Daily Look: Diane Kruger

Diane Kruger looks amazing in this beaded top and sequin skirt by Mui Mui at the New York City premiere of her new movie Inglourious Basterds. Not only is Kruger "on trend for fall" with her metallic ensemble but she keeps the look classic with red lips, black stilettos, and a delicate silver necklace; this minimalistic styling approach really allows the dress to be the statement piece of the outfit.

Daily Look: Olivia Palermo

Olivia Palermo, of MTV's The City, looks chic strolling the streets of New York City.

Daily Look: Ashley Tisdale

Ashley Tisdale is my Top Fashion Pick for the 2009 Teen Choice Awards red carpet. Tisdale wore a two-toned-purple hued bustier dress with origami-inspired skirt by Used/Unused. (Depending on the lighting the dress can appear lilac/purple or silver/black.) She styled the look with (breath-taking) studded Very-Prive-Peep-Toe Christian Louboutin heels, matching House of Lavande studded bracelets, and a Judith Leiber mirrored box clutch. I love this.

Daily Look: Jillian Harris

Jillian Harris, The Bachelorette, has a great since of style. Here Jillian appears on Live with Regis and Kelly wearing a light rose hued Tinkerbell Dress by Aritzia (also available in mint). This dress is very feminine because it is made of chiffon and bubbles out at the hip. Jillian styled this look with the same stunning metallic Badgley Mischka stilettos she wore on The Bachelorette Men Tell All and a delicate gold Stella and Dot Penelope necklace.

This fashionista first impressed me with her style when she stepped out of the limo on The Bachelor wearing this gold metallic mini dress. This dress is so modern yet classic with its cinched waist line, low back, and bow detail. She styles this look with a side pony tail that allows you to see the back of the dress and minimal jewelry that doesn't compete with the dress.

Daily Look: Cat Deeley

Last night, I fell in love... with 'So You Think You Can Dance' host Cat Deeley's stunning gold sequin dress. She completed this sun-goddess look with bronze gladiator stilettos by Camilla Skovgaard and long blonde waves. This mini dress is unique because it is almost a drop waist silhouette but there is rouching detail at the waistline as well. I love this shape and the three quarter length sleeves... Amazing.

Style Profile: Rachel Zoe

"Style is what one creates... glamour is a state of mind." -Rachel Zoe

Stylist, Celebrity, "Celebrity Stylist," Author, Reality Show Star, Editor, and now FASHION DESIGNER... there's not much that Rachel Zoe doesn't do. With a modest start as a fashion assistant at YM Magazine, Zoe worked her way up to Senior Fashion Editor. She then decided to "dive into" freelance styling. Since then she has developed A-List clientele and has made an "influential" impact on the fashion world.

He influence is undeniable because she works closely with the industry's top designers and editors: According to her own bio on her new website http://www.rachelzoe.com/, she does everything "from red carpet dressing to design collaborations, advertising campaigns to editorial shoots and runway shows." She is known as "the go-to force among “It” starlets, fashion houses, beauty firms and magazine editors looking for a dose of effortlessly chic style (rachelzoe.com)."

Besides this full resume, Zoe is taking on a "few" more projects... her second season of The Rachel Zoe Project premieres this fall, her new website features a daily Rachel Zoe Report, she is a contributing editor and consultant for piperlime.com, and she is rumored to be launching her own affordable fashion, accessories, and beauty line soon. How does she do it all? She credits her success to her passion for fashion, "I'd do this for free, I love it so much, (Haper's Bazaar)."

Remarkably her own personal style is equally influential: "Zoe’s own signature look – bronzed, sexy and wrapped up in Seventies-tinged laid back glamour – has rubbed off on well-known women and a few fashion collections alike. The Los Angeles Times noted the obvious influence of Zoe’s signature style on the runways, designers across the globe rely on Zoe for her fine tuned eye and Women’s Wear Daily traced Hollywood’s new look to Zoe’s own style (rachelzoe.com)."

As a Stylist, let's let zoe speak for herself:

Daily Look: Taylor Momsen

Taylor Momsen is Teen Vogue's September cover girl!! The fall fashion issue is one of Teen Vogue's biggest issues of the year and they chose the stylish Momsen to "headline the campaign." The theme of the shoot (according to Momsen) is a "mix of the harder things with the softer things... a little leather with t-shirts... with lots of jewelry... pretty but chunk at the same time." Fall trends such as statement necklaces and metallics were present in the styling as well as Momsen's signature leather and haunting eyeliner.She says her own personal style is "hard to describe because it is ever changing and ever evolving." (See Taylor Momsen's Style Profile Below!) The shoot took place in Central Park--The Dakota in the background--and was shot by legendary fashion photographer Patrick Demarchelier.
