Fancy owning a celebrity dress?

Here's this week's fashion and celebrity round-up

27 Dresses - Celebrity dress auction on ebay - It's fashion, dahling!1. I attended an interesting event yesterday, which is a tie-in with the movie 27 Dresses. The movie by the way is hilarious - even if you don't like chick flicks, I recommend you go - and actually yesterday's event was also hilarious, although I don't think that was the intention.

Anyway,
27 very generous celebrities have given their dresses to 20th Century Fox to be auctioned in aid of The Lavender Trust. Yesterday at the press event, they held a catwalk show of the dresses, hosted by Mica Paris and attended by glamour model Danielle Lloyd (who looked reassuringly normal-sized for a celeb). I've heard many a rumour about what a diva Mica is in real life and even though I didn't see a hint of that yesterday, she was pretty rubbish as the host - she basically read (and very badly) the information off the cards.

However, the dresses more than made up for her poor reading ability, although I was peturbed to realise I probably wouldn't get even my thigh in some of them.
Bidding has already started with Kylie's dress and carries on until the release of the movie on 27 March.

2. Don't follow
Madonna's extreme exercise regime unless you want to look like a monster from the deep...

3.
Kate Hudson is definitely not pregnant - if she is, it's going to be the size of a bean.

4. Why do pretty celebrities insist on having grotesque pouts? The latest to succumb to the
trout pout is the once gorgeous model Saffron Burrows.

5. Just because you've got a lot of money doesn't mean you'll look individual on the red carpet as these
three A-listers recently discovered!

Is Kate Hudson pregnant?

Here's the news on my radar this week...

Kate Hudson pregnant - it's fashion, dahling1. Kate Hudson has started wearing baggier clothes while off duty. Nothing strange there you might think, it's certainly what I do on a weekend. For poor Kate though, it's sent the rumour mills into overdrive - is she pregnant? Or perhaps she likes to feel comfortable when not squeezing into red carpet frocks?!

2. Speaking of pregnant celebrities,
Nicole Kidman was spotted drinking wine at the Oscars. Shock, horror indeed. I had one friend, who has had 3 healthy babies, who had a glass of wine a night.

3. Last night I felt a tremor in my bedroom but it was nothing to do with my lovely husband - ha ha! I was one of the few peeps to feel the recent UK earthquake. I was actually alerted to it by my poor dog whimpering - if that hadn't happened, I would probaby have slept through it all!

4. Get the Oscars look by plumping up your lashes. Full eyelashes was a popular beauty look with A-listers such as Heidi Klum and Anne Hathaway. For once an easy to copy red carpet look - hurrah! My favourite mascara is Urban Decay's Big Fatty mascara, which plumps up my blonde weedy eyelashes to Twiggy proportions!

5. And finally... summer is well and truly on the way. Well it must be if TopShop have got their first delivery of Havaiana flip flops in. I live in these during the summer. Bring on the sunshine!

Long-haired celebrity children and Essex night outs

These are the guilty pleasures I'll be indulging in this week:

Celebrity babies - Kate and Ryder Hudson - It's fashion, dahling!1. Ogling cute celebrity babies! My favourite just has to be Ryder Hudson - if I ever have a little boy, he's having long hair! Other faves include Seal and Hedi's kids, Gwen Stefani's Kingston (just voted most stylish baby on the planet) and the gorgeously blonde Shiloh Pitt-Jolie. She's going to be GORGEOUS when she's older.

2. Dancing away my cares to Mark Ronson. I'm off to see the hip producer tonight. Am excitedly trying to work out who will appear on stage with him! Last time he played in London, Tim Burgess did a guest spot. Would love that to happen tonight. I would however wee myself if Robbie turned up but since he's become Brian Blessed's look-a-likie, I doubt this will happen.

3. Binge drinking in Essex! I hate the rise of binge drinking and normally I'm a wine with my meal kind of lady but this week has been the LONGEST week ever so I'm going to let my hair down on Saturday night in my best pal Pip's hometown. Watch out Leigh-on-Sea!


4. Working out what to buy this spring. My ban will be over in April (not that far away now) so I'm busy putting together a wish-list for spring. So far, these gorgeous Kurt Geiger sandals and this poppy skirt from TopShop are topping the list.

The Elle Style Awards and the naughty Hilton family!

Here's a quick guide to what's on my news radar this week!

James McAvoy - Best Actor - Elle Style Awards1. It was the Elle Style Awards last night. This is always guaranteed to be an A-list event and this year didn't disappoint. Kylie looked amazing (maybe she's read my blog and got rid of Will Baker?!); Keira Knightley looked miserable once more; my style crush Kate Hudson looked a-m-aaazing and Lily Allen looked a bit like Hilda Ogden. I don't even know who won what - apart from the petite but gorgeous James McAvoy - but who cares when there are so many nice frocks on show?!

2. It's another day and another Hilton has been arrested for drink driving - this time the ridiculously named Barron. Are these children just so mega spoilt they don't understand reality? Or are they just really stupid? It just shows you that money can't buy you everything.

3. Valentine's Day is tomorrow - have you sent your card? Victoria Beckham was spotted buying one for David in NYC. I really don't like Posh but I think it's great that they are still together - it's the on positive message she gives young fans. Oh and if you scroll down the above link, you'll see the cutest pic of Cruz!

4. Vivienne Westwood is urging fellow Brit designers to show in the UK. Here, here to that. It's not very cool to be patriotic at the moment but unless we give the younger generation something to believe in - even if it is only fashion and music - this country will never be great again.

5. The Hollywood writers are ending their strike so it's all go for the Oscars. Hurrah! These red carpet events bring some glamour into what is usually a depressing month. It also gives me a chance to gen up on my film knowledge, which is badly needed at the moment. Can't believe I've only been out of that industry for 6 months and I've forgotten stuff. My team only came 7th last night in a local film quiz - shocking!

Pamper weekends and Holly Willougby's cleavage!

Holly Willougby shows off too much cleavage on Dancing On IceHere are the guilty pleasures I’ll be indulging in this weekend!

1. Enjoying the camp-fest that is Dancing On Ice. What better way to leave behind the weekend! The ice-skating shenanigans help ease me back into the working week. Plus, I love seeing how much cleavage Holly will have on show!

2. Watching a few rom-coms back to back, starting with How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days as I love the way Kate Hudson looks in that, especially in that yellow dress. These are the benefits of having a husband who works shifts!

3. Seeing which other celebrities have entered rehab. Latest news is that Kirsten Dunst has checked herself in, although E! Online has reports that say the opposite.

4. Taking the dog on a couple of long walks and then checking just
how many calories I've burnt!

5. Having a pamper day with facemasks, mini-manicure and a hair treatment. My favourite mask is this little beauty – the SK II treatment mask, however they’re very expensive so only use them when I get a freebie. They also make you look like Hannibal Lecter! I’m currently using – and loving – the Bliss triple oxgyen mask. It’s effective and works in only 5 mins!

Kate Hudson does pockets

Kate Hudson - Celebrity Style - Featured in It's Fashion, Dahling!Continuing my theme of stylish Kates, my celeb style favourite this week is the gorgeous Kate Hudson.

I once spotted her and her then husband walking through Soho and I have to say she’s darn pretty in the flesh (and not as skinny as I thought she’d be).


She's chic and modern but without looking like a fashionista. I love this dress, partly because of the pockets. I have a few dresses with pockets and there’s something greatly comforting about being able to walk around with your hands in your pockets.
Kate also always chooses great colours to wear, which as a fellow blonde, I always make note of.

However, I am slightly distracted by the gentleman in the background of this pic – is that Matthew McConaughey
?
