Our Royal Style Obsession: Queen Letizia of Spain

If one thing is quite certain, Queen Letizia of Spain puts the regal in royal style. Modern elegance pervades her every move, as she effortlessly encapsulates what it means to dress to impress—without a hint of try-hard.

Just lately, she’s spoilt us for choice in six looks over the course of the last 10 days or so.

Zarzuela Palace: In Madrid on Tuesday (October 17), she brought easy sophistication to an approachable Zara floral dress that could have turned rather aging with its granny’s sofa print were it not for her fun bob and dark pumps.

‘Princesa De Asturias’ Awards 2017 – Day 1: This is the very incarnation of what the colour ‘royal blue’ should be. I love how this Felipe Varela plisse dress glides so beautifully with its minimalistic elegance. Yet, it is quickly escalated to high glamour via her sparkling jewels and sleek ponytail at the first day of the awards on Thursday (October 19).

‘Princesa De Asturias’ Awards 2017 – Day 2: The next day, a return to florals saw her wear this Carolina Herrera Resort 2018 frock that was imbued with a girlish spirit while still maintaining its appropriate sense of refinement.

Deepika Padukone In Zara – OPPO F3 Event

If Olivia Culpo has piqued your interest, and you’re looking for more inspiration when it comes to the combining red and pink, Deepika Padukone has got you covered.

Back on August 10, the Bollywood star attended the launched of the OPPO F3 limited edition smartphone in Mumbai wearing a red jacquard Zara oriental print dress paired with the customised trousers in a hot pink hue.

The pieces are gorgeous on their own, however, put together, they form Salwar Kameez-style look with wide-leg trousers.

Totally committing to the colour scheme, she added magenta pointed-toe Christian Louboutin ‘Iriza’ pumps and Stella McCartney earrings.

Katie Aselton In Zara – ‘Descendants 2’ LA Premiere

If you’ve been inside a Zara store recently, you would’ve spotted the striped dress Katie Aselton wore to the ‘Descendants 2’ LA premiere on Tuesday (July 11).

Stripes are always in style, but for Spring 2017 we’ve seen a new resurgence with everyone from Gigi Hadid, Yara Shahidi, Naomie Harris, Janelle Monae, Freida Pinto and Michelle Dockery incorporating the trend into their street style looks and during awards season; going from in-your-face colour-blocked incarnations to a reimagining of classic pinstripes.

Kate went for the more classic approach for her laidback outing.

It’s interesting how she opted to keep her shoes anonymous, but added a cheeky colourful striped Edie Parker ‘Jean’ clutch to bring an extra punch to her look.

2015 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards Red Carpet Roundup

Plenty more PYTs were spotted on the orange carpet at the 2015 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards at The Forum on Saturday (March 28) in Inglewood, California, each rocking their own interpretation of the youthful, fun dress code.

Willow Shields: Currently on ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ the starlet traded the sequins and sparkle for a Self-Portrait Resort 2015 asymmetrical crop top with matching culottes in a striking, graphic square print. I love the directional shaping of this look—and that she accented the black-and-white ensemble with deep plum-coloured heels and clutch, which elevated it to the next level. Sideswept waves softened the stronger edge for a flirty finish.

Quvenzhane Wallis: As the face of Armani Junior’s Spring/Summer 2015 advertising campaign, the starlet represented the brand well in an Armani Junior white cotton pique, sleeveless dress and matching jacket with pink and pastel-green detailing. Worn with white platform sneakers, the look struck a balance between sporty and girly styling, which she topped off with a high bun and matching pink lippie.

Debby Ryan: Debuting a majorly new mane, the actress swapped her signature flame-red locks for light lavender-gray strands. Adding to the colour story, she wore a Sachin & Babi Noir multihued, flirty frock with sheer detailing paired with a complementary Edie Parker ‘Lara’ clutch and sky-blue pumps. I could have done without the nose ring, but I actually love this bright, bold look from Debby—even if her hair completely has thrown me for a loop.

The DAILY FRONT ROW ‘Fashion Los Angeles Awards’ Red Carpet Roundup

Here is a quick roundup from The DAILY FRONT ROW ‘Fashion Los Angeles Awards’ Show held at Sunset Tower on Thursday (January 22) in West Hollywood, California.

Kerry Washington: The ‘Scandal’ star wore a black, white and grey look that was distinctly lacking in flavour. Let’s pray this lull doesn’t continue much longer as her usual three-pointers are turning into air balls.

Gigi Hadid: Presented with the Model of the Year award, the blonde beauty kept her look simple wearing a watermelon-hued one-shoulder Calvin Klein fitted dress, which hugged in all the right places.

Minka Kelly: The actress, who usually works minimalist looks in simple silhouettes, donned a Herve Leger multicoloured textural flared frock with studded details. Sadly, for me this doesn’t work. It’s not really suited to her style and it’s giving her quarterback shoulders.

Olivia Palermo In Haute Hippie & Zara – Shutterfly By Design Event

Olivia Palermo hosted the Shutterfly By Design event alongside Brit Morin and Michelle Workman on Wednesday (June 25) in New York City prior to her nuptials.

The socialite wore a colourful exotic look with a touch of Moroccan flair which is quite a feast for the eyes

You don’t know whether to look at her Haute Hippie ikat-print free-flowing blouse in vivid hues or her beautiful Zara embellished shorts first.

Your eye is then quickly drawn to her embellished loafers.

The top and shorts are perfection; the shoes, not so much.

Perhaps it was one embellished piece too far for me. I would’ve added a pair of nude sandals or ballet flats.

Do the shoes work for you?
