And I am not sure if it’s a good or a bad one.

Attending the press conference for “G. I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” in South Korea, Sienna Miller opted a tropical print Diane von Furstenberg Resort 2010 tunic dress matched with thick tights and black suede lace-up boots.

After some time of being quite predictable and dowdy, it’s actually refreshing to see the actress in this relatively new look. I actually love the frock’s tropical print that seems to bring a smile in your face; pairing it with those tights and boots was also a wise choice too considering the weather in the country (if this was worn in the US, it would’ve been so out for the summer). What I am not so sure about is the frock’s shoulders that are too bulgy one would think Sienna’s up for a football game.

This got us all waiting for a year, and now it’s finally here!

Lily Allen’s photos for Chanel’s Fall/Winter 2009/2010 handbags collection campaign finally surfaced showcasing the singer in playful images of an Audrey Hepburn-esque – her hair in a bouffant updo with diamond tiara and ruffled collar. I guess the combination of Karl Lagerfeld’s edgy couture and Lily’s girly pop-star style is one fashion dream come true!

The handbag line which is to be launched this October is a collection “of reversible, lightweight nylon and lambskin bags in black, ecru, navy, or beige. Turn them inside out, and you’ve got the same tote, overnight duffel, or hanging garment bag in quilted garnet—the original lining colour of the house’s classic 2.55 bag.”

Well as much as I like these photos of Lily – very fun and very chic – I don’t think if I feel the same for the bags. I don’t know, but there’s a part of me that tells me they’re ugly.

After going bold in colors at the Comic-Con 2009, Ashley Greene goes daring this time showing off some sexy cleavage and hot legs.

Attending the “Julie and Julia” special screening, the Twilight babe donned on a Brian Reyes sleeveless double stitch dress matched with a pair of Jimmy Choo Verity sandals.

I am not really a huge fan of exposed zippers, but this one here featured it in a way that it’s edgy and classy. Besides, when it hugs Ashley’s figure this way – like it spells H-O-T – who are we to argue?

Undoubtedly, this look is much, much better than her Comic Con style. Although the latter took my attention with its color, this one hit it for its presence.

I’ve always seemed to be a sucker over white frocks; their classy, their chic, and just hard to miss. However, I guess there are just some white frocks that are quite hard to pull off.

Take for example this white RM by Roland Mouret Aphrodite dress actress Amy Adams wore at the “Julie & Julia” Los Angles premiere.

Paired with nude suede shoes, the look would’ve been a hit if only the bodice would appear to fit Amy well. Of course this can also be due posture or what, but the point is, it really didn’t seem to look great on her.

And yeah, with this kind of style, white may not be its best shade (especially when it’s hit by light). Something darker may be.

Oh well, bottom line here is that I expected something better than this from Amy.

You ever heard of that saying that there is a thin line between love and hate? I guess I have that same feeling with Rihanna.

You know I always seem to have this tendency to raise my brows seeing the singer’s looks; they’re weird and so totally out of my taste. However, behind that distaste over Rihanna’s fashion I often find myself envying the singer for the kind of guts she has daring to be different and bold.

Take a look at this look she had at the premiere of “Inglorious Basterds” last Thursday.

Other times this Alexander McQueen jumpsuit would look conventional on other stars; stunning still but conventional nonetheless. But adding a touch of the 80’s with those classic pearls, cat-eyed black eye liner, and bright red lipstick, Rihanna sure proved that conventional is so out of her dictionary. And need we talk about those Mohawk? Tell me, who in Hollywood would be brave enough to get this Mohawk, and much more be able to pull it off the way Rihanna did here?

What I so don’t like in this look? – The lace fingerless gloves that seem quite odd here. But then again, if you are Rihanna, odd is a flattery.

Certainly, the singer was more like going to a runway than being a mere movie going.

Seeing Rihanna this fierce, I would not wonder if Chris Brown’s eating his heart out already. His loss can be anybody’s gain now, right? Serves him right though.

Well I guess it’s just true that you tend to dislike somebody that has something you want to have or want to be. My feelings for Rihanna exactly.

Aside from Bella and Edward (which actually is an obvious), Alice Cullen is one of my favorite characters in Twilight saga.

Other than having a cool power to see the future, what makes Alice so interesting for me is her high-edge taste for fashion. Why Alice is one fashion guru in the book! And so it disappointments me a bit to see the star playing Alice’s character looking a bit too off the fashion expert personality of the latter.

Gracing Summit Entertainment at Comic-Con 2009 Ashley Greene went bold and daring with colors wearing a bright fuschia pink Alice + Olivia dress paired with Jimmy Choo Verity sandals. The look was okay, fine, not ugly but the problem is I don’t think it’s flattering enough on Ashley that would make anyone who sees it say “wow!”.

Tsk, tsk, if only Ashley Greene can get some fashion tips from Alice Cullen, huh?

Compared to other Hollywood celebrities of her age, Scarlett Johansson is one of those stars who we so rarely see in the limelight when there’s just no reason to be.

And since Comic-Con 2009 is one good reason to get ScarJo in the eyes of the cameras and public, we sure are not missing this chance to get the sexy actress here in Celebrity Fashion Watch.

Attending the “Iron Man 2” panel discussion during the convention, ScarJo was knock-out beautiful wearing a cream Dolce & Gabbana shift dress accented with a black YSL belt paired with Christian Louboutin peep-toes.

Well okay, the frock was not that super glamorous and all, but hey, clothes don’t make you, they compliment you, right? And so if only for that matter, we can actually forego the fact that this look is a bit too dull and boring for someone as stunning as Scarlett Johansson.

Wednesday

Just a day away for the show’s 100th episode – which will showcase a performance of SYTYCD fan, Katie Holmes – Cat was just breathtaking wearing a gold halter dress by Yigal Azrouel, vintage bracelets and Gucci spikes.

I wasn’t really used to raving over halter frocks as I sometimes think they’re quite hard to pull off but Cat here nailed it effortlessly. Pulling her hair up was also a wise choice to further showcase her beautiful neck and collar bones. And if you think metallics are so out this season, well I guess Cat showed you here that it still rocks on stage.

Thursday

With the much anticipated 100th episode of the show and the much talked about performance of Katie Holmes, Cat went wild on her style clad in a sequined dress emblazoned with an image of a leopard. Completing the look with a pair of gold gladiator heels and sexy big curls for her ‘do, the host sure was a sight!

Sequined frocks have never been my cup of tea yet this one has that wow factor one would love to see again and again. And those gladiators? – They rock!

Wow! Cat sure is one interesting host to see in our televisions.

Oh, those aren’t scales? I’m sorry I know Paris Hilton would not wear something as crazy as scales in a special event like the special screening of her documentary film, Paris, Not France, but seeing her in this photo, I actually was not able to think the event was the launching of her latest perfume, Siren (where she portrays as a mermaid).

Okay, the Roberto Cavalli Resort 2009 dress was not really that bad, but I guess matching it with that Le Silla shoes and those diamond bracelet and diamond earrings made this look uber sparkly it was just so hard to look at Paris without squinting.

Fortunately (like really thankfully!), Paris Hilton managed to leave those sparkling headbands that she currently fancies to wear or she would end up blinding the papz literally.

Vanna Bonta looked like an angel in ethereal silk chiffon at the 40th anniversary Apollo 11 moon mission celebration on July 20. The black tie celebration hosted by NASA and Space Frontier also honored The Universe series with an award, the show where Vanna flew in zero gravity to test her invention, the 2suit. The show’s producers attended to accept the honor, one of them wearing the official 2Suit mission patch on a space age silver trussed tux.

Vanna’s personal stylist traveled there to braid her hair with pearls to match her pearl shoes. What do you think of Vanna’s accessories? the rocket purse, an Apollo 11 charm bracelet and dreamy exclusive moon era dress. It’s a Jean Louis vintage original. The designer dressed Billie Holiday, Marilyn Monroe (the dress she sang “Happy Birthday Mr. President” in), Judy Garland, Doris Day, Irene Dunne, Shirley MacLaine…and the list goes on. It was learned the dress was a special gift from an undisclosed friend…who it was designed for, and worn once before.

Vanna also spoke and read an original poem for the event. Poetry may not be that popular in the US but her childhood poetry books sell for hundreds of dollars (check it out), and signed Bonta novels have gone for triple that and more. If that’s any gauge of what some people consider hot out there…she’s still with us… and an autographed copy of the Inventors Digest that featured Vanna brought in the most bids at a raffle for the cosmic evening.

An insider revealed that Vanna’s team and everyone close to her love working with her so much they’d travel to the moon with her.
