10 Best Dressed of the Week of August 16: Olivia Palermo, Jessica Szohr, Victoria Justice and more make the cut!

Every month we've posted our list of best dressed celebrities--from the pop stars who really worked the red carpet to actresses whose off-set style caught our eye. Recently, though, we've run into a problem: There's just too many stylish celebs to pack into one measly month! Which is why from now on we'll be posting a best dressed list, filled with your favorite stars, every week! So who caught our fashion fancy this week? Jessica Szohr and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World star Mary Elizabeth Winstead went for subtle sex appeal in outfits with some sheer details like lace or mesh. Olivia Palermo, Penn Badgley and 30 Rock cutie Katrina Bowden all brought some fresh style to Target's fashion spectacular event that literally lit up NYC with a 14-storey light show kaleidoscope and fashion show at the Standard NYC, while Miranda Cosgrove and Jessica Lowndes showed off their style (and legs!) in short, sweet frocks! But don't take our word for it--Check out all the photos and then tell us: Who do you think is best dressed?

Taylor Momsen vs. Rihanna: Who Wears Leather Best?

After Taylor Momsen recently bashed Rihanna's pop-meets-rocker style in the latest issue of Spin magazine, we want to know: Who do you think should win this fashion feud? While Taylor might take offense when Rihanna dons a leather jacket, we're torn over which edgy songstress wears the rocker-staple fabric best! Taylor amped up the sex appeal on her tough leather jacket by opting for a midriff baring bustier top and skinny black pants. She adds more rocker flair with studded black boots, chunky rings, bedhead hair and of course, her signature kohl-rimmed eyes! Rihanna adds a sleek spin on her leather, with fitted one-shoulder little black dress that's anything but ordinary. She keeps the rest of the look simple with minimal accessories and nude heels--but her flame-red hair adds the final punch to the daring look! Who do you think wears their leather best? Was Taylor right for calling Rihanna too "pop" to rock leather, or does Rihanna steal the stage with her sophisticated take on the look? Cast your vote in the comments!

Barney's Fashion's Night Out all-out bash, that's what. If Proenza Schouler's PS1 bag has ever made you spontaneously break into song, now is your chance to serenade the designers Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough, who along with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen will be judging a Karaoke contest that's open to the public. If singing isn't really your thing, you can still indulge your competitive side with a ping pong tournament against the likes of David Neville and Marcus Wainwright of Rag & Bone, Sam Shipley & Jeff Halmos of Shipley & Halmos, Rogan Gregory & Scott Hahn of Rogan, and brothers Ben & Doug Burkman of Burkman Bros among others. Although if their backhands are as good as their design-skills, you might want to think again! Instead, you can browse artist and illustrator Andrew Yang's collection of 27" fashion rag dolls, or pop over to see Daphne Guinness (and whatever insane get-up she has on) promote her new fragrance. For the bookworm in you, there'll be two book signings celebrating Island Records founder Chris Blackwell's book Keep on Running: The Story of Island Records. and photographer Johnn Rosza's book, Untouched. And when it's all said and done, you can walk out with a limited-edition Alexander McQueen scarf, on sale only during Barneys Fashion's Night Out 2010 party.
