As I said yesterday, statement shadow has been the look of the season at Paris Fashion Week. Miu Miu served up this fun and funky take on the trend earlier this week and I, for one, happen to love it. You'll need a truckload of orange shadow beneath your lower lash line; try MAC Eye Shadow in Orange ($32); and then a violet pencil to line the top of your eye socket. Clarins Waterproof Eye Pencil in Violet ($34) is a good colour match. To keep all the focus on the eyes, hair was slicked back and secured in a high pony. Now I know you might be thinking that the look is more runway than reality, but try breaking it up a bit—do just the orange shadow or the violet liner. Trust me, you'll look hot. Do you love it like me? Or not so much?

We're sad that it's almost over but we thought that we'd go out with a bang: we're giving three lucky readers the chance to win a 100ml bottle of Jean Paul Gaultier MaDame (valued at $139). Every day through Friday, 12 March, we're giving one away.

All you have to do to win this sparky scent that features notes of orange, rose velvet, cedar and musk, is reveal to us in the comments section what influences you to buy a fragrance?

Is it the ad campaign? The model or spokesperson? Because you want a new one? Simply the notes? Or a whole host of things? Having Aggy Deyn feature as the fragrance face for MaDame certainly meant that I had to have this scent. Not that I needed much convincing in the first place!

Models loved the sexy, loose tousled hair they wore for Chloé Spring 2010 so it was a tough act for head stylist Guido Palau to follow this season. But the “gorgeous, bouncy hair” that he sent down the runways certainly left me coveting. It screamed luxurious, almost-unobtainable glamour, ensuring that it'll top the list of lusted-after FW looks. The don't-touch-what-you-can't-afford hair needed two rounds of blow-drying for that movement, according to WWD. The style needed a “very finished” makeup look, according to head artist Charlotte Tilbury, which consisted of slate-grey eyes and an apricot-hued lip. I love the rich-girl look; what do you think?

All you have to do to win this sparky scent that features notes of orange, rose velvet, cedar and musk, is reveal to us in the comments section what your favourite thing about France is. It could be a certain beauty muse like Vanessa Paradis or Charlotte Gainsbourg, or perhaps you think the Eiffel Tower is the most romantic place in the world. Maybe you're a fan of snails, who knows. But tell me all and this fresh and funky scent could be yours for the taking . . .

Hot on the heels of Christian Dior's gorgeous orange and pink eyes, YSL and Givenchy cemented the statement eyeshadow trend that is sweeping Paris Fashion Week. YSL sent models down the runway with pink extended up to the brow bone, while over at Givenchy, makeup extraordinaire Pat McGrath matched the eyes to the red lip. The no-brow brow look was back, leaving all the attention on the coral-red eye. Which means ladies, that it's time to bust out your red, orange and pinks and create a little eye-catching attention of your own, no?

The ebony wigs that graced the A/W '10 Lanvin catwalks reminded me of Selma Blair's hair from back in the day. I guess they're also like Cleopatra-meets-Leigh-Lezark-meets-Mr-Shine. I like them. Which is bad. I'm meant to be embracing my Alexa/Kate Beckinsale hair, not coveting my long-lost fringe. Luckily I don't have nearly as much desire to turn myself into a "mannequin," the term that Pat McGrath used to describe the makeup look. Personally I'd say goth smoky eye summed it up better. Do you like it? How about the wigs? Do tell . . .

Bonjoir! We're back! Well, we never really left. But we did take a quick trip over to Oscarville so your Français side of life is no doubt feeling a tad neglected. Not to worry, we'll get you back up to speed on all things PFW before you can say "un pain au chocolat, s'il vous plait." (That's the only bit of French I can remember. Well the only non-rude bit.) It's one of my favourite looks so far. Orange eyeshadow (and plenty of it) skilfully applied by Pat McGrath and her army of artists, coupled with high-volume curls. It's fun and fresh, what's not to love?
