30.07.09 Who Wore It Better?

Who Wore Herve Leger Better? Taraji P. Henson, Kiely Williams or Keisha Whitaker

Actress Taraji P. Henson arrived at “GlobalGrind.com Presents Russell Simmons Salute to Grammy Nominees” event back in February wearing a metallic gunmetal Herve Leger Spring 2009 dress with black Giuseppe Zanotti cut-out booties and a purple clutch.

Kiely Williams wore the same dress to the “Rally For Kids” Cocktail Party back in May with my favourite taupe Fendi satin bow pumps.

Keisha Whitaker walked the red carpet at the 2009 MTV Movie Awards with her husband wearing the same dress with bright pink heels.

Kiely wins this for me mostly because of the shoes, but most importantly because she didn’t over accessorize her look, which she is known to do.

Eva Mendes For Marie Claire UK September 2009

Eva Mendes graces the cover of Marie Claire’s September 2009 UK edition, and I’m floored by how beautiful she looks on the cover.

Her editorial was shot by Marc Hom which sees Eva on the cover wearing a beautiful tulle Lanvin strapless dress with a pearl bracelet.

The rest of her editorial includes two stunning Luisa Beccaria gowns and a sexy Blumarine animal print gown, which show both a sexy and a softer side of her stunning beauty.

In the magazine which is out now Eva talks about her curves and her stint in rehab stint.

Here are some extracts from her interview:

On dressing her curves: “I love my curves and I embrace them, but I have to walk a fine line. There are certain dresses that are like: ‘Oh, this is really feminine. This isn’t sexy at all’, but then I’d try it on and it just turned. I think it comes down to being voluptuous, and if your body’s a certain way, then things can go distasteful in a second. I have to walk a fine line.”

29.07.09 Social Events of The Week

Social Events Of The Week

“Adam” New York Screening

Rose Byrne looked stunning wearing a baltic blue lace Christian Cota turtleneck dress with structured shoulders.

The actress teamed her look with a slicked-back ponytail, Bottega Veneta jewelry, Brian Atwood patent quilted Maniacs pumps and a silver Max Azria clutch.

Rose never disappoints.

Claire Danes looked stunning supporting her fiancée Hugh Dancy at the premiere of his new movie last night.

As always she kept her look simple wearing a white Zac Posen strapless gown with an eye-catching leaf waist belt.

Entertainment Weekly And Syfy Celebrate Comic-Con, San Diego

Hayden Panettiere looked fabulous wearing a violet Zuhair Murad Spring 2009 strapless cocktail dress with ruched detailing, as she was spotted leaving the “Entertainment Weekly and Syfy Invade Comic-Con” party.

Sporting that glow which everyone is radiating at Comic Con, Hayden paired her dress with a rose clutch and black Christian Louboutin heels.

Despite this being a simple strapless L’Wren Scott dress Jennifer Love Hewitt fails to pull it off for me.

The dress should have been shortened as it stops at a very awkward length.

The actress arrived with her boyfriend Jamie Kennedy who appears to be auditioning for a part in Zoolander 2 with that pout.

The Comedy Central Roast Of Joan Rivers, California

I never thought I would ever feature Joan Rivers in my blog, but comedienne walked the red carpet wearing a gold Dries van Noten Spring 2009 cropped jacket to spruce up her LBD.

Work it girl.

Melissa Rivers opted for a coral Herve Leger dress.

Give credit were credit is due, she does look amazing in the dress, but I’m lusting after her nude platform Louboutin’s.

Disney Stars Join Rich Ross At “A Summer Soiree – The Magic of Mentoring”, Beverly Hills

Ashley Tisdale wore a simple white dress with a tulip skirt with the same studded Miu Miu Rivet sandals we saw on Sarah Jessica Parker recently.

Is Selena Gomez a teen or a middle aged woman? Because from this look it’s hard to tell.

These Disney girls are becoming so boring.

Runway To “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra 2009″ Seoul Press Conference – Sienna Miller In Diane von Furstenberg

After Sienna Miller gave us such a dramatic look this week, she reverted back to a cute look we’re more used to seeing from her at the “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra 2009″ Seoul Press Conference earlier today.

Sienna opted for a tropical print Diane von Furstenberg Resort 2010 tunic dress, with thick tights and black suede lace-up boots.

I love that she’s mixing up her looks and giving us something new every time after being so predictable for so long.

Her hair cascaded over her shoulders whilst her skin was glowing and flawless – as always.

I love this dress so much that I won’t complain about the tights, nor the black boots.

29.07.09 Runway to SidewalkX Factor

Runway To X Factor Bootcamp – Cheryl Cole In Vanessa Bruno

As much as I’m selling to you that Cheryl Cole is moving away from her WAG image, you guys just ain’t buying it.

This week Cheryl was spotted back in London to judge the X Factor bootcamp auditions at the Hammersmith Apollo.

We’ve seen her in Milly, 3.1 Phillip Lim and Tibi, but this time she opts for a very sophisticated Vanessa Bruno sleeveless dress.

I love the rich aubergine colour, the fit, the dart detailing and as much as it pains me to admit it, I even love her sheer tights as they add an air of elegance to her look.

With her hair skillfully teased her look is completed with a pair of her favourite brand of heels – Rupert Sanderson.

Are you convinced yet?

Her dress is available to purchase from the Net-A-Porter International site for £265.02/€325.23.

29.07.09 In Her Closet

In Ashley Roberts’ Closet – Alexander McQueen Red Pencil Dress

When Ashley Roberts attended The Cartier International Polo Day earlier this week, I wrote that she wore a Vivienne Westwood dress.

Thanks to Daniel I learnt that the dress is in fact by Alexander McQueen, and it was just uploaded onto the virtual shelves of Net-A-Porter 10 mins ago.

Browns Fashion also has this dress in a silver lamé version.
