MTV Style Best Of 2010: Your Top 15 Stories

We've written over a thousand style stories (we know...A THOUSAND?!) since launching in June of this year, but there were 15 that REALLY struck a chord. Not only did these posts receive tons and tons of comments, but you guys tweeted (and retweeted), Facebooked, and emailed the heck out of each one. Some of your clicks were obvious (Lady Gaga's meat dress!), but other hits were surprising (prom dresses made out of duct tape?). Here's a look back at your favorite posts of 2010...

1. LADY GAGA

This eccentric pop singer/songwriter became a household name in 2010. Don't believe us? Ask your 86-year-old grandmother who Gaga is. We bet she knows ALL about "the dress."

THE MEAT DRESS
Lady Gaga knew that she'd cause a scene by wearing the now-infamous Franc Fernandez-designed real beef dress on stage to accept her award for "Video of the Year" at the MTV Video Music Awards. Her fashion risk paid off--the dress stirred a juicy debate amongst fans.

ALSO:
Meat dress aside, there was plenty more Gaga to gab about this year--from her Lollapalooza fishnet ensembles to her heel-less Noritaka Tatehana-designed shoes, Lady Gaga was one celeb we could count on to keep us on our toes.

2. THE JERSEY SHORE

You can't get enough. We can't get enough. The more we published, the more you wanted. Here are the most popular Jersey Shore-meets-MTV Style stories of the year.

STYLE TRANSFORMATIONS:
Snooki lost her pouf and The Situation wore a body suit for Dancing With the Stars. But that was just the beginning. Nearly every member from the cast of the reality hit series Jersey Shore went through a makeover, and you loved seeing the befores and afters.

Lauren Conrad went from starring in The Hills to penning books and designing a clothing line. You loved the looks she's come up with so far and now MTV is documenting the next steps in her career with a new reality show as she continues to develop her signature line.

BEYOND MTV:
The Hills cast was a busy bunch this year. We spotted them on Dancing With the Stars, at the Emmys, wearing designer duds, changing their hair color...and wherever they were and whatever they did, you wanted to know (and talk) about it.

4. MTV STARS AT FASHION WEEK

If the MTV Style comments section told the story, the celebs who attended Fashion Week in New York City were just as important as the outfits walking down the runway.

6. THE VICTORIA'S SECRET FASHION SHOW

It's no wonder our Victoria's Secret Fashion Show post caught your eyes. This year's set was splashier, the music louder (courtesy of Katy Perry), and the models' angel wings bigger.

7. EMMA WATSON'S NEW HAIRCUT

When Harry Potter actress Emma Watson did the big chop on her hair, there were those that loved it and those that hated it. Our two cents? SO. CUTE.

8. NICKI MINAJ

Her hair, her clothes, her makeup. Just by stepping out of her house, rapper Nicki Minaj became a most talked about topic.

9. KATY PERRY'S SESAME STREET DRESS

Most of us watched Sesame Street growing up, so it was no surprise that when one of your favorite pop stars, Katy Perry, made a cameo appearance on the kids show you'd want to know what she'd be wearing. Sadly, because of her fitted, cleavage-showing Giles Deacon dress, the episode never aired.

11. KE$HA'S STYLE

Ke$ha's fashion choices eluded us, that was until she came to the MTV studios for an interview. That was when we (and YOU) finally got to hear her explain her whole garbage + glitter fashion mantra.

12. KRISTEN STEWART'S RED HAIR

Before Emma Watson caused a stir by snipping her strands, Kristen Stewart did the same thing over the summer, but with a bottle of red hair dye. Who knew so many of you would have such strong opinions on the Twilight star's new ginger strands?!

13. DUCT TAPE PROM

To say that we were impressed by the entries for the 10th annual Duct Tape Stuck at Prom Scholarship contest was an understatement. We were SHOCKED by what the couples came up with...and so were you!

14. TAYLOR MOMSEN

You got used to seeing Gossip Girl Taylor Momsen with raccoon eyes and ripped tights. But, we could all agree that it was something totally different to hear the Pretty Reckless frontwoman talk about personal style in her own words. "I have a doll collection and I look at their outfits and kind of imitate them," she said.

15. THE BRITNEY SPEARS 'GLEE' EPISODE

Gleeks waited with baited breath to see Britney Spears' cameo on Glee, and they weren't let down. Brit-Brit showcased a taste of her acting chops, while Heather Morris (who plays the cheerleader Brittany) did one of the best Britney Spears immitations we've ever seen by nailing the pop star's moves and mannerisms to a T.
