From Zara to her own L.A.M.B. line, Gwen Stefani shops just about everywhere, and yesterday she dropped into Opening Ceremony to peruse the racks of clothes for a few gems ... or perhaps for a few Christmas gifts?

When Gwen's not indulging in a little retail therapy, she's all over the place, and in the new issue of Vogue she discusses the balancing act that is her life.

"Ten years ago, I had started L.A.M.B. because I was preparing myself, knowing that the music thing was going to end," she says. "Who knew that ten years later, I’d be doing a No Doubt record, be married, have two kids, have three clothing lines? All at one time! It would be ridiculous to do that. And it is ridiculous. It’s impossible. So I think a lot of what I was going through on the rec­ord was wanting to be who I’ve always been, but now I’m somebody different. I am a mother. And if you don’t do it right, there are serious consequences. That’s what this whole record was: trying to balance it, trying to be my creative self but also be the new me."

Based on what we've seen, she does an amazing job with all of the above!

What a sexy snow bunny!

Paris Hilton and River Viiperi took a lunch break at Mezzaluna in Aspen on Wednesday, and afterwards the lovebirds hit the slopes for another run. "Fun day snowmobiling with @RiverViiperi @BoostedJ @AnitaEats & BD. Love being in the great outdoors ;)," she tweeted.

We love seeing the heiress on a set of skis or riding in a snowmobile, but after seeing Rihanna on her tropical vacay, we have to wonder if P has plans to head to Hawaii or Cabo over the holidays. Maybe she'll be on a beach in a bikini for New Year's?

Seriously, Kim Kardashian's booty never gets old!

At first glance we thought the reality TV starlet was wearing a pair of baggy trousers, but after checking out the view from the back, these were anything but loose! Our only question is ... where was beau Kanye West? You'd think he'd be trailing just a few feet behind Kim's derriere!

While we were excited yesterday about Kim's new hairstyle, alas, her bangs were not the real deal. "I saw a few of you tweeting me about my bangs!! The bangs are fake!" she wrote on her blog. "Just clip ons! I had a fun Cosmo cover shoot yesterday and Chris McMillan clipped these on!" Bummer! But we are looking forward to her Cosmo cover!

There's no place like home!

Rihanna slipped into a skimpy bikini and hit the pool in Barbados on Wednesday, and she gave us a peek at her tattoos ... and her amazing bod!

And it sounds like the 24-year-old R&B star could use a little time off, as on-again/off-again ex Chris Brown and his on-again/off-again ex, Karrueche Tran, are reportedly back together. "Being single sucks," RiRi tweeted on Tuesday. "The only thing I get to do anymore is whatever the f*ck I want to do."

So does this mean Chris broke things off just to get back together with Karrueche? Possibly! "You know what, from what I've always known, she's his girlfriend," Christina Millian blabbed to Wendy Williams last week. "And that's where it lies for me. I see everything in the media. I really don't get into the detail of it, but I think everybody has their own life and how they deal with things. They have the right to handle it how they want ... I think they make a great couple." Sounds like some R&R in the islands is just what the doctor ordered!

Claire Danes and hubby Hugh Dancy are the proud parents of baby boy Cyrus Michael Christopher Dancy.

The 33-year-old actress gave birth to her little bundle on Monday.

This past July, Danes confirmed that she was expecting.

Despite her pregnancy, she kept on filming her hit Showtime series Homeland.

Danes has won an Emmy for her role as Carrie Mathison and has also been nominated for a SAG and Golden Globe.

Congrats to the new parents!

Is someone feeling stressed these days? Between chasing after her 17-month-old son and dealing with the aftermath of her split from his father, Jason Bleick, it sure seems like it! Selma Blair was spotted running errands in Studio City on Wednesday, and the actress puffed on a cigarette when we snapped her in her car later in the afternoon.

The other day some photos of Selma looking scary skinny hit the web (not ours) and she while she slammed the paparazzi for taking her picture, she hasn't always had a bad relationship with shutterbugs. “One day they will provide a scrapbook for me and that’s how I want to look at it,” she told People mag last November. “When you talk to them, the guys are all pretty nice. I learn their names, say, ‘Hi.’"

We doubt these pics will be going in her album though!

Taylor Swift has been busy promoting her new album Red, but the country cutie took a quick break to grab some groceries at Ralph's in Studio City with her mom Andrea.

Great to see Tay took a break from spending time with her new 18-year-old boyfriend Harry Styles!

The 23-year-old "Trouble" songstress recently hit up Shamrock Social Club in West Hollywood with the One Direction cutie while he got a new tattoo on his left arm.

Could Ms. Swift have found the perfect guy? We won't hold our breath.

Did someone party a little too hard on their birthday? Or is Katie Holmes just getting burnt out from all her Broadway performances this month?

On Wednesday we spotted the 34-year-old out and about in New York City, and she's just about done with her run on the play Dead Accounts. So what's next? Holmes is set to star in the film Responsible Adults opposite Chace Crawford, which is "a romantic comedy centered on Baxter Wood (Crawford), who realizes that his crush, med student Liz Quinn (Holmes), was his babysitter 15 years ago," according to IMDb.

Wonder if Katie will heat things up offscreen with the Gossip Girl hunk? He may be 7 years younger than her, but he's definitely a hottie!
