What's New This Week at Life & Style? Couture in the City Fashion Blog

So what's new this week at Life & Style magazine? Check out their front page for all the greatest gossip on baby news (is Nicole pregs or not? I'm skeptical...). Anywho, the hottest trend this week amongst celebs has to be light and airy sun dresses. Whether they are short and sweet or superlong, this is THE staple for the season. I don't know about Gwen Stefani's school girl ensemble though...it's a little too dark and covered up for summer, don'tcha think?


Leave it to SJP to turn a simple pair of jeans and a t-shirt into a chic summer ensemble! The former Carrie Bradshaw just added a pair of yellow heels and a bright pink tote to her casual look and VOILA!...instant style. I'm so jealous. Life & Style shows you how you can add some effortless color to your summer look with these bright combos. Best of all, these trends won't break your bank (that yellow tunic from H&M only costs $25!!!)


I can't believe my eyes...flip flops are in style! Well, this isn't such a surprise really with the summer months upon us, but it's nice to see this casual look get many trendy makeovers. Whether you want a luxe pair to wear with a breezy sun dress or just a casual pair for the beach, Life & Style tells you where to get the best selling pairs this summer.


Who wears it best? Life & Style poses the question to you...and it's not an easy task. These four looks are super trendy and Life & Style readers choose their favorites, so now you can too! While I think that all of these celebs pulled these looks off way better than I ever could, some did it better than others...I simply love the BCBG dress worn by Shaun Robinson and Sophia Bush...so cute! Keep checking in with Life & Style magazine for all the latest and greatest information about your favorite celebs, fashion and more!

What's new this week at Life & Style? You can bet that they have pin pointed the hottest trends that your stars are rockin' this summer so you know what's in. It is my happy duty to report that nautical stripes are still on trend, but you don't have to limit yourself to navy blue. Vanessa Minillo was seen wearing a red and white striped tank with cut-off jean shorts and looks ready for the Fourth of July!

Okay, so you have a hundred pairs of dangly earrings and four or five pairs of sunglasses (white frames from last season, classic Jackie O's, avaitors, Wayfarers from this season) but maybe it has never dawned on you to make sure that your styles in eyewear and earwear match. Really, think about it...wayfarers with diamond drop earrings? I don't think so. Life & Style shows you how celebs perferctly balance their bling and their UV protection which staying trendy and chic.

Who got it right? Life & Style poses this question to show you just how versatile fashion really is. It always amazes me how two different celebs can put their own spin on a piece and make it look so different. This weeks' standout to me was the red peep toe shoe face off between the ex-Mrs. Manson, Dita Von Teese, and Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham. To me, red peep toe heels with an ankle strap are just more appropriate on a 1940's rockabilly burlesque dancer than a former pop star.

Sunscreen, towel, impressively intelligent beach read...check, check and check! If you are heading out to catch some rays this summer, then don't pass up the chance to get yourself a totally cute beach bag (and a cute cover up for that matter, for Pete's sake Kiki Dunst, get rid of the flannel and use a pareo!). For me, it's wicker and natural weave totes all the way...it's just so reminiscent of the islands. Check out Life & Style for more info on where to get the hottest selling bags.

The stars are coming out dressed to the nines to walk the red carpet at Cannes and Life & Style has picked the winners! Well, the most fashionable winners anyway...at Cannes, it seemed to be that a little bit of shimmer, a simple color and a great cut made for a fabulous frock. A standout among the crowd? Angelina Jolie's yellow Emauel Ungaro dress is so fresh for summer, and a great change for Jolie, who usually opts for darker colors.

Just when I was about to donate my denim skirt from a few years ago to charity...they're baaack. Like almost every style in the revolving door of fashion, jean skirts are constantly on again and off again. While most stars like Reese Witherspoon are saving their jean skirts for running errands and casual daywear, Alexis Bledel wore hers to a charity event. Jean skirts are fun and easy for summer and can be paired with almost anything...like maybe a striped tank?

If you have ever had the inner urge to be a Las Vegas showgirl, then now is the time to add a little piece of glitz to your wardrobe. While stars can get away with it on the red carpet, in real life a glitzy mini may not translate well. If you love the look but are hsitant, instead, try a cute glitzy clutch for evening.

What a fabulous week for gossip and fashion! And Life & Style has all the latest news that you are dying to read about. This week's cover features a newly svelte Tyra Banks...we love her no matter what her size, but find out her diet and workout secrets for a fab top model bod.

So many trends, but only seven days...Life & Style shows you what the stars have been wearing this week so you can be up on the latest trends yourself. While I am on the fence with Lauren Conrad's plaid frock (love the cut, but the print is a little too country bumpkin for my tastes), I am absolutely loving Kylie Minoque's shirt dress and Amanda Byne's Stuart Weitzman mini bag.


Life & Style has found the perfect sized bag for celebs and working girls on the go! YSL's Downtown Tote has a bucket shape and comes in a variety of colors that celebs just can't get enough of. With the perfect amount and size of pockets, it has room for your bottled water, your Blackberry, and whatever else you need without looking like a giant duffle bag. At almost $1,800, it's priced for a celebrity, but Life & Style tells you where to find lookalikes at working girl prices.


A pocket in a formal dress? Who knew? I am absolutely in love with Rosario Dawson's creme colored Diaphanous gown, but am still puzzled by the need for pockets in a red carpet gown. Oh well...I guess it's a good place to put your lipstick or credit card if you don't feel like carrying a bag.


They're baaack...wedges are hot again this summer, and we can totally see why. Providing all the oomph and twice the comfort of stilleto's, wedges are feminine and fun. With a flirty summer dress or a pair of jeans and a dressy top, wedges are the perfect way to accent your wardrobe. Check out Life & Style every week for up to the minute information on all your favorite stars and to see the latest trends and more!

What's New This Week at Life & Style?

Shiny and sexy, the hottest trend going in cocktail dresses is of the strapless variety. Bold colors and sweetheart necklines dominate this haute trend, but Liv Tyler shows them all how it's really done in a gorgeous two-toned asymmetrical style. Want to really punch it up? Add a unique piece of "statement jewelry" for extra sparkle.













Do they have the same stylist? Sometimes celebs seem to mirror each others looks, whether unwittingly or on purpose. However, some stars just know how to pull off certain styles better than others.

Personally, I think it's no contest with Gwen...she owns the safari look hands down.
