Audrey Hu, designer of AH Jewelry, is no stranger to the fashion industry. In 2002, she launched what was once a favorite past-time (isn't that what they all say?) to a full-fledged business named AH Jewelry. Since then, her precious feathers and metals have been featured in numerous magazines and runway shows. It doesn't stop there; her signature peacock line has also been spotted on celebrities including Beyonce, Hillary Duff, and Naomi Campbell. Audrey's boho collection has left me totally smitten — I just might add it to my list of must haves!

If you don't mind wearing last season's clothes, and you believe that quality never dates, then check out UK's LastSeason.com. Mens and womens season-old discounted items comes straight from manufacturers and includes brands like Diesel, Unique Boutique, and Pepe Jeans. But that's not the most interesting part of the site. Pete Doherty fans — Danny, I'm talking to you — will be thrilled to know that the online store has launched a Pete Doherty Welfare Fund. You read right. Ten percent of all sales of stripey tops will go to the Babyshambles singer when he gets out of jail in July. Innn-teresting.

There are so many questions I'd love to ask designers: "Beyond fashion, what are your other sources of inspiration?" and "What is your favorite decade in terms of fashion?" Because a face-to-face Q&A session is unlikely to happen in this lifetime, Michael Specter's The Fashion Questionnaire ($35) will come in quite handy.

Specter interviews 21 designers like Alber Elbaz (who has a self-portrait at the introduction of his section), Olivier Theyskens, and Diane von Furstenberg. The industry greats dish about their fashion motto, style icons, favorite color, and so on. It's like seeing into their world, minus the intimidating encounter.

Budding fashion favorite Ginnifer Goodwin showed up at the LA premiere of Speed Racer in a gorgeously bohemian Malandrino resort dress that's yet to become available online. Even with its multitude of colors and ruffle hem, the print manages not to overwhelm, thanks to a shorter hemline and shoulder-baring cut. I don't know about you, but just looking at her is making me want to go on a major dress binge to prep for the Summer.

We already learned that Fergie and Liv Tyler are attending as guests of Calvin Klein, and Tilda Swinton is accompanying Prada, but as the Costume Institute gala fast approaches on May 5, more details have leaked.

Giorgio Armani is said to be dressing Julia Roberts, George Clooney, Tom Cruise, and Katie Holmes, but it doesn't stop there. Rumor has it that Jennifer Lopez is coming with Alberta Ferretti, Kate Bosworth with Chanel, and Eva Mendes and Rachel Bilson are also attending with Calvin Klein.

They haven't been connected to specific designers yet, but other expected attendees include Renée Zellweger, Scarlett Johansson, Kate Moss, Mary J. Blige, Claire Danes, Mischa Barton, LeBron James, as well as designers Valentino, Tom Ford, Domenico Dolce, Stefano Gabbana, and Donatella Versace.

Actress Michelle Monaghan is on my radar, hardcore. First she outshone everyone at A Night of a Thousand Lights in her dreamy Marchesa accordian-pleated frock, and now she attended the Tribeca Film Festival in the most polished menswear-inspired ensemble I've seen to date.

The kicker? Her fuchsia, suede, fringe shoes. Like the fringe footwear in Etro's Spring collection, they provide a funky twist. Should you sport an equally minimal look, take it up a notch with fringe footsies!

Your phone rings, and on the other line is . . . your ex! He's just invited you out for a drink this week and even though you were caught way off guard, you somehow accepted.

I'll start you off with this Boucheron Fantasy Ring ($2,180) because not only will it intimidate him, it will come in handy if things go awry.
