Looks of the Week - 16-22nd May 2011

Bar Refaeli - Attending the premiere of 'The Beaver' at the Cannes Film Festival, Refaeli wore a navy form fitting Roberto Cavalli gown. Love love loving the cut outs and Jewelled detailing.

Isabel Lucas - At the Young Hollywood Awards in Los Angeles, Lucas accepted the Star of Tomorrow Female Award. Lucas wore an elegant ivory lace Ralph Lauren gown to the event.

Gwen Stefani - Wearing a custom black L.A.M.B. gown, Stefani attended the 2011 amfAR's Cinema Against Aids Gala at the Cannes Film Festival. I love love love the black fringe details on the dress, and the mermaid tail suits Stefani well.

Kristen Bell - In a J Mendel minidress, Bell attended the premiere of 'The Hangover Part II' in LA. I think the combination of the chiffon and peach mini dress looks tres amazing.

Penelope Cruz - In a red Armani Prive's Spring 2011 gown, Cruz was in Munich for the premiere of 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides'. I love love love how the red organza works well with the structured cut of the dress.

Ryan Gosling - The first male to feature on LOTW. Gosling was at the Cannes Film Festival premiering his film 'Drive' in a custom blue Ferragamo Tuxedo. Loving the blue Tux, adds some spice to menswear it does!

Zoe Saldana - At the 'Tree of Life' Premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, Saldana wore an red and white Armani Prive gown. Saldana always seems to be able to pull of uniquely structured dresses and this is no exception. The bold lines on the dress don't ruin Saldana's great figure. Love love love!

Gwen Stefani's May cover for Elle USA has surfaced. The May Music Issue has a large feature on women in music with Willow Smith, Jennifer Hudson, Adele and more. I previously posted singer Robyn's Cover, but Stefani's is the newsstand version.

I'm love love loving me this cover. Stefani has come into her own recently having refined her style from harajuku and cutesy to really chic and feminine. This is my favourite Elle USA cover, the overbearing text and colours just work this time around. Not to mention Stefani looks tres intense in Givenchy, and that hair I love love love.

Stefani is a busy lady with No Doubt reformed and set to release a comeback record, becoming a L'Oreal Spokeswomen, having two fashion lines and raising two adorable boys! Fun life no?

Gwen Stefani - Elle UK April 2011

Fashion designer, singer and mother Gwen Stefani covers the April issue of Elle UK; The Romance Issue.

Stefani closed New York Fashion Week displaying her fall ready to wear 2011 L.A.M.B. collection. The cover is light and simple with Stefani lying down, playing up with the model composition on the cover, somewhat like with their Kylie Minogue cover last year.

A definite purchase, having a feature on the Elle UK Style awards.
