Hollywood’s A-list can’t seem to get enough of Stella McCartney’s funky spring collection.

At Thursday’s Swarovski Crystallized Unsigned Model Search Event in London, Helena Christensen (right) added intrigue to a patterned shift with striped, blue tights and a neon-green purse. Previous supporters of the unusual frocks include Charlize Theron, who selected a one-shouldered mini for the L.A. premiere of Young Adult, Gwyneth Paltrow, who celebrated Coach’s 70th anniversary in a one-sleeved version and Nicole Kidman, who sported a burgundy column at the Country Music Awards.

Call it blonde ambition: both Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron recently lightened their locks for their new film, The Paperboy.

Kidman appeared on the New Orleans set this week with shockingly bright blonde hair (perhaps a wig?), a big change from her recent reddish hue. The actress vamped up the look on Wednesday with lots of makeup, wearing a half-buttoned blouse, tiny denim shorts and sky-high heels.

Efron, normally a brunet, appears to have added some subtle golden highlights to his flowing hair, giving him a sun-kissed look that matches his rugged tan.

Las Vegas might be known for playing up the glitz and glam, but for Sunday night’s Billboard Music Awards, it was all about the little black dress. Whether it was super sexy like Selena Gomez‘s cut-out Dolce & Gabbana gown or futuristic like Fergie‘s strap-heavy Hervé Léger by Max Azria Atelier mini, music’s heaviest hitters went for the classic color. Nicole Kidman added a sweet touch with her long lace dress and side braid, while Beyoncé embodied simple elegance in a Lanvin sheath with over 75 carats of Lorraine Schwartz diamonds! Lady Antebellum’s Hillary Scott skipped the country-favorite gowns for a sleek Mandalay dress with a semi-precious stone neckline. And let’s not forget Kylie Minogue’s heavily embellished Alexander McQueen frock with fringed booties or Britney Spears‘s clean-lined, spaghetti strap Hervé Léger mini. Whew, what a night for the LBD! Take our poll below and tell us who was your favorite!

Jennifer Aniston, Brooklyn Decker and Nicole Kidman flaunted three very different — but equally sexy — looks at last night’s New York City premiere of Just Go With It. While Aniston chose a classic, strapless Dolce & Gabbana gown with a sheer skirt, Fred Leighton jewels and an oversized Burberry clutch, Decker showed off her enviable assets in a second-skin Dolce & Gabbana leopard sheath and plum Brian Atwood pumps. Oscar nominee Kidman, who recently said that she prefers “boy-girl looks,” oozed sexy but tough appeal in a leather L’Wren Scott suit and blush-colored blouse. Leather, leopard and transparent chiffon? Sounds like our kind of Tuesday night! Tell us: Whose sexy premiere look was your favorite?–Justine Harman

Hollywood’s fashionistas including Nicole Kidman, Hailee Steinfeld and Julianne Moore embraced the lighter end of the color spectrum this weekend. At the 26th Annual Santa Barbara Film Festival on Friday, award recipient Nicole Kidman wore a sophisticated belted Nina Ricci shirtdress, which she paired with strappy putty-colored Pierre Hardy heels and an Omega watch. At the same event, Oscar nominee, Hailee Steinfeld, opted for a feminine cap-sleeved Alberta Ferretti frock, punctuated by red Aldo pumps. The following night, in N.Y.C., Moore was red, black and white all over, juxtaposing fiery tendrils with a stark white smock by The Row and matte tights at an HRC event. We think this lightened look is divine, but we want to know what you think. Tell us: Are creamy dresses white hot or a major ‘do not’?—Justine Harman

Nicole Kidman Trades Style Tips with Jennifer Aniston

Nicole Kidman Jennifer Aniston Alexi Lubomirski for Harper’s Bazaar

As Harper Bazaar‘s February cover girl, Nicole Kidman sat down with fellow Hollywood heavyweight Jennifer Aniston – her costar in the new comedy, Just Go with It – to dish on her style philosophy. “I like boy-girl looks. I have no sense of what’s fashionable; I just know what I like to wear,” she tells Aniston. “I don’t like kind of changing with the wind; I like sticking to my own self.” By that, she means staying loyal to designers like L’Wren Scott and avoiding being fussed over with couture confections: “Yeah, Renee Zellweger said she’s just not that interested in having loads of designers make clothes for her; it feels gluttonous. That is so right. It’s not the place to be, particularly in your 40s.” But has the Nashville-transplant really embraced her new hometown style? “I don’t wear cowboy hats,” Kidman admits. “I think they’re cute. I sometimes put one on with a bikini, but it’s a particular look. I like a cowboy hat on [2-year-old daughter] Sunday Rose.” To read more of their interview, go online or pick up your own copy of Harper’s Bazaar available on newsstands Jan. 18. – Hana Choi
