Kristen Stewart in Balmain - 'Snow White and the Huntsman' Sydney Premiere

The 'Snow White and the Huntsman' premiere trail continues.

Kristen Stewart stepped out for the movie's premiere in Sydney, Australia today looking spectacular.  She wore a strapless, bottle green Balmain Fall 2012 dress with intricate beading.

Kristen looks great in dresses that are fitted and have longer hemlines - she wore a dress with those speciifcations for the movie's Berlin photocall and I was impressed then too.


This ornate dress was worn with a messy updo, smokey eyes, pink lips and grey Louboutin pumps with crystals.  

This has to be one of my favourite looks from Kristen, ever.

Diane Kruger in Balmain - 'Le Grand Journal' Appearance

Diane Kruger appeared on the television show 'Le Grand Journal' on Thursday in head-to-toe Balmain.

The Cannes jury member was dressed in a pale wash chambray top with gold buttons from the Spring 2012 collection and a leather mini skirt from the Resort 2012 collection, accessory included the studded belt.


A ponytail, fresh make-up and leather peep-toe boots completed her look.

Elizabeth Olsen In Balmain - 'Silent House' NYC Premiere

Elizabeth Olsen attended the NYC premiere of her new thriller 'Silent House' yesterday.

She wore a black, full-sleeved matte jersey maxi, topped with a gold embellished jacket - all from the Balmain Spring 2012 collection.

 While I like the dress and the jacket, I don't like them together as they create a look that's once again, aging on the young actress.  I would have loved to see her pair this flowing yet structured jacket with some sleek pants instead. 

She accessorised with a pale blue clutch by The Row, and Cesare Paciotti heels.


 I feel like Elizabeth is still finding her ground, fashion-wise and looks like she's getting inspired by her older twin sisters.  I could see Ashley pulling off this look with ease, but it doesn't work on Elizabeth.

Fashion Roundup

Gwyneth Paltrow attended the Women in Film Pre-Oscars event in a jumpsuit by Band of Outsiders that had tuxedo-like lapels and a plunging neckline.  Her favourite Loree Rodkin necklace, and Jimmy Choo peep-toes completed the look.

Selena Gomez also attended the event in a dress by Ani Lee that had a bustier top and a skirt.  There's just something costume-y about this dress no? She looks like she's just jumped off the set of some Disney fairy movie.


Katy Perry is currently in the City of Lights as she attends shows during Paris Fashion Week.

For a lunch, Katy wore a Vera Wang Spring 2012 dress in a pale blue and paired it with a pink bag and nude sandals - it feels like a mismatch of things but at least the colours are pretty.

Then in the evening, she wore a Balmain mini dress with the signature markings of the label's dresses.  

By now you must know how much I detest her blue hair.


Kate Middleton did a charity event in a bright Missoni coat, which she wore with suede Rupert Sanderson pumps.  I love the addition of the bright daffodils.

Carrie Underwood wore an iridescent Oscar de la Renta Spring 2012 gown to an event.  Love this dress on her, but the hair-do feels too pageant-y.

Zoe Saldana In Balmain - 2012 Independent Spirit Awards

Zoe Saldana walked the purple carpet at the 2012 Independent Spirit Awards looking mighty fine in a Balmain Spring 2012 mini.

The floral dress with three-quarter sleeves also features an open back.

Zoe wore her hair in waves and completed the look with nude, ankle-strap Brian Atwood pumps which actually elongate her legs.

Fashion Roundup

Katy Perry attended the Grammy nominations event in a lacy pink Dolce & Gabbana strapless column gown but her pink hair just killed the look that could have worked well.

Amber Heard was at the Bahamas Film Festival, also wearing a summery Dolce & Gabbana dress.  The white dress with a nude coloured belt was matched with her peeptoes.


Angie Harmon wore a shimmery Jean Fares couture dress to the Snowflake Ball in NYC.  This dress is very socialite-esque (think Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian) and just does not suit Angie.

Alessandra Ambrosio wore a plunge-neck Balmain mini to the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show viewing party.  As hot as she looks, the hair & accessories are just falling flat.


Jessica Alba looked super stylish wearing straight-leg red jeans by Kate Spade New York while on a coffee run in LA, with a white tee, black blazer, gold necklace and black boots.

Jessica Biel stepped out in London wearing orange separates with a blue coat and blue caged heels.  As much as I love the bright colours, the orange on orange just makes me think of prison.

Fashion Roundup

Jennifer Lopez changed into a silver Emilio Pucci mini with full sleeves, at the AMA after party - legs!

Gemma Arterton attended an awards night in London, in a studded Balmain top, leather bottoms & a Viktor & Rolf tuxedo jacket.  The clutch matched the top, way to make a statement.


Heidi Klum launched her jewellery line at a Beverley Hills hotel wearing a crisp white button-down with an animal-print pencil skirt and patterned heels.

Sofia Vergara wore a Roberto Cavalli mini at a party, with gold accessories.  I wish she'd not carried that clutch, it's an awkward size.


Miranda Kerr walked around NYC looking super chic in leather pants, a grey peacoat worn with a printed scarf.  She wore comfy black flats and carried her favourite burgundy Celine tote.

Gisele Bundchen promoted a shampoo line in Brazil wearing a white sheath, with a black jacket and pumps - her hair was the centre of attraction, which was appropriate seeing she was promoting a shampoo brand.

Leighton Meester In Balmain - 'Gossip Girl' Celebrates 100 Episodes

Leighton Meester wore a Balmain mini, for the 'Gossip Girl' celebrates 100 episodes party held in NYC.

The white, strapless dress with clasps, a middle panel and asymmetrical hemline looked lovely on Leighton, but seemed a little tight around the bust.

Slightly messy hair, glowing make-up & fabulous Jimmy Choos completed her look.

Leighton continues to be the shoe queen of the red carpet!

Fashion Roundup

Drew Barrymore attended the MoMa Film Benefit wearing a feather-print maxi by Chanel, topped with a bolero jacket.  A simple hairstyle, red lips & a chain-strap bags were the finishing touches.

Amy Adams kept things classy at a book launch, in a metallic, ruched sheath by Dolce & Gabbana - worn with an updo, bright lips and caramel pumps.


Zooey Deschanel worked her quirky vibe, in a vintage dress at the GQ Men Of The Year party, which she wore with sparkly Miu Miu pumps, and her signature tights of course.

Nikki Reed wore a bright yellow Jenni Kayne shirt-dress for the launch of her cover with Seventeen magazine.  She kept things laid back with wavy hair and neutral pumps.



Freida Pinto attended a L'Oreal event in Paris, wearing a rich gold Ralph Lauren dress, worn with a Balmain jacket.  Black flats and an updo completed her chic evening look.

Shailene Woodley wore a floral, sweetheart Dolce & Gabbana frock for the premiere of 'The Descendants' along with satin pumps & a messy updo.

Captain America: The First Avenger Premiere

Zoe Saldana totally worked the short-suit trend on the red carpet, for the premiere of the movie "Captain America: The First Avenger".

Her Balmain suit that she wore with a v-neck, is fun and summery and so are those studded Brian Atwoods!

Vanessa Hudgens debuted a short crop, which in her own words makes her look like a "soccer mom".

She tried to look glam by putting on a low-cut, sparkly tunic by Farah Khan but those suede Guiseppe Zanotti heels killed the look for me.

Potter in New York

Potter has landed in NYC.

I had to include this top picture of Rupert Grint, Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson and while Daniel looks like a little kid in a candy shop, it was nice to see a final red carpet shot from the trio.


Emma Watson brought surprise to the premiere, by wearing this Bottega Veneta gown.

At first glance, I wasn't quite impressed but the more that I look at it, the more I'm growing to like it. The linen bodice and amber coloured satin skirt combine to create quite an outrageous, yet gorgeous dress!

The slick back hair is okay, but I wish she'd not gone so raccoon-eye with her make up.


Sarah Jessica Parker kept it subtle in this watercolour-print Oscar de la Renta dress, topping it with a fail-safe black blazer.

Newly-married America Ferrera was also there, wearing a tassled dress with interesting heels.



Emma also did a talk show appearance, in a glittering Balmain mini. Again, this was unexpected from her (I would normally expect Kristen Stewart in this) but I like that she went all edgy in NYC!

Glamour Awards 2011

Rosie Huntintdon Whiteley, Kristen Stewart and Kim Kardashian all made the guest list at this year's Glamour Awards, held in London.

Rosie went softer with her look, compare
d to the MTV Awards night, in a blush silk Stella McCartney dress with a leg slit, some pointy nude Louboutins and an embellished silver clutch.

Kristen too tone
d down her look, albeit still sticking to Balmain, in a pale, printed strapless mini which she wore with Guiseppe Zannoti peeptoes. The hair and make up while boring, was perfect nonetheless.

Kim Kardashian wore a signature, fitted gown - this time by Dolce & Gabbana. She changed up the hair though, in a low bun and wore some eye-catching earrings by Lorraine Schwartz, with matching stacked bangles.
