Jessica Alba explores NY with daughter Haven before glamming up for Charlotte Ronson's Fashion Week show

If there's proof that you can have it all, then surely Jessica Alba is it.
The movie star turned entrepreneur showed just how she makes her busy life work on Saturday as she combined family with fame at New York Fashion Week.
Having spent the day exploring the city with her two-year-old daughter Haven, Jessica glammed up for a front row seat at the Charlotte Ronson show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.

The 32-year-old spent her evening watching models walk the runway in Charlotte Ronson's Spring 2014 collection.

Jess wore a leather-like pleated mini skirt and a black and white striped top to the Lincoln Center event.

She complemented her ensemble with black knee-high stockings, black shoes and a leather-like black jacket.

The mother-of-two smiled for the cameras while clutching her phone and a small cross-body purse.

The Sin City star got to mingle with the designer herself, posing for a photo with Charlotte.

Earlier in the day, Jessica swapped her skirt and heels for black flats, black trousers, a flower print top and a leopard patterned tote. Her best daytime accessory by far, though, was her two-year-old daughter Haven.

Jessica smooched her adorable daughter before heading into the Trump Soho Hotel.

Solo Angelina Jolie Missing Brad as she takes her excited brood fish-spotting at Sydney Aquarium

No-one could accuse Angelina Jolie of lacking ambition.
With her fiance away promoting his new movie 12 Years A Slave in Toronto, the mother-of-six decided it was the perfect moment for a field trip.
And the actress certainly had her hands full as she policed her excited brood as they explored Sydney Aquarium ion Australia.
A Jolie day out! Angelina takes Vivienne, Zahara, Knox, Shiloh and Pax to the Sydney Aquarium on Saturday

Angelina did make things slightly easier on herself by leaving one of her six at home.
But as it was the oldest, 12-year-old Maddox, she still found herself in charge of five energetic young children.
Luckily for her Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivian all appeared a credit to their parents.
Their good behaviour was on show as they left the gift shop under their famous mother's calm command.

With Angelina smiling serenely in a black dress, as she clutched the hands of her five-year-old twins, sisters Shiloh, seven and eight-year-old Zahara led the way.
With his big brother not on the trip Pax hung back to talk to his mother, as he held a green trinket from the store.
He wasn't the only one to leave with a present - his sisters Vivienne and Zahara each clutched a cuddly orange Nemo toy from the Disney movie.

And it seems the others also went home with some goodies, as an assistant was later seen leaving with six filled bags.
Angelina is currently in Australia to film her new movie.
While it was originally reported that she would film Unbroken in Hawaii, it seems her plans changed following a whirlwind 24-hour visit with son Pax back in July.

It is the second feature film Jolie will direct, following 2011's In The Land Of Blood And Honey, which was nominated for a Golden Globe. 
Unbroken tells the inspirational true story of Louis Zamperini, an Olympic runner and air force second lieutenant who survived for 47 days adrift in the Pacific Ocean without food or water when his plane crashed during World War II in 1943. 
After enduring endless shark attacks and aerial strikes, he was eventually captured by the Japanese and tortured in a prisoner-of-war camp until the end of the war in 1945.

Effortless: Angelina looked naturally chic in her simple black dress and pumps

Meanwhile, Angelina has another reason to be smiling, as she is set to be honoured with her second Oscar - this time for her humanitarian work. 
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will present the star with the honorary Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award at the 5th Annual Governors Awards on November 16.

'The Governors Awards pay tribute to individuals who've made indelible contributions in their respective fields. We couldn't be more excited for this year's honorees,' reads a statement by Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs, which was released on Thursday. 
It will be the second Oscar for Jolie - she received a gong for Girl, Interrupted in 1999 - who the Academy praised for being an 'impassioned advocate for humanitarian causes, traveling widely to promote organisations and social justice efforts such as the Prevent Sexual Violence Initiative.'

'Pregnant' Gwen Stefani hides her waist in loose jumpsuit at Nicole Richie's son Sparrow's birthday party

She has been the subject of ever increasing rumours that she is pregnant with her third child.
However Gwen Stefani has yet to officially confirm or deny the speculation.
And on Saturday in Los Angeles the No Doubt star kept fans guessing as she was spotted making a solo arrival at Nicole Richie and Joel Madden's son Sparrow's birthday party.

The 43-year-old looked as chic as ever in a black and white houndstooth print jumpsuit.
The singer who is known for her eclectic style looked stunning in the monochrome ensemble which she teamed with a pair of black slip on heels with an interesting buckle detail. 
Whilst the outfit showed off her slim and toned arms its loose design around the waist disguised any potential baby bump.
The beauty wore her white blond hair tied up in a bun in a side parting with a section of hair hanging down one side of her face.

As always Gwen was immaculately made-up and matched her lipstick with her hot pink cat eye sunglasses. 
Showing her attention to detail the star also sported a flawless manicure and pedicure in a bright cherry red. 
She also clutched a large white leather handbag that looked almost like a briefcase and perhaps contained a gift for the birthday boy Sparrow.
Gwen and British rock star husband Gavin Rossdale are already parents to Kingston, seven and Zuma, five, but the two boys were nowhere to be seen, perhaps spending some quality time with their father.

Rumours of Gwen's reported pregnancy are swirling across the media with sources having told E! News that the pregnancy was overheard being discussed by the couple's camp whilst they were holidaying in the South of France last month.
The singer has previously spoken of her desire to have a third child in an interview with Marie Claire in October 2012 saying, 'I really, really, really wanted one about two years ago. And it didn't really work out. So....I feel good with what we've got. Everything works out as it should. You can't plan anything right? You can try.'
Whilst Gwen didn't divulge further details about previous attempts to add to her family it is understandable that if she is indeed expecting she may not want to confirm it until later stages of the pregnancy.
