There was a picture of Kelly Ripa in a blue Graham & Spencer dress going to the Late Show. Can you please tell me where I can find this dress? I absolutely love it and want to get it for a wedding I am attending.- Lori, Chicago, IL

We love to shop our fashion faceoffs, too — two stylish stars loving one dress must be onto something good! Case in point: Kelly Ripa wasn’t the only star who liked the shiny blue Graham & Spencer dress- Michelle Trachtenburg also sported the satin frock. Though the blue is no longer available (try LA boutique Traffic 323.969.1962 for a limited stock), you can get the black version at shopbop.com, $328. Too much for star style? Try this halter tube cascade dress in black or blue, $98, ardenb.com.

Target has released their newest designer-for-less collection (yay!) featuring top New York designer Patrick Robinson — but instead of urban chic, he’s created a island-worthy collection of neutrals and mosaic-inspired patterns. We’re loving this easy brown and white bikini top, $17, and boy-short bottom, $17 — pair with his medallion-printed tote, $30, for a stylish day at the beach. Or, snap up his eyelet shirtdress, $30, as a cover up or pair it with jeans for a great weekend look. Check out the whole Patrick Robinson collection on target.com by clicking here, and remember, new styles arrive every week!

The weather’s finally starting to warm up, and nothing conjures vivid images of summer like the smell of fresh lemonade or creamy coconut milk. The body care specialists at Philosophy have ingeniously concocted a way to bottle the scents as bubble baths. The aromas are so true-to-life that you’ll feel a tangy tartness on your tongue after just one whiff of the Old Fashioned Lemonade Bubble Bath, and you’ll have to resist the temptation to actually drink the Sweet Coconut Milk Bubble Bath — it smells that delicious. These two bubbly confections are truly summertime heaven in a bottle, any time of year. Buy them for $15 each at Philosophy.com.

We always dig Halle Berry’s style — especially the way she makes a casual ensemble (think tees, cargo pants, loose dresses) look so chic just by pairing it with a fabulous shoe or bag. So when we spotted the silver sandals she wore recently while running errands, we just had to find them. With a little online digging, we found out they’re Bernardo’s ” target=”_blank”>new Must sandal, $100, which also come in gold, black, and brown. They also have a padded sole and a distressed metal disc that takes it from a simple thong to a classy flat. For less expensive versions, try Urban Outfitter’s metallic sandal, $24, or Matisse’s Give sandal, $51 at zappos.com. Now, we just have to save up to buy her YSL metallic bag she’s carrying.

It looks like Lindsay Lohan is back to her old tricks — remember the star’s never-ending array of bikinis last summer? Lindsay hit the beaches of the Bahamas with new British beau Calum Best, and when they weren’t smooching, she was playing in the waves in some glamorous bikinis. She accessorized her black Lunazul two-piece with a straw Cha Chas fedora and a stack of bracelets, while she kept the extras to minimum with her teeny Pucci string bikini. Want suits like Lindsay’s? Click here to buy a Pucci bikini like her printed one on net-a-porter.com for $270. For her Lunazul “Beverly Hills”, $306, suit visit lunazulswimwear.com (or try this one, $25 from delias.com). Of course, if you don’t want to break the bank, you can get Kate Bosworth’s Gap bikini instead!
