Trend Alert: Ombre

Ombre is beginning to rear its pretty head and while it feels very warm-weathery, I'm already seeking a new ombre addition.

Ombre is beginning to rear its pretty head and while it feels very warm-weathery, I'm already seeking a new ombre addition. I'm still on the fence though — some of these items are dope, while some of them are dull. Here's the dilemma: It's a trendy motif, but only looks good on fine fabrics. Case in point: ombred fur at J. Mendel's Spring '08 show (pictured). Thus, one should seek out an ombre that looks expensive but doesn't break the bank. Ah, the trials and tribulations of fashion . . .

Designer of the Moment: Temperley London

There's a British invasion on the red carpet and the initiator is Temperley London.

There's a British invasion on the red carpet and the initiator is Temperley London. Only this is an intrusion we're happy to embrace. The red carpet is thriving thanks to Eva Mendes, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Halle Berry, who have all chosen designer Alice Temperley's eye-catching, feminine and intricate creations for recent events. It's the vibrant turquoise of Sarah's gown, the criss-cross bodice on Eva's frock, and the papillon accent on Halley's LBD that bestows Temperley as the designer of the moment.

Who's a Better Bad Girl, Kate or Naomi?

They've both been at the root of a scandal or two, and now they appear together on the February cover of Vogue Paris.

They've both been at the root of a scandal or two, and now they appear together on the February cover of Vogue Paris.

Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell are perfect choices for the magazine's "Bad Girls" issue, looking fierce in Louis Vuitton. But does one supermodel outdo the other? After all, I'm not sure a true bad girl would allow anyone else to be on her cover...
