“A Steady Rain” Broadway Opening Night, New York

What does Ellen Barkin, Nicole Kidman and Kyra Sedgwick have in common?

They all love wearing L’Wren Scott’s figure-hugging dresses.

Nicole Kidman has actually worn this black and white trimmed L’Wren Scott Headmistress dress.

Nicole opted for red peep-toes, but Ellen wore t-bar patent Christian Louboutin’s to complete her look.

Hair Magazine Awards, London

UK TV and Radio presenter Lauren Laverne wore a Jonathan Saunders Fall 2009 LBD, which had a wet-look bodice wrapped around stunning embellishments.

I love the her curly cropped bob and her flawless make-up.

Even though I personally don’t like tights, this head-to-toe look really works well for her.

The Richard Nicoll Fall 2009 runway fashion-forward piece has been soften to a pink & nude silk slip dress on Donna Air.

She added grey sandals and a silver statement necklace to complete her look.

Tamsin Egerton looks stunning wearing an Alexander Wang one-sleeved jersey ruched dress, which just goes to prove that Wang’s clothes are desired on both sides of the Atlantic.

It’s getting cooler temperature-wise in London, but thankfully Tamsin didn’t opt for tights.

She instead showed-off her enviable legs wearing gold peep-toes.

VV Brown often wears edgy, unknown designers or a lot of vintage pieces, but on this occasion I can spot an embellished Topshop jacket.

The look is paired with a vintage faux-fur hat, black pants and nude ballet pumps.

Jenny Frost’s dress says one thing, “I want to attention.”

I may have liked the dress if it had fit better.  It just a piece of material hanging from her paired with a black belt.

“UNITE Unveiled: Gen Art’s Fresh Faces In Fashion”, LA

‘The Hills’ star Kristen Cavallari looked lovely wearing a lacy nude top with a black leather skirt and nude patent Brian Atwood heels.

I’m very impressed that her flesh coloured bra isn’t immediately noticeable.

If this was Heidi Montag she would’ve won a bright pink bra just to draw attention to herself.

“Rock A Little, Feed A Lot” Benefit Concert, LA

Marcia Cross looked surprisingly raunchy in her Dsquared² embellished top, with James Jean’s “Twiggy” legging jeans.

It’s hard to believe Isla Fisher is a mother of one, because looks so young.

She kept her look super casual wearing a graphic print tee, short black leather skirt and zipper gladiator sandals.

Jenna Dewan opted for a H&M multi-coloured striped dress, paired with black leggings and navy pumps.

02 X Awards 2009, London

Yasmin Le Bon wore a berry velvet suit from her YLB for Wallis collection, paired with a black blouse.

Make-up free but still gorgeous.

The Scene Record Release Party, LA

Selena Gomez is the epitome of chic at her album launch party wearing nude silk top, a chocolate sequin mini skirt and nude patent heels.

The side-parted pony tail gives this look a youthful feel which has been missing from previous looks.

Celebrities designing is all the rage. We’ve had the good: Victoria Beckham and Kate Moss.

The bad: Lauren Conrad and the ugly Heidiwood by Heidi Montag.

Whitney Eve by Whitney Port is yet to find a category after only debuting 2 weeks ago during New York Fashion Week.

Yasmin Le Bon has teamed up with Wallis to design her own collection called YLB For Wallis.

It made it’s debut 2 weeks ago, and already it’s in the good category for me as Yasmin has been the perfect brand ambassador wearing several pieces from the collection at high profile events - something Whitney Port is yet to do.

At the Herve Leger launch party on Thursday evening Yasmin wore the peradot pleat neck silk mini dress (£80) and bottle green kid fur cape (£90).

On Saturday Yasmin watched the Kinder Aggugini show during London Fashion week wearing the ink velvet suit jacket (£70) and black blouse (£65).

And on Sunday evening Yasmin partied at the Topshop dinner wearing the grey maxi dress (£65).

Who knew fashion this fabulous could be so affordable.

You can view the whole collection which includes dresses, pants, blouses, blazers and stunning jewelry at YLB For Wallis.

Agyness Deyn seems less annoying lately, mostly because she isn’t shoved in my face 24/7.

The model wore a gunmetal grey Giles Fall 2009 ultra mini dress, on a very mild evening in London, whilst carrying a blue House of Holland bag in the shape of a Monopoly house.

The super, who is only 5ft 8in, looks super-sized wearing a pair of black and white Christian Louboutin Differa sandals.

The berry shade of lippie doesn’t work for me, but was the right choice for her overall look, unlike her bubble gum pink nails.

Christopher Kane’s designs are so unique and so well structured, I’m surprised we don’t see more of his pieces on the red carpet.

Yasmin le Bon wore a nude Christopher Kane high neckline dress from his Spring 2009 collection, which is detailed with horizontal and vertical black leather scallops covering the dress.

The exquisite detail of this show-piece makes a very strong style statement, and I’m glad Yasmin pulls this of so effortlessly.

A fabulous dress, needs fabulous heels, and Yasmin doesn’t disappoint in that department either, wearing a stunning pair of Christian Dior Spring 2009 heels.

I don’t tend to find socialites very interesting, but I love Poppy Delevigne’s Chanel Spring 2009 gown.

She’s totally breath-taking, as she wears the gown which just an elegant grace, that she totally puts the model in the shade.

I much prefer the gown, without the brooch chain detail.

Erin O’Connor was a regal as ever, wearing black Temperley London Fall 2009 gown, with gold embroidered details.  She opted out of wearing the sari, which was presented on the runway.

Stella McCartney is so ahead of the game, I think it’s safe to assume that this glorious floral confection, with bold shoulders, and sculptural hips will be part of her Spring 2010 collection

Her shoes are also pretty spectacular, but they look like they’d pinch after a while.

Regardless, they are on my wish list. I like a good challenge.

I normally love what Beth wears, but this string vest look, I can’t get on board with.

Beth joins a long list of stars who have fallen for the ever so lust worthy Louis Vuitton Spicy heels.

All I can say about Alexa Chung is, I like her pink Chanel bag. The rest is to be expected, especially her two-tone hair.

Michael Kors invited many supermodels to the launch party of his new Bond Street Flagship London store, whilst they all looked fabulous in his clothes.

Can you believe Yasmin le Bon is old enough to have such a 19 year old daughter?

They look more like sisters.

Amber Le Bon is currently the face of lingerie brand Myla. She towered over her supermodel mother wearing a turquoise mini dress, under a grey oversized blazer. Her accessories don’t quite work for me, but she looks gorgeous all the same.

Yasmin on the other hand was head-to-toe perfection. She sparkled in her gorgeous Caribbean blue Michael Kors skirt, black belted top, yellow clutch and black point pumps.

Yasmin’s fellow supermodels were there.

Astrid Munoz had an almost identical look to Yasmin, as she wore the same skirt Michael Kors skirt, but in a coral colour, and she wore a black sleeveless top which she wore with a red belt.

Eva Herzigova opted for black and gold, head to toe. What really stood out were her gold sequined pants. A black Jimmy Choo clutch complete the look.

Erin O’Connor looks très chic in her black dress covered in gold paillettes. She wore her dress with leggings and an orange clutch.

At Lanvin’s London boutique opening party, I am glad these two ladies opted for the most vibrant pieces.

Yasmin le Bon wore a three-tone blue one-shouldered Lanvin Spring 2009 dress.

She thankfully kept her accessories to a minimum, because this dress has a beautiful bouquet of floral embellishments that speak for themselves.

I love pink embellishments on the skirt, as they really pop against the navy blue. Her nude satin pumps completed the look.


Model Anouck Lepère wore a stunning nude Lanvin Spring 2009 strapless dress, which had glittering leopard print.

I like that Anouck wore her dress with a belt, to give her dress more shape, and her red double t-bar pumps were the perfect finishing touch.

Model of the Year winner, Jourdan Dunn strikes a pose wearing a gorgeous Stella McCartney white strapless mini dress, with embroidered detail on the bodice. She wore her dress with thick black tights and studded heels.

The model beat Agyness Deyn and Lily Donaldson to this deserved title.

Alexa Chung teamed her boho Future Classics Spring 2009 babydoll with ankle boots, a skinny scarf and a Mulberry for Giles black patent clutch.

Alexa looks fab in this “I just threw it on” look.

Erin O’Connor, as you would expect, is beautifully dramatic wearing a black Vivienne Westwood taffeta gown, with at snake-skin tuxedo jacket from Topshop.

She completed her look with a black hat.

Oh how very British.

Pixie Geldof wore a grey woolly mammoth Mulberry Fall 2008 jacket over her black tuxedo jacket, chain-mail top and black leggings.

I really like this look, as it is very much her own, and she is not trying to be anyone else.

Rosamund Pike’s velvet blue cropped jacket really brings life to her navy Roksanda Ilincic dress with a rosette detail.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor teams her Chanel purse with a black Topshop dress, white tights and Mary Janes.

The singer is doing so well to conceal her baby bump.

Twiggy arrived on the red carpet with her daughter Laura.

The model icon wore a Stella McCartney Pre-Fall 2008 sequined dress, with purple tights and a black tuxedo jacket.

We have seen Twiggy wear this dress many times before, but when she looks this great in it, who cares?

Yasmin Le Bon drapes a - hopefully faux fur - jacket over her shoulder, so we can see her burnt orange Halston Fall 2008 halter gown.

Emilia Fox as always is chic perfection, wearing a black dress with a black overlay and lace details on the hem.

I am not diggin’ Tamara Mellon’s bangs, but I do love her sequined coat, which she wears over her LBD. Her accessories are of course Jimmy Choo.

Is there a man fashion designer L’Wren Scott does not tower over? At 6ft 4in, and more in heels. I guess not.

The chic designer of course wore her own designs, opting for a body-contouring Fall 2008 metallic and lace dress, with a feathered hat to match.

Designer of the Year Luella Bartley, wore a purple cropped blazer and an asymmetric skirt with lace details from her own Spring 2009 collection.

TV presenter Mariella Frostrup wore this beautiful dark purple L’Wren Scott Fall 2008 shift dress with a embellished necklace.

She complimented her dress with gold peep-toes.

Claudia Schiffer wore a Forest green RM by Roland Mouret Anvers dress, with black pumps.

If it weren’t for the hat, I would not have recognised Roisin Murphy, who is posing here with Accessory Designer of the Year winner Rupert Sanderson.

That is because the singer usually wears something so cutting edge and loud, you can’t help but admire her.

This for Roisin is safe, and tame.

Model Jade Parfitt wears one of my favourite dresses from the Giles Fall 2008 collection. The dress was presented in black, but I much prefer this red version.

I just wish she had worn different shoes though.

Katie Grand, former editor of the hugely influential Pop magazine arrived with Giles Deacon wearing his Giles Spring 2009 space age silver front zipped pants, with a black top and a boa, which was also presented with most of the pieces from Giles Spring 2009 collection.

She is carrying the Prada sequin ombre clutch that is currently top of my wish list.
