Belle Gray

(Los Angeles, online):Owned by actress and dancer Lisa Rinna, this Sherman Oaks, Calif.-based boutique lets you shop from and dress like a celebrity. Shop for clothing and accessories "as worn by" actors ranging from Ashlee Simpson-Wentz to Will Smith.

Diane Merrick

(L.A., online):Owner Diane Merrick's diamond pavé jewelry can be seen in glossy magazines. The designer, who made a name with jewelry and colorful cashmere wraps, includes both established and emerging designers. Online, you can click a brand and see pics of celebs wearing the designer's pieces.

Intuition

(Los Angeles, online):This West Los Angeles-based shop is the "epicenter of starlet style," says StoreAdore.com founder Meredith Barnett. Stars, including Drew Barrymore and Miley Cyrus, shop here, Barnett says, aware that blogs and magazines will soon know, too and that once they're photographed in those clothes and accessories, shoppers are likely to flock to Intuition to buy them.

Singer22

Miostile
