Sandra Wins Most Sought-After Style

Feb 5, 2010 @ 5:30 pm

According to a report in the Wall Street Journal, Sandra Bullock has the most inspiring red carpet style. The gold Vivienne Westwood dress that the actress wore to this year’s People’s Choice Awards garnered the most click-throughs among all red carpet appearances on StyleSpot.com, a Web site that links red carpet photos to e-commerce sites. Bullock’s multiple award show nominations and appearances may have helped, but we think women relate most to her down-to-earth image. Kate Hudson and Drew Barrymore were among the other top stars that heavily influenced shoppers this year.

Wear a Cardigan Under Your Dress!

Feb 5, 2010 @ 1:00 am

Leave it to the First Lady to come up with an ingenious new layering tip! At the National Prayer Breakfast this morning, Michelle Obama wore an eggplant Narciso Rodriguez sheath (the very dress that sparked a national interest in her toned arms at last year’s Congressional address), but with a cardigan layered under it! The color of the sweater easily blended with the dress and her signature statement belt pulled the entire outfit together. We love it!
