Here's looking at you, Zeta!

Well, hey there folks! It's been a long time.... I apologize for being an absentee blogger, if not a bad, bad blogger...

I don't usually watch 'Dancing with the stars', be it the UK (Strickly come Dancing), US or Greek version, but last night was the finale for the Greek 'Dancing with the Stars', after 13 weeks... I had to see who won - kinda important and more importantly, What Zeta wore!
I caught the last hour of what has clearly been an amazing style transformation for the presenter (and actress), Zeta Makripoulia. With every episode, Zeta showed off a multitude of looks, with super styled hair and make up to match. Last year I mentioned Ms. M was one to watch in the styles stakes (in Greece), well she sure hasn't failed to disappoint in 'Dancing with the Stars'.

Check out Zeta's looks!

I heard there was inspiration (mainly hair and make up) taken from various sources, see if you can spot a few here. Helen of Troy, Marlene Dietrich, Barbie, Veronica Lake & Farrah Fawcett... Ok, now i'm making some of this stuff up! Which of these are you loving?


I'm sure some of you are loving this nude coloured ensemble in the middle here, no? I had no idea until I saw another snap, that it was a full on skin-tight jumpsuit number!

I think Giorgos Segredakis (popular stylist to the stars) played stylist here, which meant that there was a wardrobe chock full of lush names, from Raxevksy (whom Ms. M is the face of), D2quared, Louboutin, Casadei shoes, Dolce & Gabbana, YSL, Kessaris (Jewellery) and Azzadine Alaia.
I am loving Zeta's Grecian Goddess look in the centre image below...oh and of course Old Hollywood Glamour above... the hair just rocks.

I am also totally flabbergasted by the awesome talented duo, Giannis Marketakis (Make up maestro) and Vasilis Bouloutasi (Hair stylist extraordinaire) who created these looks on Zeta.

I wonder what's next for Ms. M? That's all folks! I'll be seeing you soon!
Ciao Bellissime

Blushing Brides: Fiction, Celebs & Red Carpet Inspiration

Today is the big day, for the Royal Family that is and oh, the whole of Britain. Apparently 2 billion will be watching the moment when Kate Middleton becomes a princess, yowsers!


Whilst I'm not as fascinated/crazy as others about the Royal Wedding, I am curious as to see what Kate will be wearing on her special day and if she is going to wear her hair down just as the media have been speculating. Hair up or down, I think she'll look amazing.
Plus, was that Sarah Burton (aka designer extraordinaire who has taken over Alexander McQueens label) sneaking into the The Goring Hotel yesterday afternoon? Who's making the dress? Well, we'll soon find out.

Anyhoos, I thought I'd share some snaps of stylish brides (some rather unconventional) from the past, with a little red carpet inspiration and movie wedding frocks thrown into the mix.

Wishing you all a Fabulous weekend! May the fashion force be with you!

Now, this is one wedding that will be in abundance of fashion bunnies! What will Kate wear now that she has ditched John Galliano? OR has she? Led Zeppelin and Rolling Stones to play at the wedding? Rock on girl!
