        Like it or not, celebs frequently set the trends (or more accurately perhaps, their stylists do). This year there were a few big influences, but I'd have to point to Katie Holmes as one the biggest -- and weirdly, the quietest -- trend-setters of the year (remember the bob haircut, the rolled jeans?). But that's just what was on my radar -- who do you think was the biggest celeb style setter of 2008?

        Or do you even care? Actually, I think Jordin Sparks is great, but we're so over the celeb "designed" lines. Still, here's more on this one (at <a href="http://offtherack.peoplestylewatch.com/2008/11/21/jordin-sparks-designs-a-holiday-dress-line-for-wet-seal/">People.com</a>) which is at least budget friendly . . . While we're on the subject, how do you feel about Wet Seal?

        Okay, there's really no actual point to taking this, but who says that's a bad thing? Seriously, these days we can use a few minutes of fun distraction -- take the quiz at <a href="http://www.hollywood.com/content/feature_detail.aspx?id=5345021">Hollywood.com </a> and let us know how you did . . . (honestly, we didn't do so hot!)

        I have been a Mary-Kate and Ashley Fan ever since they shared the role of Michelle Tanner on Full House... They just released a book called, Influence and I just bought it yesterday. I have only had a chance to flip through it but it is like a huge scrapbook of their life complete with interview transcripts, personal pictures and letters. It truly is an amazing book and I can't wait to read it! <br />
<br />
Here's a taste of the book if you're interested...<br />

        Someone has voted Elizabeth Hurley's "safety pin" dress (a Versace from 1994, natch) the best of all time (according to <a href="http://offtherack.peoplestylewatch.com/2008/10/10/elizabeth-hurleys-safety-pin-dress-voted-the-greatest-of-all-time/">People magazine</a>). It was pretty memorable, but I'm not sure it earns that title . . . so what's your fave/most memorable celeb dress/look of all time?

        Looking over the Emmy coverage this a.m., it's interesting to see that there wasn't much in the way of holding back -- lots of bright color, metallics, and dramatic gown designs. Some hit the mark, others were a little off -- personally, I loved <a href="http://www.people.com/people/package/gallery/0,,20225335_20227776_4,00.html">Christina Applegates glam retro gown</a>; <a href="http://www.people.com/people/package/gallery/0,,20225335_20227776_19,00.html">Olivia Wilde's pleated gown</a>, and <a href="http://www.people.com/people/package/gallery/0,,20225335_20227776_9,00.html">Hayden Panettiere's Badgley Mischka gown.</a><br />
<br />
The misses? In my opinion, <a href="http://www.people.com/people/package/gallery/0,,20225335_20227776_5,00.html">Eva Longoria Parker looked overdone with this huge bow detail</a> and <a href="http://tv.yahoo.com/the-60th-annual-primetime-emmy-awards/show/43034/photos/emmy_awardsnight/worst-dressed/341">Kathy Griffin's gown looked like a curtain </a>(including the heavy poorly sewn hem . . . ).<br />
<br />
Anyone else strike you? Did you even bother to watch (or look at coverage this morning?) Or does award-show fashion leave you flat altogether?

      <title>Gossip Girl Headbands&#8212;a Yea or a Nay&#63;</title>

        Sure, it's geared towards the younger set, but Gossip Girl is making headbands a trend this season (or so I'm told). The thing I like is that, for those of the age and inclincation, you can get the trend super cheap with headbands from Goody (check out their Glamarama and Iconoclass collections) and the look (with pretty colors and fabrics rather than neon plastic) is a step up from the 10-year-old version.<br />
<br />
But what do you think? Is this trend a yea or a nay? Do you ever wear headbands?<br />
<br />
