Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year awards…the key looks.
The end of the year always sees a flurry of activity for fashion awards. Harper’s Bazaar’s December issue announced their women of the year, and the awards ceremony, as you would expect, attracted a very fashionable crowd which included double Delavigne’s, two generations of model Le Bon’s, and a whole host of 1990s supermodels. Here are the key trends from the night. If in doubt – wear black! Daisy Lowe in her ringmaster costume, Yasmin Le Bon defying age, Laura Bailey, Claudia Winkleman, Liberty Ross, Sophie Dahl and Natalia Vodianova, all these ladies had one thing in common.

MTV EMA’S – The best looks.
Sunday saw the MTV European Music Awards. Lady divas were out in force with Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Jessie J and Katy B all in attendance. But, as seems to be usual from the MTV fright shows, seriously good fashion looks were a bit thin on the ground. Lady Gaga looked like she’d lost her heart to a starship trouper in futuristic Paco Rabanne,Katy Perry came as a bad Frenchie from Grease lookalike complete with kitsch 50s outfit and pink hair, whilst Jennifer Metcalfe wore Olivia Newton John’s bad girl trousers from the same film. Still, there were a few looks worth checking out again, and here they are. Jessie…

X Factor Fashion – Kelly’s back to turn up the heat.
This was a pretty special week even by X Factor standards. Kelly Rowland was back after recovering from the devastating illness that had left her with the ‘worst pretending to be ill’ voice ever. Frankie Cocozza was back to fight another week, and Louis and Gary were most definitely not enjoying each others company. Not all sunshine and smiles, that’s for sure. But this was a vintage week for X Factor style. And with Florence Welch as the amazing musical guest wearing a glorious Art Deco style design,and Mischa B looking fierce in an Oasis tailcoat, this was the best fashion display yet from this series.
