What Are Your Style Resolutions for 2007?

We can only hope that getting rid of head scarves and oversize glasses are somewhere on Lindsay Lohan’s list of New Year’s resolutions (ditto to you, Nicole Richie). There are plenty of trends that we are more than happy to leave behind in 2006 — buh-bye, skulls –, and some that have the legs to take us into 2007 and beyond, like our beloved ballet flats. In the New Year, we resolve to keep open minds and try new looks that we aren’t sure about on the hanger. We also vow not to shell out big bucks for things just because they are trendy and, of course, to finally organize our closets! But tell us: What are your style resolutions for the New Year? What resolutions do you wish stars would make?

Check out all the trends worth keeping — and losing — in our special Top 5 Gallery.

Would You Wear Stilettos on Ice? J. Lo Does!

File under amazing feats of fashion: First Mariah Carey did it, and now Jennifer Lopez is wearing stilettos while walking on ice in Aspen. The fashionista left her snow boots at home — no fuzzy boots for J.Lo? — and headed out on into the wintry streets in her mega-heel YSL platform boots. Unless the ice in Aspen has a special no-slip quality that we don’t know about or Jennifer’s dance training gives her a super-human balancing ability, we think she should pick up some shoes with better traction! Tell us: Do you dare to wear heels on ice? What’s your winter footwear standby?

Wow! Paris Hilton’s Got a $2250 Beach Bag.

Paris Hilton has never been one to shy away from a logo — her wardrobe of Chanel purses come to mind — but this week, she has outdone herself. While hanging out on famed Bondi Beach in Australia, Paris not only donned a signature-print Louis Vuitton string bikini but also carrying one of the brand’s logo-laden bags (as did BFF Kim Kardashian). The Monogram Miroir Alma bag is actually the Louis Vuitton “it” bag of the season, selling out everywhere in America in spite of its whopping $2250 price tag. We can’t imagine carrying anything that expensive, much less to the beach! Tell us: Would you carry a $2250 purse to the beach? Would you wear that bag at all?

What Will Angelina Jolie Be Wearing on New Year’s Eve?

When Angelina Jolie ushers in the New Year (presumably at one of the world’s exotic hot spots), she could well be wearing a Karanina convertible halter dress (on sale now for $173 from $345 on Girlshop.com). We hear that she recently scooped up three of them — including a reversible black and champagne version. This multi-tasking silk jersey dress has a extra-long halter tie that allows you to wear it in at least five ways — ten ways if you buy the reversible one! Fashionista translation: you can don the same dress to a few of your holiday parties and look a little different each time. No wonder celebs such as Scarlett Johannson, Jennifer Aniston and Jessica Simpson also keep this handy little number in their closets. Now the only question is: What are you wearing on New Year’s Eve?
