Felicity Jones In Proenza Schouler – ‘Breathe In’ Edinburgh Film Festival Opening Gala Screening

Felicity Jones attended the opening night gala screening of ‘Breathe In’ during the Edinburgh Film Festival yesterday evening.

The British actress wore a Proenza Schouler Pre-Fall 2013 black-trimmed boucle-jacquard dress with a square-cut neckline, which is feminine yet fashion forward.

She chose to keep the styling minimal, opting for a leather belt and patent-leather pumps, and with just a hint of pink applied to her lips, she completed her look with kohl-rimmed eyes and sleek straight raven locks.

You may remember that Miranda Kerr wore this same dress to the CFDA Fashion Awards earlier this month and Freida Pinto wore the volcanic version of this same dress earlier this year.

Who Wore Roberto Cavalli Better…Karolina Kurkova or Solange Knowles?

Karolina Kurkova wore a Roberto Cavalli printed blazer and blouse from the designer’s Spring 2013 collection with Marissa Webb leather pants and Ruthie Davis ‘Captiva’ pumps while making a guest appearance on The Today Show to promote ‘The Face’ back in March.

Two months later, Solange Knowles wore the full runway look styled with a Vionnet green clutch while attending the Belvedere Vodka ‘Walks Its Way’ Run D.M.C. party during Cannes Film Festival.

While I love the runway look, I would’ve preferred a narrower pant on Solange.

Karolina wins for me as I prefer her overall styling, from the unbuttoned blouse to the sexy leather pants.

Chanel The Little Black Jacket Exhibition: Beijing

The Little Black Jacket exhibition hosted by Chanel was presented in Beijing, China yesterday evening with a mix of local celebs and Chanel ambassadresses.

Zhou Xun: No stranger to wearing Chanel, the Asian beauty looked like a delicate porcelain doll, wearing a black-and-white Chanel Spring 2013 Couture sequin dress featuring floral embroidery. Everything about her look is so sculptured, right down to her bowl haircut. The only thing I would change about the look is the platform stripper-like heels.

Zhang Ziyi: The actress was the picture of elegance once again, wearing a chic yet laidback look from Chanel’s Pre-Fall 2013 collection. I didn’t see much red carpet potential from this collection considering how heavily layered each piece was presented. However, I love that Ziyi stripped back the layers to give us this beautiful look, which she styled with a Chanel Fall 2012 silver belt and Chanel Fine jewelry. Step back people, she’s on a roll.

Alicia Vikander: The Swedish actress wore a summery look from the Chanel Resort 2013 collection. Her flirty blue lace top and skirt was styled with an ocean-blue-and-white clutch and striped blue-and-white Chanel Resort 2013 shoes to add a nautical vibe to her sophisticated look.

Michelle Obama In Carolina Herrera – Charlottenburg Palace Berlin Dinner

First Lady Michelle Obama, President Barack Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel attended the dinner given in honour of the President at the Orangerie of Schloss Charlottenburg palace in Berlin, Germany this evening.

Obama is visiting Berlin for the first time during his presidency and his speech at the Brandenburg Gate is set to be the highlight. Obama will be speaking close to the 50th anniversary of the historic speech by then U.S. President John F. Kennedy in Berlin in 1963, during which he proclaimed the famous sentence: ‘Ich bin ein Berliner.’

Michelle wore a Carolina Herrera Pre-Fall 2013 dress for the occasion.

The sleeveless wave pattern jacquard party dress featuring grosgrain bow accented straps, a high squared neck, a drop waist; and pleating at the skirt was styled with black kitten heels.

I have loved a lot of Michelle red carpet choices; however, I’m on the fence with this one.

It’s the bows which given me a feeling that this dress may have been better suited to the likes of Camilla Belle, Emmy Rossum or Kiernan Shipka.

She would’ve looked better in the sheath version of this dress – sans bows.

Olivia Palermo For Carrera y Carrera

Olivia Palermo appears in the ad campaign for Carrera y Carrera for the third year in a row.

The socialite, who is the muse for the prestigious jewelry firm, wore jewels inspired by the splendour of the Spanish Empire for Carrera y Carrera’s ‘Tesoros del Imperio’ collection, so it’s no wonder she looks so regal in the campaign.

Olivia shared, “I think this collection from Carrera y Carrera is absolutely beautiful. I found out what the inspiration was a year ago, and now that I see the final product, I’m very pleased… Both the rings and the earrings this season are very wearable.”

I’m sure we will see Olivia wearing these exquisite pieces accessorizing alongside her favoured feathered clutches on a red carpet soon.
