We’ve been a little bit disappointed with this year’s events. Not because of the lack of elegance or glam but because nearly all the celebrities that attend them look so damn nice and this means we rarely get a chance to have a little jibe at the “worst dressed”.
Last night’s TV Baftas also followed this trend with many celebs looking stunning on the red carpet. However, it was Helena Bonham-Carter who stood out for all the wrong reasons.
The actress who we usually admire for her kooky and creative clothing went that step too far teaming up a red taffeta dress with a pirate hat and netted headpiece, which screamed tack. This might not have been so bad had Helena not chosen to wear her sunnies which really made the outfit a complete mismatch.
Helena we love your normal kooky style but this time you just went that little bit too far.
Oh dear, there’s putting your foot in it and then there’s just being rude, and we’re really sorry Kristen fans but we think Ms Stewart is definitely the latter here.
The actress who plays Bella in the Twilight series isn’t very happy about her fame comparing paparazzi pics of herself to “watching someone being raped.”
She’s also not too keen on her fans. Talking about all the attention, she was quoted by Showbiz Spy as saying: “It’s so weird, that you have to be worried about people seeing things.
“You want to be excited about something, normal people can be excited about their lives, and I am, too, but it’s such a different thing. It comes out as entertainment for other people and that makes me want to throw up.”
Hmmm Kristen if we had so much going for us we wouldn’t be complaining. We hope R-Patz doesn’t feel the same way.
We’ve already picked Rachel as our winner for the red carpet best dressed at this year’s Olivier awards. However, it would be very unfair of us not to mention the rest of the ladies who sparkled in their frocks last night.
Former Spice Girl and tomboy Mel C, looked absolutely stunning in her almost gothic black high neck dress complete with puff sleeves, while Hannah Waddingham, who iscurrently playing the Lady of the Lake in Spamalot showed short puffball frocks we’re still a big hit on the red carpet.
And of course the night wouldn’t be complete without some red glamour as worn by Gillian Anderson and US actress Sierra Boggess, although we think Sierra was most definitely the lady in red here.

It was another star studded evening last night where stars came out to play on the red carpet for the 2010 Laurence Olivier Awards held at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London.
First to grab our attention on the red carpet was British starlet Kiera Knightley who a best supporting actress nominee for playing a manipulative movie starlet in the play The Misanthrope.
However, we’re not too sure if we like or loathe her maxi, round necked capped sleeve Erdem dress which looks a little bit like our grandma’s curtains. So we’ve decided to let you decide.
Vote below and let us know if her dress was a hit or miss last night.

Wow, we have to admit, we have a major lady crush on Demi Moore.
The actress, whose been one to watch in the style stakes for many years now (who can forget that cute pixie crop she sported in Ghost, which was coveted by many woman, and copied by the braver ones amongst us) has just landed onto the April cover of Harpers Bazaar looking as young and fresh faced as ever.
And Demi fans won’t be disappointed, because the mag has also secured an interview with the star where she talks about the first time she met Ashton and why she prefers being called a puma over a cougar.
“Cougar has become so distasteful. I really hate that expression.” She said recently that when it comes to her relationship, she’d prefer to be called a puma. “It has a sweeter quality, more elegant. And then somebody said to me, ‘Pumas are only for people in their 30s.’”
On the first night she met Ashton: “I knew it had the potential to be something special right away. It was like meeting somebody that I’ve just known where you just recognise one another.
“It was so disproportionate, the level of emotion we were experiencing to the time we had spent together. But when you don’t know someone, you can’t just jump and say, ‘I love you.’ ‘Nice to meet you, I love you!’ Yeah. No. We used to end our calls or emails with ‘And everything we don’t say.’ It just seemed too much, too soon.”
On Alexander McQueen: “McQueen was a genius. I was always thrilled to wear his clothes because they were more than fashion; they were truly works of art.”
Jennifer Aniston is one of the few stars who for so long, has resisted joining the likes of Beyonce, Mariah Carey and Sarah Jessica Parker in launching a fragrance. But it seems she’s finally succumbed.
According to reports in WWD, the actress has signed a deal with the Falic Group- the company that also manages Eva Longoria Parker‘s upcoming fragrance.
Details on the fragrance are still sketchy with Jen’s management not confirming anything at the moment. However rumour has it that it’s taken 20 months for the Friends star to come up with the perfect whiff.
She’s also been struggling on the name, which would sum up the idea of ‘romance and freedom at any age’ in one word. Suggestions for “Aniston” has been turned down by bosses as well as “Echo” and “High Maintenance“.
What do you think Jen should call her scent? Let us know by leaving your comment below.
It seems as though the relationship between Lindsay Lohan and the design house Emanuel Ungaro has come to an end.
Lindsay was employed as the creative director of the brand last year, but after a disasterous fashion show at PFW in September, there was alot of uncertainty whether or not she would stay on And it seems she’s not made the cut.
Ungaro owner Asim Abdullah told WWD backstage at Paris fashion week earlier this week:
“She’s not involved in this collection.”
Lindsay who did not turn up to the show on Monday also told reporters this was because: “Because I don’t work for them anymore.
“There’s legal things going on; I can’t really discuss it,” she said.
Like with the Oscar‘s ceremony we were a little bit hard pressed to find a worst dressed celebrity at the Vanity Fair Oscar 2010 party. Katie Price stuck to Elton’s do, and other celebs really dressed for the occasion.
However, there is always one that gives us an excuse for a little “what was she wearing” comment and we’re sorry to say that these words have fallen on Selma Blair.
We don’t mind the sparkly frock, but the length is a little bit confused for us, sitting too far under the knee and too high up to make it full length. We also think the blazer the actress has teamed it up with is too heavy for the outfit.
And we understand that it was cold, but Selma, really, you’re already wearing a blazer, you don’t need a scarf. Take a look around you and have a think about all those ladies who have braved the freeze without even a shawl.
In our last post we gave you the six best dressed, and told you we struggled to sift these out because of the quality of style on the red carpet this year.
However that doesn’t mean there wasn’t any fashion faux pas, and these were made by the gorgeous Charlize Theron.
The actress, who doesn’t always get it right, went horribly wrong with a lilac satin frock.
But it wasn’t the on-trend colour we have an issue with, it’s the Madonna style boob cups, which are the beginning of a monstrous long train.
Charlize, we’re sorry but that kind of fashion went out of Vogue in the 80s.
We’ve been so excited about some actresses dresses this year and have been guessing for a while what each one will be wearing. One such celeb that kept our curiosity buzzing was brit beauty Kate Winslet, who always pulls off great looks at events.
And she didn’t disappoint with her silverpanelled bodice and matching satin skirt. But it wasn’t just the outfit. The actress also shone (quite literally) with her blonde locks, which she left down.
Other A-listers to grace the carpet were Twighlight star Kristen Stewart, who actually made a huge effort in a black fishtail frock. However, even this wasn’t enough to put a smile on the sulky starlet’s face.
We were really excited to see what Sandra Bullock would be wearing at this year’s Oscars. After all the starlet, who has been nominated for best actress for her role in the Blind Side, always makes a statement (although not in a good way.)
However, this year she quite literally blew us away with her vintage fabric Paquin beaded frock.
We think it’s also a perfect way to ensure no-one else turns up wearing the same dress (hands up who’s had that problem before).
And it seems Ms Bullock is also a woman after own hearts, claiming she completely chilled out all day today.
“I read, ate some berries and relaxed,” she said.
We also have to applaud her on her stunning make-up, especially the pink lips, which went away from this season’s bright red but gave a nod to the upcoming spring looks.
We told you in our last post that pink was the trend du jour for all those pre-Oscar 2010 parties and it seems we were right. However it seems that any shade of this colour goes with celebrities.
Another champion of the pink frock is Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria Parker who attended The Hollywood Reporter‘s Nominees’ Night Prelude to Oscar, presented by Bing and MSN at the Mayor‘s Residence. The actress opted for a shift dress, which dare we say, looks very Victoria Beckham style, but this time in a dark fuscia. Unlike many stars she also kept her hair simple and plain, opting for a straight blowdry over a fancy up-do. She continued the smart/casual look with a pair of beige heels.
Again we’ve been out hunting the highstreet for a perfect match and think this shift dress from Asos is an almost perfect match. Jazz it up with a pair of black gladiator heels for that ultimate pre party look.
