BAFTAs

DAY 2

Unfortunately Day 2 of Bikram Yoga 10 day challenge did not happen and I know excuses are for the weak, but I ran out of time!

Onto more interesting things.............the BAFTAs.
So if you've just crawled out from under a rock, this is the British Academy of Film and Television Arts....ie The Oscars, but in England.
It all happened on Sunday the 13th at a rainy Covent Garden.

The King's Speech raked in an astonishing seven awards with the two most coveted being, Best picture and Best Actor, which was awarded to a rather shy Colin Firth.

The bizarre Helena Bonham Carter won Supporting Actress and gave the strangest acceptance speech, about how she never likes to win and is so used to losing. She is a real character and I was quite surprised to see her dressed in something normal, black Vivenne Westwood.




I was thrilled that Natalie Portman won the much deserved Best Actress, but as she is heavily preganant, she was not there to accept the award. Other winners consisted of Geoffery Rush for Best Supporting Actor and The Social Network for Best Director.

The most exciting part for me is always the fashion, and here are some of the highlights...

                                                          Jessica Alba in Versace


Talulah Riley in Escada


                                                        Claire Danes in Burberry


                                           Thandie Newton in Monique Lhuiller
