Leelee Sobieski is Awesome in Jil Sander

Look, there is no doubt that actress Leelee Sobieski is a stragely beautiful woman. With emphasis on the strange. And ever since she wore Mary Katrantzou last month, I have had half an eye on her style. Which turns out to be as strangely beautiful as she is. Just take this Jil Sander outfit. In blue and brown. One of the most peculiarly lovely colour combinations. Which requires confidence in style, big time. I like it.
And do you know why I really love it? Why, thanks for asking. I really love it because Leelee is turning out to be a baby Tilda Swinton, that's why. I mean who invented peculiar beauty in Jil Sander? Boom. Watch this one, I tell ya.

Milla Jovovich in Prada for Campari Calendar

First I fell for the polka dots. And the flippy skirt. And the sheer. And the sling backs. I just loved this press conference outfit that Milla Jovovich wore. It is Prada, as she often wears. But it looks particularly fun on her.
Later she wore another staggering red Prada gown for the gala evening. Gosh, she knows how to Rock a red dress. But do you prefer the day look or the evening look? I'm going with the dots and the flippy skirt.

Dita von Teese Looks Incredible in Her Muse Collection

The magnificent Dita Von Teese launched her first clothing collection down under in Australia last week, wearing one of the dresses from the collection, in that glorious floral print. The collection is called Muse and from all appearances, we need to get our friends in Oz onto the case for us. Stunning.
She also attended Derby Day whilst she was there, also wearing her signature red dress and coat, as well as a magnificent hat as appropriate for the occasion.

Girls in Chanel. Including Kate Bosworth, Cat Deeley and Elle Fanning.

Well I think that both Kate Bosworth and Cat Deeley would be more than happy to be called 'girls' and I really did mean it to be a friendly reference, seeing as Cat is a member of my fashion fantasy book club and all that, so we are quite tight.
But then I realized that there really were girls at the Chanel event in LA at the end of last week. Actual girls, you know, under 16 years old.
I'm not a fan of using very young girls to sell fashion to older ladies who can afford them. It all just smacks a bit of unachievable looks, a bit of child labour and a dollop of Lolita cliche, which is just off putting. But little Elle Fanning looked very cute and age appropriate in her Chanel outfit at the event. It was a school night so I do hope she got an early night...

Maggie Gyllenhaal in Dries van Noten and Rupert Everett. Yum.

I love Maggie Gyllenhaal. She is quirky and cool and married to Peter Sarsgard, who is just the most intensely gorgeous man. And she is an amazing actress of course. Most recently in the new movie Hysteria which is about, um, well, women's orgasms in the Victorian era. Really. And the delectable Rupert Everett is also in it. And so to the Rome Film Festival photocall Maggie wore Dries van Noten, one of her fave designers, and Rupert wore a Moncler reindeer jumper that is properly awesome. Right?
Later Maggie wore a stunning cream gown to the premier. I think she looks splendid. And I think I may be tempted to see this flick? You guys interested in a movie about vibrators? And Maggie and Rupert of course.

Michelle Williams on Ellen DeGeneres Wearing Miu Miu

So I am a bit obsessed with Miu Miu at the moment, having a unrequited love affair with one of their bags, however, even I can see that Michelle Williams looked a hundred kinds of cute in their outfit when she went on Ellen yesterday. I mean, really. I love it.
I can find forgiveness in my heart.

Heidi Klum in Versace. And a Monkey Costume.

Ah, that Heidi Klum is a tinker. She loves a dress up occasion as much as anyone we know and she goes full balls to the wall on every Halloween Which is a bit different to the cute and graphic Verscae dress she wore a few nights ago for an awards shindig. Even though I think she is getting on a bit and should be thinking about dignity (distant sounds of the Sharon Stone Express), but still she looks amazing.
But she also released some cool pics of her TWO outfits she will be wearing for her annual Haloween party. First as a monkey...
Then as a 'Body' (you know like in that exhibition of preserved bodies?) which is not quite completed yet. Fun! Anyone here dressing up for Halloween? As what?
