Images from Reese Witherspoon‘s latest film, This Means War, have trickled in, and we’ve been dying to know what designers are behind the looks. Today, our prayers have been answered and—ta da!—we can bring you all the info! From left, her bandage dress is by Herve Leger, her clutch is from Stella McCartney and her peep-toe pumps are Christian Louboutin. Next, her exquisite red bag is by Chloe. The blue ruffled dress is from Anlo and her red heels are, again, by Louboutin. And at the far right, the gorgeous white lace dress is Stella McCartney. The McG-directed movie is not out until next year, but we’re going to cop Reese’s polished, feminine style a whole lot sooner.

Zoe Saldana Dreams of Designing with Prabal Gurung

Oct 18, 2010 @ 3:40 pm

Dear Zoe Saldana, can we please swap closets? Seriously, whenever we see pictures of the actress, we can’t help but need whatever she’s got on. Now, in an interview with MyFDB.com, Saldana opens up about her style, sharing her love of “dramatic” designers like Lacroix, Alaia and Givenchy and the “clean lines” of Calvin Klein. But she also has a soft spot for fledgling designers just starting out: “My advice for them is to never lose their vision. Our personal interpretation of art is what defines us and distinguishes us from each other,” she says in the interview. One relatively new designer that’s already made a huge impact in the fashion world and on the actress is Prabal Gurung. She notes, “Prabal Gurung has been a very good friend for many years. I am in awe of the way he has carried himself and his designs recently. It would be amazing to collaborate with him.” Fingers crossed for this to happen stat! Check out the complete interview here.

It’s week five of Dancing With The Stars and reality star Audrina Patridge has held on as one of the eight remaining contestants. While her svelte figure looks like it was made for the show’s revealing costumes, she had to work hard to increase her flexibility, stamina and strength six weeks before rehearsals began with Bodyline Pilates instructor Maria Leone. “We worked out for an hour, 2-3 times per week until rehearsals became all-encompassing, and now we try to fit it in whenever she can,” says Leone, who also works with celebrities like Kate Bosworth. “For all the exercise Audrina has done in the past, very little focus was placed on flexibility. The ability to lift your leg high or perform the splits looks great when you are on stage, so we spent a lot of time increasing hamstring flexibility and strengthening her core to support a strong dance posture.” Try Audrina’s core and flexibility exercises at home (after the jump) and tune into tonight at 8 p.m. EST on ABC to watch her and partner Tony Dovolani perform the rumba!

Lauren Conrad’s Fall Must-Haves

Oct 18, 2010 @ 12:58 pm

Busy reality TV star-author-designer Lauren Conrad has yet another title to fit onto her resume: guest fashion editor. The blond beauty played the role for WhoWhatWear.com, picking key pieces that suit her “classic with a twist” style. She is currently loving really feminine dresses like this Paul & Joe version and clean minimalism as seen on Stella McCartney‘s runway. When it comes to accessories, Conrad gravitates to Dior shades explaining, “These cat-eye sunglasses have a retro feel, but still look modern.” Plus, she can’t get enough of Christian Louboutins (who can?), especially in sweet brown suede.
