![Spl101987 001[1] Star Style Wars: Leighton Meester Vs Blake Lively](http://www.thefashionpolice.net/images/6a00d8341c873353ef011570aa0200970b.jpg "Spl101987_001[1]")
This picture is actually a couple of weeks old, but we haven't had a Star Style War for a while, and this is one we're particularly interested in the outcome of, because of the two of them, one appears to have forgotten her pants and the other… is wearing a play suit.
One of them must emerge triumphant in this round of Star Style Wars, though, and it's up to you, our readers, to decide who it is: Leighton Meester or Blake Lively. Who's the best dressed? Place your votes in the poll you'll find under the jump, and if you feel like leaving a comment to explain your choice, so much the better!

Love it.

Is ANYONE making clothes that don't have holes in them, these days? Everything seems to have to be ripped, shredded, or otherwise full of holes at the moment, and it's making it kinda difficult for those of us who prefer our clothes NOT to give us weird tan lines to shop.
From this, you can probably gather that The Fashion Police aren't fans of the "missing parts" look. We're putting these Boutique trousers up On Trial, rather than just throwing them straight into jail, however, because we know this look is pretty much everywhere right now, and we know a lot of you ARE fans of it. So, let's put it to the test: are these trousers a Crime of Fashion, or should we just suck it up and accept that this is the way people like to dress now?
If you're voting for the latter option, they're £30, and you can buy a pair at Topshop.

This dress comes in both black and white. We like both but we thought the paler colour was a little more summery, so it's the one that got our vote for Dress of the Day. It's described on the Yoana Baraschi website as a "party dress", but it could easily be dressed down for day wear too – the sash is removable, if you'd like it to look a little less fussy, and it's $410 from here.

![Spl102750 005[2] Random Celebrity Fashion Moment of the Day: Katy Perry in a silver mini dress and Louboutins in Japan](http://www.thefashionpolice.net/images/6a00d8341c873353ef01156fb47b36970c.jpg "Spl102750_005[2]")
They say you should never mix your metals, but when you’re Katy Perry, these so-called “rules” don’t apply. (And actually, we’re not so sure they apply to the rest of us, either.)
Here she is at the new H&M branch in Harajuku, Tokyo last night, helping promote the company’s new line of AIDS awareness clothes. We’ don’t think the silver dress is part of it, but hey, you never know. Would you buy it, if so, readers? What do you think of Katy’s shiny metallics here?

We have to confess that the world of men's fashion is something of a mystery to us, so we're hoping some of our male readers can help us answer an Unsolved Mystery that was brought to our attention today: why would you need a hood on a shirt?
For the sake of clarity, the shirt is not padded, or insulated in any way – it's just a cotton shirt, so we don't think the hood is for warmth. What's it for, then? And would you wear it (if you're a man) or buy it for someone (if you're a woman)?. Answers in the comments box, please!
Oh, and if you DO want to buy it, it's $60 and you can get it here.

And here we were, thinking Crocs were probably as bad as it was going to get, plastic-shoe-wise.
These are the result of a collaboration between Lacoste and Zaha Hadid, and while, granted, the actual shoe itself isn't quite as bad as a Croc, the thick strip of plastic winding its way up the leg takes these into a whole other league: and it's not a league we particularly want to join. To quote an oft-used phrase here at The Fashion Police, "Think of the tan lines!" Also: think of how that cold plastic would feel against your skin!
We're going to pass, but if you can't wait to wind that plastic up your leg, you're gong to have to wait until July, which is when these will be released. Visit the Lacoste website for more information.
