Lily James In Burberry – 2018 Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year Awards

Lily James In Burberry - 2018 Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year Awards

Like Jenna Coleman, Lily James opted for a British-based designer for the 2018 Harper’s Bazaar Women Of The Year Awards held at Claridge’s Hotel on Tuesday (October 30) in London.

The actress wore a Riccardo Tisci for Burberry Spring 2019 two piece look, which had me thinking at first that this was Dolce & Gabbana.

I think it’s the polka dots and lace combo that put me on that track.

Do I love this look?

No, it feels disjointed to me. Great pieces, but nothing gels well. I mean, tights and a cami top?

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex In Brandon Maxwell & Burberry – Pillars Charity Event

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex In Brandon Maxwell & Burberry - Pillars Charity Event

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex joined Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern this afternoon (October 30) at Pillars, a charity operating across New Zealand that supports children who have a parent in prison.

You’ll be forgiven if you think this is a re-run of her fitted dress and trench coat arrival look, but on this occasion she wore another dress from one of her favourite designers; Brandon Maxwell.

The custom look, which comes in a soft nude hue, was styled with Burberry ‘Maythorne’ Mulberry coat with nude Stuart Weitzman ‘Legend’ pumps, which, thanks to Meghan, are sold-out worldwide.

While I was very vocal about her love for beige on beige in the early days, but I have to say this is one of the smartest and well put together looks of this royal tour.

I’m tempted to say she was missing something – a bag perhaps – but I don’t want to ruin this perfect moment.

Carey Mulligan In Burberry – SAG-AFTRA Foundation Conversations: ‘Wildlife’

Carey Mulligan In Burberry - SAG-AFTRA Foundation Conversations: 'Wildlife'

Carey Mulligan attended the SAG-AFTRA Foundation Conversations: ‘Wildlife’ event on Monday (October 1) in New York City, following the premiere.

Perhaps Riccardo Tisci’s first collection was hastily underestimated by the doubters who wanted more from the designer, as his Spring 2019 collection is swiftly becoming a hit with celebrities.

First M.I.A, then Rihanna and now Carey.

Frankly, what’s not to love about this silk printed shirt and leather trousers combo?

I especially love the trousers.

They are perhaps the one piece that hints at designers love for rebellion as these directional pants look to the 80s for inspiration, with its wide waistband that nips in the waist before bursting into a gentle blouson shape, further enhanced by well-placed pleats.

Jewels from Octavia Elizabeth and Carelle complete her look along with nude pumps.

Rihanna In Burberry & Monse – Fenty Beauty Artistry Event & Sephora Launch

Rihanna In Burberry & Monse - Fenty Beauty Artistry Event & Sephora Launch

The Fenty Beauty talk in collaboration with Sephora, for the launch of the Fenty Beauty’s new Stunna Lip paint ‘Uninvited’, took place in Dubai on Saturday (September 29).

Fenty Beauty Artistry Event: There have been mixed feelings about Riccardo Tisci’s Spring 2019 Burberry collection, but it appears that celebrities like the collection. Following M.I.A., Rihanna wore a trench coat – the staple on which the house was built on – and she showed us just how adaptable it can be. Cut from pure silk to a glossy, satin-like texture, the belted look takes on a new, sexier evening-ready rendition when styled with nothing but Savage x Fenty underwear, PVC sandals and a selection of jewels from Chopard , Harry Kotlar and Le Vian.

Fenty Beauty x Sephora The Dubai Mall: Later that same day, Rihanna wore other trench coat. This time a shorter and even sassier version in custom Monse. The look was styled with custom Giuseppe Zanotti gold leather wrap-up sandals and even more jewels from the first look. I love how Monse has put their stamp on this staple with the layering and asymmetrical cuts, but it was really the chunky gold buckle that made this look a winner for me.

M.I.A. In Burberry – ‘MATANGI / MAYA / M.I.A’ London Premiere

M.I.A. In Burberry - 'MATANGI / MAYA / M.I.A' London Premiere

Maya Arulpragasam aka M.I.A. attended the London premiere of ‘MATANGI / MAYA / M.I.A’ at The Curzon Mayfair on Wednesday (September 19).

The rapper is the first to wear a look from Riccardo Tisci’s 48-hour old, Spring 2019 collection for Burberry, which was marks his debut.

While Bryan Boy has liken this collection to Hugo Boss, I feel like there is plenty that will appeal to the traditional Burberry customer, but Maya’s fawn print oversized trench, layered over a matching blouse with patches bearing deer portraits definitely had an urbane feel.

I’m curious to see what the Kardashian’s do with this collection as they are best buds with Riccardo, but looking through this collection, it ain’t really their style.

Henry Golding In Burberry & Prada – SiriusXM’s Spotlight With The Cast Of ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ & The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

Henry Golding In Burberry & Prada - SiriusXM’s Spotlight With The Cast Of ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ & The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

Henry Golding was back to bless us with his movie star looks and impeccable style while joining his co-stars Awkwafina and Constance Wu for SiriusXM’s Spotlight With The Cast Of ‘Crazy Rich Asians,’ before flying solo on ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’ in New York City on Wednesday (August 15).

SiriusXM’s Spotlight With The Cast Of ‘Crazy Rich Asians: The actor wasn’t afraid to mix colours with print in this Burberry look. But once again I found myself not liking bordeaux shoes with this look. On the plus side, he isn’t afraid to shake things up.

‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’: I thought last week’s premiere was the day I fell in love with Henry’s style, but this Prada green kid mohair suit is so smooth and debonair, that I think I will count this as the official moment.

What I love most about Henry, apart from the obvious, is he’s yet to wear Hollywood standard all black or all navy.

Never change Henry. Never change.
