We spotted Ashlee Simpson in sheer knee-highs paired with Converse sneakers last week, but we didn’t realize it was the beginning of a signature look for her! While in New York yesterday, the singer stepped out in two different pairs of stockings — knee-high with sneakers again while accompanying boyfriend Pete Wentz to a TRL taping, and then a pair of racy thigh-highs with her little black dress to Wentz’s birthday party at night. What do you think of Ashlee’s new look: Would you wear knee-highs and thigh-thighs like Ashlee? Do you like them on her?

If there is ever a moment for dramatic or over-the-top hair and makeup, a red carpet event is it. But at this week’s CFDA awards, stars turned up with natural makeup and soft easy hair. Uma Thurman, Kate Bosworth and Claire Danes all paired dewy skin with sheer, shiny gloss. A sweep of light metallic shadow and softly straightened hair finished off the look. Who says that you need a lot of makeup to look great?

I love the mirror-like shininess of a gloss, but I’m not a fan of the downsides that go along with it — like the sticky texture that attracts stray hairs like a magnet and sucks all the moisture out of my lips. But just wearing a matte lip-balm isn’t always the right look. Luckily, M.A.C has allowed me to have my proverbial cake and eat it too (it tastes deliciously like kiwis and strawberry) with their fantastic new hybrid glossy-balm, Tendertones. It protects and moisturizes lips with linoelic acid, lipids and SPF 12 but also leaves a slickly shiny finish. Pick up one of the nine flattering sheer shades at maccosmetics.com for $15. — Katie Dickens

Is Victoria Beckham ditching the idea of a reality show and heading for Broadway? We can’t figure out why else she would arrive to the 4th Annual Glamour Women of the Year Awards in London dressed like she’s appearing in Chicago! From her six inch YSL heels to her seamed stockings to her fingerless gloves to her, uh, lack of pants in her Roberto Cavalli corset topped one-piece and bolero jacket, Posh looks more suited to showing off her jazz hands than hitting a sedate awards ceremony. She’s not the first celebrity we’ve seen in bloomers, but this is taking the look to the extreme! Tell us: What do you think of Posh’s outfit?

Getting ready for her first baby with fiance François-Henri Pinault, Salma Hayek and her mother hit up LA baby store Bel Bambini on trendy Robertson Blvd. Shopping for less than an hour, the mother-daughter duo carefully picked out a few items while speaking their native Spanish. Among her purchases were three solid pink sleepers, a Born Out of Necessity vintage pink/black cherry diaper bag, a princess bedazzled pacifer and Alvin & Sparky Little and Big Elephant set. We can’t help but wonder what all this pink is signifying. . . guess we’ll have to wait a little bit longer to find out.
