Looks of 2011

Nearly every week I've put down a list of my favourite looks, from Street Style to Oscar Red-Carpet, Womenswear to Menswear, Gowns to Minidresses the lists have been long and full of surprises. 

So to round off 2011 I thought I'd choose 10 of my top looks from the week's list.

Angelina Jolie + Atelier Versace Gown @ 2011 Golden Globes

Jolie in a full length, backless Emerald Gown that's covered in Swarovski crystals. Need I say more?

Blake Lively + Chanel Couture Spring 2009 @' The Green Lantern' LA Premiere

 Chic in Chanel, Lively dons some tricky couture. Love love loving the lace and sheer layering

Cate Blanchett + Givenchy Couture Spring 2011 @ 2011 Oscar Awards

Always up for a style challenge Blanchett looked stunning on the red carpet in the violet, pearl embroidered Givenchy

Cheryl Cole + Stephane Rolland Couture Spring 2011 Gown @ Cannes Film Festival 2011

Looking her best in white, the gown offers structure and sex appeal with the deep v neckline. 

Love love loving the fluid drape on the skirt, not to mention that belt!

Freida Pinto + Chanel Couture Spring/Summer 2010 @ 2011 MET Gala

This dress is exactly what I think the MET Gala is, experimental and fashion forward.

Kat Graham + Falguni and Shane Peacock Minidress @ 2011 Teen Choice Awards

In one of my new favourite designers, Graham plays with the minidress concept in this FAB creation by Falguni and Shane Peacock

Rooney Mara + Givenchy Couture Fall 2011 @' The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' London Premiere

Sneaking onto the list, Mara works her edgy editorial look in this white lace Givenchy.

Nina Dobrev + Donna Karan 2012 Resort Gown @ 2011 Emmy Awards 

Red Carpet Stunner. Dobrev looks expensive and at her best in Red at the Emmys

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley + Burberry Gown @ ' Transformers 3' London Premiere

In none other than Burberry, Huntington-Whiteley looks like a goddess in the navy gown. 

Do I need to mention the sexy and revealing top? 

Ryan Goslingt + Salavatore Ferragamo Tuxedo @ Cannes Film Festival

Yes a guy makes it on the list! Gosling has won me over with his forward menswear looks.

Hopefully more guys follow suit!

Here are shots from Cate Blanchett's Harper's Bazaar Australia May spread. Blanchett looks so good in these shots. I love love love that she's a naturally statuesque beauty, I don't really see too much Photoshop on her.

Blanchett wears Romance was Born throughout the spread shot by Will Davidson, making the clothes look really expensive in my book.

See more shots over the jump...

Looking ethereal in Romance is Born, actress Cate Blanchett covers the May issue of Harper's Bazaar Australia; the Style Issue.

The Aussie fashion icon, looks amazing on the cover I love love love. A timeless cover to add to her collection. Blanchett is in the upcoming flick 'Hannah' opposite Saorise Ronan and Eric Bana. She is also going to reprise her role as Galadriel in the Hobbit film franchise.

Oscars 2011 Red Carpet Picks

The 83rd Ocsar Awards ended the film award season for another year. Films like Inception and The King's Speech raked in numerous awards. I must say I actually watched the entire show... well it was recorded by Mother Tan and I did fast forward some parts but for the most of it it wasn't too bad. I'm very happy for both Natalie Portman and Colin Firth for their well deserved wins, but most importantly the fashion! This year saw an emphasis on the body with women showing their figures off. Red and purple where popular colours, with feathers, tulle and sparkle everywhere. My red carpet favourites are below:

- Cate Blanchett: Daring as ever, the Aussie actress wore a violet Givenchy Couture dress. I love the somewhat oriental dress on Blanchett whom looks statuesque and elegant as ever.
- Halle Berry: Wowing in a nude Marchesa dress adorned with crystals and tulle, Berry looks amazing with the dress complementing her luscious skin tone and I'm a big fan of her short do.
- Natalie Portman: Notably a favourite of mine, wearing Rodarte the designers for Black Swan. Portman simply glows in the purple dress with matching tassel earrings.
- Hilary Swank: Adding feathers to the mix, Swank wore Gucci. The bodice is sequin leading to a feathered train it gives somewhat of a 'sea-swept' feel.
- Sandra Bullock: Looking fierce solo on the red carpet in Vera Wang, Bullock is red hot in the figure hugging dress.
