Best Dressed Celebrities at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week 2014

Kristen Stewart 

Debuting her edgy new bob, Kristen Stewart shone as she attended the Chanel fall haute couture fashion show. In all white, the star wore a simple crop top complete with intricate semi-sheer trousers and chunky silver jewellery. Effortless.  

Kim Kardashian 

When it comes to Kim Kardashian, the more high fashion, the better and I fell in love with this Balmain piece she donned whilst visiting sister Kendall Jenner. The roped, almost military intricacy to her top complimented the moss green of her chunky waist belt and she brought out her wild side with a leather leopard print pencil skirt. Perfect!

Showing her versatility, the star also hung out with Valentino in this plunging duck egg blue Valentino gown that really complimented her figure. Messy loose locks and neutral make-up meant all eyes were on that stunning dress! 

Kendall Jenner

It's undeniable that Kardashian sibling Kendall Jenner has adopted a high fashion look and after stunning on the red carpet, she appeared with her sister in matching Balmain. I love the moss green cable-tied design to the dress, the sharp shoulder shape as well as the gladiator-esque appearance to the skirt and the leather touch to the sleeves. I need this dress!  

Olivia Palermo 

Skinny mini Olivia Palermo wore an array of stunning outfits to this weeks show but none more beautiful than this monochrome number. Her little black dress made way for the most amazing jacket. The white front sections contained intricate zips and poppers that made way for a black trim and gorgeous paint-streak print sleeves. I want to be her! 

Emma Watson 

I die a little inside when I realise this girl is my age. Emma Watson always stuns and I loved two of her pieces this week. Attending the Dior Haute Couture show, she wore none other than Dior with this one-shoulder gown complete with unique half moon sheer cuts. 

Turning up to the Giambattista Valli show looking effortlessly comfortable, Watson tied back her hair to reveal a fabulous black satin oversized jacket with black skinny jeans. So jealous of those pins. 

Nina Dobrev

Vampire Diaries actress Nina Dobrev's interest in high fashion has grown of recent and I was so pleased to see her in this Atelier mini dress. The baroque contrasting prints in royal blue and rouge are super elegant and the shoulder tassles and military buttons excite me. Keep it up Dobrev!

Rosamund Pike

English rose Rosamund Pike made me wish it was autumn already in this Chanel coat, monochrome handbag and black stilettos. Whatever is underneath that coat, I bet it's fabulous too. 

Charlize Theron

Face of Dior, Charlize Theron looked nothing short of A-MAZING. The gold mini complimented her loose quiff, and nude strappy heels. Look at those pins! 

Jennifer Lawrence Facepalms Emma Watson and it's Glorious

Here's a thought- Hermione and Katniss in a stand-off? 

Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Watson were seen at Paris Fashion Week having a brilliant time together, although Lawrence playfully thought Watson should talk to the hand. How is it possible that she still looks pretty, even with a mitt in her face?! 

The pair both attended the Dior Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2014/15 collection, sitting in the frow lapping up all the designs. The actresses  are currently having time off after finishing different projects- J-Law's being Mockingjay parts one and two and the Harry Potter star having just graduated and also completed movie Regression.

Best and Worst Dressed at the Oscars 2014

Best Dressed

Cate Blanchett

 As well as picking up that coveted best actress award on Sunday, Blanchett won my prize for best dressed in this exquisite nude Armani Privé gown complete with intricate embellishments. Her subtle Hollywood curls and minimal jewellery do nothing to offset the beautiful dress. 

Jennifer Lawrence

I was slightly disappointed with Lawrence's rouge gown during the ceremony, with it's out of date peplum and trip-worthy length, her mirrored mini was a much better option. Opting for Tom Ford, this glittery dress with skinny stilettos and a loose quiff finish off her look beautifully.

Kate Hudson

Miss Hudson looked ravishing in this flowing Versace piece. I loved the spiked shoulders complete with embellishments and a deep V that meet with a gathering of the rich material at her waist. 

Charlize Theron

I am a massive fan of the nude straps on this Dior gown worn by Charlize Theron on the red carpet. The top half compliments her slim figure and progresses into a chunky chiffon section before the train presents thin black panels. 

Emma Watson

As English rose Emma Watson gets older, her fashion sense just gets better and better. This Vera Wang piece is stunning with chain mail-esque sleeveless top that stands boldly joined to the black glittery bottom half. She finishes off her look with dramatic rouge, a metallic clutch and several chunky silver rings. Perfect.

Emma Roberts

There was a severe lack of dramatic colour on the red carpet at the weekend so I was really excited when I saw Emma Roberts tulip shaped dress with slash neck at the Vanity Fair party. The silky geometric patterning is subtle and sophisticated and I loved her matching skinny stilettos and glittered solid clutch. 

Brangelina 

My Brangelina obsession seems to augment each time I see them on the red carpet, and the Oscars was no exception. Metallic being an ever-present this season, Jolie's dress was a visual delight. Sparkling in front of the lens, the subtle chiffon sections juxtapose the gathered stalagmite and stalactite-esque encrusted shapes on the gown- beautiful.

Sarah Paulson

American Horror Story star Sarah Paulson opted for an understated pale bronze encrusted floor-length piece. With subtle floral patterns and a metallic clutch bag to compliment the dress, Paulson truly shone.  

Kelly Osbourne

It still baffles me to see someone like Kelly Osbourne on the red carpet at the weekend, however her choice of dress was spot on. Taking a simple strapless, almost dull white gown and adding a sheer and metallic drape gave the outfit volume and charm, thumbs up Kelly. 

Sandra Bullock

A wrap dress can sometimes look dull but Bullock's midnight blue dress with flowing train, side curls and dark eyes give her a mystical, almost ethereal look. 

Jenna Dewan

Intricacy is displayed at it's greatest here with Dewan in this Reem Acra creation. Beading and feathering create a fabulous combination and the slate grey is an elegant colour to opt for. 

Worst Dressed

Anna Kendrick

Oh dear, oh dear. Anna Kendrick's multi-layered black gown with diagonal strip did not flatter the actress,. Although I like the way she matched her nails, mid-section and clutch, the look was too dark. 

Kristen Bell

Cavalli fell flat for me as Kristen Bell looked stiff and almost slightly plump in this dull gown. The bottom half of the dress looked more like a lettuce that has been drained of colour than a sophisticated creation. 

Liza Minelli

Wow, what a disaster. Matching her god-awful electric blue satin two piece, Minelli even incorporated a garish blue streak to complete her fashion fatality. Its burning my eyes.

Pharrell Williams

Making his second fashion faux pas of the season, it was bizarre that Williams opted for shorts instead of trousers. Perhaps someone should remind him he is at the Oscars, not the beach?!

Jared Leto 

So many Hollywood hunks sizzled on the red carpet but Leto's monochrome Saint Laurent tuxedo failed to impress me. Why pick a red bow tie? 

Elsa Pataky

The beautiful Elsa Pataky wore a turquoise embellished gown that made her look ludicrous.Almost as bad as Kim K's sofa dress I must say...

Best and Worst Dressed at the Golden Globes 2014

Award season is well and truly here and last night the biggest and most beautiful stars were celebrating their talent in style at the Golden Globes. Let's take a look at the hits and misses on the red carpet. 

Best Dressed 

Emma Watson

What do you do when you can't make that painstaking choice between cigarette trousers and a deep red gown? You combine the two to create this stunning Dior ensemble English rose Emma Watson wore on the red carpet last night. Combining the look with slim midnight blue stilettos and a subtle low bun, the actress looked effortless. 

 

Amy Adams

Red was definitely a shade I was lusting after last night as fiery-haired actress Amy Adams opted for the same foxy tone as Watson. The plunging V-neck in deep maroon that led into a vibrant rouge suited her fair complection however I would have loved to have seen her hair in some loose waves. Either way a stunning piece. 

Emma Roberts

In the height of its third season, American Horror Story actress and the newly engaged Emma Roberts topped her current success by looking effortlessly chic in her LBD accompanied by intricate oversized turquoise earrings. Accentuating her features in all the right places and with scraped-back hair that allowed all eyes to be on that dress, I thought it was one of the most striking looks of the night.  

Margot Robbie 

Emerging Australian actress Margot Robbie can do no wrong lately as her pieces for The Wolf of Wall Street premieres measured up to this stunning white Gucci gown. Jewel embellishments around the waist and sleeves flattered her svelte figure and those cheeky emerald heels add a splash of colour to her ethereal look. Top marks Margot! 

Jennifer Lawrence
This lady has had a fabulous few months in fashion with an immense amount of successful pieces she donned during the world tour promotion of The Hunger Games Catching Fire. The most anticipated star of the night didn't disappoint in Dior as she embraced monochrome in this prom dress-esque sleeveless piece. Her deep rouge and oceanic earrings brought a fabulous contrast and finished off her look perfectly. You can do no wrong J- Law. 

Julie Bowen

Velvet has been in for quite a while on the high street, and I was wondering when it might infiltrate the red carpet. Bowen demonstrated the right way to wear the fabric with this simple two-tone dress complete with belt and puffed 80s-style sleeves. That plum bottom half is to die for. 

Kate Beckinsale

I'm not usually a fan of the metallic, but this shining piece would make a magpie foam at the mouth. Beckinsale combined the dress with minimal accessories, a plain black clutch and a messy up do- less is definitely more. 

Amelia Clarke
The name Proenza Schouler might not be as prominent as Dior and Oscar De La Renta when it comes to red carpet fashion, but I would note it down. The mini mosaic monochrome print on the dress incorporated translucent panelling and a sophisticated front split. Perfection. 

 

Julianna Margulies

Black dresses are the easiest way to make an impact whilst looking effortlessly gorgeous, suitably demonstrated here by Margulies whose black floor length gown becomes encapsulating at the shoulders and foot of the dress where gold coral-esque embellishments spread and progress. 

Amber Heard
Johnny Depp's newest beau made an Angelina-esque impact on the red carpet in this midnight blue silk Atelier dress. Her loose and volumous quiff with smokey eyes would make anyone swoon. Fabulous job Amber! 

Worst Dressed

Tina Fey

Fey is never too far from my worst dressed list, and I thought this gown was up there as one of her most dire. Curvaceous figures are fabulous but accentuating them further as demonstrated below is anything but flattering. Pink is a dangerous colour and just doesn't work here. 

  

Zoe Saldana

My relationship with partially sheer pieces went from a slight dislike to a clinical loathing after seeing this piece worn by Saldana last night. Baby pink and black are colours only seen in the likes of Ann Summers, and those off-shoulder straps give me palpitations. WHY! 

Uma Thurman

Two pieces are increasingly popular in high fashion and even though we are often encouraged to experiment with varying prints, this dress is a perfect demonstration of a clothing calamity. Slate grey silk combined with a black 90s-style high neck makes for a puzzling composition. 

Mila Kunis
I usually love Kunis' style but this Gucci piece looks as if it should have been thrown away with last year's tinsel. Let's just hope she won't go the same way as Miss Longoria, who is now beyond help when it comes to red carpet mishaps. 

Aubrey Plaza
Oscar de la Renta's over-simplistic bridesmaid-esque piece worn by Aubrey Plaza did nothing for me. The putrid two-tone silky gown sat uncomfortably on Plaza's figure and her matching pink clutch and purple heels make me want to vom. 

Zooey Deschanel
Oh dear maybe I'm just not into Oscar de la Renta because I was sorely disappointed with Zooey's inspid shade and style of her dress. The only redeeming element to her outfit were her intricately embellished shoes which look like they could cause potential damage if she kicked anyone. 

Bernice Bejo 

Bejo may have made an impact stepping out in this outfit last night, but in a lot of ways I wish she would have faded into the carpet. What looked like a sleeveless blazer with crustacean style embellishments clinging to it composed the top half of the piece with a tatty train that made up the bottom half. More tampon than trendsetting.  

Jemima Kirke 

Oh maybe Kirke thought the Golden Globes were hippie themed? The beach is the opposite way, love. A boho look is extremely desirable but donning a piece that looks as if it faded in the wash really isn't. 

Lena Dunham 

Wow, worst dressed of the night goes to this little lady who not only got the colour of her gown wrong, but shape too. The top half of the piece is wonderfully figure-hugging yet swamps her as it reaches into a fat fishtail. My eyes hurt. 

Reese Witherspoon 

Oh no Calvin Klein, I don't know about you but I would consider wearing this to the gym.. The halter neck and colour are perfect for a workout! Did someone pin Witherspoon down and chemically straighten her hair? The style doesn't suit her at all and I'm assuming those wispy bits at the front are some sort of fringe? 

Best and Worst Dressed at the GQ Awards 2013

Last night made way for the 2013 GQ Awards in London with all manner of celebrity folk turning out to celebrate this year's talented musicians,comedians, fashion icons and TV personalities. From  Michael Douglas to Tom Ford, the array of stars meant a wonderful variety of fashion. Here is my summary of the best and worst dressed of the night. 

Best Dressed

 

Emma Watson

I love it when stars go edgy, and it seems Emma Watson went all Kristen Stewart on us and opted for a Balenciaga piece. The monochrome is bang on trend and I love how effective her minimal make-up is. She is definitely a natural beauty,love her.

Suki Waterhouse

Metallics are timeless as Bradley Cooper's girlfriend Suki Waterhouse demonstrated last night. The deep V plunge neckline made way for a striking silver belt and the floor-length cut makes it super sophisticated. Thumbs up!

Eddie Redmayne

Tartan is well and truly in this season and I was very excited when I saw Eddie Redmayne with this striking suit. Dapper is not the word! I also love the subtle checks of his skinny tie.

Rita Ora

Etro might be a lesser known label, but it definitely knows how to stand out on the red carpet. Rita Ora's floor length cut-out gown in yellow and jet looked fabulous on her, and I love how mesmerising the piece is. Stick on some spiral earrings and BAM, best look of the night. 

                 From cdni.condenast.co.uk

Daisy Lowe

Wowzas, Daisy Lowe opted for some sexy Saint Laurent last night- a dress which didn't leave much to the imagination. Even though I think deep V's and side splits should be an either/or option, I loved the sheer sleeves, the way the gown complimented her complection and her brilliant use of reds in her rouge, shoes and nail polish.

                From cdni.condenast.co.uk

Douglas Booth

I love a bit of velvet and was thrilled to see some navy on the red carpet last night. Douglas Booth looks suitably handsome and I am looking forward to seeing him play Romeo in the upcoming Shakespeare movie. Lose that facial hair though...

                From cdni.condenast.co.uk

Jourdan Dunn

Woahh last night was definitely the night of plunging necklines as British model Jourdan Dunn dazzled in this cream embellished dress. Although the piece shows slightly too much chest for me, I love the long sleeves and the intricate design as well as her swept back hair- bang on trend. 

        From i1.mirror.co.uk

 

 

Worst Dressed:

Alexa Chung

Someone clearly likes to wrap themselves in tin foil: Alexa Chung made a wrong move in this Carven piece which looks like it needs a good iron. Loving the rouge and Chanel clutch though. 

                 From cdni.condenast.co.uk]

Pixie Lott

No no no! I am really not a fan of Pixie Lott's pink and cream dress with rose netting. Her '60s quiff has been done too many times before i'm afraid. 

                 From cdni.condenast.co.uk#

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

One word: boring. This white PVC Versace dress is just too simple. I know you are on a break from Jason Stratham, but can't you at least make a little bit of effort. Meowww

              From cdni.condenast.co.uk

Miles Kane

The shade of cream really doesn't sit well with me, so seeing Miles Kane kitted out in this god-awful suit gave me the shivers. Take it offfff

               From cdni.condenast.co.uk

Ellie Goulding

A double whammy of frightful frocks here for Ellie Goulding as she seemed to take a fashion swerve from her usual sophisticated and striking looks. The feather piece on the left is especially awful. Pass me the sick bag. 

        From redcfa.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com

Helen Lasichanh

Pharell William's wife might have embraced the monochrome look, but the bizarre crepe paper-inspired embellishments do nothing to the piece, I do love her over sized necklace though. 

                  From cdni.condenast.co.uk

Sophie Dahl

D&G failed with this piece which has lace overkill written all over it. In what universe does a leopard skin clutch go with this outfit? Go home Sophie.
