Forget whatever you think you know about little black dresses. As temperatures climb and hems rise, spring is all about the LWD (little white dress), and in just one evening, Lea Michele, Shay Mitchell, and Chelsea Kane sported three different iterations of the crisp warm-weather trend at last night's Academy screening of Glee and the ABC Family West Coast upfront.

Every year, the White House Correspondents Dinner brings the worlds of politics and Hollywood together under one fashionable Washington D.C. roof to dine with (and enjoy a speech delivered by) the President of the United States of America. Witty barbs are tossed around the room from the evening's designated host—who was Jimmy Kimmel this year—and everyone dresses up in their fanciest finery, aka black ties and gowns galore, usually of the more subdued variety. (Neon minidresses and/or jumpsuits made of wig hair should be saved for after-parties only.) This year, a bevy of beauties classed-up the evening in various shades of grey. Dakota Fanning and Zooey Deschanel both chose classic lady-gowns adorned in flowers, and Ginnifer Goodwin went for eco-friendly ruffles in the lightest, creamiest of grey.

What do you get when you gather high fashion, le cinema, downtown lovelies, and a gazillion roses into one stylishly spring bouquet? A Chanel-hosted party in honor of the Tribeca Film Festival in NYC! The "Artists Dinner" brought a bevy of bright young things to the Odeon restaurant in Tribeca to celebrate all things frock, film, and floral—literally—and everyone from actresses Camilla Belle and Liv Tyler to model Poppy Delevigne were there to toast a warmer season in their best flower-printed finery. What's more, these ladies rocked their girly ensembles with the freshest scents of gnarliness.

If you're able to sop up the drool and tear your eyes away from this lead image of Justin Bieber, Zac Efron, and David Beckham long enough to read this post, you're of stronger will than most of hot-blooded America. Somehow these three dudes are able to look both chiseled and a little rugged AND like total husband-material. How? Well, our theory is that Biebs, Zefron, and Becks all have one thing in common here: they're all rocking updated versions of the suave pompadour look.

Florence Welch on April 21, Nicole Richie on April 2, and Drew Barrymore on Jan. 25.

Go big or go home! Florence Welch, Nicole Richie, and Drew Barrymore proved that more is more when they showed off their bold, all-over print maxi dresses. We're REALLY into this head-turning trend, which all three ladies sported in slightly different ways. Florence showed up to an after party in Las Vegas last night wearing this AMAZE black and forest green Tadashi Shoji fall 2012 number. Her scalloped edges add a touch of daintiness to her daring look, and she wore no accessories (save a few rings) to take away from her statement dress. She twisted back her shiny red tresses into a low chignon, and we love how her hair complements her green dress perfectly. She matched some burgundy eye shadow to her deep maroon nails for a totally put together look. Nicole Richie showed support for her dad Lionel Richie by wearing a dress from her own Winter Kate fall 2012 line earlier this month. We know bright yellow is incredibly hard to pull off, which is why we give Nicole MAY-JUH props for looking like a vintage vixen in her bold rose print dress. We also love the side swept bangs paired with a bouffant and larger-than-life lashes.

We aaaaall know the '90s are back. From jumpsuits to roughed up denim to flannel shirts tied around waists to Jeremy Scott's entire 2012 fall/winter collection, the garments from the dawn of the Information Age are experiencing a revival of epic proportions, but now, thanks to Nicki Minaj, Azealia Banks, and Taylor Momsen, raver chic appears to be resurfacing in footwear, as well.

Nicki Minaj wears a leather harness while out in London, England.

About this time last week, we spotted Nicki Minaj wearing an outfit that can best be described as an arithmetic equation: sheer shirt + body harness - pants. It appears the formula has altered slightly, but the base of the sequence is still there. There remains a severe lack of pants, we're not sure what lies beneath the new addition of a squeaky looking Members Only jacket, and while there is still a harness involved, it has grown considerably. Perhaps Nicki reads the blog and really takes our trend pieces to heart which, you know, would be really flattering were it true. We just... IDK, we thought maybe we mentioned wearing these trendy harnesses with clothes underneath, not in substitution of them.

This past weekend, bohemian music-lovers unfurled in droves upon Indio, California for this year's first installment of the annual Coachella Valley Music And Arts Festival. Coachella first weekend brought amazing weather, a Tupac hologram, and of course, fabulous fashions. The pretty young things in attendance and gracing the stages like Rihanna, Azealia Banks, and Kat Graham turned it out with trendy crop tops, vintage tees, and touches of sheer.
CROP TOPS

If you're planning on spending the weekend in a desert, chances are good you're going to get a little hot. Naturally, crop tops were everywhere at Coachella. Seen both on stage via Rihanna's "PEACE" pull-on and Azealia's Beetlejuice-striped bralette and getting down in the audience like Vanessa Hudgens and Dree Hemingway's tiny tops, we forsee a major explosion for the belly-baring separates as temperatures rise. Just be sure to wear them with something high-waisted to balance them out!

How EXCITED are you guys to see Marvel's The Avengers?? Between Chris Evans's Captain America and Scarlett Johansson's sultry Black Widow (and Robert Downey Jr.'s everything always), we're beside ourselves with anticipation for this projected blockbuster. Last night, sunny Los Angeles hosted the Cali premiere of the action adventure flick, and along with expectedly swagged out cast, some of our favorite PYTs (specifically Kat Graham, Debby Ryan, Bella Thorne, and Shay Mitchell) turned it out on the red carpet in dark dark blue frocks. Trend alert!
