The LBD gone sequin Crazy!


The classic Little Black Dress, has gone sequin crazy as of late and it's a great thing! Designers such as Chanel and Oscar De La Renta have added shimmer and shine to an otherwise simple dress.


Sequines make these short summer-night dress' a lot more glamorous, and are definitely grabbing fans across Hollywood from the likes of celebrity off-spring Rumer Willis to regular rehab visitor Lindsay Lohan!

Nicole Richie in Tom Ford Anouk


If you're going to follow someones lead when it comes to choosing the most fashion forward sunglasses, look no furthur than Nicole Richie. Miss Richie is crazy crazy crazy about her sunglasses, and has recently chosen to wear the gorgeous Tom Ford Anouk TF 57 sunglasses.


The cat eye look will definitely make a comeback over the next few years thanks to this fabulous creation by Tom Ford and with celebs like Nicole Richie wearing them they are sure to sell out fast, so snap them up while you can...they are worth every penny.

Anyways if you like them, you can buy them online at eLuxury for $300 or Bloomingdales.

Paris Hilton at Kitson


Paris Hilton was at Kitson during the week with fans to help raise funds for charity, with 20% of proceedings going to her current favourite children's charity.


I can't help but admire how sweet Paris has been looking of late. She looked very glamourous with her oversized sunglasses, super-long blonde extensions and GET THIS> she was wearing a dress from her own collection, and i must say i really like it. The length, the color and the coin-like effect it presents.


All in all, it still looks like she has alot of fans with a massive crowd swooning around her as soon as she exited her car!

Angelina Loves her Dolce and Gabanna Sunglass'


Angelina Jolie is undoubtedly one of the world most stylish and beautiful women, but one thing she isn't is a fashion victim.


This can be seen in her ability to stick to her own personal style, without a stylist and wear a pair of signature designer sunnies all summer long, without having the need for a whole wardrobe's worth unlike Hollywood's young starlet's like Lindsay Lohan.


I'm really loving her Dolce and Gabbana 6006B sunglasses which are oversized, black, with a subtle DG logo which are charateristics of a timeless pair of sunglasses.


If you love them, they can be purchased on otticanet with prices ranging from $211-$223 depending on the color you choose.

Paris Hilton in gold one-piece


Paris Hilton really embraces trends doesn't she? Well who can blame her when she looks this good in a one piece cut-out swimsuit, beaded wrap, gold necklace and gold aviators. She looked much the heiress at a party held at her Malibu home during the weekend.


And i think she might actually be getting a maternal side, after hearing news of BFF Nicole Richie's Pregnancy.

Juliette Lewis in red Latex pants


Hmmm, the V Festival held in England this week brought with it many creative and out-there outfits...some good, some not so good. But there's one outfit that i don't know whether i like or hate.


Celeb Juliette Lewis, decided to let loose and wear a hot new trend-Latex leggings. But I'm not sure if I'm into Bright red Latex. She teamed the pants with a black vest, headband and ankle boots. Perhaps it just looks a little crazy due to the fact that she's standing next a surprisingly refined and polished looking Kelly Osborne in all black.


I don't think I'll be wearing red latex leggings anytime soon, but props to Juliette for trying something new.

Celebs swiming in underwear WTF?


I don't get this, why do celebs think it's ok to go out swimming in their underwear?!? Us mere mortals don't find the need to do it, so what makes them think it's fine.


Swimsuits were designed to go swimming in and I'm sure they can afford to get themselves pair or two-hundred, but it seems like the likes of Britney Spears and Michelle Rodriguez don't mind swimming in their panties in the middle of the day, while in the end they're just going to get mocked for it.


I suggest they find some cute little swimming suits to avoid themselves the embarrassment the next time their followed around by a hoard of paparazzi!

Big Bags are hotter than ever



Big bags don't seem to be going out of fashion anytime soon, with more and more designers such as Yves Saint Laurent, Fendi, Prada and Chanel creating bags big enough to fit the person holding it inside.


Let's face it, big bags are great! They fit everything you need (and don't need) in, while keeping you hands free and stylish. I'm absolutely loving Ashley Olsen's Vintage Fendi bag and Eva Longoria's snakeskin Prada bag. If they keep making them, i'll keep wearing them, the bigger the better right?

Hayden Panettiere's outfit


Wow i'm really not feeling 17 year old Hayden Panettiere's outfit in these photos. The Heroe's star, was out shopping this week in a powder blue dress that draped loosely over her body, which was more comfotable than flattering.


She teamed them with nice white accessories such as peep-toe shoes and bag...BUT don't even get me started on her sunglasses! WTF were did she get them. I get the fact that 80's inspired sunglasses are so hip now, these white frames with orange mirrored lenses look like something you would find at my local $2 shop or at a dress up party.


I think she's trying to be sophisticated and funky at the same time, but i'm just not digging it.

WAG: Colleen McLoughlin Look


Since Victoria Beckham's departure to L.A, Soccer Star Wayne Rooney's Fiancee, Colleen McLoughlin has become England's current top WAG (Wives AND Girlfriends). I just noticed her outfit that was taken this week out and about in Liverpool, England.


It must not be that hot in England at the moment considering the fact that she's sporting one of winter's must have items, a leather jacket, and i like how she's still sporting a skull scarf. Although most of you think the skull scarf is so overdone (thanks to Nicole Richie and crew), i admire the fact that she wears what she wants when she wants without tossing out purchases at the season's end.


I am also beginning to see more and more celebrities beginning to wear looser fitting jeans from the knee down, which might spark a new more comfortable style when it comes to jeans. And finally shes wearing a pair of espadrilles/wedges, which are a glamorous and need i say more appropriate day time shoe as opposed to Stilettos, take note Miss Beckham.

Eva Longoria's maxi dress


The Maxi dress trend is becoming more popular as the season continues. This time Eva Longoria has been spotted wearing a gorgeous colorful maxi dress that's perfect for summer, coupled with her Prada bag and a pair of large shades. I just think she looks fantastic.

Loving Tom Ford's Hawkings Shades


OK my current sunglass crush is Tom Ford's Hawkings sunglasses. When i was on holiday's in Oslo Norway, i first set my eyes on these beauties. I tried them on at a Optical store and fell in love with them immediately, but they didn't have them in black which i really wanted and well i didn't have a spare $500 lying around either at the time.


However, theses are the type of sunglasses that people love or hate - my boyfriend hates them, and i love them. And now i am all excited about them again when i spotted my favourite Olsen, Ashley wearing them. Perhaps i will start saving to get myself a pair, and in the time i save i can decide whether i still want them or whether something else has caught my eye.


These Aviator style sunglasses are made for both men and women so If you love them, you can purchase a pair online at Eyesave or online at Neiman Marcus for around $450 to $500.

Peaches Geldof Heart shaped sunglasses!


Many celebrities seem to be experimenting with unique sunglass styles and colors of late. First their were wayfarer's, then colored wayfarer's, then Chanel two-toned sunglasses and now Peaches Geldof has chanelled her inner child while sunbaking on the beach, by wearing cute heart shaped in baby blue.


Believe it or not, this style was actually inspired by the runways of 2006, with Moschino and Luella being the main culprits who sparked this new venture into sunglass lala land. It's defintely not a style i would wear (unless for a dress up party), but it is rather cute.

Angelina Jolie knows Black is ALWAYS the new black


Angelina Jolie knows that black is always the new black, which can be seen her countless amount of outfits she has worn over the month's all predominately black. You can't really go wrong with black, it's simple to wear, stylish, sophisticated, grown up, fuss free and can be worn over and over again without becoming tiring.


All she needs to look great is a complete black ensemble, a cool pair of shades and that gorgeous smile.

Printed Dresses


It seems that many celebs are moving away from monochrome and brightening up their summer wardbrobes with feminine summer dresses. i particulary like Katherine Mcphee's bright missoni/missoni inspired dress, while Mischa Barton's dress encompasses her true eclectic style.


A black and white print dress like the one worn by Prince William's ex-girlfriend Kate Middleton would work well layered up during the colder season's.


Although Victoria Beckham's style doesn't seem to have much variation, i think her dress and accessories compliment each other very well, i suppose it doesn't hurt to have a wardbrobe full of Herme's bags in different colors.
