Angelina Jolie Gets Seriously Sexy at Cannes!

Angelina Jolie has dominated the red carpet at Cannes over the past few years, from her bright citron Emanuel Ungaro gown to her green Max Azria maternity gown last year, and 2009 is shaping up to be no exception. The star joined her partner Brad Pitt for the premiere of his new film “Inglourious Basterds” in a super-sexy draped Versace Atelier gown in a tea rose color. But what really caught our eye is the thigh-high slit on her gown, exposing pretty much all of her perfectly toned right leg. We love her whole look from the loose curls and red lips to the sexy gown and matching pumps, but we want to know what you think! Vote on her sexy look below.

For this year’s Gap Design Edition collection, the retailer has teamed with CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winners Albertus Swanepoel, Alexander Wang, and Vena Cava’s Lisa Mayock and Sophie Buhai. Instead of the plain white shirt, designers got the chance to revamp another Gap classic– the khaki! The resulting collection offers a variety of khaki pieces ranging from jackets to dresses to hats. Each piece reflects the designers’ creative visions while still retaining Gap’s classic, yet casual, aesthetic. Albertis Swanepoel, Alexander Wang and Vena Cava’s Lisa Mayock and Sophia Buhai join other CFDA winners who have collaborated with Gap including Doo-Ri Chung, Kate and Laura Mulleavy of Rodarte, Thakoon Panichgul Thakoon, Phillip Lim and Scott Sternberg of Band of Outsiders. This year’s Gap Design Edition collection will hit select Gap stores and online June 16 with prices ranging from $40 to $88. We can’t wait to get our hands on it. Tell us: What do you think of Gap’s designer Khaki collection?

90210 heartthrob Adam Gregory is stepping off the posh high school campus and playing the role of sexy coed in a series of new images for Company 81. The 90210 star was a natural pick for the mens sportswear company. Adam wears Company 81 onscreen as rich kid Ty Collins and off-screen to Hollywood bashes. “I love the clothes…the look, the feel,” Adam says. “I’ve been wearing Company 81 since I got to Hollywood. The clothes fit my style and lifestyle, so it made sense for me to team up with this hot new line.” We think Adam’s all-American look is a great fit for the casual clothing line. Check out the line at company81.com.

From her collection of outrageous shoes to her bevy of designer bags, Beyonce clearly loves fashion — but don’t call her obsessed just yet. “I don’t know if I’m fashion obsessed,” she tells Britain’s Mirror. The singer, who also helps mom Tina Knowles design their House of Dereon collection, gets a bit more fashion conscious while working, but for her day-to-day life, she goes casual. “When I’m at home I usually wear the same thing every day. I have my straight-leg jeans and a pair of Christian Louboutins and a little jacket and a white shirt,” says Beyonce. And what about all those “it” bags? “I get sent about 15 designer bags a month. I can only imagine how much they cost. Even I wouldn’t buy some of them,” she admits. Lucky girl! Check out the rest of the interview at mirror.co.uk where Beyonce dishes on her workout regime, meeting the Obamas and more.
