November 2-8

When Chanel Fine Jewelry hosted the annual Fete d'Hiver in New York City, we were prepared to see some stunning baubles. Blake Lively's necklace certainly made a statement, but it was the delicate "Ruban 1932" ring she wore that drove us to distraction. "I'm so attached to everything Chanel," admitted the Gossip Girl, on hand to help raise funds for the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center's Clown Care program. "But this pinky ring is just amazing!" And since it is a 3.01 cushion cut diamond (surrounded by 246 brilliant cut sparklers) set on an 18k white gold "ribbon" setting, it's also a fortune-Blake borrowed, but it can be yours for $270,000. If only, as We're Obsessed editor Megan Deem says, money were no object.

Donatella Versace is the clear winner this week for her red carpet coup at the MTV European Music Awards!

Both BeyonceandShakira stole the style show in stunning Versace looks-Beyonce in a futuristic mermaid-like satin gown and Shakira in a barely-there metal mesh number. It takes one tough designer to dress such fierce superstars, but Donatella is clearly up for the challenge. "I am a survivor," she told The New York Times when asked about the pending gloom on luxury fashion, "In my life I had no other choice than to become a strong person." And with continued support from fashion's most glamorous stars, it’s no doubt that Donatella will surely stay on top!

The Miraculous

, Victoria's Secret's newest bra, promises to give you a boost of two extra cup sizes, and it most certainly does-trust me. I had the pleasure of road-testing this miracle-worker yesterday and was shocked by (but pleased with!) my new curves. Seamless stitching makes it easy to wear under everything from sexy dresses to tank tops and the convertible straps make it super versatile. This push-up bra is as close as I am ever going to get to being a Victoria's Secret Angel like Doutzen Kroes (left)-and I will take what I can get!

Gossip Girl's Blake Lively admits

in the November issue of Nylonthat she dresses just like her character Serena van der Woodsen, and last night's episode backed up her confession! At the election party for Trip Van Der Bilt, Serena showed off her plunging neckline with a tight high ponytail and ropey braid, just like Lively wore at this year's Emmy Awards. Between Serena's vixen-like style and Lively's smoldering off-screen choices, it's only a wonder who gets inspiration from whom!

At a Lakers game on Friday night, Victoria Beckham showed-off a crumpled, wavy (and more casual!) version of her razor-sharp crop. We're used to tons of changes in Posh's hair-from her Twiggy-esque pixie to her piecey chin-grazing bob-but we never expected to see this edgy fashionista rock such an undone look. (We'll keep you posted if we spot her in flip-flops.)

Try on Victoria Beckham's many styles now!

It's been a year since Michelle Obama assumed her role as First Lady Elect in an unforgettable Narciso Rodriguez sheath (far left). Since that memorable November 4th, Mrs. Obama has made a habit of mixing avant-garde with Gap and playful accessories with classic silhouettes. So whether she's wearing one of her favorite J. Crew cardigans or an elaborately embellished Jason Wu dress (left), one thing is for certain-Michelle Obama has still got our vote for Most Fashionable First Lady.

See more of Mrs. O's looks from the last year!

How did you get your big break?
CB: This is my first film role. I drove a cab, worked in a bar, snowboarded, then one day I realized the one profession I can do is acting. So I made up a resume, got a headshot and went to see an agent in Vancouver. Six months later I was auditioning for New Moon.

InStyle.com: Tell us about your character Demetri's look.
CB: He's always covered up in luxury Italian winter wear, so I only needed to do the hair, makeup and contact lenses. It still took about two hours every morning.

InStyle.com: How would you describe your own style?
CB: Bohemian gypsy. I like to wear jewelry. I don't usually wear fitted stuff, but I'm going to Ferragamo today to shop amp#91;for the press touramp#93;.

InStyle.com: What can we expect to see in Eclipse?
CB: I saw some of the amp#91;filmingamp#93; with the vampires and the newborns when I was on set. It's going to be vicious.

Kate Walsh

, Whitney Port, Hayden Panettiere and Cat Deeley were only a few of the stars who came out to celebrate the launch of Jimmy Choo for H&M last night. The shoe, bag and ready-to-wear collaboration is nothing if not edgy and sexy, but each star managed to put her own style stamp on the collection. Walsh paired her studded strappy sandals with skinny black pants and a double-breasted blazer and finished the look with sparkly Lia Sophia earrings, while Port styled her leopard print ankle booties with a black minidress, leather motorcycle jacket and an oversize clutch. Whether you prefer a classic look or downtown edge, these Choos adjust to your personal style! Jimmy Choo for H&M hits stores November 14th (and we can't wait!).
