Fashion Watch: Met Ball

Check out SJP's amazing mohawk/fascinator; I'd say she nailed the theme of "Punk: Chaos to Couture." Find all the looks from last night's event here.

Fashion Watch: Golden Globes

I was very unimpressed with last night's fashion. As you can see below, I have more misses than hits. Hopefully things will turn around for the rest of the awards season. What did you think?

Hits...



Misses...

Fashion Watch: The Grammys

Here's my wrap up from last night's festivities...

Hits

Rihanna in Giorgio Armani, a piece she helped design!

Taylor Swift looking elegant and Victorian in Zuhair Murad

Kate Beckinsale, also in Zuhair Murad. Love love love!

Paris Hilton in Basil Soda, a designer I recently looked at for bridal gowns

Misses:

Katy Perry in Elie Saab, reminiscent of Kelly Cuoco's disaster at the SAG awards

Fergie in Jean Paul Gaultier. I don't so much hate the concept, as much as her execution of it

...and don't even get me started on Nicki Minaj!

Fashion Watch: SAG Awards

Reminiscent from the Golden Globes, there were plenty of ponytails and nude gowns, but last night was lacking the lavishness of gowns that I am accustomed to. That being said, here are the few looks I enjoyed, and a couple that were not so hot.

Hits

Kyra Sedgwick in Pucci. Love the cutout, and the low cut back. So chic!

 Lea Michele in Versace. I love the structured bodice, although I wouldn't have made the slit quite so high...

Rose Byrne in Elie Saab. She took a risk wearing a jumpsuit on the red carpet, but she rocked it!

Misses

Kelly Cuoco wearing Romona Keveza. Cake topper anyone?

Kristen Wiig in Balenciaga. Hiding a hickey perhaps?

Fashion Watch: Golden Globes

This year I joined some fabulous ladies to chat live about the Golden Globes using Spreecast - have you all ever used this? It was a really fun and Jessica from First Came Fashion was in there on camera discussing the red carpet fashion as well!

I used this event to gain inspiration for my wedding gown, as I want something more red carpet than bridal. With all the nudes and blushes, it did not disappoint!! I die over Charlize's frock and Elle looks stunning in that mermaid silhouette.

Charlize Theron in Dior Couture
Elle MacPherson in Zac Posen
Giuliana Rancic in Basil Soda
An awards show wouldn't be complete without a worst dressed list as well. While Sarah claimed her daughter chose her dress, I think she needs to realize this could be fashion suicide and should simply wear this dress around the house to appease her little one. I adore Frieda's necklace (Chopard), but her gown is not flattering at all for her fabulous figure!

Freida Pinto in Prada

Fashion Watch: Glamour Women of the Year

Celebrating fabulous women, Glamour's Women of the Year event was held this past Monday at Carnegie Hall in NYC. Here are my hits and misses from this year's event.

Hits:

Lea Michele, always a stunner

Lala Anthony - gorgeous color and love the bow detail

Misses:

Tory Burch - for as cute as she is, this design of hers just does not work. With no waistline definition, and the below the knee hemline, she just looks frumpy!

Emma Stone - she is usually spot on with style, but this dress just doesn't work. Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad in a different shade and sans necklace

Fashion Watch: VMA Awards

There was a lot of talk about Selena Gomez's dress choice last night at the VMAs. Many thought her provocative threads were too sexy for the 19 year old, but I completely disagree. I don't think it was over the top at all. I loved her gown - the high and low - so chic! It could have been a little gothy, but she pulled it off flawlessly.


Another standout was Zoe Saldana. I loved the different textures in her dress. It's hard to see in the photo below, but it's made of leather, tweed and sequins. She's also rocking some killer Balenciaga heels. 


PS. How amazing was Britney's tribute? I really hope the rumors of her retirement aren't true...

Fashion Watch: CFDA Awards

On June 6th the 2011 Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) Fashion Awards were held at Lincoln Center in NYC. Expectedly so, there was a much broader range of fashion to be seen (than the MTV Movie Awards). Below are some of my favorites!

Brad Goreski
Chanel Iman


Doutzen Kroes
Betsey Johnson

On a similar note, a very good friend of mine gifted me a cookbook, American Fashion Cookbook. It is a compilation of recipes by members of the CFDA. Some of my favorite "authors" include Tory Burch, Diane von Furstenberg, Zac Posen and Carolina Herrera.

Fashion Watch: MTV Movie Awards

I have to say, I was really surprised at the lack of stylish dresses at last night's MTV Movie Awards. I was worried there wouldn't be any that caught my eye. However, Blake Lively finally arrived on screen to present an award and I fell in love! Below, she wears a cut out dress by Michael Kors.
