We're down to the Final Four teams, which means the stakes are raised and there are even more people watching those college basketball games than before. Below, we've rounded up some wardrobe suggestions in case you find yourself in that game-watching pack in the next week.

Designer collaborations are kind of like celebrity couples. Some, such as Versace for H&M and Missoni's Target range, have the Brangelina power of two mega-forces joining together. Others possess a certain Ben Affleck/Jennifer Garner, how-did-this-not-happen-sooner-ness, like the Keds collection at Kate Spade. Then, there's the totally random, completely confusing, Mary-Kate-Olsen-dating-Olivier-Sarkozy of limited edition lines.

Fairchild ArchiveIt looks like Cate Blanchett might be making room in her SK-II filled medicine cabinet for some Georgio Armani products soon. According to Page Six, the actress is the next celebrity face of all the brand's fragrances.

Along with a boatload of free perfume, the Oscar winner will also receive a hefty paycheck for her services. The report states that her contract is worth $10 million dollars, a nice little stimulus to whatever ever she earns making movies.

After its 2003 launch, her tiny label Issa could be found in a select few boutiques, but her main source of income was private clients, a few of which were celebrities. She wasn't exactly struggling, but not wildly successful either. It wasn't until November 2010, when Kate Middleton wore an Issa design to the globally covered press conference announcing her engagement to Price William that the brand was truly in demand.

"Boho," "rocker" and "preppy" are fine--just don't ask us to define ourselves by them, like on shopping sites trying to recommend products based on our personal style. ("Am I Glamorous? Classic?", they ask, ever so tauntingly, in pop-up quizzes.)

Most of those style descriptions have gotten so familiar that they feel staid, or at least too vague.
