The Oscars

I was really looking forward to oooo-ing and ahh-ing at the glamorous ladies' dresses from The Oscars last night.

But if I'm honest, I'm not totally blown away, boo.

Having said that they actually do all look stunning but you know...I've just seen them look better.

Maybe when you're an A-Lister The Oscars just get a little mundane and boring and you just throw any old thing on....(Meow!) 

Here are my favourite looks from the night.

Both Jennifer Lawrence's and Anne Hathaway's dresses took me all day to like. When I saw them this morning, I really wasn't impressed. I thought Jennifer looked like she was wearing old curtains(Sorry Dior!) and I just didn't think Anne's was flattering. 

BUT, now I've totally fallen in love with Jennifer's gown but I'm still on the fence about Anne's.

I don't think many women could pull off this colour but it looks perfect on Jessica Chastain.

Forget Selema, but how lovely does Vanessa Hudgens look? Such a babe!

I didn't actually think much of Jennifer Aniston's dress (so I won't show it to you!) but this photo caught my eye, they just look so in love! 

Now, I think I've saved the best for last. Wait, scratch that! This is by far the worst outfit of the night...

Brandi Glanville...you need to take a long hard look at yourself, I mean that outfit? To The Oscars?

No. Just no.

Winter Party Dress Guide!

One of my favourite things about the Winter season is all the glitzy parties with champagne, nibbles and mulled wine! I think Winter fashion is so much more interesting than Summer fashion, the fabrics and colours are just more sumptuous. And so I thought I would combine two of my favourite things about Winter and combine them into a Winter Party Dress Guide!

Sequins

I adore sequins, they're so sparkly and add a certain magic to any outfit, but I feel they are not really appropriate in the earlier months but as soon as the cold weather sets in, the sequins will come out!

French Connection, £275

Lashes of London, £115

New Look, £19.99

Velvet

Velvet is another look perfect for winter parties, it's so sensual! It also adds a bit of glam to any occasion!

Liquorish Velvet, £38

mink pink strolen moment velvet dress, £65

Motel, £52

Full Length

If a party calls for formal full length attire - it;s gunna be a great night! How often do us modern girls get the chance to wear proper dresses? Make the most of it and look gorgeous in one of these sultry full lengths...

Herve Lerger, £1145

LBD

Its a classic, what more can I say? If you're even unsure of what to wear, go for the LBD! Black is slimming, always on trend and you can have fun putting a twist on a classic!

Skater Dress

Skater dresses have to be one of the most flattering dress shapes, they cinch you in at the waist and flare out over the thighs. There are lots of beautiful skater dresses perfect for party season!
