The Hills star and soon to be Fab-Mommy, Kristin Cavallari is looking uber bumptastic these days! In January, Kristin and her fiance, Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, announced they were expecting, and said they will post-pone until after the baby makes it's debut. How cute does she look? This photo was taken last week during a Pre-Oscars event and early February she told Celebuzz in an interview that she's "Not even looking for a wedding dress right now." Kristin is due late Summer and so I'll be following her fashionable pregnancy. Congrats to the happy couple!

BEAUTY: CHANEL Exclusive Las Vegas de Chanel Collection
Lucky Stripes Irridescent Powder for Eyes & Cheeks ($95.00) Shades of sand and bronze
"A city arises from the middle of nowhere in a feverish vision, like a mirage. Under the azure blue of a cloudless sky, Las Vegas keeps the desert dust at bay in the hypnotic ballet of neon lights. Along the Strip, the luxury hotels and casinos set the scene for a modern fairytale in which all dreams are possible. Amongst them stands the Bellagio Hotel. Its sumptuous gallery will welcome an entirely remodeled CHANEL boutique in earlier this year. An elegant stopover in a modern-day treasure hunt.See more of the collection below:
Peter Philips, Creative Director of CHANEL Makeup, creates a gold-plated collection and strews stardust over polyester dreams. The iconic gold of CHANEL elegance slips into every texture. A silky powder on the skin, sunny lacquer on the nails or a sheer whisper on the lips, it highlights a radiant face that’s on a lucky streak.The Exclusive Creation of the collection concentrates the entire spirit of Las Vegas in its traditional square case. Lined up in rows, four shades of sand and bronze sweep through every variation of a fabulous desert in which gold embraces the sun and shines. On the surface of the colours, an embossed star design seems to extend a warm welcome to the city of dreams. For an illuminating makeover, a beveled brush is ideal for choosing and blending shades, sweeping lightly over the cheekbones, face or eyelids."

Top 7 Trends: Spring/Summer 2012
'BUTTON IT ALL-THE-WAY UP'
Celebs and trendsetters have been spotted buttoning up their Oxford collared shirts all-the-way up this winter, and it looks like they will keep it up this Spring/Summer. I'm totally loving this trend because their is so many ways to embrace the embellished collar or statement collar necklaces to make this chic and effortless! Will you try it?
'Cap-Toe Heels For Me'
Okay, so I've been spotting cap-toe heels everywhere and I love the variations (pointy to round)I've seen plenty from Christian Louboutin as well Prada, Sergio Rossi, Yves Saint Laurent and a host of other fabulous designers. This is definitely a fun way to play with your super chic outfit during the evening or even during the day. I'm currently obssessing over a pair of Christian Louboutin Bis un Bout pumps that will be my staple shoe (as soon as I find a pair in my size). Are you feeling this trend?
'FLOWER POWER'
What better way to welcome Spring than with some good ol' flowers?! Seems like everywhere I go I see floral suits, jackets, jeans and shirts, sure to be a absolute staple this season. Brighten up your day with some flowers....from you, of course! I think this is an adorable trend that can be played/dressed up with. Be sure to have fun and make it your own by mixing different flower patterns, like pairing a bright shirt with floral pants and neutral shoes. Do you have flower power?
'Mix-Them-Up'
I love that mixed prints are staying around for another season, don't you love pairing snakeskin with stripes and brights with leopard? Spring/Summer 2012 is all about expression and being comfortable with the many prints surrounding us or the vintage prints we have in our very own closet. Feel free to mix up your prints again this season, what are you waiting for? #Y.O.L.O.
'COLOR ME.....NEON'
My philopsophy this upcoming season is to either to "go bright or go home" and I say this with my whole heart! Have you not fallen in love with neon yet? I'm having a love affair with it and glad to see more color on the runway, red carpet, streets of DC and just at the nearest mall. Designers and well-known trendseting stores (H&M, Topshop & American Apparael) have embraced this trend to the fullest and dare I say it...I'm head over heels for it. So color me neon, why don't you?!
'The Bold & Beautiful Pattern Tights'
Never have I ever been that girl that "loves" tights/stockings but I'm definitely appreciative of the bold pattern tights that celebs like Rihanna, Kourtney Kardashian and others have been spotted in. I have several friends that love this trend as well and since it's still cold in the city it looks like it might be here to stay for at least another month....so it looks like pattern tights will be in rotation this Spring for sure. Looking for fun pattern tights? Check stores like: Urban Outfitters, ASOS and American Apparael for a reasonable deals!
'I like my Splits THIGH-HIGH'
I loveeeeee and adore this sexy and super fun dress that Kelly Rowland is wearing (above), it's the epitome of showing just enough without giving too much away! Ladies take note. The 'thigh-high' split movement has me swooning over countless maxi dresses I've seen in-stores lately, especially since my birthday dress embraced this trend I'm definitely a fan of embracing my inner 'sexy'. If it's done right, then this trend could be perfect for you. If you've worked out in the #occupythegym movement, show off some leg this Spring/Summer for goodness sake!

BEST DRESSED: The 84th Annual Academy Awards (Oscars Red Carpet)
The 84th Annual Academy Awards took place in the beautiful California where stars wore their finest on the red carpet. I was literally floored at all theee AMAZING fashion choices (kudos to those celebrity stylists keeping our stars looking their best) and how elegant everyone looked. I usually just tune in for E! Red carpet coverage but this time I decided to catch a bit of the Awards and was very proud of all the winners! Honestly, this was one of the hardest 'Best Dressed' list decisions I've made in a long time...because it seemed like everyone looked their best but as always, we choose our very very best to feature. Enjoy :)
