While her Bride Wars red carpet stunt was debatable, Anne Hathaway hit the fashion mark at the Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards. Leave it to the transformed actress to take the LBD to the next level of sizzling hotness. She looks insanely sleek wearing Balmain's black corset dress and furry black Christian Louboutin platform pumps.

The semisheer, asymmetrical lace inset adds sultriness to her dress and I love her natural makeup palette. Being it was a Cartier-sponsored event, Anne appropriately accessorized in an abundance of Cartier diamond-encrusted jewels. Her look is sexy, sophisticated, yet unique.

After viewing Michael Kors's 2009 Pre-Fall collection, here's what we need to do to be in the know: wrap a thick, black headband around head; wear a long-sleeve turtleneck underneath a crop-sleeve coat, combine loud patterns, seek unique necklaces, don't be afraid of boxy cuts, overdo leopard. Phew! It's a lot to take in, but it all comes together beautifully, as exemplified by models Kasia Struss, Lindsay Ellingson, and Chanel Iman. If your goal is to look polished, mature, but with off-kilter undertones, this Kors collection will be of inspiration to you. I know I'll be taking away a few things myself.

As Winter progresses the days seem to get nippier and nippier. I get cold easily so jackets are always on my mind. I landed on a goldmine when I found this Soft Trench Coat ($55, originally $148) at Gap. The picture doesn't do it justice; the wool blend is so soft and the cut is fabulous. It looks nice buttoned up, but I love it worn open. Word to the wise, this coat runs big, so size down. Hurry up, they're flying off the racks . . .

Is there anything Roberto Cavalli doesn't do these days? Besides putting his name on a cell phone, vodka, Coke bottles, and nightclubs, the designer has now designed a credit card. A MasterCard to be exact. The "Cavalli Card," available March 1, has iridescent colors similar to his yacht. It also has his iconic snakeskin print and his name in shiny gold. If you want to show off your credit card in style, visit www.robertocavallicard.com or a Roberto Cavalli boutique starting in March to get an application form. Oh, and look for a star-studded launch event during Milan Fashion Week in March.

I just love it when women wear their coats as dresses. It lends mystery; after all, we don't know what's on underneath. But that's not the only reason I'm crushing on Victoria Beckham's Milan ensemble. Her Dolce & Gabbana jeweled headband, which she's worn once before, also plays a big part. It makes her head sparkle and adds a luxurious spin to her outfit. She completed her look with patent black Christian Louboutin boots and two handsomely dapper sons.

It's with utmost sadness that I report that one of our favorite online retailers, eLuxury.com, is planning on closing its retail operation over the next six months. While many shops are closing due to the recession, it is said that eLuxury's closure isn't due to its financial performance. Rather, it's because many of the brands it carries have their own online presence.
But it's not all tears over at the LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton-owned company. “Starting in mid 2009, eLuxury’s new mission will be to create an ‘e-window’ into the world of luxury, by serving as an information reference for luxury in fashion, art de vivre, leather goods, wines and spirits, watches and jewelry, gastronomy, cars, yachts, and services,” said a spokeswoman. We will miss shopping from the high-end retailer, but look forward to what sounds like an exciting online magazine.
