GWEN STEFANI COVERS US VOGUE

I'm not sure if I can explain in words how much I love Gwen Stefani's cover of US Vogue. I just adore it; it's so fun, interesting and very surprising and I just want to run out and buy it right now - sadly this can't happen yet. The January cover was shot by Annie Leibovitz and features pieces from the YSL Spring 2013 collection, including a statement hat which works perfectly with this shot. 

You can see the accompanying editorial and read the interview here. Are you as much of a fan of Gwen's January cover as I am?

BEST DRESSED | AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS

Sunday saw the stars out once again for this years American Music Awards. There were some really amazing looks to hit the red carpet, but I've just picked out a few of my favourites.

Carrie Underwood

It seems Carrie Underwood is cropping up a lot on my blog recently; she just has some of the most amazing red carpet looks so expect to continue seeing her here! Anyway, for the American Music Awards Carrie wore a pinkish purple, sequinned Abed Mahfouz gown with a gold clutch and gold shoes. The dress was heavily embellished and featured details of lace cut out which was a lovely touch.

Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift wore a Zuhair Murad dress in gold paired with gold strapped heels. Her dress, as with Carrie's, was heavily embellished but she opted for a shorter length with long sleeve to balance the look. I love that she wore her hair up with just her bangs framing her face, it really makes the dress the sole focus, she should style her hair this way more often! this dress was the perfect cut for Taylor and the floral detailing is just beautiful. 

Gwen Stefani

Gwen Stefani moved away from dresses and opted for a pair of wet-look trousers, black pumps and a statement Balmain jacket which is such an extravagant creation. I love that she kept everything simple apart from the jacket and then paired it all with a bold red lip which compliments her hair perfectly and just adds a little bit of colour to the look. I like that Gwen didn't follow the 'norm'.

So that is my best dressed from the American Music Awards. Do you agree with my choices or did someone else stand out more for you?

GWEN STEFANI COVERS ELLE UK

This is shaping out to be a good few months for singer Gwen Stafani, what with the upcoming release of her new album No Doubt, her amazing cover of Harper's Bazaar US last month and now her October cover of Elle UK! 

This cover, although in my opinion not as great as her Harper's Bazaar cover, is still really great, I'm so excited to see her editorial, I'm now just intrigued as to what the subscribers cover will look like.

Gwen was photographed by Matt Irwin and as soon as I saw this cover I immediately thought; McQ! She wears a piece from the Autumn/Winter 2012 McQ collection and a piece from Peter Pilotto and I have to say, I love this whole look, these pieces are just beautiful. 

You can get a sneak peek at her interview here, otherwise, you'll just have to wait for the release! 

Are you a fan of Gwen Stefani's October cover of Elle UK? Will you be buying this issue?

GWEN STEFANI COVERS HARPER'S BAZAAR US

Gwen Stefani covers the September issue of Harper's Bazaar US and surprise surprise, it is a beautifully shot image by photographer Terry Richardson. Wearing a pink Jill Sander dress and an Alexis Mabille couture hat, the cover and editorial both reference the iconic 'Think Pink' musical number in Audrey Hepburn's Funny Face. I think this is a perfect concept and Gwen really does a fantastic job at thinking pink! 

You can see Gwen's editorial and a snippet of her interview here. I know I'll definitely be buying this issue when it hits newsstands, it's an absolutely brilliant cover, one of my favourites in a while and certainly my favourite of the September covers. 

Gwen Stefani's September issue of Harper's Bazaar will be on newsstands on August 21st, will you be buying it?
