2007 CFDA Awards: Debra Messing

As you know, I love the color purple, so naturally, I really like Debra's purple halter frock.

As you know, I love the color purple, so naturally, I really like Debra's purple halter frock. It's everything a gorgeous gown should be: long, buttery and regal. I love the ruched detailing at the waist and the luxurious train. What do you think of it?

2007 CFDA Awards: Selita Ebanks

Selita looks beautiful! Very fresh, and I love her hair pulled back!

Selita looks beautiful! Very fresh, and I love her hair pulled back! I don't really like the pearlized sheen of her dress - it makes it look a little tacky, but the color is good on her! What do you all think?

2007 CFDA Awards: Heidi Klum

Who is this disco queen and what has she done with hot mama Heidi Klum?

Who is this disco queen and what has she done with hot mama Heidi Klum? There are too many things I dislike about this dress; the drab brown color, the cheesy glitter, the one-shoulder, the ruched draping and the list goes on. What do you think?

2007 CFDA Awards: Mary-Kate Olsen

Yikes, Mary-Kate! I love the white dress alone, but then the red and purple bag clashes with it.

Yikes, Mary-Kate! I love the white dress alone, but then the red and purple bag clashes with it. And let's be honest, the hairdo doesn't really help. I thought we were making progress when you dyed your hair back to blonde! Sadly, I was wrong. What do you all think?

2007 CFDA Awards: Kate Bosworth

Oh, Kate; are you 74 or 24?

Oh, Kate; are you 74 or 24? The actress looks so old lady in her knee-length feathery frock. It does absolutely nothing for her. And those matronly pumps don't even match! Do you agree?

2007 CFDA Awards: Chloe Sevigny

Chloe is well, just always in a league of her own.

Chloe is well, just always in a league of her own. Even at fashion events, I can't look at her outfit the same way I would look at anyone else's. That said, this is not one of my favorite Chloe outfits. The lipstick is not the right color of red for her, the gold, teal, and pearl earrings are too much even with a black dress, and the dress doesn't fit her well. What do you all think?

2007 CFDA Awards: Ashley Olsen

As always, Ashley looks sleek and chic.

As always, Ashley looks sleek and chic. I am in lust with her black blazer dress! It is incredibly innovative and demurely sexy. Her metallic cuff and white clutch are also genius. Bravo Ashley; you are a true fashion maven!

Simply Fab: Magnolia Oil Lamp

I'm always a sucker for cool lighting, so when I saw this Magnolia Tree Oil Lamp, $48, I fell in love.

I'm always a sucker for cool lighting, so when I saw this Magnolia Tree Oil Lamp, $48, I fell in love. Plus, I know how much you all like nature-themed motifs on your decorative pieces! It was designed by Adam Frank and uses an etched stainless steel tree form to project an image onto your wall. It's perfect for some serious mood lighting, or just to add some depth to a room!

Fabcon: Diane Kruger

I have sort of developed a fashion crush on Diane Kruger.

I have sort of developed a fashion crush on Diane Kruger. I have been stalking following her fashion choices and am thoroughly impressed - and even sometimes surprised. Surprised? For example, the Chanel muse wears a lot of black and white - one of the house's favorite color combos. Then, she'll go and bust out an aubergine ruffle tiered Valentino gown. And just when I thought she was always dressed to the nines and couldn't pull off casual chic, I find her in a pair of denim short shorts and a white blouse; a look that is trendy now, but she set the trend when she wore it almost a year ago. She also plays with her hair and makeup which I admire because there are some startlets who wear the same cut and style for years. This blonde beauty is a hands down fabcon - brava!
