Fabulous Fashionistas

Barbera Martelo 
Barber was Vogue Spain Fashion Editor before becoming a freelance stylist.  She also publishes for several publications including Vogue and Vanity fair.  Her style is trendy and effortless.  What I love about her style is that it doesn't look forced.  

Anna Dello Russo 
Anna is the Editor for Vogue Japan.  There's no denying that Anna Dello Russo has an amazing wardrobe.  Any girl would go crazy in her closet.  He style is always on trend and she's always adorned with the latest fashion items.  Just one criticism though.  Anna's clothes tend to look a bit age inappropriate at times but nevertheless she still has amazing style.

Miroslava Duma 
Miroslava is the former Editor at Harpers Bazaar Russia, now freelance writer for many different publications including OK Magaziine.  Miroslava is always switching it up.  From Chic suits as seen above to Timberlands and beanies this girl can rock it all.  

Christine Centenera 
Christine the Editor of Harpers Bazaar Australia is always ahead in the style department.  Its is not a wonder why Kanye West used her as a consultant on the debut of his DW Collection.  What I love about Christine's style is that she always looks put together without trying too hard. 

Jenna Lyons 
Jenna is the Head of J Crew. Her signature style is cropped pants as seen above and geeky glasses.  Her style is chic , no wonder why so many Americans trust in her label.

Carine Roitfield
Carine is the Vogue Paris Editor.  Her style is classic and chic with a twist.  This woman is not afraid to wear items in her closet more than once which I personally love.  Her style is trendy without being age inappropriate.  

Kate Moss 
The way in which I would describe Kate would be the perfect imperfect. The star's tossled hair and  barely there make up have become her signature.  Her style is never overly done but she always looks well put together.  There is a definite sense of self when it comes to this star.  

Rihanna
Whether you love or hate her, there is no denying that Rihanna is at the forefront when it comes to trendsetting.  Who else can reinvent their look numerously and have a slew of people following their every move.  Rihanna's style is always edgy and is always right on trend which is why she had to make this list.

Solange Knowles 
Beyonce's little sister definitely knows how to stand out in the style department.  The singer's style is very eclectic and I love her choices when it comes to graphics and mixing patterns.   There's a little African influence in the way she dresses which I personally love being that I am African myself.

Giovanna Battaglia
Giovanna is the Editor of  L'Uomo Vogue.  Her style is classic, trendy and relaxed all at the same time.  She definitely knows hot to mix it up.

Oscars Red Carpet 2013

Charlize Theron in Dior
Loved this whole look.  It was very understated and the hair made it young and fresh.  

Georgina Chapman and Harvey Weinstein
Georgina in Marchesa.  She had that pregnancy glow and dress was perfect for her baby bump.


Halle Berry in Versace
I like this dress on her.  Its a bit futuristic but it works.  Much better than her Golden Globes look.

Chris Pine 
I love that he dared to be a little different with this double breasted suit.  The fit is perfect on him.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban Nicole in L'Wren Scott.  The dress is perfect on her long and lean frame.  Is it just me or is Keith's pants a little tight around the gluteus maximus area?

Salma Hayek and Francois - Henri Pinault
Salma in Alexander McQueen.  I'm not a fan of this dress.  I think it would have looked better on someone a little taller.  Also, why is she covering the twins...they're her best asset? 

George Clooney and Stacy Kiebler 
George in Armani and Stacy in Naeem Khan.  The two of them looked very dapper together. I just wish that George did away with that beard.  


Jennifer Aniston in Valentino
I like that she didn't gravitate toward black like she usually does but this look is so boring.   Jennifer please do something different with your hair once in a while.

Adele in Jenny Packham
Yes its the same look on Adele again but I have to say that the dress is flattering on her frame.

Naomi Watts in Armani Prive
This is one sexy dress.  Probably my favourite look of the night.  The dress accentuated all the right parts of her body.

Anne Hathaway in Prada
This is probably the most disappointing look of the night.  The colour is boring and frankly the cut of the dress is a little old fashioned.  I really don't like the hair as well.  A little more product in the hair would have made a world of difference.   


Jane Fonda in Versace
The woman is 75 years old and still manages to look sexy.  Only word word to describe her...STUNNING!

Olivia Munn in Marchesa
I'm a bit on the fence about this one.  I love the bodice but the skirt is a bit too much.

Jennifer Hudson in Roberto Cavalli
Really like the dress but I think her hair is  too long and the shoe doesn't really match the dress.

Joseph Gordan - Levitt 
Not a fan of this look.  The bow tie is a bit odd and the pants and jacket are two different colours.

Amanda Seyfried in Alexander McQueen
The dress is a bit boring but nevertheless she still looks very pretty.

Jennifer Lawrence in Christian Dior
I really like this look but I feel like she's done similar looks before. 

Kerry Washington in Miu Miu
Don't like the dress.  The fabric on the lower half of the dress looks cheap and I am really not a fan of closed toe shoes with evening gowns.

Zoe Saldana in Alexis Mabille
There's just too much going on here.  From the applique at the top to the belt and then the three layers of different fabric at the bottom...its all just too busy.

Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan 
Channing in Gucci.  These two are so stunning together.  They complimented each other perfectly and I love that she did not hide her baby bump.  She really has that pregnancy glow.

Reece Witherspoon in Louis Vuitton
Old Hollywood Glam personified.  The dress made her waist look tiny.  I cannot flaw anything.  

Jessica Chastain in Giorgio Armani
Another perfect Old Hollywood Glam look.  The colour was perfect on her and the fabric of the dress was stunning.  

Kelly Rowland in Donna Karan Atelier
The dress wasn't too bad but I think her hairstyle ruined the whole look.
