Who Wore Emilio Pucci Better? Jessica Chastain or Alexa Chung


Jessica Chastain
Jessica Chastain was the first to don this black lace-sleeved velvet Emilio Pucci Fall 2011 dress with a white collar for the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty Costume Institute Gala which took place at the Metropolitan Museum Of Art in New York City back in May.
The actress teamed the long-sleeve frock with a pair of simple black slingback Christian Louboutin heels and diamond drop earrings.
She styled her hair in a side swept updo, kohl rimmed eyes and a nude lip completed her look.
On Tuesday night, Alexa Chung wore the same dress to the Emilio Pucci new boutique launch at Saks Fifth Avenue in New York City.
While the dress fits the gal’s personality (and style) more, she teamed the frock with chunky T-strap pumps that made her ensemble look too gothic.
As always, her barely there makeup and casual tresses completed her look.
This time around Jessica’s simple styling wins it for me.
If you can’t make up your mind, click on the image above to see more pictures of these ladies in their Pucci dress.

Giorgio Armani Spring 2012 Press Preview


Giorgio Arman
This week I attended the Giorgio Armani press preview in London which showcased the Spring 2012 collection.
I was very excited to see one of the embellished dresses worn by the finale goddesses. This dress most definitely needs a red carpet moment.
I’m usually scared to touch things on display in fear of breaking something, but I was really curious to get my hands into the moon-crescent bodice to find answers to my questions. Would it be restrictive on the wearer? Does it have an inbuilt bra?
From my manhandling of the dresses, my findings, as I believe, are that its no more restrictive than any other corset and it doesn’t have a built in bra.

Crown Oaks Day

Sarah Jessica
Sarah Jessica Parker may have been in Melbourne, Australia for the Oaks Ladies Day 2011 Spring Carnival, but she was flying the flag for British Fashion.
The star wore a Jonathan Saunders Spring 2012 pink ombre sleeveless dress which was the perfect choice for Ladies Day.
Her dress was teamed with an Antonio Berardi Spring 2012 tailored silver coat, a string of pearls and mint green Manolo Blahnik pumps.
After wearing a hat which totally overwhelmed her yesterday, SJP opted for a bejewelled headpiece.
The piece was made by her hairdresser Serge Normat, who also styled her tresses into this elaborate bun.
This is SJP’s forth look this week.
Which one is your favourite?
Vera Wang? Chanel? Prabal Gurung? or this Jonathan Saunders dress?

Avon Foundation For Women Global Voices For Change Gala


Ashley Greene
Ashley Greene attended the Avon Foundation For Women Global Voices For Change Gala in New York City last night.
My first reaction to her in this custom Donna Karan dress was, ‘This is more like it’.
Finally a spark, a genuine smile, some personality and some va va voom.
The electric-blue one-shoulder satin dress with a gathered detail at the hip also and also has a thigh-high split. It’s an amazing silhouette which shows off her figure to perfection.
Her hair was styled into loose pin curls to give an old Hollywood flavour, and she added a soft pink lip colour.
Kwiat vintage jewels and black accessories including Casadei pumps completed the look.
I would complain about the slightly uninspiring accessories, but she made such a huge effort in every other department that it would just be nit-picking on a much improved look.

‘A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas’ LA Premiere


Mena Suvari
Mena Suvari donned a very festive frock on the red carpet for the LA premiere of ‘A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas’.
She wore a Tibi Pirouette Party dress from the Fall 2011 collection.
The head-turning fiery halter dress with a bold print and a unique cut-out back was teamed with black Ruthie Davis ‘Avatar’ pumps and a matching patent black clutch.
Her bob was pushed back behind her ears so we could see her gorgeous black earrings.
I don’t think I’ve ever owned black earrings, but these teardrop beauties work perfectly with her overall look.
Kohl-rimmed eyes, silvery eye shadow and glossy lips completed her super-cute red carpet look.

Amanda Seyfried In Michael Angel


Amanda Seyfried
Earlier today Amanda Seyfried and Justin Timberlake were in Madrid, Spain, for the next stop on their European tour for their new movie, ‘In Time’.
The blonde actress continues to seek out colourful looks for her red carpet appearances, and on this occasion she wore a Michael Angel Spring 2011 dress.
As much as I have raved about her glossy locks over the past few days, she should’ve really pulled her hair back to show off the neckline on this stunning psychedelic-print dress, even though she opted out of wearing the Peter Pan collar.
The eggplant Lanvin pumps are tres plain, but maybe she didn’t want to upstage the dress.
Michael Angel is very much an underrated designer by Hollywood starlets.
I wish more celebs would wear his unique pieces.

‘Love For Life’ Rome Film Festival Premiere & Photocall


Zhang Ziyi
The Rome Film Festival came alive again last night as Zhang Ziyi graced the red carpet for the ‘Love for Life’ premiere.
I have goosebumps as I’m writing this; Zhang is beyond breathtaking in her Christian Dior Resort 2011 gown.
Her baby-blue strapless embroidered gown with a matching ribbon tied to the waist will no doubt make many BDOTY lists.
Zhang kinda fell off the radar for a while, but this is a surefire way to signal to everyone that she’s back.
A darker-blue embellished clutch was teamed with ivory drop earrings and a diamond-encrusted bracelet.
I think the bracelet was one accessory too many for this look, but I’m just thankful that she didn’t add a necklace.

Florence Welch’s Jason Wu Swarovski Elements Embellished Coat


Florence Welch
Celebrities sure know how to fly in style.
Florence Welch was spotted heading out of London Heathrow Airport yesterday wearing a beautiful Jason Wu Fall 2011 coat.
Her stunning charcoal coat is embroidered with rich Swarovski Elements.
She complemented the burgundy Swarovski Elements on her coat by adding a Gucci hat, belt, ballet flats and Mulberry Polly Push Lock bag in the rich autumn hue.

Good Day LA


Rebecca Romijn
Rebecca Romijn was at the Good Day LA studios in Hollywood last week where she dished on her TV movie, ‘Possessing Piper Rose’.
The ‘Ugly Betty’ actress wore a Raoul Spring 2012 dress.
Her navy and pink colour-block dress with brown leather panels was the perfect relaxed, feminine, approachable look for daytime TV.
I would’ve added some navy heels instead of black, but Hollywood starlets do love their black pumps.

Celebrities Love…Isabel Marant Dicker Suede Ankle Boots



Isabel Marant ‘Dicker’ ankle booties have been worn by a bevy of beauties—we’re talking Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Hilary Rhoda, Kate Bosworth and Katie Holmes.
These boots have been a complete hit because they are one part chic and one part edgy.
The suede shoes have become one of the must-have items of casual footwear for fall. But the great thing about them is that they can also be worn during the spring and summer with cutoff shorts like Katie, or a floral dress like Hilary.
The coveted Isabel Marant booties will set you back $615. That is if you can still find them in stores because most of the shops are sold out.

People of the Year Awards 2011 by Bazaar Men


Fan Bingbing
Fan Bingbing proved that she is most definitely the unofficial (or even official) brand ambassador for Elie Saab at the People of the Year Awards 2011.
The event was held in Beijing, China, in conjunction with Bazaar Men for Mercedes-Benz China Fashion Week.
She looked breathtaking (when doesn’t she?) wearing an Elie Saab Spring 2011 Couture gown.
Her stone-embroidered gown with a grosgrain waistband and elbow-length sleeves was teamed with Cartier jewels which sparkled as brightly as her gown.
A side-swept bun and coral lips completed her look.

Lady Gaga’s Michael Kors Fur Coat


Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga was all fur coat and Louboutins as she was spotted leaving the Soho Screening Rooms in London on Tuesday.
The singer wore a nude Michael Kors Fall 2011 fluffy fur coat with fishnet tights.
Nude Christian Louboutin ‘Lady Daf’ pumps, John Lennon-style shades, floral-shaped earrings and a diamond bracelet completed her look.
The singer is in town before heading to Belfast for the 2011 MTV Europe Music Awards which takes place on Sunday night.

Hand And Footprint Ceremony At Grauman’s Chinese Theatre


Kristen Stewart
Kristen Stewart was joined by her Twilight co-stars, Robert Pattinson (in Armani) and Taylor Lautner, for the Hand and Foot Print Ceremony at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood this afternoon.
The actress wore a Marios Schwab Spring 2012 dress, which is our second look from this collection to hit the red carpet.
Her nude halter dress with a Swarovski crystal net overlay and patent leather detailing was paired with what looks like checkered Keds.
I was shocked at first, but the sneakers are clearly for the footprint part of the ceremony.

Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women Of The Year Awards


Abbey Clancy
Abbey Clancy was one of the first to arrive on the red carpet at the Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women of the Year Awards 2011 which took place at Banqueting House in London this evening.
The TV presenter/WAG donned an Emilio Pucci dress from the Fall 2011 collection.
Pre-bias aside, those roots just don’t work with this Pucci dress.
She tried to do the sexy, sophisticated thing in this long-sleeve lace-trimmed kaleidoscope print dress with a high neckline and sultry keyhole detail, but she doesn’t have the chops to pull it off.
The only thing I like here are the Christian Louboutin pumps.

Good Morning America


Kirsten Dunst
Kirsten Dunst started off her morning with a guest appearance on Good Morning America in New York City.
She was there to promote her new movie, ‘Melancholia’.
The actress looked beautiful wearing a summery Chloé Resort 2012 dress.
Her floral sleeveless shift dress was teamed with two-tone Chanel pumps and coral lipstick for a very ladylike look for daytime TV.

Kirsten arrived at the ABC studios wearing a coral Chloé double breasted coat from the same collection.
The military style coat was adorned with gold buttons and teamed with a feathered Chanel bag.
Now the coral lip colour makes even more sense.

The Rum Diary’ London Premiere


Amber Heard
Amber Heard brought her hypnotic charm to a cold and wet night on the red carpet for ‘The Rum Diary’ London premiere.
The blonde bombshell looked outstanding wearing an Alessandra Rich Spring 2012 dress.
Her pale rose paillette column dress was kept very simple.
I’m glad she didn’t follow the model’s lead with the necktie, the belt and the fuchsia heels.
Amber just added nude patent Louboutin peep-toes, glossy lips and swept her hair up into a chic updo.
This is one of my favourite looks from her. She knows how to work a dress.

The Lady’ Rome Film Festival Premiere & Photocall


Michelle Yeoh
Michelle Yeoh is in Italy for the 2011 Rome Film Festival.
She attended the premiere for ‘The Lady’ wearing a Valentino Resort 2012 gown.
Her soft grey gown has a beautiful embroidered bodice with the same detail stripped on her skirt.
Whilst her green bangles and green watch complement the green stones in her earrings, they bring down the look for me.

The Lady Rome Film Festival Premiere


 Luisa Raneri
Luisa Raneri attended the 2011 Rome Film Festival premiere for ‘The Lady’ yesterday evening.
The gorgeous Italian actress and Master Of Ceremonies for the festival wore an Atelier Versace gown.
It’s always a pleasure to see an Atelier Versace gown on the red carpet and this is no exception.
The one-shoulder silk-chiffon gown has a dramatic multiple-layered skirt and a bow detail on the bodice.
Luisa added two diamond-encrusted bracelets and studded earrings to her look.
I would’ve preferred a chic chignon, but she styled her hair into a high ponytail.

Fashion Group International’s 28th Annual Night of Stars Gala

Jessica Biel
Jessica Biel attended Fashion Group International’s 28th annual Night of Stars, which was held at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City yesterday evening, as the guest of Giambattista Valli.
The actress, who was front row at the designer’s Spring 2012 presentation earlier this month, wore a stunning white Giambattista Valli Fall 2011 Couture gown.
I had to look at this twice, because the first time I was looking at Jessica with a lot of pre-bias – greasy hair, boring Biel circa 2009, etc.
On second look I think she held her own in this gown. It’s not an easy look to pull off with the puffy layers on the shoulders.
Two years ago this gown would’ve overwhelmed her, but she stood tall and took complete ownership of this look.
I love her dewy glow and soft pink lips. Her make-up is perfect for this ethereal look.
A Giambattista Valli gold leaf belt and Fred Leighton jewels completed her look.

Justin Timberlake In Dsquared²


Justin Timberlake
Justin Timberlake had good reason to be happy as he made his way to the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City yesterday for a guest appearance on the ‘Late Show With David Letterman’.
That’s because he’s managed to redeem himself from that awful camel suit he wore last time out.
On this occasion he was back to his dapper best wearing a Dsquared² suit.
His dark grey classic three-piece suit with a single breasted blazer, light blue shirt and grey pocket square was teamed with a textured tie.
I love the grey suede shoes, but I wish his blackberry wasn’t so visible in his pocket.

Rose McGowan In Tom Ford


Rose McGowan
Justin Timberlake wasn’t the only one suiting up yesterday.
Rose McGowan worked the menswear trend at the 2011 amfAR Inspiration Gala Los Angeles yesterday evening wearing a Tom Ford suit.
Her sexy look consisted of a satin ivory tuxedo jacket with black lapels and black satin pants.
She smouldered working a coral lip colour, when red would’ve been a more obvious choice.
Her brunette locks were swept over one shoulder to reveal her Miriam Haskell for Decades earrings.
The pants are too long for my personal taste and the jacket appears to be a tad too big. I’m guessing this was to accommodate the twins.

Dita Von Teese Launches Dita Von Teese ‘Muse’ Collection


Dita Von Teese
Dita von Teese was in Melbourne, Australia yesterday for the launch of her first ever clothing line, Dita Von Teese ‘Muse’ Collection.
The Burlesque Queen designed her very own limited edition collection, which will allow us to emulate her ladylike look.
The collection of only five pieces, which includes vintage-inspired dresses and a tulle layered trench coat, will be sold exclusively through Australian retailer David Jones.
We should expect couture detailing, cinched-in waists, vintage inspirations and impeccable attention to detail.
The collection will be available at David Jones from February 2012.
Dita opted for a bold, colourful look for the launch which included a floral print dress and red hot signature touches.

Lady Gaga In Naeem Khan



Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga is currently in New Delhi, India where she’s due to perform at the Formula One after-party as part of India’s debut on the F1 circuit.
She held a press conference at the Taj Mansingh Hotel to announce her performance wearing a Naeem Khan Resort 2012 gown.
The watercolour one-shoulder gown isn’t the most obvious choice for the singer, but as usual she makes it work for her by colouring her tightly wrapped bun to match her gown.

Kate Bosworth In Chanel



Kate Bosworth
Following her colourful look at the Burberry Body Launch event, Kate Bosworth donned a head-to-toe black look for Chanel’s intimate dinner party which was held at the Robertson Blvd. Boutique in LA yesterday evening.
Her Chanel ensemble consisted of a black A-line tweed skirt which she paired with a black long-sleeve silk shirt.
The shirt has embroidered gold chain cuffs, plus the same details covered the buttons.
Her Chanel lace-up wedges also had a gold chain trim.
Kate accessorized with a sequin Chanel bag and a single gold banded ring.
A simple bun and minimal makeup completed her look.

Hysteria Rome Film Festival Photocall



Maggie Gyllenhaal attended the ‘Hysteria’ Rome Film Festival photocall this afternoon.
The actress gives us our first red carpet look at the Dries van Noten Spring 2012 collection.
This isn’t a surprise as the actress is a huge fan of the brand and is often the one to snag the first look.
Her loose-fitted waterprint dress with one draped sleeve excited me more on the model as I prefer the strappy sandals, but this is a perfect laidback look for a photocall.
Brown wooden wedges, a simple bun, rosy cheeks and red lips completed her look.
I’m very excited to see what Maggie wears to the premiere later this evening.

Milla Jovovich In Prada


Milla Jovovich
Milla Jovovich attended both the press conference and the party for the launch for the 2012 Campari Calendar unveiling in Milan, Italy yesterday.
The actress wore two Prada looks.
For the press conference she wore a flirty red chiffon printed blouse and a blue dotted skirt.
She accessorized with fine jewelry, black satin Prada peep-toes and a Prada ‘Visone’ crocodile bag.
Milla sported sleek locks on this occasion, and that rouge lip colour which matches her shirt is to die for.
I just love her attitude. She’s oozing confidence from her every pore.
For the party, Milla changed into a Prada red chiffon dress which was designed especially for the occasion.
I’m not sure I like the lace embroidered red roses on the bodice which are embellished with ruby cabochons.
Nor do I like the pale pink satin Prada shoes with this gown.
A black crystal embellished Prada clutch, oversized earrings and a chic updo completed her look.
I much prefer the photocall look.
Which do you prefer?

Beauty Trend Spotting Lacquered Locks



Between the messy side braid, the disheveled top knot, and tousled bedhead tresses, it’s truly hard to fathom why women still have bad hair days, and have yet to master the done-undone look.
Another chic and easy hairstyle to fallback on? The shiny slick back.
Seen all over the Fall 2011 runways (Ralph Lauren, Giambattista Valli, Mary Katrantzou, Salvatore Ferragamo, The Row), stars like Camilla Belle and Keira Knightley are starting to shellac their strands to their scalps as well. Such a laissez-faire, yet entirely appropriate red carpet look.

Janie Jones New York Premiere


Abigail Breslin
Abigail Breslin was in New York City last night for the premiere of her latest movie, ‘Janie Jones’.
She donned a blinding neon-yellow Nanette Lepore Spring 2012 look fresh off the runway.
Well, actually looking at the runway, the blazer and pleated skirt don’t appear to be neon-yellow – more like lemon – but the photographer’s flash has made it appear harsher on the red carpet.
It was always going to be hard to accessorize this look and find the right lip colour, and that has proven to be the case.
The berry lip colour and pumps say fall, whilst the ensemble says spring. The mixed messages are just darn confusing.
Whilst it was a very cute look on the runway, it doesn’t work for me on the red carpet.
A David Yurman pearl chain necklace completed her look.

Salma Hayek In Stella McCartney


Salma Hayek
Salma Hayek dropped by the NBC studios in New York City to promote her new movie ‘Puss In Boots’ on ‘Late Night With Jimmy Fallon’.
The actress called first dibs on a look from the Stella McCartney Spring 2012 collection, like she did with Bottega Veneta and Alexander McQueen who are also part of the Gucci Group.
I wonder if she’s going to debut the whole set which would include Gucci, YSL and Balenciaga.
Her navy and blue tank Stella McCartney dress with a swirl velvet appliqué was teamed with a black blazer with satin lapels.
An silver choker, black tights, a silver cuff, and YSL Tribtoo pumps completed her look.
The surprising thing about this look is the addition of the blazer, considering how much she was showing off in her Antonio Berardi dress on ‘Letterman’ earlier this week.

2011 amfAR Inspiration Gala Los Angeles


Sandra Bullock

Sandra Bullock attended the 2011 amfAR Inspiration Gala Los Angeles yesterday evening at the Chateau Marmont.
We don’t often see her on the red carpet, and when we do she’s usually wearing head-to-toe black, so I’m happy to see her in this AllSaints ‘Eagle’ dress.
Her gold embellished mini dress was teamed with a black Stella McCartney tuxedo jacket.
Irit designs earrings; a Pomellato bracelet and ring provided even more bling.
A Jimmy Choo ‘Cosma’ clutch, a loose updo, metallic smoky eyes and frosty pink lips completed her look.
From the ankles up I love this look as it’s so different for Sandra.
I would’ve preferred black strappy sandals, but she opted for silver Jimmy Choo ‘Eros’ pumps.

Elle Fanning and Hailee Steinfeld In Chanel


Elle Fanning and Hailee Steinfeld
Elle Fanning and Hailee Steinfeld were both out last night attending the Chanel Intimate Dinner which was held in LA yesterday evening.
I don’t know about you, but I’m starting to feel slightly fatigued by these two.
What started off as being two young talented actresses looking cute in designer looks has become two young talented actresses looking older than their teen years in designer clothes.
Nothing really feels organic with these two anymore, but I don’t blame them it’s the fault of those dressing them.
Elle wore Chanel look with a suffocating high neckline and ivory shorts with office pumps, whilst Hailee is once again wearing too much makeup with her Chanel head-to-toe look.
What happened to teens wearing cute dresses by D&G, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Moschino Cheap & Chic or Alice + Olivia?

Death And The Maiden Press Night After Party



It’s been over a month since we last saw Thandie Newton. The British actress attended the ‘Death and the Maiden’ press after-party in London last night.
On her last outing she wore a Giles Resort 2012 dress; this time she wore a Giles Spring 2012 dress.
As always she looks absolutely divine.
I love the mix of colours, textures and prints here.
Her dress has a leopard print and silk print top with a red waistband and a silver metallic skirt.
I just love the unexpected pop of aqua Nicholas Kirkwood pumps.
This isn’t an easy look to pull off with so much going on, plus she doesn’t play it safe with black pumps.
It’s going to be a hard week, but I would love to squeeze this into BDOTW.
Solange Azagury-Partridge jewels completed her look.

15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala


Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley looked devastatingly beautiful (without much effort) on the red carpet at the 15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala which was held at The Beverly Hilton Hotel, California last night.
She opted for a long-sleeve Emilio Pucci Fall 2011 dress.
Her ornate embroidered floral dress, which is elegantly offset by the crystal embellishment, has an open back and a subtle side split for added sex appeal.

Lincoln Center Presents An Evening With Ralph Lauren


Camilla Belle
I have to give credit where credit is due – Camilla Belle has been nothing short of sensational on the red carpet the last few outings.
This was most definitely the case as she entered the Lincoln Center for An Evening with Ralph Lauren, hosted by Oprah Winfrey, in New York City yesterday evening.
The gorgeous actress wore a Ralph Lauren Fall 2011 gown.
Her outstanding gown with a sheer yoke, beaded body and feather-like chiffon train gave her an amazing silhouette.
I’m sure many of you will pick at her lack of imagination for styling her hair and makeup almost identically to the model, but it’s working for her as she oozes sexy sophistication.
I especially love the glossy pink lips.
For me this is a BDOTW contender.
What do you think?

15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala


Elle Fanning
Elle Fanning attended the 15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala in Beverly Hills yesterday evening.
The teen actress opted for a Valentino Spring 2012 dress – our first look at this collection on the red carpet.
Her nude cotton-lace floor-length short-sleeve dress with embroidered details was just the right length for the young star.
My problem with this look is that she’s wearing yet another nude dress.
I would’ve loved to have seen her in something more colourful and less aging from this collection.
On this occasion her hairstyle also lets her down.
Gold Valentino sandals completed her look.

Tower Heist New York Premiere



It was another family night out as Sarah Jessica Parker, Matthew Broderick and young James Wilkie Broderick hit the red carpet for the ‘Tower Heist’ New York premiere.
SJP wore a Narciso Rodriguez dress with Fred Leighton jewels.
I’ve tried really hard, but I’m failing to like this blush, copper and royal-blue cotton-taffeta dress.
I don’t feel like this style of dress suits SJP at all.
It’s not particularly flattering, especially around the chest area.
I would have loved to have seen this dress on Elle Fanning, as this dress seems more appropriate for someone within her age bracket.

15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala



Carey Mulligan

Carey Mulligan opted for a head-to-toe black look on the red carpet for the 15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala last night where she picked up the ‘Supporting Actress’ award for ‘Shame’.
The British actress had been M.I.A. on the red carpet for a while, but she made a welcome return giving us a second look from the Bottega Veneta Spring 2012 collection on the red carpet.
Her embellished halter dress was paired with simple black satin Ferragamo peep-toes and a Bottega Veneta waxy studded intrecciato leather box clutch.

15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala

Anne Hathaway f
Anne Hathaway flashed her pearly whites on the red carpet at the 15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala in Beverly Hills last night.
She snagged the first look from the Erdem Spring 2012 collection.
Her sexy floral-print embroidered dress with a high-waist skirt and spaghetti-string bralet was unfortunately teamed with uninspiring footwear.
The runway Nicholas Kirkwood for Erdem shoes may have been too matchy-matchy, but they would’ve been a more interesting choice for me.

Lincoln Center Presents: An Evening With Ralph Lauren


Kerry Washington
Kerry Washington looked very statuesque on the red carpet whilst arriving at the Lincoln Center in New York City for An Evening with Ralph Lauren hosted by Oprah Winfrey.
She opted for a shimmering black Ralph Lauren Fall 2011 gown.
I love the silver beaded metallic ringed neckline which makes her look like a beautiful Masai warrior.
She selected a complementary silver Raven Kauffman Couture ‘Charlie’ clutch and swept her hair back into a sleek bun.
Red-hot lips completed her look.

15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala October 25th, 2011


Emma Stone
Emma Stone and her co-stars from her hit movie ‘The Help’ won ‘Best Ensemble Cast’ at the 15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala which took place in LA last night.
The actress wore a dress from the Jonathan Saunders Spring 2012 collection, which is yet another first look.
It seems like stars are only wearing Spring 2012 looks now.
Her delicate beige pleated dress was paired with the same Christian Dior sandals we saw Shailene Woodley wear last week.

2011 Glamour Reel Moments Premiere


Zoe Saldana
Zoe Saldana attended the 2011 Glamour Reel Moments premiere which was held at the Directors Guild Of America in West Hollywood, California last night.
The actress, who directed the film, wore a Reed Krakoff Resort 2012 dress.
Her feminine, sporty purple wrap dress has a dazzling gunmetal-grey chainmail panel and black sheer overlay.
I love the mix of dark fall colours with the neutral pumps she paired with the look.
With all that bedazzlement, she didn’t need any accessories apart from her Lanvin earrings.
