Emma Watson

Hey,

I have already blogged about hair styles and I said that one of the main summer hairstyles was a pixie cut and today the big news was that the Harry Potter star Emma Watson has cut her hair into a pixie cut. She says that she's "wanted to do this for years and years" I assume she couldn't cut her hair due to playing Hermione who has long hair. Emma Watson said "it's most liberating thing ever".

I'm not sure whether I like it or not she looks very different but very grown up, I think it may help her scrap her Harry Potter image.

New Face of Giorgio Armani cosmetics

Hey,

Brands have often found that having a celebrity to endorse it or as the face of their campaigns can help make they're brand more successful. Aswell as bringing in the celebrity's fans it also attracts the media which gives free advertising.

So recently the face of Madonna's clothing line, Taylor Momsen, celebrated the release of the clothing line by performing at the launch at Macy's store in New York.

And it has been revealed that former Transformers star Megan Fox is the new face of Giorgio Armani Cosmetics. She's already the face of Armani Jeans and Emporio Armani Women's Underwear which she has modelled for in the advertising campaign. Megan Fox told WWD about being chosen as the face of Giorgio Armani Cosmetics saying "I'm honoured to be associated with him and part of this campaign".

Vanity Fair Best Dressed List

Hey,

So in the latest issue of Vanity Fair which features Lady Gaga on the cover have an article on the 2010 international best dressed list. I found this quite interesting as they don't just feature celebrities as I expected, there's jewellers, royalty and artists. The number one best dressed is a heiress Tatiana Santo Domingo and the last one, number 44, footballer David Beckham. The best thing I found with this list was that is was all done on individual taste and individuality. The queen of individuality, Lady Gaga being seen at number 26.

Check out the list here: http://www.vanityfair.com/style/features/2010/09/the-international-best-dressed-list-slide-show-201009#slide=4

Vera Wang

Hey,

This week it was big in America that Hillary and Bill Clinton's daughter got married. She looked beautiful in a Vera Wang wedding dress. This is the best known and most desired designer for wedding dresses. In the film "Bride Wars" Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson fight over the perfect Vera Wang wedding dress. Also recently the pregnant Alicia Keys got married in another beautiful Vera Wang wedding dress.

Check out the wedding dresses at the Vera Wang site: http://www.verawang.com/wedding/allgowns/#/?

I love all of them as they are so graceful and beautifully designed they look stunning. But my favourites are number 10 as I love the skirt and it's design, number 28 although simple I love how the skirt flows to the floor and number 42 is so beautiful the design is marvellous and the corset is stunning and it goes perfectly with the long flowing skirt.

Asos dress

Hey,

I was looking on the Asos website today as they have a sale and I love their clothes but for me I find it a bit expensive sometimes. I came across a few summer dresses but this one dress in particular caught my eye. It's a very slender gold and black mesh evening dress. But the reason I noticed it was because it reminded me of a dress I'd seen before on Demi Lovato at a film première. I remember when I first saw the photos I thought the dress was amazing and I still do. So I looked up this dress and found out it's an Alexander Wang dress and has also been seen on Paris Hilton and Rihanna.

The differences as you can see below are that the Asos one has straps and the black at the top of the dress is a different shape. Then on the back the Alexander Wang dresses mesh goes back up like on the front but on the Asos dress it stays at hem level. And from what I can see the fabric looks different as well.

There's no doubt that the real designer dress is the best but if you want that style for cheaper; I'd snatch it up at Asos for £20.

Summer Dress

Hey,

Even know it's summer already I'm still searching for the perfect summer dress. The problem I'm finding is they are often too floral or the wrong colour or too expensive for me.

I love Taylor Swift's style and she wears some really cute summer dresses. This is one of my favourite recent ones. She always looks great and super cute.

Yesterday I found an amazing summer dress on Jane Norman website and in the sale aswell! It reminds me of Taylor Swifts style of dresses so I love it!

Material Girl

Hey,

Taylor Momsen: New 'Material Girl' Ads!Just a quick update today. I have written before about the new clothing line from Madonna and her daughter Lola. They have recently released some photo advertisements. This is my first glimpse at the line and it looks really good; very edgy like I'd expected but also has a girly flare seen in a very cute floral skirt. Personally I'm not in love with this clothing line but I would buy and wear some of the items. Taylor Momsen fits perfectly for the edgy look and looks amazing in these photos with a reduced amount of black eye-shadow and liner. My favourite outfit and shot is the one with the leather jacket and trousers. My favourite part of this is the shoes but unfortunately it doesn't seem part of the collection!
