Since everyone else and their non-British mom is playing make believe trying to imagine what Kate Middleton and Prince William's wedding will be like, we at the Total Beauty office have decided to join in the non-creepy fun. I mean it's totally not weird that I have the event date circled on my calendar as if it's a wedding I will actually be attending and that I have already looked into non-stop flights to Heathrow, right?

It's also extremely un-stalker-like to envision the five things Kate has in her medicine cabinet too, so I think it's OK that we have decided, and therefore photoshop-ed, our three picks for what hairstyle we think Kate should wear on the big day.

Which hairstyle do you like best for the princess bride? Let us know. Especially because there is such a good chance of her seeing our recommendations, loving them, choosing one, inviting us to the wedding to sit next to the Queen Mum and having Elton John feed us white chocolate truffle cake off royal china.

Oh Cher, how I can relate to you. Not because I secretly want to be a Burlesque dancer, but because we both want to "turn back time." While you have resorted to plastic surgery (and because of that has been named one of the biggest celeb beauty train wrecks of all time), I don't quite have the budget or balls for that scenario.

So with that being said, I do have some other secrets to turning back the clock and they can (surprisingly) all be found in your makeup bag. Taylor Chang-Babaian, celebrity makeup artist and creator of Kre-at Beauty gave me the scoop on which types of lip, face and eye makeup to use or avoid in order to look younger in minutes. Check out some of her 10 look-younger-instantly makeup tricks:

Use concealer to minimize crow's feet

"Crow's feet are usually darker in color and angle downward. Applying a concealer [to them in an] upward [motion] gives the illusion of younger eyes and minimizes crow's feet." Try Cle de Peau Beaute Concealer, $70.

The usually brunette Brit went totally bleach blonde. While Kate's blue bikini looks California cute, we think her hair looks anything but. She better stay out of that chlorine-filled pool too if she doesn't want to go from yellow to green.

What do you think? Do you like Kate Beckinsale's new curly blonde style or do you like her better as a brunette?

A mock Golden Globes acceptance speech for the best celebrity hairstyle seen on the red carpet this year:

"Wow, just WOW (insert heavy breathing) I can't belieeeeve this! I'm just so … unprepared. Luckily, I wrote this super long acceptance speech on a piece of folded paper I have tucked into my bra that really only lists the names of all my agents, managers and people I owe money to. Phew. OK, so first I would like to thank all those people blah blah, wa wa. I would also like to thank my shampoo and conditioner. You've always been there for me, in my driest, frizziest times (take this quiz to find the best shampoo and conditioner for your hair) and even after that brief stint in fried hair rehab. Love you guys. Also, my hairspray, you're the glue that really holds me together through all of this -- couldn't do it without you. Finally, my partner, my curling iron. We've been through a lot of twists and turns, pins and curls, but you still manage to get me hot every time."

I'm never dating anyone from Philadelphia again. You hear me? Never.

I'm not generally a mean, spiteful or bitter woman. My friends would agree that I have a rather sunny disposition. But this guy has pushed me to my limit.

I've got a good job, a super friendly Chihuahua, a pretty decent rack and beautiful hair. Sure, I occasionally have one too many glasses of vino and call him while loudly crying alone in my apartment after watching "Letters to Juliet." Big deal. Most would find that endearing. Sentimental. Wonderfully empathetic.

But no. HE, despite being clearly out of my league with no college education and a bit of a belly (see the ugly celeb guys who date out of their league and you'll know what I am talking about), seems to think that he never has to answer my calls, texts, emails or "like" my Facebook wall posts about him.

So what does Philadelphia have to do with it? Well, I should have known better than to date someone from a city that has been ranked one of

Good news! You aren't dead … yet. But you will be someday, and all those fierce, cutting-edge, awesome haircuts you were too chicken (Bok ... Bok ... BACOCK … yes, that's me taunting you) to try, will be left, never to be tried again. Tear.

So stop being a scaredy cat already. Hair grows back. Go ahead and take a chance, because as celebrity hairstylist Italo Gregorio says, "You won't know what's right for you until you've tried as many things as possible." So, we suggest these 9 haircuts to try before you die.

The Pixie

Dare factor: 5

Short hair might seem scary, but it's so … liberating! We love Carey Mulligan's blonde take on the Audrey Hepburn-esque pixie. While she wears it in a classic way, swept forward and pieced out with a little pomade (try Pantene Pro-V Texture and Shine Defining Pomade, $2.99), you could wear it slicked back or swept up for a glamorous yet edgy, heightened version. You could even dress it up with a

Apparently Pete Wentz, Ashlee Simpson's hubby, made a New Year's resolution to go au natural in 2011. The singer has ditched his ever-so-edgy, stick straight emo hair (and his flat iron) for some seriously coarse curls (see how to copy an emo hairstyle here, if you dare).

Quickie poll: Do you love the new look or should he leave it?

Our (unsolicited) opinion: He looks like a Jonas brother, no?

From dark, brooding brown to cheery cherry, Khloe Kardashian's new red hair color looks awesome -- if you ask me (see how to copy her hairstyle here). Not a Kardashian fan? Check out other celebs with great hair color here.

She likely made the change for her new show on E! titled "Khloe & Lamar." Apparently they're going no holds bar and letting it "all hang out." Sounds like golden (haired) television to me.

So now it's time for a quickie poll: Do you prefer her old hair color, or do you like the new one she's rocking?
