The BAFTA's!!!

Yes honey, I am loving the parade of awesome that was the BAFTA's last night. Headed by my all time favourite, Lupita Nyongo. Colour blocking like she was born to do in this stunning emerald Dior gown. Next for a mention has to be Naomi Harris with her daring plunge neck line and racy slit...some how she still manages to look classy despite baring some serious (bronzed and gorgeous) skin. Helen Mirren always shows up, and shows that there is noting better then a woman who knows what suits her, with years of experience and a portfolio of fabulous, Helen out shines many younger ladies. Next for a mention has to be Brangelina who turned up in matching suits. I told ya'll before ( seriously, check below) suits for women are in- so get your self suited and booted this winter for an understated smouldering sexy.

Oh and I added David Gandy because....he's David Gandy- Happy Monday,

2014 The women show the men how it's done

I have been saying it for a while now, a well tailored suit never hurt no body... and now it appears thats true for women too. Anne Hathaway and Salma Hayek boldly take a walk on the man side, and it so pays off. Salma in Yves Saint Laurent mensware by Hedi Silmane, who is noutorious for his love of fitted rock star style suits. Take a look at them both, what do you think. I think it is effortlessly sexy.

At A Glance Best Dressed

This year has been particularly fashionable with Lupita Nyongo coming top of my list. The 12 years a slave star has quickly made her presence known on the red carpet fashion scene, and promises to be a force to be reckoned with when it comes to the battle of best dressed. This week she effortlessly wins my vote in this complimenting purple jump suit by Cushnie et Ochs. The colour and the fabric are so complimenting to her skin tone, making her shimmer and radiate from head to toe, of course that million dollar smile doesn't hurt either...



Next is Karlie Kloss in a white Dior Dress, now as for consistent fabulosity Karlie Kloss does it for me. Unlike some stars who get it so right and then soooo wrong, Karlie pretty much always gets it right. This crisp, simply and flatteringly cut white dress coupled withs sexy black stilettos is the kind of effort simplicity I love her for.


And Naomi embodies an Egyptian Queen in this stunning Michael Kors gown. Shimmer sway sparkle girl!

Oscars Glam : Best Dressed 2013

Well if you're anything like me, barricaded in by the relentless icy grip of winter, its nice to see someone, somewhere wearing something strapless. These Hollywood stars made me smile, vicariously enjoying their moment in the sun. I mean forget the dresses , I would swap with a homeless man in Hollywood right now. Any whoo these dresses were too beautiful to not share so here it is my Annual Oscars Best Dressed.

1.
 Giorgio Armani

Boom - that's one sexy Red Head!Jessica Chastain expertly avoids making her fair skin washed out with the wrong colours. This beautiful golden nude dress with art deco detail  crystal overlay is to die for, making her my favourite look of the day. 
L A W // of life know your look & work it be you to the fullest.
Kristen Stewart in Reem Acra

This is bitter sweet for me because I don't love K-Stew -  she usually looks grungy, dirty and awkward but  this is none of these things. I love how she looks in this beautiful Reem Acra Couture dress. I love Reem Acra ( see earlier NYFW post) and Kristen  makes this gown look young and chic. So yeah, she's alright... it turns out a beautiful dress can change everything. Go Kristen.


Woohoo! My girl,  the beautiful Kerry Washington is all shades of happening in this Mui Mui gown. Elegantly understated, Kerry decides against jewellery and allows the bold neck embellishment to do the talking. She looks a million bucks.


Valentino knows how to dress a woman , and Jenifer Aniston looks beautiful in this bold red evening gown, with a luxuriously full skirt and sculpted waist.


Charlize Theron lets her face do the talking with her cropped haircut and simplistic Dior white gown, complimented subtly with Harry Winston Jewellery.



I may just like this because it's Jenifer Hudson and I am impressed with how great she looks for losing all that weight- I don't usually like front slits ( tacky) but I do like the fabric and shimmer of this midnight blue fitted dress. So yes I guess its not just Jen, I do love this Valentino gown.


George Clooney's plus one Stacy Keibler ensures all eyes are on her in this bold yet subtle, powerful yet elegant Naeem Khan metallic gown.


                      Amy Adams floats on a cloud in this dreamy Oscar De La Renta gown.

 Guilty pleasure here as this gold may be criticised by some for being a bit tacky, but I just love how regal Catherine Zeta Jones looks in this Zuhair Murad gown.



Sandra Bullock looks as lovely as the night sky ( corny but whatever) in this Elie Saab beaded gown

Oscar De La Renta NYFW- Galliano Speculation

Ooh I hear from a little birdie ( ok not just one, its been a hot topic) that John Galliano has set up camp at Oscar de la Renta. The foot in mouth designer has been on the untouchable list since dismissal at Dior, with only a few bold enough to make press ' eye contact'. Well today the Oscar De La Renta  unvailed his AW13 collection, the first since getting in bed with Galliano- leaving the fashion tweeters to speculate as to how much influence he had on the collection ( great PR tactic). Well I dont know about you but the accentuation of the the female form and the style of these jackets look suspiciously Dior New Look to me. Well who ever has had their finger in this design pot I like it. Whats your verdict?

My 2 cents?

The accentuated and defined waists may be very Galliano Dior, but the experimentation and expression through fabrics is all Oscar De La Renta- As for the drama- I would say thats the both of them ;)
