You would be forgiven if men’s shirts was the first thing that came to mind when you think of Thomas Pink.

They offer a lot more than men’s shirts.

The womenswear section at Thomas Pink’s inviting Spring 2010 press day is were we headed yesterday, to check out what was on offer.

The Spring 2010 collection is divided into four themed groups, each accompanied by a succinct title.

Firstly The White Collection.

As a wardrobe staple the white shirt is a necessity and here Thomas Pink have created pieces with thought. With luxurious fabrics like cotton silk and details such as The White Collection printed on the inside of each collar, you are sure to feel confident in one of these bright white shirts.

The Summer Brights look adds a wash of exactly that; bold hues inspired by David Hockney’s ‘The Splash.’

For those who find it as warming as I do to inject a bit of colour sometimes - the keen yellow or coral will hit the spot.

I’m one of those people who feels very indifferent to Lady GaGa, but from your comments there’s a strong love/hate divide.

Lucas alerted me to Lady GaGa’s new video “Bad Romance”, and I’ll admit I was in a trance watching her video.

She’s electrifying, energetic and totally captivating.

I love the close up beauty shots of her which allow me to see that under all those crazy costumes, hats and make-up lies a pretty girl.

In the few shots we see of GaGa actually clothed, she rockin 2 pieces from Alexander McQueen’s Spring 2010 collection.

In the opening sequence she dons a long sleeved gold metallic mini dress with futuristic shades.

At the 3.30 mark in the video, GaGa bravely walks in those staggering armadillo heels whilst wearing a beaded turtle neck dress paired with the runway pants.

From the way she’s walking it looks like you have to trot like a show pony to be actually able to walk in these heels.

At another point in the video GaGa is seen dancing around in Agent Provocateurs “Love” demi bra and panties teamed with a menacing pair of black Alexander McQueen Spring 2010 dragon heels.

She also wears these heels in white paired with matching white underwear.

“Bad Romance” is more like a fashion video than a music video.

I think this maybe the only chance we get to see the more adventurous pieces from the runway, unless they are in editorials.

I hope I’m wrong.

Han Ye-Seul looks exquisite wearing a red Valentino gown with a bow accent on the side.

Her pose and smile tell me she LOVES her gown.

We’ve seen this stunning creating a few times on Shu Qi and a shorten version on Tamara Mellon.

Yoon-A opted for a sassy 3.1 Phillip Lim for such a formal event, but she looks so adorable all is forgiven.

Her dress is paired with Christian Louboutin open-toe heels, whilst carrying an interesting clutch.

Michelle Williams wowed us wearing this dress in white a few months ago.

Park Bo-Young is quite pale, so this white rise and fall hemmed gown shouldn’t work, but I LOVE it on her.

The gentle ruffles are so feminine they melt my cold heart.

Her fur accented heels are very Frederick’s of Hollywood, but I do like her silver clutch.

Kim Min-Sun has a body and a gown to die for.

I love the rich purple colour and the crystals that cover her sweetheart neckline gown.

She’s simply breath-taking.

Sienna Miller attended a screening of “The Mysteries of Pittsburgh” in New York City back in April wearing a Marios Schwab red dress.

The dress was massively modified from the runway to exclude the crystal-embellishments in the fold-detailed on the bodice and skirt.

Sienna wore her hair in a messy updo pairing her dress with black tights, black peep-toes and red lippie to match her dress.

On Sunday night Cheryl Cole appeared on the “X Factor” wearing the same dress with the sparkling crystals.

She kept her legs bare and added leg-lengthening Brian Atwood platforms.

As much as I didn’t like Cheryl’s hair, I much prefer her embellished dress as it had a bit more pizazz about it so she wins for me.

Out & About, New York

Rihanna may have worn her Stéphane Rolland Spring 2009 Couture gown on the red carpet at the 2009 Glamour Women of the Year Awards, but inside she did a quick change into this stunning Jasmine di Milo Spring 2010 gown.

The ombre silk tulle gown is divine with it’s sexy thigh-high split and gathered details on the hips.

Many of you didn’t think she could carry off the previous gown, but think she rocked both.

Royal Rajasthan Gala, London

There was a time when I had nothing nice to say about Sigourney Weaver, but she continues to impress.

From her previous Donna Karan gown, to this stunning ruby Naeem Khan Fall 2009 draped satin one- shoulder gown with jeweled trim bodice which I simply adore.

At present she can currently do no wrong.

“A Magical Evening” Gala, New York

I’m still catching my breathe from looking at the stunning Selita Ebanks on this red carpet.

She looks like an angel wearing a white one-shouldered J.Mendel Pre-Fall 2009 gown, which has had its second outing on the red carpet.

BDOTW contender for sure.

Jane Krakowski chose a one shouldered grey embroidered Christian Cota Fall 2009 dress.

I like the dress, especially the embroidered detail, but I’m not sure it quite works on Jane.

She’s quite broad shouldered so this look isn’t particularly flattering.

Montblanc 9th Annual 24 Hr Plays on Broadway After Party, New York

Emmy Rossum is wearing a lot of black lately, but her black jacquard J. Mendel Fall 2009 sleeveless dress which has been modified from the runway is stunning.

She pairs her dress with t-bar heels, I just wish she also wore the runway belt.

“Exposed: 10 Years In Hollywood Book Launch Party”, LA

This isn’t my favourite look on Jessica Alba by any means.

She doesn’t breathe any life into her Narciso Rodriguez Resort 2010 black and white dress which she pairs with Christian Louboutin Lady Page pumps.

MTV’s “It’s On With Alexa Chung”, New York

Rihanna strikes a pose at the MTV Studios after her interview on Alexa Chung’s show, which you can watch by here

I thought it was quite appropriate that Rihanna was seeing Alexa wearing ankle boots, as Alexa is the Queen of ankle boots.

Rihanna paired her boots with an Alexander McQueen asymmetric-stripe sweater dress which we’ve seen on Cheryl Cole.

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner were in Paris today for a photocall to promote “The Twilight Saga: New Moon”.

We can be thankful that Kristen is not wearing blazer, and is wearing a colour other than black but if only Kristen’s smile was a pretty as her strapless J.Mendel Spring 2010 dress.

She always makes me feel like she has been wrestled into a dress, when we all know she would be more comfortable in jeans and converse sneakers.

Everything about her look is good from asymmetrical draping on her dress, to her matching Sergio Rossi Cachet pumps, but the best we get from her is a Posh pout.

With regards to everything looking good, I’m sure you know I’m not including the -forced upon her- hair ‘do.

Regular readers will know that I’m all about the drama.

The more dramatic the dress, the more I fall in love which is why I’m salivating over Rihanna’s Stéphane Rolland Spring 2009 Couture gown.

I expected Rihanna to walk red carpet wearing a Balmain Spring 2010 dress with cut-out details in the hips, so this was a very pleasant surprise.

The white Stéphane Rolland mermaid shaped gown had a pleated detail on the front which swirled around the bodice, before exploding all over the skirt.

This will be a love it or hate it dress. What say you?

Before I fell for Cate Blanchett, it was all about Catherine Zeta Jones. She was my first girl crush.

I had such admiration for her as she held her own on the red carpet amongst the Hollywood major players.

We haven’t seen much of her lately, but walking the red carpet at this event last night she proved that she hasn’t lost any of her sparkle.

CJZ looked outstanding wearing a navy blue Gustavo Cadile’s Resort 2010 lurex gown.

I loved cut, it flatters her so well. I also love how the gown shimmers.

Welcome back Mrs Jones-Douglas, we missed you.

From one ageless beauty to another.

Iman - as usual - looked OUT-Friggin-Standing.

It’s not easy to follow the gorgeous Karlie Kloss because she totally owns everything she wears on the runway.

But when you’re Iman, that doesn’t matter.

The uber model walked the red carpet wearing a pink Jason Wu Spring 2010 feathered confection that is totally delightful.

I love the neon green waistband and her matchy matchy runway platform heels.

She totally stands out as one of the best on this red carpet.

Never take a day of Iman….I BEG you.

Some of you have expressed your confusion as to why Kerry Washington receives so much praise for her red carpet choices.

Come on guys, looks at how amazing she looks wearing this Fendi Spring 2010 blush pink lace floor-length dress.

She looks simply elegant, the colour complements her skin-tone, she accessorized well with silver stunning jewels and a Christian Louboutin snake skin print clutch.

Her look is totally effortless.

What’s not to love?

The Stella McCartney Resort 2010 collection still proves to be the most worn collection by celebrities this year.

Liya Kebede, joins Stella McCartney and Jessica Simpson who have both worn this coat/dress.

It’s not just celebrities who have fallen for Stella’s Resort collection.

Glamour magazine’s Editor-in-Chief Cindi Leive walked the red carpet with SVP & Publishing Director Bill Wackermann wearing the same Resort 2010 dress we’ve seen on Frieda Pinto.

It was no surprise that Stella McCartney was honoured at this event.

The designer was of course wearing self designed pieces which all worked well together.

Stella tends to wear a lot of black, so this pop of colour is really refreshing.

Serena Williams is getting the hand of this red carpet thing as she is radiant at this event wearing a red asymmetrical Pamella Roland gown.

I think she has looked her best yet after her stunning Gucci look a few weeks ago.

Yes she looks muscular, but there’s nothing she can do about that.

I would love to say I have finally embraced Katharine McPhee’s platinum blonde ‘do, but I continue to struggle with it.

Hair aside, I totally in love with her BODYAMR peacock blue jersey gown.

The gown shows off her figure, whilst the black patent leather trim and open back shows off Katharine’s sexy side.

The singer/actress accessorized with a black leather Perrin Paris 1893 Riva Pochette oversize clutch.

Maria Shriver looked fab wearing a black lace strapless Monique Lhuillier gown.

Amy Poehler glittered in a gold Stella McCartney cocktail dress.
