David Beckham Cringes About Matching Leather Outfits

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers,

David Beckham still cringes about the time he and wife Victoria wore matching leather outfits.

The couple - who have been married 13 years - donned his and hers black Versace biker suits for one of the fashion house's parties in 1999.

Looking back on some of his style choices, David, 36, admits it was a low point: "Me and Victoria wore matching black leather outfits once. They were Versace. But that's one when I look back and am like, 'What were we thinking?' We laugh about that one. I remember that it's really good until you do it as a couple."

The father-of-four has never been shy of making a statement, having even once worn a sarong for a night out. "I look back on some stuff and think I can't believe I actually wore that. I have no regrets, though - I knew at the time it was good."

But he insists his choices have nothing to do with his 37-year-old fashion designer wife. "I was [once] a pageboy and had a choice between wearing some boring old suit or a pair of knickerbockers with ballerina tights and slippers. So I went with the tights. It's not that I always wanted to be different, but I knew what I liked."

-- Victoria Beckham covers February's issue of Vogue UK looking rather bare-faced and less glamorous than usual. Marking her sixth solo Vogue cover, the singer-turned-fashion designer talks about her style's evolution and -- more importantly -- what it's like to wake up next to David Beckham.

-- Hilary Swank is one Oscar-winning actress who actually is down-to-earth: the woman loves a good bargain, and isn't ashamed of -- gasp -- clipping coupons. If only she had shopping secrets to scoring designer labels...

-- Anja Rubik stars in her third consecutive Fendi campaign, shot (of course) by Karl Lagerfeld.

-- Speaking of Anja, the model's agency recently announced her Christmas engagement to fellow model Sasha Knezevic. As if there aren't enough super hot couples to be jealous of.

-- Lady Gaga treated her monsters to a nice holiday surprise with details of her upcoming album. More importantly, she posted a preview of the album art, which features her rocking a unicorn-blazoned jean jacket that reads, "Born This Way." Oh, and she has completely ditched pants -- literally.

Fashion Police: Picnic Ready Diane Kruger

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News,

A stylish look is never complete without a picnic basket…

A favorite of Karl Lagerfeld, it’s no surprise that model-turned-actress Diane Kruger appeared at the Chanel Cruise Show in St. Tropez last night. Kruger, who is the new face of Calvin Klein’s fragrance Beauty, paired a Chanel high-waisted bell-shaped skirt with a simple black tank and fedora in addition to the somewhat-out-of-place basket.

Over the top or just right for a prim and proper Chanel party?

Much like Crocs, Snuggies are an abomination to the fashion industry (if one dares to even include them as such products) that somehow produce a viral effect. Despite Snuggie’s laughable appearance at New York Fashion Week, The Girls Next Door reality star Kendra Wilkinson has fallen into the product’s comfy charms.

Perez Hilton Follows Lady Gaga Pantsless Trend

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Shows, Men, Tops,

While we all dearly love Lady Gaga and her fashionable decisions, most of us aren’t willing to go there—and rightfully shouldn’t. Case in point: Perez Hilton.

Making a pantsless appearance at a DSquared2 party during New York Fashion Week, the gossip blogger flaunted his not-so-nice-looking legs in a Mickey Mouse… dress? The shoes didn’t help too much, either.

What have you done, Lady Gaga!

Where Are Your Pants, Lady Gaga?

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Women,

Oh Lady Gaga—I thought that we moved quickly beyond this whole anti-pants movement!

I admit that I’m loving the ballerina heels, your new hair, the green shades—well, everything else except for your lack of pants—but enough is enough already. While I realize that Europe is a bit more lax on these issues (clearly, given the ecstatic Parisienne fans who haven’t noticed you’re simply wearing panties), we here in the states would prefer that you at least slap a skirt on those hips.

Please?

Animal lovers in both France and the states (and hopefully the world) have much to rejoice for this week, as both first ladies Michelle Obama and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy have officially pledged to kick all of the fur out of their closets.

First was Sarkozy, whose wardrobe was directly spotlighted when a letter from PETA U.S. was leaked to the Associated Press.

Slightly irked by the all-too convenient leak, Sarkozy wrote to Dan Matthews, senior vice president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals U.S.:
