What Will You Be Wearing On New Year's Eve?

I love New Year's Eve because it's a great way to wrap up the holidays with a bang. These days, there are lots of options for the night, whether it's going to an ultra-glam black tie event, partying with friends in a ski lodge, or staying home to watch the ball drop on tv. So we want to know what you'll be wearing when the clock ticks midnight tonight! Will you be drinking champagne while wearing a little gold sequin dress? Or will you be keeping it low key with friends and family with a layered jumper? Maybe keeping it really low key at home with a comfortable nightie and cozy blanket?

Which Overpriced Kiddie Toy Is The Most Ridiculous?

Most parents these days will tell you that there isn't anything in the world they wouldn't do for their kids. Sometimes, these unconditional expressions enter the realm of gift-giving, and the high-end retailers know this better than anyone because I've seen more ridiculously overpriced children's gifts and toys this year than in any other. I don't even need to mention the current state of our economy to drive home my point that no child needs a crystal-encrusted piggy bank, a BMW Z4 Roadster, or a Swarovski tricycle, unless of course they're unnaturally motivated in their quest to appear on My Super Sweet Sixteen. I can't imagine a child even asking for one of these, but if they do, a word of advice- the Neiman Marcus Christmas Book? Not a bedtime story.

Chanel Iman Or Agyness Deyn: Which Model Mans Up To The Menswear Trend?

The popular look of menswear-inspired apparel for women dominated this season's collections with pantsuits, trousers, and double-breasted blazers and don't think it's over yet--you'll be seeing this androgynous look well into Spring too. At the Fifth Anniversary of the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund, models Chanel Iman and Agyness Deyn both sported menswear-inspired looks with tailored pantsuits paired with feminine accessories. Chanel showed her support for Obedient Sons And Daughters in a grey suit from their Fall 2008 collection paired with a black fur stole and suede pumps, while Agyness Deyn rocked a sleek black tuxedo suit with killer red Alejandro Ingelmo heels. We already know Alexander Wang won this year's CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund award, but who's the victor in this style showdown? Vote now!

Which Celeb's Red Lipstick Look Is Your Favorite?

Bold makeup is a great way to intensify your look if a bold outfit isn't your thing, and the best part is that a tissue solves all of your problems if you suddenly decide you took things too far. Can't really say that about the wacky shorts-tights-heels-oversized bow-adorned sweater ensemble I wore the other day, unfortunately. Moving on. Recently it seems that more than a few celebs are going bold in striking red shades of lipstick- Cameron Diaz at the AFI's Night At The Movies, Jennifer Lopez at the launch of her fragrance for men, "Deseo," and Dita Von Teese at her Wonderbra collection photocall, to name a few- and I want to know who you think did it best!

Web Gem: Designer Garments That Do Double Duty

We've all had the experience (or at least dread) of showing up to an event wearing the same outfit as someone else. For me it happened at the SF Ballet opening, the girl seated directly in front of me was wearing the same DVF dress that I had sought out specifically for the event! Lucky for me People Stylewatch wasn't there to document my mortification. However, lucky for you, People has a series of polls up asking you to judge just which star wore it best. Lucky for these stars, they don't seem to be at the same events, but let's be real, Hollywood is one big event! Who wore the Elizabeth and James blazer better?-- Rihanna or Karina Smirnoff? Click on over to make your vote on this poll and many more!
