Anne's 8!

Presenting the Oscars must be one of the most amazing yet terrifying things in the world. It would be an absolute honour however having all of Hollywood (and the world) watching you live would be freakin' scary (to put it mildly)

Anne Hathaway had the pleasure of hosting last night with the gorgeous James Franco. The one perk of presenting is the fact you can change your outfit as much as you want! Whilst all the poor guests had to pick ONE dress to wear to the biggest event of the year, host Anne picked 8!

You would think this would mean 8 fabulous outfits as she would've had designers dropping dresses at her feet!?
Well apparently not...
Take a look and judge for yourselves...

Topshop Unique is TOP DOG!

Topshop's highly anticipated A/W '11 show at London Fashion Week did not disappoint. Influenced by Disney's 101 Dalmations and its leading lady Cruella De Ville the show was a (dog's) treat! 

With lots of Fur (fake - of course!) and spotted prints on jackets and stoles, the collection was inspired. The Canine theme was mixed with a classy 1930's elegant twist. The tea dresses, pencil skirts and Art-Deco prints were a great touch.

To keep with the Doggy style (insert crude joke here) the models has black painted noses and the hair was piled into 2 buns on each side to resemble doggy ears! This show was definitely one of my faves of LFW so far and is sure to inspire many Copycats! Or should that be Copydogs?

RED CARPET FASHION: The 2011 BRIT AWARDS!

The Brit Awards are the biggest celebration of British Music and every year we are treated to a selection of great performances and some fabulous fashion. This year the trophy was given a makeover, designed by the one and only Vivienne Westwood.

Performances last night included Rihanna, Take That and Adele. Tinie Tempah stole the show with 2 of the biggest awards; British Breakthrough act and Best British Single.  Poor Cheryl Cole was left award less after being robbed of the award for Best British Female (Who is Laura Marling?!?!) but at least she looked amazing! Rihanna won Best International Female Artist and screamed 'I'm the only girl in the World!' - Gotta Love Her! Also well done to Jessie J who beat Beyonce and Katy Perry to the Critics Choice award!

I wasn't completely bowled over by the fashion last night but I have managed to pick a few faves...

Rihanna Looks Freakin' Awesome in this Christian Dior Masterpiece!



Cheryl Looks stunning in this black, slink, sequin dress - she may have gone home empty handed at least she did it in style!

 

Jessie J in Vivienne Westwood - Just like the trophies!

The 'Jennifer'

That hair, Those legs, That smile...


Jennifer Aniston. Wow. Yesterday I went to see 'Just go with it' the new Jennifer Aniston film with Adam Sandler. RomComs on Valentines Day might be a bit of a cliche however this one was AMAZING. I loved it! Literally a laugh a minute and one of the best Romantic Comedies we've had in a while.

Throughout the film I was drooling over Ms Aniston - trying to figure out how Brad left this beauty for a blood drinking home wrecker. At 42 she has the most toned, tanned legs; nicer than anyone even half her age!

Her secret? A £10.25 miracle worker from Nip and Fab. The Dry Leg Fix leaves your legs feeling full  of moisture and shine!

Jennifer is iconic from Head to Toe... From her sky-high pins to the top her a beautifully styled hair.

Her hairstyles are some of the most sought after cuts in the world. Her haircut in Season 2 of  Friends, known as The 'Rachel' was copied by millions of fans all over!

 

As well as being the epitome of 'Girl next door' Jennifer Aniston is a global style icon. Her knack for using simple shapes, neutral colours and classic designers means she always looks Fabulous!
Here are some of my fave fashion moments...

RED CARPET FASHION: The Grammy's 2011

One of the biggest celebrations of music; The Grammy Awards are much anticipated and never disappoint... that is when it comes to Fashion. The who's who of the music industry gather to honour the talent by giving out over 100 awards! These range from Record of the Year (won by Lady Antebellum for Need You Now) to Best Spoken Word Album for Children (wtf?!) With so much talent, the competition is stiff... the stars have no way of controlling who wins! However, the one thing they can control is their outfit. There is no such thing as a well dressed loser. Take a look at the REAL winners of last nights Annual 53rd Grammy Awards...

My Number 1 of the night has to be Rii Rii!

Rihanna looks absolutely stunning in this Jean Paul Gaultier gown straight off his runway.

Next has to be the Beauty that is Heidi Klum. This gold Julien Macdonald dress hugs her curves in all the right places...

3rd place goes to Julianne Hough in this Fabulous Malandrino gown. I love the flattering shape and the colours are gorgeous!

JLO is the ultimate MILF in 4th place looking like the sexy siren we know and love in this Emilio Pucci Mini finished off with Louboutins peep-toes.

Appearing for the 2nd time in my top 10 is Rihanna. She wore this AMAZING Dior ball gown during her performance of Love The Way You Lie with Eminen.

The red-headed vixen, Florence Welch gets 6th place due to the vintage elegance of this Givenchy Haute Couture dress.

Lucky number 7. I absolutely ADORE leopard print! And while i would not usually condone it head to toe...Ms Minaj knows how to rock things us mere mortals wouldn't dare even think about! This Givenchy ensemble is WOW!

I can't believe I am about to compliment Miley Cyrus but she looks amazing in this Cavalli sequin print gown. Animal print AND a bit of bling - Love Love Love it!

Only Mrs Katy Brand could wear a pink, glittery dress and appear on a Best Dressed List. Marriage is treating the singer well...

It was All White On the Night for Mr JB in this white D&G suit...

Be Charm-ed

Doves, keys, hearts, shoes, bags...ice cream? There is a charm for absolutely everything!

Charms are a great way for you to express yourself and release your inner child. I adore charm necklaces as a finishing touch to ANY outfit.

I am in love with this Vintage Christian Dior one - it would go perfectly with my vintage Dior shades! (anyone out there wanting to buy me a valentines day pressie? This necklace will make me love you!)

Whilst i can only hope the above charm necklace will appear on my desk one morning, I have found some amazing and equally fabulous alternatives...
