The 44-year-old actress thinks she doesn't suit the bright shade because her blonde hair makes her look "trashy" whenever she dons it.She told PEOPLE: "I won't wear red on the red carpet ... I just never think blondes look good in red.I think it's good for dark haired girls and dark skinned girls. But for some reason, I always feel like I look trashy in it."
However, the mother-of-two wore a red Zac Posen outfit at a recent event but says she chose it because it had lots of different colours. She said: "It had a busy print, it had different colours. It wasn't fire engine red. At the [Golden] Globes I wore burgundy or plum. That wasn't red. If you put blue in it, I can wear it, but orange does not look good with my skin."

Get some colors ideas!




It’s easy to start letting darker winter colors start creeping out of your closet as temperatures slowly start to drop, but fight the urge as long as you can. Use these color options to freshen up your wardrobe and to change up the colors from this summer.





Burberry menswear will show in London this year 
The fashion house is breaking with tradition and swapping Milan for London to showcase their spring/summer 2014 collection, which they will present as part of three-day catwalk event London Collections: Men on June 18.
This marks the first time in 10 years Burberry won't be at Milan Men's Fashion Week, which is held every January and June in the Italian fashion capital.
Christopher Bailey, the brand's chief creative officer, said: "London is the creative heart of Burberry and our global headquarters, so we are incredibly excited to be showing our next men's collection here. It is a wonderful time to be bringing our menswear show home."
Burberry previously traded the Italian fashion capital for London when it presented its women's ready-to-wear Prorsum line in 2009. The company has been an avid supporter of LC: M since its inaugural showcase in June 2012.
The line-up this summer includes fashion heavyweights Tom Ford and Alexander McQueen.

 Gaga’s new accessory

 Yes, when you thought she couldn’t come up with other unusual accessory , she showed up with 24-carat gold plated "chariot" as she recovers from hip surgery.

The 'Judas' singer has been left reliant on a wheelchair after having an operation to repair a labral tear on her right hip last month, and she is recuperating with the help of the extravagant movement aid, which she commissioned from luxury brand Mordekai.

Ken Borochov - who is the creative genius behind Mordekai -designed the chair and although he has worked with Gaga before he was shocked to receive such an unusual request.

The luxurious wheelchair is completely gold plated, including the rims, and also features a black leather seat - which is inspired by vintage motorcycle jackets - and a removable leather canopy.

The chair can also recline should the 26-year-old pop superstar want  to relax. Well done, Gaga!

Sam Mendes won't direct the next Bond filmThe 'Skyfall' director is too busy with his theatre commitments to helm the 24th chapter of the Daniel Craig-fronted spy franchise and has regretfully decided to pass up producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli's "generous" offer.
Blockbuster hit 'Skyfall' has passed the $1.1bn mark to become the highest-grossing film ever , and 47-year-old director Sam was rumoured to be returning for the next instalment after the praise he received for his fresh take on the long-running franchise.

Try Hot pink !

Neon was spotted on the womens wear catwalks every now and again, but took the spotlight on the menswear catwalks – particularly in London. Hot pink was the key shade, showcased through bright jumpers and blazers at Topman, stripe details at Sibling and patterned trouser suits at Meadham Kirchoff. Afraid? Don't be! According to a research, men who wear pink shirts to work earn more and are better qualified than those who favour traditional colours such as white or blue. If this is completely true we don't know, but it doesn't' hurt trying, right? 



Paris Fashion Week starts today 
Concluding four weeks of international shows, the French capital follows in the footsteps of New York, London and Milan by showcasing the autumn/winter 2013 presentations from some of fashion's biggest names.
Alexander Wang will make his debut at Balenciaga on Thursday morning (28.02.13), having Nicolas Ghesquière in November last year, and all eyes will be on him to see what he has to offer.
Raf Simons' will show his second ready-to-wear collection for Dior the following day (01.03.13), while Hedi Slimane's next offering for Saint Laurent is sure to attract a star-studded front row.
However, Alexander McQueen is missing from the show line-up this season as creative director Sarah Burton is on maternity leave so the label will instead host an intimate presentation.
Other labels to show at PFW include Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Lanvin and Isabel Marant. We are looking forward to see what Paris will bring! Yay!

From summer to fall 
While boots have always been a wardrobe staple for fall, the wedge was something that was reserved for summer… until now!
