Brighten up your style with a bold mini, studs, new booties and combination of metallics for a new look.

Bright Bottoms not Neutral Skirts
There is a certain sports drink company known for its black and white commercials featuring the products in color. This same look, featuring a brightly colored miniskirt and neutral top and accessories is au courant. Pair a cute and colorful mini, in a solid color or a pattern with gray, black, white or tan shoes, top and bag. Keep jewelry neutral rather than using colors from the skirt.

Sculptured Shoulders not Bare
A more sculptured shoulder padding is back from the past, specifically the 1980s. More emphasis will be on shoulder and upper arm portion of jackets and tops, with less design at the midsection than has been seen in recent fashion seasons.

Get Your Booties On
A pair of booties will balance out the boulder shoulder look, giving women a new reason to buy this season's bootie styles. New booties come in faux animal materials. Faux booties are also being seen on pumps with bootie-like backs.

Studs on Clothes, Not on Arms
Gals, leave the boy toys at home and wear studs on your clothes instead. Studded clothing brings a rocker edge to any look. Studs are popping up on jeans, jackets, purses and shoes. Studded shoes are available in heels for an extra burst of attitude, or opt for a more subtle edge with studded flats.

Silver and Gold Together
Rather than fret over the silver vs. gold as an accessory choice, the new choice to make is both. Find accessories made with both gold and silver colors. Metallics are not out yet, but it is time to mix them up in new ways. Try bronze with silver, or pewter and gold. Remember, all that shines is not real gold, it could be faux and you will look just as fashionable.

For starters, like a bad penny that keeps turning up, attention starved former-superstar Lindsay Lohan is reportedly in talks with Ryan Seacrest to pen a reality show about the troubled starlet's life. While details are sketchy at present, Seacrest has Twittered on his blog that this is the sort of thing that gives people their second chance. Let's hope so for Lindsay's sake.

While it won't be out until this holiday season, Robert Downy Jr. and Jude Law are currently rocking the preview posters for his heavily revisionist take on Sherlock Holmes this week. While 19th century fashions may be hard to come by, men of taste will note that Mr. Law's jacket style closely resembles Zappos's own Ted Baker Vanbil jacket. We'll have to wait and see if the movie wears as good as those clothes, but for now the teaser trailers are showing some high promise.

The rumor mill this week has been pairing Selena Gomez with ultra hot Twilight star Taylor Lautner. While both camps have been mum on the subject, according to Ryan Seacrest's Top 40 broadcast Selena did recently disclose in an interview that there is in fact nothing going on between the two, and that her favorite Twilight actor is in fact Robert Pattinson. Considering the level of secrecy and misdirection that has surrounded the supposed relationships of the Twilight stars, this could merely be a smoke screen to give the two young stars some privacy.

Speaking of Pattinson, fans will be happy to note he is currently slated to star in the romantic drama Unbound Captives alongside Hollywood heartthrobs Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz. The story follows a widowed woman and her search for her missing children. Fans undoubtedly will be searching for behind the scenes photos of the actors together.

Finally, Sandra Bullock is once again the queen of the box office with her latest romantic comedy, The Proposal. The film grossed over 34 Million domestic this weekend, which is a breath of fresh air for Ms. Bullock. Her last two film outings, Premonition and Infamous, hardly dented the box office earnings sheets, let alone our memories. Hopefully, this marks a strong comeback for one of Hollywood's most recognizable women.
