Red Carpet Fashion Awards

President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama hosted a dinner for the Queen at Winfield House, the residence of the Ambassador of the United States of America, in Regent’s Park this evening dressed in their finest eveningwear after a long day of visits, politics, hand-shaking, motivational speaking and meetings.

Michelle looked stunning wearing a Ralph Lauren Fall 2011 elegant black gown with a portrait neckline.

The black satin wrap around bodice is met by a long black crepe skirt.

Not many people can out bling the Queen, but Mrs O does wearing a breath-taking necklace with a matching bracelet and an emerald ring.

I prefer this Ralph Lauren gown to the Tom Ford gown as it more dramatic and sophisticated.

Which do you prefer?

Michelle Obama delivered a motivational speech and answered student’s questions in Christ Church dining hall at the University of Oxford earlier today.

She opted for a chic black and white Alexander McQueen Resort 2011 look, which is her second piece from this collection.

Her crisp white Alexander McQueen Victorian bustle piquet shirt was paired with an Alexander McQueen ivory double buckle western belt and fitted black pants.

I would’ve preferred the look with a black belt.

Michelle Obama and Samantha Cameron reunited today in London to serve food to members of the military during a barbecue in the garden of 10 Downing Street.

Michelle opted to wear a Tracy Reese Pre-Fall 2011 dress which I don’t think was quite the right choice for a barbecue on a sunny day.

The crystal-embellished black chiffon dress has a white print detail on the bodice, cuffs and skirt.

Despite the lightweight fabric, the look still feels so heavy when you compare Michelle to Samantha.

Samantha’s Jonathan Saunders Spring 2011 short sleeve dress with a green waistband was much more summery and appropriate for the event.

Love that both women supported designers from their respective countries.

Solange Knowles, Cassie and Selita Ebanks attended the Carol’s Daughter Event At Sephora in New York City yesterday.

The trio – who are the new faces of haircare line Carol’s Daughter – all opted for very different looks.

Solange rocked her afro whilst wearing a lemon pant suit with a white shirt and python sandals.

Cassie showcased her Mohawk wearing a caramel Jen Kao knit mini dress with Isabel Marant Gava cotton-raffia and leather pumps and gold hooped earrings.

Selita sported a new blunt red bob wearing Christian Louboutin ‘Lady Daf’ pumps and a Karen Millen Tribal tutu dress Selena Gomez would pass on for being too cutesy.

Solange is the only one working her look.

The other two have been very misguided.

Oprah Winfrey officially said goodbye to her talk show, ‘Oprah’ as the Surprise Oprah! A Farewell Spectacular aired in the US yesterday.

The TV host wore Lorraine Schwartz jewels with her custom L’Wren Scott deep purple crepe gown which was embellished with turquoise and black floral embroidery.

Many of her superstar friends such as Diane Sawyer, Jay DeMarcus, Tom Hanks, Queen Latifah, Patti LaBelle, Beyonce Knowles, Madonna (in Miu Miu), Dakota Fanning (in Oscar de la Renta), Halle Berry (in Victoria Beckham) and Katie Holmes (in Chloe) and Tom Cruise wished her a fond farewell.

She has been a fixture in our lives for 25 years sharing everything from her wisdom to her weight battles, but she’s now moving onto focus on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN).

I bet there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.

Princess Beatrice joined her Grandmother, the Queen and her father Prince Andrew at the Chelsea Flower Show Press and VIP Day in London this afternoon.

The Princess opted for a magenta Roland Mouret ‘Lucile’ dress.

Her fitted dress with pleated cap sleeves a deep V-neck was paired with nude pumps and a matching clutch.

Her much-talked-about Philip Treacy fascinator – which you all hated – ended its auction on eBay this past Sunday.

You’ll be surprised to learn that it and sold for an outstanding £81,100.01.

The money raised is being donated by Princess Beatrice to UNICEF.
