Celeb Watch Hello June 2010

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

It’s jumping June Celeb Watchers! Time to gear up for festivals, Pimms, suntans and maxi-dresses for all occasions. (What a wonderful invention – we may never wax our legs again!) While we wallow in SATC 2 fever and dribble into our popcorn over Aiden and Mr Big – that SJP is one lucky lucky girl, we somehow have to find time to keep an eye on those Celebs for you……

Victoria Beckham – Ok, we’ll never get over our crush on VB, the ultimate icon for die-hard shoppers, so we may be biased, but we’re loving her huge shades with a cool graduated tint.

Kate Winslet – We do admire her spunky British style, but in the way of British style it’s sometimes a little off kilter – take a leaf from VB’s book, Kate, and graduate with honours! The one colour tint is so last year – but nice big square sunnies, top marks for a shape that suits you.

Lady GaGa – Lady G, if we’ve got a crush on Mrs Beckham then it’s true love for you, you never disappoint! It’s hard to concentrate on the eye wear what with the fishnets, crazy hats and big pants, but she’s been rocking a huge Aviator shield. Very feminine on her petite face.

Khloe Kardashian – Taking a leaf our of VB’s book, in a cool and vastly oversized plastic with a graduated tint. Nice brown to honey shading, beautiful against her skin.

So thanks for the inspiration girls, we’re off to shop – check list for festival – Prada silk pumps, tiny shorts, baby wipes, at least six pairs of sunnies, fishnets and telephone hat – high maintenance? Moi?

Celeb Watch Winter’s End 2010

Friday, March 5th, 2010

We’re exhausted this week Celeb watchers, what with drinking in every detail of the fab frocks at the Baftas and trying to keep up with the news on our face Celeb couples. How divine did Kate Winslet look in her slinky black lace panelled gown? How dreamily delicious was Colin Firth in his gracious acceptance speech? (Totally our new crush, even without the Mr Darcy wet shirt) Then we’re having to cope with worrying about Cheryl, and even Vernon and Tess are causing us stress…only one thing for it…..time to Celeb watch then shop shop shop……

Cheryl Cole – Poor darling, fighting for her love or maybe just her sanity but holding up in the style stakes with some fab hats and very cool bronze Aviators. Perfect colour with her luscious toffee coloured locks, now she just needs to find a perfect man….

Lady GaGa – Ok they weren’t really glasses but how cool was her lace headgear with lace eye mask! She just has to get a mention for being so wonderfully bonkers!

Brad and Angelina – in a show of togetherness even wearing matching Avaitors, and those shades are as out of their sell by date as Brad’s tragic beard. Smarten up man! Then maybe Jen will do the whole world a favour and take you back.

Victoria Beckham – Doing oversized with complete conviction, a huge smoky plastic in a very cool and retro octagonal shape. She may have her detractors but honestly, she never gets it wrong.

Well that’s better isn’t it, some serious style watching puts you right back on track for the must have list for Spring and we’re sure a bit of serious shopping will cheer Cheryl right up. You can’t rely on a man but there’s never heartbreak browsing the rails down Bond Street……

Celebrity Eyewear

Thursday, March 12th, 2009

Celebrities are always the people to watch to spot up and coming trends. So far this year, Britney Spears has been seen in a pair of Chanel sunglasses with gold lattice detail on the side. The lenses wrap around the sides of the face.

Kate Winslet has been seen in thick black Bvlgari frames with a fantastic high gloss. The arms of hers are decorated with a silver square motif logo design that is accented by over ninety Swarovski crystals.

Victoria Beckham has a favorite pair of Dolce and Gabbana glasses, while Liz Hurley prefers her Gucci aviators. Rihanna, Gwen Stefani, and Nicole Richie have all been spotted wearing a fantastic pair of oversized Dolce and Gabbana glasses. They are still slightly bug-eyed shape but are more squarish and very cool. Madonna seems to mostly be wearing Christian Dior.
We have been noticing, however, a very interesting trend that we are curiously watchincg Amanda Peet, Kate Blanchett, Chloe Sevigny, Jennifer Garner, Kirsten Dunst and Lindsay Lohan have all been spotted out in public wearing eyeglasses, and looking fresh and fabulous!

I think it is a great look, adding personality and a little kick to their style, and I hope this trend grows and continues. Each of these women had on designer frames that were unique from one another and very flattering. Chloe Sevigny had on a heavier fifties inspired pair while Cate Blanchett sported a sleek bright blue pair. I love the sophistication and geek chic of this new look!
