VIDEO: Scarlett Johansson Gets Sexy for Dolce & Gabbana

We’ve already seen Scarlett Johansson‘s lush ads for Dolce & Gabbana’s “Rose The One” fragrance, and now we get to see her sexy commercial for the Italian brand. In the clip, the sultry star sports a skimpy black strapless dress and heels while lounging at a kitchen table and peeling an orange. “It seems simple. Beauty is on the outside, but you might have to get what’s inside to get to what’s sweet. Beauty that’s in your mind — that’s the one,” she says, alluding to the fragrance “L’eau The One.” Buy your own “L’Eau The One” at neimanmarcus.com, $60 for 1.6 oz. –Kristin Larson

Victoria Beckham on Her Dream Client and Sharing Dresses With Madonna

Victoria Beckham’s eponymous fashion label silenced her critics when it launched last year and has since attracted a celebrity fan base to include Jennifer Lopez, Blake Lively and Elle Macpherson. But the singer-turned-designer admits there is one particular actress she would love to dress – Harry Potter star, Emma Watson. In the latest issue of British Harper’s Bazaar, Beckham describes the 19-year-old Watson as “so sweet, so true to herself,” adding: “There are so many young girls wearing too much make-up, too much hairspray – I find that very dated.” The ex-Spice Girl, who rarely uses a stylist, says she’s also a fan of Kate Bosworth, Charlize Theron and Angelina Jolie‘s style. “I think Angelina’s beautiful,” she said. But for now, she’s happy with her own little fashion victory – her own personal dress worn by Madonna in a raunchy W magazine shoot, which happened to be the moment Madge met Jesus Luz. “We must be the same size, because it fitted the same,” said Beckham who couldn’t have been happier to hand the garment over. “My dress has never seen so much action. I was really quite pleased for it.” Read more from Victoria Beckham at harpersbazaar.co.uk – Monique Jessen.

Alexa Chung Reveals Her Surprising Style Inspiration: Cybill Shepherd

Albert Michael/Startraks

Champagne, elegant canapes, celebrities — this was definitely not your typical Tuesday night shopping outing. Armani Exchange opened up their doors to fashionistas to preview their nightlife-inspired A/X Holiday Collection on Tuesday night. Alexa Chung, host of MTV’s It’s On With Alexa Chung, joined the store festivities to do a little shopping of her own. And the fashion It-girl, who was rocking a black boyfriend blazer, frilled white button-up shirt with a polka dot tie and cut-off shorts, told PEOPLE that she knows where to look for style inspiration. “I watch a lot of films, looking at someone like Francoise Hardy or those ’60s actresses, like Jane Birkin,” Chung explaned. “Cybill Shepherd in The Last Picture Show is amazing.” As Alexa strolled the store looking at clothes, she bobbed and sang along to indie hits — and revealed the top fashion muses she’d love to bring on her show. “I’d love to have Marianne Faithfull or Pamela Des Barres,” the talk-show host said. Questioned about whether or not her bosses would let Des Barres, the infamous rock and roll groupie, on her show, she replied, “God, I hope so!” Check out the collection for yourself at armaniexchange.com. –reporting by Jeremy Gordon
