    The 35 Most Naked Dresses of All Time

    Naked dresses are perhaps the most impressive of all red carpet feats. While they may not always make the best-dressed list, they do require a certain breed of celebrity to pull off. Not only do you have to have the balls to risk a wardrobe malfunction, but you have to do it with enough confidence that you look fierce — not terrified — in the photographs. Take Naomi Campbell's appearance in Valentino's couture show during the spring/summer 2019 presentation. The legendary model gracefully strutted down the runway in a see-through gown with a ruffle skirt. (Click through the gallery for the NSFW photo).  Get the inside scoop on all your favorite celebrities with our FREE daily newsletter, InStyle Celebrity. Breaking news, relationship updates, hairstyle inspo, fashion trends, and more direct to your inbox! Let's not forget Rihanna’s infamous CFDA dress either. The girl rocked a completely sheer dress without a bra — and later remarked that her only regret was not wearing a bedazzled thong to match. That, my friends, is dedication. Then, there was the year 2015, when the Met Gala saw not one nor two but three naked dresses on the red carpet, all worn by Hollywood’s hottest A-listers. Jennifer Lopez, above, bared her famous curves in a custom Atelier Versace illusion gown. Beyoncé was nearly naked in Givenchy. And Kim Kardashian West almost looked modest in comparison in her sheer Roberto Cavalli dress, because no one’s getting naked without KKW joining in. Click through to see the best naked dresses of all time.

    The 5 Haircut Trends That Will Dominate 2020

    The beginning of the new year comes with the irresistible urge to start over fresh, which means it's a great time to get a haircut.  This decade's first big hair trends include looks at every length that can be tailored to your hair texture and personal style. For anyone with a blunt bob — the most popular haircut of the past few years — you probably already guessed that the cut will still be going strong into the next decade. But there will be a few tweaks. As seen on Kerry Washington, 2020's bob has textured, softer edges, and looks amazing whether you part it down the middle or off to the side.  RELATED: The 10 Hairstyles You'll See Everywhere This Winter But if you swear that 2020 is going to be the year you finally grow out your hair, let Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian's extra-long lengths be your inspiration. Or, you can get the look instantly with the help of some clip in extensions.  To help you figure out how to wear your hair in the new year, we've rounded up the five biggest haircut trends of 2020, so you'll be sure of what you want before you head to the salon in January.  VIDEO: The Five Biggest Haircut Trends of 2020

Jennifer Lopez took her East Coast style down to Miami for the week, stepping out on Wednesday for a chic shopping trip like only her majesty J.Lo can.

Clad in a plunging black bodysuit with lace trim (shop a similar look here), medium-wash skinny jeans with gold buttons lining the pockets, and sleek black Monika Chiang ankle boots, Lopez gave the Florida set a lesson in sexy street style.

Of course, Lopez accessorized with dark aviator shades and massive stud earrings—her go-tos, but she also added a gorgeous accessory we assume was worn for purposes of identification: a nameplate necklace spelling (what else?) “Jennifer.”

When J.Lo hits the shopping circuit, she doesn’t go unnoticed. Lest you have your doubts, just check her necklace and you’ll be reminded that Jenny from the Block is, indeed, in your midst.

This, my friends, is lesson #1 in learning to shop like the great Jennifer Lopez: Make Sure Everyone Knows Your Name.

J.Lo obviously has a lot to teach us about, well, life and everything in it, and certainly when it comes to shopping etiquette, Jenny from the Block is the unrivaled expert.

Behold, the many lessons we’ve learned by following Ms. Lopez’s example.

May your next shopping trip be as fabulous as J. Lo’s Snapchat filter game.

VIDEO: 10 of the Most J.Lo Instagrams Ever[brightcove:5086891785001 player_2]

Peace, love, and J.Lo.

Bring Your Crew

Jennifer Lopez, Queen of Everything, spent her Monday in Beverly Hills on a casual shopping trip. Being the low-key, fanfare-free outing that it was, the singer accessorized accordingly with a massive fur stole, a pair of fringed Christian Louboutin ankle boots ($539; barneys.com), and her signature oversized shades—you know, cazh…

Lopez, in typical Monday fare, strolled up to Barneys with a sizable posse in tow—a mega superstar is nothing without her on-call board of sartorial advisors (and bodyguards), of course. Without them, how would a fashion moment as glorious as Lopez’s legendary 2000 Grammys gown ever come to be?

Grab Some Arm Candy

Take us back to 2003, pop culture overlords! Oh, what a wonderful time that was. Though Queen Lopez typically steps out solo for her shopping trips these days, there is something undoubtedly glamorous about forcing your beau to tag along. (Bennifer [pt. 1] 4ever).

Pair Your Sweat Suit with a Birkin Bag, Cuz You're J.Lo 

Credit: Neil Mockford/FilmMagic

Casual attire is okay in moderation (you're still Jenny from the Block, after all), but make sure everyone remembers that you're also the HBIC by pairing a low-key look with a high-class accessory, like this red crocodile Birkin bag (here's a slightly more reasonable option from Saint Laurent: $2,890; neimanmarcus.com).

Bling it out, bling it out

Sure, step into a luxury store wearing a set of ultra-distressed jeans and a pair of Uggs and you'll probably get an eye roll or two, but flash a massive diamond and you'll have all the respect in the world. Ice, ice, baby!

Put Someone on Umbrella Duty

Credit: Trago/FilmMagic

What's the point of being rich and famous if there's no one to hold your umbrella for you? Whatever the weather gods have in store for your shopping trip, make sure you have someone on hand to act as your personal shield against the elements. You need to save your arm strength for dem bags.

Attempt to revive the poncho, because you have that power

Credit: Getty

If the poncho had a contemporary celebrity spokesperson, it would be J.Lo. No one has fought harder on behalf of ponchos everywhere, and while we can't see ourselves going poncho shopping in the near future, Ms. Lopez made (and continues to make) an excellent case for the '70s staple.
