Cannes Style - Blake Lively

She wowed on the red carpet at the opening ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival and it seems the glamour never stops for Blake Lively as she looked stunning for a luncheon with her Cafe Society co-stars on the French Riviera on Thursday. The actress, who is pregnant with her second child, wore a gold midi dress and strappy Jimmy Choo sandals as she arrived at the Nikki Beach pop-up club. 

The Gossip Girl star is the queen of La Croisette, and this is her fifth Film Festival outfit so far. The opening night was only yesterday! First up there was a Preen dress, then a red hot Juan Carlos Obando jumpsuit, an Atelier Versace gown and then a full look by Ferragamo. But for lunch with her Cafe Society co-stars, she showed her softer side by wearing a velvet dress, which is by Valentino. We love the yellow gold hue and vintage vibes of this little number, plus the midi length, wrap belted waist and frill front make it super flattering. Unfortunately this AW16 piece isn't yet available to buy, but click to shop the current Valentino collection at Net-a-Porter, or recreate the look with our help. We've found something that will fit in with whichever element of this dress you've fallen in love with, whether it's the fabric, fit or colour.

The Gossip girl star once said she doesn't have a stylist because she's friends with lots of designers, but seriously how many friends can a girl have? So far at the Cannes Film Festival she has worn Burberry, Preen by Thornton Bregazzi, Juan Carlos Obando, Atelier Versace, Salvatore Ferragamo, Valentino and Chanel. Today she's modelling yet another dreamy dress, this time by Giambattista Valli, whose famous fans include everyone from Adele to Amal Clooney. We love the floral embellished top half, bow waist and white textured little A-line skirt on this dress, which she teamed with a pair of striped heels by Christian Louboutin. The cape style around the shoulders is super chic, and her swept-up hair makes the most of this statement dress. Sadly Blake's couture creation isn't available to buy, but click (right) to shop the current collection at Net-a-Porter. Or if you're feeling inspired then look no further than our edit below.

She rarely puts a fashion foot wrong and always makes an effort for the red carpet. But Blake Lively surpassed herself when she stepped out at the Cannes Film Festival on Friday evening, where she dazzled at the annual event's latest A-list gathering. The actress - who is expecting her second child with actor husband Ryan Reynolds, 39 - dazzled fans as she attended the Slack Bay premiere in a truly stunning dress. Dressing for the red carpet when pregnant is no mean feat, but Blake Lively has been stealing the show at the Cannes Film Festival. Smashing it in the style stakes, she’s been wowing us with her custom gowns at each premiere, as well as her chic daytime looks for photocalls. So far she’s worn designs by Giambattista Valli, Versace, Chanel and Valentino and we’re only on day three! Today she channelled Cinderella at the Slack Bay premiere, rocking a frothy pastel blue gown by Vivienne Westwood. With its layers of organza flounces made from 30 meters of fabric, sequin floral embellished bodice and signature Westwood Bardot neckline, this gown is most certainly fit for a Princess!
