Red carpet hairstyles: elton john aids foundation party

Following the annual Oscars award ceremony, celebrities have their pick of parties to attend. The Elton John AIDS Foundation Party is always a hot ticket, and money raised goes to charity making it a good cause as well as great knees up. This year stars including Katie Price and Kim Kardashian celebrated with Elton.

Kim Kardashian looked her usual glamorous self with tumbling curls tossed over one shoulder. The star's sultry brunette locks were transformed with lighter shades of brown woven through the lengths, which really enhanced the form of the curls.

Supermodel Heidi Klum also attended, and as well as wowing in her mirrorball gown, the star impressed me with her 1920s-inspired slicked down curls. I imagine this style won't have too many fans, but I love that Heidi plays with her look, and really pushes things with high fashion, editorial looks.

Elton also invited some fellow Brits, with both Katie Price and Kelly Osbourne attending his annual party.

Katy looked relatively demure (well, for her) in a black sequinned number, with her blonde hair coloured a slightly darker shade than her usual platinum blonde.

Meanwhile Kelly, whose hair has not been looking too great lately, was back to her best with a cute retro beehive. Kelly really suits these updos, and is young and pretty enough to carry them off without looking stuffy - she definitely looks the best we've seen her in ages here.

Emma Roberts and Hayden Panetierre attended the party, and while I'm not a huge fan of Emma's loose updo, I think Hayden actually looks great. I'm not always a fan of a slicked back look, and I've not been too keen on Hayden's crop in the past, but this works for me - maybe it's the glowing skin and fantastic red lips.

Two High School Musical stars reunited at the party, with both Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale dolled up to the nines.

Both stars were beautiful beaded gowns, but in the hair stakes Ashley wins for me. The simple ponytail in her gorgeous brunette hue looks red hot, while I think Vanessa's blow-dry just feels a bit bottom-heavy. Had she worn it swept to one side it would have looked much better. Still, it's good to see her without her usual extra-long extensions, and the shorter length does feel much fresher.
