In celebration of Mother’s Day, People compiled a list of their favorite stylish celebrity moms.

Not surprisingly, Katie Holmes and her fab pal Victoria Beckham made the list.

And, it didn't leave out the low maintenance mamas either - they also named Jennifer Garner as a woman who shined for her casual and practical ways.

Miranda and Orlando Have a Family Lunch With Flynn

Katie Henry — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 10:59:18 PST

Miranda Kerr dined with her mom, Therese, and her two guys, Flynn and Orlando Bloom, at Potts Point in Sydney earlier today. The foursome smiled as they left the restaurant, and Flynn even got a lift from grandma. Flynn celebrated his first birthday last month, and at the time Miranda said he was just on the cusp of walking. Now, Flynn is starting to strut his stuff like his supermodel mom.

Miranda won't hit the catwalk at New York's Fashion Week, but she will meet with fans in Australia tomorrow to share skincare secrets and suggest Valentine's Day gift ideas. Miranda and Orlando got a jump on the holiday when they lounged poolside with Flynn, sipping champagne and sharing sweet kisses, last week. If you're still searching for the right gift for your loved ones, check out our Valentine's Day coverage!

David and Victoria Celebrate Her Runway Success With Harper

Allie Merriam — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 06:55:45 PST

David and Victoria Beckham treated their baby girl Harper to a chic lunch at Balthazar in NYC yesterday. It was a celebratory meal following Victoria's latest Fashion Week show. The Fall 2012 Victoria Beckham collection has so far been a hit with critics, and David, who was in the front row, also seemed to be a fan. He snapped pictures throughout the presentation, and later brought Harper to visit with her designing mom backstage. Victoria has just a few days to relax, though, since she has another event to organize for Wednesday. Her lower-priced line, Victoria by Victoria Beckham, will be sent down the runway in two days.

Khloé Kardashian Odom Tells Us Women and Girls Shouldn't Be Shy About Their Bodies

Annie Scudder — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 14:00:01 PST

While Kris Jenner is making headlines for promoting a very adult product - arousal oils to be exact - her daughter Khloé Kardashian Odom is appealing to a younger audience. Khloé has teamed up again with U by Kotex, the eccentric line of pads and tampons for young women. Khloé told me that she loves that the line is "trying to destroy the old-fashioned belief that we have to be so discreet" and that it also supports the charity Girls for a Change. During fashion week, a fleet of branded U by Kotex taxis will be picking people up at Lincoln Center and in the Meatpacking District, and donating up to $100,000 to the charity. I chatted with Khloé, and she opened up about the awkward years in the Kardashian household, as well as her move to Dallas for love. Keep reading to find out all about it!

TrèsSugar: Why did you team up with U by Kotex?
Khloé Kardashian Odom: I love their packaging, the neon colors, the black boxes, they're trying to make everything so chic, and fun, and vibrant, like it's OK. Especially if you're in high school and you're pulling out one of those tampons or maxi pads, it's not as embarrassing. I love being able to let women, and especially younger women, know that it's OK to talk about this and to ask questions.

TS: Would this message have appealed to you when you were younger?
KKO: I am so thankful that I had older sisters, because I had a really tough time in school. I was always bullied in school. If it wasn't for my older sisters always making me feel like everything was OK and being able to ask them questions, I don't really know how I would have gotten through those years. I love that this brand is almost like an older sister but on a larger scheme. They're letting everyone know that this is what happens to everybody and it's awkward for everyone.

TS: So who did your older sisters talk to? Did your mom fill that role?
KKO: Kourtney told me that she didn't even tell my mom she got her period for the first year and a half. She said she told her friend and her friend just told her what to do. To me, I find that so weird. But that's Kourtney. Kim was always very open about it, but I think Kim got hers first, and I think Kourtney got jealous. Kids are weird! I don't get what that jealousy is. I'm like, "Honey, please. Be grateful that you don't have it." It's so funny that I'm 27, and my sisters are 16 and 14. I'm not so much older than them, but the comfort in talking about your bodies grows so much.

TS: Do you have an awkward or funny memory from that time?

Ben Affleck Brightens Up His Weekend With Violet, Seraphina, and Flowers

Lauren Turner — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 09:01:28 PST

Ben Affleck was all about his daughters during a farmers market outing in Pacific Palisades yesterday. He took Violet and Seraphina to check out the produce, and the trio picked up grapes, strawberries, flowers, and more. Ben showed love for Violet, who was toting a monogrammed handbag, with a kiss. Jennifer didn't join her family for the shopping excursion, but she was busy with the girls on Saturday. Jennifer, Violet, and Seraphina went to the beach in LA to take advantage of the sunny weather. Violet and Seraphina played in the sand while their pregnant mom watched nearby. Jennifer's maternity style has been on display as she steps out for errands, and there's even more pregnancy fashion to come since she's not due until this Spring.

David Beckham and Prince Harry Meet Up For a Night of London Clubbing

Allie Merriam — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 07:26:06 PST

David Beckham and his best friend Dave Gardner spent last night at what seems to be London's hottest spot, the Arts Club. Prince Harry was out as well to say hi to David, along with Princess Eugenie and the singer Katherine Jenkins. It was Harry and David's latest get-together. David visited with Harry when the latter went to LA for a weekend during his time in the US doing an Apache helicopter training course. Both good-looking British guys are looking forward to the Olympics, with David hoping to play for Great Britain's soccer team. Harry recently expressed an interest in doing a PR-friendly race against champion runner Usain Bolt while touring Latin and South America to promote his grandmother Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee.

The evening of fun came as a break from work for David. He traveled to London earlier this week to launch David Beckham bodywear for H&M, later celebrating the launch with his parents and his wife Victoria's mom and dad. David also spent an afternoon filming an ad for Adidas. Victoria, meanwhile, has her own new collections on the brain. She's gearing up for New York Fashion Week, where she'll actually have two presentations. In addition to her Victoria Beckham Collection, she's also showing Victoria by Victoria Beckham.
