Do you have a special relationship with your bag? We do. It's such a personal accessory! It stashes all your private and essential stuff, from makeup to sneakers to parking tickets. So for the latest Show Us Your Style, we headed to Washington Square Park in New York to find out what kind of bags YOU trust with your most important items. There we met Allison, who wears a burgundy crossbody bag by Free People because she can't stand carrying totes. Jackie, a Zac Posen intern, bought her Aldo bag after seeing it on a model at a casting call. And Maya scored her picnic basket-inspired bag at the Brooklyn vintage shop Odd Twin. "I do a lot of vintage shopping in general because it's unique and cheaper and it has more of a story." Yes, girls, BAG IT UP.

There's something about Lady Gaga fans — excuse us, Little Monsters — that gets us going. We're obsessed with her followers almost as much as we love her. They're EVERYWHERE. She has 12,543,369 fans on Facebook (and counting!), her Tweets send Monsters worldwide reeling, and GagaDaily.com is a go-to Internet site. That's why we had to see Little Monster style with our own eyes when Gaga swung through New York last week. And just like Gaga herself, the Little Monsters we spotted took all of her enviable qualities like energy, creativity, eccentricity, and self-expression and channeled it through themselves (including quite a few people who wrapped themselves in caution tape from the "Telephone" video). As Gaga fan Jonathan told us, with a Diet Coke can roller in his hair: "She inspires me to the fullest. I think I'm going to idolize her for the rest of my life." Watch the video and see for yourself.

Editor's Note: MTV Style is obsessed with style blogs that show off your outfits. Every Thursday, starting today, we'll pick our favorite looks from the week and show them off here. Want to submit your blog? Send us a note at style@mtv.com or message us on Twitter @mtvstyle!

-----------------------------

Remember the hilariously amazing moment in The Devil Wears Prada when editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly comments on spring fashion: "Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking." Well, for us, sometimes floral patterns worn different ways can be groundbreaking. That's why we took to the Internet this week to find fantastically fresh looks using flowers from style bloggers. Our top three:

1. Rhiannon Leifheit of Liebemarlene Vintage; liebemarlene.com, @liebemarlene_v.
This Atlanta-based self-proclaimed David Bowie-fanatic opted for a white shift dress patterned with bright blooming buds of pink and coral. She paired it with edgy black booties and a D-I-Y floral wreath, making the whole look cheeky, yet charming, in a garden party way.

2. The Stylish Wanderer; thestylishwanderer.blogspot.com, @StylishWanderer.
This teen blogger (who also writes for chictopia.com) opted to showcase her florals on top, with painted brushstroke flowers in colorful hues that popped against black. We love how the Los Angeles-based fashionista pulled the green out of the blouse by wearing it with awesome Marc by Marc Jacobs neon sandals.

3. Laëtitia Wajnapel of Mademoiselle Robot; mademoisellerobot.com, @MelleRobot.
The London-based Laëtitia Wajnapel of Mademoiselle Robot sported a black and pink flower printed dress with a denim vest, showing us the punk side of petals.

We're more than a little addicted to shoes. (Click here if you don't believe us!) That's why for our latest edition of Show Us Your Style, we hit the streets to find out what shoes you're wearing this summer. And we found a big variety out there. We caught up with platform-shoe lover Angelique, who showed us her four-inch heels by Lisa for Donald J. Pliner (we found them for $338 online). "I love platform heels because they're very comfortable and I can wear them all day," she told us. We also found leather motorcycle boots (yes, even in the summer) and cheap $20 sandals. Plus, we spotted Mikey, an aspiring fashion publicist, who admitted his new addiction to Creative Recreation sneakers. We feel you, Mikey. Embrace your shoe addiction!

At MTV Style, we want to know what YOU'RE wearing. Sure, we get inspiration from our favorite stars, but how does that reflect your style? So, we decided to take it to the streets and find out. Every week we'll profile a different look, from concert fashion to trends. (Yes, we'll pop up in line at concerts! And we'll interrupt your conversations on the street to call you out if you look good!) Let's kick it off now...

When Jordin Sparks performed at the Nokia Theater in New York City a few weeks ago, we checked out the style of her fans. We caught up with concert-goer Stephanie, who bought new shoes for the concert for $18, while another fan Fabian wore $9 kicks he bought in Jamaica, Queens. We also found out that a lot of her fans are inspired by her look. "I think she's fun, edgy, urban," a fan named Janis said. See these styles and more in the video below. And tell us, do you like their style?

I love these two as a couple. What a festive way to celebrate two important events in their life. Mariah looks like a dream.
