"Although I have my doubts regarding Blake Lively's claim that she doesn't use a stylist, I can't say enough positive things about her fashion choices in 2012. From the stunning Zuhair Murad gown (above) at the "Savages" premiere to her custom yellow Gucci number, Blake truly showed she has an eye for picking out pieces that suit her (enviable) frame. And although we haven't seen [...]

"I chose Leigh Lezark (above in Chanel) because she can wear any brand and make it her own. Unlike many starlets whose clothes tend to wear them, Lezark brings an edgy and modern take to the classics from Chanel to Carolina Herrera. She's also not afraid to take risks wearing more outlandish designers like Jeremy Scott—she somehow makes these runway looks appropriate for the [...]

"What's not to love about Diane Kruger's style? Seriously, the woman, above in Chanel haute couture, never seems to have a bad fashion day. And while plenty of stars have access to couture, Kruger is one of the few who always seems to give it her own spin." —Leah Bourne, Senior Editor, The Vivant

Once you forget her socialite scandals, her bizarre stint on MTV's paltry reality show "The City," and the fact that nobody really knows what she does, it's kind of easy to remember that Olivia Palermo dresses very, very well. Obviously, like any sort-of socialite worth their salt, Palermo shows up to international events, fashion shows, and charity galas looking flawlessly chic [...]
Once you forget her socialite scandals, her bizarre stint on MTV's paltry reality show "The City," and the fact that nobody really knows what she does, it's kind of easy to remember that Olivia Palermo dresses very, very well. Obviously, like any sort-of socialite worth their salt, Palermo shows up to international events, fashion shows, and charity galas looking flawlessly chic but there's something about several of her looks that are oddly accessible (or at least easy to replicate). Throughout 2012, Palermo looked like a modern-day vision of elegance, whether in a tiered Dior gown (above) at the New York Ballet 2012 Gala, or in a menswear-inspired skinny pantsuit during Paris Fashion Week. Of course, having some serious eye-candy in the form of her often tuxedo-clad beau Johannes Huebl on her arm doesn't hurt matters." —Perrie Samotin, Senior Editor, StyleCaster News

"I've always had a bit of a girl crush on Kate Hudson, so I may be biased, but she has the most amazing style (above in red Prabal Gurung). Most people might equate Kate with a down-to-earth boho chic look, but she really knows how to turn on the glamour for red carpet appearances. And it doesn't hurt that Rachel Zoe is her personal stylist." —Megan Segura, Associate Editor, Daily [...]

"Jessica Chastain is always daring with her look—pairing statement-making lips and glam curls with her red carpet dresses. She wins my best dressed pick for this year mainly because of her Oscars gown, that gorgeous Alexander McQueen dress (above) that everyone fell head over heels for." —Rachel Adler, Beauty Director, Beauty High

"What I love about Taylor Swift's style is that though she has a very strong look, she finds ways to play with in her retro-inspired style (like the vintage red dress above) from more casual high-waisted short moments to classic ladylike dresses. I also love how she's championed the midi-length dress that looks so sophisticated and chic while being totally age-appropriate. More [...]

"What I loved about Emma Stone’s red carpet style this year was the way she mixed retro ('50s dresses and a smoldering cat-eye) with girly trends (peplum and hair accessories) for perfect feminine ensembles. As a girly girl myself, it was inspiring to see her make stereotypically 'cute' looks professional and even sexy (above in Burberry)." —Shannon Farrell, Editorial Assistant, Daily Makeover

"Is Rashida Jones the coolest and most normal-seeming person in Hollywood, or what? She looks as good in boyish collared shirts and thick-framed glasses as she does in colorful, patterned dresses. She wore a banana yellow gown to the Vanity Fair Oscars party and totally pulled it off. And since I'm a beauty editor, she gets extra points in my book for consistently sticking with a [...]

"Solange Knowles has always had a forward-thinking sense of style, but this year she really seemed to come into her own. I love that she's not afraid of bold color (above in Rachel Roy)—or a good print—and she's got a great sense of how and when to mix high and low. She also tends to wear something she likes over and over again -- which I kind of love. She has this great pair of [...]

I love the looks the editors shared. They were definite highlights from the year, especially Emma Stone’s Lanvin frock for the Met Gala. The only choice I didn’t agree with as much was Olivia Palermo. She doesn’t always look that neat.
By the way, some of the images don’t show up for me. Maybe look into that?
