Taylor Swift

Sweet singer Taylor Swift exudes femininity with her pink and champagne outfits, delicate country florals and cowgirl boots. Her look is adorable, and in addition to her angelic looks and voice, is part of the reason she is a popular pop star and fashion icon. Taylor Swift rocked a 1940s-inspired belted trench coat at her MTV Video Music Awards performance, and took it off to reveal a girlish red dress.

She was a stunning young lady in red, and the spectrum of reds and pinks suits her well. She does not shy away from cranberry reds, deep pomegranates, bubble gum pinks and barely-there blushing pinks. These colors complement her underlying wardrobe of all shades of white. Swift also works greens, bright blues and the occasional lilac or black formal wear.

We could edge her out slightly with a pair of floral-looking lace heels, with a metallic polish. They would work with any floral dress, a fuchsia tank dress, or with leggings and and over-sized sweatshirt gray, belted cardigan.

Beyonce Knowles

Where Taylor Swift's style is subdued and subtle, Beyonce Knowles is downright eye-popping. A pair of lattice black heels studded with gold could easily become a major component in Beyonce's wardrobe, if we ever saw her wear anything twice. A pair of shoes which exude her personal flair could be worn with a designer gown, a sexy sheath dress, or leather leggings with a matching, belted coat.

Knowles' wardrobe color palette ranges from deep, eggplant purples to sunshine yellow, and every color in between. Similar to Swift, Knowles knows when to work a mostly white or off-white ensemble, from neckline to shoe choice. Beyonce also knows the power of red, and wore a hot red number to the VMAs.

Both super stars performed at the 2009 MTV VMA show, and both women went home with awards.

Even this cold weather that we are having this winter celebrities are still rocking the miniskirts. Now, miniskirts always seem to be in style and then the next minute out of style. This has been the case for over 20 years now. Celebrities like Lilly Allen, Kate Hudson and Chloe Sevigny seem to be bringing the mini skirt back into fashion. Whether it's an actual miniskirt or a mini-dress, the short style is being seen more and more again on the Hollywood scene. If you want to sport this celebrity fashion trend but you live in a colder climate, try a mini-dress from Jean Paul Gaultier that has long sleeves but leaves little to the legs.

Other celebrities such as Mary Kate Olsen, Gwyneth Paltrow and Selma Blair are going for a much darker look this winter. They are wearing the all black ensembles with the touches of the Gothic accessories. Yes, we all know that Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen seem to have this trend down pat, but now it seems like they are setting the fashion trend with the black leggings, oversized coats and pointy black shoes. Mixing a sheer black, over-sized top with some black leggings and black heels will set you in perfect with celebrity fashion trend.

Another celebrity fashion trend that you can spot on the red carpets now is the cut-out dress. These dresses give little hints of the body here and there rather than showing off the whole package. Celebrities such as Rihanna, Jenny McCarthy, Christina Ricci and Ashley Olsen have all dazzled in cut-out dresses. This may not be a fashion trend for everyone, though, since cut-out dresses look best on woman who have the body to show off. If you still want to try this celebrity fashion trend, try to find a cut-out dress that flatters your best assets and go from there.
