'If The Carpet could talk'

Last night til the early morning Hollywood's most anticipated annual event enthralled and engrossed millions as we all tuned in for a chance to see our famous beau's in their best frock's.

Year after year i feel that the same look's are walked up and down the carpet one after the other in the same colours and style's trailing after eachother by various stars. This year threw a whole knew spanner in the works. Instead of eluding plain old elegance and beauty, edge, character and risk bared its teeth at the flashing light's and camera's whose ominous voice scream's 'you look great' no matter what.

This year my suspecting judgement was ambushed with hue's of lilac and flashes of bright's my favourite look's include...

Mila Kunis in her chiffon flowing gown by my favourite designer from Beirut, Elie Saab. His new found success in fashion is well deserved with a wedding dress line enough for my 15 year old self to get married.

Another favourite of mine was Cate Blanchett in her Givenchy Coture gown looking as beautiful as ever, the dresses diverse shape was a real leap of faith for the actress but a worth while one.

Block Statement's

This year im loving the use of colour blocking for spring and summer especially by Calvin Klein. The use of block shapes and bright opaques with no jewellery represent natural beauty at it's best.

Say 'Hello' to Fahion

On many occassion's my friends and family have had the displeasure of my non-stop rants about the misjustice brands such as 'Hollister' cause. Some things (well many things) about the stores touch nerves. I have no problem with the clothes, fashion is always a message and a image but its the message and image stores such as these convey that gets me.

The brand  puts the priorities of fashion in behind it's image which im my opinion loathes average people. As if to say 'you wear this you'll look rich'
There's no diversity in the clothing yet people que for hours just for a tops which reads 'Abercrombie and Fitch' which what? gives them a sense of superiority.

I have no problem with people choice of clothes just these brands choice of image.
The world of Fashion has been rattled following an eventful afternoon in Paris involving John Galliano, Christian Dior's creative director and the best considered designer on the planet. The designer has been suspeneded from his job at Dior and has been jailed due to allegations of anti-semitism.

We live in too modern a world for people to endure rasicm in any form. Especially from those who influence us and the world we live. It horrifies me that if these allegations are in fact true the very idea's that fashion is free and self-expression may be lies to a man who has given inspiration to so many.

Love Chloe, well they love you x


Season after season I wait for Chloe's newest scent sensation. So if your anthing like me your in luck. Chloe's newest perfume 'Love Chloe' it my favourite perfume at the moment, so when i found out that The Perfume Shop are offering a free Chloe clutch when you buy a 50ml or bigger bottle I was over the moon. Get shopping quick because the offer ends 3rd of April. What makes the offer even more magical is that the bag doesnt consist of the words eau de toilette so you can get away with showing it to your friends and pretending you have a very expensive Chloe clutch. So shh! keep it a secret.
