Fashion in a Week.

There were some hits and misses during the event-filled week/s.
Firstly, there was the Glee: The 3D Concert Movie premiere. It was tough deciding who looked better: Lea Michele or Dianna Agron. Lea Michele wore a black Marchesa number with pumps by Casadei. The look was sleek was her pulled-back hair but it's a easy and safe look to bring to a premiere. She looked great but I'm not crazy about it.
On the other hand, Dianna Agron went with a paler shade with her Christian Cota tulip wrap-dress worn with pale gold Camilla Skovgaard sandal heels and a Salvatore Ferragamo clutch. It's a soft look complete with Dianna's light make-up and spunky cropped hair. I really love her in short hair and it's making me wanna get shoulder-length hair - fluff it up with some spray or wax and you're good to go!
Dianna certainly has my vote this time round, although I miss her in midi dresses.
Miu Miu's new face 14 year-old (14!!!) Hailee Steinfeld attended the premiere in a red-hot outfit comprising of a dress from Louis Vuitton's 2012 Resort Collection and penny loafer heels. The dress was a cute choice though it's not exactly my favourite look of Hailee's but nonetheless, I love that she's rocking those fashion-forward footwear. Penny loafers are definitely on the rise now, and you can purchase gorgeous ones from Marc by Marc Jacobs or Tory Burch (see below)! Visit Shopbop now!

The Jenner sisters of Keeping Up With The Kardashians hung out with stars such as Cory Montieth at the premiere. Older sister Kendall was sweet in a key-hole dress by Keepsake. Her nude Louboutin pumps complete the look. I'm obsessed with her long legs!!
Younger sis Kylie was smart and chic in her Sea New York blouse, Bec & Bridge shorts and Prada platform heels. Her bright yellow clutch adds a splash of colour to her monotone look.
It was really tough to decide which sister's outfit I prefer 'cause they're completely different in style so it's definitely a tie! Kylie balances the matured shirt-and-shorts look with her fun purse and I absolutely adore her shoes, so maybe I like her look a wee-bit more. :)
Anne Hathaway looked like a star at the premiere of her movie One Day in NYC in an Alexander McQueen strapless gown. Thumbs up for her look, 'cause I think she looked better than the model did, in particular, her choice of the Christian Louboutin pumps. I love it over the model's strappy shoes with the dress. She definitely fills the gown better as well.

Just this morning, the Do Something Awards took place at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles. The ceremony brought many do-good celebrities together, to give credit to those who have, in one way or another, made a difference to the society or spread the word of goodwill. 
Cowboys and Aliens (in theatres now!) actress Olivia Wilde walked home as the winner of the Do Something Movie Star Award, wearing her mint-green key-hole dress by Chloe. The look was really disappointing, a far-cry from the sexy look she sported at the Golden Globes 2011, Emmy's in 2009 and 2008 - see below. While I'm not commanding the same amount of formality, I think what we're looking for is the consistency in style - one moment she looks hot, the next she's not. Back to the present, she looked so frumpy in the dress, her hair was a mess, and I hate the shoes.

Tyra Banks was colour-block crazy in her bright and bold ensemble. I think she's receiving quite a but of criticisms for her outfit, but I think she's really having fun with fashion. She doesn't do modelling anymore so while she has a reputation to up-keep, I think she deserves a break and the freedom to try on different styles. I think she looks great, and I don't think many celebrities can carry off all these crazy looks (including the leather piece she wore to the TCAs) that she has been sporting. 
"Skyscraper" singer Demi Lovato looked pretty in her silverish-white halter short dress as she graced the evening's event. The frock was embellished down the front and it was just a perfect match with her white peep-toe heels. I love her tan, I love her hair, I love her earrings. She's making every appearance of hers such a hit, Demi never should worry about her figure 'cause she's rockin' that body! Oh yes, I love her smile and confidence!
Victoria Justice brightened up the blue carpet in her reddish-orange Jay Godfrey frock. The cute dress featured a slight-frilled neckline with a tiered skirt and she looked adorable in her half up-do. Victoria gave the look a bit of an edge by throwing on some leopard print stilettos. It's a young and age-appropriate look, though I'd like to see Victoria in something printed. And I meant the dress.
Orange seems to be a pretty big colour this summer, as Hellcats' Ashley Tisdale took to the "PaleyFest Family Celebrates Television Series from Disney Channel" event in a two-tone off-shoulder dress by Joie Leslie. I adore the dress - definitely something I'd wear, but I'm a little confused with her choice of her suede Christian Louboutin booties. The shoes are great on their own, but it didn't match up to the style of the dress at all. Kinda like how I like her Foley & Corinna dress and her Louboutins at her birthday party in Vegas last month, but not together (see below). The latter made it to ShoeRazzi's "Shoes She Should Have Worn", I think this may/should too.

Off the red carpet, Ashley looked stylish in her wide-brimmed hat and strapless belted grey sundress as she shopped at Planet Blue with her mom. I LOVE this look, it's easy and comfy, not to mention her Chanel Shopper bag is to-die-for. It's a great look for a shopping trip.
Dianna Agron, on the other hand, doesn't seem to inspire with her daily outfits. First she stepped out in a weird pink coif and grandma-looking dress (with her nice blue ballerina pumps?!). Then, she tried a hand at clashing prints but, to my opinion, failed. I like the match between her striped tee and pumps but no, not with the dainty, floral skirt. The nautical tee is coming on too strong for the skirt. Blake Lively (see below) shows how a clash of prints is cleverly done on the set of Gossip Girl.
