As promised here is Uma Thurman who looked stunning presenting an award at the 2010 BAFTAs last night.

I’m sure you will agree her custom-made light gold lace Burberry gown was one of, if not the best dress of the night.

What a shame that podium is in the way, and that she didn’t walk the red carpet.

Goddess.

Nina Ricci is known for it’s clothes – and heels after the Fall 2009 collection – but they also make stunning bags.

The Nina Ricci “Ondine” bag collection could be the next line of ‘It’ bags, as many celebs have been seen toting the bags around in recent weeks.

Whilst we were all dazzled by Leighton Meester’s Louis Vuitton dress and red Brian Atwood shoes at the Teen Choice Awards, we didn’t notice her Nina Ricci black python “Ondine” clutch.

Uma Thurman was spotted in Paris shopping with her fiancé Arpad Busson carrying a Nina Ricci bag, and of course RiRi started the celebrity love of this collection carrying the Nina Ricci Pony Bag.

The “Ondine” collection includes 4 models: The Tote, the Hobo, the Shoulder Bag and the Clutch.

All of which are available in a several fabrics (dyed lamb, pony, alligator and calf) and colours (black, lilac, grape, grey, blueberry and bordeaux), but each bag has a distinctive horseshoe-shaped ribbon detail.

Barney’s currently have 6 styles online in black in various sizes, but you can view the full collection at NinaRicci.com.

Dinner In Honor Of Nelson Mandela’s 90th Birthday, London

A dashing Will Smith arrived with his wife Jada Pinnkett-Smith, who was wearing a olive Monique Lhuillier Fall 2008 sheath dress, which had peacock feathers around the neckline.

Denzel Washington arrived looking very dapper in his black suit, shirt and tie combo, with his wife, Pauletta Pearson who was wearing a black asymmetric top and a Prada Resort 2008 pouffy skirt.

Forest Whitaker and his wife Keisha arrived both wearing navy. She was wearing a satin Lanvin Fall 2007 dress, with a stunning pair of embellished sandals.

Naomi Campbell brought not only her new boyfriend, but the high-end glamour to this event wearing a sexy black chiffon gown.

Oprah Winfrey made a rare visit to London wearing a black and white ensemble. The chat-show host was clever enough to bring a clutch that doubled up as a fan, to keep her cool, as London was very warm yesterday.

Katherine Jenkins arrived wearing a blush pink Christian Dior by John Galliano strapless gown with fold details.

I have a thing about strapless gown being worn with the hair up and a bare neck, as I believe it makes you look more statuesque, so I am not loving Katherine in this gown. I much prefer it on the first time it was worn by a celebrity.

Kim Cattrall wore a Versace toga dress.

I am not crazy about the colour on her, and I think a belt may have made a dramatic difference.

With minimal make-up and a strapless pink Missoni gown accentuated with a gold belt, Leona Lewis is, as always, simply beautiful, and it’s effortless.

Heidi Range (L), Amelle Berrabah and Keisha Buchanan of SugaBabes arrived in various gown.

Heidi opted for a coral Jenny Packham gown, which has blue accents, which was worn by Tyra Banks this year.

Amelle wore a stunning metallic haltered gown with silver accents, but ruined her look with that bright red lipstick and blusher.

Keisha amped up the glam wearing a stunning belted orange gown.

Lewis Hamilton arrived with his Pussycat Doll girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger, who decided this event was a great place to show off her bra.

Note to Nicole: You are dining in with Nelson Mandela, not getting chicken wings at Hooters my dear.

I am more than disappointed that Uma Thurman is not playing the red carpet game. What is the point in taking the time to dress nice if you are not going to show it off?

It was a warm day in London, take off the trench.

“The Wackness” Screening, New York

Mary-Kate Olsen has come out of hiding. It has been a while since we saw the boho chick on the red carpet, and she did not disappoint from the ankles up.

Mary-Kate wore a beautiful white vintage Lanvin maxi dress with a navy waist belt, but opted to wear orange Sonia Rykiel shoes with it, which totally ruined the look for me.

“The Wackness” After Party, New York

This floral dress is not really working for me either, as it appears a little too big and her posture is slightly hunched over.

Selita Ebanks decided to mix it up a little by wearing a tuxedo jacket with an ultra mini skirt.

I hope her hair is just pulled back, as it looks like she may have gone for the chop.

Vogue España Magazine 20th Anniversary Party, Madrid

Claudia Schiffer wore a stunning white and grey sequined Chanel Spring 2008 gown that had been modified from the runway.

The model has been out and about many times this week, and has looked nothing short of flawless. As you would expect.

Monica Cruz wore a sexy navy haltered dress and gave us that sexy latin look that she does so well.

Actress Paz Vega opted for a black strapless Roberto Cavalli Pre-Fall 2008 gown, which has a beautiful floral detail on the hem.

For Esther Canadas it was all about the back of her Roberto Cavalli dress, as she constantly posed with her back to the paparazzi.

The model arrived with designer Robert “I am the party” Cavalli.

Jade Jagger arrived in a short black and gold strapless mini from her own Jezebel collection.

Why borrow when you can wear your own?

BILD OSGAR Award, Germany

Naomi Campbell, another supermodel out and about a lot this week, showed her pure side in this white haltered gown with crystal detail by Dolce & Gabbana.

July 2008 Vogue UK cover girl Uma Thurman, first wore this steel blue ruched silk chiffon Zac Posen Spring 2007 halter-neck mermaid gown to the CFDA Awards over a year ago.

The statuesque actress wore gold drop earrings, and as she showed off her curves in this dress which had a black ruched hem.

Chenbot aka The Early Show news anchor Julie Chen, surprised a lot of people, maybe even herself, when she arrived at the 2008 Tony Awards looking drop dead gorgeous in the same Zac Posen dress.

Julie opted for the very feminine pink version of the dress that appeared on the runway, which she accessorized with silver jewelery and a silver clutch.

I loved Julie so much in this dress, that Uma in the same dress did not even immediately spring to mind. I much prefer the colour of Julie’s dress, as I did not like the black hem on Uma’s.

Julie easily wins this for me.

A huge thanks to Fashion Ivy, for noticing this comparison.

MTV TRL, New York

Kristen Bell is right on trend with this cute haltered floral Etro Spring 2008 dress.

City’s Harvest’s 14th Annual Practical Magic Ball, New York

Melissa George looks uber sexy in her one-shouldered LBD.

“The Life Before Her Eyes” Premiere, New York

Evan Rachel Wood wore this black taffeta Oscar de la Renta Pre-Fall 2008 belted dress, which would have perfect if not for the asymmetric ruffled piece of material, which is dominating the dress.

I do love her Giambattista Valli Fall 2008 platform heels though.

Eva Amurri turns up the glamour in this sexy strapless mini dress.

For me this white dress just washes Emmy Rossum out.

Uma Thurman looks very laid back in this vintage dress, and not at all like she is going to a premiere.

Pure perfection by Dita Von Teese wearing a pink embellished Christian Lacroix Fall 2007 Couture gown with black accents.

Eva Herzigova is stunning in this virginal white Versace one shouldered gown.

I would not choose this colour for myself, but it does seem to work for Claudia Schiffer.

Valentino Front Row

Valentino has been working in the fashion industry for 45 years, produced 90 collections and this Valentino Spring 2008 dress is the best Blake Lively could find in his collection?

Shocking.

Eva Larue strikes a pose in Valentino.

Eva Herzigova opts for a white satin bowed dress from Valentino’s Spring 2008 collection, and a black jacket from the Valentino Fall 2007 Couture collection.

Claudia Schiffer opts to just look hideous in this get up.

Uma Thurman looks striking as ever. Even in her tuxedo jacket.

Jean Paul Gaultier Front Row

Dita Von Teese makes this tartan Jean Paul Gaultier Fall 2007 trench coat look absolutely divine.

This Jean Paul Gaultier Fall 2007 dress is a much better effort from Blake Lively.

Eva La Rue also wore this ensemble to the Elie Saab show. Tutu.

Elie Saab Front Row

I love it when Dita Von Teese wears colour as it so dramatic against her skin.

Some would say red all over from her lips to her finger tips is too much, but I love it.

Christian Lacroix Front Row

The porcelain princess, Dita Von Teese caps off Haute Couture Fashion Week in style, a wearing sexy black ensemble.

Givenchy Front Row

Natalia Vodianova looks way too pale in this black one shouldered Givenchy Fall 2007 dress.

This grey strapless YSL Spring 2008 dress, does not quite work for Julianne Moore the way it did for Kate Moss in the YSL advertising campaign.

Diane Kruger wore a white Balmain Spring 2008 dress with grey Christian Dior shoes.

Michelle Yeoh is stunning in baby blue.
