Natalie Portman lookin’ casual chic in just t-shirt and jeans - and I love that black clutch! The wayfarers trend is not leaving anytime soon. It has been said that the Venice Film Festival this year wasn’t impressive - oh well. Good times. And, bad times hurr.
Double Strand Pearls
If pearls are good enough for Carrie Bradshaw, they’re good enough for me. It seems like celebs are lovin’ pearls and the trick is to layer them with multiple strands while pairing with the classic black dress. Of course, double is what Ashlee Simpson, Sarah Jessica Parker and Gwyneth Paltrow are doing.
Bright Jackets
There is nothing more show-stopping than loud, bright colours! I love Rihanna’s spunky hot pink jacket. Even Katherine Heigl and Kim Kardashian are sporting bright jackets with dark denim. Smart!
Leather Mini Skirts
Bring back the 80s staple! I used to be vegan, so I’m against the usage of real leather. You can opt for latex or faux leather like Nicky HIlton. Selita Ebanks and Ashley Olsen are pairing their minis wiht monotones and fierce shoes!
Short Suits
Show off your long legs by coordinating your black blazers with shorts like Anne Hathaway, Rihanna and Natalie Portman. I love how Rihanna paired it with a black sheer top and bright orange heels! Otherwise, you can add a little colour like Natalie with a Maroon tee.
Shimmery Beige Dress
Don’t be afraid to shine amongst the crowd. Neutral with a little sparkle can be very alluring and sexy. Take the cue from Claire Danes, Mila Kunis and Heidi Klum.
The 2008 Cannes Film Festival has finally ended. Everyone cheered Laurent Cantet’s The Class which is the first French film to win the Palme d’Or Award since 1987. Fash-E has seen some fabulous couture gowns and designer dresses during this event. Fabsugar collated the best dressed and here’s our take on it:
Fash-E’s Best Dressed Award goes to… Natalie Portman in Givenchy! All the talk about the big volume, I don’t care. I think the origami-pleated dress is flirty and very young.
Gladiator heels! I’ve been seeing gladiators everywhere in town now. Gwyneth Paltrow makes this Giuseppe Zanotti for Balmain gladiator heels look red-carpet worthy by pairing it with a sleek black Celine dress.
In all royalty, Dita Von Teese is looking classy in royal purple Jean Paul Gaultier. I’m impressed by the way the long purple beads trace the silhouette of the dress.
The Queen of Pop, Madonna looks like a billion bucks in Chanel couture. This fringe sequin dress is one-of-a-kind and she exudes confidence in it.
Georgina Chapman in her own Marchesa glided ball gown. I love the gold peacock design, what a masterpiece.
Miss Columbia, Valerie Dominguez is such a tall beauty with her sheer black chiffon gown. Very elegant!
Penelope Cruz looks stunning beautiful in this teal design by L’Wren Scott. I love the cute maroon buttons on the side.

It’s the Cannes Film Festival once again! The hottest film festival where some of the best artsy fartsy filmmakers rub shoulders with some of the greatest actors in the world. It may not be the most exciting red carpet event but we are all ecstatic to hear bout Angelina Jolie’s double bundle of joy (still in the oven!). So here are the best from the South of France:
Crazy girl, Juliette Lewis and hippie-lookin’ Mischa Barton. For once, they both look fab.
Mummy-to-be-again, Angelina Jolie is maternally flashy in err, lobster print dress?
Natalie Portman plays royalty at her first day of judging work. Hot!
Eva Longoria and Asian beauty, Aishwarya Rai both looked stunning.

I know I’m missing some awesome red carpet pictures. I’m struggling without my Photoshop here! Yours truly is still on holiday till Tuesday - bloggers get a break right? I’m still trying to blog besides my hectic schedule (I’m super tired now after a 10-hour ride long journey). Will blog properly soon. 652 visits yesterday - is Claudia Schiffer that popular?
Natalie Portman: Beautiful, talented actress (not to mentioned, Oscar-nominated), Harvard Grad, style icon and now, eco-evangelist. What can you not to like about this amazing woman? I envy her because my boyfriend thinks she’s gorgeous - but I approve his excellent taste. Better Natalie, than Pamela Anderson.
Yesterday, Miss Portman launched her virgin line of limited edition ‘vegan shoes’. Te Casan’s values listed “Every human being is a limited edition. We offer every woman the possibility to express herself in her own way – through limited edition shoes.”
As a proud, enterprising Vegan, Natalie said, “As a vegan, it’s been challenging finding designer shoes made of alternative materials. This collection offers a great selection without compromising quality or style.”
But hey, there’s a catch: Her shoes cost between a whopping range of USD$255 to USD$275! Ouch, talk about feeling the pinch in your pocket. Why being eco-friendly comes with such a high price-tag? It’s like paying the extra dollar for organic food, and vegan products.
Her shoes are now ready for pre-order for you crazy fashionistas out there. I’m sticking to my “McDonald’s” of shoes, thank you.
