The 10 Best Dressed of the Week

Following this weeks trend here on Style Spot, three of the best dressed on the list are wearing sparkly sequins. I'm a huge fan of sequins, and I'm afraid you just have to bear with me. It's just one of those things that I can't cure. Even though there are plenty of outfits focusing on the glitz and the glamour on the list, there are three really great everyday outfits, and I can tell you that Kate Moss is the brain behind one of them.

10. Sienna Miller

Sienna Miller is one of those who inspires me most when it comes to style. Her style does go up and down, but when she gets it right she really gets it right. Her outfits at the airport are also an inspiration most of the time, as they are not too fussy, but laidback and stylish at the same time. Just like this one. Comfy skinny jeans, a leather jacket and a few great accessories, like a big bag and a scarf.

9. Olivia Wilde

This is the first sequin outfit on the list. Olivia Wilde is wearing this beautiful and classic piece by Michael Kors. I read on The Fashion Spot that some find her looking older than she is in this dress, but I think it suits her very well. She has such a strong face that she can wear this dramatic outfit without looking like a witch (which is quite easy when you're wearing a long black dress).

8. Kate Moss

Not many can pull off a 70s inspired sequin jumpsuit, but Kate Moss most definitely can. I wish I was brave enough to wear this piece which she wore to the launch of her last collection for TopShop, but I doubt that I would look nowhere near as good as Kate. The bangs and the red lipstick completes this look perfectly.

7. Anne Hathaway

Anne Hathaway also wore a black jumpsuit this week, but left the sequins at home. I love the lace detail both on the chest area and at the bottom.  She kept it simple, but fun at the same time by wearing high black patent heels, colourful nail polish and a sparkly cocktail ring. Very chic indeed.

6. Stephanie Pratt

I am as surprised as you might be that I have given Stephanie the 6th place, but I really do like this outfit. Especially the details such as the necklace and the belt. I used to be quite the devoted "The Hills" watcher, and I saw a change in Stephanie's style in the last season. A change which was for the better. But back to the outfit: I'd maybe change the skirt and wear more low-key shoes with this if I were her.



5. Eva Mendes

I can always rely on Eva Mendes wearing a great outfit every week. She always looks stunning, and I believe that if she wore only a potato sack she would look amazing as well. I adore this floaty, chocolate brown piece teamed together with gold accessories and nude heels. Spot on as always.

4. Behati Prinsloo

Apart from Kate Moss, the model who has the best style in my opinion, is Behati Prinsloo. She has this cool and special something about her, and she projects it so well into her everyday outfits. There is absolutely nothing I would change about this outfit. Oh leopard coat, please come and live in my closet? And bring the rest with you.

3. Kate Moss

This is a standard outfit by Kate Moss, but it is oh-so brilliant. Even though I feel like I've seen a similar outfit on Kate before, she continues to wow me with her style choices. I want this camel coat so bad that my insides hurt, and I could easily wear those boots every day. A visit to Kate's closet would be an amazing dream come true.

2. Carey Mulligan

I fell in love with this outfit the instant I saw it, and it's mainly because of the combination of colours. I really like it when an outfit consists of basic colours, such as white, black and grey, and a bright colour is added as an great detail. The electric blue heels makes this lovely outfit so exciting. Carey Mulligan carries it so well.

1. Natalia Vodianova

I posted this outfit on Friday, so you know I love this. And when I say love, I mean LOVE! Natalia Vodianova is the perfect woman for this dress designed by Balmain, and she has chosen excellent accessories to wear with it. She could easily have looked like a walking Christmas tree, but instead she resembles a perfect angel dazzling at the top of it.

A Friday Full of Sequins

On Monday, the Harper's Bazaar Women of the Year Awards was held in London. Natalia Vodianova appeared in this incredible sequined piece from the Balmain fall 2010 collection, making her the sparkling star of the evening. As a big fan of Natalia, Balmain and sequins, it's no surprise that this is combination that makes me very happy and inspired. It's also a great inspiration for the festive season which is just around the corner, and I'd like to find a dress like this to wear to some of the Christmas parties. Probably easier said than done!

Natalia Vodianova is also featured on the cover of the December issue of Harper's Bazaar, wearing Balmain. Many of the magazines December issues are obsessed with sequins at the moment, like UK Elle with Anne Hathaway in Balmain and Alessandra Ambrosio in Pucci on the cover of Vogue Nippon. I'm loving it!

Blake Lively Sparkles

Last night, Blake Lively attended the opening of the Realm Boutique in NYC, wearing this sparkly outfit. Everyone who has followed Style Spot for a while knows how much I love sequins, so it might not come as a surprise that I am posting this outfit. One of my favourite ways to wear sequins is to tone it down a bit and wear it with something a bit more tough, like denim or, as in this case, an oversized, simple shirt. I like Blake's combination a lot as it reminds me a lot of her character's style, Serena, in Gossip Girl. Still, I am not sure about the brown belt. When I look at this outfit, I sometime love it and other times I hate it. Knowing me, I think I'll land on the decision that I love it.

What about you? Do you like this outfit? Would you have something different with it?

Vogue Nippon Getting Festive

The December 2010 issues are popping up, and according to the fashion industry it's time to be thinking about Christmas soon (even though it's still only October!). Ah well, there is no lagging behind when it comes to fashion. I wouldn't say that I am ready for Christmas yet (don't get me wrong, I LOVE Christmas!), but this cover for Vogue Nippon definitely puts me in a festive mood. It must be the sequined Emilio Pucci dress from the fall 2010 collection, and all the gold jewelry.

Also, I must admit that I love the blue lipstick used for the cover. I never used to be such a big fan of blue make-up, but lately it seems like I have been loving it since I praised the blue eyeshadow used for the cover of the November issue of Vogue Paris.

I absolutely adore the jewelry used in the photo above. It's the kind of unique pieces that you expect Olivia Palermo to wear. Hmm, I am already planning to wear lots of sequins and glitter together with large pieces of jewelry this Christmas...I wonder why?

The French Wearing French


I am a big fan of contrasts, and that is why I think Clemence Poesy looks great in this outfit. The t-shirt, jeans and boots makes this initially a grunge otufit, but the oh-so fabulous Balmain jacket from the fall '11 season brings the outfit to a whole different level. You wouldn't think that uch an exquisite, beautiful piece of work could work with such everyday clothes, but in fact that is what makes this so brilliant. 


How would you wear this sequined Balmain piece if you owned it?

Drew Barrymore

I like a lot of the outfits that Drew Barrymore has been wearing lately, and here are some of my favourites. Which is your favourite of these three? Mine is no. 2.

Silver sequins

Ohhhh, this is gorgeous! I'll have to search the vintage stores and see if I can find something similar. Think how perfect to just throw this over your shoulders when the summer sun has gone to bed, but you're still outside and wide awake, ready for more fun!

Sparkles and denim

I am sorry to bombard you with sequins, but my love for it is so strong that I can't tame it. This shows my favourite way to wear sequins: together with rough denim.
