Almost all celebs have a professional stylist--or two--who won't leave home without double stick tape to avoid nip slips. These pros know to dab white wine on still-wet merlot to prevent staining that perfect ensemble. And they always have convertible bras in their kits to banish visible straps on their famous clients.

And now the new Invisibelt (www.invisibelt.com) is becoming a must-have backstage at fashion shows and on the red carpet. Invented by former beauty editor and mom-of-one Kathy Kramer (who rocks a teensy waist and a juicy rear view), this adjustable clear belt (sizes 0-14; $19.99) is undetectable under fitted tops to give a super slim silhouette. "I invented the Invisibelt out of personal need. My pants were always a smidge too big in the waist and it wasn't practical to have every pair altered. Whenever I wore a belt the buckle created a bulky bulge under my top," she says. So celebs are just like us: We all want a whittled waist, not extra bulges! Off the record, Beyonce owns one. And as this picture says, that girl wears jeans like, well, a rock star.

The past month of Peaches Geldof's drug-infused existence has read like a handbook on "how to drive your father insane." In mid-August the 19-year-old debutant married some random musician named Max Drummey in a quickie Vegas ceremony -- during which the 23-year-old groom never bothered to take off his sunglasses.

And now Peaches is playing the seductress for racy lingerie maker Agent Provocateur -- after modeling for the brand in Vienna back in May, she's now posing half-naked, dangling cherries above the wanton mouths of her fellow female models. Scandal!

We're sure daddy is none too pleased about this latest batch of naughty behavior, but there's no denying that his daughter looks hot! It seems Peaches will make a fine replacement for Kate Moss fronting our favorite brand of sexy undies.

When I think of the increasingly popular phrase "hot mess", I think of someone like Bobby Trendy. Actually, that's not really true... When I think of "mess", I think of Bobby Trendy. Yup, that's a bit more accurate.

Bobby Trendy rose to D-list fame when he appeared on E!'s Anna Nicole Show as the late Ms. Smith's interior designer. At first it was kind of funny, watching this fellow don painfully pink outfits and enough lip gloss to shellac ten dinette sets. Then the show ended and Trendy faded into obscurity... or so the world wished. These recent pictures show that Trendy is still kickin', looking even more ridiculous than usual.

I honestly don't even know where to begin. Do I start with the pillow arms? The gift wrapping hair? The false lashes of doom? The bizarre addition of the DHL bag? Take your pick.

So many celebs these days have their own fashion lines. These sort of announcements barely make headlines anymore. Rachel Bilson is going to be yet another in a long line of starlettes who use their popularity to get them a gig designing clothes. She's hooking up with DKNY to create a line of jeans for the brand. They will be sold in stores, starting in September, under the name Edie Rose.

Reaching out to DKNY, Rachel contacted them to see if they would be interested in working with her. The company gladly accepted. The DKNY president said, "Our customer has a real emotional connection with Rachel and she's always on the best-dressed lists, so it seemed like such a win-win for us. Rachel has real personal style and she is very involved in every step. You can really see that in the collection."

Some celebrity fashion lines make absolutely no sense -- Hello, who in the world is going to buy clothes made by Avril Lavigne?!? But, Rachel Bilson is actually somewhat of a fashionista. Aside from the fact that's she's tiny, perky and adorable, she really never gets it wrong. Her personal style is cute and edgy, yet not over the top or skanky.

Browse through the gallery and tell me if you agree. Is she worthy of having her own line?

Most musicians know a good thing when they see it. And by "good thing", I mean "way to milk the cow completely bone-dry." Rihanna, riding the massive success of her single "Umbrella," is doing just that by joining forces with Totes to release her own line of -- you guessed it -- umbrellas. The Rihanna umbrellas don't look particularly different from normal umbrellas. There's a pink one with her name plastered on the side and a black one with pink frilly bits that reminds me of some of her outfits, but that's about the extent of their uniqueness. At least the line is not outrageously priced, hovering somewhere in the $18 area.

For originality's sake, I wouldn't mind seeing an umbrella that plays the "Eh eh eh eh" part of Rihanna's song every time it is opened, even though that would probably drive me insane. At least it'd be something new.

Beyoncé seems to be going through some sort of bizarre identity crisis. Not only is her lower body attempting to define itself a separate entity by experimenting with grandma legs, but at last week's BET Awards, B shamelessly flaunted her new robo-knight ways. The picture on the left is of Beyoncé on the red carpet wearing a fairly normal metallic dress with a not-so-normal metal belt, stripped straight from one of King Arthur's buddies. To the right is a photo of Beyoncé later in the evening, performing one of her songs as a half-naked C-3PO.

Actually, I normally wouldn't have paid much mind to Beyoncé's bizarre onstage get-up because, after all, performances often require rather dramatic make-up and costume. However, I was stunned to see that those tights weren't fashioned by Beyoncé's mother, like most of her costumes, but came off the runway! Shame on Balenciaga for luring Beyoncé to the dark side ... and by "dark," I mean "absurdly shiny."

Madonna was recently spotted out and about with her usual entourage, but for once, all eyes were not on her. This PopSugar article talked about Madonna's upcoming work with Justin Timberlake and included this photo. However, a quick look at the comments shows that everyone's more interested in the fellow next to Madge, sporting a super mustache and equally fierce kitten heels.

The gentleman is actually Eugene Hutz, frontman of New York band Gogol Bordello and Elijah Wood's co-star in Everything is Illuminated. Hutz is known for his mighty mustache and quirky sense of style, but I swear this is the first time I've seen him wear heels. I guess he's jumping on board the "men in heels" fad? He's filming some stuff for Madonna's short film, Filth and Wisdom, so maybe the heels are, like, training for the role or something.

As if Chanel's ridiculous $1,000 trash bag wasn't terrible enough, the Hefty look seems to have evolved into a wearable form... a wearable, furry form, no less. X17 has some photos of Ashley Olsen out-and-about the town, wearing this scary, shapeless mass. You'd think by now, the fashionistas of Hollywood would have learned that buying anything made of black and super-shiny material deserves a second thought prior to purchasing.

And, goodness, what kind of poor animal had to die for that furry faux pas?
