The Top 10 Alexander McQueen Dresses

10. Kate Bosworth wore this metallic Alexander McQueen dress perfectly, the length and cut are flattering and it suits her curves. She tops it off with gold heels and the updo makes it look more 'grown up'.














9. The black Alexander McQueen dress looks great on her, the different textures of the bodice and the sticky-out skirt both make it unique. Her hair is up so no attention is taken away from the dress and she finishes it off with simple black platforms and a clutch.







8. This dress worn by Sarah Jessica Parker is very different from her normally quite girly and elegant style.This dress is very unique and eye catching. The huge skirt has a dip hem and the massive heels set it off really well. I do think though, that the dress has a bit too much going on with it which makes it a little bit fussy.






7. This yellow butterfly dress is amazing. This structured hips build interest and the butterflies around the neck have a 3D effect.








6. Lady Gaga wore this dress with her own unique twist, the headdress and hair make it look more personal while the dress is a crazy but gorgeous assortment of black net, burnt orange, olive green and gold fabric.













5. This black dress looks stunning on Anne Hathaway, the gold detail at the top of the tight bodice builds curves while below the bodice gives her a tiny waist. The clutch and heels make her look more elegant in this dress.













4. Taylor Swift wears this dress effortlessly, the mix of black detail fabric and the creamy colour of the dress give in a vintage vibe. She looks stunning.




3. Emma Watson pulls of this tartan dress, the underskirt makes it more girly while the leather jacket gives it a rock-edge. Accessories are kept to the minimum so that there is more emphasis on the dress. I love this outfit.












2. This dress looks really pretty, it's very simple and classy and it makes Catherine look really elegant. The black velvet is beautiful and the shape and cut flatters her shape and height.










1. Kate looked amazing on her wedding day, she had pretty strict guidelines on how her dress had to be but Alexander McQueen's designers took them and made an incredible dress. The lace long sleeves make the otherwise traditional dress quite modern but there is also vintage inspired aspects to the dress.

Spring/Summer Perfumes

It might sound a bit strange but I have different perfumes that I like to wear in the Spring/Summer season to the perfumes I like in Autumn/Winter. In Spring/Summer I like to wear lighter and more fresh perfumes, here are a few:
 HARAJUKU LOVERS FRAGRANCE, SUNSHINE CUTIES-

Price- £10

What they say- Summery, creamy musk.

What I say- Nice, but a bit sickly. It's quite cheap, but there is only a little bit in the bottle as the rest is the figure.

Rating- 6/10



HOLLISTER MALAIA FRAGRANCE-

Price- £26 (1 Fl Oz) / £38 (2 Fl Oz)

What they say- The essence of crisp water, sheer florals, and woody tones. The allure of the ocean and Californian sun.

What I say- This perfume is so nice! The tones are all really summery and it is light and fresh.

Rating- 8/10

MARC JACOBS DAISY-

Price- £56

What they say- Daisy is the essence of a youthful spirit: sunny, happy, free.

What I say- Daisy is everything that is said above, it's so fresh,  it's summery and I love it. It is really expensive though.

                                                      Rating- 9/10 (It would be 10 if it wasn't for the price).
