Who Dressed Well This Week? Anne Hathaway

Super quick 'Who Dressed Well This Week?' because I am being whisked out the door as I type!

Well, this week there could only be one answer to that question and it is Anne Hathaway, wearing Alexander McQueen to the UK premiere of One Day. The dress is gorgeous on Hathaway and it is clear that she is following through on her on gratitude "to Kate Middleton for dressing like a lady."

Although the dress might be a touch too long for the actress, she has complimented it perfectly with McQueen accessories, resulting in total elegance.

It's clear she is reading from the Duchess of Cambridge's book of style, what do you think of Anne Hathaway's red carpet look?

Kate Middleton's dress by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen

After months of is it or isn't it, we now know it is Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen that has designed Kate Middleton's wedding dress. The cat was out the bag this morning when we saw Sarah Burton going into the Goring hotel, although she covered her face her silver belt, flat pumps and turn up jeans were the tell-tale signs.

A classic dress with the lace, yet has the distinctive McQueen edge. She looks absolutely radiant!

Happy Royal Wedding Day!

Weekly Wishes

Here is a new feature on the blog, my "Weekly Wishes." Simply because apparently I just cannot get enough of this blogging malarkey and I am meant to be studying for my finals so trawling the internet for things I want and publishing them on my blog seems much more fun than writing about literature in post revolutionary Mexico. 

Every Monday I will pop up a few pictures, maybe even a few links if I am feeling particularly tech savvy that day, to the little bits and bobs that I am lusting after, things that would be able to brighten up my week if I lived in a dream world and they could be mine! It is important to point out that there is no way I can control my desires here so one week it might be a pair of £2,000 Alexander McQueen sandals or a £25 Topshop blouse the next, or I might juts go crazy and do both.

Here it goes...

The Marc Jacobs Henry Icon Watch, I have had my eye on this little number for a wee while, the little colourful  icons in the face make what could be very standard watch a Marc Jacobs master piece! I also LOVE it in gold too, seeing as I am going through a slightly chav-tastic phase at the moment and loving gold jewellery but it seems to be sold out everywhere, so sad. 



Secondly, I am very into peter pan collars at the moment and although I have already invested far too many of my loaned pounds into this little collar based craze, it is not stopping me from wanting this monochrome number from ASOS for £20. Tuck it into a pair of chinos and I'm off! 


I am off to do an ASOS order! 
Turrah,
