One of my favourite looks from the 2010 Oscars so far: Nicole Richie always looks effortlessly stylish, and her high-necked gown, up-do and flicked-out eyeliner gave her a bit of a retro look which really suits her. What do you think?
(See her dress here.)

I love to see my fellow redheads on the red carpet, although I must admit, it’s not often I look at ANY celebrity on the red carpet and think how easily I could replicate their hair and makeup! True Blood star Deborah Ann Woll, however, went for a super-simple look at this year’s Oscars, with her hair pulled back into a low pony tail, and her makeup fairly neutral, other than the red lipstick. Simple, but stunning.

I really love this photo of Kelly Brook heading off to the 2010 Oscars: doesn’t she look beautiful? I’ll have lots more celebrity beauty shots from the ceremony for you soon, but in the meantime, head over to The Fashion Police to see what the stars are wearing on one of the biggest nights of the year!

Ahem! Looks like I have some competition in the “Dollface” stakes, in the shape of UK singer Paloma Faith, who seems to have taken the word “dollface” literally for her appearance at the Cervical Cancer Charity in London last night.
Paloma isn’t really one to play it safe, either with what she wears, or with what she chooses to put on her face as this look proves: she’s gone for a “tear” effect on the eyes, and what I think of as “Aunt Sally blusher”, worn with false eyelashes, red lipsticks and heavy brows.
She’s as pretty as always, but what do you think of this look? Delightfully different or just a little bit too much?

The nude lip/smoky eyes combo is always popular for red carpet events, but Drew Barrymore seemed to take things a stage further at this weekend’s SAG Awards, pairing her nude lipstick with more-or-less nude eye-makeup, too.
Drew paired her barefaced look with a tousled up-do, with lots and lots of volume. I love her hair, but I’m not quite sure the makeup works with it. What do you think?

OK, so this lipstick isn’t totally “black”: I’d say it’s black blended with red, for a very gothic look, which Ashley Olsen really played up at the Art of Elysium’s 3rd Annual Black Tie Charity Gala, in a dress which was very “corpse bride”, especially when combined with the dark lips and dishevelled hair do.
Dark lipstick keeps popping up on the red carpet this season: what do you think of it on Ashley Olsen here?

I meant to post these images yesterday, but a quick trip to the outside world ended up taking much longer than anticipated, thanks to the snow, so apologies for the tardiness!
Most people seemed to favour a very natural look for this event, which meant that Nicole Scherzinger (above) was one of the few women who went for a bold makeup look. Anywhere else, this heavy eye-makeup would’ve looked totally overdone, and some of you may feel it STILL looks totally overdone, but she IS on the red carpet, and I think she’s getting away with the look.

 Leighton Meester at the American Eagle store opening Do you subscribe to the old “lips OR eyes” look, readers? Leighton Meester’s makeup artist obviously doesn’t: here’s Leighton looking almost unrecognisable at the opening of American Eagle’s new Times Square store in heavy eye makeup, heavy foundation, and bright red lipstick.
On their own, I think any one of these would’ve worked just fine. All together, though… well, I love Leighton, but I’m not really loving this particular look on her, it has to be said.
What do you think?

Now, I love Drew Barrymore. I may have mentioned this once or twice before.
I really hope her hair’s like this for a role, though, although from what I can gather, it doesn’t seem like it is. Dip-dyed hair just isn’t my favourite look, I must admit, but what do you think? One more photo under the jump, to help you decide…

I did a double take when I saw this photo of Heather Mills at the 2009 Celebrity Catwalk in Hollywood last night: last time I saw a photo of Heather, she was as blonde as ever, but now she seems to have gone grey. I’m not sure whether this is her natural colour and she’s just decided to stop dyeing it, or whether she’s actually dyed it this colour, but … well, there’s no doubt that this colour is pretty ageing on her, no?
Of course, Heather may have just decided she’s had enough of the hair dye and fair enough, if so. Personally, I fully intend to keep my colour for as long as possible without looking ridiculous, but what do you think, readers? Will you be reaching for the hair dye when you start to go grey, or will you just let nature take its course?
