Naomie Harris In Alexander McQueen – ‘Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom’ Royal Premiere

Naomie Harris attended the royal premiere of ‘Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom’ alongside Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge this evening.

I have been gushing over Naomie for a while now, and she continues to prove that the high-praise is justified in her Alexander McQueen gown.

The black strapless gown with gold embroidery enriching the peplum detailing may just be her best look yet, and I’m not just referring to this promo tour.

It fits to perfection; she oozes glamour and sex appeal, and the impeccable styling, including the hair and makeup, puts this on another level of brilliance.

This just might be a late contender for my BDOTY list.

You can buy Naomie’s Alexander McQueen Strapless Peplum Gown from Neiman Marcus.

Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge In Roland Mouret – ‘Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom’ Royal Premiere

Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge (Queen of Repeats) attended the royal premiere for ‘Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom’ this evening in London’s Leicester Square.

She wore a Roland Mouret Fall 2009 long-sleeved ivory gown featuring a demure side slit which was a repeat.

You may remember that she wore this dress to the Thirty Club dinner back in May last year.

This time she styled the look with a statement necklace and black accessories.

I wanted to rejoice this repeat because of the rare sighting of the ponytail and necklace (even though it doesn’t quite work with the dress for me), but when scrolling down she lost me at the black Mulberry clutch.

Both the clutch and shoes are way too heavy for this look.

Her styling of this look was far superior the first time around.

Now I understand why her last repeat was exactly the same from head to toe.

Sandra Bullock In Carolina Herrera – ‘Gravity’ Tokyo Premiere

Following yesterday’s red-hot press conference, Sandra Bullock took to the red carpet again this evening for the ‘Gravity’ premiere in Tokyo, Japan.

This time she opted for a very elegant Carolina Herrera Resort 2014 sculptural strapless silk faille navy-blue dress featuring a flounce skirt with a contrast sheer floral lace underlay.

I really like the simplicity of the look, but the black satin Charlotte Olympia platform pumps feel so heavy with the delicate hemline. The look book heels would’ve been perfect.

A single silver bangle, matte nude lips and a wavy updo provided the finishing touches.

Are the shoes a deal-breaker?

You can buy Sandra’s Carolina Herrera Silk Faille Strapless Dress from Saks.com and Saks.com UK.

Kaya Scodelario In Chanel – ‘The Truth About Emanuel’ LA Premiere

Kaya Scodelario joined Jessica Biel on the red carpet for the premiere of Tribeca Film and Well Go USA’s ‘The Truth About Emanuel’ held at ArcLight Hollywood in California yesterday evening.

The 21-year-old British actress wore a Chanel Spring 2014 white-and-black tweed dress with deep v-neckline and open-back which she styled with black Chanel pumps and gold swallow pendant necklace.

This a cute l look for the young actress. I especially love that gorgeous red lip which is making up for the uninspiring footwear.

Sandra Bullock In Roland Mouret – ‘Gravity’ Tokyo Press Conference

I was speaking of amazing promo tours yesterday and Sandra Bullock for ‘Gravity’ has also been very impressive.

That run continued yesterday afternoon when she attended a press conference for the movie held at the Grand Hyatt in Tokyo, Japan wearing a Roland Mouret ‘Breccia’ dress.

This red cap-sleeved dress makes quite an alluring impact with its figure-flattering silhouette, square neckline and signature asymmetrical precise folds and pleats.

With the elegantly sculpted dress taking centre stage, she styled the look with black pumps and a gold bracelet.

You may remember that Jodie Foster also wore this dress in a more muted jade-green hue.

You can buy Sandra’s Roland Mouret ‘Breccia’ Dress from farfetch.com US, farfetch.com and Selfridges.

Ahna O’Reilly In Tory Burch – Stella Artois’ Crystal Chalice Launch Event

Ahna O’Reilly attended a launch event for Stella Artois’ Crystal Chalice in New York City yesterday evening.

The ‘Fruitvale Station’ actress wore a Tory Burch royal-gold dress which couldn’t be more season appropriate with its decorative-arts influence.

The intricate cut-out design, made from lustrous silk-blend cloqué, features a uniquely raised tactile surface with a vibrant plum-coloured underlay and the glitter of bugle beads, creating an effect of tonal and textural brilliance.

Ahna added plum-coloured Tory Burch ‘Carley’ booties, which have a mannish element with the double monk strap, with the plush velvet feel giving them a feminine edge; however, they feel too heavy for this rich-textured mini dress.

Completing her head-to-toe Tory Burch look, she carried a wine-coloured ‘Adele’ resin minaudière with an artful design and leather fringe detailing.

Is there too much going on here for your liking?

I would only ditch the shoes here.
