Sarah Jessica Parker attended the Bravo’s Upfront Party in New York City on Wednesday night.

The “Sex And The City” star was joined by husband Matthew Broderick.

She wore a Stella McCartney Spring 2010 nude lace dress with a scalloped hem.

Her dress was paired with a white Stella McCartney blazer and multiple layered necklaces and bracelets.

I loved the look. It’s perfect to get us into a spring time mood, but those heels.

Yikes.

Nude, silver, taupe, even white…anything but black.

I also find the black bag to be distracting with this look.

I don’t believe Patricia Fields would’ve styled this look with black pumps.

Carey Mulligan attended the 82nd Academy Awards Nominee Luncheon in LA yesterday sporting a new crop and colour.

My immediate reaction was to hate it, but I’m guessing that’s from the shock.

I find it a bit strange and very risky to be switching things up so dramatically in the middle of awards season, but I guess with a crop which isn’t very versatile, a colour change was needed to keep her look fresh.

The ‘do might be new, but the designer is the same – Prada.

The LBD has a keyhole detail and a peplum at the waist which is becoming usual of her nice and nice style.

Black accessories complete the look along with bold red lips.

So how do you feel about Carey’s hair?

This weekend Jessica Alba attended the “Audi Super Bowl XLIV Party” at the W Hotel in South Beach, Florida.

She wore a sun shiny yellow Jenni Kayne Resort 2010 dress, which she paired with black peep-toes and a large statement necklace.

I love the dress, but feel the necklace is too overbearing.

For some reason I get the feeling that the bright dress and large necklace was an attempt to distract us from her new shorter ‘do.

Recently Jessica has been wearing her hair up, so this was her big reveal.

You may remember earlier in the year at the People’ Choice Awards her hair reached her shoulders.

I think the haircut is OK, but she needed to style it better.

Do you consider this a make-over, or make under?

Kimberley Walsh – aka the only member of Girls Aloud to maintain her beautiful curves – opened the new ‘New Look’ flagship store in Oxford Street last week.

Kimberley flaunted her killer curves wearing a black New Look eyelet dress which is from ‘Idol Range’ and looks fab at only £40.

She looked radiant with perfect pink lipstick, matching nail polish and black heels with a velvet bow.

I don’t hate the tights because they mirror the mesh yoke.

New Look’s launch is part of the retailers revamp, which incorporates a new advertising campaign fronted by ‘Gossip Girl’ actress Taylor Momsen.

Forget awards season, it feels like we’re in the middle of fragrance season as Kim Kardashian follows Beyonce Knowles in releasing a fragrance this week.

Kim – sans siblings – debuted her new signature scent at ‘Sephora’ in Florida last night.

Like Beyonce, Kim also wore a red dress to her launch but Kim’s was much more pleasing to the eye.

The reality TV star wore a red Azzedine Alaia flounce dress with a square neckline, which she paired with gold earrings, a stack of bangles and nude pumps.

Kim obviously wanted to look sexy on her big night.  The dress suits her figure and I love this red on her.

The flounce hem stops this dress from looking like another bandage dress, which we have grown long tired of seeing Kim wearing.

I don’t love the look, but I don’t hate it either.

REDEMPTION.

This (said like Ryan Seacrest) is doing a 180.

Beyonce Knowles went from tragic to magic in the space of 24 hours and I’m thankful to both her and her stylist.

At her “Heat” fragrance launch in Macy’s Herald Square in New York last night, Bey looked stunning wearing a navy Rafael Cennamo dress which was accented with patent leather straps and a leather belt.

I love everything about this look from the colour, to the exaggerated detail on the hips to those red hot Gianmarco Lorenzi heels which render me speechless.

I just wish she would do something with her hair. That two tone badger look is so very over and it was never a cute look to begin with.

*sings* “What a difference a day makes…24 little hours…”

BDOTW worthy for sure.

Two of my favourite diva’s Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce Knowles cozied up at the L.A.” Reid’s Post-Grammy Dinner party hosted by Jay-Z.

JLo continued her love affair with Versace wearing a peach strapless mini dress from the Spring 2010 collection, paired with gold Cartier cuffs and a matching peach satin purse.

I like the dress, but not on Jennifer.

From that Elvis quiff, the hideous tan lines to the colour washing her out, I just wish she opted for something more colourful to distract from the hair and tan lines.

I wish I could have found a full-length picture of Beyonce’s barely there black Balmain Spring 2010 ‘Zena Warrior Princess’ dress.

It looks like one of the pieces she wore in the Destiny’s Child “Survivor” video.

The dress just about covers her panty line, but kudos to her for not dumbing the look down with tights.

I wonder how long it will take for Alex Curran to be seen wearing this dress.
