Amber.Stardoll- 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!

Bathrobes are turning out to be a sleeper hit for spring. Lines as diverse as Suno and Costello Tagliapietra have sent them down the runway without any bells and/or whistles and yet they look perfectly primed for a night out. The Row had the honor of being first. The Olsens offered a luxurious take on their short-lived college style, when they were often spotted in the post-shower staple. Theirs is the most pajama-like of all three thanks to a legitimate pair of PJ’s in the same patterned silk underneath. Mary-Kate may be the only person who could pull off this look, but over jeans, the robe could work on a non-Olsen. Max Osterweis and Erin Beatty of Suno sent out a Chinoiserie robe with a simple sash belt and heels—like a relaxed wrap dress like Costello Tagliapietra’s. Although fashioned of a dressed-up silk jersey the dress still screams robe. Is this a trend you’ll try?

Almost exactly one year ago, Jessica Szohr and Leigh Lezark sat side-by-side at the Herve Leger by Max Azria spring ’11 show. With their face-framing raven hair, they almost looked like twins. At today’s spring ’12 show they weren’t neighbors, but both showed up rocking bangs. Lezark’s fringe, which she debuted this summer, takes the edge off of her normally severe look. Szohr, meanwhile, looked nearly unrecognizable with her new bob (if it weren’t for her electric blue bandage dress, she might have slipped under the radar). You could call the look, with its sweeping, jagged bangs, a break-up cut; after all, it was only recently confirmed that she and Gossip Girl had split. Her front row neighbor, Ashlee Simpson, could commiserate: She’s been rocking an Edie Sedgwick-style white-blonde pixie ‘do for about as long as she’s been separated from Pete Wentz. And what better way to get over a break-up than daydreaming about all the fun you’d have in a really sexy Herve Leger dress. “I loved the beading,” said Simpson of the macramé and woven second-skin ensembles shown on the runway, adding, “I thought it was beautiful.” But would the shoes, which wrapped up the knee, like a gladiator sandal, be comfortable enough to wear out? According to Simpson, “they actually did!”

- We were shocked when we heard that Jennifer Lopez went on a date with Bradley Cooper, they just seem so mismatched! But apparently it was all a set up by J.Lo herself! When Jen called Bradley and asked him to dinner, he thought it was just going to a low-key business dinner but somehow it was leaked to the paps as a romantic date! And fingers point towards J.Lo as the snitch! We think J.Lo pulled this stunt to keep her name in the press and to make her ex, Marc Anthony, jealous! All we can say is "lame!" (thesuperficial)

- We all know that Madonna is a total diva, a status that she pretty much deserves, but sometimes even a diva can take things too far. Rumor has that Madonna forced volunteers at the TIFF Festival in Toronto to turn away from her and FACE THE WALL while she made her entrance backstage.
What the....?! Apparently Madonna thinks her presence is too sacred for measly volunteers. The eight volunteers were working backstage at the festival and when Madonna was making her way to a press conference they all had to turn to the wall so they couldn't catch a glimpse of the pop icon! We really want this to just be rumor but with Madonna's latest spoiled attitude, who knows? (perezhilton)

- Even the most seasoned celebs sometimes trip and fall. Our fave fashionistas often wear high heels, so you'd think they'd have a lot of practice but we've seen Kim Kardashian and Amanda Seyfried trip, stumble, and fall. Click on the pics and check out these high heeled faux pas!

At yesterday’s Rodarte show Kate and Laura Mulleavy revealed their Van Gogh-inspired spring collection. The inspiration was so obvious, and at times so literal, that it prompted one critic to worry about copyright issues. Suzy Menkes wasn’t a fan. She wrote, “Where did the Mulleavy sisters lose their touch at Rodarte? There were other outfits in vivid mixes of blue and green that had an allure — although not the dark undertone usually associated with the design duo, who said they were obsessed with the saturated, filmic colors of Disney’s 1959 Sleeping Beauty…but [they] did not push their concept forward enough to make it seem like more than just another floral frock,” but WWD loved it, “This collection bore evidence of a desire to be more commercial while protecting the artistry at the core of their work. If the designers felt the strain of compromise, it resulted in a beautiful thing.” The one thing no one’s debating? That Rodarte attracted the most star studded front row this week. Beyoncé (with Solange), Taylor Swift, Rooney Mara, Miranda July, and both Fannings brought A-list start power to the afternoon show. Elle and Dakota chose pretty different looks, so which one’s your favorite?
