I think it is safe to say that the hottest trend at the moment is NUDE! Not as in your birthday suit nude, as in the colour you should be wearing!
Nude and blush colours are exploding all over the celeb awards scene at the moment – and they look really, really lovely!
Vanity Fair Cover - Hollywood "IT" Girls
We saw Maggie Gyllehaal, Chloe Sevigney, Drew Barrymore, Katy Perry, Hayden Panettierre, Miquita Oliver and co wear nudes throughout January and we want to wear it too!!

Michelle Monaghan
Kate Bosworth

The great thing about nude is that it is just your base colour and does not have to strictly be the fleshy, beige colour we all think it is. Nude is a neutral colour and every colour has a neutral tone! (Yay!) So if you are into purples or blues and pinks and oranges – just look for something in that colour but in it’s lightest possible tone. Take a look at the Vanity Fair photo shoot below – there is a lovely coral colour and powder blue which looks amazing!

The look is girly and elegant all at the same time and you can wear it day or night! We love nude!!
Also, did anyone see Victoria Beckham’s shoot for US Glamour Magazine?? Wow! Love the retro, 50’s housewife with a twist concept! She makes a great model
Also, a few of her designs have been worn by celebs during the last couple of awards ceremonies… ahem Courney Cox-Arquette, Jennifer Hudson!

This Friday brings the end of Celebrity Big Brother… Sadly, I am sad
I have never been one for CBB, but this years housemates are proper celebs (well, most of them!) and I have been glued to the telly.
Who would have thought that our hero from “Usual Suspects” and loveable stoner in “Bio Dome” would turn out to be a bit of a preacher? Very, very interesting and a complete eye opener! Originally I was backing Vinnie Jones to win… but don’t ask me why, I am really starting to back Dane Bowers… Stephanie would be a great winner too! She is lurvley! Sooo looking forward to watching the final on Friday night… Bye bye to Davina’s witty banter (until June), bye bye to Gorgeous George Lamb (until June) bye bye CBB forever??? Lets hope not!… Oh and the lovely Davina herself has now entered the house – this should be good!
Stephen Baldwin back in the day
Anywho, Goddiva’s trendy little birdie has been whispering sweet and upcoming trends to us and I am pleased to say that big, bold African prints will be making their way from the catwalk to the hightstreets! The bright and bold colour patterns are eye catching and a breath of fresh air!
Marc by Marc Jacobs / Spring 2010
Current trends are very girly indeed with old English Rose prints, lots of frills, ruffles and tutus in lovely, floaty blush and nude colours. Throw in a few denim pieces (bags included) and you are done!
Vintage Rose Print - think, summer playsuit, tea dresses! Yes!!
Ruffles and Frills in nudes and blush! Oh so girly
Nautical stripes and designs are very big at the moment but if you’re not too crazy about anchors and ropes – any striped Tee will do
Remember blues, reds and whites!
Jessica Alba - simple Nautical
Dita Von Teese - Nautical, Nautical, Nautical!
Nautical Catwalk
A very simple, yet great and flexible trend!
Just a quick little Goddiva info… As it has been such a long month, spend £25 or more you will receive a Goddiva Keyring Gift! A little THANK YOU from the Goddiva Team
Thats it from me… until next time!
