Megan and Alex - What A Couple

Megan Gale took to the catwalk with grace and elegance in the latest designs from my favourite designer, Mr Alex Perry.

Megan looked amazing in bright coloured dresses in reds, curacao blue, paprika and blood orange - the colours work and look spectacular.

If there is one thing that Alex Perry can do and does so right everytime - is to make dressess that flatter the female form.

These dresses are sure to feature of the coming months awards season here in OZ and around the world.

Bravo Mr Perry and Ms Gale!

In Memory

Today the world lost another of its group of iconic actors, Ms Elizabeth Taylor.

Dame Elizabeth Rosemond "Liz" Taylor, DBE (February 27, 1932 – March 23, 2011) was an English-born American actress.

Beginning as a child star then throughout her adulthood, she became known for her acting talent, glamour and beauty; as well as a much publicised private life, which included eight marriages, several near-death experiences, and decades spent as a social activist, championing the cause of AIDS awareness, prevention and cure.

Taylor, a two-time winner of the Academy Award for Best Actress, was considered one of the great screen actresses of Hollywood's Golden Age.

A truly stylish lady with a big heart and a desire to help find a cure for aids - the world has lost a great woman who is now at peace.

The Trench

Thank goodness for the Trench coat.

Timeless. Elegant. Up For Anything!

Invented by Thomas Burberry (the man behind the famous UK label) in 1901, this chic coat design has stood the test of time — and doesn’t look to be going out of fashion any time soon.

Wear it buttoned up over a mini dress with boots in winter or casually open over jeans in spring.

Choose monochromatic colours such as black, brown or cream for longer-lasting style.

Jessica Simpson Does Shoes!

Ooooo - I lurve shoes!!

And apparently so does Jessica Simpson.

So who would have known that she (well someone has) has been able to put together a few good pairs in her line of shoes aptly named Jessica Simpson Collection.

I really don't like it when "celebrities" intrude in areas that they should leave alone -  eg Madonna & Movies, Paris Hilton & Singing, Bjork & Fashion - I think it makes it harder for the people that know and exceed in these areas to make a bigger impact in the fashion world.

But getting back to Jess and her shoes - I'm impressed - so much in fact I've gone to find them in person and they are really good looking shoes.

It also came as a surprise to me the large amount of goods she has on her website jessicasimpsoncollection. Its huge and the products on offer are good if not great!

She is currently estimated to have pulled in over $100million from her collection in 2010!! Not bad for a girl that got famous for asking if Chicken from the Sea was really chicken!

So here I have put together a few of my favourites - keep an eye out in your local fashion boutiques to have a look and try on the shoes - like me - you will be surprised!
