Desperate Housewife Eva Longoria Parker covers Glamour UK February 2009 Man Issue to tell the mag about her glamorous life and gush about her husband Tony Parker.

I loved the pictures in the spread. Mrs. Parker looks like a fifties housewife, and she says she’s is such a one, adding she likes to have dinner ready, make sure Tony’s clothes are ironed and he’s packed and ready when he goes on road trips.

The 60th annual Primetime Emmy Awards took over Los Angeles, being held at the Nokia Theatre on Sunday night, September 21.

There were a lot of beautiful celebrities in great dresses.

Jewelled metallic accents, sweeping gowns and soft, feminine waves took the Emmy fashion factor to the limit.

Star Marcia Cross was nothing desperate about Desperate Houswives. She looked like a little girl’s  hope to be a beautiful ballet dancer in her dress by Ellie Saab.

Top of the short hoopskirt dress with off-the-shoulder was made of tulle re-embroidered with lamé guipure. The dress was accessorized with Beige taffeta belt. This outfit is part of the Fall/Winter 08/09 collection shown at Paris Fashion Week.

The dress looks great with Marcia’s hair and skin tone. It makes her look years younger but very urban at the same time!

Marcia Cross’s co-star Nicollette Sheridan chose for a purple strapless floor-length gown. She picks another hot fall 2008 color - purple. This color works it well on 60th annual Emmys red carpet. The long dress, which closed Angel Sanchez fall 2008 catwalk show earlier this year, looks perfect relative to the red carpet and distinctly makes Nicolette to stand out.

Christina Applegate from Samantha Who? (she’s also nominated for lead actress of a comedy series) is lookin’ hot in her icy Reem Acra wrap dress with beautiful golden print.

She is recovering from breast cancer surgery, but she looked like Grace Kelly in that vintage evening gown. Christina couldn’t find a better choice to make her statement. It’s great to see her healthy and smiling, and this gown’s complimenting her personality in such a classy and bold way.

I think Applegate was one of the best dressed of the night,” said stylist Marie Alice Stephenson. “She was glamorous, elegant and she pushed it.”

Christina Hendricks, the Mad Men actress, has her sexy red carpet look down in this flowy green Goddess dress that highlights her sensory curves.

She did her 1960s-era Mad Men character justice in a curve-hugging emerald green gown, which complemented her red hair that she wore in a up-style twist.

The petite vixen Eva Longoria from Desperate Housewives went too short for leisure in a metallic micro gown that felt like a costume piece from Dancing with the Stars. Her fringed ombre Marchesa frock from Spring 2009 collection isn’t a typical red carpet gown. The dress adorned with an oversized bow at the bodice. But guess what - it did stand out and fitted Eva’s compact physique. Eva’s pointy silver pumps, metallic clutch, and teardrop earrings all match and redouble the view.

Supermodel Heidi Klum looks totally fab and so luminous in this great beaded dress.

Heidi had a chance to take the most risks, as she was hoped to adopt many looks throughout the night. She planned no fewer than six as she extended her red carpet walk in a custom Giorgio Armani Prive gunmetal metallic dress with a one-shoulder.

“It was a mature choice for what Heidi normally wears,” said Klum’s stylist Maryam Malakpour, but Armani won her over by sending a personal note to congratulate her on her “Project Runway” nomination.

Congratulations to Heidi Klum for topping my Most Beautiful Dressed list tonight!

It’s amazing how a small part of your garment can radically change the whole appearance. It can add you charm, make you look smarter and generally flatter you, or it can totally ruin the image you’ve been trying to create. Neckline is an important thing to consider when trying to look your best on a date, at the office, or just walking your cute dog in the park.

Fortunately for all of us, there’re some simple rules we can follow when choosing flattering necklines. There’re just three main factors you should keep in mind: face shape, body type, and bust size.

What is important about choosing a flattering neckline is the concept of balance. When looking in the mirror you must see that everything is in proportion. Balance your features, that matters.

Face shape

The shape of your face is the first consideration for determining your ideal neckline.

• If you have an oval and well proportioned face almost any neckline style is flattering to you.

• If you have a long and narrow face try to choose wider and shallower neckline styles. This way you’ll be able to make your face appear wider thanks to drawing a horizontal line by the neckline.

• On the contrary, if your face is wider and rounder pick a neckline with a stronger vertical shape to balance the look.

Body Type:

• Average build women should face no problems while choosing any necklines they find appropriate.

• Large-framed women should look for necklines stressing a more vertical line. Think V-necks, scoop necks, sweetheart necklines (resembling the bottom of the stylized heart graphic), empire necklines (which is square with horizontal coverage of the breasts).

• Small-framed women should look for necklines offering a widening effect. You may consider the following neckline styles:

1. Sabrina, an open neckline that gently curves from shoulder to shoulder, resting on the tops of the shoulder and is perfect for camouflaging too-much or non-existent cleavage.

2. Boat neck that closely follows the collarbone. It helps to balance the upper and lower halves of the body.

3. Crew Neck that fits loosely along the base of the neckline and is collarless.

4. V-Neck.

5. Jewel neckline that is a high, close neckline style that closely encircled the base of the neck and covers the tops of the torso to the shoulders. The look is almost always sleeveless, making you look sleek.

Bust Size:

• Women with moderately-sized breasts and average shoulder width should be comfortable with any neckline style.

Jennifer Lopez moderately sized breasts

• A woman who has a small bust and narrow shoulders should consider styles like the boat neck, Sabrina, sweetheart and Queen Anne, a diamond shape opening neckline that makes the upper torso appear larger and wider.

• Big-busted and broad-shouldered women should choose styles like the empire, Queen Anne, scoop neck, V-neck, and cowl neck, featuring a collar of folded fabric, but it’s wider and looser rather than close-fitted.

Now you know some main tips and there’s only one thing left to decide – it’s up to you whether you want to show it all, or hide you neck, your shoulders, and your cleavage. Just keep two main things in mind – balance and style, and you’ll find yourself making right decisions!

Victoria Beckham, the 34-year-old sexy Spice Girl, will make an appearance in Manchester to launch her latest new perfume “Signature For Her” on 29 August.

It was meant to be in London but I said no,” said Victoria. “I said please can I go to Manchester instead? I love Manchester, it’s got a really good feel to it.So I thought why not - I usually spend a lot of time in London. I’m really excited about coming back because, of course, it’s where I met David. Manchester’s just so fashion conscious. And there’s great shopping”.

It will be the first time anyone will get a chance to inhale scent, because the couple is making their new home in LA, she says it simply wouldn’t do to hold the bash anywhere else.

Posh Spice will be personally greeting fans avid to get a keek at the new perfume. Until now it only her new Hollywood pals - Kate Beckinsale and Eva Longoria - who have had a sneak preview.

Described as a “seductive bouquet” of exotic orchid blended with vanilla, candy apple, patchouli and amber, the new bottle is being plugged in no less than glowing terms.
