Let me introduce you to the prettiest dresses we’ve seen on the red carpet this year. Soft pink is now the most elegant and refreshing evening wear alternative. It’s as chic as black but has the added impact of looking impossibly soft and feminine…. a knockout combination. The sensational mix of chiffon, charmeuse, lace and embroidery with this subtle hue makes this colour a major trend on the red carpet. Continue Reading →

Kate Moss is on the cover of the December issue of Vanity Fair : it coincides with the release of her book Kate: The Kate Moss Book . She reveals that Johnny Depp taught her how to handle fame, she had a nervous breakdown at 17 and that she is actually not a natural in front of the camera. “I’m terrible at a snapshot. Terrible. I blink all the time. I’ve got facial Tourette’s. Unless I’m working and in that zone, I’m not very good at pictures, really.” She goes on to say “On my wedding day, I’m like freaking out, obviously. ‘You’ve got to give me a character.’ And [Galliano] said, ‘You have a secret-you are the last of the English roses. Hide under that veil. When he lifts it, he’s going to see your wanton past!’” Read more here. Continue Reading →

This week we are looking the best dressed celebrities and how they are wearing the trends.

It’s time for pretty and delightful 50’s style dresses. But don’t worry this look is anything but retro. Just because these lovely ladies look pulled together doesn’t mean they can’t be cool and modern. A gorgeous dress with equally chic accessories will always look effortless and completely contemporary. It’s about throwing a glamorous 50’s style dress, preferably cinched in at the waist such as Emma Stone and then keeping jewellery to a minimum. Continue Reading →
