Thandie Newton in colours.......

Thandie Newton wore an incredible purple sequinned dress at the Black Screen party in London last night. In fact, Thandie's outfit is a paintbox full of colour! She teamed the show stopping dress with a vibrant yellow brass-buttoned coat (for extra protection from this Autumn chill) and a pillar box red clutch. The overall look is bold and interesting: a truly showstopping outfit!

Kelly Preston hates CROCS............


Kelly Preston is horrified by the recent trend for colourful Crocs shoes and can't wait the public to tire of the plastic footwear.
The shoes were tipped as the next big thing in fashion last year (06), but the footwear has only grown in popularity in 2007.
Celebrities including Al Pacino, Drew Barrymore, Teri Hatcher, Matt Damon, Faith Hill, Rosie O'Donnell and U.S. President George W. Bush have been spotted wearing the American-made shoes, which were originally designed for boaters.
I'm not a fan of CROCS as well but i do respect those people who love wearing that confy sandals, and i find it cute when i saw little kids wearing it, but unfortunately not for adults.....

James Blunt - no sense of style?


British singer James Blunt is also well known for having unimpressive wardrobe so the musician blamed his poor dress sense on his nationality, insisting UK men struggle to look good and do not have sense of style, I'm sure many good looking british men will react on this statement , and there's no need of pointing fingers on others when the only one you see in the mirror is YOU!!!

Ad Campaign - Anorexia

Isabella Caro is a 27-year-old Frenchwoman who has suffered from anorexia since she was 13. Italian fashion label Nolita is using her in an ad campaign to publicize anorexia. And to preach against what they see as "unhealthy stereotypes" promoted by the fashion industry.
I hope this poor woman recovers, somehow, True, "fashion" doesn't make girls/women anorexic. However, most of the runway and print models you see these days are horrifically skinny and very young. Fashion sends the very strong message that too skinny is beautiful and healthy which is not true, May this ad serve as an eye opener for all the models & celebrities who tried to be so skinny in order to be famous.....

Kate Moss - British style icon

Kate Moss
She's out and about wearing her own Topshop jeans with a lovely belt, a very casual look, simple but very appealing, i love the way she carry herself & i dont think there's anything out of her bound in fashion, i supposed that's what British style icon is all about, but for us, if we try an outfit that is out of our boundaries, outcome is different & we'd rather go naked than wear it, i don't know how she pull it off.....

Naomi doing a bit of charity

The Stars of the Fashion Relief Show At London Fashion Week, the royal couple, Princess Beatrice and her mother Dutchess of York.
Kate Moss
Elle Macpherson & Claudia Schiffer
Naomi Campbell
Footballer Emmanueal Adebayor
Katherine Jenkins
Rio Ferdinand After all the news we heard about her like what happened 7 years ago in February 2000, Campbell pleaded guilty in Toronto to assaulting her then assistant, Georgina Galanis. An expression rained her housekeeper, Ana Scolavino, with a mobile during a fracas at her home in New York's Park Avenue – Naomi has homes in all the usual places. Miss Scolavino required four stitches to her head. Campbell pleaded guilty to "reckless assault" and was ordered to perform five days' community service and attend an anger management course. The community service involved mopping out lavatories at a New York City Sanitation Department depot. Campbell is still currently facing a lawsuit by another former maid, Gaby Gibson, who claims she was assaulted by her and wrongly accused of theft when her employer failed to locate a pair of Stella McCartney jeans. But forget the bad times, back to the good works, here she is now doing charity for the flood victims. The Flood relief charity show at London Fashion Week is supported by Claudia Schiffer, Jessica Stam, Lily Cole, Erin O'Connor , Yasmin Le Bon, and joined by celebrities including the Oscar-winning Hollywood star Faye Dunaway, the actress and model Elle Macpherson, the soprano Katherine Jenkins and socialites such as Bernie Ecclestone's daughter Petra; Heather Kerzner, the tycoon's wife; Tamara Beckwith; Manchester United star Rio Ferdinand and male model David Gandy, who is the current star of the Dolce & Gabbana campaigns also participated. A man from the Rotary Club of Great Britain, whose flood disaster appeal is set to benefit from Fashion for Relief, explains how the money will help rebuild scout and guide huts and other community facilities, and conveys the nation's gratitude to Naomi – who's secured a few private donations. We just hope that everyone will keep this charity work from their heart & will not be forgotten easily, it will be a good influence to youngster to pick the good deeds she made in the society & not the the terrible one, after all she is supposed to be a role model.......
