Cartier / Art of Elysium LOVE Bracelet Event, New York

Eva Mendes combines timeless chic with modern elegance.

She looked sophisticated wearing a Michael Kors folded shift dress, with a gorgeous metallic fabric.

Her dress was paired with ultra-high black Casadei platform heels and a selection of the sponsors jewelery.

Children Uniting Nations 4th Annual National Conference Gala Dinner, Washington

Gabrielle Union wore a silk chiffon strapless BCBG raspberry gown with a bejeweled detail on the empire waist.

The colour is stunning against her skin. She looks as beautiful as ever.

Launch of the Exclusive Deluxe Version of The E.N.D, New York

Fergie wore a taupe Max Azria sateen origami strapless dress, with black Walter Steiger heels.

What I love here is her corset-like belt, which give the dress a edgier look.

Fergie is never boring on the red carpet, and I love her for that.

Camilla And Marc Dinner

WOOOHoooo, we have a smile.

Many of you have noted that Ginnifer Goodwin never smiles. We get the odd smirk from time to time, but this is a full on grin.

The host of this dinner, wore a white one-shouldered white mini with black open-toe Mechante of London ankle boots.

It’s a shame she didn’t have enough time to press her dress though.

I’ve been a great admirer of Lynn Collins style since she burst onto the scene. I love her Camilla & Marc LBD, with the lace insert and tiered skirt, but the hair and make-up really let her down.

Also I’m tiring of booties with everything.

Catherine Malandrino Boutique Launch At Harrods, London

Catherine Malandrino was in London to launch her new boutique within Harrods departments store. The designer epitomizes everyday chic wearing a gorgeous green pleated empire waist dress from her own collection.

This dress is captivating with its ruffled sleeves. It’s the perfect day to night dress.

Elizabeth Hurley opted for a Catherine Malandrino black strapless dress with multi coloured embroidered rosettes at bust and multicolored banding at the waist.

I wouldn’t have had Liz down as a Malandrino girl as she is so high maintenance, but she looks great in this dress.

Each month I buy Vogue UK, US, Paris, Harper’s Bazaar, Elle and InStyle.

I’m honestly not really a fan of Tatler magazine as I’m not really their target audience.

Not until I saw the breathtakingly beautiful Marchesa designer Georgina Chapman on their July 2009 cover.

Georgina creates those fairy-tale like red carpet gowns, little girls – and big girls like you and I dream of wearing some day.

She was of course wearing her Fall 2009 designs on the cover, and throughout rest of her editorial which was shot by Mary McCartney.

In her interview with David Jenkins she talks about her heroine Joan Collins, how she won over Hollywood with Marchesa and her frantic life with husband Harvey Weinstein.

On her earliest red carpet creations being linked to Harvey Weinstein’s films: “I hired Hollywood publicist Nancy Ryder, and she introduced Marchesa to Hollywood’s A-List. If someone doesn’t like what I do, that’s OK everyone is entitled to their opinion. But if they don’t like like what I do because of who I’m married to, that’s unfair.”

When I saw Emily Deschanel on red carpet wearing this Gustavo Cadile strapless gown I instantly recognised it, because I tried it on during New York Fashion Week, when I visited the designer at his Manhattan studio.

The outstanding rose tulle gown is from Gustavo Cadile’s Fall 2009 collection. I adore the tiered skirt which make it feel like a princess gown.

I was surprised that Emily wore a black knotted belt with the dress, because the pink bejeweled ribbon was perfect. But either way it works.

I love that she didn’t add too many jewels, or even carry a clutch as this dress stands alone.

I’m so honoured to have tried on this gown, and I can imagine the butterflies she had when she put on this gown.

Kate Walsh showed off her very sassy side in a baby blue Missoni dress, with a thigh high split.

For some reason I’m more in love with her hair. Those curls are so cute and look so bouncy.

Jennifer Love Hewitt arrived with her actor boyfriend Jamie Kennedy looking exquisite wearing a nude gown. She was radiating beauty. I’ve never been so taken by her.

This gown with a risqué plunging neckline more than makes up for the previous secretary chic look.

I don’t know why but I was totally captivated by Spanish actress Marta Torne.

Her porcelain skin, the sexy silhouette of her slate grey strapless ruched bodice gown, and those bold red lips are all perfect. Not a single fault can I find.

Such a quiet elegant beauty, I adore her here.

Lori Loughlin looks amazing again. This time wearing a navy blue haltered gown, with an embellished neckline.

Her look was complete with a gold box clutch which complemented the gold detail on her gown.

Kim Kardashian for me the worst dressed at this event. She did a complete 180 from her previous looks.

I love her hair and make-up, but the Ports 1961 strapless gown is way too gaudy for my liking. The runway version wouldn’t have suited her either.

This is a bit of a step back imo.

Camila Alves looked truly stunning on the arm of Matthew McConaughey last night, as she channeled her inner Grecian goddess wearing a gorgeous teal asymmetrical Monique Lhuillier Pre-Fall 2009 gown whilst sporting a curly updo.

Her look was completed with a silvery grey VBH Python Stinger clutch with Swarovski crystals and matching jewelry.

This genetically-blessed couple really sizzle together, and know how to light up the red carpet.

Sharon Stone continues to show off her fabulous body this white Herve Leger bandage gown.

Pilates? Yoga? She must tell us her secret.

I’m sure like me you would have noticed that Sharon presents at many events, she must be very entertaining host.

Michael Douglas followed in the footsteps of stars like Al Pacino, Meryl Streep and his dad Kirk Douglas, by receiving the 37th Annual AFI Lifetime Achievement Award.

Catherine Zeta-Jones always outshines her husband, and this event was no exception.

The Welsh actress old wore a strapless maroon Randi Rahm gown, with an embellished bodice and a very high split.

Everything is perfect apart from her hair. Is it me or does it look very limp?

Jane Seymour is another lady who always shines, this time aided by her cream swirling print shimmering gown.
