Haul Videos, the newest viral craze, is transforming your average shopaholic teenagers into mall-place moguls. It began as a simple form of fashion blogging, teens showing off their latest purchases via skype or other web video mediums. With more than 110,000 YouTube videos currently circulating, it has quickly become big business for numerous fashion brands. Teenagers reviewing products and merchandise, giving companies virtually free advertising.

Perhaps two of the phenomenon’s biggest stars are teen sisters from Tennessee, Elle and Blaire Fowler. The pair have produced videos of their fashion reviews that have been viewed 75 million times! The opinions of these gals is so popular, companies have begun delivering merchandise to their home for review via video. A watch company completely sold out of a watch purchased by the Fowler sisters within 24 hours of their review. The company received so much traffic to their website, it crashed.

Their success has landed them a photo shoot with Seventeen magazine and a pending partnership with YouTube, offering them a cut of all revenue generated from their Haul Videos. Not bad for a day at the mall!

Olympic figure skater Johnny Weir has been rejected from the “Stars on Ice” Tour because he is not family friendly, according to GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation). Radar Online reported earlier this week that Weir was not included in the only figure skating tour in the United States.  Weir spoke to Access Hollywood on Friday…

“It is for real…”I’ve never been invited to do Star on Ice before, which is the only figure skating tour in the U.S., and it’s disappointing that I can’t perform for my American fans… all because I’m not ‘family friendly’ enough.”

GLAAD had this to say on their blog: “To say that Weir is ‘not family friendly’ would be a clear jab at his perceived sexual orientation. Weir is extremely involved with his family.” The blog went on to say “Weir’s performance and costume style is sometimes considered flashier than those of other skaters, leading to questions about his perceived sexual orientation. While Weir has not officially announced his sexual orientation, he has garnered a significant amount of LGBT (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender) fans.”

Stars on Ice has responded to GLAAD and released a statement to RadarOnline.com saying “We are disappointed that there is untrue and inaccurate information being disseminated. “

After the peephole incident last July, ESPN correspondent Erin Andrews has been laying low, avoiding the spotlight. But, she must be tired of hiding…Erin and that semi-nude body of hers will be hitting the dance floor next week.

Erin was so concerned about the world seeing her body through a peephole, and now she will be putting it on display for the entire world in skimpy dance costumes that barely cover her unmentionables. Ahhh, the irony. Erin is just one of the eleven new cast members on ABC’s Dancing With The Stars. You can catch the new series, premiering next Monday.

Some stars chose to ditch their glamorous red carpet gowns and change into something a little more practical for the traditional Vanity Fair Party. Jennifer Lopez traded her stunning pale pink Armani for a chic black Gucci gown at the Vanity Fair after party.

Cameron Diaz dazzled photogs in her shimmering Oscar de la Renta gown but chose a one-shoulder cocktail from the Victoria Beckham collection for the Vanity Fair bash

Also attending the Vanity Fair soiree, Diane Kruger went from romantic to red hot. Her cream ruffled Chanel Couture gown was perfect for the red carpet, but the red-hot number from Calvin Klein is better suited for the after party.

Faviana is perhaps most famous for it’s ability to copy-cat red carpet styles and recreate them for much less than the designer originals. After Sunday’s Oscars, their design team got busy and replicated the stars’ styles, unveiling them this morning on NBC’s The Today Show. View the video

Queen Latifah sparkled in a Badgley Mischka design. The lilac one-shoulder gown was recreated at a fraction of the cost…just $298 by Faviana.

A bold look on the red carpet, Maggie Gyllenhaal (above) captivated photogs in a Dries Van Noten hand-painted print. The gown was made just for Maggie. Van Noten also designed her wedding gown. Faviana has fashioned Gyllenhaal’s Oscar look for it’s own line for a mere $258.

All recreated styles will be available in four to six weeks at Faviana retailers worldwide.

Seventeen Prom helps to narrow your search for the perfect prom gown, providing guidelines based on your body shape.

Extra Tall beauties are best suited in ruched styles (left). The gathered material hugs the body, accentuating those legs! Long legs are also well-showcased in gowns with high-low hemlines (right). The short front to show ‘em off and the long length in the back to balance.

For Petites, Seventeen recommends a mermaid style gown (left); also known as a trumpet skirt. I must say, I have to disagree with this one. Short gals will likely be cutting off a good chunk of that mermaid-style skirt. What a waste of money!

Another option,  is the oh-so-popular bubble skirt (right). Typically found on a short gown, this style is perfect for petites! A short gown in general is usually a good pick for the vertically challenged (elongates those legs!) as long as the gown hits at least three inches above the knee. Anything longer just looks matronly.

Curvy Girls can bring attention to the bust and shoulders with a one-shoulder gown (left). One shoulder strapped and the other bare, draws the eye up and is simultaneously slimming!

Also keep a look out fora-line styles, particularly the empire waistline (right). A tight fitting bodice that flares just under the bust line helps to camouflage all those curves you don’t want recognized while accentuating those you do!

Pear-shaped like the majority of women in the United States? The new trend, grecian styles, work well for us! Jeweled necklines that are typically thick and form a choker around the neck are the hottest trend for both casual and formal wear. Lucky us!

Tiered skirts with layers of fabric are also a plus. Maybe it’s the optical illusion created by so much fabric, but this style is a hip minimizer and bust maximizer…turning your pear-shaped body into the coveted coke bottle instantaneously.

Loving plastic, it’s fantastic! Mattel has immortalized the cast of the award-winning series, Mad Men. Don and Betty Draper, Roger Sterling and Joan Holloway will become dolls made of Silkstone (resembles porcelain). Of course, these barbies will be styled in iconic 1960s costumes with accessories true to their Mad Men characters, cigs and cocktails not included.

The dolls will retail for $75 each will be available at BarbieCollector.com and select retailers in July. You can catch sketches of the dolls on March 23, when the Season Three DVD box set premieres.

Michelle Obama’s oh-so-famous Inaugural Ball gown has been donated to the Smithsonian and will be unveiled in an exhibit tomorrow. The white, one-shoulder gown turned heads; launching a new fascination with first-lady fashion, as well as an obsession with bare arms. On the eve of the unveiling, MSN put together some interesting facts about previous first ladies and their Inaugural choices.

Mamie Eisenhower donned a pale pink gown and accessorized with a matching pearl-covered purse (3,456 pearls to be exact).

Perhaps one of the first White House fashionistas, Jackie Kennedy helped to design her own Inagaugural gown. While Kennedy’s successor, “Lady Bird” Johnson ordered her gown from a department store.

Pat Nixon re-used her Inaugural gown and wore it to numerous other White House events! Another repetitious wearer, Rosalynn Carter wore the same gown to her husband’s gubernatorial inauguration and to the presidential one a few years later. Nancy Reagan also got dual usage out of her Inaugural gown before donating it.

Barbara Bush loved her gown so much that she had a hard time giving it away!

Hilary Clinton went with a hometown designer for Bill’s first inauguration. Laura Bush did the same for George’s first.

Alright, so the Academy had their little shin-dig last night, inviting hundreds of Hollywood hotties to strut their stuff. And by now, you’ve seen all the best (and worst) dressed lists. You’ve viewed the perfectly posed pics on the crimson carpet and you probably noticed that it was…boring.

The stars played it safe. Perhaps they have wised up, and realized that seeing their faces splashed across magazine covers with cruel comments may not be the confidence booster they need. Nevertheless, it makes for a pretty ho-hum morning after. Mediocrity aside, there were a few that pushed the envelope.

Zoe Saldana’s snowcone-esque gown by Riccardo Tisci (Givenchy) is getting mixed reviews. The stunning, “Natalia” gown was plucked from his summer collection.  It is a strapless, chiffon, and shadow-dyed in various hues of purple. From a pale lilac bodice covered in crystals down to the bouffant hemline in a deep violet, this gown is being hailed as the best of the night by some, a red-carpet tragedy by others. Either way, you gotta hand it to her for courage. On a night when most stars blend into the background, the blue alien from “Avatar” shone bright.
