I’ve often wondered why celebs don’t wear Vera Wang on the red carpet.
She makes wearable stylish pieces, but I guess celebs just needed to be formally introduced to her work. Hence Ms Wang throwing a store launch party in LA last night.
Renee Zellweger put her best Jimmy Choo clad foot forward wearing a burgundy ruched strapless Vera Wang Fall 2010 top paired with a black pencil skirt.
For once I don’t feel a sense of de ja vu when looking at Renee.
I love this look, but did she have to wear so many gold rings.
It’s very BA Baracus from the A Team to wear that many gold rings.
Renee walked the red carpet at the Berlin Film Festival last night for the “Tuan Yuan” premiere wearing a petrol blue – probably Carolina Herrera – gown which looks so very familiar.
The silhouette, the colour, the bodice, the hairstyle. Everything screams we’ve seen it all before.
I used to love Renee’s style, now I’m tiring of this same old, same old.
Despite my rant this is a stunning gown with a bow detail on the back, and as always her body is well toned.
Zoe Saldana glowed as always wearing a Calvin Klein Spring 2010 ivory dress.
The dress which is gathered on the skirt to give it some shape was paired with gold accessories.
Jenna Dewan was one of my favourites on this red carpet, as she dazzled me wearing a stunning Edition by Georges Chakra Fall 2009 grey ombre dress with sequin bodice.
Black t-bar Louboutin’s and a black clutch complete this gorgeous look.
Theron’s mini me, Katie Cassidy looked sophisticated and demure wearing an ivory Lela Rose Spring 2010 halter dress which had a metallic silver print and waist band.
At first I didn’t quite like Juilanne Moore’s Calvin Klein Spring 2010 ivory, grey and black tank dress at first, but it’s slowing growing on me.
It’s not BDOTW worthy, but she makes it work for her.
I do love the texture.
Diane Kruger opted for a cute short sleeved Balenciaga blue, white and black printed dress with draping around the hips to define the waist.
I like the shape of her dress and the polka dot tights don’t bother me, but I so would’ve referred her to wear the runway version.
There has been a lot of rumors that Renee Zellweger and Carolina Herrera have parted ways, but this cherry red strapless pencil dress screams Carolina Herrera to me.
I love the bow detail on the back, which is accented with an gold jewel detail.
Becki Newton looks divine wearing a ivory corseted Dolce & Gabbana strapless dress with a flirty chiffon skirt.
The two-tone crew-neck silk dress features a sheer chiffon yoke and asymmetrical metallic fringe and chiffon ruffles on the body.
I love the embellishments on this dress.
Cat Deeley normally always looks fabulous, but on this occasion she looks a hot mess.
Leave this look to those trashy D Listers Cat, you’re way better than this.
Whilst I don’t particularly have a problem with what Amber Rose to this event because she will never look anything but tacky to me, I did have a huge issue with her Ocotber Elle US magazine editorial which was more Maxim than Elle.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand officially showed that they were a couple at this event.
She glowed in the front row wearing a pink strapless gown which had a floral embroidery detail snaking around her waist.
Miu Miu
Kate Moss and boyf Jamie Hince were in the front row at Miu Miu.
On the penultimate day of Paris Fashion Week it was very hot, so I admire Kate for wearing a turtle neck leather dress which must have been extremely uncomfortable.
She paired her dress with Christian Louboutin Pigalle heels and a studded belt from her Kate Moss for Topshop collection.
Renee Zellwegger was at Miu Miu wearing a LBD.
If the rumours about her and Carolina Herrera no longer working together are true, Renee would have been shopping for a new BFF designer in Paris.
Giambattista Valli
The bold Leigh Lezark wore a Giambattista Valli peacock feather coat which makes her look like big bird from Sesame Street.
Elettra Rosselini’s look is more demure in a red dress with black heels.
We have yet another smile from Ginnifer Goodwin. Maybe it’s because she knows she looks so cute wearing a Brian Reyes Dolman polo blouse dress from the Spring 2009 collection.
I love the Clark Kent hairstyle.
The Boathouse, London
UK singer Little Boots wore a strapless Basso & Brooke Resort 2010 dress when she performed at the Boathouse in London this week.
This gorgeously colourful dress with fold and structured details, has a black background unlike many of the other pieces from this collection which have a white background giving the pieces a cloudy rainbow sky feel to them.
Planet Hollywood, New York
Alexis Bledel made an appearance at Planet Hollywood in New York to promote her new movie “Post Grad”.
Wear a black bra under a black dress. It’s simple mathematics.
H&M ankle boots were added to give her look a bit of an edge.
Post Grad Screening And Party, LA
She faired much better at the LA screening wearing a navy Sachin and Babi for Ankasa Resort 2010 draped dress embellished with black sequins.
“Late Show With David Letterman”, New York
We don’t see Renee Zellweger for months and now she’s popping up everywhere promoting her latest movie.
The actress arrive at Letterman wearing an electric blue strapless dress with silver Louboutin heels.
I’ll take a wild guess that it’s by Carolina Herrera.
I wanted to love this because of the vibrant colour, but those fold details on the skirt really don’t work for me, especially on the long shot.
Her frizzy hair doesn’t appeal either.
Charlotte Ronson and JCPenney Celebrate “I Heart Ronson” Line, New York
Mischa Barton continues to party despite her recent troubles.
The actress – haven’t called her that in a long while – wore a black tank top with a colourful floral Topshop skirt.
To add more colour into the mix she paired her look with a hot pink twisted rope necklace her favourite Alexander McQueen pink strapped open-toe booties.
Hilary Duff adds a tribal print scarf to add interest to her t-shirt and leggings look.
US Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour walked the red carpet last night as the host of “The September Issue” New York premiere.
The R.J. Cutler documentary chronicles the making of the fashion bible’s 2007 September edition, which remains its biggest issue to date.
After seeing the Prada Resort 2010 collection, I was intrigued to see which piece – if any – Anna would pick from this collection.
Anna has never been scared of bold prints, so it wasn’t a surprise that she picked this interesting piece which was modified to cover her shoulders.
Beige kitten heels, a dazzling necklace and trademark bob completed the look.
Sienna Miller – the cover star of the September 2007 issue this documentary chronicles – showed off how lengthy her toned legs are wearing a blue sky Thakoon Resort 2010 strapless mini dress.
I love the texture of this dress which is cleverly draped, twisted and gathered to create volume.
A silver Bottega Ventea clutch, large chandelier earrings and gold Jimmy Choo heels complete this look.
J’Adore.
Renee Zellweger’s shortened Carolina Herrera Resort 2010 orange draped brocade dress was the perfect choice to show off her best feature – her legs.
Some of you expressed how you’re a tad bored of the Renee/Herrera collabo, but I really love how each piece is tailor-made or modified to suit Renee’s style.
If it was the same silhouette or same colour I would be bored too, but the two of them give us something new every time.
Sexy strappy heels and her trademark pout complete the look.
I will forever love Carey Mulligan for wearing my favourite dress from the Thakoon Resort 2010 collection.
I adore this colourful dress, which drapes better on the runway. It’s like opening a packet of Starburst.
Actress Zoe Kazan combined two pieces from the Jason Wu Resort 2010 collection to create her own casual look.
I don’t like the uninspired heavy black heels with this summery look. The runway heels to the left would have been a better choice.
You may remember Emma Watson wore this same Jason Wu Resort look when traveling between shows whilst promoting “Harry Potter”.
Shortening seems to be the new black, as Hilary Rhoda like Renee, shorten her Rachel Roy Resort 2009 dress.
Her floral dress was pair with Manolo Blahhnik white and black stitched heels.
Designers Oscar de la Renta and Carolina Herrera arrived together.
He wore a beige suit, whilst she looked radiant wearing an orange and white floral skirt from her Resort 2010 collection, with a crisp white shirt which is very much her trademark look.
Designer Tory Burch decided against wearing a piece from her own collection opting for this gorgeous purple Narciso Rodriguez silk dress from the 2009 Pre-Fall collection.
The cap sleeve dress has a wide self-tie belt that wraps around dress, which can create Rodriguez’ signature criss cross detail.
I love the dress and the strappy heels, but I really dislike her pink feathery bag. What a way to ruin a look.
Designer Cynthia Rowley opted for a vibrant blue shortened dress from her Fall 2009 collection.
Georgina Chapman opted for a silver long sleeved tunic dress with sprinkles of gold embellishments, which shimmered as she walked the red carpet.
Her dress had a matching silver roped tied the waist. Her look was complete with grey Christian Louboutin kitten heels and a matching clutch.
Vera Wang opted for a simple grey tank which she punched up with a trademark bejeweled necklace.
I particularly love her Resort 2010 asymmetrical layered skirt, which she wore with Prada Spring 2009 snake-skin heels.
Alexa Chung dress has the floaty ethereal feel of the Calvin Klein Resort 2010 collection, which I’ll guess is actually a vintage dress.
It appears Alexa still hasn’t washed her hair from the last time she stepped onto the red carpet for the “Inglourious Basterds” New York Screening earlier this week.
TRESemme and some lukewarm water. Don’t be afraid to introduce them to your hair Miss Chung.
Bee Shaffer’s lilac belted dress is divine, both in colour and style.
It shows off her legs and accentuates her curvy figure.
Designer Donna Karan and singer Cassie arrived wearing similar plunging black jumpsuits.
Donna opted for gladiator flats with her look, whilst Cassie wore platform boots.
“The September Issue” hits theaters in New York on August 28, and select cities on September 11.
Renee Zellweger was inducted into the Hall of Fame on ‘Vanity Fair’s 70th Annual International Best-Dressed List’, which I think was well deserved.
I love Renee. She always wears Carolina Herrera, yet it never becomes boring or stale mostly because the dresses are modified to suit the actress chic style.
She once went a whole year only wearing strapless dresses, but she mixes things up a lot more now.
On Saturday she attended a special screening of her new movie “My One and Only”, attended by Marc Jacobs, Jon Bon Jovi, and Tory Burch.
Renee looked radiant wearing a Carolina Herrera Resort 2010 halter dress, with a silver floral print and a silver sash on the waist.
The dress of course has been modified from the runway, as we’ve come to expect.
Her dress was paired with silver strappy sandals.
Yesterday Renee started off her day with an appearance on ‘Good Morning America’.
The surprised thing here is not the large orange Hermes Birkin – because orange was one of the main colours used in the Carolina Herrera Resort 2010 collection – the surprise is that her grey pencil dress with a tie detail on the shoulder was not modified. It’s straight off-the-rack. *shock*
Renee looked relaxed teaming her dress aviator sunglasses and nude heels.
Despite being romantically linked to Bradley Cooper, Renee arriving solo for the special screening of her movie in New York last night.
Wearing a figure-hugging off-the-shoulder Carolina Herrera dress with a jewel waistband, Renee looked every inch a Hollywood star on the red carpet.
I love the dark taupe colour of her dress paired with her nude heels from earlier in the day. For me she’s head-to-toe perfection.
“My One and Only” Friday, August 21.
