It's that time of year again, Award Season. My favourite season of them all. I am so excited to be posting my favourite looks all throughout awards season, each star always comes out in an incredible piece of clothing. 
Each year the gowns never fail to amaze me, and this year, the designers have really raised the bar. This year was the year of a  more classic and elegant range of dresses, from Versace to Armani Prive, the looks were timeless.
Here are the looks I consider to be, the best of The Golden Globes 2015. 
Enjoy! 

Girls star Allison Williams turned up the heat in this gorgeous red Armani Prive gown. The subtle ruffles and layers added a unique flare to the gown, and the strapless element was a perfect choice. 

2 time Golden Globe winner Amy Adams looked chic in this elegant pale blue Versace piece. The sleek design is flattering and classic, and the colour compliments her skin tone completely. 

 

Diane Kruger oozed Hollywood glamour in Emilia Wickstead. The combination of simplicity and glitz is utterly flawless. 

Here is Emma Stone making a bold statement in this sexy Lanvin jumpsuit. The intricacy of the top half is amazing, I love the sequin work that contrasts with the bold black trouser. 

This is one of my favourite dresses from the evening. Kate Beckinsale looks stunning in this Elie Saab gown. It looks like the stars are loving sequins and glitz this year, and Kate's jewellery and makeup compliments the gowns feminine colours so well. 

Lupita Nyongo goes for a daring but amazing outfit this year. Her choice to wear Italian designer Giambattista Valli was excellent, the variation of intricacy in this gown is absolutely incredible. I adore the flower design combined with the fading purple to cream element aswell. 

Downton dazzler Joanne Froggat looked effortless in Marchesa. The floral embroidery is something that I don't usually like, but Marchesa have done this so well, Joanne looks gorgeous. 

Rosamund Pike was the talk of the tabloids because of this jaw dropping Vera Wang gown. The top half is sexy and glamorous, and the the bottom half oozes elegance. She works this dress! 

Ahh, Sienna Miller looked absolutely stunning in this plunging Miu Miu dress. I absolutely adore the detailed embroidery on the gown, an option that many Golden Globe designers have opted to take this year. The intricacy in the material makes Sienna stand out in this gorgeous gown. 

Throwback -1960's

This is my first of a throwback series I'm doing. As you may know from some of my recent posts, I absolutely love the fashion from the sixties. Here are some of my favourite pictures that completely depict the sophisticated and classic styles. 

On Trend - Florals

Florals have appeared on the runway in London, New York and Milan Fashion Week and they look amazing. Different designers have interpreted this trend in their own ways, whether it be florals multiplied and dotted around a piece of clothing, or simply one floral simple to make a bold statement.
I am a real fan of this trend and I really enjoy how high end designers create their own floral peices in order to follow the trends and keep their audience in the spring/summer mood!
So here are how designers have produced floral pieces for the runway!

Grab this sophisticated skater dress for only £15. The gorgeous simplistic style is perfect for any night out, or even for smart work wear.  

These edgy tartan print short are only £15. I really love the contrast between the deep grey and the navy, these dark colours are ideal for the winter, but because they are shorts, you can wear these in the summer aswell.




Topshop have a stunning sparkler here, pricing at £18. This sexy top is brilliant for nights out, team this up with skinny black jeans and ankle Chelsea boots, or even with a skater skirt.

The Return of Swinging Sixties Fashion

Swinging Sixties Fashion was a burst of colour and energy, with lively prints and clear cut designs. It was a fashion revolution, no one had ever seen fashion like this before, and I admire the clothing from back then. 

The style has now returned, with most high end designers and high street brands incorporating 60's fashion into their pieces. This is amazing for me to watch as I have always loved the fashion from that era and am so glad that fashion history has repeated itself. These trends are sophisticated, classy and fun, and I can't wait to see how the style evolves during 2014. 

So let's go back to the 60's and see where it all started... 

Now let's see how the current fashion industry have been inspired by 1960's fashion :
