Driving Miss Daisy

...and now that's how it's done.Kate Moss nails the whole 60's sexed up housewife routine.Priscilla Presley would be proud!

Amazing Grace



I recently saw the documentary 'The September Issue'(which does little to dispell Anna Wintour's ice queen image) and almost instataneously fell in love with fashion's most famous red head-Grace Coddington(ex- model and creative director for American Vogue).Her zest for life and unflinching dedication to her work-reinvigorated me and instilled in me a new found love for the wonderfully indulgent world of fashion(yes,sometimes I can get terribly cheesy)

These images kind of remind me of Grace(the fiery red hair might have something to do with it).



Takes the phrase 'bee stung lips' to a whole new level,eh?




















These images are from an editorial titled 'The Devil Wears Anna' in 'Candy' magazine.I think it's hillarious.And incase you did'nt notice,those are drag queens dressed up as Anna Wintour,Grace Coddington and Tavi Gevinson.

What were they thinking?(Golden Globes Edition)

...well obviously they were'nt,what else would explain these disastrous sartorial choices at the 2011 Golden Globes.



Ermm,is this an attempt to promote the Green Hornet and Green Lantern movies?the dress is not bad per say,but not loving it on Angie(for once the usually effervescent Ms. Jolie had no one turning 'green' with envy)



The picture speaks for itself.Mrs. Warren Beatty(Annete Benning) just because you're a certain age does not mean you can get away with wearing,uhmm whatever it is that you were wearing.Take a page out of Dame Helen's (Mirren) book,and dress better!



Firstly,the length of this pink Lanvin concoction is all wrong,it should've ended at the knees.Secondly it most certainly is'nt the right dress for the gorgeous Julianne Moore.It makes her look like a frumpy mess,and the colour clashes with her raven hair.



Leighton Meester looks matronly in this Burberry Prorsum gown.From the hair to the bag,she gets it all wrong.



On her big night(she won best actress drama for 'Black Swan'),Natalie Portman looked nice inspite of her dress.After months of wearing Dior and Rodarte' while promoting 'Black Swan',this surrealistic Victor and Rolf gown was clearly not the right choice.Maybe her stylist thought the rose would take the attention away from her belly?

Best Dressed: Golden Globes 2011

Sandra Bullock looks lovely(and years younger) in this pale pink Jenny Packham number.Also,is it just me or does she look a lot like Rachel Bilson here?













Anne Hathaway looks like a bonafide glamazon in this shimmery Armani Prive' gown(which in my opinion seems a bit inspired by Balmain,notice the power shoulders?)













Eva Longoria has the whole old Hollywood thing down pat in Zac Posen.















Halle Berry looks smoking in this lingerie inspired Nina Ricci dress.WOW, a break-up does really do a body good!











While i'm not a fan of her flowy Valentino gown,Michelle Williams seems to have nailed the whole breezy 70's flower child vibe that seems to be dominating runways this season(Mia Farrow would be proud).















While i'm not too sure about this cut-out Versace number,January Jones does complete justice to it and how.Though this dress is probably meant for somebody not as well endowed as ms. Jones,ahem.
