Gemme Aterton Green Goddess with a Pop of Green

Wednesday, October 6th, 2010 at 12:00 am  

Gemma Arterton is truly such a beauty. The actress graced the screening of her now movie, Tamara Drewe (hosted by Cinema Society), in a classic Grecian inspired long black draped strapless which she finished off with a pop of green – a teal green  woven box clutch from the luxe brand Bottega Veneta.

Celebrity Style: Reese Witherspoon

Tuesday, July 27th, 2010 at 1:59 am  

I think Reese Witherspoon should wear dresses more often. She looks better in them than in her usual t-shirt-and-jeans outfits. For instance, this picture of her from last July 7; the actress was spotted bringing her son to a friend’s birthday party.

Isn’t this picture so refreshing to look at? The berry red dress looks very beautiful against her pale white skin and blond hair making her even more luminous; and she looks younger in it too! I also love how she played down the dress with a woven straw tote and a pair of thong sandals; it’s very well put together, and very summer perfect!

Love the look as much as I do? Get it with these:

Hurley Morgan YC Dress, on sale for US$23 (6pm.com); MARC by Marc Jacobs Eyewear, US$98 (Zappos.com); Chan Luu Agate Necklace, US$88 (Zappos.com); Bernardo Matrix Thong Sandals, US$115 (Zappos.com); Columbia Sand N Sea Straw Tote, US$70 (Zappos.com)
