Our favorite ‘Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon’ flying warrior Zhang Ziyi attended the Moschino Fashion show held in Shanghai, China. She commanded attention in a trendy matador jacket. Underneath the black, white, and gold cropped jacket, Zhang wore a white blouse, black tapered pants and a cummerbund that cinched her waist. Typically, I’m not a fan of cutesy cutouts or prints but this jacket was so chic that even I could appreciate the heart-shaped gold embellishments on the sleeve. Her look was completed with a peep-toed Louboutin shoe and a Moschino clutch.

From the red carpet in New York to the baby blue carpet in Sweden, everyone dressed to impress at the various events held around the globe. The Royals attended Princess Madeleine of Sweden’s Royal wedding, while some of your favorite celebs were spotted at The Tony Awards, The Critics’ Choice Awards and the ‘World War Z’ premiere in Berlin.

The results are in and it looks like the Smith family’s latest film venture was a bust. Moviecritics and the box office numbers indicate that ‘After Earth’ fell short of its expectations. While moviegoers gave the film a genourous rating of 51% on Rotten Tomatoes, the consensus is that this film is not all that the trailer claimed it would be. Opening on the heels of ‘Fast and Furious 6’ who held onto the top spot probably wasn’t the greatest idea. I like to focus on the positive side of things so what did work for this film was some of the fashion at the film’s premiere. Here are a few of the standout looks of the night.

‘Fast & Furious 6’ opened Memorial weekend with record numbers at the box office. This latest installment of Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and Brian O’ Conner’s (Paul Walker) adventures as expert drivers left audiences yearning for more and proved to be the best movie yet as it landed in the No. 1 spot with id="mce_marker"20 million.This marks the biggest opening weekend for a Universal Pictures release. The film grossed an additional id="mce_marker"58 million internationally. As always, a blockbuster movie means red carpets galore. Check out a few of my favorite looks that the cast sported on the red and blue carpets at the UK and LA premieres.

 

 

SubmissionHave you ever been totally out of control? Or better yet, has your life seemed so full of twists and turns, with people coming and going and events happening so quickly, you don’t know if you’re coming or going? Frightening isn’t it, particularly, if it includes pain and anguish, death and tragedy, a broken heart or perhaps a broken spirit?
