Elsa Pataky In Blumarine – Top Glamour Awards 2010

The Top Glamour Awards 2010 took place in Mexico recently.
Spanish actress Elsa Pataky arrived wearing a very sexy Blumarine Fall 2010 dress.
Her chiffon crystal embroidered bustier dress had a flowing chiffon train.
Elsa loves to show off her gorgeous figure, but I’m not surprised she didn’t wear her dress as dangerously short as the model.
Suede embellished heels and bun swept to the side completed her sexy red carpet look.

Lin Chiling In Valentino – 47th Golden Horse Film Awards

Lin Chiling was one of my favourites to walk the red carpet at the 47th Golden Horse Film Awards which was held in Taiwan recently.
The actress and model was breath-taking wearing an exquisite Valentino Pre-Fall 2010 gown.
I love how her gown shimmers via the beaded details on the skirt which are lost in the models studio picture.
We also get to see more of the lace details on the bodice.
Beauty, great style, grace and elegance always secures a star a spot on the BDOTW poll.

Vivian Hsu In Lanvin – 47th Golden Horse Film Awards

Actress Vivian Hsu arrived at the 47th Golden Horse Film Awards wearing Lanvin.
Her Spring 2010 sleeveless dress with a thigh-high split has the same draped detail as the jumpsuit which was presented on the runway.
From this picture it looks like Vivian has taken inspiration from Blake Lively by holding her dress to show off her legs.
I like this look but I’m not blown away by it. A beautiful bejeweled clutch would’ve been very welcome.

Li Bing Bing – 47th Golden Horse Film Awards

The 47th Golden Horse Film Awards was held in Taiwan recently.
Asian actress Li Bing Bing looked stunning as she walked the red carpet wearing a baby blue embellished one-shoulder gown.
The colour beautiful against her pale skin.
I would loved this look more had it been more fitted around the waist, but it’s a minor detail when the glam factor is so high with this look.
Piaget jewels and butterfly clutch complete the look.

Jennifer Lopez In Andrew Gn – 2010 Latin Grammy Awards

This is how I like my divas.

Sexy, hot, fierce and fearless.

Jennifer Lopez looked breath-taking at the 2010 Latin Grammy Awards last night which was held at the Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas.

Her hips did not lie in this stunning Andrew Gn keyhole gown.

I’m aching over how amazing she looks in this dusty rose star embellished gown with a contrasting beaded belt.

Lose the oddly place grey clutch and we have total perfection.

When she’s on fire she can shut any red carpet down.

Is this a BDOTW contender for you?

Sarah Jessica Parker In Elie Saab & Halston – 2010 Bambi Awards

Sarah Jessica Parker hosted the 2010 Bambi Awards in Germany last night.

She wowed the audience wearing an Elie Saab Fall 2010 gown.

The haunted forest print empire-line gown has a lace bodice with subtle sequin detailing.

It a gorgeous gown. She totally owns it.

If only the photographer had opted for a long shot.

SJP arrived on the red carpet wearing a shimmering Halston dress with bronze Nicholas Kirkwood heels and a Judith Leiber clutch.

I really love her belted asymmetrical dress, but I’m not a fan of her necklace with the dress. Necklaces and asymmetrical dresses together have never made sense to me.

I wasn’t fond of her final look.

The peasant-inspired look included a silver corset top with a multi-coloured voluminous skirt.

I think it looks really cheap compared to her other fabulous looks.

Camilla Belle In Carolina Herrera – 2010 Latin Grammy Awards

I wasn’t crazy about Carolina Herrera’s Spring 2011 collection, but I didn’t want to be too quick to write it off as I wanted to see how well it translated on the red carpet.

My answer is not too badly at all.

Last night at the 2010 Latin Grammy Awards, Camille Belle wore a Carolina Herrera Spring 2011 floral impressionist strapless gown with an olive green canvas belt which has ever-so slightly been modified from the runway.

The mix of colours is perfect for this event and her poise helps her carry off such a vibrant gown.

A Raven Kauffman Couture ‘Rita’ clutch and Cartier jewels completed her look.

I’m really surprised that I don’t hate it, but I would’ve preferred the runway belt.

2010 ARIA Awards

Australian musical talent was celebrated at the 2010 ARIA Awards in Sydney today, with a packed red carpet of Aussie beauties celebrating Australian designers.

Ruby Rose was the exception as she opted to wear a Miu Miu Fall 2010 dress.

This dress has been seen in nearly every editorial in every magazine all over the world, so I’m surprised that Ruby wore a dress most of us are tired of seeing.

I’m not a fan of tattoos, but I kinda like the rough and the smooth contrast of the rock-chick tattoos with a cute ultra feminine dress.

Lara Bingle worked a sleek modern chic look wearing a navy dress by Australian designer Josh Goot.

Her dress is beautiful but she loses many points for the grey suede pumps.

Jessica Mauboy grabbed the attention from the others on the red carpet wearing a Toni Maticevski structured pink dress.

The R&B singer teamed her flamboyant dress with Sergio Rossi nude heels.

Megan Washington received many nominations at this event, and she ensured she looked pretty to collect awards wearing a red lace dress by Australian designer Alex Perry.

I’m not crazy about the cream pumps, but her jewel encrusted clutch catches my eye.

Kelsey Martinovich – Australia’s Next Top Model Cycle 6 runner up – surely wanted to be noticed wearing a Paule Ka bustier dress which a sheer panel across the midriff.

I like her dress and her bravery for wearing such a bold look, but gloves make this look very costumey.

The “2010 ARIA Awards” will air on MTV Classic on Monday 8 November at 9pm.

Carey Mulligan In Preen – 2010 BAFTA Los Angeles Britannia Awards

When I saw Carey Mulligan on the red carpet at the 2010 BAFTA Los Angeles Britannia Awards I thought finally a youthful, fresh, interesting look.
Carey has long been dressing as if she’s much older, thus making it hard for many of us to relate to her or like her style.
Last night she became the first actress to wear a look from the recent Preen Spring 2011 collection.
I love this look.
I would even go as far as saying her stone textured beaded sleeveless top and black A line skirt look better on Carey than the model.
Does Carey read my blog?
Because she wore an electric blue pair of YSL Palais pumps when black pumps would’ve been the most obvious-safest choice.
Either way I’m liking this new direction.
Sleek hair and flawless make-up completed her look.

Marion Cotillard In Elie Saab – 2010 BAFTA Los Angeles Britannia Awards

The 2010 BAFTA Los Angeles Britannia Awards took place last night with many of our favourite stars hitting the red carpet.
As fashion lovers we are still in trying to get over Marion Cotillard’s previous red carpet look, but she made an improvement last night.
The French actress proved that it was a one-off by dazzling on the red carpet wearing an Elie Saab dress.
Her shimmering powder blue dress with a draped sleeve was paired with Carla Amorim jewels, black Jimmy Choo ‘Neptune’ sandals and a black clutch.
I like the dress, love the red lippie but I’m not fond of the accessories.
We know Marion’s can do better, but I do like how she showed off a bit of her personality with a quirky quiff updo.

Dakota Fanning In Valentino Couture – 2010 BAFTA Los Angeles Britannia Awards

Dakota Fanning went for a simple effortless look at the 2010 BAFTA Los Angeles Britannia Awards last night.
The young actress wore a romantic Valentino Fall 2010 Couture gown which surprisingly doesn’t overwhelm her.
Her blush strapless gown isn’t grand or over the top, it’s very appropriate for a young star like Dakota who doesn’t want to got the Miley Cyrus route on the red carpet.
My only problem with this look is her hair as it looks like she just rolled out of bed.
Dakota never really does much with her hair, so I think a new style is long overdue.
At this point I would get over excited about a ponytail.

Olivia Wilde In Michael Kors – 2010 BAFTA Los Angeles Britannia Awards

I was honestly blown away by Olivia Wilde at the 2010 BAFTA Los Angeles Britannia Awards, which was held at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza in LA last night.
Yes she’s wearing my least favourite red carpet colour, but she looked so elegant oozing class and sophistication.
The dress may be too informal for some because of the black cashmere top, but the long sweeping sequined skirt makes this look for me.
A chic updo, flawless neutral make-up and minimal accessories were the key to this stunning look.
I would’ve been tempted to over accessorize this look by adding statement jewelery, but all it needed was her Judith Leiber clutch.
Does anyone love this as much as I do?
