Dress Crush...

Amber Heard graced the red carpet at 4th annual Art Of Elysium Gala lastnight,
 and easily claimed it as her stage in this Julian Macdonald dress from the designers 2009 spring collection.

I am in love with this dress & this look.
Her stylist needs to be given a medal!!!
The dress its self is amazing & i wish i ;;
one) had the money to own it,
two) had the body to wear it,
three) had somewhere to wear it to!

  
Recognize it?
 .................
.........
Cynthia Nixon (Miranda) Sex & the City 2.

Who wore it better: Cynthia or amber?
& which colour do you like best?
 love.

Leighton Missoni.

These Gossip Girls have it going on!
Lively has bagged Chanel (no pun intended..=])
And now fellow Gossip girl beauty Leighton Meester has been announced as the face of Missoni's spring/ summer 2011 campaign.



I love how care free and happy she looks. 
Its not posed for or over the top,
Just relaxed and beautiful....
almost like a personal photo not the shot for a campaign.
It's very true to form for the art obsessed fashion house.
I also love how little make-up Leighton's wearing, Shes so pretty!


What do you think of the released photos so far? 
...& of the toned down Miss. Meester?
did you know she was born in jail?...
love.

Style Crush; Katherine Heigl.

I love Katherine Heigl.
She's funny, talented and she has a great casual style.


{love these two}


Chic, casual and easy.
{It's like girl next door...all grown up.}
I love that Katherine doesn't feel the need to stay on trend, or wear heels everywhere...
shes fine in her jeans, leggings & flats.
Heigl's personal wardrobe is full of earthy tones and easily mixed, simple pieces,
Shes the Perfect example of a 'staple wardrobe'-one built on a few translatable pieces.
no over accessorizing, unessential add on's or embellishments.
Just tailored comfort.
I'm loving this everyday look.

out of curiosity...
Do you prefer Katherine the blond or the brunette?


Jeans & boots...love.

The angel behind the game-Danimezza
This weeks theme-
Anti fashionista.


Last week the unthinkable struck a much loved fellow blogger  Lori from Random Ramblings of a SAHM, Tony-her husband,her best friend and her children's father was admitted to ICU after an accident left him critical & fighting for his life.
  Tony,Lori and their family forught but Tony passed away on Monday.

Danimezza the creator of Polly dolly has decided to dedicate this weeks sets to Lori. To find out more about Lori visit the link above...to donate to Lori visit Danimezza's set (here)

Reality- Jeans & a nice top are my uniform. with comfy underwear and sensible ballet flats.When it comes to jewelry i could open my own diva store i have soo...much of it!
I love to glamorize my outfit a little with some nice earrings and a big beautiful cocktail ring.
I also have a weakness for handbags...One of my favorite brands (for an affordable bag...) is Ruby & Kit (an extension of strand bags & equip) {check out the the 'eyelet & bow large blush tote...my favorite handbag...so far ;p}


Make up & hair- Is always the same...I'm a creature of habit-winged black eyeliner, Black mascara, lip gloss & some blush for colour. And i straighten my hair even if I'm not going anywhere all day with my best friend (my GHD {Saved up for 6months for that baby!})
Dream- I love this dress!!! I wish i could wear classy structured dresses & heels all day but i cant. 
Do i really need to explain the Chanel bag this time...you guys should know what i would do to have this bag by now. =p 
If i could i would team it with sexy Victoria's Secret underwear and add the entire line of 'House of Harlow' jewelry to my diva collection. ( click here =] )
But if you rock up to my house un announced...you'll find me in my cow Pj's & cow slippers with my cow mug full of coffee and it's 95% likely you'll also see my dragging one of my many stuffed cows around my house.... lmao.
I told you im a kid at heart.

...All the fluffy stuffed ones any ways.

Coffee & moo cows....Love.

Mademoiselle Chanel Lively.



Karl Lagerfeld  has given Blake Lively the honor of being the official face of the “MADEMOISELLE” handbag line for Chanel.

"She's a kind of American dream girl," says designer Karl Lagerfeld on the fresh new face of the dream fashion house.

The ads for the campaign which were photographed by Lagerfeld him self in the historic apartment where Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel once showed her collection; Will start running an April this year.


"I will always feel it's more than just a purse. It's a quilted case full of lipstick, love letters and the dreams and possibilities that I have always felt every time I see that beautiful 'CC'."

I think she's perfect for it!
Shes fresh, classy, youthful & not afraid to mess around with fashion.
I can't wait to see these photos- they are going to be absolutely stunning! 

So what to you think of the newest addition
to the 'Chanel girl' hall of fame?

love.

Style Crush;Nicole Richie.

I love the laid back ease of Nicole's style.
Chic, easy, stylish & really easy to re-create. 
Thrown together & effortless,this mumma is defiantly in a league of her own.
See when the 'Bohemian' style was hugely popular circa 2007-2008.
I jumped on the band wagon while i could; as i knew this dream wouldn't last.
(And i was right)
Yet Nichole has held onto this fashion trend, avoided ending up on the 'worst dress list' of every magazine in the word, but also made the style her own...And turned it in to an aspect of her career.
(Go ahead type 'bohemian fashion' into google images....)






She seems to have grown up & found herself in it.
Which is great and i mean thank god!... 
It's certainly a far cry from this;




Aghhhh the 90's were not good to thee.

What do you think of Miss. Richie's style (now)? 
love.
