See all of Kristen Stewart’s Twilight Breaking Dawn Part Two premiere looks »

This week in Kristen Stewart land, it’s been all about skin. That and a little thing called Twilight Breaking Dawn: Part Two. Stewart launched her globetrotting premiere tour in a sheerer than sheer Zuhair Murad gown which left little to the imagination, only to follow it up with another the next day in London. Today, she ended the whirlwind in another bang: a glimmering Elie Saab column dress with a leg slit that could rival only Angelina Jolie’s.

Allowing her to show off a pair of lace up Christian Louboutin heels, the custom Elie Saab dress was matched with an equally bold beauty look, with Kristen Stewart wearing a dark smoky eye with a natural lip colour and a high messy ponytail.

We’re going to take a small pause to acknowledge the fact that Robert Pattinson seems to have a case of frosted tips straight out of 1999. Other than his potentially questionable hair, his grey suit and black tie is the perfect note to end on at the Berlin premiere. Taylor Lautner even returned from his recent overly casual looks in an all black suit. If Kristen Stewart hadn’t selected such stunning looks throughout the tour, the guys could have stolen the show.

If imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, consider Kristen Stewart to be blushing. Stewart—the face of Balenciaga’s Florabotanica—can now offer her boyfriend and fictional vampire husband, Robert Pattinson, some tips on being the face of a fragrance because he has reportedly signed a contract with Dior.

RPatz will be modeling for men’s fragrance campaigns (unlike a certain Brad Pitt we know) and a source told E! News, “Rob likes the brand.” We consider that statement has to be true because Robert wore Dior Homme while walking both the red carpets at the Teen Choice Awards and the Cannes Film Festival.

It’s official, Spring 2013 fashion month is over. And after receiving a daily dose of street style photos and runway updates, it would be silly for us to ignore the trends that we saw day after day (after day, after day). It’s hard not to fall victim to sensory overload, but thankfully our street style photographer, Stefania Yarhi, made it easy for us to pick and choose which trends we know we’ll be seeing all spring long. With hundreds of photos from Paris, Milan, London, New York, and Toronto at our disposal, we just couldn’t ignore the countless graphic tops (a day without a Balenciaga sci-fi sweater sighting was a total shocker), exposed bellies, suits, and mixed prints—so we didn’t because we’re positive they will be huge come Spring 2013. We’ve selected 10 of the biggest fashion trends from the streets and the runways and put them together in one place, so gets to clickin’. The leaves may just be starting to fall, but it’s never too early to plan for spring, right? (RIGHT!)

See how the Lanvin Fall 2012 hair and makeup was done »

Alber Elbaz celebrated his 10th anniversary at Lanvin with a collection for Fall 2012 that featured bold colour, feminine silhouettes and loads of embellishment. The Lanvin beauty team—which included hairstylist Guido Palau and makeup artist Pat McGrath—accented the look with thickly lined eyes and soft hair. The result was a strong yet simple look: complexions were clean and glowing, the hair had a subtle bend and mouths were lightly dabbed with lip balm. Pat McGrath made this beauty statement all about the eyes. Inspired by the idea of a pen and ink illustration, she drew an exaggerated black wing that covered the lid and extended out. Read on as we examine the runway look for Lanvin Fall 2012 in full, complete with tips, tricks and the five products you need to try the hair and makeup at home.

Step aside Mila Kunis, because the girl on fire is taking over at Miss Dior.

The Hunger Games actress Jennifer Lawrence has just been announced by Dior as the new face of its Miss Dior handbag, which is her first major designer endorsement.

If you value your footwear (and your toes, for that matter) do not stand anywhere near Jennifer Lopez.

I learned this today as I was making my way to my seat at the Valentino show in a tent in the Tuileries. I have witnessed paparazzi frenzies many times in my career but there is a particularly panic that sets in when J.Lo is in the ‘hood. The freelance photographers can sniff a guaranteed money shot. The staff photographers know they will face the wrath of their editors if they come back empty handed.

Either way, they are all in battle mode.

See our editor’s houndstooth picks »

Black and white houndstooth is by no means a new trend in fashion—it gained mainstream popularity in the 1930s and has been modified many times over. For Fall 2012 designers have once again put their spin on the classic look and there are many houndstooth pieces that can be kicked up by simply adding red and gold accents.

Maisonette 1977’s form-fitting dress is not full-on houndstooth, but rather gives a hint of the pattern on the top and bottom in case you’re too nervous to go for the whole nine yards. However, for full-on houndstooth try the popular pattern on pants (like this pair by Melanie Lyne) or on a Jacob skirt. If you’re wearing houndstooth on the bottom, be sure to not do the same on top—break it up with a bold colour, like a red blouse from Equipment.

You can also add pops of colour with the accessories you choose to accent with. Red and black heels by Aquazzura will keep you completely on trend, or go small with jewellery. A red and gold ring by Kate Spade or some gold bracelets from Pandora will add just the right amount of colour, turning a classic outfit into something fiery and fresh.

While diamonds may have been named a girl’s best friend, we think that a girl can never have too many sparkly accessories in her jewellery box—diamond or otherwise.

Just in time for fall, we present seven of the glitziest jewellery trends that will cause a flashbulb frenzy. Whether you’re ready to show off your astrological sign with a starry piece from luxury jewellery house Van Cleef & Arpels, always wanted an excuse to wear opals even if they aren’t your birthstone or enjoy mixing intense geometric shapes with precious stones à la Kara Ross, these trends will make all the difference when it comes to getting dressed this fall. From bedazzled brooches to rare coloured stones these luxurious accessories will bring your wardrobe to life.

See the latest street style photos from Paris!

If you’re having a case of the Mondays, today’s edition of street style photos from Paris Fashion Week will definitely be the cure. This weekend our street style photographer Stefania Yarhi has captured 50 plus photos from outside the tents, including a mix of celebrities, editors, and all-around well-dressed folks.

The rapper behind the song Christian Dior Denim Flow—that is, Kanye West—made quite the appearance outside Dior cloaked in very on-trend tuxedo jacket paired with a heavy gold chain (Kim Kardashian for once wasn’t his accessory du jour). We also spotted Carine Roitfeld, Olivia Palermo and Leigh Lezark outside Dior—which, given that it was Raf Simons first ready-to-wear collection for the brand, was one of the more buzzed about shows.
