2010 Academy Awards
You know I'm a fan of the charity work that Victoria Beckham does on behalf of all the short-haired ladies worldwide—showing mere mortals how versatile short styles can actually be. And while this look isn't exactly new (in fact it's a dead ringer for her Oscar's hairstyle), it's still worthy of noting for its fabulousness. I do love a bit of a tease when it comes to up 'dos—it saves them looking all dated and harsh; but I'm not a fan of the chav-tastic (Bogan-esque) front strands.
Much has been made of Sam "I'm just a brickie from Perth" Worthington chewing gum while presenting next to Jennifer Lopez but he's got more to worry about than getting slammed by the press. Cosmetic surgeons are now saying that chewing gum is the latest thing to cause wrinkles. US-based cosmetic surgeon Dr. Hema Sundaram believes that “chewing gum promotes muscle over-activity and potentially breaks down support tissue within the skin, contributing to volume loss and perhaps loss of skin elasticity.” Maybe that's Sam's Grand Master Plan, though?
When my birthday swings around next month I shall not be asking for money, jewels or designer fragrance. I'll solely be requesting that I am magically transformed into Diane Kruger. Every friggin' time the girl gets it right.
Kate Winslet's being quite the darling of 2010 Awards season so far, turning up to all four of the major events (L-R: the Globes, the SAGs, the BAFTAs and the Oscars). And while I loved her BAFTAs curls, there is simply no getting away from how awesome she looked at yesterday's Oscars. She could've actually passed for an Old Hollywood screen siren, don't you think?
Three different awards ceremonies (L-R: the Globes, the SAGs, the Oscars), three different looks. While I could take or leave Sandy's SAGs 'do (and dress), I fell head over heels for her Golden Globes curly up-and-to-the-style style and could not get over how shiny her strands were at yesterday's Oscars ceremony. Which is your favourite look?
The first half of 2010 Awards season is over so 'tis the perfect time to take a look back and see which star got it right at which awards ceremony. With me? First in line is Kristen Stewart.
Before she stepped out for the Vanity Fair Oscars Afterparty, Nexxus Creative Director, Kevin Mancuso, gave Nat this pretty up 'do with face-framing curl.
While Natalie's hair was wet, Mancuso worked a volumising spray gel from roots to ends. He then blew her hair dry with a paddle brush, lifting at the roots.
The Vanity Fair afterparty is known for being the hot ticket in town post-ceremony so no wonder many-a-celeb chose to head straight there.
Stars including Natalie Portman, Abbie Cornish and Katy Perry wowed us with their gowns and gorgeous hair and makeup styles.

Celebrity hairstylist Oribe is known for coiffing the tresses of stars like Jennifer Lopez, Cindy Crawford, and Beverly Johnson. At the Oscars, he created a simply chic updo for another A-list star: Penelope Cruz. Of her asymmetric Donna Karan gown, Oribe said, "The dress was a lot of dress, so therefore we just went with not doing too much hair."
Considering her string of style successes, it's no surprise that Diane Kruger was pure elegance on the Oscars red carpet. For her hairstyle, Pantene celebrity stylist Danilo created a contemporary chignon with a twist. The textured updo complemented the actress's Chanel gown, and it's easier to do than you might think.
