Olivia Palermo usually sticks with a classic blowout, but it's nice to see her try out a fun and easy braided style. When we spotted her french-braided bun at the Pikolinos Gala Dinner last night, we couldn't help but stare. And with temperatures steadily rising, Olivia's dual french braids and twisted bun is an ideal style to try right now.

To get Olivia's look, start off with a texturizing powder, like Alterna's Bamboo Style Texturizing Body Boost ($22), which will give your hair the perfect grip. Part your hair down the center about two inches back, then tease the hair at the crown. French braid the two sides and then connect them in the center, securing with an elastic. Split the ponytail into two sections, tightly twist them, and then wrap them around the base of your ponytail for a woven look. Secure with pins and mist with hair spray.

Mark Wahlberg Brings Pain & Gain to NYC and Addresses Boston Bombings

Mark Wahlberg wore an all-black ensemble to the NYC screening of Pain & Gain at the Crosby Street Hotel last night. He was joined by rapper 50 Cent, Peter Facinelli, who had girlfriend Jaimie Alexander by his side, and New York Giants football star Victor Cruz for the movie's NYC debut. Olivia Palermo and boyfriend Johannes Huebl also joined Mark to take in his latest film. Missing from the action was his costar Dwayne Johnson, although he and Mark linked up last week to premiere Pain & Gain in Miami ahead of its April 26 release.

Last night was an unexpectedly somber occasion for Boston native Mark on the heels of the Boston Marathon bombings. Mark took to his Twitter account yesterday to wish his hometown well, saying, "Thoughts and prayers with my hometown Boston today." Mark was torn between supporting his film and expressing his worry for his family members back in Boston, and he conveyed his true feelings about the tragedy in an interview with reporters last night, explaining, "I really didn't even want to come tonight. I hadn't really heard much — I spoke to my mom, and most of my family seems to be okay. It's such a big event, there's so many people there. It's horrible man. It's [expletive] disgusting, man. I just — I'm very upset."

Olivia Palermo's Off-the-Rack Look Is Today's Reason to Shop at Zara

We usually want pretty much everything Olivia Palermo is wearing — here's the proof — fortunately, we can actually get it this time around.

We usually want pretty much everything Olivia Palermo is wearing — here's the proof — fortunately, we can actually get it this time around. When the style star stepped out last night in NYC, she mixed and matched three of Zara's high-street pieces in one evening-chic ensemble, giving us the off-the-rack proof of each piece's potential. She gave Zara's Double Breasted Blazer ($100) a cool-girl makeover when she paired it with leather bottoms, then proved the power of great accessories with both Zara's Neon Minaudière ($36) and Zara's Multi-Strap High Heel Sandals ($90). No, it's not the first time Miss Palermo has relied on the label as the foundation for a killer outfit, but it's another testament to the fashion darling's high-low styling skills that you can apply to your own wardrobe — starting with these three pieces.

You'd Never Suspect That Half of Olivia Palermo's Outfit Is Shoppable at Zara

Part of what we love about Olivia Palermo's style is that it's all at once inspirational and totally accessible.

Part of what we love about Olivia Palermo's style is that it's all at once inspirational and totally accessible. The fashion pro knows how to mix and match our favorite high-street labels with her own eclectic-chic angle. Case in point: her latest Spring party look relied on two great pieces that you might never suspect are from Zara — and totaling just under $220. Her peachy-hued Zara lightweight coat ($159) is sophisticated enough to top your Spring party dresses or provide a sleek outer layer to your workwear, while her printed Zara miniskirt ($60) could provide the standout counter to a basic black tee or white blouse, just like it did here. Both make worthy investments to wear together, à la Olivia, or mix and match all season long — and the best part? They're not really major investments after all. And, if you're in need of more Olivia Palermo outfit inspiration? Check out all of her recent looks here.

Olivia Palermo was joined by Nicky Hilton and Emmy Rossum for the New Yorkers For Children annual Spring dinner, presented by Valentino, last night in NYC. Olivia, who got into the spirit of the season by donning a bright yellow Katie Ermilio gown, had boyfriend Johannes Huebl on her arm for the charitable evening out. Nicky was accompanied by boyfriend James Rothschild, and models Erin Heatherton and Hilary Rhoda were also on hand to attend the annual event that aims to support youth in foster care.

Emmy has been putting in time in her hometown after wrapping the current season of her hit show, Shameless, with the season finale airing on Sunday night. She is not only a small-screen star, but is also pursuing a career in music, and she put her skills to use signing the national anthem at the Mets' opening day at Citi Field last week.

Hello, Leather: 24 Celebs Who Prefer a Much Edgier Kind of LBD

Getting bored with your little black dress?

Getting bored with your little black dress? Allow us to shed some light on the latest trend in cocktail attire: the edgy, rocker-cool leather dress. We saw tons of them on the runways from designers like Calvin Klein, Derek Lam, Céline, and more — but their wearability transcends the catwalk. Whether you go with an all-leather piece like Olivia Palermo's or try the trend in a smaller way, like Jessica Alba's LBD with a leather bra top, it's a look that will definitely have you standing out from the crowd (in the best possible way). From the girlie-glam looks of Lauren Conrad and Kerry Washington to the full-blown fashion-renegade vibe given by Kristen Stewart and Doutzen Kroes, the leather dress has proven to be surprisingly versatile, especially when worn with a great pair of heels and minimal accessories. Click through to see 24 style-setters who have reinvented the LBD wheel, and then shop our editors' picks.

The Host's NYC red carpet drew out a trio of event-worthy looks from Diane Kruger, Saoirse Ronan, and Olivia Palermo. The film's leading ladies faced off in two distinct takes on red-carpet dressing: Diane paired a Chanel minidress with a pair of over-the-knee Christian Louboutin boots, while her costar Saoirse stepped out in a more high-impact hued, asymmetrical Proenza Schouler sheath. To add to the style prowess at the premiere, Olivia joined the cast, arriving in a leather sheath dress, which she gave the quintessential Olivia Palermo styling treatment with a healthy dose of eclectic accessories, including a pair of feather-trimmed heels and an embroidered clutch. Now that you've got all the outfit details, it's time to weigh in — who stole the show at The Host's NYC premiere?

Diane Kruger got literal support from Joshua Jackson when he guided his girlfriend to the Host screening at The Cinema Society in NYC yesterday. She wore a black Chanel dress and sky-high Christian Louboutin boots, which may have been part of the reason Joshua needed to walk her to the premiere. Diane was joined at the screening by her costars Saoirse Ronan, Max Irons, and Jake Abel, as well as the author of the book the film is based on, Stephenie Meyer. Other NYC celebrities also attended the big event, including Olivia Palermo and Kelly Rutherford.

Diane has been busy with promotional duties for her newest film and Joshua has been staying by her side through her whole tour. He walked the red carpet with her at the LA premiere of The Host and took her on a dinner date in NYC earlier this week. Diane's duties aren't over just yet, as she'll also be appearing on Good Morning America today to chat about the new flick.
