Princess Azemah attended the “The Noble Gift Gala” hosted by Eva Longoria this weekend.

It seems like it was a very fashionable weekend for royals.

Queen Rania of Jordan wore Lanvin, and here we have Princess Azemah wearing Gucci.

The Princess slightly modified her black Gucci Spring 2010 gown by dialing down the sexiness, taking it from 100% to 60% by covering the cut-outs on the waist, but keeping them on the yoke.

If I could afford to purchase one of these gowns I would go for Princess Azemah’s modified version. It sexy, without being too obvious like the runway version.

I also like the way the harness detail on the bodice stands out more on Princess Azemah gown.

Jennifer Lopez arrived at the 2010 Vanity Fair party with her husband Marc Anthony.

She went from the extreme hip detail in her Armani Prive Oscars gown, to an extreme shoulder detail in this black Gucci gown.

That’s why I love Jennifer. She’s all about brining the drama.

Her black silk jersey belted drape Gucci gown with a cut-out detail was accented with a black ostrich feather detail on her shoulder.

She paired her dress with a Ferragamo clutch.

Han Chae Young attended the “Influence” press conference in Seoul, South Korea this week.

The beautiful actress wore an interesting Gucci Spring 2010 dress paired with silver heels.

Her stunning grey dress is detailed with silver beaded embroidery and a lace-up harness for dramatic effect.

Many of you have stated that looks on Asian red carpet tend to copy the runway head-to-toe. Well Han opted for a different pair of heels.

I’m not crazy about her choice, so I would’ve preferred a head-to-toe runway look on this occasion.

I throughly enjoyed the Gucci Fall 2010 presentation. I’ll go a far as to say it was Frida Giannini best Gucci collection to-date.

I loved the sensual browns, creams and beige pieces which opened the show, before what felt like the second part of the presentation were the mood soften and the more glamorous pieces were presented.

The collection focused on timeless pieces like wool coats and the perfect pants which were narrow and exquisitely tailored.

These pants were paired with A-line coats, smart blazers and fur jackets.

We are used to many mini dresses from Frida, but on this occasion she ditched ultra short minis opting for a slightly longer length with suede high boots to complete the look.

These dresses were uncomplicated with some backless to add a touch of sex appeal to the look.

Feathers were adorned on many of the pieces in the second part of the collection as worn by Chanel, Freja and the gorgeous Anja.

Ashley Greene had a busy time in Milan seated at the front row of Giorgio Armani, Gucci and Dolce & Gabbana.

Without many A Listers in Milan, it was very much Ashley’s chance to shine.

I first spotted her at the Giorgio Armani Fall 2010 presentation.

With her hair loosely pulled back the “Twilight” actress wore a purple and pink strapped Giorgio Armani Resort 2010 loose fitting dress.

I loved her pink accessories with this look.

At Gucci she also opted for a Resort 2010 dress, which she paired with a Gucci bamboo handle bag.

Her front row look at Dolce & Gabbana was my least favourite.

I don’t think the long sleeve floral print chiffon dress suited her, especially paired with those Dolce & Gabbana lace mesh peep toe booties.

The other sophisticated looks suited her style better imo.

Which look do you favour?

This weekend at Bryant Park, the final contestant of Project Runway presented their collections to Heidi Klum, Nina Garcia and Michael Kors.

The guest judge this year is Faith Hill who I think would’ve been better suited to judge ‘American Idol’.

Anyway she took her place alongside Heidi Klum who looked stunning in a cold-shouldered Gucci Spring 2010 ikat print dress, with black strappy details.

Faith was not to be out done in the style stakes, the country singer opted for an all black Marchesa Fall 2010 look consisting of a sculpted black jacket paired with narrow tuxedo pants.

You may remember that Katharine McPhee has sported this very same look when she performed on “The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien”.
