Few people go from starring in Glitter Barbie commercials to representing the house of Dior, but Mila Kunis isn’t like a lot of the actresses in her ‘genre.’ She’s probably best known for her comedic, one-of-the-boys vibe, but proved, via last year’s Black Swan, that she’s just as comfortable in the dramatic realm. Kunis channels some of the drama (without the crazy) in her new Lady Dior ads. Her Swan co-star, Natalie Portman, fronted the Dior Cherie campaign before taking a break from the public sphere to have her first baby (and issuing harsh words against John Galliano), but Kunis wears a new version of the bag made famous by actresses like Marion Cotillard and Grace Kelly. The campaign was shot by Mikael Jannson and will break in international magazines starting next month. Delphine Arnault told WWD that the brand is, “looking forward to a long relationship with her.” Kunis sounds OK with that, “I can’t say it was the hardest thing to do.”
Amber.Stardoll- We love Emma Roberts and her unique since of style. Even though her style is very creative, we noticed that she keeps one staple close at hand: her Zelig leather tote made by Tila March. The bag retails for around $596 we've spotted Emma carrying it everywhere. Which look looks best with Emma's Zelig It Bag?

- Both Evia Longoria and Katie cassidy sparled in this golden sequin dress from Alice + Olivia. Eva accessorized the dress with nude peep-toe heels and a classy updo while Katie matched it with ark patterned heels and loose curls, and we love the ways both of the girls match this dress! Who do you think wore this lovely Alice+Olivia creation best?

- We saw Nicky Hilton passing down the streets in West Hollywood yesterday in this rocky outfit. We must say that she can really makes the ripped jeans and a casual tank top to look very rock chic!

Wes Gordon Spring 12 Just three days into 2012 and already a handful of designers are emerging as the ones to watch this year. Correll Correll, Eighteenth, Haus Alkire, and Sunhee were all awarded the Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation award today, with a $25,000 grant going to each womenswear label. Joining them are Tim Coppens, Dezso by Sara Beltran, and Titania Inglis, who won for menswear, accessories, and sustainable design, respectively. While $25,000 might not seem like much in an industry where backpacks sell for $40,000, the Ecco Domani prize certainly pays off. Previous winners include Proenza Schouler, Rodarte, Alexander Wang, and Rag & Bone, among many others. It’s particularly impressive considering that this is just the 11th year that the Italian winemaker is giving out grants. What’s notable about this year’s recipients is just how varied they are—German-born sisters Daphne and Vera Correll launched Correll Correll in 2006, while South Korean designer Sunhee Moon introduced the first collection of her eponymous line just this past fall. The winners were selected from a pool of 200 applicants, all of which must have at least one retail account, with judges like Julie Gilhart, The Fashion Calendar’s Ruth Finley, and Neiman Marcus fashion director Ken Downing making the final decision. But it’s not just the Ecco Domani prize that’s shaping the list of up-and-coming designers in 2012. The Fashion Group International just named the finalists for its 15th annual Rising Star Awards, with Wes Gordon, Nahm, Nonoo, and Stacy Lomman among the labels vying for the title. The winner will be announced at a luncheon at the end of January, with men’s apparel, accessories, retail, and beauty awards also given out. Like the Ecco Domani winners, the Rising Star Award is another barometer of which designers to watch—Joseph Altuzarra took home the prize in 2010.

Erica Cerulo Sure, there are hundreds of different fashion-centric websites angling for our attention, but there are probably a dozen keeping us interested on a daily basis. The secret to Of a Kind is its simple formula: every week, Erica Cerulo (along with her partner Claire Mazur) choose one designer with whom they collaborate on a limited edition piece. They produce a maximum of 50 pieces of the result and feature the designer on their homepage to help promote the on-the-rise designers. We chatted with Illinois-born Cerulo to learn some of her other secrets.
ELLE: What is your favorite smell?
EC: Lilacs. There were massive lilac bushes in the yard of the house I lived in until I was five, and I delivered bouquets of the flowers to my neighbors. I don’t really remember it, but my sense is that it was adorable.
ELLE: What do you consider the epitome of happiness?
EC: A night with no plans, a home-cooked meal, six episodes of an addictive TV show, the BF, and a couch.
ELLE: How do you define luxury?
EC: Something you don’t need and therefore want more.
ELLE: What is the last dream you remember?
EC: I never remember my dreams! So I’m going to have to say that I don’t remember the last one that I remembered.
ELLE: What’s your favorite childhood memory?
EC: My preschool was called Big Top and at the end of the year we had a circus. I was a tightrope walker, which meant performing a routine on a line of masking tape and—most importantly—wearing a purple satin leotard with pink sequins. It was sick.
ELLE: What’s the last book you read and loved?
EC: Oooh, loved—the pressure is on. I really connected with The Marriage Plot. I know people have mixed feelings, but everything about it (OK, except the ending) spoke to me, especially the aggressively intellectual classroom scenes at the beginning. They were very reminiscent of University of Chicago, my alma mater.
ELLE: Describe your home’s aesthetic.
EC: Bunny-approved. My Holland lop, Patsy Stone, runs the show around here.
ELLE: What are your vices?
EC: Prosciutto, cabs, and movies about high school.
ELLE: Describe yourself in five words or less.
EC: I am myself. How’s that?
ELLE: What possession will you never throw away?
EC: A gold chain of my dad’s—it’s plenty sentimental and men’s jewelry always looks rad on girls. Duh.

H&M dominated the mass collaboration category in 2011 with its Versace extravaganza and news of an upcoming partnership with Marni and Sofia Coppola, but Target’s kicking things off in 2012. Yesterday they released a first look at their collaboration with Jason Wu as well as the line’s ad campaign. It features a pink and yellow dress with black trim, as well as Milu, the cat who played muse to Wu’s Target collection. The clothes and bags hit Target next month, but next week the mega-store will reveal what they’re calling “the next chapter in Target’s design partnership model.” Though details are scarce, WWD reports that it will definitely vary from the Go International concept they started with, even extending into food categories. Mario Batali for Target anyone?

The Row fall 2011; Imaxtree Ballet slippers may have some competition with the recent popularity of lounge loafers. These shoes have come on the scene with a vengeance and taken androgyny to a new fashionable level. Everyone from Alexander McQueen to Sam Edelman have contributed to the trend and have brought studs, prints, and tassels to the table. Here’s what to consider before you delve into this trend: Longevity: Not new to the style scene, the loafer has been around since Hugh Hefner debuted them in the ’70s. We never thought we’d tale a cue from the Playboy patriarch, but even the most unpredictable of celebrities end up being trendsetters. For those of us who can’t decide between the flat and the oxford, this is a neutral combination of the two that is sure to be around for years to come. Wearability: If there’s one thing that these shoes possess, it’s comfortability. These shoes are literally made for walking. Or lounging. And although we all love a good heel, a great stylish and practical flat is like winning the lottery. You can follow in the footsteps of the always fashionable Mary-Kate and Ashley and their brand The Row and pair them with mens-like business wear, or you can throw them on with a simple jeans and T-shirt for running errands. Dressed up or down, they work like a charm. Personality: Whether you’re a plain Jane or love to experiment with prints, there’s a loafer out there for everybody. Studs, velvet, leopard, or patent, whatever your hearts desire. Although they may come off a bit grandfather-esque, it all depends on the style of the shoe and yours. Save vs. Splurge?: Save. Although the studded Louboutin loafers may be tempting, some of the splurges run close to $1,000, and who has that kind of money? There’s no need to break the bank to nab a pair of these shoes. Save options:
