Celebrities are the much focused people all around the world. When it comes to actress it takes more sense. Their outfits,fashion trends are noted globally. Selena Gomez, young American actress, singer, and businesswoman. She looks cool with her way of dressing. Here are some of her street fashion styles.

 

The 29 year old had, however, told aides that she didn’t want to be seen as a mere ‘clothes horse,’ the Daily Express reported.



“Catherine’s incredible style evolution has gripped us all,” the panel of judges said. A Global Language Monitor survey in August had said that London had overtaken New York as the world’s fashion capital for 2011 and the Will-Kate royal wedding had a big role to play in this.

“She gave us the year’s, if not the century’s, most thrilling fashion moment,” said Lucy Yeomans, editor of the Harper’s Bazaar.

Two young beauties standing on their own style and trends. Who will you go with? Freida Pinto or Emma Watson. They set there fashion trends and have to go a long way ahead.

Ashlee Nicole Simpson, an American singer and actress. She gets high reputation for the hit of her number-one debut album Autobiography and the reality series, The Ashlee Simpson Show.



In October 2005, following a North American concert tour and a film appearance, Simpson released her second number-one album, I Am Me. Her third album, Bittersweet World, was released almost three years later in April 2008.
 
Besides her activities she is passion in about changing her hair style. In the past she's rocked warm blonde, black, and ginger red. And this year she has gone from a sleek and sophisticated ombré hair. And she is the first celebrity to wear the ombré hair color look. Now her latest hair trend is the platinum bleach blonde cut. And most recently fashion model and Actor Vincent piazza praises Ashlee Simpson as “She's a wonderful girl”. Let as see some trendy hair styles from Ashlee Simpson.






Without any doubt, most of all are waiting for Ashlee’s next hair evolution.

Emma Watson and Kristen Stewart share something in common– both are under pressure to ramp up their games in Hollywood now that their “Twilight” and “Harry Potter” franchises are over. Like Kristen, who appears in the UK edition of GQ, Emma covers the UK and French editions of Elle, and she talks candidly about the need for her to have a certain look. The 21-year-old actress said she does worry about expectations of her as an actress and finds Hollywood “quite scary” for that reason. Emma Watson covers Elle magazines in England and France.



And, no wonder; plastic surgery is a land office business even among Young Hollywood starlets. “I don’t have perfect teeth, I’m not stick thin,” she tells the magazine. “I want to be the person who feels great in her body and can say that she loves it and doesn’t want to change anything.”Still, Watson felt a need to break free from her Harry Potter image and dramatically cropped her hair after filming was done on the last movie.

The move stunned her fans, but sent a clear message. She is determined to make a statement in her own way. “It’s ridiculous that [loving the way you look] seems such an unrealistic goal,” she says.
“I think the actresses who are really successful are the ones who are comfortable in their own skin and still look human.”



This is a big year for Watson, because she has two post-Harry Potter films coming out. She plays a supporting role in “My Week With Marilyn,” which stars Michelle Williams as Marilyn Monroe and Kenneth Branagh as Sir Laurence Olivier. But the pressure will really be on for her second movie, “The Perks Of Being A Wallflower,” because she has a starring role.

Being associated with a blockbuster like “Harry Potter” is no guarantee of success in other films, as “Twilight” stars Stewart and boyfriend Robert Pattinson are finding out. Both Watson and Stewart have glammed up their image through magazine photo spreads, and both have shown that they have matured into sultry women.

Chanel, Gianni Versace and Alexander McQueen are just a few of the designers featured at the “FABULOUS!: 10 Years of FIDM Museum Acquisitions, 2000-2010” at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (FIDM) Museum and Galleries in downtown Los Angeles.



Showcasing over 200 years of fashion, anyone with a thirst for style or appreciation of the art will bare witness to the iconic wardrobe pieces dating back to the 1800s.

“These are really, really rare objects and they are not displayed very often because they are so delicate,” said Kevin Jones, FIDM Museum curator.

Upon entering the dimly lit gallery, black ceilings dotted with small track lights and matching walls lined with glass-encased artifacts; 38 mannequins are displayed among three seemingly floating silver platforms.
The first of three platforms display an eclectic compilation of styles from the modern era. Soft classical music compliments the cold, contemporary atmosphere. Gowns for every occasion, evening coats, leather pants and even a $1,000 priced rhinestone swimsuit from 1955 are brought together from all around the world. Without question, Paris, Milan, London and New York dominate the scene.

Heading toward the back of the exhibit, the second platform features fashion styles from the 1800s and  early 1900s. These mannequins adorned in head to toe couture, defined the fashion silhouette for women in the 1830s with bell-shaped dresses. Most wore bonnets or other head accessories, in addition to detailed broaches, jewelry and gloves.

The third section of the exhibit, hidden from the front of the gallery, is tucked away off to the left in back, featuring more unique 20th century pieces. Featured on a rotating platform is the famous Alexander McQueen evening dress, a cream silk and black lace strapless bodice and full skirt. Other items vary from a 1907 court gown and train to an evening tunic and headdress from 1913, these items reveal more modern fashion concepts for their time.
“This is my only extra day in L.A., so I went online looking for clothing exhibits and found a link to this (exhibit),” said Lisa Brumm, 43, from St. Paul, Minn. “The website featured the Alexander McQueen gown, and I figured if that was one example of what I’d see here, it would be worthwhile.”

Salacious undergarments ornament the walls behind this motif, with brassieres, bust enhancers and men’s “Personality (boxer) Shorts” with the phrase “Everything Grows Big in California” printed on them circa 1950.
All items on display are used for in-class instruction for students at FIDM and also fully illustrated in a 375-page catalog on sale at the museum shop, which is located right outside the exhibit. The catalog, “FABULOUS!,” features other historical fashion pieces not on display at FIDM, and will soon be turned into a textbook.

“The really great part about being in this school is we get access to all of these beautiful costumes and designers,” said Anna Ramirez, 25, a first-year merchandise and marketing major.
