ANGELA SIMMONS IN BCBG MAX AZRIA

Angela Simmons attended Tila Tequila's MTV New Year's Eve Masquerade party in this fringe BCBG MAXAZRIA dress.

The curls and the new hair color really soften her overall look.

This fringe BCBG MAXAZRIA dress can purchase for a cool $400 via edressme.com.

Just like the runway model, Kelly Rowland wore the Versace criss-cross platforms.

Unlike the model, Kelly wore a black long coat over her luxe look straight from the runway.

Ironically so, Gisle Bundchen rock the same silk Versace jumpsuit in the designer's Spring 2008 AD campaign.

Last year Eva Mendes attended the launch party of the Campari Calendar 2008 in the same yellow Dolce & Gabbana Resort silk gown with the oversize bow under the bodice.

Serena Williams wore this metallic gray Rebecca Taylor tulip-hemmed dress at the launch party of her sister Venus Williams' new clothing line EleVen.

As reported by Black Style Central and O-H, Serena rock double-strapped Miu Miu heels.

Just like ShopBop's model, Serena wore silver shoes with her Rebecca Taylor cami dress.

ShopBop.com has this look listed for $262.00.

As to why her dress is wrinkled and the reason why her hair is in her face, I suppose that Serena's being Serena.

To be fair, the material of this dress is stretch silk and she gets a pass for upgrading her catwalk style last year.

BIRTHDAY STYLE: MARY J BLIGE

The Queen of Hip-Hop Soul Mary J Blige is celebrating her 37th birthday today.

I thought it'll be fun to reflect on Mary J Blige's ever-changing style as best seen in her vibrant music videos.

Mary set trends when she first stepped out in the scene. Remember the backwards baseball cap and the oversize jersey?

Mary's fashion was in your face and very much raw but in a good way.

Her hair may have been dye from red to orange and back but she maintained honey blonde locks throughout her career.

VICTORIA BECKHAM FOR MARC JACOBS AD

Two more print ads in support of Marc Jacobs Spring 2008 collection featuring Victoria Beckham surfaced online earlier today.

In the print ADs, Victoria is seen wearing a gray dress coming out a Marc Jacobs shoe box (well that's what that looks like to me) .

She's also photographed popping out of a Marc Jacobs bag.

Shot by Juergen Teller, Victoria and Marc produced this photo shoot this past November.

Victoria on her favorite pick from the Marc Jacobs print AD campaign: "Truth be told, I love them all. If I have to pick favorites, it’s the package series: me coming out of the box in the gray knit dress shot with the hat, as well as the image of the oversize shopping bag. Certainly, if you can’t get locked inside a Marc Jacobs store, then trapped inside a Marc bag has got to be the next best thing.”
