BAFTA 2013

My personal favorite , Tom Ford, was the suit of choice for Nicholas Hoult. He looked suave!

Jessica Chastain put on a royal blue Roland Mouret for the event. It was a perfect touch of brightness to the snowy day.

The studded Burberry dress looked beautiful on Anne. After a series of light colors, the black made for a nice change She looked stunning.

Adding a little sun to the snowy evening was Marion Cotillard in a cheery yellow Dior. Absolutely love the whole look, from the dress to the necklace, red lips and 20s do. Breathtaking!

Amy put out one of her best looks in an Elie Saab. The peek-a-bpp bodice was beautiful and I lust the pink Faberge earrings. The beehive updo was the icing on the cake.

Another one who showed up in the canary hue was Andrea Riseborough in Vivienne Westwood. She looked lovely!

Ben Affleck was in Gucci for the evening. Posing with him was Bradley Cooper in a navy Ferragamo. Need I say more?! Hotness in double!

Luke Evans made a bold choice with a merlot velvet blazer, but he definitely managed to pull it off beautifully.

Eddie Redmayne was in the brand he represents, which is Burberry. Who wears Burberry better than a Burberry model?!

Doing a unique Chanel was Elizabeth Olsen. Love the look on her. Very cute!

In a rather 'meh' Celia Kritharioti dress, Gemma Arterton attended the awards. The striped dress didn't quite do anything for her and the updo was rather messy too.

Here is a black dress done right. Olga Kurylenko put on a Ninna Ricci with sequined panels and a shimmery bodice. The make up and hair were the perfect compliment to the dress. Love the scarlet lips!

Hayley Atwell scored high in the fashion charts in a structural black and white Antonio Berardi. Love the dress, not loving the hair as much.

I'm on the fence with the Alessandra Rich gown Alice Eve put on. I appreciate the attempt to do something different, but his one seemed to startling a design. Love the look neck up though.

Helen Mirren's Nicholas Oakwell dress was divine but who's paying attention to that when she topped it off with new pink pixie do. To see the legendary actress pull that off is just a treat!

Helen Mirren in Nicholas Oakwell

Hugh Jackman with beard. What do you guys think? I think beard or no beard, he looks dapper. His wife, however, could look for help in the fashion front.

Hugh Jackman and wife

In a black and white Roland Mouret, Jennifer Garner looked sleek. Love that she kept the look simple with only a pair of drop earrings and a simple updo.

Looking simply stunning in a Dior Haute Couture was Jennifer Lawrence, who accesorized her dress with drop earrings and a slick pushed back do.

Jennifer Lawrence in Dior

Looking beautiful in Stella McCartney was Juno Temple who opted for the label's black and white gown. I'd prefer if her hair was in a ponytail though.

Juno Temple in Stella McCartney

Going against the traditional gown, Sarah Jessica Parker went for a velvet Elie Saab jumpsuit. I like the jumpsuit, but the necklace wasn't impressive, and the cuffs on both hand was distracting, and is that a scrunchy on her right hand?

Sarah Jessica Parker in Elie Saab

Thandie Newton brought black lace to the red carpet via her Louis Vuitton gown. The dress seemed tailor made for the red carpet. The thigh high split was subtly sexy and I simply adore the hair and make up.

Thandie Newton in Louis Vuitton

Sarah Silverman did a black draped Rafael Cennamo at the event. She accessorized with emerald drop earrings. She looked nice, but I'm not so crazy about the updo.

Sarah Silverman in Rafael Cennamo

Putting out possibly her most sober look till date was Helena Bohem Carter in Les Habitudes. The 50s silhouette was lovely on her and the deep red lips suited her to a tee. Tim Burton, however, looked frumpy and straight out of bed.

Tom Hiddleston, who seemed to be a cheery mood, shed his Loki suit for a sleek black suit. Very nice!

Tom Hiddleston

It was a blue and purple flower embellished black Christopher Kane gown. Not a really big fan of the dress. She does look god neck up though.

Star Guild Awards 2013

Sophie kept it classic and simple in a strapless black Alice & Olivia. She finished it with a pair of glittery pumps, a sleek updo and red lips. Sometimes simple does work best.

Sophie Chaudry in Alice + Olivia

Anushka changed it up with a Manish Malhotra saree. While I'm not a fan of the saree itself, I do love the styling. The dramatic eye make-up, the jhumkas, pulled back updo, gorgeous!

Anushka Sharma in Manish Malhotra

Arjun dressed it up in a blue suit. Love the blue shade and love the way he's carrying it.

Arjun Kapoor

Sara Loren arrived in a black Namrata Joshipura, which she paired with ruby studs and an updo. Love the studs but not a fan of the updo or the dress.. Just doesn't look right on her.

Sara Loren in Namrata Joshipura

I have a doubt that Ekta Kapoor owns a time machine. By the looks of this dress, it seems that she had travelled back to the 80s and got herself this mess of a dress. Seriously, what in the world was she thinking?!!

Ekta Kapoor

Vidya opted for what else but a Sabyasachi saree. She finally tried a different styled blouse which was a welcome change and the purple saree looked beautiful on her. Also love the green fall of the saree peeping though. Very nice!

Vidya Balan in Sabyasachi

Father and son, Boman and Kayoze Irani posed together for the shutterbugs with Boman wearing a 3-piece suit  and Kayoze in a grey suit and blue shirt. Both looked good

Kayoze and Boman Irani

Aditi have been having a good run with her appearances but this seems to be the break point. The Payal Singhal saree just didn't cut it. The color and design was dull and didn't really do anything for her. Perhaps a better styling would've helped.

Aditi Rao Hydari in Payal Singhal

Ileana went for a Dolce & Gabanna gown for the event but unfortunately, it just didn't work. While her hair and make-up was sweet, the dress just weighed it down, Not a fan.

Ileana D'Cruz in Dolce & Gabanna

Priyanka chose a Shehlaa mini. The choice was a 'meh' to me. It was ok but less than exciting and seemed liked something we have seen her in often enough. I love the heels though.

Priyanka Chopra in Shehlaa by Shehlaa Khan

Sonakshi was lady in white in an Abu Jani & Sandeep Khosla suit. This was again a nice but rather boring choice. 

Sonakshi Sinha in Abu Jani & Sandeep Khosla

Jacquline took on a risky look with a heart printed Lanvin gown. I like the cut of the dress and her hair but not one bit a fan of the print Kudos to her for making it work though.

Jacqueline Fernandez in Lanvin

Sridevi dressed it up in a Sabyasachi look. While I'm not particularly fond of the red polka dot arm panel and the huge neck embroidery, Sri sure managed to make it work. She finished out her look with a side braid and jhumkas.

Sridevi in Sabyasachi

Prabhu Deva presented his all black avatar at the event in a black suit with leather lapel trimming. He looked good!

Prabhu Deva

Salman was also in an al black avatar. I love the leather lapel on his jacket!

Grammy Awards 2013

Gotye suited up in Jack London for the award evening while Kimbra did a snow queen-esque look with Jami Lee Major. The dress might not be fashion forward but seemed perfect for the quirky singer and we always look forward to quirky at the Grammys.

Gotye (in Jack London) and Kimbra (in Jamie Lee Major)

Alicia did punk rock nicely with a cut out Alaia dress and the correct styling. She was joined with her hubby, Swizz Beatz, who was in a grey sit with checkered shirt. I like the combo.

Alicia Keys (in Azzedine Alaia) and Swizz Beatz

Adele took a risk with a pink and red floral Valentino dress. Love the color and silhouette on her but the grandma's table cloth print didn't work for me. But kudos for the attempt!

Adele in Valentino

Allison Williams was statuesque in a Kaufman Franco dress. The art deco design was lovely.

Allison Williams in Kaufman Franco

Tony Ward dressed Ashanti for the Grammys. I, for one , am not a fan of the look one bit.

Ashanti in Tony Ward Couture

Jay Z cleaned up nicely in a black tux and accessorizing it with 3 Grammys didn't hurt either.

Jay Z

Beyonce ditched the predictable gown for a black and white Osman jumpsuit. Love the minimalist cut and the sleek ponytail. Trés chic!

Beyoncé in Osman

Carly Rae upped the fashion game from her last appearance with a slinky Roberto Cavalli number. Her date, Matthew Koma complimented her with a black suit over a funky shirt.

Carly Rae Jepsen (in Roberto Cavalli) and Matthew Koma

Carrie kept it classy and classic with a fitted Roberto Cavalli number. Despite the classicality, the design was kept interesting with the lacy detailing. And lets not forget to mention the 381 carat necklace around her neck (Yowza!).

Carrie Underwood in Roberto Cavalli

I'm not usually quite the fan of midriff baring on the red carpet, but done with elegance, Chrissy did it right with Joy Cioci. She paired it with green clutch and completed it with side swept hair and drop earrings. Lovely.

Chrissy Teigen in Joy Cioci

Chris Brown suited up in white Lanvin. He definitely stood out.

Chris Brown in Lanvin

John Legend did navy suit and looked good in it!

Also doing navy was Drake who put on a Saint Laurent for the event. Looking good!

Esperanza went for an interesting print for the Grammys. The 28 year old looked lovely in her Eden Diodati dress and cape. She finished it out with matching earrings.

Esperanza Spalding in Eden Diodati

Janelle Monáe took pointers from the Mexican men and went for an androgynous look with Against Nature vest and shirt, Moschino jacket and Ralph Lauren hat. Love it!

I'm torn with this look. Love the color, Hate the matchy-matchy clutch and heels. Love the idea of the spikes, hate the reptilian effect. Final verdict: a NO!

Florence Welch in Givenchy

Hunter Hayes combined formal and sporty, pairing his all black suit with a pair of sneakers.

Hunter Hayes

Look out for the legs on Jennifer Lopez in Anthony Vacarello. More than the dress, I'm loving the ankle strap heels on her and the top knot made a nice addition. In her arm was beau, Casper Smart in a grey suit.

John Mayer put on a bold choice of a blue velvet tuxedo jacket for the event and managed to pull it off. Posing with him was the legendary Quincy Jones who dressed all in black.

Quincy Jones and John Mayer

Justin looked dapper in a Tom Ford suit. Special attention to the shoes, damn cool!

Justin Timberlake in Tom Ford

While the Michael Kors dress looked beautiful on Karlie Kross but can't help but think that its a rather under-dressed look for the event in question.

Karlie Kross in Michael Kors

This Vivienne westwood may look a bit like a wrapping paper but no doubt, Kat Dennings looked good in it.

Kat Dennings in Vivienne Westwood

Kaley took on a mix and match look for the Grammys, pairing a Langton tank with Bird by Juicy Couture leather pants and an Amen tuedo jacket. Lust the jacket! Very cool!

Kaley Cuoco in Amen (tuxedo), Langston (tank) and Bird by Juiccy Couture (pants)

Katy Perry was breathtaking in a green Gucci column dress with embellished keyhole neckline. The singer looked beautiful!

Katy Perry in Gucci

Kelly Osbourne did simple and sexy right with a black Paule Ka dress The gold drop earrings paired with the purple ponytail looked divine.

Kelly Osbourne in Paule Ka

I, for one, wasn't quite impressed with Ms. Clarskon's look. The Valentino dress was boring, The blonde waves does nothing for her and the blue earrings wasn't impressive either.

Kelly Clarkson in Valentino

In a skin revealing Georges Chakra Couture, Kelly Rowland made heads turn. No complains here!

Kelly Rowland in Georges Chakra Couture

Mario showed off some legs with her pale yellow Gomez-Garcia dress. While I love the color, I'm not quite a fan of the belt. Nonetheless, she looked lovely!

Maria Menounos in Gomez-Garcia

Miranda picked a simple Roberto Cavalli dress and spiced it up with punk earrings and cuff. Very noce!

Miranda Lambert in Roberto Cavalli

Natasha stunned in a red EMESON number. It may not work on everyone, but it suited her style perfectly. She topped it with a metal belt, giving it a cool vibe.

Natasha Bedingfield in EMERSON by Jackie Fraser-Swan

It was a gold Vera Wang for Nicole. Love the subtlety of the dress, while still showing off a bit of sexy via the peek-a-boo lace. Meanwhile, Keith kept it simple with an all black ensemble.

Nicole Kidman (in Vera Wang) and Keith Urban

Going back to a softer feminine do was Rihanna who showed up in a red hot Azedine Alaia. Gorgeous!

Rihanna in Azedine Alaia

Taylor exuded Grecian elegance in her white J. Mendel. Love the silver trimmings and the braided halo do.

Taylor Swift in J Mendel

Rocking a green Ralph & Russo Couture was Solange Knowles, who paired her outfit with funky coral-pink pumps. Love!

Faith Hill looked lovely in her J Mendel dress. Absolutely love the patterned peek-a-boo panels and hubbie Tim McGraw matched her with a head-to-toe black ensemble.

Faith Hill (in J Medel) and Tim McGraw

Wiz Khalifa suited up in Tom Ford and with him was his wife, Amber showing off her heavily pregnant belly. Love the earrings!
