Best Dressed Oscar Red Carpet 2015


I loved the winning leading actress' gown this year. It was classy Chanel that complimented her red with the dazzling green jewels perfectly. Her figure was perfectly accentuated in this lace print white dress.



















Lady Gaga's tribute to the sound of music was incredible! Its always been one of my families most watched movies (why I'm still not really sure). I'm really liking that she's toning down her wardrobe slightly with this Dior couture dress but has her previous edgy style with the bright red gloves. I have to admit I hadn't heard much about the designer Alaïa before I saw this dress but its defiantly best dressed material!
Alexander McQueen is always out there and gorgeous making this dress no different. It was so beautifully beaded on the top going into an incredibly silky flowy bottom looked incredible on Felicity Jones. 

Again I haven't heard much about the designer Thakoon until last night but the empire neck made Anna Kendrick look stunning and the peachy colour complemented her skin tone perfectly! 


 I've adored what Gwyneth Paltrow has been wearing lately even though I didn't particularly like her attitude in previous years.  Her appearance in this Ralph and Russo Couture dress put her straight on this list, it made me want to hit the gym to see if I could squeeze into it! 

Emma Stone can do no wrong in my book. She's so funny and quirky you want to be her best friend instantly when you see her in an interview. This Ellie Saab haute couture green dress wouldn't usually be up my street however the fantastic beading and her figure in this dress made it so I had no choice but to put her on the best dressed list.  


Damn, Ressee Witherspoon rocked this Tom Ford with her beautiful curvy figure and slim waist. The black and white colour blocking complemented her look creating a stunning silhouette!
After just giving birth to her second child Rosamund Pike looks absolutely fantastic! I have no idea how she's done it. I have  that good a figure usually never mind carrying babyfat. This Givenchy dress is absolutely incredible. She pushed the envelope with  bright red lace and it defiantly payed off. 


Another new mum looking fabulous is Keira Knightly wearing this floral print Valentino dress! She looked glowing and flowy walking down the red carpet putting her in a strong position on the best dressed list.

Pandora Bracelet Review

 Pandora Bracelet Review 


Charm on Website 
Hey everyone just wanted to do a quick review on this new pandora bracelet I received a week ago.
My Bracelet 

Since I put it on I haven't removed it. I managed to separate myself and the bracelet to take a quick picture of it for you all. Its so easy to pair with any kind of outfit because its black and has a simple style to it. the braided detail doesn't show up that much but once you notice it, it adds a little edgy vibe in your look.


Pandora Bracelet on website 
I'd recommend the silver charms because then it makes it a lot easier to pair with in outfits making the bracelet available for an everyday look. That way you can easily add another bracelet to your look or rings and it wont look too busy mixing tones, if the majority of your other rings and bracelets are silver that is. If not then go for it! Gold isn't really what I usually wear so I avoid investing in pieces such as this one in the metal, because I know I won't get the same use out of it as I would it were silver.


Thought I would add another picture incase you couldn't see very clearly what the bracelet looks like in the picture I took.

Maybelline Color Show Nail Disaster

So this product immediately caught my eye when I first saw it. Its the most beautiful turquoise I have ever seen and I just had to have it on my nails at that very moment

In all fairness this product apply's nicely and smoothly with no bumps or clumpy bits. Its very much true to colour and looks great on the nails when its been freshly applied. So for a while I had absolutely no problem with this product. It's staying power was nice with little to no chipping after its first week of being applied to the nails. It was when it came to taking off the nail varnish with my regular nail varnish remover, that the problems began. 

As you can see below the nail varnish completely stained my nails with the colour making them go a vile greeny/ yellow color that I have yet to figure out how to remove.

 
I have decided to hide my nails from the population from further notice by applying a nail varnish over the top to hide all that stain. I also noticed after a while that the polish had not only stained my nails but it had also made them extremely dry and weak. I cannot review this product more poorly.

I have been a fan of Maybelline's products and I'm extremely disappointed in this situation I'm in. I will be thinking twice about purchasing any products from this brand again and be staying away from their nail varnishes entirely! 


Please comment telling me if you have had the same situation occur to you or anything similar so I can find out if its the products line or just a faulty defected product I obtained. Thank you for reading!
