Emma Stone and Olivia Wilde Coming to a Drugstore Near You Aug 10th 2011, 15:14 Wednesday August 10, 2011 Between the two of them, Emma Stone and Olivia Wilde have starred in a whopping six big-budget movies this summer alone. They've been all over the red carpet lately, promoting those films and attending other events. And now Revlon has signed the two big-screen beauties as its newest global ambassadors. In other words: Get ready for even more Stone and Wilde. As ambassadors, the duo will become the face of two new makeup and nail-polish lines and will appear in digital, print and TV ads, not to mention having their pretty mugs wallpapered in the cosmetics section of drugstores. (They'll also help raise money for women's health issues.) Said Wilde of her new venture: "I have always admired Revlon and their commitment to giving women the confidence and tools they need to feel beautiful, both inside and out." Getty Images Tuesday August 9, 2011 Though she's the daughter of grunge icons Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love, Francis Bean Cobain has stayed surprisingly under the radar over the years, even while her publicity-seeking mom continued to make headlines. No longer. In a series of striking images taken by designer and photographer Hedi Slimane, Cobain seems a natural in front of the camera, working an angle that's both grown-up sultry and adolescent punk rock. Now nearly 19 (just eight years younger than her dad was at the time of his death), Cobain is tattooed, raven-haired and, yes, very, very pretty. To see more images from the shoot, click here.

But one project she completed before her demise July 23? A fashion collection in collaboration with British retailer Fred Perry. WWD reports that the fall 2011 and spring 2012 Amy Winehouse for Fred Perry line -- which debuted in 2010 -- will still be released as planned. Said the late singer's father, Mitch Winehouse: "When Fred Perry came to us to ask what we would like to do with the new collection it was natural to continue. Amy loved working on both collections, and would want them to be made available." All proceeds from the line will go to the Amy Winehouse Foundation.

Fame Pictures Thursday August 4, 2011 Kate Bosworth is a startlet whose style is often described as effortless, cool, laid-back, subtlely clever, etc. But her new teal-tipped 'do, which she debuted while rocking(?) out at a Coldplay show, is positively bold, striking, flashy, snazzy, etc. So what gives? "Bosworth let hairstylist Luke Chamberlain apply the color to her hair directly instead of go the extensions route, which was the original plan," reports BeautyHigh.com of the actress's photo shoot with StyleCaster.com. I guess blue hair is one to get over the breakup blues? Photo via BeautyHigh.com Wednesday August 3, 2011 This is so obvious as to barely register excitement, but Vanity Fair is honoring Kate Middleton with a mention on its International Best-Dressed List. (Not that we don't enjoy a good duchess-worthy look from time to time either, but making her the star of its esteemed list, now in its 72nd year, is just so, you know, predictable.) In a press release, the mag notes her "whirlwind of fashion successes" and helpfully points out that she's "captivated the world with her signature mix of high and low fashion." Other snazzy dressers who made the cut include Barack and Michelle, Carey Mulligan, Justin Timberlake and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy. But lest you think VF's list is totally devoid of surprises, consider its left-field appointee to the best-dressed Hall of Fame: NBC anchorman Brian Williams. Chris Jackson/Getty Tuesday August 2, 2011 Good lord, is Katy Perry's hair going to fall out? The singer has gone from her signature black tresses to red to blonde to pink--in the space of about six weeks. Yesterday, Perry ventured out in L.A. with bright pink locks, but before she did, she Tweeted on July 25: "I have been dying my hair since 10pm! Good GOD let me get to my destination tonight! #beenblack #beenblue #beenhotginge #beenblonde #now..." What's more, People reports that the pop star's hair-color parade was recently halted due to "risk of damaging her hair." Yikes! Faring better: Nicole Kidman, whose platinum blonde shade is, thankfully, just a wig for a movie role.

The actress hosted a benefit wearing a beaded Valentino sheath that combined a current trend (the printed maxi) with a sleek, modest silhouette reminiscent of the old school of glam. Completing her look: a loosely structured updo that showed off her diamond Bulgari earrings. - John Waters on Amy Winehouse's fashion legacy: "It's hard to look that cheap and pull it off."

As of July 21, Kristin Cavallari was a blushing bride-to-be on a photo shoot where she modeled wedding dresses by Anne Bowen and Mon Cheri Bridals and gushed about her upcoming nuptials ("I want a romantic, mystical wedding, with lots of flowers," she told Life & Style). As of July 23, the reality star was single, reportedly blindsided when her fianc�, Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, broke off their engagement. Kind of sounds like a movie plot, doesn't it? Photo courtesy Life & Style Tuesday July 26, 2011 The Daily Mail is reporting that the long-discussed Sex and the City prequel movie is happening and that the four leads are close to being cast. Despite protestations from original cast members Sarah Jessica Parker and Kristin Davis, it seems series producer Michael Patrick King is on board to take Candace Bushnell's two prequels (The Carrie Diaries and Summer in the City), which chronicle the characters' teen and young adult lives, to the big screen. And in the starring role ... Elizabeth Olsen as Carrie Bradshaw, supported by Blake Lively (Samantha), Selena Gomez (Charlotte) and Emma Roberts (Miranda). Olsen isn't quite a household name just yet, but seeing that she counts designers Mary-Kate and Ashley as siblings, the 22-year-old actress just might have the style chops to play the fashion-forward, label-loving Bradshaw.
