Last night cameras were pop’n & flash’n on the red carpet for the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards. Musicians and celebrities flooded the red carpet in their sundays best….. Some were hits, some were misses! Who was your favorite???

My personal favorite dress was Carrie Underwood….. My overall favorite carpet look was GaGa in head to toe Armani. That bish brings the drama and executes flawlessly!!

RAIN, HAIL, SLEET, SNOW….. Well maybe just the rain. But A-listers & celebrities alike attended the 67th Annual Golden Globes Awards last night held at The Beverly Hilton. Now, usually my attention tends to drift after the red carpet segment, but I’m noticing more and more how enjoyable the Globes can be (I’m an oscar gal)! I was watching the Critics Choice Awards the other night, and found myself actually getting excited for Sunday’s Golden Globes… Well needless to say the red carpet was underwhelming! It was raining, there were no tents for guest and everyone on the red carpet was pretty much photographed with umbrellas in the shots!  I was also annoyed by the watermarks and stains on the silk charmeuse & satin dresses….  But hey, what can you do?? The show must go on!!

Meanwhile Mo’Nique wins the first award of the night….. That was all I needed to forget all about the red carpet disaster, I almost lost my shit!!! I’m so so happy for Lee Daniels and the entire cast of Precious and Mo’Nique’s speech was absolutely touching. And that Gabby…. Gabb got spunk, she’s just amazing to me!

Speaking of amazing… How about Halle Berry??? I can’t…. I really can’t!! I’m just going to call her “the face” from now on! lol She is breathtaking and the dress, insane!!

The cast of the Hangover were adorable too…. That damn Bradley Cooper, so cute! I was happy to see my man Mike Tyson in the building as well! Kate Hudson was my favorite red carpet look of the night…. Leona Lewis & Zoe looked fab as well! Good times & inspiration watching the awards last night!!!

CFDA In Color

Tuesday, June 16th, 2009

The annual CFDA Awards were held last night in NYC at the Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall. Designers and celebrities flooded the event in celebration of this years nominees. I really would have liked to see more “color” in the building….. But what can you do?? LOL Where was Chanel Iman, Will & Jada, Sessilee Lopez, P.Diddy, Rihanna, Kanye West & Amber, Halle, Jennifer Lopez,… I mean the list could go on! Maybe I missed them or they could have been busy, but when you have a fashion event that is parallel to the Oscars or Grammy’s make moves and get there! Enjoy the photos below!!!

As fashion week nears its end, I decided to post a few good looks from the red carpets and presentations. Chanel Iman & Joy Bryant looked super cute! Joy’s outfit is very chic with a loose feel, I Love it ladies.

Rachel Roy never ceases to amaze me, its something very “Easy” if you will about her collection and style of design.

Kimmy K. is porcelain faced as usual and absolutely gorgeous, where is that damn Reggie?!?  You betta work!

Victoria Beckham, is one who can do no wrong in my eyes… I often wonder if she’s aware that she crushes everyone, she has to have a stylist riight? Or is she really that dope with it?!? I hope the latter…. That makes me love her more. When Beck’s is by her side things really get crazy….. Damn they look good together!

Tory Burch had a really good presentation this season, I’m obsessed with her color palette and overall genius. Tory has successfully created a lifestyle for women, and is definitely one of  the front runners!

Insanely sick shoe

Insanely Sick

Dammit….I need this shoe immediately if not sooner!! Stella McCartney once again is causing me problems. Recently a close friend and I made a pact that we will not shop for the unnecessary this year, but this shoe is definitely necessary?!? It’s the detail that does it for me, the slight platform and the ruched ankle strap. Not to mention the beautiful silk satin and cut-out detail. These shoes are breathtaking and I want a pair!
