Rihanna attended the Time 100 Gala earlier last month. For the occasion Rihanna wore a pink prom-style dress by Marchesa. It is refreshing to see Rihanna in such a ladylike dress when she usually chooses something much funkier.

This is a more serious, sexier look for Taylor that is a vast improvement on her usually more girlier ensembles.

Twilight star Ashley Greene appeared at a DKNY promotional event in Macy’s New York this weekend. The actress who plays Alice Cullen in the franchise is the new face of DKNY. She appeared dressed head-to-toe in a rather odd ensemble from the pre-fall collection; faux leopard jacket, camel leather skirt and red blouse. Whilst Ashley is the face of DKNY she is obliged to wear the label at promotional events however DKNY surely have a thing or two better than this look…

Kristen Stewart at the Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Awards, Los Angeles

The stars turned out for the Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Awards which took place last night in LA. The ceremony hosted by Will Smith celebrates the best in music and tv as voted for by Nickelodeon viewers. The red carpet usually provides a forum for more playful outfits than we’d normally see at awards ceremonies.

Kristen Stewart made an appearance at the ceremony where she looked chic in a cerulean blue lace belted dress by Stella McCartney. She teamed the dress with matching blue Barbara Bui suede pumps. Whilst this isn’t a hugely different look for Kristen, the colour is not one she is often seen wearing and is a nice look on her.

Selena Gomez at the Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Awards, Los Angeles

Selena Gomez went for a daring look in a white silk crop-top and embellished skirt look from the spring collection by Dolce and Gabbana. Whilst it is a little risque it is good choice for Selena keeping a young, fun vibe about it.

Katy Perry at the Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Awards, Los Angeles

Katy Perry also chose an on-trend crop-top look, for Katy a lime green matching skirt and top by Gerlan jeans.

Emma Stone at the Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Awards, Los Angeles

Emma Stone looked chic in a white draped bottom dress from next season’s fall collection by Antonio Berardi. She teamed the dress with Alejandro Inglemo wedges.

Victoria Justice at the Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Awards, Los Angeles

Victorious star Victoria Justice showed off a stylish look in a shorts and blazer look by the Olsen’s label Elizabeth and James. The coral colour is a nice spring palette however her choice of grey Valentino shoe-boots don’t really work with this look.
