Katherine Jenkins In Roksanda Ilincic – Royal Ascot

Katherine Jenkins made a brilliantly bold entrance today at the Royal Ascot at Ascot Racecourse in England.

The singer was a vision in a vibrantly hued, colour-blocked dress from Roksanda Ilincic’s Pre-Fall 2013 collection. The hot orange and pink shades were mirrored in the impressively artistic fascinator, which topped off this frock with a grand flourish.

While the rationale behind her nude Anya Hindmarch ‘Seymour’ clutch was probably to avoid distracting from her strong look, the opposite effect seemed to happen, as I found myself focusing on the odd-colour-out.

With her vivid Dayglo hues, Katherine smartly wore a daintier sandal and kept her makeup rather neutral, while slicking her hair into a simple updo.

You may recall that Naomie Harris wore this dress earlier this year, styled to much different effect.

Eva Longoria In Pamella Roland – ‘Devious Maids’ LA Premiere

Eva Longoria attended the premiere of ‘Devious Maids,’ hosted yesterday at Bel-Air Bay Club in Beverly Hills, California.

While many of the TV show’s leading ladies opted for punchy cocktail dresses or fluid gowns, executive producer Eva paraded out a refreshing Pamella Roland Spring 2013 zipper jumpsuit.

Featuring a twist on a mock peplum waist, the blush-white design literally brought sexy back with sheer side and back panel insets.

My wish for this look was that the pants, which translated as a bit loose and long, were slightly more tailored, especially after viewing the architectural lookbook version.

The oversized envelope clutch also compromised the effect, as the bag was overwhelmingly large for my taste—and for Eva’s petite frame. Patent nude peep-toe pumps by Brian Atwood, minimal jewels and a pretty pink lippie were far less intrusive.

Taylor Schilling In Calvin Klein – Netflix Presents ‘Orange Is The New Black’ Special

Taylor Schilling attended a special screening yesterday for ‘Orange Is The New Black,’ presented by Netflix, at AMC Loews Broadway 4 in Santa Monica, California.

Wearing neither orange or black, the actress took a lighter approach in her white angora, double-faced cotton halter top and belted, front-slit skirt from Calvin Klein’s Resort 2013 collection.

While the wide buckle belt was worn loose and low on the runway, I found myself wishing it was cinched a bit more snugly on Taylor’s svelte frame.

Neutral-toned, cross-strap pointy heels were a safer choice than the catwalk’s blocky platforms and added a retro flair.

Throwing her blonde hair into an effortless, piece-y updo and flaunting a radiant, bronzed complexion, she exuded a cool Cali vibe.

Zhang Ziyi In Jill Stuart & Andrew Gn – Shanghai Film Festival

After recently showing us her inner matador-ess and pattern print-cess, Zhang Ziyi once again proved she was a red-carpet chameleon on Monday, debuting two completely different looks during the 16th Shanghai International Film Festival in China.

‘My Lucky Star’ Press Conference: To promote her movie at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, the actress presented an adorable blue-and-white gingham dress by Jill Stuart that had a slightly nautical appeal. A dual-tone belt offset the exaggerated hip silhouette of the sweet frock. She accessorized with nude Casadei stilettos, a wristful of bangles and a white Omega watch, along with effortless, loose waves.

BONA Lucky Night: For the event at Peace Hotel, Zhang wore a glossy copper-and-black Andrew Gn dress that featured a bold tribal-inspired pattern. She styled the dress with Jimmy Choo peep-toe pumps and H. Stern jewels. An updo would have changed up the look even more from her earlier entrance.

Sandra Bullock In Michael Kors & ASOS – ‘The Heat’ Berlin Photocall

Sandra Bullock brought a slick, classic approach to the red carpet today at ‘The Heat’ photocall in Berlin, Germany at Hotel De Rome.

Like at the film’s London screening, the actress worked another straightforward black ensemble. She fashionably forged together high-street and designer style with her Michael Kors button-up blouse from the Fall 2013 collection and an ASOS leather pencil skirt.

Further extending the tough-luxe appeal, she added a double stack of oversized link-chain Pomellato bracelets and Tabitha Simmons ‘Strippy’ gladiator-inspired sandals.

Sleek, straight locks and a metallic-smokey eye completed the look.
