Are we in the Emerald City? No it's the Golden Globes

The Golden Globes were held on Sunday, January 16th. Everyone showed up to impress. I fell in love with a number of the gowns. One of my favourite trends at the Golden Globes was the green trend. All the ladies looked stunning in their emerald and jade gowns. My favourite out of the green ladies were Mila and Catherine's gowns. I love jewel tones and they proved to be a great choice as everyone is buzzing about the dresses.

Blake Lively in Marchesa

Blake Lively looked fabulous in a purple Marchesa dress at The National Board of Review of Motion Pictures Award Gala. She has really been spot on lately with her outfits. Marchesa dresses are always gorgeous and this one does not disappoint. The shade of the dress is beautiful along with the shoulder detailing which is very hot right now. I never would have thought to accessorize a purple dress with aqua colored jewelery, but Blake makes it work. It is definitely something I will be trying out next time I wear purple. The only part of the outfit I was disappointed with was her shoes as I probably would have gone for a shoe without a t-strap as I find it shortens legs. Blake definitely gets an A+ from me for a fabulous outfit.

The holidays may be over, but why not recreate Blake's look for a night out.

Rihanna inspired OOTN

Hey Everyone,

Last night I went to my friend's housewarming party and to the bar after. I wanted to wear something cute and trendy so I decided to create an outfit inspired by Rihanna who was snapped wearing this outfit in London in 2010. I really like denim shirts because you can dress them up or down.

I decided to put my own spin on this outfit.

Denim Shirt
Bandage Skirt
Studded Clutch
Leopard Ring and Necklace
Studded Chained Shoe Booties

Trend Alert... Snoods

How to beat the winter blues? Try a snood. The Snood has been around for a while but has recently became extremely popular. The snood outbreak could be due to the amount of good looking footballers recently spotted wearing them during the English cold snap and also due to some other famous faces wearing them. The snood is fashionable way to stay warm.

I really like snoods. I received one for Christmas and it keeps me extremely warm. I hate taking it off because my neck is so cold without it. Plus they look really cute.

What do you think of snoods? Yay or Nay?
Will you be rocking a snood?

Happy New Years Everyone!

I am happy but yet sad for 2010 to be over. Some of the things I loved about 2010 were:the World Cup in South Africa, getting in shape, zumba, laying in the sunshine and of course starting this blog!

My New Years plans included going to a huge party. Everyone was dressed in Red, White and Black. It was lots of fun. I really enjoyed trying a classic look with a LBD, pearls and red lipstick.

Dress:Sirens
a Belt:Betsey Johnson
Shoes:Random Boutique by Victoria Station in London
Bracelets:Le Chateau
