So by now anybody and everybody in the fahion world has heard about the disappointing reviews of the Spring 2010 Ungaro show...especially since the design house appointed Lindsay Lohan as artistic advisor.

The show only left me asking one thing: What do hot pinks and oranges, bandeau tops, white fur stoles, and sequin nipple covers have in common? As far as I'm concerned, absolutely nothing. Sorry Linsday, but maybe self-tanners really are your niche.

So what are your thoughts on Ungaro, Lindsay Lohan style? And if you weren't one of the lucky few invited to the show, review it at style.com and decide for yourself.

Fashion's Night Out Kick-Off with Anna Wintour and Michael Kors

Poll: Audrey Tautou or Nicole Kidman - who makes the better Chanel No. 5 girl?

With the release of the new Chanel No 5 film starring French actress Audrey Tautou (star of Amelie), one cannot help but compare her to the former star of the renowned film campaign, Nicole Kidman. While Kidman starred in a dreamy, Hollywood-actress-meets-handsome-starving-artist story to the tune of Debussy's Claire de Lune, Tautou stars in a more realistic yet nostalgic portrayal of the No 5 heroine on a train to Istanbul, doing a cinematic sort of lover's tango to Billie Holiday's "I'm a Fool to want you". Both versions have that Chanelian fantasy aspect that Coco and Karl have been so good at creating all these years, but it leaves me wondering, has an American done it better? Maybe Baz Luhrmann's directing did it for me, or maybe it was that pink dress. So what are your thoughts on style? Watch the videos, and cast your vote below:

Topshop Heartschallenger Van Gives Out Free Topshop Goody-bags

So as everyone who is anyone in the fashion scene here in NYC already knows, Topshop is opening in Soho tomorrow - Thursday, April 2nd, that is, on Broadway near Broome Street. Kate Moss is even going to be there to cut the ribbon, so get ready for a mob scene, unless you were one of the chosen few to get an invite to its soft opening yesterday or today, because I totally predict that it's going to be an all-out stampede. So once the dust settles, and Topshop has to start competing with the Zaras and H&M's of the city, which one will you come back to, to call your fast-fashion home? Cast your vote below!

Whitney Olivia

The stars of MTV's The City were destined for a faceoff - maybe it's just the classic east coast vs. west coast, but I sense upcoming drama between the two... In my opinion, who knows and who cares, I really just watch the show for the clothes and to get some tips on the swank bars/restaurants I want to try. So who looks better on the show? Whitney in her hipster getups, and that knit, flower-embellished headband cum earmuffs? Or Olivia in her picture-perfect curls, her gold Rolex and her Hermes bag? You decide. I appreciate comments....
