The unknowing teenagers are stylin' in the not-so-sleepy town of Fell's Church without taking a big bite out of their parent's wallets. The wardrobe on The Vampire Diaries is part Retro, part casual, and more classic than trendy. The town, similar to the vampires that haunt it, seems to be a time capsule, where trends fear to tread.

Sad Girl, Cool Accessories on The Vampire Diaries
The clothing worn on The Vampire Diaries is more subtle and dreary than that worn during the the early years of another popular high school vampire show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Elena may still be grieving about her parents, but that doesn't stop her from being fashionable. She carries a Retro Abbey Road messenger style bag, perfect for carrying around a journal to write down poetry and sad thoughts. There's room enough for a school book, her phone, a wallet and a bulb of garlic, if she ever figures out that the two brothers who set her heart racing are really vampires.

For true Elena style, opt for dark denims with only one or two subtle tears. As Elena becomes even more world-weary we will see her fashion sense take on more of an edge. Swapping blue jeans for stark black jeans, red tops will find their way into her wardrobe, along with a cropped onyx leather coat, worthy of any girlfriend of a vampire.

Fashion Bites: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Before the Vampire Diaries, there was Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Buffy, as played by Sarah Michelle Gellar on the TV show was fond of the red and black combination, from red leather pants and tight black tops to black pants with sexy red tops or red leather coats. She also wore white, beige and other feminine hues to complement her darker side. She also could have used a pair of femme fatale leather boots while on her vampire killing sprees.

Get out all the pink baby clothing as baby girls are taking over Hollywood. Actress Ellen Pompeo gave birth to a daughter, Stella Luna Pompeo Ivery, on September 15 in Los Angeles. This is the first child for the Grey's Anatomy star and her husband Chris Ivery. The couple has been married since 2007 and announced the pregnancy back in April.

Another celebrity couple that welcomed a daughter this past week was Sarah Michelle Prinze (Gellar) and Freddie Prinze Jr. A rep for the actress, announced the couple "welcomed their daughter Charlotte Grace Prinze on Saturday, Sept. 19." This is the couple's first child who also announced that they were expecting in April of this year.

Yet another celebrity that welcomed a daughter is Jude Law. Although his situation is much different than the previous couples, he does now have another daughter. Samantha Burke, who had a brief fling with the actor and consequently got pregnant from that fling, gave birth to a girl on September 22nd. Sophia weighed in at 5lbs 12oz and a rep for the aspiring actress says that she is "overwhelmed with joy." Jude has acknowledged that he will take responsibility for the baby. This is his fourth child as he 3 kids with his ex Sadie Frost.

One Hollywood couple that does have kids together but are not very happy right now is Kelly Rutherford and Daniel Giersch. The Gossip Girl actress has filed a temporary restraining order against her soon to be ex-husband stating that "has begun to follow me, my mother and my nanny and he shows up unexpectedly to threaten and scare us." A lawyer for Giersch says that these are "fabricated accusations." The couple has been fighting over custody of their two children Hermes, 2, and Helena, 3 months, since the beginning of the year. Their next court date is set for October 15. Hopefully for their childrens' sake, this gets worked out soon and they can get along.
