OSCARS 2013: The Best of Beauty

The Oscars put together in one how we should be wearing our make up this season. Think perfected skin, smokey eyes, natural looks and pink lips!
 
 
Anne Hathaway
Although Anne didnt make it on to my best dressed list, she made it top of the beauty!
 
 
Jessica Chastain
Hollywood glamour comes naturally to Jessica, she kept with her signature red lip but always looks flawless!
 
 
Naomie Harris
Although Naomie hit my worst dressed list, you cant fault her amazing hair and make up!
 
 
Amanda Seyfried
Amanda is on this list simply for that gorgrous hair! Oh and her gorgeous make up...
 
 
Jennifer Garner
I love Jennifers soft and subtle smokey eye.
 
 

 
 

OSCARS 2013: My Best Dressed List

So after an array of awful gowns, here are my pick of the best dressed at the Oscars:
 
 
Jessica Chastain
Looking gorgeous, Jessica is the epitome of Hollywood glamour. I love her porcelain skin against the nude dress.
 
 
Amy Adams
Love Amy's style anyway but she was a knockout at last nights Oscars.
 
 
Kelly Osbourne in Tony Ward
Kelly looks great all the time but she is making a name for herself on the red carpet. After the Golden Globes I didn't think she could get any better, but she did.
 
 
Sandra Bullock
Elie Saab dressed Sandra to perfection, she just looks so 'complete' if that makes sense?
 
 
Reese Witherspoon
Colbalt blue is obvioustly Reeses colour because she is simply glowing!
 
 
Jennifer Lawrence
Miss Dior has connections at the House of Dior, no suprise there. They dressed her in this incredible puff ball gown which only highlights JL's fantastic figure.
 
 
Amanda Seyfried
Looking incredible in our very own Alexander McQueen... she looks fiesty!
 
 
Adele
Some people suggest Adele should stop wearing black but I think she looks gorgeous in this Jenny Packham gown and because I am biast she wins my best dressed award!

How to: Make a midi look fierce

Midi dresses are certainly having a moment, something I am embracing considering they flatter a hourglass figure and chunky legs. However, upon buying my jewel green Topshop number I had a dilemma; if I wore it with nude heels then I looked like the brides mother... so how should I style it up? Here's what I am thinking, but please give me more suggestions...
 
 

The Brit Awards: My Best Dressed List

After those fashion fails, I review the girls who got it right on the night...
 
 
Jessie J
Looking incredible in this sexy black number. I love Jessie's new feminine style and she looks gorgeous in this plunging gown, one thing I would change however, are the shoes.
 
 
Jourdan Dunn in Balmain
Unfair to put Jourdan on my best dressed list simply because she is a supermodel therefore would look great in a bin bag. The yellow looks beautiful on her skintone and
kept simple with her hair and make up.
 
 
Laura Whitmore
Laura looked lovely while presenting the Brits backstage, her dress was youthful and rocking the Spring summer metalic trends. Good work Laura!
 
 
Paloma Faith in Dolce and Gabbana
Looking beautifully regal in this D&G dress, Paloma looked glowing but still quirky. Well done P!
 
 
Aluna Francis
Perhaps the best dressed of the night? Rocking two trends: sheer and metallic, Aluna looks fantastic.
 
 
I would love to hear your opinions on the Brit awards fashion, who do you think looked the best/worst and if you would change any of their accessories?
