IZABEL GOULART SHREDS THE PARIS SIDEWALKS!

Leave it to Izabel Goulart to treat a sidewalk like a catwalk in Paris this week. And why not?

As Paris Fashion Week burns up the town, the stunning Brazilian model looked so stunning prancing nonchalantly along Place Vendome that she brought new meaning to the phrase "tearing it up" with her stylishly shredded jeans.

And, oh, yeah, her plain white tee and trench combo get two thumbs up as well. But the best part of her outfit has got to be those incredible beige-and-white pumps. We love the contrast between these elegantly sexy shoes and the post-punk urban reference of her designer denim. Walk that walk, Izabel.

NOW TRENDING: THE NO-HAIRCUT HAIRCUT!

For as long as we can remember, the I-spent-three-hours-in-the-salon look was all the red carpet rage (think Old Hollywood waves, chic chignons, intricate braids, and tumbling S-curls). 

Now, the I-woke-up-like-this look is set to take center stage.In case you haven't noticed, A-listers such as Jessica Alba, Sienna Miller, Alexa Chung,Kristen Stewart, and many more seem to be slacking off and shying away from super-sculpted strands, opting for a far less perfect, ultra-shaggy, I-haven't-had-a-proper-haircut-in-six-months type 'do instead. (In fact, the no-haircut haircut is essentially the new way to do ombre.)

If you're thinking of test driving laid-back, low-maintenance locks, don't forget to palm a glossy finishing serum through your strands every day. Regardless of how effortless the style may be, it's the slight-shine factor that'll ensure your mane still looks pretty and polished. 

KATE MIDDLETON'S ROYAL BLUE STYLE!

New York may be ensconced in Fashion Week flurry, yet style as usual continues around the world––and across the pond.

At the Portrait Gala at the National Portrait Gallery in London last night, for instance, Kate Middleton shone in navy blue Jenny Packham. Her lovely gown featured a tight bodice, sweetheart neckline and floor-length skirt, complemented by a stunning diamond necklace (reportedly a loaner from the Queen herself.)

Certainly, diamonds so awe-inspiring demand an understated dress, and Kate's classic silhouette made a perfect canvas for her royal bling.

While we may not step out in priceless gems on a regular basis, we do have quite a collection of rhinestone sparklies, and can thusly take a cue from Kate's look by remembering to dress down when sparkled up. Indeed, the Duchess of Cambridge has royal style down pat.
