Diane, Eva, Freida, and More Hit the Cannes Film Festival Red Carpet in Ultraglam Looks


Updated 05/16/12 1:49 PM · Posted by · 2 comments

The Cannes Film Festival is off to an impossibly chic start, thanks to the likes of official jury member Diane Kruger, Eva Longoria, and Freida Pinto. These A-list starlets have pulled out all the stops on their French Riviera panache, and tonight's red-carpet arrivals at the Moonrise Kingdom premiere and opening ceremony gala were solid styling proof. After Diane's sexy Versus minidress appearance earlier, we were totally swept away by her altogether serene aqua drape-shouldered Giambattista Valli creation. To add to the glamour, Eva stunned in an ornate Marchesa gown, complete with decadent tulle train, Freida kept it fresh in an embellished pink Michael Angel number, and Jessica Chastain opted for a minimalist chic Alexander McQueen dress. There's more where that came from — and since this is just the beginning of 11 days' worth of sunny celeb red-carpet style, be sure to keep checking our Cannes who-wore-what roundup for even more glamorous film fest appearances.

See the Outlandish Crowns Mulberry, Lanvin, and More Designed for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee


Updated 05/16/12 1:00 PM · Posted by · 0 comments

We're excited to bring you the best fashion finds, shopping stories, and style news from one of our favorite sites, Fashionista. Today, they're giving us a look at the crowns designed for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.

Queen Elizabeth has long been considered a woman of many hats–and she’ll soon be adding many more to her burgeoning collection of (mainly pastel) headwear.

In honor of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, Harrods has tapped thirty-one of the biggest names in fashion–including Mulberry, Valentino, and Lanvin–to design revamped versions of the St. Edward’s Crown, the fancy-pants topper Elizabeth wore during her coronation way back in 1953.

And while there’s maybe a little too much crushed velvet for our taste, there’s also at least one fuzzy Jamiroquoi hat (Cavalli), one tiny Corgi (Paul Smith), two life size snakes (Bulgari and Boucheron), and what appears to be a crown made entirely of that caviar nail polish (Mulberry).

All the designs will be on display at Harrods in London starting today–but if, like us, you’ll be on the wrong side of the pond for all the jubilation, here are fourteen of the new crowns via Vogue UK. Cheers, m’dears.

Celebrities Wearing Hot Pink

With all the bold pops of color to choose from this season — yellow, lime, aqua — is there any one more classic that hot pink? Not only did we spot the hue in Spring collections from Tory Burch, Nanette Lepore, and more, but some of our favorite style-setting celebs have been incorporating the color into their wardrobes as well. Though the standard for red-carpet fixtures like Nina Dobrev, Caroline Sieber, and Lindsay Ellingson is to pair these brights with neutral black or white, you can always take it a step further by mixing your brights together — think a hot pink top with bright blue trousers, or an electric yellow blouse tucked into a pink pencil skirt. For some more chic examples, we've rounded up 10 of our favorite recent celebrity examples of hot pink done right. Click through to see how they do it, then shop our editors' picks.
