Who: Maria Sharapova
What: Jewel-adorned Alexander McQueen dress and heels, Hellmuth earrings
Wear: The 2011 ESPYS presented by ESPN at the Nokia theatre in L.A. last night
Tennis-playing phenom Maria Sharapova wore Alexander McQueen from head to dazzling toe at last night’s 2011 ESPY (Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly) Awards. The black minidress from McQueen’s pre-fall 2011 collection looked just as show-stopping on the red carpet as it did on stage, where she presented the award for Best Upset alongside NBA player Amar’e Stoudemire to Virginia Commonwealth University basketball coach Shaka Smart. The ultra-low back, sexy slit, and short skirt amped up Sharapova’s seductive appeal, and we love how the tennis great pulled off the luxe jewel-encrusted look with the same laid-back confidence she showcases every season on the court. As a final touch to her otherwise all-Alexander-McQueen look, the stunning athlete chose perfectly matching black-and-gold Hellmuth earrings. Maria Sharapova is currently the fifth ranked player by the Women’s Tennis Association and was seeded fifth at this year’s Wimbledon tournament.

Chanel Fall 2011 Haute Couture, IMAXTREE
The couture shows in Paris came to an end last week, but there’s a trend that we just can’t shake off. Make that two trends: fingerless gloves and finger half-gloves. Chanel kept to its signature look this season with tweed skirt and cropped jacket suits but added a surprisingly chic pair of fingerless gloves to almost every look. Leather, lace, mesh, and even feathers were used to make these palm warmers. Often associated with punk kids and goth rockers, these fingerless gloves added a sweet and unexpected touch of class to Chanel’s runway looks. The best part? You get to use your iPod without having to remove your gloves! Here’s how to get the look:

Is that you, Neville Longbottom? Believe it or not, the awkward bumbling Neville you used to know has matured into the handsome hunk of a man pictured above. Ten points to Gryffindor—for looking so darn good. It’s about time we paid some attention to Matthew Lewis, the actor who plays Neville in the 8 Harry Potter films, set to conclude with the premiere of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 at midnight tonight. The question was always: Who do you prefer: Harry or Ron? But now, if you asked us, we’d say yeah, those two are alright, but we’ve got our eye on little ol’ Neville Longbottom. Or should we say, the crush-worthy guy behind the character, none other than Mr. Matthew Lewis. Matt was born and raised in Yorkshire, England (so he’s got an oh-so-charming British accent), and began acting when he was six-years-old. After his Harry Potter days are over, he’s set to star in The Sweet Shop coming out in 2013. Hopefully, we’ll be seeing more and more of this actor. For now, check out the fine fella in the newest HP movie. And try to pay attention to the actual plot of the film, we know it’ll be tough with this guy on-screen.

- Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, James Dean. These are people who often show up on our shirts—their mugs do anyway. And we love it! They were accomplished stars who had large followings and still do to this day. Need we remind you of Andy Warhol’s famous Marilyn pop art? Didn’t think so. Now it doesn’t take as much to get your face plastered all over clothing. Tween stars are featured on clothing line after clothing line. That’s all fine and dandy to us—little boys and girls love it! But we found a dress that we’re not so sure about…

Every month, we check our mailboxes impatiently for several items: ELLE (duh) and the Free People catalog, among other things. In each edition, the boho brand manages to hit upon a look that is totally right-now yet also completely unique. For July, the stylists went down-home, grundgy western, traveling to Austin, Texas to shoot the models in an edgy country style.

- Last week, Wilmer Valderamma revealed that he and his former co-stars have “talked about” a That 70s Show reunion. “Let’s start the buzz,” he said. Well, we’re certainly buzzing: it would be a blast to see Topher Grace, Ashton Kutcher, and Mila Kunis, who have all shot to mega-stardom since their sitcom days, re-don their ’70s style gear and head to the basement again like they did in the show. His words got us thinking, though, about what other casts we’d love to see reunite. We picked out seven now-canceled TV shows that are totally reunion-worthy. Let us know what we missed!

- A pixie haircut is a pleasant idea, especially during summer, but it’s a bold decision to make that requires commitment (at least a couple years until your hair to grow back). Stylish celebs like Halle Berry, Victoria Beckham, Natalie Portman, Hilary Swank, Ginnifer Goodwin, and recently Kate Winslet have all rocked the look. But we prefer garnering inspiration from the girls next door of Hollywood—Emma Watson, Evan Rachel Wood, Michelle Williams, and Ashlee Simpson—for that extra encouragement to try out the daring do. Emma wowed the crowd at the NYC premiere of the final Harry Potter film with her slicked-back pixie style. We’ll show you this look, plus other great ways to style your own pixie cut if you decide to make the move. Lucky for you, styling a pixie takes hardly any time at all! (And if you’re not quite daring enough to take the plunge and chop off your hair, take a look at these other celeb-inspired summer haircuts and styles)

- The more the merrier, right? That’s what we think when it comes to not one, but two talented teams joining forces to give us the best of both their worlds in limited capsule collections. From Kate Spade to Jeremy Scott, we take a look at some recent (and highly anticipated) collabs that have us lusting for more. Kate Spade + Current/Elliot- These two big-named designers have joined forces to come up with a new handbag collection, called “The Westward by Emily and Meritt for Kate Spade New York Collection.” The long-titled capsule collection will debut in stores in August, and the six-piece line will have gorgeous handbags priced from $245-$1,295.

Jeremy Scott + Adidas- The quirky designer is teaming up with the sports label to create a fun and youthful take on “athletic” wear for the fall 2011 collection. The eccentric collection will include a tiger striped hoodie, a panda T-shirt, a sequined camouflage mini-dress, and so much more. If this qualifies as buying “workout” gear–we think we’ve found our calling.

- It’s no secret that Emma Watson is the world’s most sought-after nerd. After her portrayal as Harry Potter‘s Hermione Granger, the bushy-headed, bright-eyed book worm, Watson was launched into a life of fame. And while HP was her baseboard for a fabulous career, she’s made a name for herself outside the series. Slinking away from the geeky girl she played onscreen, Watson slowly began to explore the magical world of fashion. Audiences found themselves anticipating Potter premieres solely to examine her newest sartorial ventures. When she announced her plans to be the face of Burberry in 2009, we were none too surprised. So now we pay homage to beautifully blossomed starlet with the first-rate ensembles she’s so elegantly worn over the years.

Who: Blake Lively
What: BAFTA Brits To Watch event held at Belasco Theatre in L.A. on July 9
Wear: Marchesa dress, Lorraine Shwartz jewels, and Christian Louboutin heels
Blake Lively joined the Duke and Duchess at the BAFTA Brits to Watch charity event in LA this weekend wearing this one-shouldered Marchesa gown from the spring 2011 collection. The muted grey color did wonders for her bronzed glow, which—when taken together with the dress’ delicate embroidery and subtly sheer chiffon fabric—made it a radiant look on the elegant red carpet. Lively, who typically opts for more form-fitting looks (and has every reason to flaunt her fab figure), covered up for a change and completed her look with Lorraine Shwartz jewels and Christian Louboutin heels. Her loose wind-swept up do added to the easy elegance of the whole package.
