The season's hottest trends and how to wear them.

rihanna: fierce feathers

Looks like RiRi is ready to ruffle some feathers! Dressed in a seafoam, feathered top with matching cropped pants, the singer launches her new fragrance Reb'l Fleur on Aug. 19 in London. Is Rihanna's daring look suited for a big star -- or just Big Bird?

Rihanna might look like a tropical bird, but you can fare better better, if you keep it simple.. 

Stick to basic colors like black and white when experimenting with feathers.. If you still are skeptical, then add feathers to your look with a bag or a pair of nice shoes.

demi lovato: showing off

Skyscraper singer Demi Lovato bares all in a revealing white halter dress with silver beading to the Do Something 

Awards on Aug. 14 in L.A. The 18-year-old singer certainly looks glamorous -- but is her grownup style a little too sexy?

It may be an old wives tale, but when you wear a low neck with cleavage on display, you should cover up your legs! So your either show your legs or cleavage, but not both at the same time..  And then of course, your neckline shoud be age and size appropriate!!

scarlett johansson: color scheme

A redheaded Scarlett Johansson attends Disney's D23 Expo in Anaheim, Calif., on Aug. 20 sporting a structured, fiery-orange shift dress. While Scarlett's look is definitely fresh and fun, we're kind of on citrus overload with the matching hair, dress and even the lip color. Orange you glad she didn't wear orange shoes, too?

Orange is one of the season's hottest colors. However it is never advisable to get too matchy-matchy! Add orange to your wardrobe now!

julianne moore: prim and proper

Actress Julianne Moore attends an event in N.Y.C. on Aug. 16 wearing a Mad Men-esque ensemble. With the giant, sheer bow adorning her long-sleeved, black dress, Moore could be mistaken for a conservative pilgrim. Luckily her sexy, leopard stilettos help liven up the look!

Pussy bows are probably the cutest things ever! However it does not mean you have to dress like a nun! Wear a bow with a dress, or a blouse or a shirt, wear it at your neck like a tie or at the shoulder, and wear it with style!

zoe saldana: metallic moment

Zoe Saldana attends the premiere of her newest flick Colombiana in Miami on Aug. 22 wearing a gold mini-dress with a plunging neckline. With her tiny figure, the gorgeous star can pull off anything. But we have to wonder: Would the look be even better if she ditched the flowing train?

Get your own gold dress, without all the unnecessary drama, cuz after all, wearing gold as a color is already a big enough statement, no need to emphasize it even more! And why stop at gold? Silver is just as hot!

kelly osbourne: bold move

Fashion Police panelist Kelly Osbourne may have committed her own fashion faux pas at the screening of God Bless Ozzy Osbourne in Hollywood on Aug. 22. Her graphic-printed mini and sparkling silver pumps sure spice up the red carpet. But perhaps Kelly should have opted for either the crazy print or the bold shoulders -- not both.

Following trends, is always nice, but the trends wearing you is a no-no.. Wear either a crazy graphic tee or a tunic or even a dress, but try not to play around with too many ongoing trends. Always make sure you balance out this trend with neutral accessories.

zooey deschanel: collar blind?

New Girl star Zooey Deschanel sports a dramatic, black-and-white dress to the L.A. premiere of Our Idiot Brother on Aug. 16. We love Zooey's whimsical style -- but these gigantic ruffles kind of make her look like she's clowning around.

Monochrome.. There is something that is just so cute and whimsical about black and white as a color combination. Both are such classic colors and together they us a vintage feel with a modern twist.

busy philipps: too busy?

Cougar Town actress Busy Philipps likes to mix things up -- literally! While attending the Hollywood premiere of 30 Minutes or Less on Aug. 8, she rocks a feather-printed skirt with a green patterned top. While they don't particularly go together, we're guessing that's the point. The risk-taking star pulls off the loud look with neutral accessories to tie it all together.

Another new 'in' thing is mixing prints.. But beware its really not for the faint hearted, one mistake and you may end up looking like grandma's couch and curtains.. Learn from basics. First start with polkas and stripes and gradually move on to animal prints and florals and the rest.

miranda kerr: lace time

New mom Miranda Kerr shows off her enviable post-baby body at the at David Jones Elizabeth Street Store on July 28 in Australia. Being a Victoria's Secret model, we understand her urge to bring the sex appeal. But with so much red lace, this looks more like naughty lingerie than an actual dress.

Lace, like animal prints, lie on the fine line between tacky and glam. If not worn well, it can look very cheap and very 'hooker-ish' which is definitely not what we aim for! So maybe limit the amount of lace, to one part of the dress, or even so, wear a dress completely of lace, but make sure to ask your mum, sister or close girl friends, for an honest opinion, cuz even the best of us make mistakes! If you cant pull off a lace dress, then stick to accessories.

zooey deschanel: frilly frock

New Girl star Zooey Deschanel rocks a black-and-white, one-shouldered cocktail dress for the Fox All Star Party on Aug. 5 in Malibu. While Zooey looks adorably sweet, she always seems to wear dresses that remind us of the prom! We think she could step it up a notch.

The one shouldered dress trend is one of my favorites, and you can hardly ever go wrong with it. Wear fun, flirty dresses  with soft drapes and ruffles and always make sure you balance it out well, for example, when you go for a ruffled sleeve/neckline, the bottom should be sleeker and more structured so you dont look too puffy..

rihanna: man's world

Rihanna definitely isn't afraid to show some leg! The singer seems to have forgotten her pants as she strolls through N.Y.C. on July 18. We're all for the menswear trend, but this button-down shirt kind of makes RiRi look like she's doing the walk of shame.

Wearing a shirt as a dress, is just so sexy, but it comes with a list of rules.. Like wear a bra! If its too short, wear shorts or tights or even leggings. Groom yourself well, you don't want that just out of bed look, ever! So you can borrow your dad's, boyfriend's or shop in the gents section, or just buy a nice over sized women's one.

jayma mays: short and sweet

It's not easy being green! Jayma Mays' bold, skin-baring mini (which she wears for the premiere of The Smurfs on July 24) is a far cry from the cardigans and pencil skirts she sports as Glee's conservative guidance counselor! But with the applique flowers and super-shiny material, her retro look seems better suited for a disco party than a red carpet.

The little colored dress is now as popular as the LBD and the LWD. Wear a cute colored dress for girl's night out, for a date or even to a club. Make sure its not too shiny, too retro, too short and it always should be age appropriate.

But that head-to-toe, snakeskin pattern is a whole lotta look -- especially on someone as petite as Kourtney. We do, however, love the loud color pop from her tangerine Birkin.

anna paquin: black beauty?

Anna Paquin usually knows how to rock an edgy dress, but this LBD (which she wore to the True Blood Season 4 premiere on June 21 in Hollywood) seems to have lost its way. The purple piping and sheer midriff (not to mention the visible under-boob!) takes the look from elegant to tacky.

LBD have been in for so long, that now wearing a lbd with mesh, or cut outs or feathers is considered very normal.

There's no hiding her baby bump in this eye-catching ensemble! A very pregnant Jessica Alba picks a custom Diane Von Furstenburg color-block creation for the CFDA Fashion Awards in N.Y.C. on June 6. The coral-and-purple maxi dress is certainly bright -- but is it beautiful?

When color blocking, one mus be very careful.  Alba looked radiant but were certainly something that was missing from her ensemble. If you are color blocking separates, then try and add a belt to make it look more solid.
