Style Highlights: Emma Watson

Emma looks stunning in this off-white Elie Saab design. The cut is simple--allowing the delicate details to shine. It truly is an amazing dress. Emma manages not to overwhelm the dress by keeping her makeup and accessories simple.

This Botegga Veneta creation is so unique and fresh. On any other actress it would've probably looked horrible. But there is a certain type of confidence and elegance that Emma possesses that allows her to still look stunning in this dress--even if the bottom half is very reminiscent of a bed sheet. The gold color is really beautiful and Emma copied it with the golden touches to her eye makeup.

Time for Emma to sparkle and shine in Balmain dress. It is a young look for a beautiful, young starlet. The asymmetrical cut of the gown adds interest and drama. Emma paired the look with wooden wedges to offset the futuristic look of the dress. Minimal jewelry and slicked back hair--the look is complete!

Celebrities Love Elie Saab

With a little magic from Elie Saab, these ladies look stunning when they step out onto the red-carpet. Elie Saab is known for making high fashion accessible for the main stream media. Its the best of both worlds. But which look is your favorite?

Red Carpet Style: Dakota Fanning

The recent star of The Runaways, a movie about the band of the same name, is no longer the little girl from Uptown Girls and Charlotte's Web. I was surprised  to discover that this girl has style. I didn't know until she started promoting New Moon.

She was on the cover of Teen Vogue and it was stunning. I did a post about it earlier. Please, go check it out. But without further ado, a look at Ms. Fanning's impecible style. Enjoy!

The sparkle details on the shoulders and the sheer neckalce show off skin without becoming too vulgur. Balance and proportion are key with girls that young. I applaude Dakota for not dressing to shock people by showing as much skin as possible. But shes makes people notice with her impecible sense of style. Not very many people can make Haute Couture fit into main-stream. I also love her makeup. She looks fresh and rosy-cheeked.

Then there's that nude colored Elie Saab look that is to die for. Hello? The embrodiered cocktail dress is effortless and light. She looks confident put together and any girl, worth her weight in Chanel clothes, would want that dress. She has this ability to sell products. Her Brian Atwoods are pretty amazing too.

While Dakota's other two looks were soft and utterly femine. She also looks equally beautiful in these more structured looks. In that leather Valentino look she looks equal parts soft and tough. My favorite type of look. The neutral colors make her blue eyes pop and I'm obsessed with her black statement ring.

Then she pairs her ivory studded/embrodered dress with the perfect accesory. Yes. Of course I mean her platform purple Brian Atwood pumps. They're the perfect pop of color and I will always be a fan of purple Atwoods. :) Always. I just need to get myself a pair. And soon.

Doesn't she look absolutely stunning. I'm a little envious of her shiny, blonde hair. So pretty. :) I'm excited to see what the future has in store for this talented actress. I really wanted to see The Runaways but I just never got around to it. If you saw it what did you think?

Red Carpet Style: Mila Kunis

This girl has come a long way since her days on That 70's Show. Mila Kunis is now an actress who is starring alongside Oscar-Award winning actresses and her career will only grow from this point. And not only is Mila Kunis an amazing actress, the girl can also pull off an outfit like nobody's business. That's pretty impressive.

Mila Kunis in Alexander McQueen [left] and in a simple pencil skirt, greige pumps, and crisp white blouse [right].

In my opinion, Mila Kunis was by far the best-dressed that night at the SAG awards. Her soft waves mimicked the soft waves and the liquid print on the skirt of her dress. This dress was stunning and her beautiful smile and self-confidence helped her own that night. There isn't one thing I would change.

This look is completely different. This is how to look sophisticated and chic--whether you're at work or at The Four Seasons, like Mila. She doesn't look old or snobby, she looks professional and approachable. I love the elegant draping of her sleeveless top. I want to steal it for my closet!

This floral mini is too cute. I wish the color or the print was a little lighter, so that the camera could capture the beautiful floral detailing but that's just me picking at details now. This dress is so structural and it is tailored to fit her body like a glove. Beautiful.

I was stunned when I first saw Mila in this dress. The blush color contrasts against her skin, the black background, and the red carpet beautifully. The cut was fantastic. The slit was perfection. And I have been lusting after those Christian Louboutins for months now.

Which look was your favorite? Leave your opinion in the comments! Thank you, again, for reading. It means so much to me. Please come back tomorrow. I'll be here waiting.

Red Carpet Style: Carey Mulligan

Carey Mulligan is dressed in a mustard chiffon dress [left] and vintage Prada [right].

I have to admit that I prefer Carey's hair with a slight wave to her short hair. It adds texture and demension. I also perfer her with that carefree smile on her face. It doesn't appear forced but like a moment of pure happiness. She has a great style. But on another note that pleated mustard dress is to die for. It hits her at the right spot on the knee and skims her body.

Then that Prada dress is structured and the perfect summer dress. The print is nostalgic. The color from the print seems to almost match her lip color perfectly. The fitted belt draws in her waist and the nude shoes give the illusion that she is taller. Very impresed. :)

When I first noticed Carey, I was quickly impressed with her super-chic British style. I'm in love with British style--its just so different from American fashion. Both of these looks are rather sub-dued but the punch comes for the details rather than the bold color. The Mouret garmet fits her body like a glove and the proportions are perfection. She appears confident and professional. Those Fendi cut-out shoes balance the geometic inspiration from the garment.

Then there is the Elie Saab piece. Elie Saab is known for elegance and femininity. The sheer skirt almost appears like fringe. Or is it? I can't tell. Carey paired the look with simple black pumps, in an effort not to draw any attention from the delicate bodice--its lace is both sexy and classy at the same time.
