Is Lindsay Lohan Finally Getting Her S**t Together? A Look Back at her Sartorial Progress in 2011

Lindsay Lohan spent most of 2011 the same way she spent most of 2010: in and out of courtrooms. Even though she served a few days of jail time and spent three months in Betty Ford last year, she emerged from the rehab center in January with plenty of court hearings ahead of her, and a slew of heavily scrutinized courtroom outfits. Our friends at Above the Law recently offered their take on Lindsay's most memorable courtroom outfits and their subsequent media scrutiny. Although she left her "Fuck you" manicure back in 2010, the legal blog found fault with the short hemlines, form-fitting silhouettes and apparent distaste for bras Lohan flaunted in the beginning of the year. However, as ATL suggests, her lawyers may have given her some advice (that she actually listened to) because her latest courtroom outfit is a far cry from the questionable Basic Instinct number below. We're not sure if it's her supposed sobriety, her sanity is slowly returning or she's starting to learn from her mistakes, but it looks like Lohan's trainwreck days could maybe finally be behind her.

Especially since she seems to have used that money wisely, investing in classic, expensive pieces like the chic, neutral Celine sweater and Prada pants and shoes she wore to a probation progress report hearing Wednesday, during which her judge reportedly told her, "You're doing well and I'd like to see it continue." So would we, judge! So would we.

As 2011 draws to a close, can we finally bid farewell to

While not necessarily the most flattering, this dress was conservative and chic, with just the right amount of glamour.

Pared down and conservative--it may be boring but it's just a court appearance and this is the way she should go if she doesn't want the media to rip her a new one.

She looked great here when she was announced as the

Though her makeup was a disaster here, this sophisticated outfit was a step in the right direction.

Get Inspired: Lindsay Lohan's Nail Art (Sans the F-U)

Confession: While everyone else was making a fuss over the fact that one of Lindsay Lohan's courtroom nails (the middle finger, natch) had a tiny "fuck u" written on it, we were thinking about how awesome her nails looked. We doubt Lilo's manicure will hold out for her 90-day prison sentence. But it looks like it's going to last longer than our $12 manicures. And that tie dye effect is kinda awesome. Want it. Even reigning nail art queen, Naomi Yasuda, whose client list includes Lady Gaga, Amanda Lepore, Alecia Keys and, wait for it, Steven Tyler, thinks Lindsay's nails were hot.

Would You Rather...? Lindsay Lohan Vs. Pippa Middleton in Temperley

Everyone wants to be Pippa Middleton, including Lindsay Lohan, apparently. The troubled starlet, along with her mother and sister, were surprise guests at this weekend's Kardashian-Humphries nuptials. She wore a long white dress--which isn't scandalous, as guests were reportedly asked to wear black or white. However, it was the same Temperley London dress that Pippa Middleton wore to that other really big wedding earlier this year. The Royal Wedding's breakout star wore a custom-made green version of the dress to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's reception back in April.

Tyra Banks to Reprise Her Role as Eve in Life Size Sequel (Et Tu, Lindsay Lohan?)

We wish we were making this up, but no, this is, as far as we can tell, factual information. Variety reports that Tyra Banks will star in and executive produce a sequel to 2000 made-for-TV movie Life Size, in which she starred alongside a post-Parent Trap/pre-Liz & Dick Lindsay Lohan. The sequel will air on Disney Channel. Banks also confirmed the news on Twitter in her own special way. If you're not familiar with Life Size, then you must have had better taste in television programming than I did in the early aughts. A quick synopsis, since you are obviously dying to know what this cinematic masterpiece is all about:
