Some of the hottest new stars have been feautured on the cover of “Vanity Fair’s” Hollywood Issue for March 2012. They appear impeccably dressed and perfectly coiffed.

On the front are Rooney Mara, Jennifer Lawrence, Jessica Chastain and Mia Wasikowska. Each are acknowledged for what they have done so far and the promise of what is to come.

Within the folds are other noteworthy newcomers like Elizabeth Olsen, Adepero Oduye, Shailene Woodley, Paula Patton, Felicity Jones, Lily Collins and Brit Marling. Remember their names because we will be seeing many of them in more films and fashion magazines.

I like the luminous treatment given to the images, lighting is indeed everything. Photographer Mario Testino captured these talented ladies for this issue.

Taylor Swift covers”Vogue” magazine for February 2012 and she has a gorgeous new style. She appears in knits and florals and even rocks edgier looks, like a white motorcycle jacket. The shoot was captured by photograper Mario Testino.

We first got a glimpse of the singer’s style evolution a couple of months ago. It started with her new hair cut and great bangs. Now we see her new fashion style and it works. It’s youthful and natural with just a dash of rebel for flavor.

Michelle Williams covers “Vogue” Germany’s February 2012 issue as Marilyn Monroe. The actress expertly captured the icon’s vulnerability in this image.

She channeled the movie star in her film, “My Week with Marilyn” with platinum hair, red lips and a beauty mark. The same was recreated for this shoot. Even the white robe looks glamorous in this shot. There is little doubt she was meant to play this role.

Lady Gaga posed in a Simone Rocha design, an up-and-coming British designer, for “Elle” UK’s January 2012 issue. The entertainer wore a sheer mint green mini-dress and matching headwrap. It’s from the Spring 2012 collection. Inside is a full length image of the frock sans any lining, thankfully Gaga wasn’t too shy. She accessorized the frilly number with a translucent belt at the waist. It was a good selection because green is the perfect color for spring, and the dress was so fresh and light.

Jessica Biel covers the December 2011 issue of “Elle” magazine in Donna Karan New York. Her ivory tank dress was figure flattering with side panel details emphasizing her curves. A scooped neckline revealed portions of a black Eres bra. She accessorized with numerous necklaces, bracelets and rings in assorted metals. The actress talked about her career, and her personal life inside.

Scarlett Johannson posed for the December 2011 cover of “Vanity Fair” with an over-the-shoulder glance. The actress held a cover-up for coverage. Her hair was in an up-do, and it had a pretty ginger tint which played well with her blue eyes, and pink stained lips. It was a natural image, unforced. She stands before us baring her soul in barely-there makeup, and just a fabric as a barrier.
