Though the world has a new future Queen to look to for fashion fantasies, it’s hard to forget Princess Diana’s emblematic style. Her gowns continue to fetch high prices at auction, and now five of them will be on public display at Kensington Palace. Beginning March 26th, the palace will host a handful of the late royal’s most memorable fashion moments—from a fuchsia silk dress by Catherine Walker to a black shift designed by Gianni Versace. Also included in the line-up is a controversial strapless black taffeta gown by Emanuel that received criticism in the 80′s for its dark color and revealing neckline. How times have changed, as Duchess Kate wore something quite similar to a military ball over the weekend—garnering rave reviews for her bold, uncharacteristically sexy choice (courtesy of Alexander McQueen). The exhibit will be creatively titled, ‘Diana,’ and it’s part of a celebration for Kensington Palace’s $19 million renovation, just the start of a giant year for the royal family. 2012 will also mark Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee and the London Olympics, of which Duchess Kate is an ambassador, so there’s much more regal fashion to come!

Bottega Veneta may not rank highly in the minds of animal lovers, seeing that their spring 2012 collection alone featured glazed crocodile, grommet-covered ostrich, and lizard skin accessories. But their standing with tree-huggers just went up. The luxury brand’s Milan headquarters was recently awarded a “Carbon Neutral 2010” certification. It’s apparently just the beginning for Bottega though. The brand is planning to reduce greenhouse gas emissions during their fashion week and sales campaigns—times of the year when pollution spikes, according to the brand. No surprise, considering the amount of power, energy, and air travel that goes into producing a single show. Luckily they’re already moving in the right direction by using carbon credits to offset additional impact. Bottega isn’t the first luxury label to go green, though. Stand-out predecessors include Stella McCartney and Vivienne Westwood who takes part in the International Trade Centre’s ethical fashion program. Maria Cornejo‘s also on board—she used fabric made of recycled cassette tapes in her pre-fall collection. All in all, this is certainly a spring trend that we can get behind.

2012 is looking to be a good year for Gisele Bundchen: Her “dream mansion” in Los Angeles is nearly complete, her husband has secured the New England Patriots a place in the NFL playoffs, and now she’s nabbed not one, but three major spring campaigns. In addition to starring in ads for both Versace and Givenchy, the Brazilian bombshell’s turn for Salvatore Ferragamo’s spring ’12 collection just leaked. It’s another beachside shot, although this one trades Givenchy’s all-black ensemble and goth surfboard for a tropical-print silk dress and a palm tree. Meanwhile, Bundchen’s Givenchy colleague Mariacarla Boscono, who posed in the spring ’12 ads with Chris Moore and Simone Nobili, is another multi-campaign threat; her latest is a solo series for Yves Saint Laurent. For these photos, shot by David Sims (a break from Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, who had shot YSL for nine seasons straight), the Italian model is working ultra-arched eyebrows and a haircut that we can only describe as a high-fashion version of the Lisbeth Salander. Diane Kendal and Guido Palau get credit for the makeup and hair, respectively, but it seems that Dragon Tattoo mania has swept even the fashion houses. If both Bundchen and Boscono are busy next season, may we suggest Rooney Mara?
Amber.Stardoll- Since the day they became best friends at the Teen Vogue-office, Whitney Port's and Lauren Conrad's careers have developed side by side. Today both girls have left the reality show-life behind them. With their own brands, Lauren and Whitney now have their sights on being successful behind the cameras as designers. The dynamic between the two has changed too, a couple of years ago Lauren was the one who got the most attention but now Whitney has taken her spot in the limelight. While Lauren's style hasn't changed that much since The Hills, we've seen Whitney become a real fashionista. Question is, who's style do you like the most? Lauren's or Whitney's?

Back in October, Mette.Stardoll and I asked our Royalty members to enter a special competition: to give me a photo makeover! We were thrilled by the number of responses - it was overwhelming and took us forever to go through all the entries.
After a lot of searching and reviewing (with help from all our Stardoll collegues) we finally narrowed it down to the twelve chosen winners. Read the rest of this post to see who won!

- We're so excited that Britney Spears is now engaged! Her long time boyfriend, Jason Trawick, popped the question last Thursday in Las Vegas! So what does the ring look like? Instead of a ridiculously huge ring (ahem, Kim Kardashian) Jason went for quality over quantity. It's a 3 carat diamond set in platinum with diamonds all around the band. Sounds gorgeous! And it should, because it cost $90,000!
We're really happy for BritBrit, she deserves the best and seems like Jason is not only smart but has Brit's best interest in mind. She needs that! Congrats again to Britney and Jason! (usmagazine)
