Top 10 Best Dressed Female Celebrities

There are some women who you acknowledge look good, and then there are those that look so amazing that it is almost sickening. 

However, rather than cast envious glances in their direction, you should take a leaf out of their books and, while you might not be able to stretch your finances to aspirational designer brands and luxury items, you can still add more than a touch of glamour to your appearance.

We looked at the top 10 best-dressed female celebrities from around the world.

1. Victoria Beckham

Love her or hate her – and there are plenty of people in both camps – it is difficult to argue against how amazing she looks, and not just when she has her hubby on her arm, either. Wear big sunglasses, learn to pout, and you are halfway to the look already!

 

 2. Kristen Stewart

Not content with just one polarising celebrity, we move to the star of the Twilight films, which are either teenage drivel or cinematic genius depending on the camp you are in. Whatever your opinion, there is no denying that Stewart looks amazing.

 3. Kim Kardashian

This will probably be a controversial choice, but while you may not like certain elements of her style, she turns heads wherever she goes and gains admiring glances the world over, even when heavily pregnant, so she must be doing something right.

 4. Lady Gaga

While the wheelchair she is using while she recovers from surgery on her leg does her no favours, when Gaga is dressed in something other than parcel tape or a dress made from meat, she usually looks pretty good.

5. Nicole Richie

It is good to see Nicole finally making a mark for something other than being in a show with Paris Hilton a few years ago, and having her own exclusive fashion label is certainly helping.

6. Emma Watson

The awkward young actress who made her name in the Harry Potter films has grown into a stunning woman, often seen in the best designer dresses. The mark of a beautiful lady is on her, too: she looks great even when dressed down.

7. Gwen Stefani

Although a No Doubt reunion is something we would have happily gone without, Gwen has been a fashion icon for much of the past 20years, and is still going strong even today.

8. Nicola Roberts

Whoever would have thought that ‘the ginger one from Girls Aloud’ would go on to be one of the more successful outside of the group? Okay, she doesn’t have the Cheryl Cole level of attention and glamour, but she is most definitely the leading fashionista of the group.

9. Perrie Edwards

We stick with manufactured girl bands for the next entry and, although she obviously gets a lot of help in the wardrobe department, Little Mix’s only actual singer is able to pull off some of the most quirky and daring outfits we’ve seen for a long time.

10. Rita Ora

They just keep coming from the music industry. Rita made her mark around the world last year, as much for her amazing style sense as for her refreshing, edgy music releases.

Aisha is a fashion writer with an interest in celebrity fashion, as well as specific niche and cultural styles such as Islamic clothing and hip-hop styling.

Kim Kardashian Wedding VS. Average Weddings

If you’re about to get married you’re probably going through a lot of stress. There are a gazillion things to consider when planning a wedding. You have to find the perfect location for the wedding ceremony and the reception, figure out which catering service to employ and what kind of food to serve, choose the motif and find someone who can make the dresses, and more!

Like anyone who works hard and is dedicated to succeed, you need a breather. Read through this infographic provided by Brilliance which lists down a comparison of how much the wedding of Kim Kardashian to Chris Humpries really cost as compared to how much is spent for a regular wedding. Reading about this will certainly remind you that even though they spent millions of dollars, their marriage only lasted a mere 72 days. A very costly, shortlived married life for the ex-partners in life. You can then think about how much you love the person you are getting married to and smile because you’re certain that even if you won’t spend as much as Kardashian did, your marriage will be real and will last longer.

Celebrity Engagement Rings

Celebrity Engagement Rings

Celebrities always do everything bigger, bolder and with more bang than the rest of us civilian folk.

When it comes to engagement rings for some of these A-list leading ladies, big and bold is no exception. The ladies of the celebrity world sport some of the biggest and brightest bling in the world on their left hand. It’s also no surprise that when one of these popular women says yes to the big question, knockoffs of their rings hit the market within weeks. Let’s take a look at some of the biggest and best celebrity engagement rings.

Without a doubt, one of the most popular and most beautiful engagement rings recently has got to be the one give to Kate Middleton by Prince William. The ring she wears on her left hand once belonged to William’s mother, Princess Diana. Kate’s ring is an 18 carat blue oval sapphire surrounded by white diamonds. Once the news came out that William had proposed and the world got a look of the ring, jewelry designers worked feverishly to have replicas on their shelves the next day. Blue sapphires remain a popular choice for engagement rings as a unique option from the traditional white diamond. Other celebrities have a blue sapphire perched on their left ring finger including Penelope Cruz who has a 3 carat oval stunner surrounded by white diamonds.

Other celebrities choose to go with a traditional diamond but they still don’t fail to impress. Hillary Duff has a gigantic diamond on her left hand. Her NHL star husband gave her a 14 carat princess cut diamond flanked on either side by smaller diamonds. It is estimated that her ring is worth $1 million! Kim and Khloe Kardashian also have managed to get some serious bling on their fingers as well. Khloe was given a 9 carat square cut diamond ring that has diamonds all around the band. Kim Kardashian’s ring beat out her sister coming in at a shocking 20.5 carats. Kim’s ring has a 16.5 emerald cut diamond in the center which is flanked by two 2 carat trapezoid cut diamonds. Her ring is worth an estimated $3 million and can probably be seen from space!

The Kardashian sisters aren’t the only ones sporting massive engagement rings. Tennis star Anna Kournikova wears a gorgeous 11 carat pear cut pink diamond ring with two Trillian white diamonds on either side. Beyonce is another celebrity wearing a massie diamond on her left hand. Jay-Z popped the question and gave Beyonce an 18 carat diamond dazzler. Her ring is a flawless, emerald cut white diamond supposedly worth $5 million. It is even said that Beyonce can’t wear her ring out in public very often because it is too valuable. Now that is serious bling.

There are plenty of other celebrities out there with gigantic engagement rings and the public will continue to be dazzled by these beauties. Celebrities will continue to try to have the biggest and best ring out there and jewelry designers will be right on their heels issuing replicas that are a bit more affordable so that all of us can have a little piece of Hollywood glamour.

Celebrities and Sunglasses Trends for 2011


THE must have styles for ‘11 include oversized frames, printed designs and retro shapes such as the 50s “cat eye” variety once popularised by icon Audrey Hepburn.

The sun might not have fully put its hat on in 2011 yet but that has not stopped the A List from showcasing the sunglasses trends that were hot on the catwalk earlier on in the year. In case you do not know, THE must have styles for ‘11 include oversized frames, printed designs and retro shapes such as the 50s “cat eye” variety once popularised by icon Audrey Hepburn.

Universally flattering, oversized, butterfly shaped sunnies have donned the faces of many famous individuals recently including pop starlet Rihanna, socialite Kim Kardashian, actress Nicole Ritchie and heiress Paris Hilton. Although the Prada PR18IS (with an RRP of £140) version of these glasses have proved popular with many ladies of high social stature, the rest of us will probably have to wait for discount fashion stores such as the infamous Primark to catch up with the trend once the summer season sets in!

Rounded, oversized sunglasses have also recently been favoured by the likes of ex-Spice Girl Posh, Disney sweetheart Miley Cyrus and British models Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell, that latter of which has been chosen as the face of Dolce and Gabbana’s latest shades collection. Appropriately named Animalier, the collection integrates many animal prints into the oversized eyewear movement. Floral printed sunnies are a little “last year” but still favourable with the rich and famous – actress Jessica Alba was recently snapped with a set perched upon her nose.

Large, stripy eye protection meanwhile has also proved a hit, with the fashionably eccentric Marina Diamandis (of the band Marina and the Diamonds) pulling the look off exceptionally well in London recently with her circular, Lennon-esque white a red striped pair (though she has also owns an identical pair in turquoise blue). Hopefully we will see more celebrities experimenting with brightly coloured shades in the wake of this fashion success!

Cat eye glasses – which are wider at the top than they are at the bottom – have been a recent favourite of actress Scarlett Johannson and pop tarts Katy Perry and Lady Gaga. Miu Miu’s retro eyewear collection was also well received when it was revealed on the runways of Paris Fashion Week just seven days ago.

Whatever style of sunglasses you decided to choose, be sure to remember one thing; this year, sunglasses are a key accessory to have fun with! If you are usually too much of a wallflower to don extravagant lenses, then a festival is the perfect time to let go of your fashion inhibitions! You should also remember that confidence is vital to pulling off a quirky accessory or outfit.
