Apologies for not posting in a long while, I've been on holiday and as it was a very spontaneous decision to go (our family is very unorganised)I had no posts scheduled for while I was away. But today I am back with a rundown of the best dressed at the Cannes Film Festival which ended a few days ago. With fashion Queens like Lupita Nyong'o and Cate Blanchett on the red carpet, there was some stiff competition, here is my favourites from last week.

Cate Blanchett never fails to amaze and the film festival was no exception where she wore a Giles Deacon gown.

Sienna Miller wore a unusual, but chic gown from Valentino. I think few others could pull of this dress (which I just noticed is diamonds as kites with 'string' coming from them) like Sienna does with so many outfits.

Natalie Portman wore Dior Couture and I thought it suited her so well, the simple dress still gave a statement, and paired with classic pearl earrings looked beautiful.

Lupita Nyong'o lets be honest, there are few best dressed lists anywhere on the internet which Lupita is not featured on somewhere, and with good reason, she never fails to steal the rep carpet. To the film festival she wore this mint green Gucci gown.

Barbara Palvin wore her black gown with Chopard jewel accessories, she is breathtaking, in all he poses you can tell shes a model there is not one bad shot.

Los Angeles is becoming another fashion capital, and why not? It's beautiful and design labels such as Tom Ford and Saint Laurent have both flocked here for various shows and events, the latest one to do so being Burberry on Friday. The Griffith Observatory at Griffith Park was taken over for the night by Christopher Bailey, Chief Executive Officer,for the first time ever. Burberry may have hosted their show in America but they stayed true to their British roots with a London themed evening for their Autumn/ Winter 2015 Ready to Wear collection attended by celebrities such as Elton John, the Beckham's Cara Delaving,Suki Waterhouse, Rosie Huntingdon-Whitley and Anna Wintor.

As models walked down the runway to the likes of George Ezra, Tom Oddel and Clare Maguire he was the front row who were watching.

I loved the pattern work and romantic colour palette used; teal, magenta, rouge, navy and olive. They were all pieces people could wear easily this autumn/winter; heavily fringed poncho's, vintage pattern dresses, over sized coats, dark tote bags, mosaic crop tops and suede boots. One of my favourite garments were the quilted floral jackets, I think a cheaper copy will find its way into my wardrobe this winter. The whole event was beautifully planned from the plants freshly laid as the audience arrived to the First Battalion Grenadier Guards on the runway and the collection was amazing,defiantly be a talking point in the fashion world.

So today is Elle Fanning's 17th Birthday, Elle is one of my favourite actors, she won me over the first time I saw her infectious smile in 'We Bought a Zoo' a few years ago. The gorgeous actor has also been in films such as Maleficent, Super 8, Somewhere and Low Down, but there are so many more. To celebrate her big day, I have found my favourite of her red carpet looks through the years.

The embroidery on this Marchesa Spring 2011 Cocktail dress, which she wore ELLE's 17th annual Women in Hollywood Tribute in 2010 is so beautiful. This was taken when she was just 12.

She wore a Valentino dress with Charlotte Olympia Sleeping Beauty Heels to the Maleficent Paris Press conference. I think the dress goes so well with her shoes, they compliment her pale complexion as well.

Looking like a Goddess, here the Georges Hobeika Couture gown from the autumn/winter 2013 collection she wore to the Maleficent private reception in London.

Elle Fanning last year, wearing a Ellie Saab gown, not only does she play royalty in Maleficent but looks the part in real life also. 

So here are my favourite of her looks, what are yours? I can defiantly see her being a style icon very soon.
