2014 Golden Globes - Neutrals (Part II)

Jennifer Lawrence picked up her Best Supporting Actress trophy for 'American Hustle' in a Christian Dior Fall 2013 gown.  The strapless white dress with two black waistbands had a familiar silhouette but Jennifer updated the look with her pixie hairstyle, those emerald earrings by Neil Lane and the burgundy lip colour.

Zooey Deschanel in J. Mendel - 2013 Emmy Awards

Zooey Deschanel attended the 2013 Emmy Awards in LA last night.

The actress, whose style is often labelled 'quirky', actually toned it down in favour of a classic, restrained approach.

The periwinkle J. Mendel column dress was just stunning on Zooey, who wore it with a voluminous hairstyle, white Charlotte Olympia platform pumps and a glittering Edie Parker clutch.

Zooey Deschanel in Tommy Hilfiger - 2013 Met Ball

Zooey Deschanel looked like an entirely new person, at the 2013 Met Ball.

Thanks to the no-bang hairstyle, the 'New Girl' actress looked more 'grown-up'.   It was a simple, baby blue, striped Tommy Hilfiger gown with a one-shoulder for Zooey. 

It may say picnics and meadows rather than punk/grunge but I love this elegant dress on Zooey.

Zooey Deschanel in Valentino - 2013 Vanity Fair Oscars Party

Valentino was the choice of designer for Zooey Deschanel at the 2013 Vanity Fair Oscars event.

The 'New Girl' actress wore a very neutral, almost nude dress with full sleeves and floral motifs from the otherwise colourful Resort 2013 collection.

The dress might have washed her out but her faux-bob was adorable, and make-up perfect.

2013 Golden Globes - Red/Pink

Apart from black, red was the boldest shade of the night, and there were a few shades of pink and maroon too.

Jessica Alba was just gorgeous in a melon coloured Oscar de la Renta Pre-Fall 2013 gown.  The gown fit her like a glove and highlighted her curves.

Her styling was just as impeccable.  Wavy locks, bright lips, a diamond neck piece by Harry Winston and a flirty, feathered Roger Vivier clutch in a dark orange shade.

Zooey Deschanel in Reem Acra - 2012 Emmy Awards

Zooey Deschanel looked amazing at the annual Emmy Awards on Sunday.

The 'New Girl' actress looked cute in a pale, periwinkle blue dress, custom made, by Reem Acra.  The strapless dress had a sweetheart neckline and a frothy skirt.

I couldn't have thought of a better dress for Zooey.  An updo and pink lips looked lovely with the dress.

Zooey Deschanel in Paule Ka - Fox All-Star Party

Like Lea Michele, Zooey Deschanel attended the FOX all star party on Monday evening.

Zooey wore a gold jacquard dress by Paule Ka with a fitted bodice and a flared skirt- her signature silhouette.

I really have nothing bad to say about this look except that Zooey needs to xperiment with her footwear, those black pumps are putting me to sleep.

Zooey Deschanel in Monique Lhuillier - 2012 Teen Choice Awards

Zooey Deschanel went blue at the Teen Choice Awards in California on Sunday night.

The 'New Girl' actress wore a cobalt blue frock with a leather waist band from the beautiful, colourful Monique Lhuillier Resort 2013 collection.

The colour is great on Zooey and I am so grateful that she did not wear tights. That being said, I wish Zooey had gone that one step ahead and worn this or this (from the same collection); I love the lime green and neon hues in this collection.  

Zooey's look was completed with smooth hair, a clutch and Giuseppe Zanotti bow pumps.

Zooey Deschanel in Oscar de la Renta - 2012 ESPY Awards

Zooey Deschanel made an appearance at the ESPYs this year, much to my surprise.

The 'New Girl' actress was pretty in a silver and gold sequined dress by Oscar de la Renta dress which was worn with a red belt around the waist.

As far as interesting goes, this dress was perfect but I found that belt unnecessary.  She completed her look with voluminous hair, a sparkly box clutch and gold Sergio Rossi heels.  

Thank the lord, there is no sign of her infamous black tights.

Zooey Deschanel in Oscar de la Renta - 2012 Critics' Choice Television Awards

My favourite, Zooey Deschanel attended the Critics' Choice Television Awards in Beverley Hills last night.  The adorable actress won the award for the Best Actress in a Comedy Series for her work in 'New Girl', one of my favourite shows.

She was radiant in a red tulle and floral applique frock from the Oscar de la Renta Resort 2013 collection.  

I think this dress was made for Zooey, and we hardly see her wearing red on the red carpet but it's definitely her colour.  She wore it with eye-lined blue eyes, pink lips and cheeks, a gold necklace, red clutch and Louboutin 'Pigalle' pumps in black.

Zooey Deschanel in Moschino - 2012 Billboard Music Awards

Zooey Deschanel stepped out in a Moschino Fall 2012 dress to the Billboard Music Awards.

She looked great in the pale blue shift dress with a white neckline and silver embellishments.  However, I hate how she wore tights with it.

I know Zooey is very fond of tights but they ruin the whole feel of the dress and look dowdy.  Her hair was worn in a cool, retro ponytail and she added colour via the almost orange lip colour.

Zooey Deschanel in Carven - FOX Upfront Presentation

Zooey Deschanel attended the 2012 FOX Upfronts for 'New Girl' in NYC.

She wore a Carven Spring 2012 dress that featured a white shirt with a cut-out neck and a flared mini skirt.

Zooey as usual paired it with tights, and wore Miu Miu heels.  I like how she added colour via the pink lipstick, otherwise this look would have been very dull.

Zooey Deschanel in Oscar de la Renta - 2012 White House Correspondants Dinner

Zooey Deschanel attended the 2012 White House Correspondants Dinner in an Oscar de la Renta Pre-Fall 2012 ballgown.

I liked the unusual grey shade of the sequined dress but it was sitting too low on her and hence formed a puddle in the bottom.

The hair and red lips were spot on, as always though.

'My Valentine' Premiere

Friday night saw a lot of lovely ladies attend the premiere of 'My Valentine', a video created by Paul McCartney and starring Natalie Portman and Johnny Depp.  Unsurprisingly, everyone wore clothes by Stella McCartney, who did the styling for her dad's music video.

Reese Witherspoon - The pregnant actress wore a comfy black shift with lace detail and looked ever so happy!

Gwyneth Paltrow - She went for the jean + blazer combo, adding Stella McCartney Fall 2012 heels in the process.

Kristen Stewart - I didn't understand her look at all.  It looked like she got dressed for school but got access to a make-up box and decided to put everything one.

Gwen Stefani - She wore a black jumpsuit from the Stella McCartney Fall 2011 collection with a sheer neck and sleeves and a peplum waist.  I love the top-knot and red lipstick.

Miranda Kerr - The model looked stunning in the Stella McCartney Spring 2012 dress.  I love how her make-up and hair is always clean and sleek.

Zooey Deschanel - The 'New Girl' star wore a strapless dress with a bow at the waist from the Stella McCartney Pre-Fall 2012 line.  On this occasion I'm glad she wore tights.

Ginnifer Goodwin - She wore a multi print dress with a maroon collar.  The belt was an important accessory here as it stopped the dress from looking like a sack.  I liked her choice of clutch and shoes too.

Rumer Willis - She opted for a gown from the Stella McCartney Spring 2012 collection.  This gown has been worn many times but I hated how Rumer wore it - that black shawl thing was so unnecessary, as was the messy hair.

Zooey Deschanel In Shareen Vintage - 2012 Writers Guild Awards

Zooey Deschanel graced the red carpet at the Writers Guild Awards in a Shareen Vintage gown.

The plaid, halter gown with a plunging neckline could have been a disaster on someone else, but Zooey's adorable aura makes it work - she looks utterly charming.

A cute hairstyle, pink lips and a big smile completed her look.

2012 Golden Globes - Black

Rooney Mara wore black, as was expected.  The Best Actress (Drama) nominee wore a Nina Ricci Pre-Fall 2012 gown.  The plunge-neck tulle bodice & long column skirt were simple yet perfect for the scale of the event.  Rooney chose to sweep back her bangs and wore very less make-up.

Zooey Deschanel In Erin Fetherston - 'The X Factor' Finale

Zooey Deschanel attended the 'The X Factor' finale in a cute Erin Fetherston dress.

 Love this drop-waist dress on Zooey, it's very her.
I think some jewelery would have been a nice touch though, no?

Fashion Roundup

Drew Barrymore attended the MoMa Film Benefit wearing a feather-print maxi by Chanel, topped with a bolero jacket.  A simple hairstyle, red lips & a chain-strap bags were the finishing touches.

Amy Adams kept things classy at a book launch, in a metallic, ruched sheath by Dolce & Gabbana - worn with an updo, bright lips and caramel pumps.

Zooey Deschanel worked her quirky vibe, in a vintage dress at the GQ Men Of The Year party, which she wore with sparkly Miu Miu pumps, and her signature tights of course.

Nikki Reed wore a bright yellow Jenni Kayne shirt-dress for the launch of her cover with Seventeen magazine.  She kept things laid back with wavy hair and neutral pumps.

Freida Pinto attended a L'Oreal event in Paris, wearing a rich gold Ralph Lauren dress, worn with a Balmain jacket.  Black flats and an updo completed her chic evening look.

Shailene Woodley wore a floral, sweetheart Dolce & Gabbana frock for the premiere of 'The Descendants' along with satin pumps & a messy updo.

Teen Choice Awards 2011

This year's red carpet turnout for the Teen Choice Awards really impressed me (bar one or two looks)!

Nina Dobrev had the most improved look - the nautical Dolce & Gabbana dress had a great silhouette and looked fresh. She's still struggling a little in the shoe department - I would have preferred to see some coloured sandals instead of those plain navy Ferregamo pumps.

Taylor Swift also wore a similar shaped dress - hers a white satin Rafael Cennamo. She added colour to her simple look via the blue eye shadow and pink lips.

Zooey Deschanel won my award for the worst dressed of the night thanks to her unflattering and drab Miu Miu dress which she wore with those unsightly black heels.

Zoe Saldana didn't win many points in the style stakes either - I'm not a fan of her metallic Lanvin dress or those gold Mary Janes.

Demi Lovato glowed (literally) in a sunny BCBG Max Azria mini that had a train and lace panelling. I would have liked the look if it weren't for her overwhelming tan, hair and matching peeptoes.

Selena Gomez also wore a dress with a train, her gold Erin by Erin Featherstone dress looked great, especially with that purple coloured clutch, gold earrings and interesting shoes.

Ashley Greene kept things minimal in a monochromatic Givenchy number which she wore with strappy sandals and straight locks.

Nikki Reed's ethnic maxi by Etro was a winning look on her - the black clutch and gold cuff added to it.

Cameron Diaz showed off her legs (surprise) and arms in a tan mini; I love her colourful heels though.

Rachel Bilson added edge to her soft Chloe frock with the studded Brian Atwood heels. It's a nice enough look but I would have liked to see some colour on her.

Emma Stone went with colour block with her white, and brown coloured Christian Dior dress - I love how her hair matches with the shades on her dress but I think that a neutral statement necklace would have made the look more interesting.

Blake Lively was like a ray of sunshine in her tangerine Gucci sheath. Her gold accessories looked fabulous, as did those animal-print pumps.

Fashion Roundup

Red, in two of its shades was popular this week with Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman.

Reese looked adorable in this ruffled tomato red dress, which she wore with light sandals.

Nicole Kidman hasn't looked this great in a while! The actress' Elie Saab peplum dress gave her curves and the colour looked gorgeous with her red hair and lips. Bravo!

Eva Longoria also wore a warm shade this week, her pumpkin coloured Asos dress works perfectly on her petite and slim frame. Those matching heels should feel stiffling but they work quite well in this instance.

Chanel darling, Clemence Poesy attended the "Harry Potter and the Deathy Hallows Part 2" premiere in Paris wearing... wait for this... Chanel. I like the pastel dress and metallic heels, but her hair and make up are totally letting this look down!

Zooey Deschanel was at the "Winnie the Pooh" movie premiere, looking cute in a rose-print Kate Spade frock, worn with nude peeptoes.

Cameron Diaz was again promoting "Bad Teacher" in Mexico, wearing this haphzard outfit. The white romper isn't exactly flattering and add to that the denim jacket, a thin black belt and turquoise bead necklace? It's too much. She should have left the jacket at home, I say.

Ashley Greene worked the coloured denim trend while out and about. The actress coupled the jeans with a black knit and some black pumps - sometimes, simple works wonders.

Jessica Szohr was seen in Miami, wearing a cool blue silk jumpsuit, with ankle-strap heels. I think that some jewellery would have taken this look up, maybe some stacked bangles?
