  • Love your style: Maggie Gyllenhaal
    The recently married Maggie Gyllenhaal is a New York gal through and through with her chic but quirky style.  She loves wearing black and navy but is also bold enough to wear prints on the red carpet (as she did at The Golden Globes this year).  Teaming her LBDs with ankle boots, Maggie loves to mix classic and modern styles and does so with ease.  A former Agent...

  • Love your style: Michelle Williams
    Remember Dawson’s Creek’s Jen Lindley?  The good girl gone bad, gone good, gone bad, gone good again?  While my contemporaries admired Joey Potter’s laid-back style, I was all about Jen’s indie rock chick cheerleader look.  There’s a complex style if ever I saw one - somehow the girl from the big city managed to swap sweet floral summerdresses...

  • Love your style: Emma Roberts
    She may only be 18 but acting royalty Emma Roberts has already found her feet where fashion is concerned.  On the red carpet she favours fun and flirty dresses and classy, chic shifts.  She mixes designer with high street styles - French Connection, Versace, Erin Fetherston, Juicy Couture and Topshop are favourites.  She always looks comfortable in her own skin and...

  • Love your style: Kate Mara
    Actress and girl about town Kate Mara is best known for her work on 24 and Brokeback Mountain.  A fixture on the LA and NY party circuit, Mara knows how to make an entrance.  Whether she’s front row at Zac Posen looking darling and demure, at a Chanel event dazzling in their latest couture collection, adding some much needed va-va-voom to the red carpet in eye...

  • Love your style: Heidi Klum
    The Project Runway presenter, supermodel and supermum Heidi Klum was not always known for her style but these days the Victoria’s Secret stunner is hard to ignore. It all started with that sensational red John Galliano gown she wore at the Oscars two years ago. Now a regular fixture on the red carpet, Heidi seldom puts a (Louboutin clad) foot wrong. Look and learn…

  • Love your style: Riley Keough
    Riley Keough is best known as Elvis Presley’s granddaughter, and many expected she would follow his musical footsteps with a singing career.  Instead, Lisa Marie’s daughter has established herself as a model and is readily becoming one to watch on the style front. Riley’s gorgeous surfer-girl locks and striking bone structure are the focus of...

  • London Fashion Week: Horace AW09
    While waiting in a crowded reception room for the Horace show, I found myself standing next to a group that perfectly encapsulated the Horace spirit - rainbow haired, pierced and dressed in fluid layers of jersey and denim, new generation punks that were a walking talking advert for the label. A favourite of Agyness Deyn, Horace’s AW09 collection was inspired by...

  • London Fashion Week: Sado AW09
    With some of the prettiest colour combinations I’ve seen, Carlotta Gherzi’s AW09 Sado collection featured simple silk pieces in grey, raspberry, orange and peach.  Prim puff sleeve blouses, boxy cropped jackets, and mini capes in yummy sherbet dip hues were worn with grey knee socks and raspberry platform ankle boots.  With a vaguely 70s feel to the...

  • London Fashion Week: Bernard Chandran AW09
    Bernard Chandran’s AW09 collection was inspired by the ‘romance of the Far East’ which apparently translates as metallics, voluminous shapes, and graphic prints. Lame, glitter and studs in silver, gunmetal and gold reflected the stark white walls of the On|Off venue at The Science Museum.

  • London Fashion Week: Betty Jackson AW09
    This year marks the 25th anniversary of London Fashion Week, a celebration of British designers which began in an Olympia car park and included a presentation from the legendary Betty Jackson. A quarter of a century later Jackson told
