What do , pregnant Halle Berry, actress Cameron Diaz, and Victoria's Secret model Selita Ebanks have in common? These fabulous pair of gold-plated filigree earrings.
Halle Berry lit up her halter gown at Cavalli for H&M Rome collection. Cameron Diaz hid a possible bad hair day under a beanie at the Giants game. Selita Ebanks gave kisses to ex boyfriend Nick Cannon at 2007 Kids Choice Awards.
As you can tell, Berry and Ebanks have on the same gold-plated decorative earrings. If you want to play down these flashy earrings, go for a look like Cameron. Time will only tell if these three fashionistas jumpstarted a new fashion trend. Between you and I, they already have.

Model Petra Nemcova was caught in this Jay Godfrey chiffon empire-waist dress at 2007 Brick Awards this past April.
Socialite Tara Reid rock the same sequin dress in black and white at the L.A premiere of "Reservation Road" two weeks ago.
Style Verdict: Three times on 3 different red carpet events?! This would be a problem if all three didn't rock this dress as they did so elegantly. Tisha and Petra rock this dress with the white fitted bodice while Tara rock it in black.

Style Verdict: "Gothika" Hollywood premiere was the same event that Ashton Kutcher famously pulls a prank via an episode of his hit TV show, "Punk'D" on Halle Berry's expense. Mischa was at the peak of her "The O.C" hoopla. Tom Ford was still designing couture pieces. -sigh!-

SHAKY TO SHAKING IN MOVIES
Obsessed-Hoopla examines shaky to shaking women and men in film. Translation: The transformation from the so-called 'ugly duckling syndrome' to the stylish confident individual. Simply put, this concept is the typical Hollywood film gimmick but below are just a handful of this thought.
Julia Roberts-"Pretty Woman" (1990)
Roberts portrayed a stripper working the elite Hollywood business men crew but by the end of the film Roberts became the confident girlfriend of an affluent business man Richard Gere. Her style went from flashy to classy.
Sanaa Lathan - "Love & Basketball" (2000)
Lathan portrayed a tomboy basketball player who hasn't own up to her girly physique but by the time the credits roll on by Lathan is a self-assured young female. Her style went tomboy to grown-up.
Jennifer Lopez -"Maid in Manhattan" (2002)
Lopez portrayed a single mother living in the Bronx who works around the clock as a chambermaid at one of New York City's five star hotels. When the film wraps, Lopez is not only a strong female CEO of her own chambermaid company in which enlists her closest friends as employees but she became the long-time girlfriend of a JFK Jr.-type politican. Her style went from shapeless maid numbers to couture gowns.
Queen Latifah - "The Last Holiday" (2006)
Latifah acts as a sales clerk who has it mad for LL Cool J, a fellow employee, but she never ever acts on her feelings for him. When Latifah takes a much-needed vacation, she transforms into a caring loyal socalite with fine boutique ready clothing. Her hair style went wearing her hair in a tight bun to a wearing it down.
Anne Hathaway - "The Princess Diaries" (2001)
Hathaway became the nerdy schoolgirl who was unaware of her royal background. When Hathaway portrays a young princess of a faraway nation, she evokes the facade of a young Julia Roberts. Her style went wearing plaid uniform numbers to fairy-tale princess dresses.
Sandra Bullock - "Miss Congeniality" (2000)
Bullock acts as an nonsense street smart FBI agent who has a complicated relationship with Benjamin Pratt. When her job enlists her to be placed undercover, every FBI agent takes notice of the style transformation that became the sophisticated hairspray-spandex mini-wearing Miss Jersey contestant Gracie Hart. Her style went from bushy eyebrows with a sloppy posture to a confident beauty contestant. The undercover scheme did numbers on bringing out Gracie's feminine side.
Hollywood also incorporates the men into what I call 'shaky to shaking' style transformation. Here are just two that stuck out in my mind:
Usher - "In the Mix" (2005)
Raymond acts a DJ by night and a playboy by day but when he acts as a bodyguard for a loyal friend the females (the friends of the girl he's protecting that is) can't resist his Italian-suit wearing charm.
Nick Cannon - "Love Don't Cost A Thing" (2003)
Cannon goes from a goofy pool cleaner who has it bad for Christina Milian to a popular kid in his high school class.
Style Verdict: Each movie mentioned above stressed on wardrobe. Each character in the films went from a shaky wardrobe to a shaking one. To break this thought down further, the shaky to shaking in movies is more so of going from say wallet friendly stores to overpriced designer pieces. All images in this post are via Yahoo! Movies. I try my best not to spoil plot details in this run-down, folks!

This past January, media mogul Jennifer Lopez, in a Prada sweater dress and a black Jimmy Choo tote, attended 2007 Winter TCA Press Tour where she promoted her new reality MTV series, "DanceLife".
Kelly Preston, the actress wife of John Travolta, recently wore the same 3/4 sleeve-length, two-tone outfit at the Church of Scientology Annual Gala Charity Concert 2007.

The "Murakami" show at the Geffen Contemporary at the Museum of Contemporary Art was all about the limited-edition Neverfull totes.

Style Verdict: Both ladies look fabulous despites how hard Mandy is trying to look gothic. Blonde 'bob best suits Mandy. Halle gets extra kudos for her baby bump, though.

REESE'S NINA RICCI HOOPLA
Every fashionista has a favorite designer. My designer of choice is Ralph Lauren but that's besides the point.
Academy Award winning actress Reese Witherspoon's distinctive loyalty for Nina Ricci goes back to that yellow number she rock to the 2007 Golden Globes. Since then, Witherspoon has worn Nina Ricci on several occassions on the red carpet. Obsessed-Hoopla takes you along for Witherspoon's Nina Ricci looks.

The Oscar-winning actress recently revealed her maternity chic style:
I think I feel like I'm such a slave to fashion. It's a hard concept for me to fathom that I'm going to have to wear maternity clothes."
But, as she also sees it, "Fashion is on my side." Indicating her empire waist, she adds, "Everything is up here and shift-y, so I think I can work it out in normal clothes with normal designers in their collections until the eighth or ninth month, then I might have to break down and do maternity."

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes work the red carpet at a special screening of the movie "Lions for Lambs" in Berlin. Katie look elegant in this strapless Armani Prive frock. Holmes is a fan of the designer as he made her wedding gown last year.
Katie's style has changed a great deal since she became Mrs. Tom Cruise. Case in point, Katie's catwalk looks before Tom was all about youthful fun. Katie's claim to fame role was Joey Potter on the hit teen drama, "Dawson's Creek" and this role influenced her good girl next door image.
As of yet, Katie favors tailored signature styles like a classic trench Lanvin coat, a little black dress by Azzedine Alaia, as well as designer duds by Giorgio Armani, Chanel, YSL, Armani Prive, and Giambattista Valli.
While toting around daughter Suri Cruise around the globe, Katie is rarely photographed without a pair of her black Giorgio Armani sunglasses. Always the fashionista, Katie goes for a comfortable look in wide-leg 7 for All Mankind denim, J Brand jeans, and Christian Louboutin pumps.
With Tom, Katie manages to glow in couture pieces like these.
Style Verdict: Marriage life and being a mother has bought out Katie's inner red carpet style.

JHUD'S EMPIRE-WAIST OBSESSION
While browsing my other blog, Urban-Hoopla for old fashion tidbits, I came across Oscar winning actress Jennifer Hudson's empire-waist dress obsession:
[From left to right: In a black glittery Carmen Marc Valvo dress at New Line Cinema 40th Anniversary Celebration. In aqua green BCBG Max Azria knee-length number at Clive Davis Honored with UJA Federation. In a Roberto Cavalli column at 2007 Fashion Rocks.]*
Before we get started, thanks to my dedicated Urban-Hoopla reader SoulKat for letting me in on JHud's love for empire-waist dresses.
[From left to right: JHud in scarlet at the United Nations, in au natural at the 38th Annual NAACP Image Awards, and in gold at the Vanity Fair Post-Oscar Party.]
[From left to right: JHud in beige at the Stuart Weizman Pre-Oscar party and in midnight on the red carpet and runway at the 6th Annual GM Ten Show.]
[From left to right: JHud in red and gold Roberto Cavalli dress and Neil Lane jewelry on the red carpet at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards. Flaunting her fit physique in a gray silk dress at the Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Party. Rocking reading glasses with a blue mini at Long Beach Pride Festival.]
And here is when JHud is NOT rocking a empire-waist dress...
[from left to right: JHud in a olive green sheath dress at the launch party of Omega. Flaunting her other assets in a form-fitting floral slip dress at Giant Magazine celebration. Going for a laid-back look in a white cotton dress with an tailored overcoat at the Celestial: A Diamond Affair 2007 lounge. Looking glam in a gold nude at the Gianni and Donatella Versace's bash for their Rodeo Drive Walk of Style Award.
[from left to right: Rocking Fall's trendy Oxford leggings and a black tunic at Chris Brown's 18th b'day bash. In a black and white Safari-like dress at TAO Hospitality Suite for the 2007 VMAs. Going for a goddess look in a M. Kors asymmetrical dress at Poiret King of Fashion Costume Institute Gala. Looking divine in a velvet Jay Godrey dress at the UK premiere of "Dreamgirls."]
Style Verdict: To place the blame on her stylist is necessary but JHud makes the most of this style that works in her favor. However, JHud is one fierce curvy lady who shouldn't limit herself to ONE dress style!! *images via JHW!*
