You undoubtedly remember the black polka dot Luella dress Cameron Diaz wore at the MTV Movie Awards. You did love it after all! Five months later, a skirt version has surfaced and is bound to make you giddy like it did to me.

This super-cute Luella Patti Polka Dot Skirt ($185) is ready to accompany you to your holiday parties and would look good bare legged or with tights. Thanks Luella for spreading a little preholiday cheer.

Simply Fab: Insolia Shoe Inserts

Whether or not you like to admit it, high heels kill after wearing them for a long period of time.

Whether or not you like to admit it, high heels kill after wearing them for a long period of time. Insolia, whose slogan is "Science Meets Sexy," has come up with a solution for aching feet.

With Insolia shoe inserts ($20 for 3-pack) your weight is shifted from the ball of your foot to the heel. It makes you feel as though you're wearing lower heels. The product is so popular, designers like DKNY are making shoes with the Insolia insole already in them!

Not convinced? Read customer testimonials and a doctor's explanation. Then give your poor feet a rest.

Gucci

Fab Read: Tom Ford

Tom Ford — where does one begin?

Tom Ford — where does one begin? The super designer undertook the difficult task of breathing life and sex appeal into two major fashion houses and he did it in a decade.

Through over 200 photographs by legends like Richard Avedon and Helmut Newton, Tom Ford by Graydon Carter and Anna Wintour ($92) chronicles his work at Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent from 1994 to 2004. It not only talks about the fabulous clothes and accessories, but also Ford's vision for the design of the brand, including the architecture, store design, and advertising.

What I'm dying to find out is how he increased Gucci's sales tenfold. He must have the midas touch!

Celebrity Style: America Ferrera

What makes America Ferrera Celebrity Style-worthy is her ability to look good dressing up and dressing down.

What makes America Ferrera Celebrity Style-worthy is her ability to look good dressing up and dressing down. Here, at the LA premiere of Enchanted, she's playing it relatively casual in a Nanette Lepore studded blouse and jeans. Her look is minimal but not dull. Go America for not letting the more fancily dressed attendees knock your confidence!

Come Spring, Kate Moss is fronting not one, but two major campaigns: YSL and Donna Karan.

Come Spring, Kate Moss is fronting not one, but two major campaigns: YSL and Donna Karan. Kate was photographed last week in LA for Donna's Spring 2008 campaign, with the images taking their cues from the collection's Nueva York theme.

This is the first time Kate will appear in a Donna Karan campaign, and Donna herself envisions Kate representing a woman whose "clothes don't wear her, she wears the clothes."
