Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, Pocahontas as played by Joan Collins:

I will say that Kate Moss certainly knows how to rock a good pair of Minnetonka front-lace boots in this photo. However, it still begs the question: “A fur coat? With moccasins? Why?” In what universe is this acceptable? The rich supermodel universe? Where all the streets are one giant catwalk, nobody gets out of bed for less than $10,000, and everyone sticks to a strict diet of cigarettes and laxatives?

You know Autumn is upon us when you see the sexy starlets traipsing around in knee-high boots. Example:

I would be lying if I said I didn’t have a soft spot for Christina Aguilera. Xtina’s electro-pop influenced performance at the 2008 MTV VMAs was one of my personal highlights. The girl can sing, and even though I’m not a huge fan of her hooker make-up, she generally looks super-hot.
Diva Xtina was spotted at a Rock the Vote event in LA the other night, and I love her go-go inspired look. I adore the simple black and white dress - reminiscent of the famous “Stupid Girl” dress once worn by Shirley Manson. The leather tall boots really complete the look. Xtina, like a true diva, is wearing Christian Louboutin’s “Ginerva” tall boot:

Everytime I see Miley Cyrus, she’s either wearing a pair of boots, or close to nothing at all.

This is Miley at the 2008 Teen Choice Awards, wearing a pair of slouchy, suede boots, similar to the Type Z “Clementina”. Despite the fact that these slouchy monstrosities create cankles on young Miley where there are none, it appears that the slouchy suede look is one of her faves:

The gladiator trend is exploding. Thus, it only makes sense for Tyra Banks to jump on board and whore it out just a little bit more:
This is the first promo shot for America’s Next Top Model cycle 11. Ty Ty went with a hippie-dippie flower child theme - some kind of high fashion production of Hair, only the blissed out stoners are replaced by catty gay men. It says “Feel the Love” on the top, but you just know Jay Manuel and Tyra want to claw eachother’s botoxed eyes out.

Here’s Alexis Bledel at the premiere for the Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants 2. Alexis looks very sleek and stylish in this ruffly one-shoulder dress. I would probably hate if it weren’t for the fact that this girl seems to actually make this unique style work.
Alexis paired her dress with a pair of strappy black heels by Alaia. I love the look of these heels. Just elaborate enough to compliment the dress, while still being reserved enough not to overwhelm her look.

There’s a fringe trend upon us. Behold:

Here’s LC out and about in a pair of blue, fringed-ankle sandals. I’m not opposed to the fringe trend; many designers have gotten it right, like the Betsey Johnson “Hipster” or many of the moccasin inspired boots from Minnetonka. However, LC’s sandals aren’t doing it for me. The Fug Girls have already expressed disdain at LC’s footwear choice, and made the valid point that walking around with these things on your ankles would be a bit irritating. I personally don’t think they’re flattering at all and I wouldn’t wear a shoe that looks like it needs to be combed.

Lindsay Lohan turned the big twenty-two yesterday. If you felt the Earth vibrate last night, it was probably the vibrational fallout from this party girl’s shindig. I was going to send her a present, but apparently they don’t let you send a cocaine and adderall in the mail.

Excuse me. I think you have a lightbulb stuck to your heel.
These beautiful suede pumps are from Spanish fashion house Loewe. I love the combination of a retro style pump with a quirky, lightbulb heel. Loewe creative director Stuart Vevers used the country of Spain itself as an inspiration for his new collection, with Salvador Dali-like surrealism as a stimuli for these unique and stylish heels. Vevers also created this fantastic screwdriver t-strap heel:

“Every career thing I do can’t be perfect.” How articulate of Miley.
Here’s Miley Cyrus on the cover of Billboard magazine. She looks so incredibly bubbly and cheery, bursting with toothy, animated joy - almost as if the Disney Corporation built a magic kingdom in her ass. I suppose it’s not so much that there’s actually a magic kingdom in her ass, and moreso that she herself is the great white stallion that Disney will ride until Hannah Montana goes the way of Lizzie McGuire.

The other day, I made a post about Sienna Miller, and complimented her outfit, despite my long-standing dislike of her ill-advised fashion choices. Well, it appears as though that moment was fleeting:

I do not like Sienna Miller. I personally feel that a chimp could dress better than her. That’s why I was so shocked when I came across this photo of Sienna with Keira Knightly promoting their new movie The Edge of Love.

Tim Gunn would approve
So which do we think is better? Charlize Theron’s beautiful, white Dior bubble dress, or Heidi Klum’s white Roland Mouret dress? They’re both very unique in style, but I love Heidi’s. She is looking like one classy bitch in this photo - classic retro beauty meets modern style. Klum gets top style points for this look.

Girl who’s bad acting cries like wind
Is there some new Pocahontas trend on which I’m missing out?

Lohan has no idea where she parked her car.
When you’re a celebrity, you can own every shoe in every colour of the rainbow. For example, in the above picture, Lindsay Lohan is wearing the Minnetonka Front Lace Hardsole boot in black. Previously, we had seen her frolicking about like a coked out Pocahontas in the tan version of this boot. I suppose she saves the black model for when she’s attempting the “car burglar Pocahontas” look.
