Golden Globes: Claire Danes In J. Mendel

Who: Claire Danes

Where: At the 69th Golden Globe Awards in Los Angeles

Wearing: A black and ecru couture J. Mendel draped front gown with embroidered cap sleeves, and open back detailing, inspired by a shorter pre-fall 2012 look, teamed with platinum earrings with princess cut diamonds from Bulgari’s High Jewellery Collection and a white gold bracelet with diamonds

Verdict: I love al the crystal embellishment detailing on the shoulders and around the waist – it kind of has a warrior-esq vibe to it – but as Claire rightly put it “is all about the back” I totally agree!!!

So who do you think has the best open back Claire or Zooey?

  • Sometimes you just need to add a touch of pixie dust to your look!!! Seriously, how cool are these makeup crystals from @thegypsyshrine - they are so perfect for festival season, to launch the new Peter Pan collection at Cath Kidston or even just because. I wore these across London, on the tube, at the shops, on the train home and I loved how people just don't care, they just smile, which in turn made me smile. Can I wear crystals and glitter all the time please?
  • 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?
