Save the Queen! may be lurking just beyond your realm of fashion awareness. Perhaps you've seen them cited in the occasional magazine, or on a website detailing what a particular celebrity is wearing. Their shops are only located in Florence, Paris, and Rome.

Fortunately, they were having a show last time we stopped at The Plaza in New York City. We got a good look at their inventive and exciting designs and wanted to tell you all about it!

Yes. That's J.R. Ewing in lederhosen. He never could resist a hat, be it cowboy or loden hut.

We could almost forgive Larry Hagman for this getup. He's in Germany for Oktoberfest, the beer festival immortalized in such film classics as Beerfest and Oktoberfest, and when in Rome...or Munich, right? Plus, he's the beloved Major Anthony Nelson from I Dream of Jeannie!

However, as you can see, the nether regions of his short pants appear to have a couple of openings. And he's using that area as a hand warmer, in a way that is similar to the device ladies use called a muff.

If he's doing what we think he's doing, we're surprised he doesn't look happier. Also, we hope he washes his hands before eating.

Until recently most Americans knew Smart Cars in the limited context of European vacations. Nearly getting run over in Rome, admiring their ability to navigate medieval cobblestone roads in France. Perhaps a sighting or two in the wilds of Canada.

The cute, practical and energy efficient two seaters finally became available in the states this year, and their popularity in cities is soaring. The waiting list, while not as long as for the fabulous electric Tesla Roadster, it's still pretty long.

We're afraid that this video will make them even more popular, but not in a good way. Imagine the least eco-friendly thing you could do a car. Make it a monster truck, right? Outrageous waste of gas, pointless dirt circling, loud distressing noises to upset the local wildlife. What could be more fun?!

The video appears to be from somewhere in the UK. While the commentary is hard to make out, the accent sounds vaguely English, or perhaps Scottish, going by the "tartan" emblazoned across the sad little Smart Car body perched atop monstrous, ginormous tires.

Looks like we don't have to be quite so embarrassed by NASCAR now.

It only stands to reason that, at a photocall for her new movie, Get Smart, Anne Hathaway would look smart, and she absolutely does. She is sleek and polished, but still manages to look approachable and friendly -- not a look everyone can carry off.

Why should you want this look? Well, just think about occasions where you want to look gorgeous, but not over the top; professional, but not standoffish -- this is the look you need. And we're going to tell you how to get it!

After an intense jet-set themed competition that sent the squeaky-voiced Stacey Ann home, the America's Next Top Model contestants will be heading to Rome this week for their next major challenge.
