Alice be Curious

Nothing beats a hard days work then coming home relaxing and watching shows like E!, How Do I look? etc. Tonight I indulged in “fashion Police” with Kelly Osborne.  

It's nice to look at those who judge other celebrity's fashion once in a while, and you know what Kelly Osborne surprises me. I’ve got to say looked amazing at the 2012 Sag awards. She wore a stunning white Bagley Mischka gown. I would kill to get that dress. Although I’m not sure what the deal is with her dyed grey hair. ???  Most women would cringe to see one white hair when they wake up in the morning. Kelly you have years ahead of you that will be filled with grey why bring them on early? 

Another favourite from the SAG 2012 awards was E! presenter Guiliana Rancic. I love red and she wears it well. She’s also such a resilient woman considering she has gotten back to work so soon after her double mastectomy. 

All thought not everyone ticked the right boxes. Not sure if you guys have even gone op shopping or to garage sales and seen those old school toilet roll dolls. I swear one of my cousins mum had one.. the horror. 

Now it seems one got mis-placed and ended up at the the SAG awards. Not a fan. Sorry Kaley Cuoco.  

We are lucky at Alice Be Curious, we ge t the opportunity y to play dress ups with local models, photographers, makeup artists and hair dressers.

In December 2011 we did a shoot with Jack Grayson (photographer), Jolina O’Hair (make up artist), Sheryn O’Connor (hairdresser) and model Julia Price.

We filmed a behind the scenes clip on set. Check it out on our you tube channel.The clip features a track by Lana Del Rey our latest music muse.

Here is a sneak peak of one of the images

If you want to see all the others, which we think are stunning, they are available on our facebook page.

In the next month we should be doing another fashion shoot with some local talent. Stay tuned!

The stars surely impressed at the 69^th Annual Golden Globes. We love watching this every year.... wIshing we had a. the budget to buy couture and b. have some where to wear it. Blush tones and fish tails were definitely the style trend.

Our style queen, crown winner would have to be Charlize-Theron. This blush tone gown has a modern plunging neckline but takes notes from old school Hollywood glamour. Loved the detail of the brooch on her hip and elegant yet simplistic hair. 

Love her or hate her Angelina Jolie didn’t fail to impress at the Golden Globes. True to her understated sultury style she used accents of red to turn up the lust factor. The gown was high necked with a thigh high split The detail on her waist reminded us of the 1940's. True elegance never goes out of fashion. Mental note * great posture makes for great photos... 

Mara Rooney Star of Girl with the Dragon Tattoo opted for a dress like her character, dark. This gown looked fantastic and we think she managed to avoid looking like Morticia from the Adam's family. The short hair works for her. This black gown had a classic skirt cut with what appears to be a bubble hem. Love the a modern cut outs on the bust and side seam.

Another star worth mentioning was Sofia Vergara. She wore a gorgeous figure hugging teal gown. She apparently went to the gym twice a day to prepare for this night, and we think it paid off. If we look as half as good as she does at her age we’d be cheering.

Although not an actress Elle Macpherson should get a mention. This woman just gets better with age. This would be awesome as a wedding dress. Dum dum da dum da dum da dum.

One final dress that caught our eye, (well there was many but we can’t list them all) was Nicole Kidman’s. We love beading! Who ever fit Nicole in this dress did a fantastic job. It fits like a glove. Wonder if she can sit in it?

We can't wait for the 69th Golden Globes! 

In the mean time, The Palm Springs international film festival presented CharlizeTheron with the indie Impact Award. 

We want to give her an award for the best LDB on the night. She looked elegantly polished and a siren all at once. Other stars also proved a simple black dress never goes out of style! 

Lucky ABC has LBD’s so you to can be in style.  

Not all women enjoy shopping (my mother is one of them). But for me, I love it!  If it was a sport I know I would be ranked world champion or something to that effect.  And...you know you have a problem when your shopping with your best friend and you squeeze each others hand cause you have just both seen the most amazing dress and don't even need to utter a word to know are thinking the same thing. 

Ok so maybe I am a bit obsessed. But what is life without some sort of an addiction and well mine is clothing, shoes and accessories.This addiction of mine is good news for you why? Well it made me open a store in Canberra. After a year and a half I realised this wasn't enough. I needed to expand online…. And so here is Alice Be Curious. 

I wanted to bring my love of fashion to a wider audience so you too can expand your wardrobe and take over your partners side so he only has one shelf and maybe a little bit of hanging space for a shirt or two. 

Being only a few days old we are still in the process of listing new stock so hang in there this site will soon become your new bff for shopping online.

If you see something on facebook that is not yet listed on the online store please feel free to email us at enquiries@alicebecurious.com and we can arrange to get it to you.

Much love
