Nicki Minaj's Kmart clothing line is shaping up to be super cute!

After her big night out at the Met Gala, Nicki had to get up bright and early and attend a morning meeting for her upcoming collection — and luckily for us, she gave her Barbz a sneak peek at what's to come!

Her Minajesty posted two ADORABLE print dresses on her Twitter, one with a matching blue and gold jacket, a winter coat, some purse sketches, and even one of her uniquely embellished captain hats that she was seen wearing in the meeting (above)!

So far, we're loving everything we see! So unique and cute just like Nicki - and flattering too!

We think this line has a possibility of being HUGE, just like her MAC lipsticks!

Check out the proper preview of her fashion line (below)! See anything U like???

England may have its wacky royal wedding fascinators, but we have the Kentucky Derby, and our hats are BIGGER!

And, obvs, bigger is always better! So, take that, Brits!

Lauren Conrad took that expression very much to heart at the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs on Saturday, wearing a ginormous floral hat on her pretty little head.

From the head down, she was classy and elegant in a dotted Paper Crown dress paired with nude LC Lauren Conrad pumps.

We're digging the soft, monochromatic color scheme, Lauren's ombre waves, and her glowing tan.

Well done, LC!

Take THIS, naysayers!

Princesses Beatrice and Princess Eugenie of York were ridiculed quite extensively for their headgear choices at the Royal Wedding two years ago, but lately they've been looking FAB!

And Easter Sunday at St. George's Chapel in London was yet another example of how far they've come in their fashion choices!

The royal sisters looked lovely in their respective outfits, with Beatrice in a striking teal lace dress and matching coat, while Eugenie was two-toned in a cream shift and textured black coat.

Their accessories were also inspired!

Bea rocked a feathered fascinator by Rachel Black, nude YSL pumps a la Kate Middleton, and a silver clutch, and her younger sister went the edgy route with a studded clutch, black Jimmy Choo pumps, and shimmery pale pink headpiece by Sarah Cant.

Which look do U like better???

Get your mind out of the gutter! We're talking about HATS!

After Paris Hilton flaunted him at the Topshop opening party on Wednesday, River Viiperi returned the favor by a Paris-branded snapback on his head!

He shared the pic on Twitter, saying:

Just Landed W my #Love @ParisHilton 1h Drive 2 the Hotel now 😴 How sick is the @PAISLEEltd Hat She got? #IWantOne

Hey, River, may we suggest you get a cap with PEREZ on the front in big, white letters?

Just sayin'! Ha!

Her Madgesty would never!

A blogger on iconic stylist Patricia Field's tumblr has been throwing some pretty serious allegations around, namely claiming that Madonna stole the idea for the Vogue snap back baseball cap currently sold in Field's stores and online from the stylist.

Oh no he did not!

The blogger, whose name is Andy, seemed pretty incensed in his little rant, saying:

After a 12 year hiatus, Philip Treacy returned to the London Fashion Week catwalks on Sunday!

The milliner's Michael Jackson meets Africa-inspired S/S 2013 collection was modeled by an all-black cast of models outfitted in some of the King of Pop's costumes and all we can say is it was a Thriller!

Mr. Treacy said of his fascinating collection:

"It was based on Africa getting rich. A future Africa and they just happen to be wearing Michael Jackson’s clothes. Jackson was exceptional — his talent, the dancing, the image, and I was touched to be able to work with his clothes. They were at my studio for a month before the show, and they were really freaking me out. I’d lift up a box, and there’d be a sparkly glove.”

Ha!

Speaking of sparkly gloves, that was hands down our favorite piece!

Besides the obvious tribute to Michael Jackson, Treacy also dedicated the show to his late friends Isabella Blow and Alexander McQueen, with a gospel choir which brought tears to those seated in the front row.

Wow. Bravo, Philip!

While London is busy with the 2012 Olympic Games, milliners were diligently creating bespoke headpieces for London landmarks.

Philip Treacy and Stephen Jones were among the 21 designers to give London statues a head makeover for the Hatwalk.
