London Fashion Week may have just wrapped yesterday and New York the week before, but that doesn’t mean the fashion frenzy is over…not yet anyway. Before we head off to all the posh parties of Paris and Milan and take in the couture shows, let’s have a look at the chic celebrities spotted across the pond.

From sophisticated socialites and stylish models to Hollywood A-listers, here’s a list of Celebs.com’s Top Ten Picks for Best Dressed of London Fashion Week:

10. Style icon Pippa Middleton turned heads at the Temperley London Spring/Summer 2012 show on Monday in a black and cream fan dress by the designer. Accessorizing with a little black clutch and suede booties, Pippa looked the image of modern royalty.

9. Twilight” star (and typical tomboy) Kristen Stewart traded in her skinny jeans and Converse for a more glam ensemble at the Mulberry Spring 2012 Presentation on Monday. Rocking a printed Mulberry mini and black booties, Kristen took a front row seat next to none other than —you guessed it — style legend Kate Moss.

8. British Fashion Council Cultural Ambassador, model and Vogue.com blogger, it’s no wonder Laura Bailey showed up to the Topshop Unique Spring/Summer 12 show looking absolutely fabulously awesome. From the hair to the makeup to the clothes, we’re totally digging this look, aren’t you?

7. Known for her impeccable taste (in clothes) and cutting edge style, British beauty Sienna Miller rocked out in black leather trousers and matching wedge booties at the Burberry Spring/Summer 2012 show on Monday.

6. The always stylish and Celebs.com list-worthy Olivia Palermo stepped out in a long black maxi skirt with sky high pumps (just the thing for cobblestone streets) and a tailored white blazer to attend the Jaeger London Spring/Summer 2012 show on Sunday. We love the bright pop of color added by her clutch.

5. Model and rising star Georgia May Jagger stole the spotlight in a stunning strapless black and white gown at the Moet & Chandon Etoile Award Ceremony at the Park Lane Hotel on Monday. Soft waves and a bold red lip finish off her sophisticated, high fashion look.

4. Celebrity stylist turned fashion designer Rachel Zoe showed up at the Burberry Spring/Summer 12 Presentation making a may-jor statement. Donning a thick wool, plaid and fur-trimmed coat, if anyone can pull off this look, it’s definitely her! Then again, wearing plaid to a Burberry show is pretty much always a good idea.

3. British supermodel Kate Moss was a vision in white at the Moet & Chandon Etoile Award Ceremony on Monday. Channeling old Hollywood glamour, Kate opted for red lips, a floor length white gown and long, lavish fur jacket. Faux fur, we hope, yes?

2. Another stylish sighting at Burberry Spring/Summer 12 was international model Poppy Delevigne, spotted in this chic, navy blue wool fitted dress made by the designer. If we didn’t know better, we would have thought Poppy was walking the show, not just sitting front row!

1. Adorned in an all white gown with a plunging neckline and high slit, Victoria’s Secret model and “Transformers” actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was definitely the belle of the sparkling Moet & Chandon Etoile Awards Ceremony.

PICS: Homer Simpson Sells Home to Apu for $5.5m

21, 2011 1:00pm

Homer Simpson/Krusty/Groundskeeper Willie/Mayor Quimby (a.k.a. Dan Castellaneta) has sold the property he and his wife share in the Pacific Palisades (between Santa Monica and Malibu, for you out-of-towners) to Apu/Moe/Chief Wiggum (a.k.a. Hank Azaria) for $5.5 million.

Azaria has a new show on the air (“Free Agents”) while “The Simpsons” looks set to get its own cable channel, all Simpsons all the time, so the new checks will mix with the royalty checks for a long, long time to come.

Lauren Beale at The L.A. Times reports that Azaria recently sold his 9,000 sq.ft. (7BR, 10BA) Bel Air mansion earlier this month for more than $11m and is, by definition, downsizing to the 4BR, 3 1/2BA Tudor residence that comes in at 4,414 square feet on a half acre of gardens that include a saltwater pool.

celebritynetworth.com estimates Castellaneta’s net worth at about $60 million. The actor’s previous home on San Lorenzo St in Santa Monica (3,891 sq.ft.) sold in 2008 for $3.3 million.

Another beach house is hitting the market. Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell are selling their oceanfront Indonesian-inspired, buddha-friendly Malibu escape for $14,749,000. The house, renovated six years ago and hitting the books at 4,300 square feet, has 4 bedrooms and 4 1/2 bathrooms, and also offers an office, meditation room and screening room. Hawn and Russell have leased the property for summer vacationers (it reportedly rents for $80,000-$95,000 per month) and they've placed this parcel on the market on prior occasions.

Celebs.com’s Emmys Best Dressed List

By Elizabeth Mitchell

As with any good awards show, the Primetime Emmys are as much about the fashion as who takes home a trophy. If you tuned into this year’s ceremony, you’ll know that the red carpet style definitely didn’t disappoint. From statement-making, fiery red evening gowns to glitzy, hip-hugging dresses, Celebs.com tackles the one question that’s on everyone’s mind—who were the best dressed celebs of the evening?

Check out our top ten list complete with pics after the jump!

10. A-list actress and Emmy presenter Katie Holmes blue our mind in this simple, chic belted dress by Calvin Klein Collection. A messy high bun adds the finishing touch to pull together her fashionable red carpet look.

9. Donning a strapless Georges Hobeika Couture Fall 11 gown with lace overlay detail, Emmy nominee Julia Stiles looked like the portrait of a lady as she hit the red carpet in true Emmy fashion.

8. Emmy award winner Kate Winslet turned up the heat in a sophisticated red cap-sleeve dress from Elie Saab’s Resort 2012 collection. Pulling her hair back into an elegant updo, Kate looked effortlessly chic and polished per usual.


7. The always fabulous Emily Blunt dazzled in a deep v-neck navy blue gown by Elie Saab. We guess the devil doesn’t actually wear Prada, and neither does her assistant!

6. Actress Evan Rachel Wood channeled old Hollywood glamour with her swept back do and black sparkling evening gown from Elie Saab Fall 2011.

5. Emmy presenter Minka Kelly was lovely in lace at the 2011 awards ceremony on Sunday night. The Friday Night Lights actress wore a long-sleeve navy gown by Christian Dior and Barbara Bui shoes.

4. Modern Family’s Sofia Vergara looked insanely sexy in a custom coral one-shoulder dress designed by Vera Wang. Chandelier earrings and a slew of gold bangles complete the look without distracting from the gown.

3. Keeping the rest of her look fairly simple, Glee actress Lea Michele wowed in a red-hot Marchesa dress and minimal jewelry. We love the low draped back and embellished shoulders of her glamorous awards gown.

2. Kelly Osbourne looked fabulously glam as she showed off her fit new figure in this gorgeous, curve-hugging dress by J. Mendel. We bet the stylish star won’t be seeing herself on E!’s Fashion Police anytime soon (except as a judge or on the best dressed list, of course)!

1. Vampire Diaries’ actress Nina Dobrev stunned on the red carpet Sunday night in this beautiful bright red strapless gown by Donna Karan. To top off her look, Nina accessorized with a Judith Leiber clutch, Neil Lane Jewels and Brian Atwood Heels.

Welcome to our Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week round-up of the best on the runway.
