Madonna

Is Madonna dressing under the influence?

Madonna's divorce is really turning her into a monster! Okay, not really. But get a load of her Louis Vuitton feathered mini. It makes her look like a swamp beast! Plus, the Material Girl's thick bangles, metallic belt and gladiator pumps weigh down the look. Next time, leave the theatrics on stage, Madge.

StyleTest Drive

HollywoodSecrets Five-Minute Eye Transformation ($89.95) promises to dramatically diminish wrinkles and puffiness immediately. Just snap the tip of each cotton swab applicator, allow product to saturate the tip and dab around the eye area. Read on to see if the serum got our Style staffers ready for their closeups.

Merah Chung

Pros: Super easy to use!
Cons: My skin felt tighter, but it didn't make my wrinkles less noticeable. It also didn't feel hydrating enough.

Watch Tyra Banks in the season finale of America's Next Top Model. Then rate her look.

I love Tyra, but her space-age dress last night was totally wacko, even for her. And what about that Coneheads updo?

But my biggest problem with her finale frock is that it reminded me of Beyoncé. B.'s new alter ego, Sasha Fierce, has been ripping off Tyra's look, and even her language—after all, Tyra's been saying "fierce" for years. 

But if we want to give props to the original space cadet, that would be Miss Janet Jackson. Now, she's the true trendsetter.

How would you rate Tyra's look last night? Vote now!

Tyra's ANTM Season Finale Look

How would you rate it?

  • 1: Fugly
  • 2: Flawed
  • 3: Whatevs
  • 4: Tolerable

Elisha Cuthbert

Is Elisha Cuthbert dressing under the influence?

Elisha Cuthbert has made countless Sexiest Women of the Year lists, so this frumpy look is extra disappointing. We're not saying she has to go for extreme exposure like fellow sex kitten Megan Fox. In fact, Elisha's feathered knee-length skirt has great potential. It's just overshadowed by an extremely unflattering circa-2002 peasant top.

Anthropologie Gregarious Dress

What do you wear to a company holiday party? I want to look sexy, but not inappropriate.
—Ericka, Sherman Oaks, California

Style Spy Says: Berry

No, no you do not want to look sexy. I don't care how single-and-looking you are. I don't care if you work for Donatella Versace. Work parties and The Sexy do not mix. Ever. Save your urge to look sexy for the clubs, or the cocktail-party-slash-night-wedding, or New Year's Eve. For a work party—even a festive, champagne-fizzy holiday party—you want to look stylish, smart, future-forward. But not sexy. At a work party, sexy equals desperate. Leave it alone.

That isn't to say that your ensemble shouldn't whisper, "Look at me!"

Boots: Gisele Bundchen, Heidi Montag, Blake Lively

Mystyle Style Class: Cutting Edge

We're kinda over the studded belt, which was the accessory of choice last summer, thanks in part to the Sex and the City movie. Nowadays, we're channeling our inner rock diva with studded boots. The shoes' edgy embellishments give plain Jane outfits some oomph. Take our advice and invest in a high-heeled pair. Flat ones just don't have the same femme fatale feel.

To get the look, shop the steals 'n' splurges gallery below. But first, guess who's struttin' her stuff in studded boots? One is a Patriots-loving supermodel, another is a total Gossip Girl, and you can find the other hangin' in The Hills. Keep reading for the answer!

Nicole Kidman

I have no problem with stars remaining loyal to a designer. Hey, if anyone wants to supply me with a week's worth of high-fashion frocks, you bet I'll wear them every day. But why did Nicole Kidman choose all white L'Wren Scott dresses?

Vote on the possible reasons below, or a leave a comment explaining why you think Nicole insists on being a whiter shade of pale.

Nicole Kidman's White Obsession Poll

Why did the actress insist on wearing colorless dresses?

  • She's addicted to HBO's True Blood and is embracing vampire chic.
  • She's no longer human.
  • She wants to get cast in the Twilight sequel.
  • She didn't think she was pale enough.
  • She's hinting to Keith Urban that she wants to renew her nuptials.
  • She's just plain boring.

Amber Valetta

Is Amber Valletta dressing under the influence?

We don't know if Amber plans to get her groove on at a disco ball, or is going for a triple axel. This much we do know: The supermodel is skating on thin ice. Even if your unitard was designed by Stella McCartney like Amber's…Even if your legs go on for days…Heck, even if other stars pair their tuxedo jackets with sequined jumpsuits (weirdly enough, Juliette Lewis wore this very look earlier this week)…Don't do it! This is not a trend we want to catch on.

Garcelle Beauvais

I almost pre-ordered Nine West's strappy shoe-boot in September. But being a good recessionista, I decided to wait until it went on sale. This weekend, prices were slashed and I was prepared to finally purchase my bootie—then I saw it on my foot. It looked like someone had taken a hatchet and chopped five inches off my leg. I tried blaming it on my petite stature but the exact same shoe made Garcelle Beauvais' legs look stumpy at last night's Twilight premiere. And she's 5' 9!

If you still insist on getting the Yung bootie ($119 $109), Nine West is offering an extra 25% off sale items with free shipping on any purchase of $25 or more. But I recommend more flattering styles: The slit on the Lafitte ($119 $89.99) and Carillon ($155 $99.99) helps extend the length of the leg. Or, try my current obsession, the oxford. The Kimball ($89 $69.99) laces up to just below your ankle instead of cutting it off at the joint. Plus, the thicker heel complements a curvier leg.

Lisa Edelstein

At the 15th Annual Lint Roller Party, Lisa Edelstein, who plays Dr. Cuddy on House, dished on her prescription for happiness: beautiful designer gowns.

Mystyle Style Class: Couture

"You really do feel like a princess when you're in them," raves the actress, who's a fan of Pamella Roland and Reem Acra. "They're just so well-made and exquisite."

To make sure that her face is equally flawless, she uses makeup brand Clé de Peau Beauté. "I love all of their foundations and cover ups and eye shadows. They really have a beautiful array of makeup."

And to end the day, Lisa relaxes with her favorite beauty ritual:  "I steam makeup off my face with Shu Uemura's Cleansing Oil," she says. "It's fantastic!"
