Photo: Splash NewsSarah Hyland looked absolutely fab at the Golden Globes, wearing a floor length vintage Dolce & Gabbana gown with a surprising twist: a mermaid flare. Previously isolated to frilly over the top wedding gowns and bizarelly stiff pageant dresses, the mermaid flare cut has made a comeback on the red carpet during award season. The newly revamped mermaid flare had tempted stars with its form flattering appeal and eye-catching dramatic silhouette, making it perfect for prom night. You can rock this modern take on the mermaid flare by experimenting with flirty fabrics, bold textures (just say no to polyester!) and drawing attention to your curves with details at the waist. Check out out top picks for the perfect mermaid flare prom dress (and tips for how to rock them all)!

Avoid: giant bows, heavily encrusted heavy weight champion style belts.

Photo: Getty ImagesHome for the holidays, I woke up, beach-bound on the first day, and threw on white jeans and my new favorite shirt: a navy blue pajama top from J.Crew. It has white piping and looks like something men slept in before boxers replaced Brooks Brothers. “Is that…?” my mom asked. “She’s wearing pajamas, right?” my dad said to my sister. “We’re going to the beach,” I said. “And I wear this to work—all the time!” The pajama thing’s been big for over a year now. It was, at one point, shocking to see Julian Schnabel wearing robes on red carpets, but his wife’s hugely successful line of silk PJs and a slew of runway imitators (Rag & Bone, Giles, Richard Chai) have led to one cozy look after another. Plus, they’re just comfortable. Barneys’ Amanda Brooks wears her silk button downs with loose printed pants and Rachel Roy actually donned a matching look last summer. But sometimes fashion forgets that it lives in a bubble, and not everyone’s OK with wearing pajamas in public. One guy, a commissioner in Louisiana, is so concerned about people wearing pajamas in public that he’s actually advocating a ban. Michael Williams, said commissioner, defines pajamas as “a garment sold in the sleepwear section of department stores.” Half of my summer dresses come from the “sleepwear section” of Anthropologie—not to mention that J.Crew top. Of course, a law like that would never actually pass, but the fact that he’s trying? Well, aren’t there more important things to worry about?

From left to right, Bottega Veneta, Prada & Burberry. Photos: Getty ImagesConsider it common knowledge among the fashion community that when it comes to predicting trends in womenswear, the menswear collections in Milan and Paris can act as a sort of editor’s crystal ball. Designers model their men’s wares nearly nearly a full month before women’s ready-to-wear hits the New York runways in the second week of February. Of course, one can never predict with 100% certainty that a trend will transcend the genders, but, having just returned from a fast and furious Autumn Winter 2012 season in Milan—where we saw some very directional and very strong decisions by the most influential designers—I think we can make a decent case. There were reiterations of past season’s usual suspects: shearling, great leather, varsity jackets and cropped outerwear. The need for a sharp overcoat in a man’s wardrobe has never been so clear. Those on display in nearly every Italian-shown collection were rich in fabric, impeccably tailored and practically screaming, “It’s time to grow up.”As for what’s new, here’s what the boys were wearing that the girls might like too:Capes, cloaks and cape-like coats: As soon as Dolce & Gabbana’s runway show started, I thought to myself, “Let’s go to the opera! 200 years ago!” Yes, it was all 19th century romanticism for Stefano and Domenico, and included in their past-is-present collection were flowing hooded cloaks fitting for any Phantom. Alexander McQueen, Ermenegildo Zegna, and Calvin Klein all had their own variations (Mugler just showed them in Paris as well), many with that most necessary modern day update: sleeves.Brocade: Sometimes it wasn’t just a cape coat at Dolce—it was a brocade cape coat at Dolce. The materials were luxe and the gold, silver and jeweled ornamentation on the blazers, jackets, shoes, and, yes, even socks got fancy. McQueen and Bottega Veneta showed more accessible interpretation of this trend, simply running a raised embellishment along a blazer lapel or the edge of a sleeve. The quixotic effect, though, remains the same.Pony hair: To be more specific, burgundy pony hair. On a tunic at McQueen, an overcoat at Z Zegna, a blazer at Canali, and nearly all of the above—even a full suit— at Emporio Armani. It’s shimmery and totally glam—just in case that’s your thing. Velvet: At a re-see appointment one afternoon in Milan, a PR rep for the label had to get real: “Is everyone really doing velvet again? I feel like it’s my senior year of college again.” The answer—much to my colleague’s chagrin—is yes, yes we are. While velvet hasn’t entirely faded out in years past, it returned in full force for next fall. Trousers and blazers were the most common velvet garment, but where it seemed most fresh this season was in…Tailoring: For so many seasons it seemed like we couldn’t get away from the boxy cuts and then slowly but surely designers made their suits tighter and sleeker. Finally, this season it looks like suits are back to being superbly tailored, much the same way that womenswear is reverting to the lady-like silhouettes and cuts that define femininity. There was nary a baggy leg, drop crotch, or slouchy blazer in sight. Dolce, Bottega, and Ferragamo, who up until last season were still being generous in their cuts, brought everything closer to the body. No one was quite as tailored as Burberry Prorsum; it looks like it’d take a good greasing to slip into the brand’s collection.Prints: As far as prints go, Miuccia really demonstrated a keen eye for pattern in the micro-print fabrics of brown, burgundy, mustard and red of Prada’s collection. Her’s was among the strongest of the season—and not just because celebrities like Gary Oldman, Jamie Bell, Adrien Brody and William Dafoe walked in the show. Canali followed suit with a similar bent and a strong use of stripes. Even at Missoni—the pattern masters—size was dialed back for a less abrasive, but more intricate visual. Color: The palette of AW12, beyond a few popping collections from Versace and Roberto Cavalli, wasn’t quite vibrant. Grey continues to be the go-to color and deep emerald green was about as adventurous as things got. Together ,with the aforementioned burgundy, the two were seen in nearly every collection. Bottega had some impressive footwear, again proving Tomas Maier’s continued dedication to amping up the house’s shoe presence. But if anyone steered away from somber hues, it was for rich mustard, camel, or, winter white. And in some cases—Jil Sander, Costume Nationale—it was all about black on black.

Burberry Prorsum, Zac Posen, ImaxtreeFrom Burberry Prorsum to Zac Posen, 2012 pre-fall collections were packed with models sporting strong, full eyebrows. Using an eyebrow pencil can be daunting, and can wind up giving harsh, unnatural results. Instead, try using an angled brush and eyebrow powder to fill, shape, and accentuate your brows. We’ve broken the process down for you in 3 easy steps so you can have posh, powerful brows in the bat of an eye (literally).1. Wipe off your brows with a cotton ball to remove any traces of make-up or oil.

Dip an eyebrow powder brush, like the one above from Sephora into an eyebrow powder and gently tap it on a flat surface to remove any excess powder (splotchy brows are a no-go). When picking a powder, try to find one that is a shade lighter than your natural brow color if you have dark hair or a shade darker if you have fair hair. Alternatively, use a trio like the one below, which gives you the option of blending a few shades for a customized look.

If you’re worried about going overboard, focus on only applying the powder to the hair of your eyebrows, instead of your skin, a technique that will lighten up your brush hand even more. Unsure where to stop? Holding your brush vertically in front of your face so that it just touches the edge of your nose will show you where your brow should start. Hold your brush at an angle so that it starts at your nose and ends the tips of your eyelashes will show you where your brows should stop. Always remember, you’re shading in your natural brows, not drawing new ones on. Powder v. Pencils There are many reasons to go with a powder instead of a pencil when going bold with your brows. For one thing, it’s much less time consuming, and many powders come with a wax built in for extra hold, eliminating an extra grooming step. Powders also tend to look much more natural, and are easier to blend.

Photo: April, MayDiane Sitbon was only a child when she first realized just how cool a leather jacket could be. “When I was nine or 10, my mother dressed me like a ‘little bourgeoisie’ with smock dresses, hair bands, and velvet coats. I was not happy in these outfits—I wanted to wear flight leather jackets and jeans to school,” remembers the French designer. “I always told myself that when I grew up, I would wear whatever I wanted.” Today, Sitbon doesn’t just get to wear whatever she wants, but she also gets to design whatever she wants. Since 2005 she’s helmed April, May, a Parisian label that manages to be both extremely feminine and effortlessly sexy. While her clothes capture French insouciance—think jersey dresses with cut-out necklines, collar-less blazers, and geometric-print leather jackets that any woman would want in her wardrobe—they’ve not had much face time in the US; after briefly launching in America in the mid-aughts, the recession had April, May focusing on Europe. Their fall 2011 collection marks their triumphant return. For spring, Sitbon’s design inspiration comes from her travels. “My woman has moved from Paris to Santa Fe and Austin. She has gone on a road trip and is still wearing leather and sexy hot pants and feminine dresses and would wear boots everywhere,” explains the designer. While the collection includes sequined band jackets and tuxedo pants, Sitbon asserts that she’s not jumping on the menswear-as-womenswear trend just yet. “I wouldn’t say [the collection] is less feminine, I would say feminine in a different way,” she notes. That Sitbon, an Esmod and Central St. Martins graduate, understands what real women want may come from her years of experience at that other ultra-feminine French label, Paul & Joe. “It’s where I learned everything about running a business and trying to balance design with commercial appeal without compromising my ideas,” says Sitbon, who notes that in the years between leaving Paul & Joe and starting April, May she also freelanced for John Galliano and ran her own accessories line. If her most recent collection is any indicator, Sitbon has done a good job of sticking to her core principals, which she seems to have established as a 10-year-old yearning for a not-so-stuffy jacket. The French designer admits as much: “It’s very hard for me to decide on [a favorite April, May] piece, as I absolutely love everything…but the leather is driving me nuts!”

- Alesha Dixon and Solange Knowles both glows in the same mustard asymmetric Acne dress! Both ladies opted for big glam hair, but Alesha kept it neutral in nude patent heels and nude nails while Solange had tropical orange nails compaired with a beutiful ring. Who do you think wore it the best?

- Glee-fans listen up! Yesterday afternoon we spotted Glee-star Lea Michele Sarfati (Rachel) with an engagement ring on her left finger after filming a scene with her newly cast two of Glee. So, we guess we all know Rachels answer to Finn's proposal? Well, let's just hope that this is not some trick to get attention to the show and that she is screwing with us all! (perezhilton)
