Confused.com? Me too. Just when I thought I had the new way of wearing braids nailed — peek-a-boo plaits, in case you missed it — along comes a Gossip Girl and throws me off centre.
The term Silver Fox is normally used to depict the more distinguished man, but as there were some seriously foxy ladies sporting silver shadow at this year's Emmys, I thought you'd allow me a little play on words, non? Merci beaucoup. It's normally used in the inner V to make eyes appear bigger and brighter, but celebs including Toni Collette, Heidi Klum and January Jones were all wearing a wash of the metallic shade all-over their lids tonight.
Camilla Belle better find herself some bleach. Stat. Because once again, if the fashion bibles are to be believed, the no brow look is back.
After years of being mocked, cat ladies may have the last laugh — at least when it comes to the beauty world. Cutesy kitties popped up on Miu Miu's spring 2010 runway and now they're heading to your makeup bag. Paul & Joe have limited-edition cat-head lipsticks, while MAC's latest three-part colour collection, Fabulous Felines, is inspired by Burmese, Ocicat and Russian Blue cats.

At a press tour for Eat Pray Love last week, Julia Roberts accentuated her auburn hair with a wavy ponytail tossed to the side. Over the weekend, America Ferrera attended a screening of The Dry Land while sporting a sleek and shiny version.
You know me, I could talk about the merits of braiding until, well, forever really. 'Tis how much I love them. So I'm not really sure about a new trend that's emerging in Hollywood right now: the hidden braid aka The Peek-a-Boo Plait.
Naomi Watts set off a mini-furore with her new blunt haircut that she debuted last month. And if the looks on the runway are to be believed, they'll be one of the big hair trends for the upcoming season. But going blunt can be scary — especially if you have traumatic memories of one-length styles from the early '90s.
Just yesterday I was telling you about the new lip trend emerging, but it seems those Dolce & Gabbana boys aren't quite ready to let go of black just yet. It first hit our radar in the Fall 2008 RTW collections when Yves Saint Laurent sent models down the runway wearing YSL Beauté Pur Black Gloss — which was essentially latex for your lips. Noice.
