Okay, I love Kristen Wiig and I love Prada. But for some reason together I do not like - at least in this case. I really hate when a major designer I respect and usually adore comes out with a piece like this. What is that?! There is so much happening that I don't even know where to look first but I do know that it is bad.

I had to finish out the week with one of my most favorite looks. Leslie Mann rocked a casual but chic white Viktor & Rolf jumpsuit with a Saint Laurent coat in the London premiere of Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues. We all know I live for jumpsuits, and just yesterday I talked (again) about my love for winter white. And here, Mann combined them as if it was a no-brainer. But guess what, I hadn't thought of a white jumpsuit!

Every time I see Khloe Kardashian she looks better and better. I thought she had really hit her stride last year as co-host on The X-Factor where week after week she was nailing it with fashion. I happily stand corrected. Kardashian stepped out yesterday for The Hollywood Reporter Women in Entertainment Breakfast wearing an A.L.C. white mini-dress that flaunted her curves and super long legs. I could not love this look more if you payed me - everything about it is spot on.

Ahhhh it's Lady Mary!!! I mean, Michelle Dockery. Sorry, I forgot for a second there that Downton Abbey is not real (but whhhyyy!). Dockery has a lot to live up to in real life as she plays one of the most sought after and glamorous characters of the show. Lucky for us, she never ever disappoints when it comes to her real life fashion. This week's New York City cast photo call for season 4 is a perfect example!

The Alice + Olivia sample sale started today at 260 Fifth Avenue and unlike the last sale, it is only happening at the one location instead of two. This means the huge space is filled with racks upon racks of dresses, pants, coats, fur vests - everything from the fall/winter collection and more at up to 70% off. The only thing missing from this sale are shoes and handbags. There are some gloves and small accessories, like adorable pins at the register for $12.

I love watching a fashionista in the making. Meet Bailee Madison. You may know her from the new series Trophy Wife, as the young Snow White on Once Upon a Time or the thousand of the other things she's been in because this girl has quite the resume for her young age. Like so many of her peers, Madison is already mastering the art of fashion. She knows how to dress age appropriately but with style and a bit of adventure.

I am loving this Randi Rahm dress on Elisabeth Rohm. Rohm wore the stunning emerald green gown to the New York film premiere of American Hustle. I always love a high neck gown with a low-back - it's a silhouette that never fails to look chic and sexy. But the bold green is a great twist on the look plus I love Rohm's glamorous hair and drop David Yurman earrings.

OMG - how amazing does Kim Kardashian look in this white lace applique dress by Proenza Schouler? I am going to put it out there and say this is her best look to date by far. Everything about this is oh-so-right from the fit, to the color, to the styling, to the perfect balance of elegant meets sexy. I know she had it rough there for a while during her pregnancy but man is Kim having the last laugh now.

In the spirit of yesterday's post where I featured Keira Knightley wearing a Chanel dress that she - gasp - has worn three times already, I am featuring Catherine Duchess of Cambridge in a Roland Mouret gown she wore last year. Once again Princess Kate proves she's a modern girl who recycles her clothes just like everyone else. And why not? With a gorgeous dress like this one, she should wear it again and again. The trick is to style it differently every time.

There is nothing I love more than a pretty party dress except maybe a pretty party dress by Chanel! Keira Knightley wore the most beautiful, delicate, girly Chanel dress to the SeriousFun Children's Network Gala in London and I can't help but smile when I see it. But I can't help but think I have seen this dress before on Keira Knightley. Turns out, the British actress is following Princess Kate's example and is repurposing dresses. But this isn't just any dress. This Chanel dress is the same dress Knightley wore to marry her husband James Righton!

I checked out the Parker sample sale today before the lunch time rush. It wasn't crazy crowded but there were a good amount of women combing through the racks.

Gwyneth Paltrow is taking over! She's everywhere - film, food, fashion, lifestyle. Her new web series with pal Tracy Anderson debuted their trailer today and her lifestyle website goop.com is thriving. I then saw Paltrow looking as beautiful as ever at The British Fashion Awards. How she has time for everything I will never know. In the meantime, I will just 'oo' and 'ahh' at her amazing outfit.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley made quite an impact at the British Fashion Awards in London wearing a red suit by Antonio Beradi. It's not my taste but I can totally appreciate the artistry and I think she looks amazing. And one thing's for sure, you cannot miss this outfit - she definitely makes a statement!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and are already taking advantage of the amazing Black Friday sales. What better way to take a break from all the shopping than a quick glance at what Catherine Duchess of Cambridge wore last night at Sportsaid 2013 in London last night. Yes, that's right, while we were all stuffing our faces with turkey, stuffing and pumpkin pie, The Duchess was out and about looking amazing as always.

It's been a while since I featured one of my favorite fashion girl crushes, Diane Kruger. JustJared has a series of shots of Kruger and boyfriend Joshua Jackson (Pacey!) arriving home from their vacation in Cabo. And seeing as it it's a huge travel weekend, I figured I would feature the beautiful Kruger and her travel style.

Oh Emma Roberts - you are so adorable and pretty and have everything going for you, including your aunt's (Julia Roberts) winning smile. But I have to say I am a little on the fence about this Lanvin dress, leaning towards good, but kind of eh. I adore Lanvin and all the label's chicness. And, it should also be said, that I am all for comfort at long events, but comfort doesn't necessarily mean being lazy.

Cool girl Louise Roe pulled off what I would think is an impossible outfit and not only made it look great, she made me want it! If I was shopping and saw this MiH denim jumpsuit I would probably run in the other direction. I wouldn't know how to wear it, when to wear it or why to wear it. There is so much denim and zippers happening that in the wrong hands it could be a fashion disaster waiting to happen. But not for Roe.

One thing I love about music awards shows is that anything goes when it comes to fashion. It makes the red carpet arrivals really exciting because you will see everything from gowns to barely-there ensembles, and everything in between. Last night's American Music Awards was no exception and when it came to pick my favorite of the night, I couldn't pick just one. So I didn't!

I had to finish out the week with a picture from the New York screening of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. I am so excited that the movie has finally opened! After so much press - and so much fashion it's about time. Jena Malone opted for a chic vinatge look by Valentino with a rocker twist. Not many women could pull off the delicate balance between sweet and edgy, feminine and tough. But Malone succeeded with flying colors.

Navy never looked so good! The Duchess stepped out this week in the name of charity. She attended an education forum run by the children's mental health charity Place2Be in the Canary Wharf area of London. Bonita Refson, the chief executive of Place2Be, said that the duchess' visit was “a huge honor.” “We truly value her shared passion and commitment to supporting children's mental health,” said Refson.
