Apart from Gwyneth Paltrow there was not much to wow about on the red carpet this week. Michelle Monaghan had a great week, but nearly all her dresses were black.

The only dress that really stood out for me was this white belted Nathan Jenden Spring 2008 dress which Brit singer Leona Lewis wore to the MTV Australia Awards.

I loved the pouffy skirt and her confident smile, which is rare on the usually shy singer.

She is so beautiful.

Leona Lewis Media Call, Sydney

Having taken America by storm, British singer Leona Lewis has now conquered Australia.

She performed a special showcase concert at the prestigious Sydney Museum of Contemporary Art last night wearing a beautiful white Versace Fall 2007 flowing gown.

Stunning as ever.

“War, Inc.” Premiere, New York

Hilary Duff wore a classic black knee-length spaghetti strap Dolce & Gabbana dress with matching Christian Louboutin Joli-Noeud Slingback peep-toe heels.

Haylie Duff also in head to toe black, wore a What Comes Around Goes Around drop waist LBD, with a satin trim, peep-toes and a Chanel clutch.

“Everywhere At Once” Screening, New York

Ashley Olsen has been out a few times this week sans make-up. Brave girl.

As usual she is effortlessly casual in a grey sweater, black mini skirt and blue and green tie-dye Balenciaga gladiator sandals.

Impossibly beautiful Helena Christensen matches her turquoise kitty heels, with her Stella McCartney Spring 2008 embroidered strapless nude dress.

“Speed Racer” Premiere, London

Christina Ricci’s black Alberta Ferretti Fall 2008 sleeveless dress is very much on the red carpet fish scale trend.

MTV TRL, New York

Hilary Duff’s golden skin glows in this tangerine Yoana Baraschi ruffled top with short shorts and nude pumps.

Estelle’s ruby pumps are a cute touch to her all white ensemble.

“Late Show with David Letterman”, New York

Alicia Keys is not afraid of of showing of her gorgeous curves in this skin-tight grey Calvin Klein turtle-neck dress.

Hollywood Life Magazine’s 10th Annual Young Hollywood Awards, LA

Brittany Snow wore a body hugging silver and nude mesh Marchesa Spring 2007 dress with a fish scale detail and silver shoes.

Had I seen this dress on a rail, I would have recoiled in horror, but on Brittany and on the runway, it really beautiful.

Fish scales seem to be hot this spring, Gwyneth Paltrow and Marion Cotillard have both worn fish scale-eqse dresses this season.

I usually love whatever America Ferrera wears on the red carpet, even if it is her trademark black, but I don’t think this Lela Rose Spring 2008 petal dress is very flattering on her.

Taylor Swift showed off her natural beauty in a lilac-colored sleeveless dress, with a pair of strappy gold sandals.

Emmanuelle Chriqui neon green drop waist satin dress is just a really bad, BAD choice.

Fabulous.

Andrea Bowen usually opts for ensemble older than her years.

This is extremely sexy, elegant, young and fun.

Silver Rose Awards & Auction Gala, LA

Halle Berry makes her first red carpet appearance this weekend, since giving birth to her first daughter Nahla six weeks ago.

Like most Hollywood stars, she looks like she never had a baby in the first place.

Halle looks incredibly sexy in this very a low-cut leopard print Dolce & Gabbana empire-waist cocktail dress, which shows off her always impressive lady lumps.

Ludacris Foundation, Atlanta

Fergie looks stunning in this taupe brocade, spaghetti strapped Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2008 dress with a tulle overlay.

She wore the dress with a black leather jeweled belt, to further nip in her tiny waist.

Magnum Devotion Ice Cream Promotion, Mexico

Eva Longoria is not afraid of colour, and she proves it here in this mustard yellow strapless figure hugging Escada Spring 2008 dress.

Kirrily Johnston Show, Australian Fashion Week, Sydney

Miranda Kerr wore a silver gathered dress by Kirrily Johnton with nude peep-toes.

I like her bright pink Prada Pochette, but I do not think it compliments her dress.

Mishca Barton wore a Grecian-style mini dress, with a embellished neckline by Kirrily Johnton.

“Speed Racer” Los Angeles Premiere, LA

Christina Ricci carried a B.Romanek clutch with her Bill Blass Fall 2008 black and white floral dress.

She teamed her dress with the red carpet must haves - white shoes.

I adore Ginnifer Goodwin’s multi-coloured halter Catherine Malandrino dress, and she is also wearing white shoes.

Emmy Rossum’s halter Herve LeRoux dress is very elegant, and I love this royal blue on her.

I admire Emmy’s restraint for appearing on the red carpet without a hint of prom queen for a second time in a row.

MTV Australia Awards 2008

Eve is smokin’ hot in this micro mini gold chain off-the-shoulder dress from Jenny Packham’s Spring 2008 collection. She wore her dress with a pair of with with gold YSL tribute platform sandals.

I tried Eve’s YSL heels on this weekend, and it is like balancing on a pin, the heel is so thin. I admire these women for wearing these shoes so confidently on the red carpet.

Leona Lewis arrived wearing a fluffy Nathan Jenden Spring 2008 dress, that had a tiered tulle skirt, teamed with silver jewelery and silver shoes.

Mischa Barton did her best impression of a Hollywood starlet in a wet-look Willow Spring 2008 mini dress with a feathered coat.

MTV Australia Awards Press Call, Sydney

Mishca also wore a Willow Spring 2008 dress for this event, which frankly does not work for her.

Vanity Fair Party, New York

Iman looked stunning in a magenta floral-print asymmetric dress with white shoes.

Grace Hightower beautifully matches her pink lipstick with her multi-coloured Naeem Khan Spring 2008 kaftan.

7th Annual Tribeca Film Festival - “Savage Grace” Premiere, New York

Julianne Moore looks very sophisticated in a black satin YSL Fall 2008 gown with tiering down one-side and a large patent belt.

Bloomberg Pre Dinner Cocktail Reception, Washington

Lauren Conrad is still not wearing her designs. Instead she wore a black Foley + Corinna Hollywood Dress to this event with black peep-toe heels.

Ashlee Simpson with her fiance Pete Wentz, looking gorgeous in a LBD and a stunning embroidered clutch. Peter on the other hand arrived in pants about 3 ins too short.

Jenny McCarthy has come a long way from acting the fool on MTV. I am not crazy about the hair, but the plunge-neck gown is stunning on her.

With her hair pulled back, I would have loved Liya Kebede’s look in this black Derek Lam Fall 2008 off-the-shoulder dress.

Jennifer Garner was accompanied to this prestigious event with her husband Ben Affleck, wearing a black plunge-neck sleeveless Oscar de la Renta Fall 2008 dress and black peep-toes.

This is a strange colour choice, but Rosario Dawson works this lime green strapless Versace gown.

7th Annual Tribeca Film Festival - “From Within” Premiere, New York

Rumer Willis seems determined to work this longer hairstyle, despite how ridiculous it looks on her.

“Hotel Gramercy Park” Premiere, New York

Selita Ebanks strikes a pose in this 3.1 Philip Lim Spring 2008 flirty LBD.

19th Annual GLAAD Media Awards, LA

Since when has it been acceptable not wear shoes on the red carpet?

Another perfectly good Hervé Léger Foil print bandage dress wasted on Joss Stone.

For once the dress is not the issue with Sharon Stone, the hair is.

Janet Jackson appears to have been in a rush to get to this event, because the poor girl did not have time to run an iron over her wide-leg pants.

Sarah Silverman’s shoes are too clunky for this sexy Dolce & Gabbana dress.

Becki Newton glows in this yellow Gucci on shouldered mini dress.

Cindy Crawford is wearing a red asymmetrical Alexander McQueen dress with gold shoes, chunky gold bangles and gold clutch.

The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, LA

Yesterday Leona Lewis became the first British female in over two decades to top the American charts, with her debut single Bleeding Love.

The talented Brit, and former receptionist, performed her hit single on Jay Leno’s show this week wearing a black and white Abaete Rita Strapless Dress with an asymmetrical bodice.

2008 USA Network UpFront, New York

Debra Messing wore this strapless red Donna Karen Spring 2008 dress with embroidery detail. She complimented her cummerbund with a pair of nude strappy sandals.

Mary McCormack may not have realised when she put on her sleevless top that her bra underneath would be visible to the world, thanks to a camera flashbulb. She teams her top with a black and white Pringle Of Scotland Spring 2008 skirt, thick black tights and black patent pumps.

Vogue Eyewear “Play Everyday” Campaign Launch, Spain

Gisele Bundchen is stunning in this white Herve Leger dress and I absolutely adore her snakeskin heels. I would kill for a pair of those.

Sony Ericsson Kickoff Party for the Sony Ericsson Open, Miami

I am not crazy about Camilla Belle’s multi-coloured Carlos Miele Spring 2008 dress. The gathered detailed on the skirt seems a little over the top for me, but she does make it work.

Anna Kournikova makes every man’s dreams come true, by wearing short shorts.

Maria Sharapova does the same in this ultra short mini shirt with wedges that make her long legs even longer.

“21″ Screening, New York

Kate Bosworth in her simple Calvin Klein ensemble is stunningly elegant. Her cropped blazer is minimal but has a cool structured feel to it.

For the after party, she went without the blazer in which her crossover gold necklace stood out as the perfect finishing touch.

This Calvin Klein playsuit for some reason makes Mary-Kate Olsen look very short.

Kylie Minogue won the International Female Solo Artist Award at tonight’s Brit Awards. I keep forgetting she is Australian, as she has played a very large part in British pop culture.

Tonight Kylie went for all-out-glamour. She wore a sparkly strapless velvet vintage black dress by Vicky Tiel.

The sparkles were also dripping from her ears and around her neck.

Fabulous.

Rihanna looked incredibly cute wearing a metallic silver dress by Dolce & Gabbana, with matching silver shoes.

Rihanna surprisingly did not win any awards tonight.

The Gossip singer Beth Ditto looks looks like a cute sugar plum fairy in her pretty pink prom dress which was custom-made by Luella.

Adele won the Music Critic’s Award, but she loses in the style stakes wearing all black. Beth Ditto needs to give Adele style tips.

This gold mini dress is just too cheap and brassy for Denise Van Outen.

Co-host Kelly Osbourne wore this multi-block-coloured gown.

I have been preferring her shorter looks lately.

Katherine Jenkins gave Kylie a run for her money in the style-stakes wearing an ivory Valentino Spring 2008 off-the-shoulder mini flapper-style dress.

Attention seeking Abigail Clancy, got the attention she was clearly looking for when she wore this sheer dress.

I don’t know what I am more annoyed at, the shamelessness of this stunt, or that fact that she is not wearing matching underwear.

KT Tunstall wore a stunning beaded number. I am usually not a fan of her style, but she gets it right me here.

Kate Nash is another lady who is pretty in pink, right down to her shoes.

Kelly Rowland’s dress has Tina Knowles written all over it, tacky, tacky and tacky, but at least she had the feathers to keep her warm.

Backstage Kelly looked more like a star and less like a streetwalker in this plunge-neck gown.

Leona Lewis in this Roberto Cavalli dress is a little boring and predictable here, when so many others opted for loud bright colours.

Alesha Dixon did not dare to go bare legged in this ultra mini red dress from Jenny Packham’ Fall 2007 collection.

Ferne Cotton has nice legs, but I am hating this red playsuit from PPQ.

Cheryl Cole (in yellow) recently found out in that her husband is a no-good cheating skank.

She has been going though the heart-breaking decision of leaving him, but does not let the anguish show here. Quite the opposite in fact, she is showing Mr Cole just what he is missing.

Good on your girl, way to keep your head up. He is not worth it.

In case you were wondering, I am HATING the lipstick, everything else works though.

I am loving what the other girls are wearing as they look sexy and fun, but the Farrah Fawcett hair on the red head, Nicole, is just killing me.
