On Friday, we gave you a peek at Cavalli’s original sketch of Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony’s costumes for their tour that kicked off this weekend in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Didn’t make it to the concert? Here’s a look at all of J.Lo’s outfit changes. Cavalli and the couple had quietly been working on their wardrobe since July and we must say we are pretty impressed. J.Lo opens in a 1970’s inspired bright blue and green pair of bell bottoms and matching butterfly halter top. The singer then revisits her “Jenny From The Block” era in a hooded mini dress with bold silver plates, knee-high leather boots and long neck chains. Keeping the boots, she quickly changes into a J.Lo favorite style with a metallic gold muu muu-inspired dress by Issa (the star loves the cape so much she even wears it off the stage!). Finally, she closes the show in a sweeping floor-length yellow dress with a jeweled neckline. Notice lack of form-fitting attire — is that for easy movement on stage or is something else developing? Whatever the case, we love J.Lo’s glamorous and sometimes out-there signature style. Tell us: What do you think of Cavalli’s costumes for J.Lo? Which is your favorite?

If you are always on the go, carrying around a makeup case that is overflowing with brushes, bronzers and glosses is never fun–or helpful. With Dior’s Couture Pallette you can ditch all the excess and just bring one easy compact. The pallette includes gloss, all-over-face powder AND two small brushes for application that are strapped to the case–talk about compact! This limited edition palette features a pink, logo-printed case that is the perfect “going-out” accessory. Hitting Sak’s and Neiman Marcus makeup counters in October, 20% of its $50 value will be donated to the American Cancer Society, that is working to reduce the risks of breast cancer. Showing support never made you look so pretty!

For the past few weeks many photos have appeared of Angelina Jolie wearing tan flats. I love the look of these, but cannot seem to find anything that looks similar. Please help! – Kedra

The globe-trotting mother of four needs to keep her feet in something comfortable while shuffling around her brood. That’s why Angelina Jolie relies on Lanvin’s super comfy ballet flats — a shoe necessity among celebrities (Rachel Bilson also depends on her beloved Lanvins). Lanvin’s luxe flats don’t come cheap — $493 at Barney’s Stores — but the lack of blisters and ultra softness of the simple shoe are priceless. Not to mention, tan is a huge fall shoe trend, so we’ve gathered up a few of our favorites for way less! And if you love Angie’s Gerard Darel sweater bag (she has three different styles!) snag that, $399, at shoprumor.com

We’ve been on the hunt for a great patent bag and after spotting Lauren Conrad carrying Treesje’s new Asher Grande tote, $680, we think we’ve found it. It adds just the right polish to Lauren’s jeans, pull up Miss Sixty boots and soft jersey top — and we spotted Ashanti carrying it with a glam cocktail dress, and it looked just as good. What really sold it for us was the bag’s zipper detailing that’s so on trend. And they aren’t just for show, they’re real pockets. You also have a choice of carrying it with the braided handles like Lauren or the longer shoulder strap. Get yours at treesje.com, which offers free shipping on all orders. If you’d like more bang for your buck, try Perlina’s Large Crinkle Patent Tote, $275, or this patent tote, $28 at Avenue.
