87th Academy Awards - Red Carpet

Our favourite looks from the 2015 Oscars...so many gorgeous celebs and gowns, these were our top 10!

Zoe's Atelier Versace blush pink gown is simple but elegant. A nice contrast between the fitted bodice and flowy skirt, and styled with just the right amount of frosting.

Love the colour and neckline of Anna's beautiful Thakoon Gown... She looks perfectly balanced, glowing in fact in youthful beauty.

Lupita's red carpet choice did not disappoint and on this night she looked divine! The custom Calvin Klein gown features a heavily embellished bodice, with reports saying over 6,000 natural pearls were used in the making of this dress (source: New York Times)!

Naomi, another Red Carpet favourite wore a stunning metallic piece by Armani, She looked stylishly chic in the glittery silver gown, complete with dark nails and lips. The construction of the dress was interesting in that there was a crop top element in the design (which we loved), very on-trend.

Emma sparkled in Elie Saab's lime green gown, and wore her gorgeous hair swept to the side in soft  romantic waves and bold red lips. The thigh-high split was a feature, as well as the super low back cut. Bombshell material right here!

Another gorgeous Zuhair Murad gown as worn by Anna on the night. Beautifully styled with relaxed soft waves and minimal accessories. We are massive fans of Zuhair Murad and will never get tired of big sparkly gowns that remind us of fairytales & princesses (in a very good way!).

Margo's deep plunge gown by Saint Laurent was simple and sleek. The vintage Van Cleef & Arpels necklace was perfection and complimented her outfit beautifully.

Rita's Marchesa gown could not be any more dramatic. She looked perfectly stunning. The mermaid gown was well fitted, elegant and sexy. Just love her style and her ability to amaze, always.

Jlo wore a breathtaking Elie Saab masterpiece. The perfect cut of the bodice, the exquisite embellishments and layers of tulle... this dress is magical to say the least.

Lady Gaga not only wowed the audience with her performance on the night, she made a grand entrance in a statement gown by Azzadine Alaia. Complete with red gloves, this gown is everything...

Love seeing what celebs are wearing on the Red Carpet, and the 66th Primetime Emmys did not dissapoint! These are a few of my favourites from the night, you can see the whole coverage at Style.

Sophia Vergara looks like a goddess in this structured Roberto Cavalli gown. I especially love the mermaid skirt and lines on the bodice. Her trademark hourglass shape is accentuated well by the flawless fit.

Lookbook: Romance Goddess




"When in love, she loves passionately, deeply and wholly. Each touch, each kiss and affectionate gesture from her lover, she returns with a hundred times more intensity. She lives in the moment, for the love, soaking it in like the warm autumn sun. She doesn't forget to enjoy the simple things in life, all that we take for granted. Romance is beautiful, is key, and is what she lives for."

Ulyana Sergeenko - Spring 2014 Couture

Ulyana Sergeenko designed a gorgeous couture collection that evokes feelings of an old-time romance, sensual and elegant with a dramatic flair. 

“It’s a glamorous woman taking a voyage through the Eastern republics of the former Soviet Union" The Russian couturier explains. Inspirations were taken from a train trip, with destinations that included Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. Ulyana tells a story through her exquisite collection and translates the adventures of a femme fatale. 

Detailing was greatly emphasized and close-up you could see the intricate details and careful craftsmanship for each piece. The collection featured luxurious silk satins, hourglass corsets with very defined sweetheart necklines, hand-painted fringing, some layering and silk embroidery. The accessories fit the theme with colourful vintage-feel trunks and bed-roll clutches with flower embroideries and tassels. All the models wore peep-hole pumps and looked sultry and sophisticated. 

Below are my favourite looks from the collection, be sure to check her work out, links below.

2014 Golden Globe Awards - Red Carpet Looks

Red Carpet looks at the 2014 Golden Globes


Cate Blanchett looks stunning in this Armani Lace Gown. I am always a fan of french lace garments, especially those with black lace over nude lining. The look is timeless, and never really goes out of style. The sheer look is very on trend, and seem to be a popular choice for cocktail gowns and wedding dresses this year.

The sweetheart neckline is always a winner, and can be worn with any body type. Kate Beckinsale in Zuhair Murad's figure-hugging chrome mermaid gown is another favorite. The dress is so well fitted with the right amount of sparkle, she looks perfectly glamorous.

Sofia is usually seen in fitted mermaid dresses but has chosen a voluminous outfit for this event. I love how she adds a splash of colour using a standout statement necklace, her overall look is simple yet beautifully dramatic.

The striking Versace gown as worn by Amber Heard looks goddess-like with the perfect split.

Olivia Wilde looks amazing in this Gucci figure-hugging gown, showing off her baby bump in emerald sequins and lightly tousled hair.

I do like the metallic print in Andrew Gn's gown worn by Julianna Margulies. She has kept the focus being on the gown itself with her hair up and accessories to a minimum, nicely done.

Kaley Cuoco looks sweet in this Rani Zakhem's floral print corset gown. There is something so romantic and fairytale-like about this look that I keep coming back to it.

Anna Gunn's gown by Donna Karen features a fabulously draped train. I love the low back style and the dreamy look.

Red seems to be a standout choice for the red carpet. Lauren Parsekian looks like an absolute bombshell in this v-cut Burberry mermaid gown with mid-split, perfectly teamed with nude lips.

Emma Watson's interesting Dior half-dress looks plain and almost drab at first glance, however the back of the dress is anything but. Completely open revealing her bare back and the black pants she wore underneath, this outfit is a daring and bold choice.
