Aly Michalka is simply gorgeous in OK! magazine’s “Dresses That Get You Noticed” photo shoot. Aly dons a purple dress with black lace overlay from GUESS and looks like she’s ready for a New Year’s Eve bash. Michalka tells the mag:

Do you have a kiss planned for midnight this New Year’s Eve?
I’ll probably be in L.A., and I have somebody who is not in L.A., so I’ll have to wait until after New Year’s. But that’s all right.

What are you going to be doing on New Year’s Eve?
I’m probably going to see friends and go to a party. I think it’s important to be around people you care about to start out your new year with positive influences. Plan your year wisely — it’s a brand-new start! should be sleek, not bulky. Go for bias cuts and bod-skimming silhouettes.

Aly returns with Hellcats cast on Tuesday January 25th.

Country singing sensation Taylor Swift was recently quoted as saying she would be designing a line of clothing for British retailer Marks & Spencer. Swift told SplashNews via MSN:

“Yeah, I’m coming out with dresses that are inspired by the sundresses I wear.”If I was going to put out dresses, I wanted them to be affordable, especially with the economy doing what it’s doing, so I’m really excited that we’ve accomplished that.”

However, the powers that be at M & S seem to be unaware of the possible partnership. Company reps told SplashNews the following:

“M&S currently have no plans to collaborate with Taylor Swift on a range of summer dresses as misreported in a recent interview. We always look to bring the most exciting and innovative ranges to suit our customers and such collaborations may be something we look to do in the future.”

Well, which is it? Perhaps Taylor just got ahead of herself or the deal fell through – whichever, for now it seems no clothing line coming from her, other than her L.E.I. sundresses.
