And shoes.  And bags. And accessories.  Damn, this girl has a big wardrobe!  Vanessa Hudgens has been in New York for all of 24 hours and we've already seen her in a multitude of styles. Vanessa made stops at Good Morning America and TRL to promote her new album Identified; she also did some shopping at Intermix and had a meeting at Marc Ecko's.  Well, I guess a busy schedule calls for many outfits!  Luckily my schedule only calls for one pair of jean cut offs, a tank top and a pair of reading glasses, but I find it no less glamorous.

         

We spotted Ashley Tisdale yesterday, the star seemed exhausted after spending 45 minutes buckling up her sandals.  The Tiz, her gladiator flats and her mom Lisa were shopping in Los Angeles.  Ashley has recently wrapped High School Musical 3 which will be released in October with accompanying soundtrack (of course), I'm just counting down the days!

    

Sometimes these headlines just write themselves.  Seriously, is Steven Tyler shopping at Chico's these days?  Maybe Talbots?  If you squint your eyes he looks like a mom (albeit a fashionable one) from the O.C.  We spotted the lady-man out with his girlfriend Erin Brady and his ex son-in-law Royston Langdon.  Speaking of feme dress, what does old Royston have on???  It's like Jennifer Beals from Flashdance meets Slash; no wonder Liv dumped his ass.

      

This is a sad state of affairs.  What is Steven Tyler, rock and roller supreme, doing wearing a pair of Crocs? CROCS!  We spotted the Aerosmith front man leaving his hotel in NYC yesterday when his new kicks caught our eye.
It really bugs me that these shoes somehow made the move from occupational garment to fashion choice and it bothers me even more that they are infiltrating the rock community.  Steven, you've been through hell and back (and managed to hold onto a career for most of that time) so why now are you breaking down and wearing soccer mom clogs?  Please Steven, they're awful, I don't care if you have to tie one of your scarves on your feet.. just lose the shoes!

   

The Gossip Girls are all dressed up, Hamptons style!  We spotted Blake, Taylor and new comer/real life socialite Tinsley Mortimer on set over the weekend.  I'm going to jump to the conclusion that lovely ladies all dressed in white means that there will be some kind of "white party" on the show; and we know that parties on Gossip Girl almost always end in some kind of crazy dramz. 

      

Josh Schwartz muses Rachel Bilson and Michelle Trachtenberg were on hand for the Whitney Museum Art Party last night at the Skylight gallery space in New York City.  Rachel Bilson looked absolutely FOXY!  Well played madame! Michelle was a close runner up in a deep wine (mmm wine) colored frock.  Also on hand were Super Bowl champ Eli Manning and his new bride Abigail McGraw as well as actor James Franco, who did not look foxy, and that bums me out.  The messy hair and the scruff is not working for me James, it obstructs the view of your beautiful face, clean it up!

      

Apparently I missed the memo that read "You are now required to dress like it's the 90s.  It is not the 1990s, at all, but be aware that ill-fitting denim, Cross Colors and vests will become mandatory.  It is suggested you dig through your parents' basement to find appropriate items." 
Know who did get the memo though?  Lauren Conrad!  We spotted The Hills star leaving a gym in Los Angeles yesterday in the boldest, shiniest, blue leggings she could get her hands on! LC is  joining the throngs of stars (including Rihanna and Hilary Duff who rolled up to breakfast in Donna Martin's old clothes yesterday) who are drawing inspiration from their elementary school outfits.  And from now on, people won't walk from place to place, they will simply Electric Slide...

    

Oh Hilary, I'm just going to presume this outfit was a result of a brief mental lapse.  Granted you were going to meet you mother for breakfast in Toluca Lake, Calif. so maybe you were just so tired and hadn't had your coffee and you just blindly grabbed the first three things you could find?  Please Hilary, please don't tell me you intentionally put a day-glo orange, puffy tank with a cut-off jean skirt with brown leather boots together on purpose!  It would just break my heart.

   

A one-piece outfit is always a gamble.  It has the potential to look pretty fantastic but many times it ends up looking a janitor who wanted to jazz up his Dickies; luckily for Michelle Williams (the singer, not the actress) it turned out to be the former rather than the later.  We spotted Michelle arriving at the TRL studios in Times Square yesterday to promote her new album Unexpected; well, Michelle, I didn't expect you to look so good!  I'm not really crazy about the fake boobs (and yes guys, they are fake, she's freely admitted it) but I won't let that take anything away from her ability to pull off a shiny jumpsuit. Well done.

     

"Hey Chris, it's me, RiRi...oooh, not much, just grabbing dinner with some friends in the city...yes, the French fries were incredible!  Anyways, I just wanted to tell you about this sweet new haircut I got.  It's loosely based on Toni Braxton circa her first album and Moe from the Three Stooges...I think you're going to find it incredibly sexy."
At least that is how imagine Rihanna's conversation with Chris Brown would go if she to describe that ridiculous 1992 hairstyle she's got goin' on.  Seriously Ri, wtf are you thinking?!  You look like you could be one of Gina's friends on Martin! It's just another bad haircut rackin' her brain...
