FiFi Fragrance Gossip - Mary J. Blige, Queen Latifah

Mary J. Blige definitely knows how to work a stage (I saw her live at MSG with Jay-Z earlier this year). But what does she know about perfume? We asked what her upcoming scent is like:

"It was soft, it was musky, it was floral, it was everything, I loved it." She seemed genuinely enamored.

The scent, My Life, is a collaboration with Carol's Daughter, a line that Blige is already involved in. The bottles are going to be super-luxe, and the name, of course, corresponds with Mary's album.

Head Games at the Derby

    Shielded from the derby jungle by a white veil, Brooke looks like she's wearing cupcake frosting.

    Never one for subtlety, Star was the view at this weekend's festivities.

    When Kim K. looks downright demure, you know something's off. Or it must be the Derby.

    The singer strikes again! With all due R-E-S-P-E-C-T, it appears a spaceship has landed.

    We think we've seen that hat before. Only it was a dress. In a John Hughes movie. (We also thought the hanging planter was part of the hat. Not a stretch.)

    Honey, I blew up the shower cap! There's nothing little about this Bow Peep look.

    Check out the horsing around on this dude's flower-adorned fedora.

    This just might be stranger than the original Twin Peaks. And maybe he should've considered a modeling career-balancing a book has nothing on this!

    This twisted sister isn't clowning around. We're sure Jerry Garcia would be proud, tough her headpiece is far from dead.

So, we don't know the first thing about horse racing and can't really comprehend why anyone would bet on a 50-1 horse (the odds of under dog horse and surprise Kentucky Derby winner "Mine That Bird"). But we did tune in to the 135th KD on Saturday... for the hats! They're so ridiculous and over the top, that we have to admit it's become one of our favorite spectator sports.

Okay, so a balloon animal headpiece might not fly outside the annual gathering of one-uppers, but don't let that burst your hat bubble! StyleList talked to hat designer extraordinaire, Eugenia Kim (eugeniakim.com) -- whose toppers have been worn by stars including Jessica Alba, Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton and Ashlee Simpson, who all opted for the "Muffy" equestrian cap, and Mary J. Blige (who wears EK's "Scarlett" hat on the cover of her multi-platinum album "Reflections - A Retrospective") -- about more realistic spring options.


StyleList: What is the hat for Spring/Summer '09?

Eugenia Kim: I would have to say that the hat for Spring/Summer 09 is our "MAX 1" straw hat (an ivory fedora with black ruched crystal mesh band). This hat is our number one best seller for the season, and it fits great on everyone! It even comes with other color options which makes it more 'wearable' and versatile.
