GQ Men Of The Year

December 1st, 2011 by Daphne Lopes



 

 

In the 16th edition of GQ Man of the Year the boys stole the spotlight at the red carpet.

It seems like the girls were in the boring zone, anything surprised me at all!

In the men’s team, starting by Justin Timberlake who played with the serious combination “black suit + white shirt” with the burgandy bow-tie.

Chris Pine, 3-piece suit and tie, and Russell Westbrook posed with monochromatic looks in brown. Both broke the ice with a blue shirt. The really tidy hair brought to Chris a vintage look.

Evan McGregor made one of my favorite combinations using the navy+white striped suit on top of a all black look. To break up the seriousness, the scarf and the t-shirt.

Jay-Z, dressed up as a waiter, was definitely not the best dressed, but he was the one to bring the “Men-of-the-Year” trophy back home!

Score one for the boys!

M.C.A Gala Event

December 1st, 2011 by Daphne Lopes



The Vintage Muse, Dita Von Teese, made ​​my heart beating acelerate with the “Asymmetric Velvet” dress. Matching perfectly Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture with the 50′s hair and makeup, Dita has created what may be classified as the perfect “Old-Hollywood” look.

Who also succumbed to the winter’s favorite fabric is Jaime King, wearing an Oscar de la Renta‘s creation.

Dakota Johnson, actress of “The Social Network“, used the androgen trend in a Bohemian way, and gained some points with me.

But the red carpet not only lives from hits … So the Pulp Fiction star, Rosanna Arquette, who threw herself headlong into the polka trend, achieved a result that said by itself: I’m an Avatar extra.

Between velvet dresses with vintage flair and androgyny, my choice is always Dita Von Teese.

EMA’s Pink Carpet

December 1st, 2011 by Daphne Lopes



 

Last night happened the MTV’s EMA and now is the time to do what we do best: Talk about the looks!

The current POP princesses Katy Perry and Jessie J showed up with completely different looks:

“Pink rockabilly” was Katy’s choice. Matching with her hair, all the pieces were made in some shade of pink, but my favorite is definitely the candy-floss leather jacket with diamonds. Speaking of make-up, I could not ignore the look of the mega-eyebrows + Tweegy lashes.

To complete the 50′s look, kate put her pink hair into a quiff, matching, unintentionally, with the designer Jeremy Scott.

 

 

I was surprised to see Jessie J into a vintage-style, wearing a strapless leopard printed Dolce & Gabbana dress, curled bob with no fringe with her usual smokey eyes and red lipstick!

 

 

Lady Gaga, extravagant as always, appears in a metallic dress and hair pulled to the side with three really well defined layers. But the best part of this look to me was the make-up! Following three make-up trends for this season: coloredeyebrows + metallic shades + kitty eyes!

 

Both Models, Bar Rafaeli and Irina Shayk, choose to point even more their curves with tiny dresses.

 

The most famous Disco Pants by American Apparel appeared at Jenniffer Metcalfe post-lipo body.

 

 

It seems like Bruno Mars and his stage-fellows were inspired by EMA’s carpet colour and were all in pink suits and Wayfarer sunglasses.

 

 

To complete the “Male Team”: David Hasselhoff, David Getta, Jason Derulo, LMFAO and 30 Seconds to Mars, also walked by EMA’s Pink Carpet!

 

 

 

 

But of all the famous that passed through EMA last night, who got my eyes was Selena Gomez. The “teen-queen” wore a lace Marchesa dress matching with her nude shoes with crystals. The wavy hair put on the side matched perfectly with the natural look chosen for the make-up.

 

 

It looks like Selena learned the lesson “Less is More”.

Which look is your favorite?

 

Vogue Fashion Night Out SP

December 1st, 2011 by Daphne Lopes



Monday night was FNO in Oscar Freire, the high fashion street of Sao Paulo.

Our most beautiful Top Model Gisele Bündchen was the cover girl for the event.

The stores along the street were open until midnight, but not all of them. They served drinks and food, but honestly, I got a bit disappointed on the event as a whole. The street wasn’t as packed as I expected, and even though the djs were playing, I wished there had been fashion shows. I mean, come on, it’s a must!

Me and Natalia actually had to stop at Rocket’s to eat and wait for the event to start for real.

But some people really worked on their looks, so here they are:

But it was worth it because we bought shoes from My Shoes. And shoes are always worth it! The prices were the same as usual, but Vogue selected a few pairs, and if you bought them they gave you tickets for the movies. It could have been tickets for a fashion show, but I’m done complaining.

And this was my look for the evening:

Yes mom, I did borrow your shirt, sorry! I know you read the blog!

Dublin Fashion Festival and Vogue Night Out

December 1st, 2011 by Daphne Lopes



The Dublin Fashion Festival take place on the 8th to the 11th of September, as the entire first day was very full I had lot of work to do.

 

 

Retailers that have passed through the catwalk: Penneys, Wallis, Dunnes, Miss Selfridge, French Connection, Retro, River Island, Amber M.O.D.A, Ted Baker, American Apparel, The White Door, Bertoni, Hacket, Sisley, Next, Féraud, H&M, Fran and Jane, Pink, Magee, Only, Michael Kors, Marc Jacobs, Warehouse, FAB, Couture Boutique, Beaux Bows, Dorothy Perkins, Ciara Bridal, A/Wear, New Look, Clerys, Design Centre, Debehams, Ruby Ruby, Tk Max, Reiss, Pepe Jeans Smock e Twent1.

 

 

 

LA Makeup Academy was responsible for the make-up at the event, which was a triple flick in the eye and dark wine lips. Besides doing the makeover of the girls who visited the event.

The hair style chosen by The Art Team was very minimalist, party aside, smooth and in a bun.

 

 

 

 

The models were from the First Option agency, which by the way are very beautiful and super high, were the Teodora Sutra (I wore), Jude, Rob Rae, Naoise Tan, Irma, Laura K. and other…

The event took place at the old Watersford Building and beyond the catwalks they did Makeover sessions, a mini charity shop of Barnardos and a photo exhibition.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The last show of the day was at 8pm and after a full day of work I went straight down for the first Vogue Night Out in Dublin, at Brown Thomas that hosted fashion shows, makeovers, live band, DJ and a burlesque show inspired by the film Black Swan.


 

 

 

 

 


 

The impression was great from the entrance, where some circus artists presented themselves.

The participation of “Karl Lagerfield” and “Anna Wintour” was the icing on the cake.

 

 

 

 

But as no place is perfect without perfect people, we recorded the best looks of the party!

(if you are on this pics, please send me your name, i would really love to put the credits!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And this was my look:

 

Sequin skirt: Wild Child

Shirt: Primark

Shoes: Sisley
