CFDA Vogue Fashion Fund Award Meet the Winner & the best dressed

Last Night New Yorks most fabulous apples, showed up glistening and gleaming to support the CFDA/ Vogues Fashion Fund Award of which Paul Andrew was the worthy winner. Paul is in good company, as the prize has previously been awarded to Alexander Wang. Paul is a shoe designer is known for his chic, sleek city friendly designs and will receive $300,000 to invest in his line and most importantly, an industry mentorship (as well as a world of good publicity that comes with winning such an award). Runners up Eva Zuckerman and Ryan Roche won $100,000 and priceless industry mentorships. Needless to say, the event was rich with people dressed fabulously enjoy my best dressed picks :)

Joan Smalls with winner Paul Andrew. Come on look happy Paul!

Joan Keeps it casual and fresh with this laid back Stella McCartney dress, whilst contouring and smokey eyes ensuring her eyes and face pop. Great choice of nude shoes, by Paul Andrew of course, which ensure that her legs are elongated, whilst complimenting her skin tone beautifully.

Lilly Aldridge in all her bronzed glory stuns with this salmon dress, by Jaun Carlos Obando which elegantly compliments her skin and accessorises with a shimmering Edie Parker clutch.

Two legends battle it out with style referenced from two different eras. Both look stunning. Anna Wintour & Stella McCartney.

Zac Posen always shows up with a beautiful date on his tailored sleeve. Tonight it is the stunning Liu Wen in this stunning textured backless white jump-suit.

Serena Williams looks like a tall glass of something beautiful in this stunning blue Zac Posen dress.

Jenna Lyons plays with shapes and comes up winning, with this unique look.

I love this on Eva Hewson. Winter witch look- top and skirt by Prabal Gurung

Anne Hathaway's best looks of the week

As her new film Intertellar launches, Anne Hathaway has been a busy social bee. I have been in a love affair with Hathaway since The Princess Diary, and similar to in that brilliant movie, her style transformation has gone from strength to strength over the years. This season Anne Hathaway's style is in a classic mature phase. I love Hathaway because she is unapologetically herself, pale, brunette, lean- instead of swapping for fake tan, blonde and boobs, she embraces who she is and makes it work. The result is her style is a refreshing window into her personality- I gather she is genuine, quirky and sweet- with a dark side. If I ever meet you Hathaway, don't let me down!

Hathaway stuns in a favourite of mine: All black, red popping lips. Working with texture, is a great way to spice up a black outfit. Anne wears a silk top with a velvet skirt and adds further intrigue with sheer polkadot tights from Calzedonia.

For this day look Anne goes monochrome, again playing with texture on the black skirt she also sports this interesting wiggly hem thing. Love it.

Anne makes this simple silk gown her own by wearing subtle jewellery which just makes her look cool and laid back. I heard a quip the other day that Anne Hathaway isn't sexy? Well take a look at this and eat your heart out. What could be more sexy than being obviously comfortable and effortlessly confident in your own skin? Thats a real style tip for all of us. Keep doing you girl.
