Harry Potter Fashion

I saw this quote on GoodReads and loved it!

I am obviously a Harry Potter fan and have seen the final movie.  I loved it!  As I’ve reminisced about the end, the actors have changed a lot in 10 years.  I consider Emma Watson to be quite the fashionista. This photo was the first time I realized they’re coming into their own.

I prefer seeing “celebrities” more how they are in their every day lives.  I love this picture and how it captures some of the actors personality in it.

Here is Emma with friends.  I love how smart she looks in a navy pea coat and jeans.  Casual yet stylish.  She definitely found her own style at a young age.  Some of us aren’t such early learners!

Here is a shot of Emma during the promotional tour.  I’d love to see the rest of the red dress underneath.  I have no doubt it’s lovely.

I also don’t mind seeing a man in a suit.  They all clean up rather nicely. 

A gray three piece suit – yes please!  I think Daniel Radcliffe looks very sharp.

I’m very interested to see how these young actors grow and mature now that the Harry Potter chapter is over.  Only time will tell!

2011 BAFTA Brits to Watch Red Carpet

Over the weekend there was a BAFTA Gala in Hollywood.  Here are a couple of the style choices that I really like.

Not surprising, Princess Catherine looked gorgeous.

Here is Bonnie Wright.  I love how the color & print compliment her hair.

I don’t usually love gold tones, but Zooey Deschanel’s outfit is feminine and seems to fit her personality so well.  The details and the scalloped hem line are my favorite touches.

The Firth’s are a lovely couple.  Of course Colin looks dashing in his tux, but his wife Livia’s look is my favorite of the night.  I love the color of her dress and the draping detail on the side.  She looks gorgeous.

Princess Catherine

I have always liked Kate Middleton but since the engagement and their wedding, there is SO much more out there to see.  I loved Princess Diana’s style as well.  Princess Catherine is stylish and just seems classy effortlessly.  Here are some of my favorite looks from their trip through Canada & brief stop over in LA. 

This nautical vintage-ish dress is my favorite.

LOVE the maple leaf nod in her fascinator.

I’m a sucker for a navy blazer and a nice blouse.  Skinny jeans – I hate them.  Not the most flattering pants on her. 

Ok, I love navy and white.  This dress is so lovely.  At first I thought they were polka-dots, but I think they’re actually triangles.   She looks comfortable as if it took 15 minutes to get ready.

This gown is so lovely.  She tends to dress modestly which just makes me adore her style even more.  I think this gown is actually from something before their trip.

This yellow dress is so lovely.  Seriously, I think it would take a lot for her to look awful.  She has such classic tastes.

 I love the casual “cowboy” look.  They both look nice.  No matter how I wish it, my thighs will never look that nice in jeans. 

Green is my favorite color and I think her hair color matched with the green makes both pop.  It’s a simple dress and she makes it look so lovely as always.

I love her half-bun and the navy and white outfit here as she’s greeting some children in LA.  It’s an outfit that I think my friend Danika would look just as lovely as Princess Catherine in. 

Princess Kate will be popping up on here regularly.  Please share your feelings good or bad.  I’ve always loved fairy tales and I hope that Prince William and Princess Kate will live happily ever after!

Bonnie Wright

As I’ve already stated, I am not the biggest fan of pink.  However, I am willing to admit when an outfit comes along that I love.  I might be slightly biased because I love Bonnie Wright as Ginny Weasley.  Her red carpet look at the London Premier of “Deathly Hollows Part 2” is fabulous!  Apparently the girly girl in me is gaining ground!

I tend to not dislike pinks that look peachy.  I LOVE this outfit.  Seriously.

Blouses with Bows

Recently I was in a wedding party for a friend and discovered that I really like blouses with bows on them.  Suddenly I am seeing them everywhere.  Katie Holmes has one in her new line Holmes and Yang.  WHY is “fashion” so freaking expensive?!  It’s something that just is beyond my comprehension.  As I was looking around online at photos of the launch party recently, I saw a couple of pictures of Katie and another blouse that I loved.

I love the blouse.  The pink/purple (depending on which monitor I’m on) dress below is part of her own label.  I love it.  PLUS – it’s modest!!  That’s just even better.

I love turquoise and teal.  This blouse below is my favorite – the off center collar just makes me happy 😉

What are your thoughts on this style of blouse?
