Even if you're totally landlocked, have never stepped on a surf board in your life, and think that "Hang Ten" is a new type of nail art, it doesn't matter. It's time to step outside and soak up the sunshine! Summer is here, and with it a slew of surf-inspired duds. Emma Watson, Jaime King, and Miranda Kerr have all channeled Blue Crush and put their own chic spin on these beachy staples. While the trend may have history on the beach (not to mention, in Lindsay Lohan's new film), but now surfer gear has officially gone high fashion. It started a few seasons ago on the runways of Proenza Schouler and Rag and Bone, but now it's infiltrated the red carpet. who better to kick off the trend than Miss Watson, who rocked new designer BROOD to the MTV Movie Awards earlier this month? The Perks of Being a Wallflower star totally killed it on the red carpet in her peplum frock, splashed with a watercolor-esque marble print. We loved it SO much, we wrote an entire post dedicated to it, and it's worth a second shoutout.

Get Kirsten Dunst, Katy Perry, And Ashlee Simpson's Flirty Floral Headbands!

Ladies, it looks like springy floral headbands are officially a thing, and to be honest, we couldn't have planned a more on-season trend if we tried! Kirsten Dunst, Katy Perry, and Ashlee Simpson have all sported dainty flower hair accessories as of late, which is a totally fresh take on the floral crown look (à la Lana Del Rey). And YES, the two are different! Crowns made of flowers are perfect for music festivals and fancy photo shoots, but we like how these ladies sported a more wearable version of the trend. Kirsten Dunst wove a gold and pearl flower headpiece into her braided updo, which matches perfectly with her white floral appliqué frock. Love! Katy stepped out in a '90s-inspired red dandelion print dress and studded motorcycle jacket ensemble, but added a touch of softness with her white rose headband. Ashlee Simpson looked all-out springy in her sheer white dress and twiggy headband, but we can't help but think—where can we snatch up one of these cute hair pieces for ourselves?

Katy Perry's 3D film extravaganza Part Of Me hits theaters this Fourth of July weekend (July 5 to be exact), so as is customary for Miss Perry (she can never get enough of a theme), she and her team put together an appropriately festive promotional poster. There are two versions of the flyer (and you can vote for your favorite on Twitter!), but on both versions of this movie teaser, Katy wears head-to-toe Wildfox Couture - a slouchy "Born on the 4th of July" cropped sweater and pink-and-white printed "Bright Star" rodeo shorts. Set against a night sky of exploding fireworks, Katy looks sweet and summer-ready in this star spangled outfit.

Not that we really needed an excuse to go shopping or anything, but thanks to Chloe Moretz, Crystal Reed, and Kiernan Shipka, we're experiencing a BIG urge to throw out all of our dark winter clothing and fill out closets with sunshine-y solids. After all, this trio of actresses looks so fresh and chic at MaxMara's cocktail party last night in Los Angeles, wearing a rainbow of seasonal dresses. The event's guest of honor Chloe Moretz (who was recently named the Italian fashion house's Face of the Future) wore a turquoise MaxMara 3/4-sleeved shift dress. The bright hue works perfectly paired with classic beige pumps (with a peek of yellow) and natural makeup. But even with her uber- bright outfit, Chloe didn't let things get too girly- she added a swipe of dark nail polish for a slight edge, and we're making mental notes to do the same. She was the star of the night, and let's be real: Chloe Moretz definitely looked the part.

Well, this is definitely one way to make sure that you'll never have to ask for directions: just wear them on your body. And while we doubt that's what Katy Perry had in mind when she sported Carven's amazingly intricate map-printed shirtdress in London yesterday, we've got to admit-the idea is still kind of awesome. The singer was in town for a surprise appearance (!) to promote her new film, Katy Perry: A Part Of Me and looked totally chic, wearing the graphic frock over tights and paired with black leather creeper shoes. She looked SO cute, in fact, that we've scoured internet and rounded up other geography-inspired pieces to copy her outfit. You're welcome!

We don't wanna be all, "We called the metallic trend!" but we totally called the metallic trend. Nikki Reed, Kristen Stewart, Crystal Reed, and Christina Ricci shined on the MTV Movie Awards red carpet in summery AND shimmery ensembles. Nikki Reed looked like a golden goddess in her beaded Randi Rahm shift dress. She paired her short-sleeved stunner with a leopard print clutch and gold peep-toe heels, while keeping her makeup soft and sultry. K Stew KILLED it in a bold yellow, metallic gray and purple Guishem frock, pointy black Christian Louboutin pumps, and a Repossi triple band cage ring. She let her chestnut waves run wild (YUS) and finished her look with a seriously smokey eye and nude lips.

Who Will Shine On The MTV Movie Awards Red Carpet This Year?

OMG, guys! It's almost here! The 2012 MTV Movie Awards are THIS SUNDAY, and we couldn't be more excited. Over the course of the past week, we've taken you through some of the biggest fashion trends to flock to the golden popcorn, from mini-dresses to prints and patterns. Our absolute favorite red carpet fad of recent years, though, has to be sparkles, sequins, and shards - the glitzy, embellished frocks that caught, reflected, and refracted light down the step-and-repeat. Still a relatively new trend (our first example is Sarah Jessica Parker's glittery black mini from 2008!), we've seen it explode over the past year with a whopping nine starlettes showing up to the 2011 Movie Awards in shimmery shifts.

The 2012 MTV Movie Awards are right around the corner (this Sunday, June 3!). Along with hilarious hijinks, blockbuster parodies, and the congregation of Hollywood's hottest stars, it also means a veritable PARADE of exemplary summer style will soon hit the MTV red carpet. Our freshly announced Special Style Correspondent Kat Graham will be on-hand to cover the breaking fashion news of who is wearing what as it unfolds, but judging from the trends of Movie Awards past, it can't hurt for us to do a bit of pre-carpet predicting!

Guys, isn't it summertime? *finds nearest window* Yep, it's totally shorts and tank top weather, but despite the rising temperatures, Lea Michele, Jessie J, and Lily Collins kept their looks dark and demure at last night's Glamour Women of the Year Awards. Lea Michele opted for a winter chic off-the-shoulder shimmery midnight blue Zac Posen mermaid-shaped gown with giant Lorraine Schwartz dangling jewels. The Glee star pulled her hair back into a simple ponytail and added tons of drama around her eyes. She swept some bronzer on the apples of her cheeks and chose a nude lip for a clean, slightly-sun-kissed-in-the-dead-of-winter look. Jessie J also went the dark route in a shredded black Julien Macdonald frock with killer gold and black peep-toe booties. She sported kohl-rimmed eyes with a glossy lip and angular brows. She slicked her deep-parted raven locks back into a low side bun and sported no-nonsense nude stiletto nails for a seriously grown-up look.

Will Mini Dresses Dominate The MTV Movie Awards Red Carpet Once Again?

DUDES. The MTV Movie Awards are almost here, and you know what that means—tons of red carpet ensembles for us to fuh-reak out over! We can only imagine what our fashion-y faves will wear on the big day (June 3!), but thanks to trends that have shown up on the Movie Awards red carpet time and time again, we have some serious sartorial guesses to make before Sunday rolls around. Why? Because 1.) It's fun and 2.) We will find any excuse to be right about something. JK! (Sorta.) First off, we need to talk about those forever-on-trend mini dresses. It seems like celebs want to start off their summer wardrobe with a bang, and lots of ladies opt for a shorter-than-short frock paired with sky-high heels and effortless hair. And when we say lots of ladies, we mean lots of ladies. From Kristen Stewart's safety pin Balmain dress last year to Victoria Beckham's zebra body-con frock (and hot pink bra) in 2007, there certainly hasn't been a shortage (heh) of super short mini dresses. In fact, we have 40+ examples (!!!) of these cropped frocks all bundled up in a little nice package for y'all. (Psst, you're welcome.)
