Well, the biggest night in the Hollywood calendar has been and gone and the morning-after-bitching has begun.

Here are the best and worst dressed at last night’s Academy Awards.

Jessica Biel, Ok so we know the 90’s are making a comeback and I love love love the colour but an entire floor length gown in fuschia is just too too much even for the red carpet!

Cate Blanchett looked simply stunning in this amazing sequinned gown!

Penelope Cruz looked like she’d shredded her curtains and dragged them around with her all day!

Rachel Weisz, a word of advice….don’t wear colours that wash you out! As for that lipstick it looks ghastly!

Rinko Kukuchi is Hollywood’s new darling when it comes to style and we can certainly see why!

Anne Hathaway, maybe a little too sickly sweet for some but the dress works a treat with the simple hair and make-up.

Cameron Diaz- oh dear, we know you’ve been through a tough break-up with JT but there is just no excuse for this! Just when I was starting to like her! By the way, is it me or does she look drunk as a skunk?

Gwyneth Paltrow, I heard that she had promised to quit Hollywood, why didn’t she stick to it? I’m getting a nervous twitch just looking at this heinous number!

Jennifer Lopez - you’d think she’d have found her style by now but Jenny from the block nearly always messes up! A simple up-do would have saved this look from the monstrosity that it is.

Kate Winslet - I love her consistency……….she never fails to make me yawn

Kirsten Dunst could wear a sack and still make it look fabulous.

Nicole Kidman always so severe, I can’t help but not like her.

I am often asked to comment and write about curly hair. While my Salon is the home to many talented all-round hairstylists, I have been acknowledged as a curly hair specialist. At first I was unaware of any particular special skills with curly hair but of late I have began to understand why this might be the case.

Curly hair is wicked! I love it. I love cutting it and styling it. Once upon a time (before balding kicked in as a teen) I had it, lots of it. My mother has it and my bro and granddad have fro’s. I have an ex who had it. All this curly hair around me and it was not until the last three of my twelve years that I have understood it. Now I enjoy cutting and styling curls but perhaps most of all I enjoy offering advice on it. (more…)

Dr. Howard Murad, dermatologist to Hollywood A-listers and creator of the amazing Murad range of products has been named one of the “world’s top 50 men who understand women” by the Observer newspaper.

“50. Howard Murad,

Who: Dermatologist

Why: In 1989, Murad discovered the anti-ageing properties of Alpha Hydroxy Acids for skin.

He says: ‘I have devoted my life to making beautiful, healthy skin attainable for everyone.’ Kathy Phillips on Murad: ‘He developed his own [Derm] brand long before anyone else - and out of a genuine desire to help his patients and not primarily as a money-making exercise.’ “

Look out for Murad products, coming soon to Unruly Studio.

Love is in the air and I’ve fallen head over heels for Chanel’s Rouge Allure lipstick! I used them on a photo shoot last week, loved the creamy texture and consistent colour that didn’t dry out the lips.

I created a retro sixties look using the sexy pale Chanel Delicate 01 and strong dark blue eyes.

Other colours to try Chanel Passion 14, a fab red for fair skins or Chanel Lover 09 for warm skin tones.

Chanel never disappoint on packaging, these lipsticks have a brilliant ‘easy acess’ pop out funtion.
