Blogger Queen ThisMid30sLife is capturing frocks in her meme "Frock It" - every week she will post a photo of an outfit that caught her eye. Joining in are various other eagle-eyed amateur style critics. KateTakes5 already posted about THE frock that almost made me faint in horror. Eugenie and Beatrice displaying the fashion sense so obviously inherited from their mother.
We poured over the pictures of the rich and famous at the Royal Wedding, analysed which hat was too big and whose shoes were ridiculous (VictoriaB, are you listening?). We gasped in admiration, not only at Catherine's wedding dress but at her sister Pippa in that stunning gown, as BodforTea posted.
Like SAM, I loved Kate's (no not that Kate, the other one) Union Jack dress.
LifeWithAFussyEater showed that even normally self-assured slebs can get it wrong, while MotherVenting and Keira Knightly triumphed with a quirky yet simple dress.
If you gather a bunch of celebrities for the Met Ball in honour of McQueen then you are sure to see some fabulous frocks. Some of them were not my cup of tea, but this one worn by Salma Hayek is fabulous - interestingly it is from Sarah Burton for McQueen - the designer of Kate Middleton's wedding dress.
The cut shows off Salma's enviable curvy figure, the overlay of tulle making the dress more diva-ish. Or perhaps a Greek Goddess would be the correct description, as Salma showcases her flowing hair and glowing skin. Nude colours are difficult to wear, and can leave the wearer looking washed out and pale but this is the perfect colour for Salma. Stunning.
How beautiful. Wouldn't you love to wear this one day? Although if I wear this colour I look like I'm dead, as someone once helpfully told me.
ReplyDeleteWhy can't the Olsen twins have friends like that?
Thanks for joining in, FROCK IT now has 6 players! Yay!
Agreed, Salma looks absolutely stunning.
ReplyDeleteI think that Salma would look beautiful in a MacDonalds uniform frankly, but this gown is just a dream
