Who Wore Marc Jacobs Better? Victoria Beckham or Lydia Hearst
2008-05-14 16:01:00 Victoria Beckham , the model for Marc Jacobs ' Spring 2008 advertising campaign, first wore this Marc Jacobs Spring 2008 dress to the 12th Annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in LA last year.It was the night the Spice Girls performed together for first time in 9 nine years, prior to kicking off their Reunion Tour, which was supposed to be a World Tour until they cut it short.Victoria wore her dress with a silver bra and black Givenchy heels.Model Lydia Hearst wore the same dress last night, when she attended the Entertainment Weekly/Vavoom Upfront Party in New York.The model who is set to appear Lily van der Woodsen's posh interior decorator Amelia on Gossip Girl, wore her dress without a bra, and was able to keep her modest fully covered.The colour of Victoria's dress looks more vibrant, but that might just be the lighting, but for daring to wear this dress without a bra Lydia wins this for me.I also like her hair up with this dress.

Christian Dior Cruise 2009
2008-05-14 13:09:00 As you would come to expect from John Galliano, his Christian Dior 's Cruise 2009 collection was extremely colourful and 60s inspired.The palette consisted of colours such as corals, fuchsias, magentas and limes giving the collection a very luxurious extravagant feel to it.Gallino sent models down the runway in capri pants, jackets, peasant blouses, tiered dresses, red carpet dresses and the odd animal print to get Sharon Stone very excited.The trapeze voluminous silhouette was very evident on the runway, which would be great to hiding those post-pregnancy bulges, which maybe why new mothers Jennifer Lopez and Christina Aguilera were in the front row.Standard Galliano details like bows, glizty embellishments and platform heels, went along with unusual pieces such as the large chic sombreros.These will surely be the next IT bags. Prepare to join the waiting lists.Source & Sourcehttp://www.redcarpet-fashionawards. com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss More About: Christian Dior , Resort

2008-05-14 10:43:00 Jade Jagger wore a dress from her own Jezebel collection to her Belvedere 'Jagger Dagger' New York Launch Party last month with an interesting pair of heels.Her heels are by shoe king Christian Louboutin, and these wedges are very unique as they have a cork finish with electric pink accents on the platform base and on the heel, but they still have trademark red sole.I have only found these heels online at Mytheresa.com for $947 / ?619 / £ 485.Source & Sourcehttp://www.redcarpet-fashionawards. com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss More About: Closet , Jade Jagger , Jade
Who Wore L.A.M.B. Better? Gwen Stefani or Kelly Osbourne
2008-05-13 23:02:00 A very emotional Gwen Stefani took to the stage at New York Fashion Week, after presenting her first LA.M.B. runway show last September, wearing a sequined hoodstooth mini dress and black heels, whilst carrying the hippest kid in Hollywood, her son Kingston Rossdale.The Spring 2008 collection was full of unique pieces that were quintessentially Gwen. Last year we saw many celebrities wearing L.A.M.B. clothing and carry her bags.Kelly Osbourne recently wore the same sequined dress when she performed at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival held at the Empire Polo Field in LA.The sometime singer/sometime presenter wore her dress with a black biker jacket and white heels.Despite both ladies being rock chicks, Kelly rocked it better.

Runway To Photo Shoot - Sarah Jessica Parker In Vogue US June 2008
2008-05-13 20:46:00 Could Sarah Jessica Parker look anymore breath-taking on the cover of Vogue US June 2008?She is shimmering in this golden Versace Fall 2008 gown, which accessorized is with Stephen Russell diamond-and-platinum earrings. Cartier emerald-cut diamond ring. Balenciaga by Nicolas Ghesquière crystal-and-pearl bracelet. Manolo Blahnik d'Orsay heels and the gorgeous Chris Noth in the background.This shoot is even better than I hoped it would be. It's sexy, vibrant and has a old Hollywood feel to it just to amp up the glamour. Vogue US seem to like putting Sarah Jessica Parker in gold on the cover of their magazine. For the September 2005 edition SJP also wore stunning golden gown, and looked equally stunning.Here are some extracts from Sarah's interview.On how she is similar to Carrie: "We will both try anything. I will try anything for Carrie, and I will try anything for me. In real life I never dressed the way she dressed, nor would I. I grew up in a house of matching. You know, our ...

2008-05-13 19:30:00 Christian Dior Cruise 2009 Collection, New YorkCharlize Theron , like Cate Blanchett and Gisele Bündchen really know how to radiate that WOW factor when they wear a great outfit, and this is one of those times for Charlize.She attended the Christian Dior Cruise 2008 collection, wearing a modified violet ruffled and tiered plunge-neck dress from the Christian Dior Cruise 2009 collection.Leighton Meester has not quite earned to right to wear, not yet on the runway ensembles like Charlize, but she does look amazing in this Christian Dior Fall 2007 belted strapless dress.Unfortunately I could not get a clear shot of Jennifer Lopez in her baby blue satin Dior dress, as she insisted on carrying that coat in every frame.What I love here are her Dior shoes and the back ruffled detail. What I don't like is the eye make-up. Less is more, Mrs Anthony.Christina Aguilera looks very prim in her white satin Dior ensemble.

Who Wore Donna Karan Better? Rosario Dawson, Christina Applegate or Kelly R
2008-05-12 23:15:00 Kelly Rowland looked beautiful in her strapless Donna Karan Fall 2007 cocktail dress with origami style detailing, which she wore to the Sex And The City premiere in London this evening. The problem with wearing a dress a few season old, is that the chances of another celebrity wearing it is high.In this case very high.Rosario Dawson first wore the forest green version of this Donna Karan Fall 2007 dress to the Grindhouse LA Premiere over a year ago, with a pair of black patent pumps.Christina Applegate also wore the lavender version of the dress to the 2007 American Music Awards last year with a pair of black satin pumps and a black clutch.Although Kelly was the last to wear this dress, for me she wore it the best, as her strappy sandals work better with the dress than the pumps.

Sex And The City London Premiere Red Carpet
2008-05-12 20:49:00 OK. I have had time to digest Sarah Jessica Parker 's ensemble and I have decided that it is not as bad as I first thought.The Alexander McQueen dress and especially the Philip Treacy hat is very Carrie-esqe in it's exuberance. But my first thoughts about the shoes are still the same...me no likey.Like Coco rightly said, I would rather this than a boring LDB.Kristin Davis is stunning in this interesting vintage raspberry chiffon Guy Laroche Couture dress from Decades Inc.Kristin has a sexy hourglass figure, and this dress extenuates this by pulling her in at the waist, whilst gently skimming her hips. The most interesting part of the dress for me is the light feathering at the hem.Kristin completes her look with a gold clutch and a cream pair of Christian Louboutin Crepe Satin Peep-Toe Pumps.Cynthia Nixon wore the most instantly recognisable dress. Her dress is from the Calvin Klein Fall 2008 collection.Some of you may recognise this dress as being similar to the dress worn by...

2008-05-12 16:45:00 Sarah Jessica Parker was on the cover of New York Magazine , promoting the upcoming Sex and the City movie, out May 28 (UK) and May 30 (US).On her husband Matthew Broderick: "Matthew doesn?t have enough friends [but mostly has gay friends in New York]. He?s very bright. He?s very dry, and he?s a contrarian, because he enjoys it. And he?s not soft, and he basically turns out to be a very good judge of character, and it just wasn?t his nature prior to having a child to be?he?s kind of immune to anything that even stank of being treacly or insipid."On her fans: "They?re always, always kind. And I think to see me on the streets of New York, in a place that they might imagine the character would be?it makes people feel good."On children being fair game for paparazzi: "It?s become more prevalent over the last four years, even more so the last 24 months. Now we just kind of eat it. It?s like empty calories. It?s s?. And it?s so base. I feel very ashamed, I feel like I?m like a?the town trol... More About: Photo , Sarah Jessica Parker , Runway

2008-05-12 13:20:00 As Factory Girl actress Sienna Miller made her way through the LAX International Airport homeward bound, in her Uggs, tights, a striped dress and a leather jacket, her Marc Jacobs Bruna quilted tote really stood out.The raspberry quilted leather tote has a belt which ties at the front with a gold buckle detail logo.You can purchase this bag from Net-A-Porter for only $1,295 /?1,070 / £760If you would prefer a similar but bigger, this Marc Jacobs Casey quilted shopper is available in the US and outside the US for the same price as the smaller tote.Sienna will soon be toting around her own bags, because Twenty8Twelve, the clothing label she co-designs with her sister Savannah Miller, has produced a 12-piece collection of tote bags, wallets and clutch bags.Styles include a roomy tote called the Harlech, and a structured handbag named the Lezark, through to Jezebel, a zippered clutch, and a small purse, Wallace.

Who Wore Burberry Prorsum Better? Christina Ricci or Fergie
2008-05-10 17:02:00 Both Christina Ricci and Fergie appeared on the worst dressed list of my Costume Institute Gala round up, but both look stunning in their individual editorials wearing this electric blue Burberry Prorsum Spring 2008 silk ruffled dress.Christina first appeared in UK Elle magazine's May 2008 edition, whereas Fergie appeared in May 2008 edition of Harper's Bazaar Singapore.Both women wear the dress well, but I prefer the Burberry Harlech studded belt which Fergie wore with her dress.

TopShop vs. Balenciaga
2008-05-09 18:33:00 It looks like TopShop have taken inspiration for their Floral Zip Jacket and skirt from Balenciaga 's Spring 2008 collection.The jacket is very similar to the Balenciaga jacket, as they both have the structured puff sleeves, high neck and blue floral colour element.The TopShop ensemble cost £100 in total, whereas the Balenciaga skirt alone cost £915.I have tried the TopShop ensemble on and it looks really fantastic, although I am not sure if I purchased it where I would wear it.

Red Carpet Trends - White Hot Shoes
2008-05-09 14:12:00 Regular readers will know that I am not a fan of white shoes, as they always conjure up images of the white shoes I was forced to wear at various weddings as a kid, and the stereotype of Essex girls in their white stilettos, but you can see from the Spring 2008 runway shoes, that white shoes can be hot.This particular trend very much crept up on me, as it is less obvious than the floral trend of the summer.On the red carpet we have, unexpectedly, seen white pumps, wedges and pointy stilettos appearing at many events.These white shoes really stand out against the red (or orange carpet), and make a bold statement which is, LOOK AT ME.SOLEIL Premium Shoe Boot £80Fendi Micro logo wedges £300Christian Louboutin Rodita zip platforms £405Source & Sourcehttp://www.redcarpet-fashionawards. com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss More About: Shoes , Red Carpet , Trends , White , Carpet
