So dance dance, like it's the last last, night of your life life

This isn't my best video but hey I'm just having fun and I'll get better (you'll probably hear some random vocals, it was 12am in the morning). Once again I must thank Charlie for learning this in less than an hour (my homegirl is talented), any suggestions of songs I should sing, please feel free to leave me a comment below, I have in mind my next song. Usher - DJ got us falling in love again is one of my favourite songs of 2011, when I hear it in the club I just want to shake my arse and dance like no one is watching, so right now I'm singing like no one is listening.


I'm wearing a Victoria Secret doodle hoodie and Charlie is wearing a lovely Topshop navy blue silk type shirt.


In no way shape or form am I doing this seriously, I'm simply doing this for fun & to also show people a side that no one has ever seen of me. Hope you enjoy this guys.

Marra Marra

Although my birthday is 4 weeks away I'm more excited (as any girl would be) to go on holiday with the girls to Marrakech in May. Situated in north Africa, Marrakech also known as "Ochre City" is full of culture, sun, Atlas mountain, spa's, hammam (if you don't know what this is, I'll explain in upcoming posts), markets, beautiful belly dancers and so much more. A 4 day getaway can only mean one thing, outfits!!! So excited to do some holiday shopping and be sure to see a post of what I've bought for holiday and of course you guys will get to see not 1, not  2 but 4 girls and our different outfits throughout the trip. Check out our beautiful hotel were staying in found by the one and only Chantelle (aka Kimmy). (All photos in this post are courtesy of tripadvisor.com, I did not take these photos).

May the odds be ever in your favour - Jennifer Lawrence Style

Forget "There's something about Mary" because there is definitely soething about Jennifer Lawrence. After watching "The hunger games" last night with the girls I've been intrigued by this 20 year old oscar nominated chick. On the fashion scene she is one to watch, she isn't afraid of all over detail and very bright bold colours, (which is why I adore her) she always looks comfortable and confident on the red carpet, take a look at a little timeline of my favourite outfits from 2011 - 2012. I remember first seeing Jennifer at the 2011 Screen Actors Guild Awards and was blown away by her choice in colour, detail and showing off a bit of leg. The talented chick has only gotten better and better with her choices on the red carpet, take a look for yourself and see. (All photos are courtesy of google images, I did not take these photos)

When it comes to detail Jennifer will do it from head to toe, looking divine in Marchesa Fall 2012 drop waist red lace dress, 2012 Berlin premiere



If you haven't already go and see this amazing film, I now plan on reading all the books and look forward to the next chapter coming to the big screen.

Bloggers making KONY famous



 5th March saw Youtube bring a video that couldn't possibly ignored. If don't already know who KONY is watch the youtube video below. KONY is a film campaign by the Invisible Children which plans to make Joseph Kony famous, KONY is the leader of the Lords Resistance Army (LRA). Your probably wondering why should we make this war criminal famous, if you watch the video it will explain all. The video is 29 minutes long but it's 29 minutes that you won't forget. Ever since I watched the video I've been inspired, moved and my eyes have now been widely open. Take a look below of the little things I have done that will help the campaign www.kony2012.com

I wanted to do this post because I believe we as bloggers both upcoming and famous can help, by making more and more people aware of the invisible children. We all have a voice, so we need to use it. Every individual can help in a huge way, go online and get the kit, although the kit has been put on hold because of high demand sales you can download the kit.

A promise to myself that everyday I'll post a KONY2012 photo on my Instgram App and attach @makeknoyfamousnow to each photo

Lights, Camera, Fashion: The 84th Academy Awards (2012 Oscurs) No.2 The Best Dressed

3 very beautiful women, 3 very different women, 3 very different gowns, it's a triple threat so let the outfits speak for themselves, (All photos in this post are courtesy of oscurs.go.com, I did not take these photos).




Cameron Diaz
The beautiful blonde is indeed a goddess in this gown by of course Gucci. What I love about the dress is how it starts off so simple at the top and slants down from the hip to create a feathred mermaid effect. The only thing I would of changed is her hair, but other than that I love the dress and I love her in the dress so I place Cameron 3rd.



Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez is wearing a dress by Zuhair Murad. Just take a look at this nude silk gown with it's transparent crystal beading and guess what? The cut out sleeves was custom made for Jennifer herself, (wow talk about a designer having a muse). This isn't the first time Jennifer and Zuhair have worked together, it just goes to show when music meets fashion the sky is the limit. Jennifer I place you 2nd on my best dressed list.


     Milla Jovovich
Two words: Elie Saab, the 2009 fall couture gown looks devine on Mila, she looks sexy and very sophisticated. The white fully embellished one shoulder gown is what red carpets are all about. She finishes the look by adding red lipstick, Jacob & Co jewelry and a Edie Parker clutch. It just goes to show you don't have to be nominated or a previous winner to win best dressed on Lady T list. Well done Mila your my best dressed for the 84th Academy Awards 2012. See you next year.

Lights, Camera, Fashion: The 84th Academy Awards (2012 Oscurs) No.1 The Risk Takers


Here they are the interesting ladies of the evening, the ones that stick in my head for good reasons and sometimes bad. 3 completely different looks on 3 very different women. Take a look at who I've chosen and why. (All photos in this post are courtesy of oscurs.go.com, I did not take these photos).



Judy Greer
I'm sure you've heard of the expression "fits like a glove" well the photo above couldn't be more perfect for that saying. Why it's a risk? No one really mixes a bold silver metalic panel with silk or cotton and here is an example of taking a risk and doing it right. Judy Greer in Monique Lhuillier looks sultry and her body is to die for. This isn't really a dress you'd expect to see on the red carpet and that's why I love it.


Jessica Chastain
I already know not many people would love this dress but I'm a sucker for art on clothes which only means one designer is known for this, Alexander McQueen. I love the detail and it's structure, black on the red carpet can sometimes be boring and very repetative (but it doesn't have to be). The yellow/gold detail stands out on the dress so beautifully and the dress fits amazing on her body.


Gwyneth Paltrow
Gwyneth Paltrow in Tom Ford (need I say more). This may be to fashion foward for some people but this dress has fashion risk written all over it, why you ask? What lady would wear a long shoulder jacket on top of a simple white Tom Ford gown? Gwyneth that's who. It's a very strong dress and it meets masculinity with femmenity.

Lights, Camera, Fashion: The 84th Academy Awards (2012 Oscurs)


The Academy Awards took place last Sunday on Febuary 28th 2012. All the biggest and newest names in showbusiness were at the Kodak theatre and the red carpet was their playground to show off their style and show the entire world what and who they are wearing. This year no men made it on my list for best dressed men (sorry ladies) but enjoy the beautiful gowns that I chose. Here are my ladies in red, a very popular colour on the carpet this year. (All photos in this post are courtesy of oscurs.go.com, I did not take these photos).
