What’s On Kate Bosworth’s Head?

We know that hats are usually part of traditional Derby Day outfits, but we are still a little confused by Kate Bosworth’s unusual headgear that she wore to the Victoria Derby Day in Melbourne, Australia over the weekend. We can’t help thinking that it looks an awful lot like something Cher would have worn in the 80′s, and it’s a little late for a Halloween costume. Tell us: What do you think of Kate Bosworth’s headpiece? Would you ever wear it?

Shop-N-Tell: Mike and Chris Leather Hoodie Jacket

Knee deep in some retail therapy at Ron Herman last week, I found the perfect item worthy of an investment — their exclusive Mike and Chris leather hoodie. Forget the traditional bomber, this chocolate leather hoodie is the perfect jacket to wear over a cute dress and boots for the winter. As soon as I spotted it, my mind immediately began racing with all the hot outfits it could complete. The saleswoman noticed me shamelessly drooling and told me that I was in good company. Angelina Jolie had worn the same brand jacket when she brought home Zahara, and Rachel Bilson didn’t take hers off at the Toronto Film Festival. If it is good enough for them, then it was definitely good enough for me. Now it just needs to get colder than 80 degrees in LA! — Amy Keith

Is This The New It-Pose?

Many stars have cultivated a favorite red carpet pose — Lindsey Lohan tends to blow kisses or give a peace sign, for example — but the newest pose seems more shared than signature. Emmy Rossum, Christina Aguilera, and Jessica Simpson have all been spotted kicking up a heel recently. Part cutesy, part 50-s pinup, part Rockettes, the pose is a definitely boon for shoemakers everywhere — check out the views of the girls’ glam heels! We think these stars look sweet and charming, but tell us: Do you get a kick out of this pose?

Argyle: It’s Hip to Be Square

While others in Hollywood may be wild for animal print or retro ’80s fashions, we caught Madonna patterning herself in…Great Scot, preppy argyle! The singer, in New York on a media tour, made an arresting figure jogging in a V-neck argyle sweater that matched her green sweats. But she isn’t the only star loving argyle: new mom Britney Spears cut a slender — and stylish — figure in a black-and-white diamond-patterned vest in her first outing after the birth of second son Jayden James. Even country star Tim McGraw recently ditched his cowboy threads for a bright orange argyle vest while hanging out in New York City. Tell us: What do you think of the argyle look? Is it cool to be preppy or should this look be put on ice? — Julia Wang
