Natalie Portman in Christian Dior - 2013 New York City Ballet Fall Gala

Natalie Portman wowed us at the annual New York City Ballet Fall Gala this year.

She wore a three tone Christian Dior Fall 2013 Couture gown with beading all over.  I absolutely love the combination of the three bold hues and the texture of the beading - all photograph beautifully.

Natalie's light hair and dark smokey eyes worked great with the dress and she finished off her unique look with a Richard Mille clutch.  I couldn't imagine anyone wearing this dress and looking as statuesque and elegant as Natalie did on the night.

Natalie Portman in Christian Dior - LA Dance Project Inaugural Benefit Gala

The always wonderful Natalie Portman attended the first ever LA dance project inaugral benefit gala in Los Angeles, a project started by her husband Benjamin Millipied.

She looked gorgeous in a Christian Dior Resort 2013 dress.  The royally red dress screamed summer with its warm tones, including the hot pink inside and the floaty design.

It fit Natalie beautifully and she finished the look with a low on the glamour styling and two-tone Christian Dior heels.

Natalie Portman In Christian Dior - 2012 Oscars

Natalie Portman's vintage Christian Dior Couture gown was a breath of fresh air on the red carpet at this year's Oscars.

The strapless, red polka-dot design with a full skirt is perfectly whimsical but still elegant.   

Natalie looked very pretty with her hair down, wore stunning Harry Winston jewels and carried a Charlotte Olympia clutch.

Natalie Portman In Giambattista Valli - 2012 Screen Actors Guild Awards

Natalie Portman attended the Screen Actors Guild Awards in a Giambattista Valli Spring 2012 Couture gown.

The dark, strapless chiffon gown has an oversized rose on the bodice that adds interest to it.  I love how the colour of the gown looks with her brown eyes and hair.

Natalie wore gorgeous Harry Winston jewels to complete her look.

2012 Golden Globes - Purple/Pink

Jessica Alba wore a dress by Gucci.  The mauve coloured, strapless dress has silver embellishments and a train;  Jessica wore it with a bun, Bulgari jewels and a Roger Vivier bag.  That colour is divine against her tan.

The Oscars - Purples & Blues

Hilary Swank, Amy Adams and Marisa Tomei sported dark blue.

I'm not feeling Hilary's feathery Gucci gown, it's too much and the whole feather hem thing is so 2009.

Amy Adams' sparkly cap-sleeve gown by L'Wren Scott evoked old Hollywood, especially with the hair but the emerald and diamonds were a bit of a turn off.

Marisa's dress was a vintage Charles James and it's not my favourite - the hemline is a little too much.

Natalie Portman wore a purple silk-chiffon Rodarte dress with an off-shoulder neckline. This particular shade of purple (more like plum) does wonders for pregnant celebrities! Jessica Alba wore a beautiful Marchesa gown to the Oscars in 2008 in a similar hue. I'm loving those swingy earrings from Tiffany & Co.

Scarlett Johansson wore a lacy Dolce & Gabbana dress with high neck and a drop down back (not pictured) - it's just too much lace for me.

Independent Spirit Awards

The Independent Spirit Awards (Indies for short) took place on Saturday night and the stars turned up in their best "cool" togs. The Indies are traditionally very laid back and fun and the celebrities kept that in mind while dressing for the occassion.

Nicole Kidman wore a strawberry-red L'Wren Scott lace sheath with pointed pink kitten heels from Charlotte Olympia. She's playing with two trends here, red & pink and pointy pumps (they're totally in, according to Vogue), she looks nice but what's with the weird hands?

I looked at Natalie Portman and went "Awww!". The expectant actress looked absolutely gorgeous, and radiant in a Givenchy number with nude Stella McCartney heels - it's got a free-spirit thing going on, totally appropriate for the Indies.

Michelle Trachtenberg looked very sophisticated in a cream, wrap-dress by Pamela Rolland - cream/white dresses were popular at the Indies this year.

Mia Wasikowska (from Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland") wore a Rodarte dress with cutouts and Nicholas Kirkwood heels - it's a bit of a washout, some colour was needed! She should have gone for something like these (Nicholas Kirkwoods) instead.

Eva Mendes wore a printed Chanel Resort dress with some cool aqua coloured Pierre Hardy heels and tons of pizzazz! Her confident pose and attitude alone sells this look.

Rosario Dawson went for an animal-print Burberry dress with slate grey Brian Atwoods. I'm not loving this dress much, the ruffles seem heavy somehow.

Both Zoe Saldana and Kerry Washington wore Dolce & Gabbana. The label is coming out with a lot of floral print and lacey stuff and these designs showcase that. I personally think it looks too busy but Zoe's slender frame makes the look work, she added some bright red Brian Atwoods to the mix.

Kerry's black, floral top & skirt were too loud for me, add to that the animal-print clutch, blunt bangs and red shoes - it's an overload!

Kate Walsh wore a cream, one-shoulder Max Mara number with pointy nude heels - kind of boring.

Vera Farmiga wore a printed red wrap dress with brown accessories in the form of the necklace, belt and shoes - it's very Indies style.

Oscars Weekend!

The weekend is heeeere. Numerous parties went down on Friday to kick-off the Oscars.

Natalie Portman wore a simple loose-fitting white dress by H&M (!) with lacy sleeves at an event with gold heels, pretty!

Her "Black Swan" co-star, Mila Kunis wore a simple red Valentino number with a textured black jacket, and matching coffee-coloured heels (Brian Atwoods) and clutch. I love the colour combination going on here.

Kerry Washington was at a luncheon and wore a printed cream cocktail dress by Vivienne Westwood with matching pale heels by the label, very sophisticated.

Amy Adams, vying for a Best Supporting Actress gong wore a jacquard Carolina Herrera dress with black peeptoes and looked so beautiful!

Elizabeth Banks, seen at the opening of Tom Ford's store rocked a cutout black dress by Versace with some turqouise ankle-strap heels.

Michelle Williams wore a bright fuschia design by Louis Vuitton at a party, it's ridiculously cute but maintains a risky touch, with the cutout below the neckline.

Oscars Luncheon

The pre-Oscars luncheon saw a lot of good fashion!

Natalie Portman wore a silk shirt-dress in teal by Lanvin, with pink satin pumps by David Charles and a similar coloured Dior clutch. Amy Adams, clad in a white Valentino dress looked ever so pretty! She finished off her look with golden Ferregamo heels and a chunky white bracelet.

Michelle Williams went for Chanel, wearing a black silk blouse tucked into a tweed skirt and wore simple black Sergio Rossis - very elegant. Nicole Kidman wore colour! I liked her in the printed silk-chiffon Yves Saint Laurent dress.

Fashion Roundup

Dianna Agron had a high and a low this week in fashion stakes. The outfit she wore for a promotional event for "I Am Number Four" was a little dowdy, I think it's those cowboy-esque boots that are ruining it, some sharp black heels would have elevated the look. She shut it down with her second look though! The swingy black frock, patent black heels and the House of Lavande statement pendant make for an incredibly elegant look.
Natalie Portman wore the Michael Kors asymmetrical hem gown with the gold accents at the Directors Guild Awards - it's similar to her look for the Critics Choice Awards but it works! Why fix something that's not broken?

Dita Von Teese looked great in a shimmery peach dress by Jenny Packham- lovin' the 50's inspired look.
Claire Danes was also at the Directors Guild Awards, in a tight black Roland Mouret sheath - it was a little unexpected from her but she's working it.

Amy Adams perfected the nude trend with this soft chiffon dress, with saffron coloured peeptoes. Also, how gorgeous does her hair look!

Maggie Gyllenhaal wore a kitschy wrap jacket over a black skirt - I like the jacket, just think that it would have looked better with simple denims.

Kate Walsh wore a bright red Anita Ko dress at her perfume launch - she looked great!

Screen Actors Guild Awards - The White Trend

The Screen Actors Guild Awards took place in Hollywood last night, and the glitterati of the movies were dressed up to the nines. *Click on the images for a clearer look

Here's one of the strong trends of the night, in terms of fashion. White and pale grey gowns were very popular. Amy Adams wore a sleek Hervé Leroux gown in white - loved her entire look! Eva Longoria wore a pale eggshell coloured gown by Georges Hobeika, and despite the low cut neckline, she looked very elegant. Best Actress winner Natalie Portman wore a white Azzaro gown with reportedly $2 million worth of Tiffany & Co jewelery!

Naya Rivera of Glee wore a pale grey slinky gown by Aurelio Costarella, love the way she kept things minimal. Winona Ryder's Alberta Ferretti gown looked very bridal and I'm not a fan of the tacky looking black purse she's carrying. Better posing and a simple clutch would have done wonders for her look!

Fashion Roundup

Malin Akerman was seen at the Golden Globes After Party, wearing a sleek red Tommy Hilfiger design, Natalie Portman wore an electric blue Michael Kors dress with black pumps and matching purse and Gwyneth Paltrow was spotted at an event in Switzerland wearing a light pink Azzadine Alaia knee-skimming dress with cute pink peeptoes from Pierre Hardy.
Hayden Panettiere's navy blue Amanda Wakely gown with a plunging neckline was a grown up look for her but I don't think she quite pulled it off. Rumer Willis looked good in a cream coloured Badgley Mischka gown, I liked the delicate necklace she wore too. Olivia Munn attended a photo exhibit wearing a dark blue chiffon mini dress by Mason, she made the look her own by adding a thick belt to cinch at the waist and suede Elizabeth and James open-toe booties.
Model Bar Rafaeli looked polished in a ruched black top with wide legged black trousers at the Berlin Fashion week. Kourtney Kardashian looked cute in a high waisted pale skirt which she wore with a printed Myne blouse and finished off with black ankle boots. Chloe Sevigny was also seen at the Hugo Boss show in Berlin, wearing shorts and a blazer, I love the lilac floral pin she added to make the look stand out.

Golden Globes 2011 - The Dramatic Gowns

The much, much-awaited Golden Globes Awards took place last night in Hollywood. Here are my favourite "drama" gowns - ones that pack a visual punch within a second!

Olivia Wilde, how do I love your red carpet looks? There's no limit. She once again brought the glamour to the red carpet in a strapless, sparkly chocolate brown ombre ballgown, she left her hair down, to bring in some balance and add a modern touch to the princess-style of the Marchesa gown.

Anne Hathaway knows how to wear her Armani Privé, and she knows it well. I loved her amber hued gown, covered in Swarovski crystals & pailletes. I also loved the dramatic back-drop!

Eva Longoria tried something different this year, by wearing a black Zac Posen gown with covered shoulders and a dramatic hem! Her petite figure really stands out in this design.

Angelina Jolie not wearing black/grey/white? That's a total lie! Actually... no. Angelina wore an emerald green gown by her recently go-to label, Atelier Versace. It's a similar look to Anne's, what with the crystals and sparkles but I'm just happy to see Angelina in something colourful.

Natalie Portman looked as sweet as a rose in her pink and red Viktor & Rolf gown. I love how feminine the gown looks, it suits her down to a T! Also lovin' her Tiffany & Co necklace, it adds dimension to the look. She was carrying a red Dior clutch and wearing Stella McCartney heels.

January Jones, of Mad Men went with Versace. No surprise there, seeing as she's modelled their designs for ad campaigns recently. Her dress was definitely risky but she made it work by managing to look classy, cool and composed. She wore black patent pumps by Versace.

Mila Kunis looked gorgeous in a deep green Vera Wang gown. What I like about this dress is how the material adds so much depth and dimension to the dramatic design, and the shade of the gown looks great against Mila's skintone.

Critics Choice Awards Style

Awards weekend much? Make that an awards month. The Critics Choice Awards took place in Hollywood last night and here are some of the red carpet looks!

Amy Adams wore a floral blue dress with black peeptoes and put her hair up! So classy. Eva Mendes wore a sheer lace Valentino Haute Couture dress with nude peeptoes, it's a different style for Eva but she makes it work! Nicole Kidman's navy Nina Ricci gown fell, and fell hard - I like nothing about the look.

Emma Stone brought the pizzazz back in a brilliant Balenciaga gown - the dress looks amazing on her and I'm really starting to like her blonde locks! Mila Kunis also wore a Nina Ricci frock with an asymmetrical hem and added colour via her beaded necklace. Natalie Portman looked wonderful in a Gianfranco Ferre column dress - it hides her baby bump well without looking like a sack.

Emily Blunt's black Azzaro gown fit her beautifully - the only thing missing was her husband John Krasinski! Mandy Moore broke away from the dark monotone colours by wearing a plum coloured Monique Lhuillier gown with lovely earrings. And Michelle Williams continued her winning streak by wearing an unconventional Balenciaga dress in white, with what look like satin Sergio Rossi pumps.

Few trends to take note from this event - asymmetric hemlines or "mullet" hemlines as they're being referred to are hot right now. Also, dark colours seem to be ruling the roost, with most celebrities preferring black, navy, dark purple; although white is also a popular choice. Let's hope the Golden Globes show us some much needed colour!

No Strings Attached Premiere

Natalie Portman out at an event again! This time, she and Ashton Kutcher (with wifey Demi Moore) were spotted in Hollywood for the premiere of their new film, "No Strings Attached" . Natalie looked lovely once again in a gown by Vena Cava - the loose hair and simple earrings were a great addition. She also carried a Dior bag. Ashton Kutcher looked dapper in a suit while Demi Moore wore a fitted black mini with Casadei heels.

The Social Network

The awards season has begun in full swing people, there's no escaping. Last night, a lot of my favourite actors were present at the Palm Springs Awards, sponsored by Cartier in Palm Springs, California. A lot of The Social Network stars were also present! (Love that movie.)
Natalie Portman, who received the Achievement Actress award & who's now fully sporting that pregnancy glow, wore a full-sleeved black and white dress with gold accents that covered her baby bump perfectly and tied her hair back into a chic bun. Carey Mulligan looked lovely in a metallic Prada dress with a full skirt and plain black YSL pumps. Amy Adams wore a teal coloured, one-shoulder cocktail dress with metallic heels too; I'm not liking the hairstyle one bit, it doesn't suit her and it's so dated!

*Update - Natalie Portman is wearing a Vionnet dress and Christian Dior heels.

Rashida Jones kept it simple in a printed blouse and black skirt, she wore black sandals and added colour through her red lipstick. Brenda Song wore a glitzy black mini with black Louboutins.

Here's a picture of The Social Network cast together backstage! L-R: Andrew Garfield, Brenda Song, Arnie Hammer, Rashida Jones, Josh Pence, Rooney Mara & Jesse Eisenberg

People's Choice Awards - Hits

So here are the good lookin' people with the good lookin' fashion. Natalie Portman (pictured with Ashton Kutcher) looked radiant in a ruffle-layer dark blue Jason Wu number. Her hair looked pretty and I loved her drop crystal earrings. Emma Roberts too wore a strapless ruffled Dior LBD, with rose satin Brian Atwood pumps and pale pink drop earrings! Simple, yet elegant.


Selena Gomez wore a pale Paul Ka number with Guiseppe Zanotti peeptoes and Taylor Swift wore a similar coloured J Mendel dress with Prada heels and Neil Lane jewels.



Kim Kardashian looked quite nice! (That's supposed to be a surprise tone.) She was wearing a Malandrino dress which she paired with nude peeptoes. I quite liked her hairstyle too, it's a change from her usual style. Minka Kelly & Leighton Meester (co-stars in new suspense flick "The Roommate") looked so great! I especially love how Leighton played with colour - from those gorgeous coral earrings to the smashing Vionnet dress. Both wore Brian Atwood heels and Minka was carrying a Bottega Venneta knot clutch.

*Update - Minka Kelly's wearing a Vivienne Westwood dress.
