Oscars 2013: Amy Adams In Oscar de la Renta

Oscars amy adams Oscars 2013: Amy Adams In Oscar de la Renta %tagWho: Nominee Amy Adams

Where: At the 85th Annual Academy awards held in Los Angeles

Wearing: A strapless pale blue Oscar de la Renta gown with full ruffled skirt, teamed with a diamond bracelet and drop earrings

Verdict: I do love a Princess moment, as you know, and this is Amy Adams. It is a gorgeous Oscar de la Renta gown, I love the never-ending ruffle tiers, I adore the sweetheart neckline, I love the drama of the huge train, I just wish that Amy wasn’t so afraid of colour.

The icy blue is nice, it works against her skintone and her auburn hair, I just would have like to have seen her embrace a little more colour. I am just being picky – as a bright shade would have made this one of my best dressed looks of the night.

But come if you can’t go for an over the top gown like this at the Oscars when can you!!!

BAFTA Awards: Amy Adams Wearing Elie Saab

bafta amy adams eliesaab BAFTA Awards: Amy Adams Wearing Elie Saab %tagWho: Amy Adams

Where: At the 2013 EE British Academy Film Awards held at the Royal Opera House in London

Wearing: A black lace Elie Saab gown from the Haute Couture autumn/winter 2013 collection, featuring Chantilly lace and embroidery to the bodice, back and sleeves, and a thigh-high split to the front, teamed with gold Casadei heels and Fabergé earrings

Verdict: This gorgeous evening gown was pure glamour and stood out on last night’s BAFTA red carpet as one of the most exquisite black dresses and bless Amy she must have been freezing with all that lace on show.

When I first saw this gown on Amy I have to be honest I thought it was a little too sexy for her, she is normally elegant and glamorous, where as this is sex-bomb territory, but you know she pull it off perfectly and I think added the gold platform heels was a great touch.

I also have to give her one of the best hair-dos of the night as well, I love her top knot, a great hairstyle for the snowy conditions, and it allowed her to show off those statement ruby and diamond earrings.

This sexy look was unexpected from Amy – but I love it – do you think she pulls it off?

LACMA 2012 Art + Film Gala: Amy Adams vs Cameron Diaz In Gucci Yellow

Gucci amy vs cameron LACMA 2012 Art + Film Gala: Amy Adams vs Cameron Diaz In Gucci Yellow %tag

On Saturday, a host of celebrities hit the red carpet to attend the LACMA 2012 Art + Film Gala host by Gucci honouring Ed Ruscha and Stanley Kubrick – I have already gushed about Rosie, but two other ladies that also impressed me were Amy Adams and Cameron Diaz both wearing yellow.

Both went for spring/summer 2013 collection looks, Cameron opted for a short number showing off her fab legs, whereas Amy went for an elegant floor-skimming gown with a bejewelled waistband. Both look amazing, both really pull off this tricky yellow colour, not quite sunshine yellow, not quite mustard it is somewhere in-between  and in some photographs it even looked a little neon, but I love the contrast of the short and long it made both looks stand out for me.

Amy’s look is more traditional for a gala even, it is floor-length, has added sparkle with the waistband and her clutch and I love the strapless silhouette - but there is something about Cameron’s bell-sleeve belted mini that is just so fun and I absolutely love the crystal-embellished floral neckline.

Which girl in yellow gets your vote – Amy or Cameron? Even with Cameron’s legs looking amazing in this dress I am going to have to say that Amy’s long gown just pips her.

Movie Review: The Muppets – Kermit and Miss Piggy Rock

muppetsfilms4 Movie Review: The Muppets Kermit and Miss Piggy Rock %tag

There is a charm about the Muppets that just instantly makes me smile. OK for sure there is a cheesiness about Kermit and the gang, but surely that is what totally makes the franchise adorable, and has made kids and adults a like excited for their return to the big screen.

What I loved about this flick is that Disney came right out and said it the Muppets are nobodies, with the troupe all disbanded, Kermit and Miss Piggy separated and their theatre crumbling away – they leave it to Walter, the world’s biggest Muppet fan, his brother Gary played by Jason Segel and his girlfriend played by Amy Adams to rally the gang, stage the greatest Muppet Telethon ever, oh and save the day from an oil tycoon destroying the Muppets theatre.

No one said the story had to be complex, it is the simplicity that makes it work, and I loved that it was packed full of singing and dance numbers, a touch of adult humour, great celebrity cameos from the likes of Jack Black, Whoopi Goldberg and Mickey Rooney, and most of all the off-beat comedy that the Muppets are best known for.

My favourite scenes had to be the trip down memory lane introducing all the Muppets to a new audience with the road trip, from picking up Fozzie who now performs at a Reno casino; Gonzo who is a high-powered plumbing businessman; and the best bit is when they discover Miss Piggy as a fashion editor for Paris Vogue with Emily Blunt as her secretary, a nod to her role in The Devil Wears Prada - completely genius.

The Muppets hits cinemas today, and trust me if you don’t leave the theatre smiling there is seriously something wrong with you.

Who: Best supporting actress nominee, Amy Adams, for her role in The Fighter

Where: Arriving at the 83rd Academy Awards in Hollywood, California

Wearing: A navy floor-length beaded L’Wren Scott gown, teamed with an amazing diamond and emerald Cartier necklace worth a staggering $1.35 million

Verdict: Unique colour, and exquiste detailing, I love this gown. It will definitely be in my best dressed list.

But I am going to be a little controversial, I would have left the necklace in the store, I get that she will get lots of headlines due to how much it is worth, but seriously that this dress would have been enough.
