So, yeah. Here they are. Mattel is rolling out four dolls this summer based on our favorite Mad Men characters as part of their Barbie Fashion Model Collection. (Sorry, no smoking allowed and you'll have to supply your own cocktails.) Suggested retail price is $74.95 so don't go all crazy on us buying all four at once. The limited-edition dolls will be sold in specialty stores and online at www.amctv.com and www.barbiecollector.com. Want to know more? The New York Times' advertising columnist, Stuart Elliott, has all the saucy details. Photo courtesy of Mattel: The dolls from left to right are Joan Holloway, Roger Sterling, Don Draper and Betty Draper.

According to the DMN's intrepid biz writer Maria Halkias, Dillard's is not only doing well right now financially, it is opening two new Texas stores this week. We'll skip the new Austin location and go straight to tomorrow's launch of Dillard's at the Village in Fairview near Allen. Where is that? The shopping center is at the northeast corner of U.S. 75 and Stacy Road. (Look for The Container Store to open here in May. Other names coming this month include Toni & Guy, The Buckle and Pappagalio.) Anyhoo, back to Dillard's; Halkias reports the store will have an extended line of cosmetics, from Bobbi Brown to Mac, and will kick off four days of promo events, sales and celeb appearances. Get a schedule and details right here. Oh, and happy shopping.

Not her dress. Her makeup. Celebrity makeup artist Sara Glick, used Temptu Retouch in Champagne on "Up in the Air" Oscar nominated actress Anna Kendrick. Don't know what Temptu is? Well... "Temptu Retouch Highlighters and Blushes are a luxurious, water-enriched silicone formula allowing for a flawless application while moisturizing and conditioning the skin. The Retouch system contains Ceramide 3 and an olive oil vehicle, which nourishes and protects the skin, while Vitamins C & E provide anti-oxidant protection. The silicone base allows for a long-wearing, hi-definition, flawless finish."

While I work to compile last night's fashion picks from longtime Dallas Morning News fashion editor, Tracy Hayes, here's an AP summary of what other style experts had to say: Bullock wears 'Oscar' gown, other stars take risks. I thought trend analyst Sharon Graubard made an interesting observation in the piece: "We're moving into architectural shapes and away from all the drapery. There were not a lot of 'goddesses' this year. This was about glamour, very tasteful, grown-up glamour."

I absolutely LOVE (maybe because gray is my thing right now). Elizabeth Banks, you're spot on with this frothy layered gown.

Her hair seems a few shades darker -- love! She opted for gold Field number. Hate to say it, but I'm not a fan.

Hollywood's most charming couple tonight: Mo'Nique and husband Sidney Hicks. Earlier this week, The Huffington Post reported hints that Mo'Nique would be wearing gold tonight --- looks like she opted for royal blue instead --- and that the dress would be designed by her longtime favorite duo in New York, Tom and Linda Platt.

The Up in the Air and Twilight saga star wouldn't tell Ryan Seacrest who designed the dress she ditched at the last moment -- but it was likely a smart move. She's pretty in pink here.

What I think works so well about this beautiful blush gown is that it doesn't overwhelm Kendrick's small frame and fair skin. Really pretty. AP Photo/Matt Sayles
