On Monday I was pretty sure I was going to vote Cheryl Cole in Atelier Versace as my Best Dressed this week.

On Wednesday I then changed my mind and was certain Blake Lively in Marchesa was going to be my Best Dressed this week.

Then on Friday Lucy Liu swept me off my feet wearing Monique Lhuillier.

I’m sure many of you had the same late change of heart, as you voted for Lucy too.

Many said the that gown was so fabulous that it was impossible for Lucy to go wrong. I disagree because this dress could have come off looking very prom-like.

FashionLover said it best when describing Lucy as floating on cloud.

Thanks for your votes.

Lucy Liu arrived at the “Irene Diamond Award Gala” held at the Lincoln Center in New York last night looking absolutely amazing.

The actress wore a strapless Monique Lhuillier Resort 2010 white gown with thin black piping and a black ribbon tied to her waist.

As usual hair and make-up is flawless and she completed the look with a YSL Y mail clutch.

I think we’ve found a real challenger for Blake Lively this week.

10th Anniversary Woodstock Film Festival Launch Party, New York

Lucy Liu, you I love you more than most but this BCBG Max Azria Fall 2009 dress does nothing for you.

I don’t like the colour nor the shape.  It looks restricting like a straitjacket.

I will however compliment you on your Krocoa black patent clutch and dove grey peep-toes.

The Wonderbra Party Edition Launch, London

I only had to look at those fine embellishments around Dita Von Teese’s bust line to recognise that this black fitted skirt suit is by Dior.

The perfect silhouette for our porcelain princess.

Style360 Fashion Week Closing Party, New York

I’m quite surprised how much I like this chocolate brown embellished Hervé Léger by Max Azria Fall 2009 bandage dress.

She paired the dress with the perfect pair of strappy sandals.

NSF, The Human Society, And The GQ Magazine Benefit, LA

With her boyish crop Ginnifer Goodwin flashed us a smile wearing a leopard print Escada Fall 2009 button down dress with a fold-over detail, paired with black satin Brian Atwood “Starlet” pumps.

The lengths those Kardashian sisters will go to outdo each other sets a new low in attention seeking.

Khloe Kardashian who I believe is set to get married to her boyfriend of 5 mins this weekend, arrived at this event wearing sheer black sweater dress, which exposed her bra.

Seriously is it that hard to realise a nude bra will show up under a black dress such as this?

I’ve been on the fence regarding thigh-high boots for a while now, but Khloe has totally killed any desire I may have been secretly harboring.

Her Christian Louboutin Supra Fifre 120 thigh-high boots are so ‘Pretty Woman’.

“Par Coeur Gala” for Association Make A Wish with Tony Parker, Paris

Eva Longoria’s purple strapless dress neither excites nor disappoints.

It’s on-the-fence OK.

Gucci and Windsor Smith Honor Dr. James Orbinski and Dignitas International, New York

Camilla Belle opted for a navy blue wool kilt dress with buckle detailing down one-side.

Her look is paired with Gucci midnight blue platform heels and grey Gucci clutch.

2nd Annual ACM Honors, Nashville

I have grouped Carrie Underwood and Kellie Pickler together because they are equally tragic.

Seriously ladies what happened to you?

Did you lose Naeem Khan and Georges Chakra’s number?

Of all the celebrity obsessions Lucy Liu has the most serious addition to her Jimmy Choo ‘Idol’ platform heels.

Who can blame her as they’re exquisite. The nude Jimmy Choo platforms heels have a crossover strap with buckle fastening, cut out sections on the front, a peep toe and a contrasting black panel on the heel.

We first spotted Lucy wearing them back in November to the Alberta Ferretti LA store opening party, and again just recently when she attended the Swarovski Crystallized Concept Store Opening last month.

The thing about her heels is they give the actress the added height she wants plus - as you can see - they complement many colours from red to to pink to black to blue.

Net-A-Porter.com discount sister store Outnet.com are currently selling these heels at a 50% discount from £440 to £220.

Striking her favourite head slightly tilted pose, Blake Lively looked stunning on the red carpet wearing a white Roberto Cavalli dress from the Spring 2009 collection.

I’m glad she opted for the white shorter version and not the runway version, as she simply glows in this dress.

The dress is open at the back with black mesh panels on the side of the dress.

Just got out of bed hair and black studded Manolo Blahnik Creo heels complete this sexy look.

Last time out many of you commented that Evan Rachel Wood was slipping back to her Dita von Teese “copy cat” ways, well this is a complete 180.

Evan wore a Gucci Fall 2009 ensemble consisting of a midnight blue check boxy jacket with matching cigarette pants striking quite a masculine stance.

She also wore a striped shirt with black/white check collar and black pumps to complete the look.

Dita who?

This is the second outing for Chloe Sevigny’s camel Chloé scallop edged short suit.  This time she wears it with a multi-coloured sequined top and strappy two-tone sandals.

Lucy Liu brightens up the red carpet - as she always does - wearing a bold red cape Paul & Joe dress with a matching patent belt.

Her look is contrasted with neutral accessories including a white Prada bag and nude Jimmy Choo heels.

I’m glad she didn’t opt for red lips as it would have been too obvious. Nude lips work beautifully here.

Yesterday Lucy Liu arrived at the “Incognito Design” Exhibition Opening At The Whitney Museum in New York wearing a fantastically feminine Giamabattista Valli Spring 2009 cream strapless dress, with a heavily ruffled detail which sits on the bust.

I’ve loved this dress the second it was uploaded onto Style.com and since Lucy has worn many Valli pieces I was confident that she would wear this dress.

Unfortunately I’m not totally blow away as I thought I would be. She look gorgeous but I’m a bit disappointed by her hair.

A pony with a few strands framing her face isn’t quite the picture I had in mind. More like a classy updo.

Maybe I’m being overly picky.

A peachy clutch and bow-front Christian Louboutin heels completed the look.

Cameron Diaz looked angelic as she was honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame yesterday.

The actress wore a gorgeous white Oscar de la Renta dress, teamed with striking red accessories including a belt from the Oscar de la Renta Resort 2010 collection.

The gorgeous dress featuring intricate embroidery on the yoke and skirt.

Cameron dedicated the accolade to her parents, and was cheered on by a host of celebrity pals.

Which of course included TomKat.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes made an effort to be look super-cool in their casual looks.

Tom simply opted for a beige shirt and blue denims, Katie surprisingly wore a LnA top, Azzedine Alaia heels and a pair of ripped J Brand Zombie jeans, which nearly every A to Z lister has worn this summer.

Cameron Diaz’ Charlie’s Angel co-star Lucy Liu was also there to support her friend.

Lucy opted for a summery beige Max Azria dress with Jimmy Choo heels, gold leaf earrings and a golden clutch.
