Diane Kruger Gets Animalistic in Cabo — Love It or Hate It?

She's not the first one to sport the big-cat-emblazoned one-piece, but following in Rihanna's footsteps, Diane Kruger's showing off her affinity for the wild panther print.

She's not the first one to sport the big-cat-emblazoned one-piece, but following in Rihanna's footsteps, Diane Kruger's showing off her affinity for the wild panther print. The designers behind the kitty-cat face, We Are Handsome, are known for their graphic suits, but this one ($375) may be the boldest of their creations. While beau Joshua Jackson seems to like it, I'm putting it to you — what do you make of the fierce fashion statement?

The Next H&M Designer Collaboration!

Lanvin for H&M is a tough act to follow, but it was going to happen sooner or later.
Sweden's Top Fashion Blogger Elin Kling Designs Collection For H&M 2011-01-10 13:15:04

Lanvin for H&M is a tough act to follow, but it was going to happen sooner or later. One of Sweden's top fashion bloggers, Elin Kling, has designed a collection for H&M, and one look at the nine chic and modern pieces and you know H&M has its finger on the blogger phenomenon. The downside is the collection will only be available in Sweden, but it does make us wonder: could there be a designer collaboration with an American fashion blogger in the works? Click through to see the blond and leggy Kling modeling the collection herself.

Found! Brittany Snow's Standout LWD

In a sea of J.

In a sea of J. Mendel, Brittany Snow opted to go against the grain. So, while we assumed her glam little white dress had to be the handiwork of another major design house, happily we were mistaken. It turns out the pretty party dress Brittany was sporting at J. Mendel's kickoff party for Golden Globes week is a French Connection confection ($125, originally $298). We love the ethereal, goddess-like feel and soft draping, plus the standout shoulder accents — but we're even more smitten with the fact that it's on sale.

Are Platforms a Fashion Don't For 2011?

What are we to think?

What are we to think? Platform shoes were all over the Spring runways, yet three highly respected shoe designers told WWD that platforms are a fashion don't for 2011. Alejandro Ingelmo, who designed floral wedges for Chris Benz, said the top trend for 2011 would be "skinny sophisticated heels," while Tabitha Simmons, Manolo Blahnik, and Bruno Frisoni listed platform heels as a fashion "don't." So now I turn it over to you — do you prefer platforms or stilettos for 2011?
