…often desired

k is for kanye

I adore Kanye West.

I don’t care if he’s arrogant and mean to Taylor Swift.
He’s so frickin’ talented; miles ahead of the game in his music and his style…
His style, oh lord, his style is just super cool, manly perfection!

This is what I’m talking about…

inspired fashion | Marchesa Fall 2013

Deep maroons, intense noir, crisp white & icy greys. Decadently baroque.
If Anna Karenina was alive today, she’d be front & centre at Marchesa’s Fall Runway Collection. 

best of oscars fashion | 2013

I was a little surprised with some of the fashion choices (what were you thinking Anne Hathaway?) but these are my favourites…

BEST DRESSED: Charlize Theron in Dior Couture

BEST DRESSED: Charlize Theron in Dior Couture

Charlize Theron is on this earth to remind the rest of us that there really is a God. And Charlize is her masterpiece.

My friend Tam was fortunate enough to be watching the live coverage (I was at work. boo.) and texted me and said Charlize was definitely the best dressed – I agree but with a caveat….she shares best dressed with…..

BEST DRESSED: Naomi Watts in Armani Prive

BEST DRESSED: Naomi Watts in Armani Prive

Jay & I watched The Impossible over the weekend and she deserved this nomination. I would go so far to say that she deserved it more than Jennifer Lawrence. Naomi’s performance was stellar and her dress is celestially perfect.

And for the runners up:

Jessica Chastain in Armani Prive

Old world Hollywood glamour. Jessica Chastain’s career trajectory is only matched by her fashion choices.

Stacy Keibler in Naeem Khan

OMG. Glamorous warrior goddess!

Jennifer Garner in

Jennifer Garner in Gucci

Obsessed with this colour. This is simple and stunning. I love Jennifer Garner.

Jennifer Hudson in Roberto Cavalli

Boom! Sexy is back! Love this colour and the fit is perfect.

Zoe Saldana in Alexis Mabille Couture

Zoe Saldana in Alexis Mabille Couture

Love the dress, don’t love the shoe. Zoe is always a little cutting edge with her fashion choices and the way the white graduates with layers of grey and black is gorgeous.

Olivia Munn in Marchesa

Olivia Munn in Marchesa

I’ve been obsessing over the newest Marchesa collection and to see it on a Olivia Munn is perfection!

Reese Witherspoon in Louis Vuitton

Reese Witherspoon in Louis Vuitton

Can you believe this woman just had a baby? She looks amazing and she’s transcendent in head to toe Louis Vuitton.

That’s it for awards season for while….How will we ever survive?!!!

beige ≠ boring

She’s been heralded and criticized for being a “plus size” model.
She’s 6ft 2in! She’s a size 16 (UK+AUS) / 12 (US).
Whatever her measurements, she is a total glamazon and she looks amazing in clothes, which is the prerequisite for a model. And her work speaks volumes; campaigns for Ralph Lauren, Australian Vogue/Cosmo/Marie Claire/Madison, Italian Vogue, French Elle, US Glamour,
I think she’s an inspiration that healthy & beautiful
doesn’t have to equate to skinny.

Nothing says summer celebration than a hint of sparkly sequin!
What better way to celebrate than under a balmy starry Sydney sky on our beautiful harbour wearing this inspired outfit!

the ever evolving fashion choices of Kristen Stewart

She may have started off as an impetuous teenager with questionable fashion choices but this year K.Stew has opened the door to fashion (or hired a stylist).

The Twilight saga is over. Let’s pause for a sentimental moment.

OK. With that done, here are my fave red carpet looks.
