OMG I Love The SAG Awards! - Silver Gowns  

Monday, 28 January 2008


L-R: Christina Applegate, Marion Cotillard, Ellen Pompeo and Brittany Snow

The 14th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards were held last night so we finally got to see all the big Hollywood stars come out in gorgeous designer gowns, after the Oscars were sadly cancelled earlier this month.

One of the biggest trends on the red carpet was sparkly silver gowns, which I loved!

Christina Applegate wore a light silver v-neck gown with layered skirt by Elie Saab with Neil Lane jewelry and bright red lips.

Beautiful French actress Marion Cotillard wore one of my absolute favourite dresses of the night, a strapless Nina Ricci gown with soft chiffon train with a delicate silver pendant by Chopard.

Ellen Pompeo chose a shiny silver strapless gown also by Nina Ricci from her Spring 2008 Collection which looked great with her hair in a sophisticated up do.

And Brittany Snow looked sexy in a silver sequined curve hugging gown and delicate drop earrings.

OMG I Love Paris Fashion Week Spring 2008 Couture - Armani Prive  

Tuesday, 22 January 2008

L-R: Hilary Swank, Ellen Pompeo, Dita Von Teese

Celebs including Hilary Swank, Ellen Pompeo and Dita Von Teese showed up to preview the Armani Prive Spring 2008 Couture Collection yesterday at Paris Fashion Week, I bet they loved it as much as I did!

Hilary looked like a little girl in Mummy's clothes in her black floaty Armani Fall 2006 dress whilst Dita looked flawless and fierce in a navy blue Armani Prive Fall 2007 skirtsuit. Guest of honour Ellen wore a stunning black off-the-shoulder Armani Prive Fall 2007 dress that would have looked much better had it been a size smaller and had she worn her hair in a sleek updo.


The collection was bold in structures, materials and colours with plenty to offer.

Skirtsuits were very popular with some of my favourites being the black puff sleeved jacket and pencil skirt combo, the navy ensemble with plunging neckline and the navy and white skirtsuit with fitted jacket and bubble skirt.

Another theme was flouncy ruffled skirts in pearl organza or patterned chiffon. Oversized bold coloured bangles were a cool accessory trend.


Sexy curvacious jackets in bold prints looked fantastic on the runway with simple skirts and I particularly love the high collars.

Some of the dresses were gorgeously girly and wearable in nudes and whites. My favourite is the strappy ballerina inspired dress with ruffled skirt.

Hair was worn in updos that were either slick and pulled back tightly or loose with side swept curls.

There were also more structured and strong looking dresses with puff ball skirts, large jewels and puff sleeves.


Some of the dresses were fabulously over-the-top as only Haute Couture can be!


My favourite part of the show had to be the gowns. There was the one shouldered silky white gown with silver detailing and the the strapless dusky pink ruffled gown both of which were beautiful.



But for all out glam it has to be either the one strap black gown with full chiffon skirt and detailed bodice, or, my personal fav, the sexy straples red gown with flamenco style ruffle skirt and black details on the bustier.
