2013 is finally upon us, and as many people are probably struggling to remember what they did for New Year’s Eve, the proof—for better or worse—is ready for a peek on social media. New Year’s Eve is often the best time to take a fashion risk, and many celebrities did just that. At the annual Dick Clark New Years Rockin’ Eve blowout celebration in New York’s Times Square, Taylor Swift updated the classic motorcycle jacket with the addition of red sequins as she performed a slew of her hits and planted a kiss on beau Harry Stiles of One Direction at the stroke of midnight. Yeah, we’re not above the swoon. Carly Rae Jepsen wore red as well, fashioned in a long and frilly ball skirt by Sachin + Babi (under which she adorably wore long johns) paired with black lace gloves, Madonna-style.

Urban Outfitters has their illegal panties in a knot. The American retailer is once again under fire, but this time it’s for selling a pair of printed underwear called “Navajo Hipster Panty.” What’s so wrong about a one little pair of underwear? Under the Indian Arts and Crafts Act of 1990, it’s illegal in the United States to market a product by falsely suggesting it is a product of or produced by a particular tribe (in this case, the Navajo tribe).

Last night, celebrities, socialites and songstresses put on their best for the American Music Awards. While there was an abundance of starlets in short dresses and booties, a few dazzled us with their daring fashion statements. We’ve compiled a slideshow of the style stars who wowed and fashion victims who did not. Who do you think rocked the red carpet? View the gallery and cast your vote after the jump.

Right about now, if you beat Lady Gaga in the download charts you’re doing something right. Enter Ke$ha. She spells her name with a cash symbol, sounds like she’s got somewhere better to be, and her slow-banger “TiK ToK” is beating out “Bad Romance” on iTunes. We had to check out her debut full length album, Animal.
