Cannes: Gucci Taking Over Film Festival

We’ve seen Salma Hayek grace the red carpet in the first Gucci Première couture frock this Cannes film festival and it seems that Gucci have taken over the French riviera. This weekend Gucci Creative Director Frida Giannini and Vanity Fair Editor Graydon Carter co-hosted the Vanity Fair/Gucci party. The intimate dinner at the Hotel du Cap was to celebrate Martin Scorsese and the 20 year anniversary of The Film Foundation.

Who: Singer/actress Jennifer Lopez  (with Gucci’s Creative Director Frida Giannini)

Wearing: A one of a kind grey moraccain silk one shoulder Gucci cocktail dress, with pleated organza and georgette ruffle detail on the shoulder and a grey satin clutch with jewel detail

Verdict: I love this colour on J-Lo and I am glad that the big hair is back. But for me what makes this frock is the ruffles on the shoulder – love!!

Who: Naomi Watts

Wearing: A Gucci Fall Winter 2010/11 black sequined dress with back cut out detail

Verdict: I love this flirty cocktail dress and it is nice to see Naomi wearing something fun – also I am a sucker for a red carpet frock with an open back!

  • The house is finally coming together, I'm slowly deciding what sort of feel I want for each room. One thing I do know is that I have to fill the house with plants and try and keep them alive they really do fill a room when you don't have quite enough furniture. Also, I think Falcon is loving the new house, I can imagine that he'll be found here often in the winter.
  • Lots of people asking for a close up of those amazing @lilylulufashion sneakers - so here you are folks - aren't they even more beautiful. You know how much I love a dupe and these are so like the Puma ones I couldn't resist as they are only £20. Fancy a pair I have a 15% off code just use DANIS15. www.lilylulufashion.com
  • Best thing about moving house has to be discovering new places. @sylviassparkles took me to the cutest spot for lunch in the Kent countryside it was perfect eating tapas in the sunshine and I'm impressed I didn't get it all down my Barbie tee!!! Also, can we talk about these OTT girlie trainers - it really is all about oversized bows - I love them and they were only £20.
  • There is something so free and inspiring about starring out to sea and I'm so pleased that I now live a short drive from here. Today I needed a breather, I drove to the beach and just wandered and thought about my very long to-do list and when I got back to my desk it seemed to click in to place. I'm not sure if it's the sea air, the sunshine or the fact I'm just more content than I've been all year but I'm so full of ideas and can't wait to share them all with you guys. How has your Tuesday been?
  • Sorry I haven't posted in like forever, OK like two weeks, but that's an eternity isn't it in social? I had a great reason as my husband and I finally moved into our 'forever home' and isn't she a beauty. . It took us an age to find the perfect house but we instantly knew that we wanted to spend our lives here, the house is gorgeous, needs a little TLC but what Grade II listed building doesn't, it has enough garden for Falcon to run crazy, and it has the charming village life we were after including a fab pub at the end of the road. It is also so close to the beach and I can't even tell you how quiet it is here, I'm in heaven. . There's still so much to be done, but that's the fun isn't it in moving, I'm so excited about vintage shopping for furniture pieces to fill our beautiful home, designing my dream kitchen, and finding the perfect sofa - and I promise to share our progress with you all.
  • As you guys know I love a cute pair of specs, I actually discovered I have like 20 pairs while packing, but these blue framed beauties from @oqstories are fast becoming my favourite pair. I get asked a lot why do I not opt for contacts, but with frames like this why would I need to. Are you team specs or contacts?
  • When the sun comes out and you decide to clear your head and escape from a house of packed boxes to get some fresh air and a little exercise. Seriously, the best medicine for a stressful move is getting outdoors. How's your Thursday going?
  • You probably already know that I love a bargain but can you believe that this summery skirt was only £13 from @ASOS? Also, this bag from @Mango is only £15 and it is the perfect shade of pink. . Shop the skirt and bag via screenshot or by 'liking' this pic with @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2rQrf @liketoknow.it.europe #LTKSaleAlert #LTKUnder50 #LTKStyleTip #LTKItBag
