One To Watch In 2012 Award - Mila Kunis

Ever since Mila Kunis starred in Black Swan late last year her profile has risen stratospherically, she is now a Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award nominee - Mila has since been attending all of the major Award shows in the biggest designer names let alone being on numerous fashion magazine covers.

While Mila has been on the block for a few years but its only in 2011 that the world really took notice of the beautiful actress, that and the fashion world too. Having worn every major designer out there I can't wait to see what she has in store for us in 2012!

Best Dressed Promo Star of 2011 - Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

This beautiful lady has had one hell of a year, from being one of the most successful British models of the moment to landing a leading role in one of this years blockbusters - Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is here to stay!
Rosie promoted ''Transformers: Dark of the Moon'' all summer travelling to all major cities of the World and one thing became obvious: she was a fashion icon in the making!

I'm not sure anybody has had such an amazing run while promoting one movie, I can't say anything bad about any of her choices because they were all flawless and she just exudes elegance and poise. She wowed me at every Premiere so that's why she gets my vote as 'Best Dressed Promo Start of 2011' and of course, here are some of her best looks...


Photocall in Brazil wearing Michael Kors. So divine. 


At Photocall in Moscow in pink Michael Kors Spring 2011. 


At the Moscow Premiere looking sensational in Gucci Fall 2011. 


At Berlin Premiere in dazzling Naeem Khan Fall 2011.


At London Premiere in Burberry Prorsum (what else?), probably my favourite of all. 


Last but certainly not least, Rosie finished her tour with a stunning Antonio Berardi Fall 2011 gown which wowed the crowds.




Note to all actresses out there: this is how you become a fashion icon in under a month, notepads at the ready! 

Best Dressed Female Entertainer 2011 - Rihanna

It's been the year of Rihanna for me - she has risen above and beyond other females in the music business with her fiery tracks and saucy lyrics but fashion is where the heart is for me.
I've been incredibly impressed with Rihanna this year, the red hair was the first thing that hit me (in a good way) and then came the beautiful and unique looks she's been sporting ever since. She doesn't make too many public appearances but her style at Awards shows is impeccable and the reason I gave her the 'Best Dressed Female Entertainer' Award.

She's turned into a real fashion force to be reckoned with sporting everything from Oscar de la Renta gowns to Max Azria suits - and not forgetting she landed a major American Vogue cover which shot her up to instant fashion icon status, its her year and she knows it!


In Elie Saab Fall 2010 Haute Couture at the American Music Awards, 2010. This is my absolute favourite look from Rihanna.

My 2011 Fashion Awards.

As 2011 draws to an end there's the inevitable question of 'Who rocked the fashion world this year'?, well the answer is a lot of women did! I couldn't possibly name just one person so I compiled a few 'Awards' to some starlets that I think deserve recognition and got on with it, the inspiration for this comes from RedCarpet-FashionAwards.com a blog that I'm obsessed with so I take no credit whatsoever but I thought it would be fun to compile my personal favourites of the year in a similar style.


I've made up a few 'Awards' such as 'Best Brand Ambassador' and 'Most Interesting Jewellery Collection' to my awards lists so in due time they will be rolling out!


In the mean time, go through my old posts to get some hints!


I'll be back soon!

Happy Birthday to Christina Aguilera!!

Yesterday was the 31st Birthday of my favourite music diva, Christina Aguilera! I know I'm one day late but its never too late! Anyone who knows me well enough knows how much I adore her: her voice and her songs make my life and I've been a fan of hers since Genie in a Bottle (which I still listen to, lol) and she's probably the only artist that I insist of owning every CD made by her, I just love her and always will.

I would like to wish her the Happiest Belated Birthday ever and success in all parts of her career and personal life. I cannot wait for her up-coming album which is rumoured to be released in 2012 so something to look forward to!

Happy 31st Birthday X-Tina!




Beautiful in a red D&G dress while promoting 'Burlesque'. 

Looking heavenly at the AMA's in 2008 in a beautiful Elie Saab Couture gown.





I love nothing more than a 'Dirrty' Xtina!

Claire Danes in Valentino - Valentino Garavani Virtual Museum Launch Party

Claire Danes attended the 'Valentino Garavani Virtual Museum Launch Party' on December 7th along with a host of other high profile celebrities. Claire isn't a regular at red carpet events so I was pleasantly surprised to see her take a fashion risk - anyone who knows Claire knows she is very safe and not the biggest risk taker so of course my jaw dropped when I saw her in this red dress, wow!

- Valentino Spring 2012 Lace Embroidered Dress


Claire wore a beautiful Valentino Spring 2012 scarlet lace dress which was presented in blue on the runway however this colour seems to make a bigger impact. It's one of the first times I've really taken notice of Claire on the red carpet and I was totally blown away by this - its a dare for her standards, the colour and the beautifully cut lace are wonderful against her fair skin and blonde hair. She has really stepped her game up!


Claire completed her fashion forward look with Kohl-rimmed eyes which is a first for her but a definite upgrade - she looks so stunning with dramatic make-up it was difficult to even recognise her at first. I'm loving everything about Diane at this point, the dress, the make-up, the hair..it's all perfect.

Freida Pinto In Chanel - Chanel Paris-Bombay Pre-Fall 2012 Show

The beautiful Indian actress Freida Pinto attended the Chanel Pre-Fall 2012 show in Paris on December 7th. She was also the guest of honour at the Indian inspired show, aptly named 'Paris-Bombay' - the show itself was a beautiful organza of Indian inspired clothes with breathtaking colours and craftsmanship from the Chanel team, plus who can forget the amazing set, all that food and decorations had every attendee in awe, well done Mr. Lagerfeld! 

Dress: Chanel Spring 2012 

Heels: Roger Vivier ''Prismick'' Booties


Frida wore a stunning sky-blue Chanel Spring 2012 dress (obviously) to the show and I must say, the colour is absolutely divine on her skin tone. I'm loving the appropriate length and the volume of the dress itself, it certainly is a stand-out piece and very Spring 2012 so she gets top marks from me. Frida accessorized with black open toed Roger Vivier booties and a navy belt to add some edginess into her girlie dress. 


Frida completed her chic look with tussled waves and her signature smoky eye, perfection from head-to-toe! She suits Chanel so much I wouldn't be surprised if Karl made her a brand ambassador.

Diane Kruger in Emilio Pucci - 2011 UNICEF Ball

The stunning Diane Kruger attended the 2011 UNICEF Ball on December 9th after a slight red-carpet hiatus. Diane is a fashion force to be reckoned with and this was no exception, she chose a look from one of my favourite designers, Emilio Pucci and chose one of my favourite looks from the Spring 2012 collection, lucky or what?

Dress: Emilio Pucci Spring 2012 Sheer Lace Gown


Heels: Brian Atwood ''Marcella'' Pumps


Diane looked her usual best in this Emilio Pucci Spring 2012 sheer lace gown - a favourite of mine from the collection so I have major envy at the moment! Her stunning black dress is, in my opinion quite a unique looking number because of its shape and different materials, black dresses can look so same-y but this stands out so much, especially on a blonde, giving a beautiful effect. 
Also, it gives Diane a curvier silhouette which is never a bad thing, I'm in love with this dress dammit! 


Turning to the side has never looked sexier! One turn from Diane and we're seeing a lot of side boob, no problemo - it's tasteful and Diane has enough class to pull it off. She paired her gorgeous gown with red Brian Atwood 'Marcella' pumps, just like the runway version and it also matched her red nails! So breathtaking, I'm in awe. 


Diane also showcased a darker hair colour at the event which I'm definitely liking but ultimately I will always love her as a cool blonde. Her hair was places in a care-free up do with pieces framing her face while her make-up wasn't fussy with only a little smoke on the eyes. Gorgeous as always.

Jessica Biel in Valentino - 'New Year's Eve' New York Premiere

Jessica Biel stepped out at the Premiere of her star-studded movie ''New Year's Eve'' on December 8th. She looked beautifully radiant in her stunning gown which was one of my favourites in Valentino's Spring 2012 collection - trust Jessica Biel to pick the sexiest and most body hugging gown, its truly a dream to look at.

Dress: Valentino Spring 2012 Long-sleeve Beaded Gown


Shoes: Christian Louboutin ''Anna'' Sandal


Jessica looked the best she has in recent years in this stunning drop-waist Valentino creation - lucky girl for getting her hands onto the Spring 2012 collection and for picking the most beautiful gown. The colour itself is stunning and so sophisticated let alone all of the beading, crystal embellishment and craftsmanship that obviously went into making the dress. 


Jessica's jaw-dropping gown (my jaw actually dropped.) was accessorized with a grey Valentino clutch and gold Christian Louboutin ''Anna'' sandals - both appropriate pieces although I wish she'd chosen the complementary runway clutch but none the less, she looks stunning and did this beautiful dress the justice it deserved. 


Jessica looked breathtaking - her stunning brunette locks had plenty of volume while her green eyes were accented with eyeliner to give that extra pop. If there's one thing you can't deny about Jessica is that she's absolutely gorgeous, wow!

Charlize Theron in Antonio Berardi - 'The Late Show With David Letterman'

One of my favourite actresses, Charlize Theron stopped by 'The Late Show with David Letterman' recently and was snapped looking like a goddess in a beautiful Antonio Berardi fitted dress.
She was there to promote her new movie 'Young Adult' and here's hoping we see a lot more of her! 

Dress: Antonio Berardi

Heels: Tom Ford Velvet Sandals

Charlize stunned in this bi-colour Antonio Berardi pink and black dress which fitted her athletic figure perfectly. She looked as gorgeous and statuesque as always and keeps proving she's getting better with age, damn! There's never a time where Charlize doesn't exude sexiness and this is no exception, she's an amazon! She accessorized with strappy Tom Ford heels which are definitely on my wish-list! 


Charlize looked like a goddess as usual, her blonde hair was in romantic waves and her make-up was perfect with a pink lip completing her stunning look.

Rachel McAdams in Marchesa - 'Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows' LA Premiere

The stunning Rachel McAdams attended the Premiere of Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows' in LA recently wearing one of her favourite designers, Marchesa.
As always Rachel is the picture of elegance and grace in her gorgeous gown, her and Marchesa make a lovely duo!


Dress: Marchesa Resort 2012


Rachel's long sleeved embroidered gown is perfect for the Premiere as it definitely has a Hollywood glamour about it and of course, it gives her a beautiful silhouette. She's always classy and appropriate on the red carpet and this is no exception. 


The cowl-back detail is also stunning, it gives a peek at her gorgeous figure without being too in your face, just the right amount of sexy. The colour looks great on her and I'm glad to be seeing her back on the red carpet. She accessorized with Christian Louboutin ankle boots. 


Rachel as always looked sensational, her make-up was light with a hint of matte pink lipstick and her hair was in a intricate up-do with wispy pieces framing her gorgeous face.
