Party Rock Frocks

If you're going out on the town tonight to celebrate New Years Eve, and are still undecided on what to wear, here are some ideas that may help. I've selected a few party frocks to inspire you to ring in 2012 with savoir faire. We all have something in our closets that are either printed, colourful, simple or sparkly; this is a good opportunity to take it off the hanger and wear it with your best pair of heels. There is a saying that goes "what you're doing at exactly midnight on New Years Eve is a reflection of how the rest of your year will go". If that's anything to go by, then what you're wearing on New Years Eve should also set the tone for the year ahead. So make it sassy, sweet and stylish and hopefully that will signify a fashionable year to follow! <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5YQSvtnn6G_-JelvWja8YWRMP_XVcDpSlPxOse6v00_5myilXX_0OvWDzgz3n3YnO7porEDPp8E1lCVgtpMISpM7-_95s7KsjQ-Hnn979Kgj1xBNs5AkSXJOAGuqAviWMzaA_21RSzNnr/s1600/2012+dresses+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5YQSvtnn6G_-JelvWja8YWRMP_XVcDpSlPxOse6v00_5myilXX_0OvWDzgz3n3YnO7porEDPp8E1lCVgtpMISpM7-_95s7KsjQ-Hnn979Kgj1xBNs5AkSXJOAGuqAviWMzaA_21RSzNnr/s640/2012+dresses+1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqjQsnqd03JHgzakZZOCBZfbfh7aSEveXDd2G697-IAm63YgS9jl4ERWozzIT_k-zBFEIKhmBs1hhAiu38vDvduB_K69WfdpKHpXcxtoO_DIlClVMUnjOSBYDcbpT-9y4WfaBiVcII5zE-/s1600/2012+dresses.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqjQsnqd03JHgzakZZOCBZfbfh7aSEveXDd2G697-IAm63YgS9jl4ERWozzIT_k-zBFEIKhmBs1hhAiu38vDvduB_K69WfdpKHpXcxtoO_DIlClVMUnjOSBYDcbpT-9y4WfaBiVcII5zE-/s640/2012+dresses.jpg" width="640" /></a></div> What is your New Years style going to be like?  Wishing you a terrific 2012! Going out or staying in, whatever your plans are, I hope that you have a great one!

Same Dress, Different Shade

Which Marc Jacobs Dress Do You Prefer? Pink or Blue? This aqua Marc Jacobs Resort 2012 dress made it's debut on the red carpet earlier this year, worn by the lovely Elle Fanning. 6 months later, Fan Bing Bing wore the same dress, which has been revived in a blushing shade of bubblegum pink. Two very different stars, on two opposite sides of the planet...Who wears it better? <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlQ8ngmPp0VAoEd8ThwzmiCzCtBe4oikvvzuscjtfXOsoEC2Lbhde6DzdE5-aM_ShvjgqrGmwPLqw73LjRWE4iwBhr0lGXKlGkupRtqdu1vxS1KKCGu2VSmqKhnnqyGzqgBfewORw6Hy0I/s1600/marc+jacobs.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlQ8ngmPp0VAoEd8ThwzmiCzCtBe4oikvvzuscjtfXOsoEC2Lbhde6DzdE5-aM_ShvjgqrGmwPLqw73LjRWE4iwBhr0lGXKlGkupRtqdu1vxS1KKCGu2VSmqKhnnqyGzqgBfewORw6Hy0I/s640/marc+jacobs.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>Fan Bing Bing looked radiant at a movie premiere in South Korea this week (13 December). The Asian actress wore the Marc Jacobs sheer tulle dress, which is delicately adorned with a scattering of shaded pink floral appliqués. A red leather belt defined her waist, while sky-high nude Louboutin Mary-Janes were her choice of footwear. Australian model Julia Nobis displayed the dress as part of Marc Jacobs' Resort 2012 collection. She was styled with a white belt and blue shimmery heels. You can see the transparent effect of the dress is this photograph, whereas the others have been modified for the red carpet. Elle Fanning wore the dreamy sea blue version of the dress for the 'Women in Film' awards on 16 June in Beverly Hills. The floral motifs on her dress are a lighter shade of blue. Elle left out the belt and added a fun pop of colour with coral Chanel sling-backs. I prefer (and not because pink is my colour) Fan's dress more. It fits her better and that red belt was a winning choice. Though I'm not too keen on the heavy platforms heels. If Elle had added a belt, it would have made a huge difference. Which version of the Marc Jacobs dress do you prefer, Pink or Blue?

A Triple Shot of "Who Wore It Better?"

It has been a week of repeats in the land of the famous and fashionable. Six celebrities, three different dresses. Who started the trend and who followed? Let's have a look. <div style="text-align: center;">Who Wore Thomas Wylde Better?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj7bzRudaaT4DTz9dCIyrMoEyW0sjcR39gpDC2MOfbUu-0o5eU-TBn8WA3hxRxf1epp2liprm2LziJ6rpOfkKCu2tMgzQnTCjR3HAHneQqTjoRbRsYoM4ogaP9hB0ytNeJ_4iCC4yGE8A4/s1600/wwib3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj7bzRudaaT4DTz9dCIyrMoEyW0sjcR39gpDC2MOfbUu-0o5eU-TBn8WA3hxRxf1epp2liprm2LziJ6rpOfkKCu2tMgzQnTCjR3HAHneQqTjoRbRsYoM4ogaP9hB0ytNeJ_4iCC4yGE8A4/s640/wwib3.jpg" width="512" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Firstly, we have two singing stars wearing the same dress by Thomas Wylde.

The teen actress donned the dress for the premiere of her movie 'The Last Song'. She added Salvatore Ferragamo heels and an updo. Both ladies wore arm jewellery.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">My Verdict: I like Nicole in this dress, she fills it out better and the shoulder pleats seem to set better on her.</div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div> <div style="text-align: center;">Who Wore Chagoury Couture Better?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgepGiaaVOuY7h8JN24MOZOBIc7I43KBSJKxDdD3Au5l3WdK1Dbya0GXi_n1-KyIDQRuRjn_20b4-IR64qY_c14TiIq-DUE7STsZvKwyDnOGgbO6Jv1vdA9SbkcntMgu4_jxHM0t9r9r_W-/s1600/wwib2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgepGiaaVOuY7h8JN24MOZOBIc7I43KBSJKxDdD3Au5l3WdK1Dbya0GXi_n1-KyIDQRuRjn_20b4-IR64qY_c14TiIq-DUE7STsZvKwyDnOGgbO6Jv1vdA9SbkcntMgu4_jxHM0t9r9r_W-/s640/wwib2.jpg" width="512" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Left: Heroes actress Hayden Panettiere wore this crimson dress with strapless sweetheart necklace by Chagoury Couture on November 17, for the 'Robert Verdi Jewellery' event in New York City.

She wore her hair up with a slight tease.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Right: Canadian actress Laura Vandervoort first wore the little red cocktail dress in June of this year, to the premiere of the 'Green Lantern' in LA. She elegantly paired it with a nude clutch bag and peep-toe heels. Laura had her hair done in a neat ponytail.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">My Verdict: I prefer this dress worn simply, as on Laura.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;">Who Wore Versace for H&M Better?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSqzdJEKdkoyTpv04GRj1ue4LvpG4LpmxTS6Rny3sUMFTZUfdDwMfVR6UQ25NgwFLcQ0niPAlwkjpSFnv2L2xWeRBgcGVu_O92ztrwzuYUDFYnP5Bop8XCqs2HS7yI98JbMEFTEqANe_pU/s1600/wwib1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSqzdJEKdkoyTpv04GRj1ue4LvpG4LpmxTS6Rny3sUMFTZUfdDwMfVR6UQ25NgwFLcQ0niPAlwkjpSFnv2L2xWeRBgcGVu_O92ztrwzuYUDFYnP5Bop8XCqs2HS7yI98JbMEFTEqANe_pU/s640/wwib1.jpg" style="cursor: move;" width="512" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Left: Chinese megastar Fan Bingbing adds her own unique twist to this black and gold ensemble by Versace for H&M.

Who Wore Pucci Better?

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Who Wore It Better?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Emilio Pucci Spring 2011 dress</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> </div>Battling it out for today's title of 'Who Wore It Better' is a Brazilian supermodel, an Australian pop veteran and the best thing out of Barbados. The dress in question is a gorgeous cobalt blue, long-sleeved, open-back number by Peter Dundas for Emilio Pucci. The dress is richly embroidered with beads, mirrors, crystals and tassels.<div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTWbnFU-WpULtcHOJ695HvwsULKftfFiaco95jvTF99DdyZ7B5Gqv3IV0xhECmlnw1ydj7YDwRVGauoWaIWN0Ml4qisxZRjnnawpEIHfIVtEH3jHEx2d4tCa5SdL4AO8uTaiDBqQthVKD9/s1600/pucci.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTWbnFU-WpULtcHOJ695HvwsULKftfFiaco95jvTF99DdyZ7B5Gqv3IV0xhECmlnw1ydj7YDwRVGauoWaIWN0Ml4qisxZRjnnawpEIHfIVtEH3jHEx2d4tCa5SdL4AO8uTaiDBqQthVKD9/s640/pucci.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>1. Adriana Lima took the dress out for a stroll at the Victoria's Secret after party last week in New York City. The model wore pointy-toe glittery silver pumps and a black bow clutch bag with it. 2. In June 2011, Aphrodite herself, Kylie Minogue wore the mini dress during her 'Les Folies' tour in Brisbane, Australia. The petite songstress paired it with strappy silver heels. 3. Always one to start a trend, Rihanna was the first to wear the dress 7 months before everyone else, in November last year. The singer wore the royal blue dress after the 2010 MTV European Music Awards in Madrid, Spain. Metallic pointy toe heels complete her look. 4. The dress worn on the runway by Russian model Natasha Poly, paired with tan sandals. This dress has also been popular with fashion editors. It has been seen in several international magazines and it makes sense why - The fit is flawless, the colour is dynamic on any skin tone and with a bit of that sparkle, it truly does catch the eye every time. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ1YORF8gLYsqB8srmlHfvHVyn5DgD1S8Gu28Y3KJrrJaNp6sv9ajPAx9LWHHr2tOuHBm7WfEFCCu4_zJKzrQyONFX4p9MA9bbM3rciBOkFPgK5rEgJfkGyzkGgd7A7jS1X_CRXIL7GyfY/s1600/pucci2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZ1YORF8gLYsqB8srmlHfvHVyn5DgD1S8Gu28Y3KJrrJaNp6sv9ajPAx9LWHHr2tOuHBm7WfEFCCu4_zJKzrQyONFX4p9MA9bbM3rciBOkFPgK5rEgJfkGyzkGgd7A7jS1X_CRXIL7GyfY/s640/pucci2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div> From Top Left: Heather Marks covers Canada's Flare magazine in March 2011. The dress is styled with a chunky gold necklace and colourful earrings. English actress Anna Friel covers Stylist magazine June 2011 in the electric dress, with the sexy strappy back clearly visible. She wears Sergio Rossi 'Caligola' heels. American model Angela Lindvall relaxes on the couch in L'Officiel France, May 2011. Hye Park matches her dress with a pair of Jimmy Choo 'Niagra' sandals in the US version of Marie Claire, May 2011. Bottom Row: Dutch model Patricia van der Vliet wears the dress in Vogue Nippon April 2011. Camilla Belle poses for the March 2011 issue of Glamour Mexico. Karmen Pedaru puts on a massive red wig for Vogue Nippon March 2011. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Ukranian model Natalia Chabanenko in a fashion editorial for Numero Toyko March 2011. As for 'Who Wore It Better?', this is a tough one, as this dress seems to suit every model/starlet who has worn it. If I had to chose, I'd pick Rihanna. She wears it with the most spunk. Not everyone can pull off an electric blue dress with a flaming red hair. In the editorials, I like the styling on Anna Friel and Korean-American gal Hye Park - it must be those Jimmy Choo's. What are your thoughts? </div>

Who Wore The Flapper Fringe Dress Better?

Who Wore It Better? Gucci Sping 2012 Flapper Dress The LACMA Arts & Film Gala was held this past weekend in Los Angeles, presented by Gucci. When events are hosted by elite fashion brands, it's only natural that stars choose to wear outfits made by designer themselves. Three starlets did just that, picking out 20's inspired dresses from the same Gucci collection, in the same colours, all with an interrelated design, proving that their taste in high-fashion dresses are very similar. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHKkd21VBjO8EjfJpGpTrckF_7eXNos_Z_uzbAsGXIQQe0WB1letWnIdl6foUZljO3vgvdaAauN59nHMmnbrwL8buONBhHutfVVKh_C1MFVGgDUP2VG3LgHQwuWstCrbkAo7Kewru2fngm/s1600/gala1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHKkd21VBjO8EjfJpGpTrckF_7eXNos_Z_uzbAsGXIQQe0WB1letWnIdl6foUZljO3vgvdaAauN59nHMmnbrwL8buONBhHutfVVKh_C1MFVGgDUP2VG3LgHQwuWstCrbkAo7Kewru2fngm/s640/gala1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>Zoe Saldana wore a cap-sleeved v-neck black dress with loosely fitting top, the skirt draped with gold thread tassels.   Camilla Belle is no stranger to a glamorous Gucci dress. The actress wore a fringed dress with geometric design, hers differed with slots of white and wide striped straps.   Evan Rachel Wood fit the part of a 20's screen queen in her knee-length version of the black and gold flapper dress, with higher v-neckline.  <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPEESyHTINfYv4_ttH4DantwmO7o32l-QstqjyigbN-Fo6oG3RN-Jft_8QlkzCVWlWig4d0yTka9nwGlERkJm3M0TcZ3FIsB3QQR-eOAn2iJcXuzBJDvw78fiHj2xSFEEjSQVBqmOBjExI/s1600/gucci.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPEESyHTINfYv4_ttH4DantwmO7o32l-QstqjyigbN-Fo6oG3RN-Jft_8QlkzCVWlWig4d0yTka9nwGlERkJm3M0TcZ3FIsB3QQR-eOAn2iJcXuzBJDvw78fiHj2xSFEEjSQVBqmOBjExI/s640/gucci.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>Zoe wore her hair up in a tousled style, showing off her gold Neil Lane earrings. A smokey plum colour adorned her eyes. Camilla had her hair done in a half-up half-down style. She wore pearl stud earrings and metallic silver eye makeup.  Evan's wavy vintage hairstyle was in sync with her 20's style outfit. She accessorized with black drop earrings, smokey eyes and a cherry lip. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGuMhUHBRbmzcoWNx5O5ZBSfvU3ucYzXcHDi6qGcBkEkObNy1GOMYsPZLVgrfjN_wdX8NIs3X_9BoHQs3ANqCuQXIYrwZbeV01RdN_TrBxrUmr7wsTZ8IdN3cnCQTGGQXszhPr2AgF0I60/s1600/gucci+shoes.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="192" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGuMhUHBRbmzcoWNx5O5ZBSfvU3ucYzXcHDi6qGcBkEkObNy1GOMYsPZLVgrfjN_wdX8NIs3X_9BoHQs3ANqCuQXIYrwZbeV01RdN_TrBxrUmr7wsTZ8IdN3cnCQTGGQXszhPr2AgF0I60/s640/gucci+shoes.jpg" width="640" /></a> Zoey wore black peep-toe heels with a double chain ankle strap and a gold heel. Camilla's strappy gold heels with thin metallic ankle strap are also by Gucci. Evan Rachel wore gold T-bar sandals, with chain detailing and double ankle strap. I think these looks would have been equally pretty...if they were all not worn to the exact same event. Together on the red carpet, these three actresses look like part of a stylish Gucci-clad girl band, when each of them should in fact, stand out. As you may know by now, I'm a Camilla Belle style fan, so I'm choosing her flapper fringed look as my favourite. Also her dress wasn't as similar as the other two. Who is your pick?

Dress Déja Vu

This week, I noticed two upcoming Hollywood starlets wearing remarkably similar dresses - but by two completely different designers. Pretty blonde 'Footloose' actress Julianne Hough and 'Twilight' star Ashley Greene chose matt gold mini dresses, embroidered with a glossier gold swirl-like pattern. It's safe to say that designers are often inspired by the same things, in this case two-tone gold & a rose petal design.  <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-blpic_CxgvpKVsMgBQfWoV6cgSU4yWSK-ItrYmdVI_z7tgJ0RHGVJ4q6MBTixXyZOvzLlOihj6lfkEz_o6ZEswIT2cVLE_601x9CWqg2L2MfBRTXAatF7eA7nbf1fy7p1nC14_6zq3l4/s1600/dress+dejavu.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-blpic_CxgvpKVsMgBQfWoV6cgSU4yWSK-ItrYmdVI_z7tgJ0RHGVJ4q6MBTixXyZOvzLlOihj6lfkEz_o6ZEswIT2cVLE_601x9CWqg2L2MfBRTXAatF7eA7nbf1fy7p1nC14_6zq3l4/s640/dress+dejavu.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Left: Julianne Hough wore a dress by Mumbai born designer Naeem Khan to the 15th Annual Hollywood Film Awards Gala.

The brunette actress wore a gold dress by American designer L' Wren Scott, also with a deep V-neck, emphasised waist design and metallic gold rose motif. Her nude heels are by Brian Atwood. I think strappy gold sandals would have been a better fit.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"> </div>Both these dresses seem like they could be from the same collection or designer, don't you think?

Glitter Girls

Trendspotting Black & Gold Sequin Dresses The latest star-studded trend to hit the red carpet is glitter-covered gowns. In the past few weeks, a string of celebrities have been seen wearing sparkly sequined dresses in shades of black and gold, or a combination of both. So put on your shades and have a closer look at this dazzling new trend. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Evening Gowns <img border="0" height="462" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUpokGbWg-5Dko_bkfnhdKK_GgRBB2sOhWps98gExW-C5aiDUt6kDCyY5w1v7pNWjfntkyIFrCX_Na24NQWj9EkGX5vOWCYsAHX3rNnOrwWPXNQFKthyzYzsfAcfytkYr9rds6v44MCuv9/s640/gg5.jpg" width="640" /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUpokGbWg-5Dko_bkfnhdKK_GgRBB2sOhWps98gExW-C5aiDUt6kDCyY5w1v7pNWjfntkyIFrCX_Na24NQWj9EkGX5vOWCYsAHX3rNnOrwWPXNQFKthyzYzsfAcfytkYr9rds6v44MCuv9/s1600/gg5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a> Naya Rivera sparkles in a black and gold strapless gown with wavy line design by Douglas Hannat.

Badgley Mischka Resort 2012

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: auto;">Design team Badgely Mischka have created a beautiful range of evening wear for their Resort 2012 Collection. The colour palette in this range is diverse, boasting sensational shades of hot pink, greens, purple and twilight blues. They have transformed the ordinary cocktail dress into something more extravagant. The evening gowns have all been designed to include a certain 'wow' factor.</div> <div style="text-align: auto;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxR_C7hvW1JMjWAsbytBL88TW4BoLZi1LvFV4s-FQLxYr_zlOsQV4Q3_3sMDQ2l2vdeYaUWRpquesTJb5q5soTH9p-_dOCgI0rooRYe_f8RLViJyc680zf3x8NaUYq3rXI13Vk8YoR7dI/s1600/badgley+mishkaResort.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxR_C7hvW1JMjWAsbytBL88TW4BoLZi1LvFV4s-FQLxYr_zlOsQV4Q3_3sMDQ2l2vdeYaUWRpquesTJb5q5soTH9p-_dOCgI0rooRYe_f8RLViJyc680zf3x8NaUYq3rXI13Vk8YoR7dI/s640/badgley+mishkaResort.jpg" width="640" /></a></div> </div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;">Wearing one of these party dresses will undoubtedly get you noticed. An interesting 3D effect has been used on the apricot orange dress and the white one (bottom right). Top middle is a strapless cerise dress that graduates into different coloured frills. Sparkle is also scattered on a few dresses, as are huge cascading bows.</div><div style="text-align: auto;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMTerf1vq7NRoaAw21WT3kiVH6XEc-L0Bs7-tVQnRoR-vJZchwZT8h1ks4Ooh1elfeUc-SqMD6KStWaIAd_rOXpWPGEmAUW96un487xysFupwPa4qNKMrYh1DspT2VE_SxQDFLE2qd-cw/s1600/bmresort2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMTerf1vq7NRoaAw21WT3kiVH6XEc-L0Bs7-tVQnRoR-vJZchwZT8h1ks4Ooh1elfeUc-SqMD6KStWaIAd_rOXpWPGEmAUW96un487xysFupwPa4qNKMrYh1DspT2VE_SxQDFLE2qd-cw/s640/bmresort2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"> <div style="text-align: auto;">Some of the evening gowns are longer versions of the cocktail dresses. Each of these dresses has a significant design feature that stands out. One of my favourite picks is the aubergine empire waist gown, pictured bottom left. The lavender ombre gown with feathered skirt is a definite show stopper.</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div>

Pixie Lott for Lipsy 2011

Lipsy Spring/Summer 2011 featuring Pixie Lott UK brand Lipsy is a favourite amongst stylish South African girls. Their line yields young, fun and flirty dresses for a snazzy night out on the town. For the Spring/Summer 2011 collection, Lipsy has expanded their range to retro-chic daywear. British singer Pixie Lott lent her design ideas to the brand; creating two distinct, feminine lines. There's the relaxed and romantic 'California Dreaming' and the sexy and spirited 'Pixie Party'.  <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifzX2jauctIyB6E9vea-LbnGmqegPbeXBGdvPh26ctT2gzN-VtjiIppC1KChQ2tX2wliOnBFBJVusgpZZvGF0TYDuye2RUtIQlptnyLNkJFaX5Ffge12JSRUAxA583ytBYG1y21NlM-lM/s1600/lipsy+pixie+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifzX2jauctIyB6E9vea-LbnGmqegPbeXBGdvPh26ctT2gzN-VtjiIppC1KChQ2tX2wliOnBFBJVusgpZZvGF0TYDuye2RUtIQlptnyLNkJFaX5Ffge12JSRUAxA583ytBYG1y21NlM-lM/s640/lipsy+pixie+1.jpg" width="462" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;">The colours are soft and girly with pretty pinks, peaches and flowery prints. The silhouettes are floaty and ultra-feminine. There are delicate day dresses, floral maxis, sundresses and ruffled jumpsuits. Pixie wears subtle make-up and loose natural waves for these country casual looks.</div><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjSoIaQEkBiLJ9o8lP2ANuKnWFubg8b95GO9R_1GWoaCb7hhzde9SAXbuhULSAmq30MH9tExBnoFgiaJG6xfDVfVq0DXUCGqFZIXDO_tr4rfneTZtS6DdzTGXyz0XDlJ8JWtwBmiUzlZM/s1600/lipsy+pixie+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjSoIaQEkBiLJ9o8lP2ANuKnWFubg8b95GO9R_1GWoaCb7hhzde9SAXbuhULSAmq30MH9tExBnoFgiaJG6xfDVfVq0DXUCGqFZIXDO_tr4rfneTZtS6DdzTGXyz0XDlJ8JWtwBmiUzlZM/s640/lipsy+pixie+2.jpg" width="512" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div style="text-align: center;"> The cheery campaign was shot in sunny Ibiza, Spain. The dresses are styled with cute floppy hats, long necklaces, skinny belts and fresh flowers.

Pixie's make-up is amped up for this part of the shoot, with her platinum locks styled in side-swept waves. She is a party princess in the turquoise tiered dress and hot pink asymmetrical mini. If you're not one for colour, opt for a classic little black or white Lipsy dress.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Lispy's Spring/Summer Collection takes you confidently and fashionably from free-spirtied daywear to glamourous cocktail wear.

Kelly Rowland wore a hot pink bandage mini by Hervé Léger with strappy nude sandals. Taylor Swift was slightly overdressed but sparkled nevertheless in a gold sequined gown by Elie Saab. Her Veronica Lake side swept waves look so beautiful. Taylor won the 'Top Album Artist' and 'Top Country Artist' award. Keri Hilson chose a 70's inspired Rachel Roy chartreuse mini with sheer sleeves and a green belt.</td></tr> </tbody></table> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div> 'Oh No' Outfits <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAgs083EnW0uP_-qieg5dWYZgWQHNT9PcDIK16YFpisPYihLc-QeMVdJjvj0Luti2B41ZH7hJrkPLpQMSThDrVxhIMiYB14MLo76qlLeZs_7G73O8u2KBmHQswbgPEIUrCxCa879ftbaE/s1600/billboard+awards.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAgs083EnW0uP_-qieg5dWYZgWQHNT9PcDIK16YFpisPYihLc-QeMVdJjvj0Luti2B41ZH7hJrkPLpQMSThDrVxhIMiYB14MLo76qlLeZs_7G73O8u2KBmHQswbgPEIUrCxCa879ftbaE/s640/billboard+awards.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Singer and model Nayer looked like a psychedelic maypole with multi-coloured ribbons tossed over her nude bodysuit.

Nicki Minaj likes making bold unfashionable statements but this light blue sequin-tassel outfit really belongs to Cirque du Soleil.

Chanel Resort 2012 Event

Star Style Chanel Resort 2012 Presentation Celeb Style Icons assembled in the French Riviera to celebrate the Chanel Resort 2012 Collection. Festivities started the night before at a dinner honouring Karl Lagerfeld, with the fashion show the next day. Of course, all these stylish stars were dressed in Chanel. Alexa Chung <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyxKONbNSysN5Zo7-hjESXiOsWHGUH3wL05nBqF5MpdT5R1LqcnnWClsXz1X7NAB5O7mocPwJuFFzC1cpHPO5s1aNHhJdpdE_kmJ5a3zCk0VcPk4ua0m0xqZ-7IZZbYQWiQzDpRJ8fli0/s1600/alexa+chung+chanel.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyxKONbNSysN5Zo7-hjESXiOsWHGUH3wL05nBqF5MpdT5R1LqcnnWClsXz1X7NAB5O7mocPwJuFFzC1cpHPO5s1aNHhJdpdE_kmJ5a3zCk0VcPk4ua0m0xqZ-7IZZbYQWiQzDpRJ8fli0/s640/alexa+chung+chanel.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Alexa Chung is demure in a smokey grey short-sleeve dress with black Chanel flats. I prefer her look when compared to the runway. The next day, she chose a soft pink Spring 2011 dress with delicate floral appliqués and a tattered hem. Her shoes are by Louis Vuitton. It's nice to see that Alexa always picks comfort over ridiculously high heels.</td></tr> </tbody></table> Blake Lively <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgyGXesbqlDMces_2QVRe0rv7lpTSWfdzjm4itxO8wS81sxDEXdJnVx3-8sbeaw4zG6ZySaOojRBZjQgQ4kr6qz5khOvMXOP9ff8qgvuX55fe2GqBsdsxecn1Ozp-QFiBmm6ezEtxw1eo/s1600/blake+lively+chanel.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgyGXesbqlDMces_2QVRe0rv7lpTSWfdzjm4itxO8wS81sxDEXdJnVx3-8sbeaw4zG6ZySaOojRBZjQgQ4kr6qz5khOvMXOP9ff8qgvuX55fe2GqBsdsxecn1Ozp-QFiBmm6ezEtxw1eo/s640/blake+lively+chanel.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Karl Lagerfeld's current muse, Blake Lively was dressed in a black sequined blazer, white embellished top and draped mini skirt, which is far shorter on her than the runway model. Her heels are by Christian Louboutin. I prefer her with blonde hair. At the dinner event, Blake wore a frothy white dress and bolero ensemble, with nude Louboutins. This look does not translate well off the runway. It's too much. </td></tr> </tbody></table> Vanessa Paradis and Clemence Poesy <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnlEhu4Luiih_M6R-EDIxELUMPD1EmJKRKL96YYqmWeGA91lOGPhVLyQL9UQwUjchNkQbSpLgKNTG-O3kC5e5k74tAjAcOIuNWswldIUzwnV2_d9wQT_9Rm6yve47K5ASh2siUFjOJQp0/s1600/clemence+vanessa+chanel.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnlEhu4Luiih_M6R-EDIxELUMPD1EmJKRKL96YYqmWeGA91lOGPhVLyQL9UQwUjchNkQbSpLgKNTG-O3kC5e5k74tAjAcOIuNWswldIUzwnV2_d9wQT_9Rm6yve47K5ASh2siUFjOJQp0/s640/clemence+vanessa+chanel.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Johnny Depp's significant other Vanessa Paradis was glamorous in a sparkly black jumpsuit with deep V-neckline. She accessorized with strappy nude sandals, a black bag and gold cuffs. Rising French star, Clemence Poesy opted for a yellow tweed V-neck dress with finely feathered skirt. She paired it with a nude clutch and matching heels. At least her YSL sandals are better than those on the runway, as is her subtle make-up.</td></tr> </tbody></table> Rachel Bilson <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikVseU1cqw1OiABHw4BLQddgzeXUTdWUr-RD6tNoF-5EOnteg6Ab_V0tnWdpb4obQ-16HAucMkg5b4yb8RpSUCP0un2L8-MibvcHf-NJqrJujUHroyZG-X2KE1RdqAZaUmbxrwyWvcdqk/s1600/rachel+bilson+chanel.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikVseU1cqw1OiABHw4BLQddgzeXUTdWUr-RD6tNoF-5EOnteg6Ab_V0tnWdpb4obQ-16HAucMkg5b4yb8RpSUCP0un2L8-MibvcHf-NJqrJujUHroyZG-X2KE1RdqAZaUmbxrwyWvcdqk/s640/rachel+bilson+chanel.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Leave it to Rachel Bilson to bring her own flair to the fashion front. Unlike other stars who wore outfits directly off the Chanel runway, Rachel knows how to mix things up. At the dinner, Rachel looked chic in a dark grey tweed coat and black dress. She kept it fresh with a coral hat. At the fashion show, Rachel combined separates from 2 different Chanel collections. She wore a shimmery sleeveless top, paired with black leather shorts and a blazer. Her shoes on both occasions are by Christian Louboutin.</td></tr> </tbody></table>
