Today 6:00 PM PST by Daisy Becerra Nicki Minaj Nicki Minaj always sports wacky ensembles to normal events. So, you know she saved the best for music's biggest night, the Grammys. While everyone expected to see her wear something that would stir up a conversation, we never would have imagined she'd wear a little red riding hood meets high priestess cloak by Versace. >>>RELATED: Fashion Meets Music In fact, the Italian label is the same one who designed Jennifer Lopez's iconic look back in 2000. So that sort of makes us ask the question: Will this outfit costume become an iconic look? Only time will tell, but her appearance tonight will definitely be memorable. The "Super Bass" singer didn't only have the guts to wear this getup; she also strolled down the carpet with a pope look-alike. The rapper sure is taking notes from Lady Gaga on how to make an entrance. We still remember when she came to the Grammys in a giant egg! Take a look at the singer with her, um, leading man after the break. >>>PHOTOS: 2012 Awards Shows: Worst Dressed Celebs Read More Print Share Link Add your comment Categories: versace , 2012 grammys , fashion and style , Fashion , nicki minaj Photo by: Jason Merritt/Getty Images Ashley Greene Sinks Her Teeth Into NYFW with Blood Red Dress Today 5:00 PM PST by Kathryn Collings Ashley Greene DKNY Model Shout Out, Mystyle Blog Inset graphics Thank you, Ashley Greene for reminding us we need to get a killer Valentine's Day dress pronto! Too bad we can't call up Donna Karan ourselves and have one custom made. Ah, the perks of being a designer's darling! All jealousy aside, the star of DKNY's campaign looked incredible at the veteran designer's fashion show today in NYC. >>>MORE: Catch up on NYFW with Fashion Week Flash Her short-sleeve DKNY frock with the key-hole detail fit her perfectly and was a fresh burst of color. While the black tights and black shoes combo isn't exactly exciting, we can't blame the girl for wanting to cover up. After all, Donna had the doors of the venue thrown open, and the models hit the skyscraper-printed catwalk from outside. The quintessential New York designer even had a DKNY cab parked at the head of the runway as the ultimate urban backdrop.

We are serious about this! While BCBGMAXAZRIA had their models in colorblock numbers, Jason Wu showcased a slew of dark Victorian-inspired creations. So, this goes to show the wide range of the hue and styles they can be teamed with. And not to mention, since the color is so close to the one on your nails, people will hardly be able to notice when they start to chip! Click in to shop our fabulous steal 'n' splurge finds!

Today 2:00 PM PST by Daisy Becerra BAFTA, Kristen Wiig, Viola Davis, Jessica Chastain, Michelle Williams, Penelope Cruz Award season is in full swing! However, today, the movie stars didn't walk down a red carpet in L.A.—although, musicians will tonight for the Grammys! Instead they went all the way across to good ol' London for the BAFTA Awards, which took place at the Royal Opera House. >>>PHOTOS: See what celebs were doing in New York Sadly, the Duchess of Cambridge wasn't at the shindig, but a bevy of other babes showed why they are Hollywood royalty. Penélope Cruz went for a strapless crimson gown by Armani Privé. She proved that the only jewelry she needed to standout with was a pair of oversized diamond studs. Funnygal Kristen Wiig also decided to keep the bling to a minimum by teaming her white Alberta Ferretti dress with gold bracelets. On the other hand, Jessica Chastain and Michelle Williams couldn't resist adorning themselves with stunning necklaces. While The Tree of Life star opted to team her gems with an equally shiny Oscar de la Renta confection, the My Week with Marilyn star went for a classic black-and-white flower-accented gown that was created by H&M—sadly, this was a custom made piece, so you won't find it at your local store. The pixie-haired actress finalized the look with an adorable book-inspired clutch. Like Michelle, Viola Davis, too, wore a custom gown; however, her one-shoulder pink stunner was courtesy of Valentino. Vote on your best dressed actress below.

Today 1:00 PM PST by Kathryn Collings NYFW Collar Secret Au Courant, Mystyle Blog Inset graphics TREND: Contrast collar dresses WHO'S WEARING IT: Models at Lela Rose, Kate Spade and Rebecca Minkoff HOW TO WEAR IT: Good thing we like the statement collar, ‘cause it's the trend that just won't quit! Even though celebs have been wearing the quirky cute style for months now, major designers have confirmed the collar is here to stay for at least another season. To cop the youthful look for yourself, simply coordinate your shoes and coat to your dress, so the collar can shine on its own. And if you're wary of investing in the fad, go ahead and fake the look by layering a sleeveless collared shirt under a dress—you'll be incredibly au courant, and no will be any the wiser!

The glamazon took a break from spewing her profanity-laden opinion on her husband's performance to show us what she does best—owning the runway. The hot mamma looked incredible as strutted down the catwalk in the final look at Alexander Wang's fall fashion show. >>>MORE: Guess which Hills star is a Wang fan? The collection was dominated by dark, lacquered looks with a generous use of leather. The high-gloss ensembles were made up mostly of utilitarian separates including below-the-knee skirts and buttoned up coats. Some models were outfitted with curious face coverings that seemed to reference surgical flu masks. While Gisele's leather trench coat reminds us a bit of The Matrix, there's no denying she looks utterly fabulous. While she appeared to be in the zone on the runway, we have to wonder if Tom Brady was backstage yelling at the other models to walk properly. After all, his wife can't do everything!

David Beckham looked utterly posh in a gray suit with matching tie. He kept it in the color family by dressing his six month old daughter, Harper, in a dove gray dress. A cream knit hat and stockings made sure the little babe was kept warm against the brutal Big Apple weather. Once inside the venue, the soccer star sat front row in the most coveted seat in the house: right next to Anna Wintour. >>>RELATED: Fashion Week Besties: Anna Wintour and Nicki Minaj In fact, the Fashion Bible's Editor In Chief held little Harper on her lap for the duration of the show. Actually we kid about that last bit—Ms. Wintour does not touch children. The Vogue editor did take in the show, though, right next to Victoria's proud husband, who beamed as the bodycon sheath dresses in red, olive and black came down the runway. The overall effect was minimalist and chic, oozing the type of grown-up glamour Mrs. Beckham is known for herself. It's a good think the Galaxy player appeared to love the collection, as it's sure to be all that his self-promoting wife will wear in the coming months! >>>PHOTOS: Stay updated with Fashion Week Flash Read More Print Share Link Add your comment Categories: new york fashion week , fashion and style , fashion week , Fashion , fashion galleries , nyfw fall 2012 , harper beckham , victoria beckham , david beckham Photo by: Arnaldo Magnani/Getty Images Liberty Rolls Go Mono at Lela Rose | Hollywood yohana

Katy Perry, Lela Rose model

Last November, when we asked you if you would dare sport the classic double roll ‘do like Katy Perry, most of you were on the fence. If you weren't totally convinced of the hairstyle then, Lela Rose has offered up a new take on the ‘40s era look with a dramatic single swoop. The man behind the hairstyle, Ted Gibson, drew upon architectural shapes to create a modified Gibson-girl style. To make sure the models looked flawless, his Build It Blow Dry Spray was used to anchor the gravity-defying tresses.


While we think the hairstyle echoed the collection perfectly—retro knee-length shifts and feminine coats abounded—we have to say the look still feels stuck in another decade. While it might be fun to play up the vintage feel of an ensemble, it's not a coif that feels modern at all. Not to mention, we wouldn't even know how to begin recreating the structural up-do at home!
