Celeb Watch Late September 2009

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

Well Celeb watchers, the world is a strange place this week – Dame Vera Lynn at the top of the charts, the Beatles re-mastered – what next, shoulder pads?!!! Can it be true, nostalgia is back in fashion, and we, as ever, are right at the head of the fashion pack. Bedecked in leg warmers, batwings sleeves, and having an SJP eighties perm flash back, it’s all about embracing our inner disco diva and shrieking Fame! We’re gonna live for ever – or some fashions do at any rate…..

Ricky Gervais – never did we expect his name to grace our celeb watch blog, with all due to respect to Ricky he’s not famed for his cutting edge look. Here he is this week though, sporting the eternally stylish Wayfarer, a man in black with classic style. Obviously if it’s good enough for our Kate, then it’s good enough for Ricky….

We're as suprised as you are, but lets face it, wayfarers are cool!

Lady Ga Ga – You just have to love this girl….while everyone else is having their flashback Flashdance moment, she’s eschewed the huge sunnie trend and gone for tiny Ozzy Osbourne type round frames, these even pre-date ra ra skirts!

What next?.... Biting the head off a chicken?!

Daisy Lowe – Clearly a huge follower of style icon Ricky Gervais, in an homage to the great man she’d been out and about in a Wayfarer type frame, but on her elfin features it looks huge, so is it the real thing? Looks real cute, whichever it is…

Clearly following Ricky Gervais' good form this month

Rihanna – Chic just isn’t the word, this girl rocks every trend going. Seen out in a HUGE deep frame, very chunky, very now, oversized and stylish on her delicate features.

Stylish as ever

So get set for the Winter sun and keep an eye on those stars, plenty of fashion inspiration going on this week. Beatlemania inspired sixties Twiggy lashes and Audrey Hepburn shades? Perms, leotards and dance wear for day wear? You must decide, followers of fashion, or if all else fails, channel that unexpected new style guru, Mr Gervais……

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!
