Telling you about the fashion world's current penchant for
leather trousers gives me the same sick feeling as when I reported the reemergence of the
bare midrift. It's not a trend that should be approached lightly but it was seen on the catwalk at Givenchy and has now been worn by British fashionistas
Alexa Chung and
Emma Watson.
It's a trend that should be approached with a skip full of caution and is certainly not for the faint hearted.

After months of being nameless, the
ShopStyle Beast has finally been named . . .

So I'm shoe obsessed. Who isn't? Imagine my elation when I found out the Saks in San Francisco was redoing its shoe department to mirror the famous New York one.

Some of Hollywood's best
have been spotted wearing Givenchy's Goth-inspired dress, so it comes as no surprise to see a cheaper rendition from one our favorite retailers. This
Emma Cook for Topshop Necklace Dress ($230) is similar to Givenchy's version, but looks more homemade than Goth. The soft baubles add a whimsical touch to the sewn-on chains and I fancy the rivets.
We all know that looking beautiful is something of an art form, but now
Givenchy are celebrating the very special relationship between beauty and art to coincide with their new mascara. The revolutionary
Phenomen'Eyes, (£17.50), with its ground-breaking spherical brush has
certainly caught our attention. What is less well known is that
Parfums Givenchy has commissioned British artist Ian Wright to create a work of art using approximately 5,000 of the Phenomen'Eyes brushes.

With the whirl of events in the past month, it's no surprise the shoe candy is flowing. And the rule is, the fancier the event, the fancier the shoe, so we have some stunners in this mix. But how well have you been paying attention to the most Fab accessory of all?

Here we have two girls gone goth. By now we've seen
Madonna in her Givenchy goth ensemble from the Fall collection a couple times. But how does she look compared to Jennifer Lopez, who's
currently vacationing with hubby Marc?

Warning: These handbags will make a dent in your bank account. It's my duty to let you into the wonderful world of ostrich bags.
These spotted confections are a luxurious investment you won't regret.
