Hilary Duff walked on the wild side in more ways than one at the Global Action gala in L.A. — in addition to her leopard gown, the star also debuted a new brunette hairstyle woven through with feathers. “They’re just like extensions!” she told PEOPLE, before presenting an award to honoree Miley Cyrus. “You can brush them, curl them, straighten them. I’m sure that I have a pink one somewhere!” No word on what hubby Mike Comrie thinks of the new avian-inspired do — he was away with his hockey team, the Pittsburgh Penguins, for their six-month anniversary and Valentine’s day! Duff expressed some jealousy of fellow hockey wife Carrie Underwood, whose husband just got traded to their hometown’s team: “I was like, ‘Mike, c’mon, I’ll take San Jose, the Kings, or anyplace closer than Pittsburgh!’ But to be fair, I do love Pittsburgh, and the team is really good!” Tell us: What do you think of Hilary’s new do? - Alex Apatoff, with reporting by Reagan Alexander

Hilary Duff Still Surprised by Her Husband’s Love of Clothes

When it came to settling into married life with Mike Comrie, there were no surprises for Hilary Duff–until it came to his closet. “I can’t believe how much he actually likes clothes!” the newlywed told PEOPLE Thursday night at Lucky‘s 7th annual Lucky Shops VIP event. “Right now we have two separate closets, and mine is significantly bigger than his, but he needs a lot of space too! He has a lot of suits and his jeans are huge.” And while she’s well aware of her athletic hubby’s size by now, the star still can’t get over how much larger his clothes are compared to hers. “I bought him a bunch of clothes for his birthday and I was like, ‘this is your size? It’s huge!’ But I don’t know. Maybe it’s because he has a big butt because he’s a hockey player.” One thing she isn’t look forward to? Consolidating their closets for an impending move. “It’s funny, now we’re moving into a smaller house and we’re going to have to downsize in a big way. It’s scary, I don’t know how I’m going to part with my things.” In the meantime, the two are planning their first holiday together as a married couple. “I think we might actually be alone for this Christmas, in Pittsburgh. I think his family is all going to be in L.A. and mine is too, so it’s definitely going to be new, but I’ll have to get back to you on what we do! It’s going to be scary [to plan], but exciting.” –Shruti Dhalwala

Hilary Duff Darkens Up Her Hair: Love It or Hate It?

INF

Just six weeks ago, when she tied the knot with Mike Comrie, Hilary Duff was still a dyed-and-true blonde; but the actress was all smiles yesterday in L.A. as she staked her claim as Hollywood’s newest brunette bombshell. Over the past few weeks we’ve watched the newlywed gradually go darker, even trying an ombré look that rivaled that of Hollywood trend-setters like Drew Barrymore and Lauren Conrad–but we weren’t sure if she’d go all the way with the darker look. And while stars like Katherine Heigl have taken the change of the seasons as a chance to lighten up, Hilary has committed to cozying down for fall by shedding her extra sunny look. Do you think Hilary should keep the brunette hair, or do you prefer her as a blonde?

Hilary Duff’s Dark Side: Love It or Hate It?

Ramey

It looks like marriage isn’t the only major change in Hilary Duff‘s life! The newlywed was snapped stepping out of a salon in Beverly Hills Thursday sporting a dark new do! Fresh off her honeymoon with NHL player Mike Comrie, the formerly bright blonde star showed off strawberry blonde locks, which complemented her dark vampy lips and rocker-chic tank top. And while the darker hue is a definite departure from her previously sunny shade, Hilary has never been shy about switching up her style, having rocked everything from baby-blonde to almost black. Tell us: Should Hilary keep the darker hair or lighten back up?

How Bride-to-Be Hilary Duff is Stepping Up Her Pre-Wedding Workouts

Sipa

Before getting hitched to NHL player Mike Comrie, bride-to-be Hilary Duff is leaning on trainer-to-the-stars Harley Pasternak to help get her in top wedding form. With other svelte A-listers like newlywed Megan Fox and soon-to-be married Jennifer Hudson on his client list, the author of The 5-Factor World Diet clearly knows what it takes to get women in gown-ready shape. “The key is to have amazing shoulders, amazing arms, posture is really important,” Pasternak tells PEOPLE. “But it’s also important to have a really tight midsection, because the way a wedding dress hugs your midsection, you really want it lean and tight.” So how is he upping the ante on Hilary’s usual gym regimen to get her ready for the big day? “Instead of a five-minute cardio warm-up and a five-minute cardio cool-down, maybe we extend those cardio phases to 15 minutes before and after our workout,” says Pasternak. And Hilary’s pre-wedding routine isn’t just about fitness—diet is also key. Each fuel-charged day consists of five meals: a breakfast burrito, mid-morning snack (berry smoothie), lunch (chopped salad), afternoon snack (apple cinnamon oatmeal cookie) and dinner (“she loves Japanese food”). We all know keeping fit is de rigueur in Hollywood, so how is the former tween queen responding to the stringent workouts? “I think she vocally disliked them all!” says Pasternak. But no hard work goes unnoticed. “She looks toned and tight… I’m really proud of her, she looks fantastic.” –Hana Choi; reporting by Thailan Pham

Who among us is immune to the siren call of online shopping? Not Hilary Duff. “I’m so addicted I almost don’t leave my house anymore,” jokes the actress-singer in this month’s Lucky. The May cover girl even reveals where she spends much of her time clicking around, saying, “My absolute favorite place to shop is Net-A-Porter. There are so many beautiful, irresistible things.” Clearly a seasoned shopper, the petite, five-foot-two star seems to know exactly what she’s looking for on her virtual sprees, calling out a pair of sky-high platform wedges, noting that they’re both “comfortable and make me very tall–two things I always want in my shoes.” Among her other favorites: “Sequined shorts are at the top of my list to buy for spring,” as well as “a big, voluminous scarf. It’s a total weakness of mine.” But her favorite accessory of all? Says Duff, who’s newly engaged to NHL hockey player Mike Comrie, “My fiancé just bought me this ring with smoky pavé diamonds. It’s so cool.” To read more from Hilary, visit luckymag.com or pick up a copy on newsstands now.

Recently engaged star Hilary Duff, who’ll tie the knot with hockey beau, Mike Comrie, seems to change her aesthetic whenever a new phase in her life begins.

Fast-forward to 2006, when the newly single star opted for body-conscious designer gowns in brights and metallics, putting a fresh spin on her red carpet look before adding her hottest accessory yet in 2008–handsome Mike Comrie. With her bachelorette days coming to a close, we’re looking forward to checking out Duff’s sartorial response to being called “Mrs.”–David Yi
