After saying bye-bye to longtime boyfriend Zac Efron, we expect to see 22-year-old actress Vanessa Hudgens step out from the famed couple's shadow in a major way. (First step: a sexy bikini-clad cover of Shape).

In honor of her fairytale-inspired movie Beastly, in theaters now, we're taking a look back at the style evolution of the petite brunette beauty, from her innocent pre-High School Musical (and pre-stylist) days, to her mastery of the tiniest mini-skirts and the most elegant red carpet dresses, to the off-duty boho style that's all her own.

In just a few weeks, Catherine Malandrino's debut collection for iconic tennis and sportswear brand Lacoste (two France-born labels, mind you) will be hitting shops across the country. And believe us, you've never seen crocodiles behave quite like this.

"My most important role with Lacoste is to open the door to the feminine world," Malandrino, a tennis player herself, tells WWD. "I am relaying effortless, chic, everyday clothes that you don't have to think about. All of the silhouettes can be eye-catching, whether it is a miniskirt or high-waisted pants."

The 12-piece collection, which is her first of four collections for the 78-year-old French sportswear company, includes garments such as slouchy harem pants, wide-leg trousers, pleated miniskirts, tie-dye polos with bat-wing sleeves, and collared crochet gowns that graze the floor. (Presumably, these are all meant to be worn off the court.)

One of the most notable liberties Malandrino took in the collaboration was reinventing the brand's classic logo to include two kissing crocodiles, one green, one yellow.

"Someone said it is the best symbol for a French kiss," Malandrino explains. "It brings questions of emotion and sensuality, and that's what I wanted to bring to Lacoste."

"We like to keep the logo pretty pure," Lacoste USA CEO Steve Birkhold tells WWD. "We might change the color, and we have used an enlarged one, but it was a big deal to turn the crocodile around. (Malandrino) has really opened our eyes to what Lacoste can represent for the fashion consumer. To succeed is really just changing people's perception that a polo is all we design."

The collection, which wholesales from $145 to $750, will be sold in mid-April at approximately 43 Lacoste boutiques, 11 Malandrino stores and a few select e-tailers.

In honor of her 35th birthday on March 22, we're taking a look back at the style evolution of America's sweetheart Reese Witherspoon.

Although the Southern belle started out somewhat tragic in the '90s, donning pleathery jackets, go-go boots and maroon lipstick (although, weren't we all), by the early 2000s, Witherspoon became a consistent red-carpet winner, hitting the sartorial ball out of the park time and time again with ladylike frocks in bold hues.

Here, a look at her biggest hits and misses.

We suppose it had to happen sooner or later: a new iPad app for royal wedding fanatics (and there are thousands upon thousands of them) is now up for grabs over at iTunes.

Created by Canadian company 2 for Life, the Royal Wedding 2011 digital magazine features breaking news on all things Prince William and Kate Middleton, as well as a map of London's "royal hot spots," fun facts about the pair and the story of their courtship, a roundup of the craziest wedding-themed souvenirs, royal etiquette advice, a dress-watch section with information on designers that rumor says Middleton has chosen, tips for royal-wedding viewing parties, and even a cheesy "Will & Kate: They're Just Like Us!" feature.

"Royal Wedding 2011 is both a primer and a keepsake for iPad users who have a keen interest in the wedding and the Royal Family," Diane Hall, 2 for Life's president, tells Reuters.

If you don't have an iPad, no worries. The media company has also created a Facebook page over at Facebook.com/WillandKate that includes all the newest info on the royal pair, although it doesn't have the handy "How to Snag a Real-Life Prince" guide or an area where you can leave advice for the bride and groom, or several of the other features listed above. For that, kids, you need the app.
