Lucy Liu has teamed with Harper’s Bazaar to create a fashion spread in honor of the ongoing 2008 Olympic Games. Vogue, Adidas and Polo among others also created Olympic themed ads, clothing lines and fashion spreads to follow the crowd. Harper’s spread demonstrates that is doesn’t matter whether you win or lose, it’s how you dressed that counts.

Just under a year after her Little Black Book of Style hit bookstores, Nina Garcia will release another style guide: The One Hundred: A Guide to the Pieces Every Stylish Woman Must Own.

The book’s mission is to introduce women to 100 essential items that will solidify their wardrobe and enable them to feel classic.

The book hits stores August 26.

Maybe she spent hours deciding on what to wear for this McDonald’s event. Unfortunately, in her eagerness to impress, this socialite makes a major faux pas, stepping out in an overloaded bikini top and open safari jumper. And need we mention the fedora? This may have a chance of working if she was hitting the beach, but overall, this disaster needs way more chic and much less cheap.

Wondering how to work this classic staple into your wardrobe? Small and dainty pearls are much better suited to an elegant special occasion, whereas big and chunky styles can really work double duty, paired with a sweet summer dress, or a casual t-shirt and jeans. Hopeful First Lady Michelle Obama looks classy and casual pairing her faux pearls with a t-shirt and skirt.

Christina Aguilera looks stunning in a vibrant dress against a wall of flowers in the latest ad celebrating Macy’s 150th anniversary this October.

Other celebrities such as Donald Trump, Martha Stewart, Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein have also posed for ads taken by famed Rolling Stone photographer Mark Seliger that will be released between now and the department store’s birthday.

The votes are in and Michelle Obama has made Vanity Fair’s International Best-Dressed list for the second year in a row.

A rep for the magazine says that Obama “Has a sleek style that’s not overdone. She connects to the modern woman.”

Also making the list is French first lady and former model Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kate Middleton.

So the cut of the dress is cute in theory, but how she ever fell for the sickeningly pastel Sweet Tart color we’ll never know. And while the mile-high Louboutins are hot, they’re all wrong for this attempt at a cohesive ensemble. Mary-Kate’s Jsa Jsa Gabor Green Acres inspired thing just isn’t working. If there’s any Hollywood starlet in desperate need of a stylist, it’s this one.

Madonna and hubby Guy Ritchie step out while divorce rumors fly. But that’s now excuse for the outfit. It’s so atrocious it can’t even be put into words. What was she thinking? Knee-length support hose peeking through satin boxing bloomers? Paired with heels? And that bag! If it weren’t for those stealth guns, I’d say the woman’s let herself go.

The jumpsuit has returned as a hot 2008 summer trend. Available in a variety of styles and colors, this vintage fashion staple is one of the most versatile pieces you’ll own.

The best way to wear it this summer? By keeping it simple with a pair of mile high heels, a great bag, and a pair of oversized sunglasses ala Nicole Richie.

Kanye West is slated to design a men’s shoe line for legendary fashion house Louis Vuitton.

The rapper has been making fashion headlines lately, as he’s also in talks to design a new womenswear line for fall. West calls himself “the Louis Vuitton Don,” and is often seen in the front row at fashion shows and hobnobbing with fashion power players like French Vogue editor Carine Roitfeld.
