I just love pin-up witches!

Omg. I need these.

I just went totally babanas when i saw these....THE Coolest wellies ever! I need these. Shame that these are LV, 'cause i usually don't pay extra for any name or label (=i can't afford these!).

I'm in love with these shoes!

British Academy Film Awards in 2011, red carpet (Oh, and the Grammys too)

This year's celebration of the very best in film took place on Sunday 13 February at the Royal Opera House in London's Covent Garden. It was raining (what a surprise..) and the red carpet was full of umbrellas.

The dresses at the baftas are a bit less flamboyant compared to the Oscars, but nevertheless there were few pretty stunning outfits.

Here's few of my favourite dresses of the evening.

Julianne Moore and Tom Ford. This dress may not be the most flattering for her figure, but still the fabric is amazing and the bow in the back is lovely.

There's just something about Tilda Swinton.. She is amazing!

Trouser suit by Haider Ackerman.

Eva Green wearing Tom Ford.

Colin and Livia Firth. Livias Fashion ComPassion dress is divine.

Jennifer Lawrence wearing Stella Mccartney. I like the corset like top. But is it just a little bit too revealing..?

Helena Bonham Carter in black Vivenne Westwood. Some might say boring, but i love her individual goth style. And wearing mismatched shoes at Golden Globes was a fun idea!

Emilia Fox wearing a stunning Kate Halfpenny dress. Wow!

Felicity Jones in vintage Chanel and Jimmy Choo shoes.
