    This cutie keeps chic and cool at last weekend’s Coachella festival in a high-waisted mustard skirt and lace top. She manages to keep her look practical with a cross body bag and flat lace up shoes while still staying trendy in a lace crop top and full skirt. Plus we love that sweet and sassy pixie cut! Peep our picks to get the look:

    Jessica Simpson & Nick Lachey on their wedding day in 2002.

    Jessica Simpson‘s getting hitched again and his time around she’s older, wiser and apparently, ready to take on extra wedding responsibilities—like designing her own wedding dress. In 2002, when she married Nick Lachey, Simpson wore a classic white Vera Wang gown with embroidered floral lace on the strapless bodice and a wide princess-like skirt.  Since then, Simpson’s built one of the biggest celebrity fashion empires.  She sells shoes, bags, jeans—almost anything you can think of—and though she’s not actually adding bridal to her resume, she is tackling one look. “I think every bride wants to design her own dress or at least have a part in it. It won’t be like a Jessica Simpson Collection dress,” she told Extra. The wedding itself will happen before the end of the year.  She doesn’t drop any hints as to what the dress will look like; we would have pegged her for pale pink, but now that that’s been done what do you think her personalized gown will look like?

    This weekend’s Coachella marks the start of the sunnies-and-Wellies-wearing music festival season.  Whether you’re gearing up for Bonnaroo or Lollapalooza, you’ll be in need of an outfit that is both outdoors-friendly and blends in with the likes of Kanye West, Robyn, The Kills, and Mumford & Sons.  Must-haves include spring’s maxidress, printed shorts, basic rocker T-shirt, and utilitarian jacket.  Pair any of these with the requisite wide-brim boho hat, huge shades, carry-all tote, flat sandals and chunky bangles, and you’ll be ready to go from the mosh pit to the after party.

    Summer’s must-try hair style? Bohemian-inspired feather extensions, like Selena Gomez wore to Nickelodeon’s 24th Annual Kids’ Choice Awards earlier this month. They are real feathers that are attached at the base of a hair strand wherever you desire. You can wear these cool pieces on a single strand of hair or in clusters of four or five pieces. The extensions last for about six weeks and you can even curl them, flat-iron, or wash them. They range from $7-$45 depending on how many strands you want. To top it off the extensions come in a variety of colors from turquoise to earth tone neutrals, for people who love the bold vs. the subtle. So what do you think of this hair trend? Are you with it or totally not for it?

    In a season typically dominated by neutrals, designers added a punch of color with Crayola-colored pants. On the runway, separates came in every color of the rainbow, but street style-wise, red and pink seems to be the color of choice. Whatever color you pick, this is one trend you can wear now with a sheer tank and sandals and later with a sweater and heels. Here are our picks:

    Oscar de la Renta opened this morning’s bridal show with a bikini—like starting with the honeymoon and working backwards. Other than that, the show was a traditional presentation of what de la Renta does best. His showroom, on Seventh Avenue, was full of budding cherry blossoms and a classic waltz and he sent out a parade of dresses—down an aisle, naturally—covered in delicate floral embroidery and white lace. A bohemian looking silk organza caftan topped the bikini; after it came ruffled trains paired with bolero jackets, a knee-length strapless white dress with a rabbit fur skirt, and cotton-candy colored blue and pink organza pieces in both long and short.  Almost everything was topped off with veiled Patricia Underwood hats that’d work as well at a garden wedding or Ascot as they would on a bride. And though “classic” is the word best used to describe the collection as a whole, de la Renta included just enough non-traditional silhouettes to gain a more modern bride’s interest. Whether you’re looking for Witherspoon-pink or Middleton-tradition, de la Renta has you covered.

    Lindsey Thornburg‘s best known for her Navajo-like cloaks. They’re the only really stylish way to snuggle up in a blanket while walking around a city and look both fashionable and put together, but it’s no wonder it took her a little bit longer to develop her first spring collection. When she finally did—and it’s beautiful—Thornburg set out for Palm Springs with her “creative counterpart” Olivia Malone for two shoots: the lookbook, and a behind the scenes look a the look book. Luckily, the monsoon that hit their location (the heaviest in 21 years) worked in their favor. “Having to work with the elements and create a spring editorial in a downpour made for the most beautifully dark images,” said Thornburg.

    Carolina Herrera spring 2011, Imaxtree

    Wrapped-up or let down, curly ringlets or kinky crimped, natural or technicolor, spring presented a wide range of ‘dos for every type of hair and mood. One of the few constants it seems was the appearance of the clip (not the 80′s mega claw kind) that can be used to make your style elegant, playful, or just plain out of your face. Here are a few ways New York’s designers used the classic tool to inspire your own daily routine: Carolina Herrera adorned her geisha dolls with barrettes made out of hair, matching each model’s own color. Keeping the zen mood, the organic accessories were arranged in tight, abstract patterns on ponytails and buns.

    Louis Vuitton Spring 2011, Imaxtree

    For spring 2011, Marc Jacobs took the Louis Vuitton woman for a ride on the Orient Express.  His Asia, Deco, and orientally-inspired collection bordered on costume and camp, but ultimately showcased just how seamlessly so many decadent pieces can work together.  Golden metallics, dangling tassels, toggle ties, sheer floating fabrics, wide obi belts, lace-up sandals and lush colors all recalled the romantic Far East in art and film.  So much in-your-face glamor might seem intimidating, but with these pieces, you can channel the Louis Vuitton runway look:
