We'll be honest: we're not what you could call high-fashion experts. We didn't know what Manolo Blahniks were before Sex and the City, we (still) go out in public in Juicy Couture sweatpants and we think "black tie optional" are the three scariest words in the English language (right behind John & Kate).
But just cause we don't shop designer (at least, not til Paris Hilton hands over her credit cards), doesn't mean we don't know good style when we see it. And with all the red carpet do's and don'ts out there, we thought we'd give a shoutout to three celebs who (almost) always get it right. Take a look at three high-profile gals who aced Style 101, then check out MTV's new show, Styl'D (this Sunday, at 10pm!) to see more famous fashonistas and meet the stylists behind the stars.
Nominee No. 1: Leighton Meester. Stylish but edgy, this fashion-forward Gossip Girl star knows when to go classic glam -- and when to push the envelope/lower her hemline. (Hmm, wonder what Upper East Sider Blair Waldorf would say about that silver micro-mini!?)
Nominee No. 2: Nobody wears leather, lace or floor-length couture like Victoria Beckham. The former Spice Girl has gone from pop star to pop culture icon, and she's look fab every step of the way. No wonder she caught David Beckham's eye (and, more importantly, his hand).
Nominee No. 3: You probably know Rachel Bilson from The O.C., but the real-life Rach is just as adorbs (and not nearly as high-maintenance) as the chic, geek-lovin' Summer Roberts. Bonus: Bilson's also waaay too smart to go through that greasy, I-stopped-showering-after-college phase. Viva la haircare!)
+ Who's got the best all-around style? Take the poll and tell us which of these fab three is always dressed to impress!
+ Wanna get schooled in style? Watch the Styl'D trailer, plus meet the junior assistants and senior stylists at the world-renowned Margaret Maldonado Agency. (You may not know them, but TRUST us -- you've already seen their work!)
