When did this happen? When did Dakota Fanning grow up? Here she is at The Secret Life of Bees premiere looking stylish and age appropriate. A surprise considering it is Hollywood. At the tender age of 14 she’s already been in a Marc Jacobs ad campaign. She is well on her way to becoming a fashion icon before she’s even legal.

At last week’s Dolce and Gabbana show the theme was ‘glamorous shut-in’. The Italian designing duo paraded model after model wearing updated old school, gentleman’s PJ’s. I couldn’t help but wonder if the collection wasn’t inspired by Playboy founder Hugh Hefner? Hear me out, nobody has done more to popularize the satin pajama as a normal evening attire than Mr. Hefner.

It seems THE ‘IT’ item this Fall is the fedora. What dresses up your AA leggings and tri-blend shirt than this menswear favorite? The look has currently been spotted on: Mischa Barton, Rachel Bilson, and Vanessa Hudgens. SO channel your inner-Indiana Jones and rock this look come Fall.

Lindsay Lohan was out and about in Los Angeles doing what she does best, shopping while be photographed by the paparazzi. In this excursion Lohan lowered the bar of what is exceptable shopping attire. There was once a time when you dressed up to go shopping. You wanted to, you know, look your best. Lohan wore a tissue tee as a dress, accessorized with a black bra (visible through tee, of course) and black patent leather belt. Classy. Can I just say, no matter how good your legs are, you should never wear a t-shirt as a dress.

Less than a month ago, I wrote the first edition of Be Afraid, Very Afraid about my enthusiasm for the arrival of Peaches Geldof. I reported that she was possibly going to host NylonTV. Well that was no rumor, Geldof is the new host of NylonTV. Color me surprised when I spotted this video of Peaches and Fashion Indie ‘favorite’ Corey Kennedy introducing the October ‘It’ Girl Issue. In the past three years Nylon has become a magazine I don’t even recognize. Although I wish this pairing would cease after this video, the writer in me hopes the duo goes on and on. Why? Because these two hipster, style black holes make my job so much easier.

Catch the video of the Peaches and Corey clowning around here

Here’s a short interview with Fashion Indie fashion icon Chloe Sevigny:

HL: Does dressing for a big event stress you out?

CS: Oh, my God, yes. I have bad anxiety and dreams leading up to it.

HL: Are you a jealous person?

CS: Yeah. It’s not that I’m bitter, but sometimes I think, WHY HER?

HL: Are you competitive with other actors?

CS: There are careers that I aspire to have, like Cate Blanchett or Kate Winslet’s…but I think Hollywood is a little too enamored with British actors or people with accents.

HL: Do you ever shop your troubles away?

CS: I do that all the

HL: Finally, what were some of your favorite movies growing up?

CS: TOOTSIE, GREMLINS and THE EXORCIST.

Here’s Rachel Bilson looking fabulous for no reason, just the way I like it! I love this whole look, it’s a mixture of masculine and feminine, accented with some bejeweled heels. Bilson is rocking the same olive-green Ray Bans, the ones she has been with for the last two months.

A few years back Reese Withersoon had a major case of the mommies. As happens to most mothers, Witherspoon grabbed the first thing in her closet-Juciy tracksuits, jeans-you get the picture.

mommy-chic a few years back

But recently she has had a total style makeover. The wonders of having a younger, hotter boyfriend, I imagine. Here she is running an errand with her son. She’s learning what all us fashion lovers know, which is there is no occasion too banal for a pair of heels.

Look Britney Spears is not my thing. Although I enjoyed watching her meltdown, I was never a Brit Brit fan. But I was shocked when I saw these photos. She’s looking good again. I have to give credit where credit is due, Britney looks like old Britney again. Amen to that. She’s got those really good, expensive extensions, she’s looking fit again, the Fraps are still there but at least she fixed those nails.

I have mentioned my love for Carine Roitfeld, editor of French Vogue. It should come as no shock that her daughter, Julia, is just as awesome. Here she is modeling for British fashion accessories chain Accessorize. Enjoy!

For the last six months or so, Sacha Baron Cohen and his alter-ego Bruno have been filming all around the country terrorizing the unknowing masses. So it’s no surprise that the fashionable Austrian showed up at Milan Fashion Week to terrorize the unknowing fashion masses. The above image is Bruno crashing the Agatha Ruiz de la Prada fashion show.

Well last night photographer Greg Kessler caught Cohen outside the Versace show unable to get in. Bruno was dressed in all McQueen, naturally. Kessler reports that Bruno was seen frantically making phone calls and crying into his mobile phone trying to get into the show while be

Iggy Pop was one sexy mo-fo in the 1970′s. He would come out on stage with no shirt, silver pants, and cut up his chest. Now that’s rock and roll! This look inspired rockers from Axl Rose to Scott Wieland.

But now that his bloodletting days are over, Iggy has moved down to Florida and is taking things easier. What does a bad-ass rocker and a soccer mom have in common? Crocs! Here he is walking around in gray Crocs, shorts, and orange shirt.

This is what happens when fashion icons grow old.

Pheobe Arnold is as fashion editor over at Pop Magazine. She also has a wicked sense of style. Pheobe was photographed wearing some menswear inspired duds. Cool look, but it has been done before. Look no further than Diane Keaton in Annie Hall.

Mean, Yes. True, Absolutely.

According to a British poll Australian supermodel Elle Macpherson is the Greatest Supermodel of All Time. The model who rose to fame in the 1980′s beat out 3,000 other models for the title. Macpherson, nicknamed The Body, has appeared on six covers of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition

In second place is 1990′s supermodel Cindy Crawford

And in third was 1960′s icon Twiggy

If Kate Moss isn’t posing for one of the world’s top photog’s then she should be doing one of these three things. Or all of them as she did while attending the Vivienne Westwood show.

Drinking

Smoking

AND

Looking Good

However doing all three may chose you to end up a hot mess by the end of the night

An outfit that only a model could get away with.  From what I can tell Wasson is wearing a black doilie with some moccasin heels and bangles. Because when you are 5’10 and famous you can get away with wearing just about anything. Two band-aids and a pad, well that would look fabulous on her too.

Yesterday the blogs went crazy discussing the possible separation of Mary Kate Olsen and her twin Ashley’s fashion lines. The demise of the wobbly two-some has been predicted for some time now, because after all everybody loves a good breakup even-if it is among family. The dividing line seems to say that Ashley will design Rick Owen’s rip-off The Row, while Mary Kate will work on the funkier Elizabeth and James. Ashley has reportedly banned Mary Kate from The Row designing duites till she gets her personal life in order. Really? If every designer need to have their personal life in order before they worked, we would never get a collection from Marc Jacobs…..

Here’s a breakdown of the two lines

Elizabeth and James

For the upscale hobo look

The Row

For the sleek, nouveau riche city girl

What do you think?

Click on the image to read her advice:

A little background, Ossie Clark was the premiere designer to the rock n’ roll elite during the 1960′s and 1970′s. He was known for his gauzy-crazy prints, which were actually done by his wife Celia Birtwell-who still designs textiles.

What do you think? Just seems like another designer doing his own thing under the guise of someone else’s former glory.

Now look at this picture of Tom’s second wife Nicole Kidman. Once considered the most stylish woman in the world, Kidman’s outfit is a mishmash more suited for Helena Bonham Carter.

What is Tom Cruise doing to these women and their poor fashion sense?

‘[He's] Marc Jacobs for the next generation…. I expected to be wowed. You know, in my own way I’ve been in this industry for a long time, and I’m a bit jaded, but I was blown away…. I was just extremely proud of him. When I compare this collection to the collection that we saw at Project Runway for the finale, this was ‘real world.’ I would say, what I saw today represents about four or five years of evolution — not four or five months. He reallly is the next great American fashion designer, I’m confident. Holla at you boy!”

Oh Tim!

In the last few years Beckham has gone from long flowing extensions to stylish bob, so there was one place left to go-the pixie cut. Is she hoping gal-pal and style stealer Katie Holmes will follow suit? Victoria Beckham pixie cut may have been unexpected but, it has been seen before.

Victoria was channeling 1960′s fashion icons and pixie cut enthusiast Mia Farrow and Jean Seberg

It’s finally here! After much hype and fanfare here are the first pieces of M.I.A’s clothing line! The collection features bomber jackets, leggings, hoodies and T-shirts which are all uni-sex. Prices range from $65 for tank tops and $210 for bomber jackets.You can pick up the pieces at Miauk and Opening Ceremony.

I just thought I would let everybody know that Fashion Indie Creator Daniel Saynt and Editor-in-Chief Rebecca Alexander were married Saturday. Yes they are now bound together by law. Here are some photos of the beautiful nuptials.

Daniel reading his vows, we all waited with breath that was baited.

My view of their wedding. Paparazzi everywhere!

Some six hours later, finally at the part where they cut the cake.

Congratulations you two. Enjoy your honeymoon! Your loyal employees will hold down the blogging fort till you come back.

What on earth could studio head Harvey Weinstein and uber-stylist Rachel Zoe be reacting to?

A. I think Anna Wintour just winked at us!
B. How much Rachel just spent on a vintage Givenchy dress from 1954?
or
C. Harvey became restless at the fashion show’s late start and tried to eat Zoe, thinking she was a diamond encrusted, purple caftan wearing Churro.

How do I know this? It’s written on her shirt!

Yes, politically minded Sarah Jessica Parker wanted the world to know she’s into some ‘Barack n Roll’

Because you know the new trend in celebrity is to wear your support, not insistently talk about the candidate in press interviews, that is so 2004!

It’s like I always say ‘You Don’t Fuck with Anna Wintour.’ If she demands your first child, you better give her your first born pronto. Evidently politico-blog ‘The Huffington Post’ doesn’t know of my mantra. Because yesterday they posted this feature on the most powerful women in fashion

Vogue editor Anna Wintour is the international arbiter of fashion, recognized in an instant by her haircut and large sunglasses. But what does she really look like? Thanks to the strength of today’s digital cameras and the below AP photo from Thursday’s Tommy Hilfiger show, cropped several ways to show every pixel, now you can know.

And then they proceeded to display blown up photos of Miss. Wintour non-botoxed face and tennis-toned arms. All in poor taste, but I will show ya the photos anyway.

Sounds like Miss. Wintour is going to have a Huff-o writer’s head.
