Put a little avant-garde kick into your Valentine's Day plans this year. How so? By creating a look inspired by Dolce & Gabbana's Spring '10 collection. It's a cinch to re-create, and you probably have the ingredients in your closet.
Start with a sassy floral minidress and layer it over a sheer black tee. Note the black bra straps subtly showing under the tee — that's on purpose. Next, deck your neck out in a chunky coin necklace, and do the same with your wrist. For the bottom portion, tan pumps allow your top to shine. Though not required, rock sheer socks if you dare. A more mainstream variation is to simply wear sheer hose or opaque tights. Have a very Dolce & Gabbana V-Day!
Frida Gustavsson combines preppy tailoring with casual accessories to create her stylish off-duty look. The Swedish model selects classic pieces that reflect an understated elegance along with showcasing her ultra long legs. Over the last year she has risen through the ranks, walking in an incredible 60 shows for Spring '10. No doubt, her street style will continue to impress as her popularity continues to grow.

Imagine this, ladies: winning a head-to-toe Rachel Rachel Roy outfit — I'm talking a top and bottom or a dress, a pair of shoes, and accessories — all picked out by the stunning designer herself. Sounds surreal, right? What's more, you can feel good about participating because the always-charitable Roy will donate $1 to Yéle Haiti for each entrant. Enter now to help a great cause and possibly score a brand new, impossibly chic outfit!

I'm pulling the plug on entries Wednesday, Feb. 17, Monday, at 11:59 p.m. Good luck!
For our final Paint It Black ensemble, I decided to put on my liquid legs, aka liquid leggings. They're surprisingly comfortable; I can spend days in them. Since they're trendy, I kept the rest of me tame by wearing a V-neck tee and a long knit vest. A slim brown belt, layered gold necklaces, and gold bangles serve as subtle highlights. It's been noir-tastic ladies — over and out.

Cat Deeley looked casual and cute outside the BBC Radio One studios in London. She wore Hudson black skinny jeans and kept warm with a feminine white pom-pom scarf and soft green leather jacket (similar in color to this one by Tory Burch), adding a Pauric Sweeney python bag and tough combat boots to give the look more of an edge.
