Sienna Miller’s Bloomers: Love It or Hate It?

Is this another case of Sienna Miller forgetting her pants, or is she stepping up to a major spring trend again? Uh, maybe it’s a little bit of both. After donning a vintage beaded dress for the NYC premiere of her new movie Factory Girl, the actress changed into a sweater and bloomers combo complete with opaque black tights and ankle boots. Now before we start wondering how many times she’s been watching Flashdance lately, bloomers and boyshorts ruled some of the hottest runways for spring — including Chanel and Prada — and will be all over fashion magazines in the next few months. But does that make it ok for a night of going out? Tell us: What do you think of Sienna’s outfit? Would you ever wear bloomers out?

Why Teri Hatcher and I Love Dermacia

It may not roll off the tongue like Creme de la Mer, but I was introduced to Dermacia foundation last week under the most dire skincare conditions at Sundance, and I can’t stop raving it. The foundation allows oxygen to reach your pores and prevents your skin from over-producing oil, but it feels like I have no makeup on whatsoever. Two people actually told me I have beautiful skin today! After years of carrying around camaflouge sticks and oil blotters, I think I have finally found the perfect foundation for my combination skin. We hear that Teri Hatcher and Rachel Hunter are fans too — you can snag it on the line’s website, for $48 a bottle. — Lisa Ingrassia

Would You Wear Gold Platforms Like Heather Graham’s?

Forget her short dress! How Heather Graham even managed to walk the length of the SAG red carpet in her sky-high Versace heels is still a mystery to us (maybe she took flats or slipped them off under the table?). The Bobby actress even joked about them in the pre-show, calling the super-high platforms “stripper shoes.” Hmm. Perhaps it’s okay to go over the top to an awards show, but we can’t imagine wearing them out for just a regular night on the town. Tell us: What do you think of these platform heels? Will you be wearing them?

If you love ‘em, we’ve rounded up a few styles that are pretty similar to Heather’s.

Marc by Marc Jacobs square buckle and T-strap satin lightweight platform sole, $345, nordstrom.com

BCBGirls Women’s Rinaldo Platform Slingback gold crisscross toe with buckle accents, $110,

Dr. Scholl’s Swivel platform peep-toe metallic slingback with cushioned footbed, $70, piperlime.com

What’s Jada Pinkett Smith Got On Under Her Dress?

Jada Pinkett Smith invariably looks so great on the red carpet, that we had to ask what her secret was. As husband Will Smith was being honored at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival on Saturday, Jad revealed to PEOPLE that she has two secret weapons: “I wear one of those elastic waist cinchers sometimes. You would not believe how small these dresses are! That and La Perla [lingerie]. Well, the La Perla’s not for the awards show, it’s for after. But that always helps to feel pretty underneath too. The other thing you have to make sure is that your skin is in good condition. There’s a lot of touching and kissing and hugging, so you have to be soft and smell good. I use Carol’s Daughter products. They are the best. They make your skin so soft, it’s like velvet and they smell great too, which is just as important.” If only getting arms like hers was as easy!

Amanda Peet’s Maternity Style

I’ve had a style crush on Amanda Peet for years — I love that she tries new shapes and styles, but it always seems like her own taste and not an attempt to be trendy. Assuming she wasn’t going to ditch her normal fashionable ways, I’ve been pretty curious about what the Studio 60 star has been wearing during her pregnancy. So she finally hit the red carpet of the Smoking Aces premiere, and I was thrilled! She looks great and is totally in step with major spring trends, from the rosettes on her winter white 3.1 Philip Lim coat to her sleek ponytail. Her kid is totally going to give Kingston a run for his best-dressed baby title. — Melissa Liebling-Goldberg.
