The SAG Awards – Pick of the dresses
And the awards bandwagon rolls on. This time it was the SAG awards, which, traditionally, is a slightly more dressed down affair than the Golden Globes and The Oscars. On this occasion though, there were some really nice dresses, although nothing that would actually make you gasp. Very bright or black and white seemed to be the order of the night, although there were some notable additions of sparkle from Helen Hunt and a sizzling Naomi Watts. Here are some of the key trends, the style winners and losers from a glamorous night. Glamorous Sparkle Naomi Watts was a definite contender for best dressed. Wearing a silver strapless sheath from…

Doris Day – forgotten style icon?
One of the nicest things about taking a little time to chill over the Christmas period has been the opportunity to catch up on some television. I was delighted to see that one of my favourite channels, BBC 4, was dedicating some time to look at Hollywood Goddesses, the icons that still light up our screens today. Ava Gardner, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe and Clara Bow were the main focus, but I was also really excited to see a documentary about one of my favourite stars, Doris Day.

Rooney Mara – New style crush.
I’m a little obsessed with Rooney Mara at the moment. The star of the American version of ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’, she barely registered on the fashion Richter scale before the start of filming, but now she is frankly blowing me away with her combination of Snow White beauty and her impeccable style choices. If ever a girl was crying out for black hair, it was this girl. And with alabaster skin, a severe fringe and a wardrobe consisting of baby pink Calvin Klein, Givenchy couture and sigh! Prabal Gurung, Rooney is not putting a foot wrong style wise. And with a slew of Magazine covers under her…
