Kate Hudson in Stella McCartney

Spotted! Kate Hudson attended the 2011 British Fashion Awards in London on Monday, November 28,2011.  She looked radiant in her dramatic Stella McCartney one-shoulder cut-out dress.  The see-through mesh panel along the torso accentuates her lean body.  When in doubt, black is always an excellent choice for any occasion.

Adam Levine had his annual Hollywood Halloween party at the infamous Hollywood Cemetery

Halloween in Hollywood. There is nothing like it.  The town is filled with thousands and thousands of actors who are just dying for the chance to perform, so a holiday that requires playing a character is obviously popular here and there are tons of options.  West Hollywood hosts thousands on its closed Santa Monica Blvd where costume is mandatory, performances are a plenty and a parade travels through the city.  Locals and tourists photograph all of the action and in recent years make the pictures viral in seconds.  The famed Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel turns the entire hotel into a celebration, Universal Studios houses a Haunted Maze, Knots Berry Farms turns into Knots Scary Farms, the Los Angeles Zoo offers a Haunted Hayride, and celebrities like Hugh Hefner,  Adam Levine, Kate Hudson, and B.J. Novak host annual parties — it’s nonstop and amazing.  Here are some of our past Hollywood party Halloween highlights to help inspire you for this spooky holiday.

Short Shearling

Love and Other Drugs actress Anne Hathaway sports this winter’s hottest trend, the shearling coat, and it looks great because she is has that casual cool style. We love how she mixed and matched with a flowy mini, floral top, and the trendy hat, she ties together her look with the warm and cozy coat.  The short shearling is perfect to pair with jeans and boots or over an LBD for a warm casual look.

Forever 21 makes this  Suedette Shearling, priced at $28, that incorporates Anne’s style without that movie star price.

Military

Hathaway’s Bride Wars co-star Kate Hudson took a stroll in chilly New York City with her beau, Muse front man Matthew Bellamy, in a Military style red coat.  This coat has a retro look, it is structured and has those gold buttons that oppose the red color well. Wool coats are a must-have for winter, so why we here at SSD advise you to stand out when walking and own the street like Kate.

Be bold in bright outerwear this season like the gorgeous mother of two in Guess’ red military jacket, priced at $139. The metal buttons accent the rich red color, and the coat could serve as your everyday warmth or your night-on-the-town overcoat.

The Kardashian sisters are always ahead of the trends, so you know while opening up her new Dash location in Soho, Kourtney would be spotted in the newest coat design while keeping warm in NYC.  We love that capes have that old fashioned, 19th century look, which you rarely see these days and it can easily be incorporated into a modern wardrobe. Kourtney shows off her classic side in this cape after getting a pedicure with her sister Kim.

#1 Get a Leg up With Over The Knee Boots

Over-the-knee boots are returning as a trend for this upcoming season. They made their popular debut last fall, but they have come back with a fun new flare. Lots of zippers can be seen on these sky-high boots. Skinny jeans or jeggings make a great compliment to the boots for a polished look. Many celebrities ranging from Rihanna to Kate Hudson have been seen sporting this hot trend with boots from Jimmy Choo and Stuart Weitzman just to name a few.

#2  Saddle up!

The trend in handbags for this season is the saddlebag.  Look for saddlebags ranging in richer, deeper shades of leather such as camel and burgundy. The size of the actual bag van vary, from the teeniest of bags, big enough for only a lipstick and wallet to larger bags that can hold enough for a quick weekend getaway.  Many celebrities like Jessica Alba, Kourtney Kardashian and Katie Holmes have been spotted using a saddle bag to tote around their personal items.

#3   The “it” color:  Camel

Not only is camel seen as a popular color for saddlebags but it has also been popping up in fashion as a hot fall trend. Camel has become the new black. Camel outfits from head to toe are incredibly popular as the season changes. Many shades of the color have been seen in higher end boutiques and regular merchandise stores alike, making it easy to mix and match pieces in order to create the perfect look.

Lauren Conrad recently spotted wearing trendy deep navy nail polish.

#4   Metallic Blue and Gold For Nails

On the beauty end of things, nail polish trends are changing with the season. As we move from summer to fall the trend in nail colors tends to get a little darker as well. Deeper, darker hues of colors have been popping up on celebrity fingers recently. Red wine colored polish is always a staple in any fall wardrobe. Some more playful colors are also top trends this season, like metallic blue and gold. Lauren Conrad is always a nail trend follower, recently spotted wearing a metallic navy blue on her fingers.

Rachel Zoe sporting the hottest trend in hair right now; chunky waves.

#5 Wavy Hair Trend Continues Past Summer

Chunky mermaid waves continue to rule in hair trends even though the summer is ending. Charlie’s Angels hair styles match well with any of the boho chic looks that we have been seeing pop up on fashion followers everywhere. This style does translate well with more classic looks as well, helping to make even the most simple outfit look more put together. Celebrities like Rachel Zoe and The Kardashian Sisters are infamously known for their love of the long wavy look.

Sometimes we start off on one path and are lead to another, which changes everything. This can be exciting when you find yourself in love, which is what happened when NY Fashion Institute graduate Meredith Kahn went from clothing designer to jewelry creator. made-her-think

“Jewelry is given to share one’s heart, and it’s amazing to be a part of that.” Meredith mixes diamonds with feathers, various metals and plastics with multiple colors, textures and styles. The feathered bracelet here makes for a delicate, yet hip and romantic accessory. Its also so different than anything else you can find, it really feels special when you wear it.

Hollywood talent like Rihanna, Kate Hudson, Angelina Jolie, Charlize Theron, Kate Bosworth and Eva Mendes are among her devoted following. Editors, tastemakers, entertainment executives, and Lower East Side hipsters are all coming together to agree that Kahn’s creations merge soft romantic with edgy chic, appealing to both the romantic and inner rock starlet in each of us.

Check out the story from Life & Style with a Q & A from Meredith;

Prices range across the board, meaning there is something for all budgets and we believe you will be seeing a lot more of her beautiful wearable art. Kahn creates limited amounts of each design and style, but a variety enough that you can purchase everything from rings, to necklaces and bracelets or even handbags to wear year round and with nearly anything. Her funky and fun style is inspiring to us here at Style Seen Daily, where we believe that we all need to create our own style and people like Kahn make it possible to do that.

September 08: Rachel Zoe and Kate Hudson attend Bravo's The Rachel Zoe Project series launch party at The Gramercy Park Hotel in New York City.

Rachel Zoe dresses high profile celebrities and as a result demands high fees rumored at upwards of $6,000 a day.

The Rachel Zoe Project on Bravo is about the inner workings of Zoe’s world as she attempts to turn her style into a brand.

Zoe makes the perfect reality star and the decision to have a cable show was really a no brainer as she didn’t have much to lose in the general public’s eye. While respected in the fashion world for dressing high profile stars like Demi Moore, Cameron Diaz and Kate Hudsen, Zoe’s public image desperately needed a make over due to accusations of drug use and promoting the stick-thin image. Los Angeles Times once claimed Zoe was “single-handedly bringing anorexia back.”

“I don’t think it’s fair to say that I’m responsible because I’m a thin person, that because I’m influencing their style I’m influencing what they eat,” Zoe stated. “There was this crazy rumor that I was getting diet pills from Mexico and distributing them. I was like, ‘Okay, I’ve never even tried cocaine. I don’t do drugs — I’m too much of a control freak’.”

But Zoe’s past drama in the press seemed to finally work in her favor. The premiere episode of her reality show got higher ratings than the first episode of Project Runway with 527,000 eyes.

Bloggers immediately took to the Internet and typed they were surprised how personable Zoe came across on television. The mainstream press, however, turned out to be a different story. New York Times television critic Ginia Bellafante called Zoe “a pox on humanity” and her “mad consumption … downright unseemly.”

Zoe, who reportedly cried after reading the NYT review, once again defended herself telling the LA Times: “It was the strangest thing in the world for someone who has never met me to accuse me of making our society superficial. Judging the state of society based on me? A ‘pox’? This show is not an effort to solve world issues. It’s a bit of glamour, a bit of an escape.”

Zoe got the last laugh as despite criticism show ratings continued to climb and we here at Style Seen Daily know that Zoe is going no where but up, up, up.

SSD Co-Founder Crystal Fambrini profiled Zoe for Current TV.

THIS JUST IN:  Kate Hudson will be appearing on Project Runway  Season Six.

After almost a year of waiting, Project Runway FINALLY returns to television.  The new season is on Lifetime, not Bravo, Thursdays at 10pm ET/PT.

Now we can’t tell you if Hudson will be a judge or what exactly she will be doing, you will have to set your Tivo’s for that, but we can let you know that she will be looking fabulous thanks to her stylist Rachel Zoe (who of course has her own reality show on PR’s ex network, Bravo).

Gowns with Monroe’s smiling face adorned the models down the runway and it seemed that the new makeup ad campaign face, Johansson, who was dressed a light green silk dress with cap sleeves, could not keep her eyes off those styles. Johansson, a reddish-brunette at the moment, was done up in the campaign to look like Monroe with bright red lipstick and white blond hair.

The UK Telegraph reported on Johansson’s shoot saying, “I’m kind of buxom. I love red lipstick and I love a good lip. I was working with Pat McGrath, the British make-up artist, and she was so funny. Everyone kept saying, ‘Get Pat off the set. Scarlett’s smiling too much.” 


“She is beautiful, and she has beautiful skin,” Stefano Gabbana said of 24-year-old Johansson. He added that she embodied the concept of beauty for young people today.
