Who doesn’t love the classic comeback story of a major talent rediscovering the path to success after a few mis-steps (like Mariah Carey)? We were thrilled to see Whitney Houston out and on the arm of legendary music mogul and star-maker Clive Davis at the Carousel of Hope ball this weekend. From the caramel blonde bob to her glowing skin and sparkling style to her stunning black Armani gown, we don’t remember the last time we saw Whitney looking so divine (diva does mean goddess, after all). We have high hopes for the new Whitney and dare we say it, a hot new album? Tell us: what do you think of the new Whitney?

I have spent years lusting after Behnaz Sarafpour’s beautiful and elegant designs on Michelle Williams, Mandy Moore, and Amanda Peet. And I have also spent a good amount of time shopping the limited edition designer collections at Target, like Rafe and Paul & Joe. So, I am over the moon about Sarafpour’s new collection, officially debuting Nov. 1 (select pieces are already online). Who wouldn’t want her chic lace minidress (left), or her perfect-for-holiday-parties silk shell (right,) $25? And the accessories are fantastic too- don’t miss her too-cute NYC charm bracelet, $13, and brocade clutch, $17. My shopping cart runneth over! Rachel Bilson and Claire Danes have already snapped up the collection- what are you waiting for? — Melissa Liebling-Goldberg

Cameron Diaz has been spotted wearing something very shiny around town on her left hand ring finger, sparking rumors of an engagement with her singer/designer boyfriend, Justin Timberlake. But, Cameron’s sparkler is actually nothing new — she’s been seen wearing it quite a few times in the past. We did some investigating and tracked it down: It’s a three-band, three-colored-gold ring from Cartier that’s been in the jeweler’s collection since 1924. We’re not sure how long it’s been in Diaz’s jewelry box, but she does love to wear it. To get your own ring like Cameron’s, visit cartier.com and to get the look for less visit target.com.

Did you submit your guy into our Share Your Sexy Man contest — but don’t see him on our site? We’re working hard to get your photos ready for publication on People.com. We’re so amazed by the number of responses (thousands! You wouldn’t believe all that sexiness out there!) that we are working round the clock to get as many men up there as possible. New ones are being added every day. Keep checking back over the next few days! If your guy never appears, the photo you sent might have been too blurry, too small (it should be 400 x 400 pixels — meaning, a camera phone image might not be large enough) or didn’t come through. So, your guy might have been kept off by a technical problem, NOT that he isn’t hot enough! With all these guys to choose from, picking a winner with be tough! Make sure you log on and vote; then pass the link on to your friends!

Some men can pull off every look they go for. Whether completely casual in jeans and tees, or dressed up in suits and ties, they keep us wanting more. Brad Pitt is one of those guys. We can’t decide which way we like him better: Suited up to change the world or leathered up for a motorcycle ride through the city. Can you help us out? Tell us: How do you prefer Brad: Dressed up like a pro, or down like a biker bad boy? — Karen J. Quan
