Style Focus : Emily Blunt
Critics Choice Awards, January 2013
Emily Blunt was my favourite look at last night's Golden Globes, she is looking fabulous at the moment. Her hair has slowly become lighter, she's super-toned....and she looks radiantly happy.
She would appear to be a girl on top of the world right now and it clearly shows.
Here are my favourite looks from some of the Red Carpet events she has attended in the last few months. Always getting it right, I love all the hair and make-up looks too.
