Fab Ad: Marion Cotillard Returns as Lady Dior For Fall '09
Lady Dior's Spring '09 ad with Marion Cotillard was so successful, the French actress is back for Fall. But this time around, New York City, not Paris, is the setting. Photographer Annie Leibovitz shot the cinematic image of Marion as "Lady Red," the mirror suggesting a double life.

Carla Bruni-Sarkozy Goes Antianimal, Hermes Goes Pro
Carla Bruni-Sarkozy has the pick of the litter when it comes to wearing sumptuous designer creations but her selection might be a little more limited now that she's vowed to be more animal friendly. "I do not wear, buy, or own fur or animal skin other than leather or skin of animals raised for feeding purposes. I am not a vegetarian and I don't find it illogical to wear skins of animals whose meat is also eaten."
Marion Cotillard and John Galliano and the Mystery of Handbags

Fab Flash: The Lady Noire Affair, Featuring Marion Cotillard
Marion Cotillard is bringing her sultry je ne sais quoi to Dior in more ways than one. In addition to headlining its Lady Dior ad campaign, Cotillard has been chosen to star in the brand's mini movie, The Lady Noire Affair. “We wanted to capture the glamour, the intrigue, the heroine and the mysterious allure that radiates around her,” said John Galliano, Dior's creative director.
Trendtotting: Designer Diaper Bags
You may have gone from the walk of shame to doing stroller strides, but if you refuse to give up some of the luxuries you acquired as single woman there's always high end diaper bags. Used so frequently, it is easy to see why some ladies invest in a swank version that mimics their pre-baby handbags.

Love It or Hate It? Mischa Barton's Parisian Beauty Look
Yesterday in Paris, a very done up Mischa Barton attended the Christian Dior Spring/Summer 2009 Haute Couture Fashion Show. I was surprised to see her all glammed up in winged eyeliner, curls and a little bit of height at the crown of her head. Typically for fashion shows, her beauty look is more natural and laid back.
Celebrity Style Double Whammy: Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway
Today, we're mixing things up with a double whammy. Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway looked stellar together at the Bridewars photo call in Berlin. They're both wearing dark ensembles but are showing off very different styles.
I Love Your ShopStyle: A Vibrant New Year's Eve
You probably heard that I'll be spending NYE in Thailand this year — I can't wait! Since Thailand is tropical paradise, I've been looking for an ethnic-inspired outfit to ring in the New Year. jds223 must have heard my call for help.
Dior Mascara Is Certainly Iconic
The results are in and out 290 votes, 30% of you gave a thumbs up to Diorshow Iconic for best mascara of 2008. 23% of you voted for Sexy Curves by Rimmel, and 14% of you chose Benefit's BADgal Plum as your absolute favourite (I love how coloured mascara put up such a good fight)!
While I agree that Dior makes a fabulous product that lengthens, volumizes, adds shine and va-va-voom to your lashes, it also creates the exact opposite effect than what I strive for.
