Wolford Dania Tights

How can I dress warmly while on a date in winter, but still look sexy?
—Leona, via the
Ask Style inbox

Style Spy Says: Berry

Two words: Textured legwear. You can't do much about having to wear a coat, but eventually, one would hope, you'll take it off, unless your date plans on taking you camping, which, seriously, I wouldn't wish that on anybody.

Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning, Nikki Reed, Ashley Greene

This Turkey Day, we're giving thanks for the Twilight sagaand not just for its dreamy vamps and shirtless werewolves. We're also thankful for its slew of stylish starlets. From Kristen Stewart's rebellious and sometimes surprisingly feminine ensembles to Dakota Fanning's age-appropriate and elegant outfits, we've scoured the Web to help you get their looks without taking a bite out of your savings. Sexy arm candy? Sorry, but you're on your own there. Unless, of course, cardboard cutouts of Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson can fill the void. They can't hug you back—but, man, are they nice to look at!

Lauren Conrad

Lauren Conrad is constantly sharing her fashion and beauty tips on the red carpet. So why not cash in on her expertise?

That's exactly what the reality star is doing with Lauren Conrad Style. The book, which will be published by Harper Collins next fall, will feature exclusive photos of LC and a play-by-play on how to achieve the 23-year-old's chic, California girl style.

"I am really excited to write a style guide," Lauren says. "When you wear clothes you feel good in, it shows in everything you do. I know this guide will offer simple, practical tips to help anyone look fabulous."

And if it's anything like her first novel, it's bound to be a bestseller—as long as this look doesn't make it into the book.

You don't have to wait for the guide to dress like LC. Get her looks—including the trendy blazer she wore at last night's Samsung Behold II launch party—for less in mystyle's Lauren Conrad: Shop Her Style! photo gallery.

Hair Fix Dry Shampoo

Miracle Product: Hair Fix Organic Dry Shampoo and Vegan Applicator Brush; $19.95, $15.95.

They Say: The powder absorbs oil, masks odor and adds volume to unwashed hair. It comes in three shades (brown, black & white) to help disguise thinning areas. Use the brush for easy application. 

We Say: Keep reading for reviews from Style staffers!

Style Spy Says: Berry

Pros: My hair held it's pony tail better than normal and it didn't get greasy. 
Cons: The brush applicator was a waste of plastic. Impossible to use!

Nicole Richie, Kerry Washington, Joss Stone

Mystyle Style Class: Au Courant

TREND: Foliage-inspired fashion

WHO'S WEARING IT: Nicole Richie, Joss Stone and Kerry Washington

HOW TO WEAR IT: Fall is the perfect time to branch out with an homage to the lovely leaf. Frond-shaped earrings are a really easy way to incorporate this perennial earthy trend into your everyday look. If you're shopping for a leaf-printed dress, we suggest you opt for one with seasonally appropriate long sleeves. The stars in sunny SoCal might be comfortable with bare arms in autumn, but not everyone can be so lucky. Brrr!

Lady Gaga

Is there any way to adapt any of the looks in Lady Gaga's new "Bad Romance" video without looking completely insane?
—Malia, via the Ask Style inbox

Style Spy Says: Berry

While I cannot recommend purchasing a pair of 10-inch, bedazzled cartoon hooves, I do see some workable aspects to designer Alexander McQueen's work. And that's who we're dealing with, really. His clothes are all over Lady Gaga's video for "Bad Romance." As an ordinary person, you're technically out of luck, at least for a few more months; the McQueen looks presented in "Bad Romance" (and in McQueen's latest fashion show), were for Spring 2010; they aren't even all that available for mere mortals like us until the rainy months.

Davi Skincare Products

Look as radiant as ever this winter with luxury skincare line Davi. The four-piece collection is gloriously fragrant thanks to a unique blend of grape and fermented wine extracts, green tea, raspberry, black currant, bilberry, rosemary and olive leaf.

Our fave? It's a tie between the Moscato D'Oro Purifying Cleanser and the Le Grand Cru Face Cream (there's also a Harvest Mist Toner and Vine Fresh SPF 30 Lotion). They not only made our skin feel instantly refreshed and smooth, they also made it appear brighter. It was as if we had just gotten a facial!

Experience it for yourself (they have a men's line, too!) when you use mystyle's 10 percent discount.

White House Black Market Red Velvet Jacket

What can I do to get the popular vamp look without overdoing it?
—Jessica, via the
Ask Style inbox

Style Spy Says: Berry

Vampire mania isn't going anywhere, especially with the second installment of the Twilight saga, New Moon, coming out on Friday. For those who don't like it, too bloody bad! It's even spilled into the style world. When the dark trend is done subtly, it can look dead sexy. Otherwise, piling on too many vampy elements will make you look like a Hot Topic employee.

Chloe Sevigny, Eva Mendes
Mystyle Style Class: Au Courant

TREND: Crystal-encrusted tops

WHO'S WEARING IT: Eva Mendes and Chloë Sevigny, both in Miu Miu looks from the spring runway

HOW TO WEAR IT: Diamonds aren't every girl's best friend. If you hate digging through your jewelry box, try an embellished top instead. At last night's MOCA 30th Anniversary gala, stars shined in intricately bejeweled designs that required no jewelry except for a ring or simple pair of studs. Just stick to one crystal-studded item per outfit. Head-to-toe gemstones only worked on Miuccia Prada's fall runway.

Dr. Elena Bodnar

Holiday bra discussion usually centers around Victoria's Secret's diamond creations. (This year Marisa Miller gets the honor of wearing the $3 million Harlequin Fantasy bra.) Extravagant decadence, however, doesn't protect you from the swine flu. Dr. Elena Bodnar's soon-to-be released creation does.

The Convertible Bra-Mask is designed to break in half, providing two cups to protect against harmful toxins. Bodnar created it after the Chernobyl nuclear accident, wanting a safety product that was "simple, economical and always on you."

Why you couldn't just carry a disposable surgical mask in your purse is beyond us. And who really wants to do an impromptu striptease in public? Not to mention the leverage this could give men if they're caught sniffing a woman's lingerie!

And no, this isn't a Friday the 13th prank. That's Bodnar in the pic above, winning an Ig Nobel Prize for her invention last month. Seriously.

Blake Lively, Tyra Banks, Charlize Theron
Style Secret

TREND: Cap-toed pumps

WHO'S WEARING IT: Blake Lively, Tyra Banks and Charlize Theron

HOW TO WEAR IT: The classic pump gets a fresh update with just a dip of contrasting color at the toe. Follow in Tyra's and Charlize's fashionable footsteps and show off the statement shoes in a cocktail dress with a high hemline. Otherwise, they'll get lost underneath your frock's fabric (ahem, Blake).
