I told you I would keep you up to date on LC's fashion show, and I'm not one to break my word.
I was a little concerned when I didn't see Lauren's name on the schedule for New York Fashion Week, but all is well — she is set to show during LA Fashion Week, which happens next month, Mar. 9-13. The Smashbox Studios venue is definitely more fitting for The Lauren Conrad Collection's laid-back, California feel. I might be at LA Fashion Week, too, so I'm glad I didn't miss out on LC, after all!
Surprise! You're heading to Hollywood to cover the Oscars red carpet on Sunday — and you're freaking out a little bit about what to wear. You have to compete with people who have stylists and have been painstakingly planning what they're wearing for months, and you only have a week. Eeek! The only solution is to go glam, go all-out, and get noticed!
Let's go Fab Finding! Be sure to come back and tell me when your Fab Finds are up, or just tag your Fab Finds with Oscars glam.
Now, you can build outfits by creating a list of clothing items. We have everything you need to build outfits, and you can use your Fab Find bookmarks, too. This is an even better way to put together an entire outfit when you are completing your Fab-Finding missions.

I'm sorry but this Free People Trimmy Trim Fringe Scarf ($58) has all the trimmings of a Christmas tree. The fringe, twists and tassels — is it too much? I can't help but think it looks a little mangy . . .
While I am more of a Chai latte girl, these ladies are making me yearn for a Mochachino. If you looked in my closet the least color you will see is beige or camel or tan — you get my point. When I feel like going colorless I prefer black or grey. But always one with an open mind about fashion, I may reconsider. Rachel, Sarah and Emma prove a sip of a Mochachino does provide quite a jolt.
Nina Ricci's Spring/Summer '08 ad campaign can easily be mistaken for Fall/Winter ads. The dark hues and layered clothes hardly scream Spring. Clearly that's what Olivier Theyskens was going for so he chose the ideal models — Karlie Kloss and Courtney Smerski — to convey the brooding mood. Regardless of the season, Mario Sorrenti's shots are captivating. They draw you in and make you want to dissect every aspect of each photo. But is it me or is Karlie Kloss (left) slightly upstaging Courtney? It may be her intense glare. What do you think about these ads?
The shoes come in modern shapes like peep toe flat, ankle boot, or gladiator wedge, and stick to the animal-friendly materials: suede microfiber, canvas, chambray, and rubber composite. Additionally, Gina has partnered with The Carbon Fund, vowing to plant a tree for each pair of shoes sold. Animal-friendly, earth-friendly, cute shoes: check, check, and check!
Cri de Coeur is available at Ravinstyle.com and runs $120-$250.
I love seeing red on the Oscars red carpet. And I'm not alone: Nicole Kidman, Uma Thurman, and Kate Winslet have all arrived in past years with a little fire in their eyes . . . and on their dresses. Catherine Zeta-Jones likes wearing red so much, she's a double-offender — her crimson years were 1999 and 2004. Perhaps we'll have a new lady in red come next Sunday, but in the meantime, let's look to the past for inspiration, kicking it off with Lucy Liu looking Fab in Versace.

Kristin Cavallari went with a black-lace, bra-baring top at The Breeders' Cup Winners Circle Event in LA. She paired it with black skinny pants, and kept things neutral with beige patent pumps and a matching clutch.
