Do you remember last week when I asked you to help me find a brand new medium coverage foundation to replace my old Prescriptives one? Although I think this one is great, the time has come to replace it. You gals did a phenomenal job of finding many more options for me.

Dress You Up! Vintage Print Dresses

Skip your morning coffee, or tea, and opt for a fabulous vintage print dress.

Skip your morning coffee, or tea, and opt for a fabulous vintage print dress. Yes, you could also scour vintage shops, I know that's what members of The Vintage Place!! are thinking. But that's a shopping mission and if you're not up to the challenge this Spring has lots and lots of offerings.

Same with trapeze style dresses, you can wear these with a heel or no heel; but if you want to wear it for evening I suggest a heel and some jewels as the vintage prints tend to dress down the dress (pun intended). For those bold gals out there who are all about colorful prints, have fun with these picks.

Stay tuned all week long as I'll be showing you some of the cutest dress styles right now; there will be something for everyone so...Dress You Up!.

A little while ago I showed you razzle bedazzle rhinestones.

A little while ago I showed you razzle bedazzle rhinestones. While those are pretty, biggie bling kicks their little sparkly ass. Spotted on the heads of models at the Spring collections, biggie bling has burst onto the scene. Many girls love to glam it up and this is the sure fire way to do it this Spring. The best part is that this trend is popping up everywhere so you don't have to spend hundreds and hundreds to get to wear these fatties. All you need is some confidence and biggie bling away!

Oh the sweet life of Cameron...shopping with Drew, plenty of time to work out, and frequent escapes to Hawaii. Must be nice. I'm no hater though, because she always manages to look cute while having fun. Here she is in Hawaii showing of her hard work with her trainer in a yummy sherbet bikini.

The Look for Less: Marc by Marc Jacobs Patent Bow Pumps

I hate to do this to one of my favorites but I must report it!

I hate to do this to one of my favorites but I must report it! Whilst shopping Macy's show department last week I did a double take with these Marc by Marc Jacobs shoes - I could have sworn I just saw them on the other side of the store. In the cheaper shoe section no less. I thought it was so obviously a Look for Less. While I have a soft spot for Marc shoes, the cheaper pair of shoes I saw were pretty darn cute too. This style is pretty classic, with its 40s peep toe pump persona. The argument could go both ways, but when I splurge on Marc shoes I like them to be something special. Something a bit out of the ordinary. Nonetheless, it's your call.

Fab Flash: GAP Gets Creative With Whites

We love it when huge companies team up with designers to bring affordable high fashion to the masses.

We love it when huge companies team up with designers to bring affordable high fashion to the masses. It has been reported that Gap Inc. has commissioned three of the 2006 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winners to design a limited edition collection for their stores.

The designers are: Kate and Laura Mulleavy of Rodarte, Doo-Ri Chung of Doo.Ri, and Thakoon Panichgul of Thakoon. The idea behind all of this was inspired by Gap's white shirt campaign.

We don't know all of the details, but we do know the designers were given a classic Gap white button down shirt to create something exceptional with.

The shirts (among other items) will launch alongside the white campaign. I don't know about you, but I am really excited to see what's to come. Stay tuned for more details!

Which Hairstyle Do You Like Best on Sienna?

One thing is for certain: no matter what hair style she chooses, Sienna Miller looks best as a blond.

One thing is for certain: no matter what hair style she chooses, Sienna Miller looks best as a blond. Sure she's tried different colors in movies; in Casanova she had red hair and in Factory Girl she was a brunette for about a second, but I really like her hair light and bright.

So it's really just a question about what style you like best on her. I am torn between her first look where her hair (although unkempt) is flowy, long and loose, and the last look where she's got a cute as pie pixie cut. Which hair style do you like best on Sienna?
