Burberry is one of my personal favorites. The label tends to crank out classics with a twist and you have to have respect for the trends that never die.

Currently, Burberry is producing a multitude of draped skirts that have become a celebrity favorite. Kristen Stewart, Gwyneth Paltrow and Ali Larter are all fans if the trend. The higher waist on the skirt also gives the body the appearance of longer legs. Long legs are always a plus!

Donna Karan has also taken things a step father with a drapped dress that hugs your curves and helps hide imperfections.

Gwyneth Paltrow is looking washed out. The snowy skin tone and peaches and cream hues are trumping the tan sun kissed look.

I welcome the change as it is extremely easy to go overboard with tanning lotions and potions. She attended the “Unforgettable Evening” event looking like she was ill.

Typically the snowy skin is best for the dark haired gals out there. Sorry blondes, but you needs some color in your skin. Otherwise you will look albino.

To add some color to make her look healthy, Gwen could have done several things to save this look. Giving her cheeks some color would have been her best option. A pink hue would have done the trick. Revlon has some lovely cream blushes. The Berry Flirtatious Minerals Cream Blush would have been perfect.

Darkening her brows a tiny bit might have helped too. Be careful with this one blondes. Don’t go overboard. You want to keep it natural. Just enhance what you have.

Victoria Beckham’s Pixie
A significant change from her trend-blazing angled crop of last year, this Spice girl’s new ‘do softens her features and makes her look less structured, says her stylist, New York’s Garren. However, Garren warns that this cut isn’t for everyone. An angular face shape, high cheekbones and big almond eyes carry off the striking cut best.

Rihanna’s Trendy Crop
In order to pull off this songstress’s daring cut, elegant features and a bold stroke of confidence are a must. “Rihanna’s pixie cut showcases her high cheek bones and long neckline,” says the star’s stylist, Ursula Stephen. “What’s great is that it’s so low-maintenance all you need are regular trims and a great pomade!”

Katie Holmes’ Classic Crop
The perfect mixture of easy maintenance and elegance, this cut is, “very convenient for on-the-go soccer moms who aren’t afraid of stilettos,” says Michael Murphy, Color Director at NYC’s Eiji Salon, who has worked with Mrs. Cruise. “It’s modern and glam, and is perfect for both heart-shaped and thin faces with hollowness at the jowels. Stay away if you have a full face – it’ll exaggerate the roundness,” adds Murphy.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s Blunt Shoulder Bob
Reinventing herself this year, this busy mom’s new style looks amazing worn both curly or straight. “This cut is a refreshing departure from her older, longer hair that was dragging her face down. The shorter length is more uplifiting and draws attention to her delicate features. It’s perfect for oval, diamond and square shaped faces,” says NYC Salon Owner & Stylist Mark Garrison.

Reese Witherspoon’s Growing Out Bangs
If you’re growing out bangs, look to this starlet’s clever new cut to see how it’s done gracefully. “The sexy waves are useful for growing out bangs because it adds flowing transition to the different layers of hair. Cut your bangs to an angle so they sweep easily to the side, and use a lightweight gel and side part to help them stay put,” advises NYC Salon Owner & Stylist Mark Garrison.

Jessica Biel’s Layered Shoulder Bob
Jessica’s round face is slimmed by the playful layers of an above-the-shoulder bob, which also shows off the star’s sexy shoulders. While this cut works beautifully for sweetheart and round face shapes, stay away if you’re one of those gals who has to be able to quickly pull her hair into a ponytail; the flyaways can be especially testy.

Jennifer Lopez’s Modern Farrah Fawcett
If you’re fickle and love to change styles often like Jennifer, a length and cut like this lends itself to trying new looks. “It has movement, softness and sexiness all at once, but allows you to create because there’s a lot of hair to work with,” says Juan Carlos Maciques, celeb stylist at NYC’s Rita Hazan Salon. “If you want to offset strong or prominent features, this cut will soften your look,” suggests Maciques.

Christie Brinkley’s Long, Classic Layers
Who says you have to cut your hair after you’re 40? This supermodel shows us that long, healthy hair looks great at any age. “This sexy, rock and roll cut allows Christie to keep her length and maintain versatility for different styles. My signature “valiage” highlighting technique where I brush highlights on without foils also lifts her skin tone,” says Brinkley’s stylist, Ricardo Rojas of NYC’s Ricardo Rojas Salon.

Debra Messing’s Layered Curls
The key to this red-headed raven’s locks are long piecey layers and a youthful center part that makes her look “hippy chic,” says her longtime stylist, Suave Celebrity Hair Stylist, Luke O’Connor. “There’s no limits as to who can wear this look because it flows past the chin and frames the face wherever you want it to,” adds O’Connor.

Jessica Alba’s Face Framing Bangs
Sexy and touchable, Jessica’s bangs are “wind-swept and not perfectly laying across her forehead,” says her stylist, Robert Ramos. Ramos suggests blow-drying bangs from side to side with your fingers in order to get the tousled effect. Bonus: the long layered cut works on just about every face shape and hair texture, and the styling possibilities are endless.

Of her Spring 2008 raspberry collection, Bobbi Brown said, “Raspberry is a brilliant way to wear color. It brings out the natural flush of pink on cheeks. There’s a shade of raspberry for every complexion — from pink to deep raspberry.”

Looking for tips on how to make this flattering look work? Check out some of my razzley-dazzley suggestions when you read more.

• For a radiant evening look, try a shimmery light gray or silvery-blue shadow such as, Bare Escentuals Glimmer in 2000 ($13), a silver blue or Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Vapor ($16), a very light shimmery gray.




• For a more daytime look, try a matte gray or light lavender shadow. I like Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Revolver ($16), a stone gray or Aveda Petal Essence Eye Color in Aura ($12), a soft purple taupe shade with just a whisper of glimmer.




• Coordinate cheek color with a soft raspberry blush. Try Almay Touchpad Blush in Raspberry ($9.26).




• To make your raspberry lipstick or lip gloss last, first line your lips in a similar hue, such as Almay Ideal Lipliner Pencil in Raspberry ($7.49).

One look at these pictures and you’ll wonder who stole their sizzle. But read on. Makeup artists for some of the world’s biggest beauty brands have put together step-by-step face charts that will take your face from wan to wow, just like your favorite star.

Sans makeup, Oscar winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow looks more like a hippie — OK, a rich Hollywood hippie — than a major movie star.

The mother of two is clearly comfortable in her (makeup-less) skin, but she knows how to turn on the shine for a night on the town, or a turn on the red carpet. (Of course, would you expect anything less from a spokeswoman for a makeup company?)

It’s all in the eyes — the surest way to capture Gwyneth’s movie star glam. Start by applying a creamy apricot from lid to crease, and blend a sapphire-charcoal from your lash line outwards on to the lid and outer “v” of the eye. Follow with a light smudging on the lower lash line. Complete with a shimmery white highlighter on the brow bone. Keep the rest of your face soft, luminous and neutral.
