgynous, and others meant for a sort of refined hipster. Alexander Wang’s interpretation was ultra-violet with Aztec detailing while Joseph Altuzarra’s chartreuse croptop looked destined for Lara Croft in Tomb Raver. Rachel Comey was beach-bound on an alternative vacation—her intarsia knit was paired with a bikini bottom and sand-friendly straw accessories. Jill Stuart’s was the most girly. Her rainbow color blocked option, peeping out from underneath a gold lurex jacket with hotpants , but with shorts that short it’s probably just best to conceal your neck. Maybe that’s what this trend is all about—an antidote to summer’s uncontrollable amount of nakedness? In that case, job well done.
Amber.Stardoll- We spotted celebrity model, Tyra Banks, in a very cute LBD! We especially liked the pop of orange on her sleeves and her bracelet! Orange is THE color of the season and if it's too much for you to wear an orange shirt, dress, or pants, stock up on fun orange accessories! A pair of hot heels, a bold ring, or a chunky bracelet!

After just two seasons, Giles Deacon is out at Ungaro. The industry breathed a sigh of relief when the beloved British designer took over after a tumultuous few seasons in which Ungaro hired Esteban Cortazar (who critics thought was doing a pretty good job) and then ousted him to bring on Lindsay Lohan and Estrella Archs. The latter duo was, to put it mildly, not so well received. It looked like the brand was beyond repair until they finally sat up and hired a real designer. But Giles’ first collection, for spring 2011, didn’t earn great reviews either. Critics accused him of trying too hard and losing sight of the balance between the storied French brand and his own, funkier aesthetic. Ungaro’s fall collection may have earned better reviews, but the critics still save their biggest compliments for Giles’ eponymous line. There is also, of course, the question of who’s buying the clothes—it’s not even spotted on the most adventurous street style stars. An official statement says Giles and the house “mutually decided” to end their relationship, and that the spring collection presented in Paris next month will be designed by the in house team. But it’ll need more than that to get back on track.

So Ashley Olsen wasn’t the most surprising celebrity at Oscar de la Renta‘s spring show—that honor would go to Justin Timberlake or Nicki Minaj, neither of whom we can imagine rocking one of Oscar’s embroidered lace ballgowns—but as far as lady starlets go, Olsen wasn’t the most expected. As the designer sent out one gorgeous, frothy creation after another—embroidered silk, beaded jackets, feathered columns—we tried to imagine the petite Olsen peeking out from any one of the looks, until the off-the-shoulder pink dress emerged. The only other time we’d seen those sleeves this decade (outside of period films) was when Olsen rocked the hard-to-wear look on the Met Ball’s red carpet in May. So now we know, Oscar gets his inspiration where every other woman does: from the Olsens.

- We just LOVED Betsey Johnson's spring 2012 collection at New York Fashion Week! Betsey is always creative and her collections always contain her signature style: punk-chic! We love it! On the front row of the fashion show we saw celebs like the beautiful actress, Malin Akerman, Fashion Director at Maire Claire, Nina Garcia, and the designer, Micheal Kors! Click on the pics to see all of the hot and fab pieces from the runway! We especially love all the colorful details!

- How do we get our eyes to really pop? Celebs always seem to have perfect and beautiful eyes... But trust us they are not born with that extra sparkle!
Think of it this way, for every type of outfit you have certain accessories that you wear (bag, shoes, etc) which enhances the beauty of that piece of clothing! Well, your face is similar! To enhance the beauty of your eyes you should choose an eyeshadow that complements them and brings out their lovely color!
Celebs like Hayden Panettiere or Scarlett Johansson have green eyes, so they choose shadows and eyeliners that go with or enhance the green in their eyes! Click on the pictures to get our tips on how to get your green eyes to shine!

“She just wants excitement,” was how designer Nanette Lepore described the woman she imagined wearing her spring collection. One look at the pieces she showed on the runway on Wednesday and it’s clear what she meant: This collection injected jolts of color—electric yellow, neon pink, DayGlo orange—into Lepore’s trademark feminine designs. Stripped and floral patterns were so color-saturated that she actually had to approach them differently. “This season with the prints, it was like they weren’t saturated enough,” Lepore said backstage before her show. She added, “So finally we did this painting technique, this pigment, so they get this deep, deep color.” But while there were plenty of Betty Draper-on-acid pieces on display (among them, a creamsicle hued nipped-waist jacket and a full-skirted tank dress in bright lemon), it wasn’t all frills; Lepore cited the Venice Biennale at the American Pavilion as inspiration, with its “Olympic athletes performing on these crazy sculptures—that was exciting.” The body-hugging uniforms worn there were echoed in Lepore’s scuba-style cropped tops and dresses, accented with white piping and graphic, circular zipper pull detailing that you’re more likely to see on the beach than on the streets of New York’s Upper East Side. Perhaps part of this shift away from the pleats and bows that so often occupy her collections (and to be clear, there were still plenty in this one) has to do with where she sees the label going: “We’ve had bags and shoes for about a year—I really want to see them explode—[and] swim is doing really, really well. And I want to move into menswear eventually.” It may seem like an odd fit, but Lepore is just trying to reconnect with her design roots; as she explained, “[Menswear] is something we started off doing years ago, so I would love to get back to that because it was really fun.”

- We spotted both Katie Holmes and Lucy Liu in this Azzedine Alaia dress and both ladies rocked it in a similar style. While we were underwhelmed by both choices, we still wonder: who wore it best?
Katie wore the dress with tan Proenza Schouler booties, messy curls, and a few black leather bracelets. We weren't huge fans of her booties and we think she made the dress look really budget...but that's just us!
Lucy was the first to wear the dress and she paired it was a red clutch, gold bracelet, and nude peep-toe heels. We like that she added the pop of red!
