This Week's Fab Favorite: Michelle Monaghan

Newcomer Michelle Monaghan had so many outstanding outfits this week, at first I didn't have the heart to choose one over the others.

Newcomer Michelle Monaghan had so many outstanding outfits this week, at first I didn't have the heart to choose one over the others. They were all Fabtastic, but ultimately it came down to this logic: This stunning satin, one-shoulder Erin Fetherston dress takes a characteristic from each of her earlier looks from the week and melds them harmoniously.
It's pitch black like the Monique Lhuillier dress she donned at the Made of Honor NYC premiere and adorned like the grey Lanvin frock she wore on TRL. So far, this girl has done no wrong. In fact, she's done more than just right with her choice of chunky necklace and caged sandals. I'll let Buzz assess her acting skills, but other actresses should fear her fashion sense because it's a force to be reckoned with.

Glitterati: Devon Leigh

After receiving her degree in film and screenwriting, Devon Leigh was originally destined to be a part of the film industry.

After receiving her degree in film and screenwriting, Devon Leigh was originally destined to be a part of the film industry. Fate, however, had other plans in mind for her. While working on film sets, people were so enthralled with her handmade jewelry, they were literally buying the pieces right off her neck!

Her dazzling and unique jewelry has graced the neck of numerous A-list players in Hollywood. Devon's hefty résumé includes Alicia Keys, Kate Bosworth, Joss Stone, Elizabeth Taylor, and Kirsten Dunst. Stylists have used her pieces in numerous movies and television shows including my all-time favorite, Sex and the City.

Style For Style: Sweaty Feet Fix

I have these Theory Mirror leather sandals ($207) in pewter and have been wearing them to death — they are a great alternative to black shoes and the criss-cross style is very modern.

I have these Theory Mirror leather sandals ($207) in pewter and have been wearing them to death — they are a great alternative to black shoes and the criss-cross style is very modern. But never have I worn them when I was in hot weather, and so, I recently found out they have a slippery inside. I was caught in this dilemma while living it up in LA at Hills' hangout Les Deux with PartySugar. I was so nervous slipping around in my shoes, I had to find a quick solution.

Banana Republic

Sneak Peek! Banana Republic Fall '08 Collection

I know Spring and Summer are on your mind, but switch your mindset for a second because Banana Republic's Fall '08 collection is way desirable.

I know Spring and Summer are on your mind, but switch your mindset for a second because Banana Republic's Fall '08 collection is way desirable. Despite the gloomy weather that accompanies autumn, it's making me look forward to bundling up and layering.

You'll notice this collection is mostly monochrome, with sprinkles of red to surprise the eyes. On the outerwear front, there are lots of greys, extra-long cardigans, cropped pea coats, and slick leather trenches. The trousers are mostly skinny, checkered, and menswear-ish. Fall's frocks come with lots of personality: Prada-inspired lace dress (left), red taffeta sheaths, and sleek LBDs. Tie-front styles and berets are also prevalent for Fall.

Celebrity Style: Cameron Diaz

Let the Cameron sightings begin!

Let the Cameron sightings begin! What Happens in Vegas promotions have started and first up was the LA premiere. Lake Bell and Eva Longoria were present, but Cameron made sure to stand out in a red, body con Zac Posen dress. Isn't the oversized bow charming? In true Cameron fashion, she kept her tresses casual and let her body do all the talking. Do you approve of the chatter?
