Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Monthly Archives: November 2009

Back in June Michelle Williams attended the “2009 Fresh Air Fund Salute To American Heroes” wearing this toughened-up prom style piece.

She looked angelic wearing the 3.1 Phillip Lim silk mini dress with sequin detail paired with metallic shoes to match the gold neck detail.

Yoon-A then sported a deep blue version of the same dress to the “46th Daejong Film Awards” in Seoul.

She too opted for a small angular clutch and kept her hair and make-up simple like Michelle.

Vivica A Fox is the third celeb to choose this 3.1 Phillip Lim dress.

She wore it to the opening night of the ‘Bel Air Film Festival’ this weekend.

Vivica’s rouge lips are a nice touch as are the gold tear-drop earrings she has on, but I’m not too sure about her white Christian Louboutin Maggie heels.

Michelle, Yoon-A and Vivica all look gorgeous, it’s a tough call. Michelle’s ivory version just about beats the blue for me.

I prefer that you can see more of the shape of the dress and see the quality of the fabric too.

The colouring suits Michelle’s soft features and blonde locks.

This dress is available to purchase from Net-A-Porter and Browns Fashion.

“Broken Embraces” New York Screening

On Penelope Cruz’ last red carpet outing she was head-to-toe in black.

This time she lightens up wearing an ivory Calvin Klein Pre-Fall 2009 look consisting of a full-length coat and 3/4 length sleeved velvet dress.

The colour is gorgeous against her olive skin and I love her glossy tumbling wavy locks.

I love it when Pen’s on top form, and this is one of those enjoyable occasions.

Printemps Christmas Window Display Launch, France

Natalia Vodianova can do pretty dresses, we all know that.

Here she proves she can look stunning wearing a navy blue Givenchy Fall 2009 suit.

The cut is exquisite and I love that she didn’t over accessorize this look.

‘Nine’ Screening, New York

I like Fergie’s Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2009 ensemble, and I don’t even mind the tights.

I just wish she’d loosen up that severe hairstyle, as it throws me off loving the look.

The Whaleman Foundation Benefit, LA

Sporting new bangs Hayden Panettiere looked stunning wearing an eggshell Tadashi Shoji Spring 2010 dress with an asymmetrical twisted neckline and a twisted detail on the skirt.

This colour shows off her year-round California tan.

I loved her gold trimmed accessories which included a Bally Agrippa-E clutch and Yves Saint Laurent Tribute suede sandals, which complimented her gold cuff.

“Star Trek” DVD/Blu-Ray Release Party, LA

After not being in love with Zoe Saldana last red carpet looks, she totally redeems herself wearing a Narciso Rodriguez Spring 2010 black and nude dress.

I’m loving those subtle animal print heels and that sheer draping neckline.

“Late Show With David Letterman”, New York

Nicole Kidman has been getting first dibs on all the L’Wren Scott Spring 2010 pieces, but Penelope got to pick this stunning black dress.

It’s simple, chic, shows of her stunning figure, plus I love the leather detailing on the shoulders.

I’m not sure why, but I’m currently obsessed with her glossy hair.

The Hollywood Reporter Honors Eva Longoria Parker With Philanthropist Of The Year Award, LA

Kate Beckinsale wears her second Andrew GN look this week.

Many of you said you find her red carpet style stale, boring, predictable and samey, but there’s not mermaid hem on this black long sleeved Andrew GN Spring 2010 dress.

Don’t you just love that silver beaded embellishment at waist which make the dress more interesting?

Grey YSL Tribute suede pumps and a black clutch complete the look.

I’m getting seriously worried that the current trend to apply a lot of white eyeshadow is catching on.

It’s very subtle on Eva Longoria, unlike Taraji P. Henson.

Eva was honoured at this event, walked the red carpet wearing a sexy red asymmetrical ruched Badgley Mischka Fall 2009 dress.

Unfortunately the hair and make-up puts me off loving this look.

Leona Lewis’ Album Celebration, LA

Oh Ciara. From the long shot and especially in the close up, all I can focus on are your goodies when I should be loving those delightful ruffled shoulders.

Sheer dress + no bra + flash blubs = exposure.

Celebrity red carpet dressing 101.

As much as I’m loving this new improved attitude from Leona Lewis, I’m not loving her obsession with those corseted belts.

It has worked on a few pieces, but on a Herve Leger bandage dress is just makes no sense at all.

Just don’t get me started on the ankle boots.

Rachel Bilson has an accessory-obsession.

In July it was the green Chanel Wayfarers.

In August it was the hunter green shoulder bag.

Recently Rachel has been unable to leave home without her newest obsession – her 3.1 Phillip Lim ‘Edie’ bow studded bag.

We’ve seen Rachel strutting about town getting a good wear out of her new love.

The ex O.C-star carries her ‘Edie’ everywhere; to grab a coffee, shop at Staples in LA, stop off at her local Gelson’s and it’s still by her side on her way to an audition.

Also loving the Edie is Diane Kruger, Nicky Hilton and Leighton Meester, notice Leighton’s brightened red and navy version.

A warm alternative and perfect Christmas-present colour! Get hinting ladies….

We’ve only found this bag online at Colette and we’re just as in love with it as Rachel.

So far the best looks Kristen Stewart has given us during the “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” promotional tour in my opinion were her Balenciaga and Proenza Schouler looks.

Why?

Because these look weren’t to girlie.

Last night Kristen and Taylor Lautner attend a screening of the movie in Tennessee wearing a Jason Wu Spring 2010 girlie dress.

Technically it shouldn’t have worked, but Kristen didn’t make this look seem like too much hard work.

I like that she belted the dress, and managed to keep her hair under control.

It’s wasn’t Cinderella fantasy tulle gown that didn’t suit her shape, nor personality and I don’t feel like she was wrestled into this dress.

This week Kristen was on the “Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien” to promote the movie.

On the show she runs her fingers throw Conan’s hair after admitting she was “jealous” that Nikki Reed ran run her fingers through O’Brien’s hair during a 2008 Late Night appearance.

In the interview interview she talks about not liking fame, and expresses that she’s in the industry to make movies that her fans will love.

Will they love her wearing this black and white Herve Leger Resort 2010 dress?

Maybe they will, but they can’t seriously applaud that frightful hairstyle.
