Sexy Heels and Baywatch Poses

Amanda Seyfried is the latest Teen Vogue cover girl, and my does she look good posing in those Miu Miu S/S 2010 heels...



I actually tried these shoes on last week and they are easily the nicest things that have ever been on my feet. Not only are they a gorgeous shape but they're so much fun too.
Amanda also posed in a polka-dot-red-one-piece, which is pretty demure - but her pose is less so. When did Teen Vogue get so sultry? It looks like a more fashion-forward Baywatch scene.


Not that I'm hating on it or anything, I just think it's quite amusing. I used to love watching Baywatch when I was a little kid, I'm not so sure why. I also loved a Spanish soap opera called Eldorado. I had very peculiar taste.
Teen Vogue obviously has much more vision than Baywatch, and they've styled the red-one-piece up beautifully. And Amanda was photographed by Patrick Demarchelier which is another reason to love Teen Vogue. What other teen magazine gets Patrick to shoot their cover? I'm not a teen anymore but Teen Vogue still impresses me.

The June/July issue of Teen Vogue hit's US newstands on May 25th. What do you think of Amanda's Teen Vogue look? Love it or hate it?

Hit and Miss of the Week: Back-to-Front

This was the week that Amanda Seyfried wore a Bodyamr dress back-to-front on the red carpet. Luckily for her the back of the dress was a lovely colour, so it didn't look too bad, but it was still a rather embarrassing fashion mistake. If it was a mistake, that is.
And it wasn't just Amanda slipping up with her wardrobe this week; Katy Perry wore an unflattering Vuitton S/S piece to Coachella, and Kylie was spotted in some rather ill-fitting mustard yellow trousers.
But let's look on the bight side instead. Jessica Simpson looked fabulous in a Stella McCarntney dress, Demi Moore rocked a sexy little purple number when visiting Letterman, and J-Lo (is it wrong to still call her J-Lo?) made many appearances - some good, some bad - this week.

Amanda Wears the Isa Dress

Everytime I go on Net-A-Porter to dream shop I always turn to Roland Mouret's Isa dress. I adore the shape and the colour, and if, for some magical reason, I could really shop at Net-A-Porter the Isa would be at the top of my shopping list.
Because of it's bright colour, sexy shape, and, of course, the fact it's RM by Roland Mouret, I knew it would end up on the red carpet. I just wasn't sure who would be the first to wear it. I was hoping it would be one of my red carpet top three - Diane, Thandie or Zoe - but it actually went to Amanda Seyfried.



She wore it to the premiere of Chloe, last night. I think she did a good job (obviously Diane/Thandie/Zoe would have worn it better, though) and is showing she has some fashion-know-how. Especially after her fabulous appearance at the Oscars.
I wonder if she'll get an invite to the Met Gala this year? She was recently in Vogue so you never know...
Do you think she deserves at Met invite? And what do you think of her style?

Also, the Isa would look fab on Dakota Fanning too, don't you think?

The Oscars 2010

The red carpet at the Oscars last was definitely an interesting one. There were lots of dresses that I really didn't like, and a lot that blended into the background. But there were some red carpet moments that were so beautiful (Zoe Saldana, Cameron Diaz and Amanda Seyfried) that I didn't mind the average looks. Because it just made the Zoe's, Cameron's, and Amanda's of the world stand out even more.


Zoe Saldana in Givenchy Couture
In January I wrote that this dress was perfect for the Oscars. Diane Kruger was my first choice but I also suggested Zoe, and as fate would have it... This is easily my favourite look of the night. She looks stunning.


Amanda Seyfried in Armani Privé
I think Amanda looks fantastic in this dress, her best red carpet moment to date. But she wasn't actually up for an award, and this is perhaps a little bit to OTT, therefore. Either way she wore it perfectly, and it's sure to be in every best dressed list.


Diane Kruger in Chanel HC & Cameron Diaz in Oscar de la Renta
I don't think Diane was at her absolute red carpet best last night (when she really brings it you don't even notice anyone else) but again, it's a faultless look. And Cameron Diaz is up there with Zoe when it comes to my favourite dresses of the night. The Oscar de la Renta dress looked like it was made for her, and it was a lovely surprise too - I don't normally put Cameron down as a full-skirt kinda girl.


Carey Mulligan in Prada & Kristen Stewart in Monique Lhuillier
I'm very disappointed that Carey went for a black dress, I wanted to see her in colour. But she did look very sweet, so I'll let her off. Kristen made up for the dodgy trousers of last week in this dramatic number. That fact that it's a little gothic anyway makes her moody face less obvious.


Meryl Streep in Chris March & Maggie Gyllenhaal in Dries Van Noten
Everyone loves Meryl, and it was nice to see a sleeve on the red carpet last night. Nice zebra-print bangle too. And I have a feeling some people will hate Maggie's printed dress, it isn't exactly your regular Oscar dress. But I love the fact she's always willing to experiment.


Demi Moore in Versace Atelier & Sarah Jessica Parker in Chanel HC
I wasn't so keen on Demi in Versace at first, but it is starting to grow on me. And I also disliked SJP in Chanel, but I now totally adore it. It works better with her personality than the Versace does with Demi's.

And you've probably noticed that Sandra Bullock is not in the post. I'm so so so happy she won (not that I've seen the film) the award, but I wasn't into her dress at all. She looked much better at the Golden Globes and SAG Awards I think. I was also confused by Jennifer Lopez, Penelope Cruz and Tina Fey. And I'm going up and down on Charlize Theron's Dior dress - I admire her for wearing it but I just don't think I like it.
Scarily I also thought Miley Cyrus looked good, but I could not bring myself to include her in the annual Oscar post...

Which dresses were you loving last night?

And isn't it lovely that a woman won Best Director for the first time ever?
UPDATE: I've just seen Sandra on TV and the dress is a lot better in motion than images actually.

Hit and Miss of the Week: Stylish Australians

I know that I have quite a lot of lovely Australian readers, and it's very rare that I actually look at Australian fashion. This week I'm focusing on you guys. There are three stylish Australian women in this weeks post (and no, none of them are Kylie), and one is even wearing Aussie designer Josh Goot.
There's a lot we can learn from these Australian women, who all welcome bright colour (check out Abbie Cornish's hot pink coat). And then there are the Hollywood girls, who as always have been hitting the red carpets. Beyonce has had a very busy week. As always let me know what you thought of the week's looks in the comments section.
