| Giles’ Collaboration With Nine West Will Make You Say Eek! Posted: 04 May 2011 06:32 AM PDT
Earlier this week, Nine West hosted a preview of their collaboration with Giles at Le Bain, the Standard’s den of iniquity rarely seen during the light of day. Unfortunately, the bain itself was covered with a wood floor, but there still were mango martinis to indulge in. The best part of this daytime party, though, was Giles’ adorable and amazingly priced collection for Nine West and the funny anecdotes he offered about designing, action figures and hit Brit TV. Focusing primarily around Giles’ original character Eek (you’ve seen him on intarsia sweaters in Giles’ main line), this collab is nothing but fun. The shoes come in sophisticated black wedges, boots, and flats with tough-girl buckle details ranging from $99 to $149, and the totes, priced at $99, are cartoon-cute with Eek emblazoned on the outside and the most precious orange laptop case inside.

| Report: Kate Middleton and Sarah Burton Collaborated “50/50″ On the Dress Posted: 04 May 2011 06:02 AM PDT
Sarah Burton continued one of the most triumphant weeks in her career with a stop at Saks Fifth Avenue's flagship in NYC yesterday where she did a meet-and-greet in the McQueen shop there. Despite being told not to ask her about the royal wedding, human nature got the best of people. One attendee spoke to Burton and told WWD afterward of the conversation, "She said the princess was one of the most lovely women she has ever met and she was really low maintenance. She said the palace called her and the collaboration between her and Kate was 50-50." After that, Burton tried to avoid the topic, with mixed success.

| Would You Rather…? The Sequin Pasty Edition Posted: 03 May 2011 05:00 PM PDT
Never did I think I would say this, but Blake’s sequin trompe l’oeil pasty bears a striking resemblance to a certain pastie worn by none other than Lil’ Kim in 1999. So who’s revealing look do you love more: Blake’s or Lil’ Kim’s? Follow Fashionista on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.

| Kate Middleton Smelled Like White Gardenia Petals on Her Wedding Day Posted: 03 May 2011 03:52 PM PDT
Why has no one been talking about Kate Middleton's wedding perfume? A scent can be the ultimate accessory (though obviously it's difficult to take a picture of someone's smell). If you want to be very thorough in knocking off Kate's wedding, one must know these details. Basenotes, a very comprehensive and brainy fragrance blog, broke the news that Kate wore White Gardenia Petals by Illuminum. Never heard of Illuminum? The line's English founder, Michael Boadi, is a former celebrity and runway hair stylist. He launched a first line of perfumes (with the questionable name of Boadicea the Victorious), which currently has 35 fragrances. Michelle Obama purchased three of them back in 2009.

| The Top Ten Most Stylish Mother and Daughter Pairs; My Mom the Style Icon Weighs In Posted: 03 May 2011 03:31 PM PDT
Ever come across an old photo of your mom–you know, a photo from before you even existed–and thought, “Damn, my mom looks good” and then “OMG I want that whole outfit”? Piper Weiss did, so she started a blog called My Mom the Style Icon where she posts photos of stylish moms that date from the 1920s through the 1980s, tells the stories of the moms in the photos, and offers up hilarious commentary on their outfits. That blog is now a book, and last night Coach threw a party to celebrate its release–just in time for mother’s day. (Seriously, buy it now for your mom). True to her mom-style obsession, Weiss, who by day is an editor at Yahoo! Shine (you should read her stuff there because it’s hilarious), wore a vintage Pierre Cardin dress that was her mom’s in the 70s that she gave what she calls a “a shoulder pad-ectomy” and had shortened. Mama Weiss, the inspiration for the book, was there too, looking stylish as ever. There are exceptions to every rule, but it seems style is more often than not passed down from mothers to daughters. So we brainstormed with Weiss to come up with the ten of the most fashionable mother and daughter pairs, and she offered her two cents on each stylish duo. What other stylish mother daughter pairs did we leave off? Follow Fashionista on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.

Fashionista contributor Long Nguyen is the co-founder/style director of Flaunt. One of the 100 dresses featured in “Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty,” the Met’s Costume Institute retrospective of designer Alexander McQueen, is an ice blue and khaki lace dress, sliced to reveal nude underwear below the waist. It’s a dress I’ve always remembered from my first exposure to Mr. McQueen’s work. In March 1995, during my first year as a magazine editor, I went to London to attend London Fashion week. Late in the afternoon, on the third day of fashion week, I ducked into a tent to see the collection of a recent Central Saint Martins graduate who had been making waves.

| Met Gala Beauty Analysis: The Best and the Not-So-Good Posted: 03 May 2011 11:56 AM PDT
The Met Gala is all about the dresses, but as we know, fashion and beauty go hand in hand. There were some spectacular looks and some, um, interesting ones. We'll break it all down for you here. Some trends emerged, and we can say this: if you're still wearing boring lip gloss everyday, now's the time to run out and get some bold lipstick. Nude, dewy faces were also popular, so you have options for those days when you can't bear a red lip. Click through for the best and, we’ll just say “questionable” looks from last night's Met Gala.

| Quote of the Day: What Designer Thinks Kate Middleton Is a “Vanilla Whore”? Posted: 03 May 2011 09:00 AM PDT
–According to a blind item in Page Six, some designer deigned to slam Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, on the eve of her wedding (the Post surmises that the designer was bitter that he/she did not get the royal commission). Apparently the designer in question was drunk and stumbling out of the Boom Boom Room when he/she burned Middleton, loudly, to the delight of everyone around. Who do you think said it?

| New Nail Color Alert: Sally Hansen Salon Effects Releases Spring Patterns! Posted: 03 May 2011 08:00 AM PDT
When Sally Hansen launched their Salon Effects nail polish strips back in January, I was instantly smitten. It turns out that a lot of other people were, too, because the brand cannot keep them in stock anywhere. I'm currently hoarding two boxes of Misbehaved, the fishnet stocking pattern, which I'm saving for a special occasion. (Because fishnets on your nails are surprisingly versatile.) Sally Hansen is offering five new patterns–available this month–and they're perfect. The best of the bunch is Ay Ay Captain (a blue nautical stripe) which is going to look snazzy with all the striped knockoffs you're buying from Zara. There's also: Don't Get Catty (hot pink leopard), Check, Please! (black and white checks that bring to mind old school Vans), Show Your Stripes (a black and silver chevron pattern), and Wicked Bamboo (neutral stripes). Look for the new styles to hit drugstores everywhere over the course of May. Click through to see the other patterns. Follow Fashionista on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.

But of course, there was also Chanel, Balenciaga, Lanvin, Gucci, Givenchy, Valentino, etc., Click through to see who made our picks for the best dressed of the night.
