Model Obsessions: Montana Cox

With Australia's Next Top Model auditions happening, and Season 8 about to start, I thought we might take a trip down the memory lane with former winner, Montana Cox. This young, fresh-faced Eltham beauty has gone far since winning, walking for designers such as Chanel, Dior and Oscar De La Renta. So sit back, relax, and enjoy looking through this small collection of photos. Oh, and try not to let your self-esteem go down the drain. (I do not own any of these photos)

Who wore it best?

In the world of fashion, there are only so many things people dare to wear. So, it is inevitable that one day, you will be wearing something the same, or similar to, someone else. And, in the lives of celebrities, there is always a case of who wore it best. (I do not own any of these photos)

Blake Lively and Victoria Beckham. Both ladies look stunning here; Blake accessorises the peplum LBD with some simple jeweller and dark pointed heels, while Posh opts for almost no jewellery at all and lighter heels. Blake's red lippy adds a touch of colour and liveliness (see what I did there?) to the look, while Victoria tones it down with nude lips. Blakes curves add more oomph to the dress, making her the winner for this one.

Beth Behrs and Selena Gomez both look amazing in this one shouldered ruffle mini. Beth's gold clutch and shoes match the colour of her hair, while Selena matches her pale pink dress with a simple black clutch and nude heels. I'm not a fan of either of their shoe choices. Beth's hair is a bit too...big for this delicate look, while Selena's flowing waves are perfect for this outfit. Selena wins!

Eva Longoria and Kim Kardashian. Both stepped out on the red carpet in this stunning navy fishtail Emanuel Engaro gown. Eva's sophisticated up-do looks stunning, while Kim's wavy hair adds to the elegance of the dress. I'm not sure what's going on with Eva's white sandals, but her clutch is just perfect. Kim takes the crown on this on though, as the dress definitely fits her better.

Michelle Sratford and Crystal Reed wore this dress almost identically. Both left their wavy tresses down and  accessorised the bright dress with simple accessories. I think Crystal's hair stands out more against the colour of the dress, but Michelle's make her look more like a goddess. I really can't decide on this one. Thoughts, anyone?

Posh strikes again! Olivia Palermo and Posh were seen wearing this tangerine 3/4 sleeve dress, designed by Victoria Beckham herself. Posh's black and white pointy-toed shoes suit the dress well, while her pulled back hair leaves the brightness of the dress with all the attention. I'm loving Olivia's bold accessories, especially the gold bangle. However, there's just something about the pink frilly clutch and the animal print shoes that just doesn't make sense. Victoria's the winner!

Okay, so I know these aren't exactly the same dress, but they are really quite similar, and they were worn at the same time to the same place. The Golden Globes 2013. Recent. And we like recent. Zooey Deschanel and Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence both stepped out in floor length, strapless, full-skirted dresses. Zooey's sweetheart dress was accessorised with a simple necklace and bracelet. Meanwhile, Jen wore a thin black belt with her dress and accessorised with a silver clutch and dangly earrings. I, personally, prefer Jennifer's look, just because her overall appearance is more...neat, I guess. Maybe it's the creases in Zooey's dress, or the loose fringe or something. I don't know, but for this one, I'm declaring Jen the winner.

Trends at the Golden Globes

So, Golden Globes 2013. Awesome stuff. And, with massive award nights like this, trends in fashion are noted by people like... well, me. So my first ever post (can you believe it) is going to be about, yes, I know you've read the title and everything, trends at the Golden Globes 2013. (I do not own any of these photos)

Let's start with the plunging necklines, shall we?

Eva Longoria. Sticking with good old black. And lace. If it wasn't for the peephole and the thigh-high split, the look would've been generic. The beehive hair definitely suits the look, not taking too much attention away from the dress, but at the same time, not being too boring. I, personally think a touch of colour would have made the look even better. Maybe some ruby earrings or something. I don't know. Just something to brighten the look up a little. Even a silver clutch would have been nice. Eva's makeup, however, is absolutely flawless. The smokey eye and nude lips work perfectly with the outfit. Overall, I'm giving her look an 8.5/10.

Moving on. Claire Danes plays the plunging neckline a bit more safely than the others,  but the look is somewhat predictable on her. More often than not, she goes with a solid colour and a full length dress. In saying that, this dress is HOT! The red really looks good in her and the cinched in waist gives her a flattering silhouette. I'm not a fan of the panda eyes though. Toning down the eye makeup and adding a few accessories wouldn't have hurt. A nice bracelet would've been good. Hair: perfect. Overall, I'm giving her a 7/10.

Allison Williams looks sooo perf in this J. Mendel gown! And has anyone seen the back of it? This is  literally like, the most amazing creation. Like, ever. Allison paired the dress with some  dangly peach coloured earrings and matching lippy. Her eyes really pop in a smokey-eye variation (Claire Danes, take note) and her hair is elegantly pulled back so as not to distract from the uh-mazing dress. Completely, 100% a fan. 10/10!

Okay, so just ignore the weird stare on Jon Hamm's face for a minute... (sorry mate)...  Jennifer Westfeldt looks stellar in this plunging dark purple number. The thick-banded waist makes her look thinner and the straight skirt lengthens her legs. I'm not really getting the whole shiny material thing though... looks a bit awkward. Her hair and makeup look flawless, but I would've liked to see maybe a tiny bit more jewellery. Overall, it gets a 6.5/10 from me.

Jessica Chastain. What are you wearing!?!? The pale blue material is loose and daggy, and does nothing for her pale skin. The old-school hair style looks way too styled and hair spray-ed. And what's with that weird parting? The lipstick colour is too dark for her, and makes her looks somewhat like a witch. Some slightly darker eyeshadow wouldn't hurt either. Overall, I'm giving her a 2/10. Sorry Jessica.

Katharine McPhee looks super sexy in this edgy black Theyskens' Theory dress, costing just $795! Although the dress is super revealing and super risky, Katharine totally rocks the look. Her messy bun adds some life to the stiff-looking dress, and her accessories are just perfect. I'm especially loving the bracelet! The only thing that isn't quite right about the outfit is the shoes. They make her feet look big and awkward. I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but her whole outfit quite....black. Well, apart from a few little things like her clutch and stuff, but you know what I mean. I think she could've brightened the lip colour a little and ditched those weird shoes for some cobalt pumps. Thoughts, anyone? Overall, I'm giving her a 9/10.

Sticking with the popular colour of black, Kristen Wiig stepped out in an....interestingly cut dress. The plunging neckline really works for her, but I'm afraid the same can't be said about the diamond shaped cut underneath. This peculiar little hole in the middle of her dress does nothing for her figure, and actually makes her looks somewhat... well, bigger... Her simple gold accessories compliment the look well, but her overall appearance just looks quite boring. I'm giving her a 4.5/10.

Sally Field really knows how to work an off-the shoulder plunging dress. The dress itself, I have to say, is nothing spectacular. It's quite a common type of thing celebs go for, actually. The accessories though, look absolutely stunning. The short silver necklace is eye-catching and the clutch makes the look far from boring. Her pink lippy is something others should really learn from. It looks amazing! Sally's pulled back hair ensures no attention is taken away from her outfit, but I think her fringe could have used a bit of grooming. The messiness of it detracts some of the worth of the whole look. Overall, an 8/10.

Amy Poehler shows us that plunging necklines aren't just for dresses. Her suit, sticking with the black theme, would've been so blah if it weren't for the shorter-than-usual cut offs. However, the pants being cut off short just make her look shorter than she already is. I love the red nails as they add a touch of colour to the look. Her stilettos save the outfit from being too blocky, and her side bun looks effortlessly chic. I'm just not a fan of the necklace. That's all. I'm giving her an 8/10 overall.
