Award Winning Fashion

February 23, 2009

There’s nothing better than a red carpet wrap up on Monday!  So who hit the mark?  And who should be jailed for crimes against fashion??? There were lots of similiar looks that traipsed down the red carpet last evening.  Most notably was the classic ball gown worn by the ever-stylish Sarah Jessica Parker in none [...]

Need more help picking out your sussed up ensemble for V-Day this weekend?  Think pretty trims and accessories like lace, ruffles, and pearls and choose fabrics that are  soft and silky -satins are lovely.  Pink and red are not pre-requesites but if you choose something black or another saturated hue be certain that you incorporate one of [...]

Red Carpet Watch: Grammy’s

February 9, 2009

I was quite hesitant to comment on the Grammy garb simply because I am not familiar with many of the artists.  That being said, I had to do a little research in order to find out WHO exactly rocked out the greatest frocks and who stepped out in screwed-up style.
While I cringe every time I [...]

The Gown

January 21, 2009

Ok, ok so this is it!  I couldn’t let Michelle Obama’s Inaugural gown go un-blogged about!  The First Misses looked absolutely resplendent in her creamy Jason Wu gown.  While, I initially thought Michelle would wear a splashy hue, her off-white, asymmetrical silhouette, and elegant train  was the perfect choice and floated along with her and [...]

Garments at the Globes

January 12, 2009

My favorite part of any awards show is the Red Carpet.  It’s always fun to see what the stars are wearing and how they (or their stylists) put it together – hair, jewels, and handbag.  It seemed to me that the stars decided predominantly on donning dramatic black or other inky hues (perhaps due to the [...]

First Lady Wardrobe Wrap-Up

January 7, 2009

I thought it best to hold off on this post until it seemed that everyone had cast his or her vote… I hoped, that some more votes would come in, and that perhaps another MORE worthy design would snag the highest vote….
