I don’t know much about movies, but I like seeing all those celebrities at the red carpet. Most of them dressed well for the 61st annual Cannes Film Festival, and let’s see who they are:
Mischa Barton
Andrea Osvárt
Devon Aoki
Cate Blanchett
Eva Longoria Parker
Penélope Cruz
Calista Flockhart and her partner Harrison Ford
Paz Vega
Linda Evangelista
So, who do you think is the most fabulous of all?
I’m a minimalist. I don’t do much accessories but I found that the accessories featured at Style.com are great for those who want to know more about the latest fashion trends. Don’t just get the shoes and bags, try these funky and exclusive jewelries from major designer brands too.
Here are some of my favorite picks:
Tough love by Balenciaga
Beads and gems by Lanvin
Only go for this look by Marc Jacobs if you have a long neck.
I love the necklace by Matthew Williamson.
Pointed Spiky necklace shown at Burberry Prorsum
Hearts by Gucci
If you want to make a statement with a plain dress, go for this bangles.
Flower bangles Marni.
I love gold, but I seldom wear anything in gold. It’s such a nice color that will compliment your look if you wear it well. Check out some of the nice dresses in gold, or just a touch of gold.
A Gen Dress by Lanvin
A solid gold dress by Vera Wang
Shimmery Gold by Christian Lacroix
Oscar de la Renta’s haute homage to Klimt, which is also my favorite dress with just a simply touch of gold.
I like the Pre-Fall 2008 Collection by D&G. Most of the clothes are trendy and nice for everyday wear. The collection covers party clothes to lovely evening wears. Just check them out.
Simple yet nice huh?
A lovely bright yellow dress.
A pink party dress for the day, and…
A sexy number for the evening/
A yellow trench coat for a change.
Animal prints never seem to fade from fashion scene.
Boyish yet feminine
So, do you like it?
I love the Spring 2008 Collection by Vera Wang. They are young, lively and trendily colorful. Furthermore, Vera Wang’s clothes are more affordable now and I guess it’s not hard for us to add some in our wardrobe.
Of course, if you won’t feel like buying any designer brands, just catch the fashion tips for Spring from Vera Wang’s collection. Go for colorful bold prints, add layers and dimension if you are slim, go for something simple but add a piece of accessory as a fashion statement and just dress for fun yet feminine.
I wanted to post about Gucci Fall 2008 Ready-To-Wear collection but I was to tied up with my trip to Bangkok. But it’s never too late to post about the pretty clothes now, so if you are a Gucci fan, check out the clothes from the stores. I prefer to take a sneak at the fashion runway and shop for something similar at a cheaper price though. 
I like those embroidered blouses with short chiffon dresses or skirts, but the textiles of Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan might not be a fashion trend here yet, but who knows? Maybe it will be very popular as months to come. On top of that, some of the mint coats might not be practical here, so you can just look at them as masterpieces. These coats and jackets are meant for the rich Russian women huh?
The evening wears are lovely too.
Besides that, how can we miss checking out the bags from Gucci?
If you are looking for a pair of new boots this fall, check out the design from Gucci. I think the boots bring out the jungle in me. LOL!
When most of the bloggers are keen to know who are the nominees and winners of 2008 Academy Awards, I’m more interested on who are the best dressed celebrities at the red carpet. It’s not that I don’t care about who’s bring home the little golden statue named Oscar, but don’t you want to know what they are wearing on one of the grandest event on earth? Here are some of my favorite and best dressed celebrities:
Cameron Diaz in a pink gown from Christian Dior and Bulgari jewelry. She had a Roger Vivier clutch in her hand.
I don’t think Nicole Kidman has ever been in a fashion disaster. Here she was in Balenciaga, a L’Wren Scott necklace, and a Bottega Veneta clutch.
Cate Blanchett proved that you can still look great with a bump. She’s dressing gorgeously in Dries Van Noten with a Roger Vivier clutch.
Another expecting celebrity, Jessica Alba, in Marchesa and Cartier jewelry.
I like the Oscar de la Renta mermaid dress worn by Jennifer Garner. Her Van Cleef & Arpels jewelry and Roger Vivier clutch completed her look.
Did I tell you that I love George Clooney? See how handsome he was in Giorgio Armani.
I don’t know why Penélope Cruz didn’t work out with Tom Cruise, but she looked lovely in Chanel Haute Couture and Chopard jewelry.
Anne Hathaway’s megawatt smile was enhanced with a dress by Marchesa and Harry Winston jewelry.
Did Renée Zellweger write about how she managed to put off the weight successfully? I want to read all about it! She dressed in Carolina Herrera and Cartier jewelry for Oscar.
Calista Flockhart didn’t look too skinny in a vintage dress by Valentino huh?
The last but not least, the Best Actress Marion Cotillard, in Gaultier Paris Haute Couture, Chopard jewelry, and Daniel Swarovski clutch.
I’m not familiar with the clothes from Missoni, but I was looking for some knitting patterns and I found that the fall 2008 ready-to-wear from Missoni has some awesome designs of knit wears. The ponchos are lovely too, and I found a nice way of wrapping myself with a scarf. It’s just too bad that I’m staying in a country of tropical climate, if not I would surely want to try out the looks of the models!
A nice knit dress, I like the color.
A wrap top is never out of style.
I wonder if I should knit something like this?
Or maybe just a simple top like this? I just have to get some help on the knitting pattern.
Poncho? Scarf?
I like the scarf, but I don’t think I can find is useful here.
If you don’t prefer knit wears, there are some nice designs from the collection too.
A nice asymmetric dress. It’s sexy to show off your shoulder.
I like the pants!
Simple but elegant.
Having a party tonight? Go for sequins.
The last but not least, check out the ankle boots. They are lovely.
Nice leather boots!
Frankly, you can only love or hate the collection from Vivienne Westwood. I like the bags, but I seldom pay attention to the clothes. Why? Most of the designs are not that “fashion-friendly” to ordinary people like me, unless you are talking about the tees or some casual tops. The fall 2008 ready-to-wear by Vivienne Westwood Red Label still carries out Westwood’s classic like baggy-hemmed or asymmetric cutting. Check out some of the collection as shown:
I like this look, it’s trendy and sexy.
Baggy, but still look great.
Am I in the 80s? LOL
It’s a weird combination, but you can carry it if you are slim.
Showing off you legs!
Give me this coat!
Nice bag huh? Love the color.
Glamorous and check out the ankle boots.
I love Calvin Klein especially their ready-to-wear and underwear for men. Too bad my hubby doesn’t fancy designer brands, if not I don’t mind getting a few items from CK for him.
It’s not so common to see guys in suits here in Malaysia, but don’t you think the streets will look better if we have guys that look as smart as him walking along with us? LOL!
I would love to see my man in this suit, but too bad, he’s not a guy who takes care of his look. Nonetheless, thre are various sportswear available for guys who go for casual look. If I’m a man, I will get these items….
The sweater is nice!
Don’t miss this jacket too.
Nice and polished huh?
In short, it’s spring but I can’t wait for fall. Italo Zucchelli did a wonderful job for Calvin Klein. Check out style.com for more detail shots.
