2008 Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala - Blue Hues  

Monday, 12 May 2008

Take note - different shades of soft blues were seen on some of the most fashionable stars at the Costume Institute Gala. This is definitely a trend to watch!

Supermodel Claudia Schiffer looked feminine in an ice blue, ruffled, Valentino Spring 2008 Couture gown. I loved her sparkly silver clutch but her orange make-up was a little scary!

Up and coming fashionista Camilla Belle wore one of the most popular designer's of the night; a stunning one shouldered, turquoise gown from Armani Prive's Spring 2008 Collection. The tiered effect almost looked like waves - gorgeous!

My favourite blue gown though was Jennifer Lopez's one shouldered blue gown with an exquisite jewelled neckline. She also wore beautiful jewelled accessories.

I love that she's embracing her new, softer, figure now that she's given birth to her twins. It's nice to see a celeb not hung up on getting every single muscle toned and tightened right after having a baby!! And for once, she got her hair and make-up right and didn't go over the top.

Claudia Schiffer in Chanel Spring 2008  

Monday, 3 March 2008

Supermodel Claudia Schiffer was in the front row at the Chanel Fall 2008 RTW Collection at Paris Fashion Week on Friday looking cool in a navy shift with contrasting red side-panels from the Chanel Spring 2008 RTW Collection.

Like the model on the Spring 2008 runway, claudia accessorised with a matching red clutch. I prefer the model's two-tone navy and red sandals to Claudia's red pumps, but both look great with the dress, and Claudia's ice blonde hair brightened up the whole look.

Love this bold look!

Want Some Dom Perignon With The Celebs?  

Thursday, 28 February 2008

Claudia Schiffer, Kelly Brook and Sophie Ellis-Bextor were all at the Launch of Dom Perignon OEnotheque Vintage 1995 in London on Tuesday.

Who knew Dom Perignon could draw such a stylish crowd?

Claudia's retro blonde waves and red lipstick looked stunning with her grey shift dress and patent black pumps.

I'm not too keen on Kelly Brook's outfit. For a woman who's considered one of the world's sexiest, she sure does dress dowdy a lot! While red is usually a hot colour, the style of this gown is boring and I hate the length; it should be to the floor if it's gonna be ful-length! Plus as an aside, isn't the dress a little see-through?!

My favourite outfit was Sophie Ellis-Bextor's. The singer, who was on this weeks Project Catwalk as the celeb the designers had to dress, had on the most perfect nude pumps. I love them! They are ideal for lenghtening legs, and neutral so they can be worn with any colours.

Sophie kept the rest of her look classic and flirty with a short black skirt and white satin top, brightened up with her red lipstick.

Overall a pretty stylish event!

OMG I Love Paris Fashion Week Spring 2008 Couture - Chanel  

Wednesday, 23 January 2008


L-R: Claudia Schiffer, Diane Kruger, Blake Lively

Simple, classic and youthful, the Chanel Spring 2008 Couture show at Paris Fashion Week yesterday was my favourite so far and also had one of my favourite young celebs in attendance - Blake Lively!

Blake modernised 1920s flapper chic with her pleated blakc dress, long fine-knit grey cardigan and layered pearl necklaces. She finished the look with black tights and gorgeous black pumps.

Also at the event was fashionista Diane Kruger who wore a similar black Chanel Resort 2008 dress but with a halter neck top and bare legs. She added a fun touch with her yellow buckled Chanel Fall 2007 pumps and sequined bag.

Supermodel Claudia Schiffer rounded out the elite front row in a prim and proper puff skirt and bow detailed waist belt. She was also rocking black patent Christian Louboutin, Joli Noeud Dorcet 957 sandals.

The show it self was like under-the-sea ice princess full of whites, greys, blacks, silvers and peaches.

Short skirts came in many shapes, the most popular being the draped shell shaped skirts and the pleated ones.

Coats were thigh length with cropped sleeves and rounded collars. The look was soft but tailored with military style detailing.

All the models wore flat pumps in silver, black, white or black and white adding to the young look of the clothes.

There were plunging v-neck blazers with Parisian style brooches used as fasteners and sequins were used for sublte glamour.


A possible trend to replace last years leggings, was the skinny raw-edged crops worn on the knee with pretty long-length tops.

Chanel hit the trend for structured dresses perfectly with his strapless khaki dress, his silver sequined number with three tiered skirt and the strappy silver and white striped dress.


At the other extreme were the soft girly dresses with feathered edges in ivory and peach worn with sexy one shoulders or beautiful beaded details.

All the dresses were worn with sheer white or black tights.

The classic LBDs were modernised with draped skirts, bows, feathered edges and jewels. I adore the one pictured in the middle above!

The models wore their hair in dramatic updos with large quiffs and tiara style sequined bands.

Then came the gowns! There was the one shouldered, geometric shaped white gown that was cut mid-calf and the tiered black and white gown with stunning neckline.


But my favourites were the classic and glamorous black gowns. One was a strapless chiffon number with volumous skirt and feathered details that looked like it was made for the curves of Dita Von Teese, whilst the other was a strapless gown with structured bodice and sheer skirt and sleeves.
