Let this bitchin 80s inspired retro look heat up your wardrobe this winter.  Arm warmers are a must-have accessory this season.  They do double duty, keeping you warm while allowing you to show off your manicure.

Pick up a pair for $16.99 (was $24) at Urban Outfitters.  Colors like black or concord will keep your classmates or coworkers from asking to sign your cast.

I would love to be Lady Gaga for one day. Mainly because I love Halloween, but also to have the courage to let my freak flag fly by wearing clothes and other crazy contraptions for fun rather than for function. C’mon, you can love her or hate her but you know she’s having a ball.

Go gaga for these looks inspired by the Lady herself.

So, do you think Kim Kardashian has been influenced by sister Khloe’s anti-fur activism? Here’s hoping this jacket is a fake because it’s great looking.

Here’s how to get Kim’s chic all-black ensemble for a steal.

If you’re wondering whether Eva Longoria’s outfit comes in sizes other than “elfin,” the answer is yes.  (Seriously, how teeny is she? She should be living in a Malibu dream house and driving a plastic pink corvette.)

Taylor Swift knows how to shine

Sure, these dresses are cheap but you’ll look like a million bucks. They’re fun, flirty and sure to make you the life of the party this New Year’s Eve.

Too cold for bare legs? Stay warm by pairing any of these dresses with black opague tights (NOT sheer. Think sex pot, not streetwalker).

And to keep your look modern and sleek, toss on a shrunken tuxedo jacket instead of an outdated shawl or a bulky winter coat.

Cheers!

Fellow fashionistas:

Go Faux in 2010!

Follow the fashionable footsteps of celebs like Natalie Portman and Charlize Theron and ditch anything dead in your closet. Better yet, donate your fur items to your local women’s shelter where warm jackets and accessories are always needed. Your used furs will be put to good use without contributing to the industry.

Seriously, there are tons of fab cruelty-free alternatives that are equally as puffy, fluffy and fuzzy as the real thing so there’s no need to swaddle yourself in stinky skins. (Puffy, fluffy and fuzzy will thank you for it.)

Whew, it’s hard to stand on that soapbox while wearing heels…

The goods:

I’ll start one lucky reader off on the right track with this FREE faux fur hat that’s sure to become a staple of your winter wardrobe.

The rules:

WE HAVE A WINNER! Congrats, Melissa M. And thanks for going faux!

Good luck, ladies (and gents).

P.S. If you’d like to learn more about fur farms, click here. Beware, just like real fur, what you’ll see ain’t pretty, but it’s guaranteed to make you a more compassionate consumer.

Good night nurse, I’m holding my breath just looking at her.

Mariah Carey has some of the hardest working clothing in the business. Seriously, I think I can see her zipper sweating.

You know it takes at least three assistants to help her get out of those pants because there’s no way she’s able to shake (shake, shake, shake, shake) ‘em off herself.

Mariah, you’re the princess of pop. But you aren’t a size 2…and we LOVE you for that. Embrace your curves, woman! Celebrate them, don’t suffocate them in too-tight clothes that make you look like a stuffed sausage. It’s tough to be comfortable in your own skin, believe me – I get it. But let’s start with some comfortable clothes that are both flattering and age appropriate. She looks like she got stuck in a time warp.  In Newark.

Remember, Mariah – Forever 21 is a shop, not a mantra.
