With the Oscars a mere two days away, we’ve got red carpet attire on the brain. And if star style continues as it has been for the past week, we’ll be seeing be lots of stiff hairstyles — and possibly a few midriff sightings! — on Hollywood’s biggest night. And surprisingly, we’re betting to see fewer nude dresses than ever before. Here’s why:

Up: Slicked-Back Hair. Have certain stars been borrowing their boyfriends’ hair gel? Anna Paquin, Emmy Rossum and Jennifer Lawrence all have sported severe, almost wet-looking hairdos, a major departure from the soft waves that ordinarily dominate the red carpet.

It’s been 15 years since the first Scream film hit theaters, delighting audiences with thrills and chills. And while the cast members have come and gone — some in an untimely manner on screen — Scream 4 seems to be the most star-packed of the series yet. Last night, the sure-to-be-frightening film premiered in Los Angeles at the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, drawing a whole roster of celebs. But the ladies who really stood out were original stars Courteney Cox and Neve Campbell (in Vivienne Westwood), plus newcomers Kristen Bell (in Vanessa Bruno), Hayden Panettiere (in Zac Posen), Anna Paquin (in Cushnie et Ochs) and Emma Roberts (in Burberry). We loved all of their pretty dresses, but we want to know what you think. Tell us: Who gets your vote for best-dressed Scream 4 star?

Anna Paquin's Naughty Nocturnal Activity: Online Shopping!

Anna Paquin‘s True Blood alter-ego may have to worry about fangs coming out at night, but it turns out in real life, it’s her laptop that magically appears after midnight! The self-confessed “shamefully” big online shopper took a little bit of loving ribbing from her husband (and co-star) Stephen Moyer at the boutiques.com launch in N.Y.C. on Wednesday night. “If I wake up in the middle of the night, and I’ll kind of feel the light and I’ll open my eyes and it’ll just be the glow of the computer, and she’s even shopping in her sleep!” said Moyer. “She loves it.” Paquin defends herself, explaining “I don’t always buy, I’m almost more of a window shopper!” Turns out that Paquin isn’t the only fan of surfing the web for fashion as fashionistas like Carey Mulligan, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz created their own fave picks for the new Google.com shopping site. So what does Mulligan pick out to shop for in her boutique? “It’s just stuff that I wear. There are two things that I have — I have nights like tonight where I wear very high heels, and nice dresses, and then my normal life where I’m pretty casual,” Mulligan told PEOPLE. “It’s Rag and Bone and Elizabeth and James when I’m off duty, and then all my very fancy clothes like Prada!” See more at boutiques.com.–Shruti Dhalwala

Which Alexander McQueen Dress Do You Like Better on Anna Paquin?

Why limit yourself to one fabulous Alexander McQueen dress when you can wear two? That seemed to be Anna Paquin‘s fashion philosophy at last night’s Emmy Awards, where the stylish star treated us to two different black dresses from the late designer, who died on February 11. To walk the red carpet, the newlywed and True Blood vixen stepped out in a black satin Alexander McQueen gown, embellished with sparkling gold epaulette-style shoulders that she accented with a stack of vintage House of Lavande bracelets. Only hours later, Paquin reappeared at HBO’s Post-Emmy party in a black wool dress from the designer’s Pre-Fall 2010 collection, which she paired with a Red Union Jack Skull clutch–also from McQueen.  We love a mid-evening wardrobe change, but with two elegant Alexander McQueen dresses, it’s tough to decide which look we liked better on Anna. Tell us: Which of Anna Paquin’s Emmy-night looks do you prefer? Vote! –Jessie Goldberg
