When it comes to makeup, I love gold, much like Austin Powers's nemesis, Goldmember.

The collection contains eleven items, with the star being the Glow To Wear Satiny Body Enhancer (£21.13), which basically is a liquid gel bronzer with a copper tinge that creates a shimmery tanned glow. It's scented with the new Givenchy fragrance too (Radiant Blossom) which contains notes of orange, bergamot, peony, iris, jasmine, rose, vanilla and musk.

Whether you loved it or hated it, you've got to hand it to Debra Messing for going a bit bolder with her color scheme last night, particularly when it came to those heavily lined peepers.
The founder of Lorac Cosmetics, Carol Shaw, was the makeup artist behind Messing's look. She applied sultry green and black accents, which complemented Messing's midnight blue Zac Posen gown, keeping the cheeks and lips soft and neutral.

I can't say that I've been to a real, official afternoon tea in the garden.

Regardless, a garden-side afternoon tea sounds quite nice, don't you think?
