The Seventh Annual Comedy for a Cure Best Dressed!  

Thursday, 10 April 2008

The Tuberous Sclerosis Alliance's Seventh Annual Comedy for a Cure was held in Hollywood last Sunday and many celebs turned up to support the cause which raises money to help find a cure for Tuberous Sclerosis.

The best dressed on the night for me was Desperate Housewives star Teri Hatcher, who was also honoured for her support of the cause. Teri set off her tan with a gorgeous strapless orange chiffon dress and accessorised with silver (though I would have chosen gold with orange).

Also looking nice in a curve enhancing dress was Melina Kanakaredes who wore a satin green pencil dress by David Meister with cap sleeves and a skinny waist belt. She also wore a statement pendant necklace for a simple, classic look.

And finally we have Canadian actress Emmanuelle Vaugier who looked nice in a a little navy tie front dress. She's way too skinny and would look much better with a bit of meat on her bones but I do adore her printed clutch bag and matching gold strappy sandals with printed bow. I don't know that I would have worn them at the same time as the matching dress though, it's a bit overkill.

What do you think of the fashion choices??

Idol Gives Back - The Good and Not So Good Fashions  

Monday, 7 April 2008

American Idol wants to remind you all that it is not just a hugely successful reality TV show produced (and presented) by super-rich men in suits whose pockets it is happily lining....they also do some good in the world, and no not just because it gave us Kelly Clarkson!

Idol Gives Back is a foundation which helps children and young people in poverty in the USA and around the world through various means.

The Idol Gives Back 2008 show was filmed yesterday in L.A. and loads of stars turned up, performed, and presented. Some looked casual, some looked glam, some looked good, some looked not so good.

Miley Cyrus (left) performed at the show and she looked good in casual skinny jeans and a cute sequined, layered, camisole. She looked young and fun but I'm not fussed on the boots.

Also looking good was Teri Hatcher in a tailored black blazer, long white top and jeans. Wonder if her and Ryan shared any awkward moments?!

Looking not-so-good in their casual outfits were Fergie (left), who was shocking in shiny leather leggings, and Mariah Carey who was boring and cheap looking in a black vest and gold chain belt.

Some stars dressed up a bit more though, like Geri Halliwell who debuted new boyfriend, dancer Ivan FlipZ Velez, at the event. She wore the blue-grey version of a Herve Leger dress once worn by Rihanna in pink. She looked hot and her figure is amazing these days! In shape, but not too skinny as she has been in the past.

Reese Witherspoon presented at the event and looked demure and pretty in a simple LBD. All the details were on trend though: a waist belt, sheer top section and ruffles. Her bold red peep toes set of the whole look!


Looking not so good all glammed up was Idol judge Paula Abdul. The sweetheart neckline, red dress is actually pretty sexy, but poor Paula just always looks a mess! I don't know how she does it......but I think the secret's in the 80s bouffant hair.

I love the style of Carrie Underwood's off the shoulder Farah Angsana gown, but it seems a little OTT for this event, considering most people were in jeans! Plus I hate the iridescent colour orange/pink colour!

As a side note, Carrie was asked about rumoured boyfriend Chase Crawford and she said that they had broken up a couple of months ago via text because it just wasn't working so it's weird that it's all coming out in the press now. She said it was mutual. Hmm. Dumping via text, how classy!

OMG I Love The SAG Awards! - Floral Details  

Monday, 28 January 2008


L-R: Teri Hatcher, America Ferrera, Cate Blanchett and Kate Hudson

Feminine floral details were all over the red carpet at the 14th Annual SAG Awards in different variations.

Teri Hatcher was a bit of a turn up for the books looking gorgeous (for a change!) in a cream Badgley Mischka gown. The figure hugging strapless gown was one of the best of the night and was covered in a subtle floral print.

The Ugly Betty ladies were 3 for 3 in the great dresses department when America Ferrera showed up in this beautiful grey Monique Lhuillier. America's curves looked great in the fitted gown which has one shoulder and was covered in a a delicate floral lace.

Pregnant Cate Blanchett kept her bump covered in a loose fitting, strapless black Balenciaga gown which was covered in a multicoloured floral print. As she's pregnant I'll give her a pass but this isn't one of Cate's best red carpet looks. It's not bad but it could have had more shape. Just because you're pregnant, doesn't mean you have to wear a tent!

Finally in floral was the eternal hippy Kate Hudson who wore a pink floral Balmain Spring 2008 gown. The straples chiffon number was very much in Kate's earthy style and I love the beaded bandeau top.

Fashion Really Does ROCK!  

Friday, 7 September 2007

I've got a massive post for you all from the Fashion Rocks event yesterday. There were so many stars there, some getting it oh so right and some oh so wrong. Here are all the ones I could find from my least favourite, right down to me fav look of the night!


So we start with Teri Hatcher who looked a bit like a keyboard in her striped black and white gown and silver heels. The style of the dress is ok, in fact the top half is really nice but the fabric and stripes look ridiculous!

Also in a bit of a weird outfit was Tyra Banks who ruined a perfectly nice LBD with ankle boots, and an incredibly strange hairstyle. Does she not own a mirror?!

Actress Gina Gershon also attended, and while her outfit wasn't that bad it was a little underdressed for Fashion Rocks. Her black top with a ribbon was cute but maybe it would have been more appropriate if it was a dress.

The fabulous Kimora Lee was also there wearing a bin bag. I don't like this dress lol. Kimora rocks it anyway but she could have done a lot better in the style stakes.

The talented Alicia Keys showed up wearing a long black dress and strappy black sandals. Ok so this outfit isn't that bad but it's not that good either. The shoes like cheap and the length of the dress is just wrong. Her hair looks great though, very 70s!

Another singer at the event was Fergie who performed with Aerosmith and Ludacris. Whilst on the red carpet Fergie was sporting an unusual LBD. I like the skirt but the top half is just over the top and fussy. And why do her eyebrows look so weird? The shoes are cute though!

Ciara looked really beautiful yesterday in a floor length, pure white, gown. The style makes Ciara, who can sometimes look manly, seem really feminine and the silver details on the straps give her a bit of sparkle. I still think she could have done better though because there's nothing exciting about it.

Mary. J Blige made a style statement in this white trench coat worn as a dress a black berret and a pair of patent black courts. This look is very unusual but for some reason I kinda like it. What do you think?

Sophia Bush looked all sweet and smiley and wore a real cute little great dress to the event which she teamed with stylish black tights and patent black courts. I like this overall look but I'm not sure about the cut of the dress, could have been a little more flaterring.

Nicole Richie also showed up, baby bump and all, and combined the black and white theme of the evening into this zebra patterned chiffon gown. I'm not sure about the pattern but the style of the dress is really beautiful and Nicole looks great now she's gaining a bit of weight. Her bright gold accessories were bang on trend too.

The gorgeous Jessica Alba was on the red carpet looking sleek in her long black slinky dress and slicked back hair. I like the daringness of the chain detail down the dress but I don't really like the fit.

Country star LeAnn Rimes knows that sometimes simplicity is best so she showed up looking lovely ina simple black pencil dress with a black waist belt and black courts. Simple but effective.

It was nice to see Mya show up since I don't hear a lot about her lately and I'm a big fan. She bucked the black and white trend and instead opted for a tulip skirted brown bandeau dress with a waist belt and brown sandals. The colour and shape of the dress suited her really well and her hair looked lovely.

Buffy star Michelle Trachtenberg turned up looking like an ice queen with her pale skin, dark hair and loose white and silver dress. She looked very stylish and accessorised with a really cute clutch.

Michelle's love rival, Ashlee Simpson (Ashley now dates Michelle's ex boyfriend, Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz) opted for the complete opposite look of blonde tanned california girl in a fitted black mini dress. The fit of this dress is really hot and the neckline and sleeves make it look stylish instead of trashy.

For more pics of Ashlee

Carmen Electra wore a really cute vintage looking cream lace dress with a black ribbon and black peep toes to match. She also added a splash of colour with some daring bright red lipstick but I think this outfit would have looked a million times better if she'd tied her hair back off her face, it's just too much down like that.

For more pics of Carmen

Another country star at the event was ex American Idol-er Carrie Underwood who wore an absolutely beattiful little white dress. The cut is unusual but really flattering and her white clutch and gold sandals compliment the outfit pefectly. Her hair looks adorable in this side swept pony tail and her make-up is simple and elegant. All in all I think this look is great!

And finally to our top three. The bronze goes to the lovely Ashanti, who dazzled at the event in a goregous sparkly grey pencil skirt and a black vest tucked in. She accessorised with black peep toes with bows on the front, a black clutch and loads od stylish silver bangles. Her eye make-up was hot, her hair bouncy but my only complaint is that the black lining under the skirt should have been the length of the skirt because it looks a bit silly like that and keeps taking my attention from the rest of the outfit!

Silver goes to Mischa Barton who actually turned up in a sleek metallic silver floor length gown. She looks statuesque and elegant here with her hair pulled back and subtle green eye make-up. This outfit is definalty an attention grabber and Mischa's the perfect person to carry it off.

And my gold look of the night goes to........Jennifer Lopez! Am I biased? I'm trying not to be but I do think she looked the best there! She wore this beautiful black flapepr inspired dress witha plunging neckline and gold sparkle. She teamed the flattering dress with unusal black stilettos that had roses on the front, a funky black and diamond wrap around bracelet and gold dangly earrings. Her skin was glowing as usual, her gold eye make-up matched perfectly and I even like her burgandy nail polish. Everything about this outfit is great!
