Emily Blunt covers the latest ELLE UK
Know Wear
I was a bit annoyed when I woke up this morning to find out the sun had abandoned London after a glorious week. Luckily, after a nice salmon and scrambled eggs breakfast and coming home to find the May issue of ELLE UK I am seeing the day in a different light.
This is my first ever subscriber's cover of ELLE and I am loving it. Emily Blunt, shot by Thomas Schenk, looks great in a minimalist black and white picture wearing a Valentino dress and JPG shoes. Now I'm quite curious to see the newsstand cover, which will probably be in colour.
The editorial inside looks so chic! I have included two of my favourite looks, which you can see clicking on read more below. My favourite shot is of Emily in a sheer Vionnet dress with metallic embroidery and I also loved the double-peplum look that the McQueen jacket and the Hakaan skirt create. And the touch of the Balmain bra is great!

UPDATED: This is the newsstand cover, what do you think? I much prefer the subscriber's one!

Best Dressed of the Weekend- Salmon & Purple

Best Dressed of the Weekend: Salmon & Purple
JustJared
This has been a great weekend for celebrity style because of the different galas, awards and premieres taking place in the States.
My absolute winner this week is Charlize Theron in Lanvin. I adore this LBD of very simple lines and how the slight volume of the shoulders and the cut-out detail a la side-slit make it super modernand terribly chic. It was a perfect choice for Theron's style.
Nicole Richie in Antonio Berardi is one of the best looks I have seen her in over the last few years. The powder pink palette really complements her skin tone and hair and I love the fact that she's not wearing a dress but it feels super dressed up but it still has that touch of rock and roll. And I loved the rings!
Mila Kunis in Prabal Gurung was obviously a hit. She has such great flair and her attitude and Prabal's SS12 collection seem to go well together. Plus, you know how much I loved every single piece. It's so nice to see one of he simpler ones out and about.
It seems like it's a double hit this week for London designers. Emily Blunt looked stunning in a salmon Marios Schwab dress. He is another of my favourite designers and I just love how a simple silhouette can become so modern, different and chic.

the copper globes

It has been a while since any award gala succeeded in getting to a fashionista's heart. And this year Golden Globes has been no different. However, I have come to the conclusion that if you will fail to even be vaguely fashion-forward you might as well stick to the classics.

Drew Barrymore has very much blossomed into a very interesting fashion personality. This Versace is not only on trend for next season but the bulgy detailing on the shoulder and hip add that edge she always needs. Emily Blunt, however, went for something a bit more restrained yet very gripping because of the way the fabric has been wrapped around. Plus, that haircut is a keeper.

Maggie Gyllenhall might or might not be aware that she doesn't have the most gifted face in Hollywood but she certainly knows how to compensate. Again, the subdued detailing makes her Roland Mouret captivating. Sandra Bullock gave me a big surprise. I loved how Coco's Tea Party chose her dress as the most unexpected colour, it is all about the hue.

Black doesn't really ever go wrong. I love how January Jones was one of the few to choose a high neckline. It made her Lanvin kind of intriguing and her casual hair-do added to that. Julia Roberts looked quite alluring in a very straightforward version of the LBD and the fact that she went into the YSL archive to get it really gives her bonus point in my book.

I was sad to hear from my flatmate that Julianne Moore was in the worst dressed list. My favourite moment of the night was when Tom Ford was asked if he approved of her dress and he almost spit out a "duh", noting that he is very good friends with Nicolas Ghesquière. And, of course, Ashley (the future Mrs. soVIPzone) in a flirtatious electric blue Erdem that takes my breath way. She also wore the Manolos from Sex and The City, which only gives me more ideas of how to propose.
