2014 BET Awards Wish List Part 2

Coming off the release of her Vogue cover, where she of course wore Prada, Lupita Nyong'o will take to the red carpet at the BET Awards on June 29th. I would love to see the stunning actress, who has rarely had a misstep on the red carpet since she came on to the scene, wearing this black and white Monique Lhuillier Resort 2014 ensemble with a long sleeved top and high waisted shorts. This is a breezy more casual cocktail ensemble perfect for the BET Awards where big stars show up in cocktail dresses and reality stars go way overboard. I would bring a pop of color to Lupita's red carpet ensemble via a pair of bright metallic blue pumps and a red lip, while toning down her favored blue eye shadow for the night. Should she take my advice she would be well on her way to a Best Dressed Award for her first BET Awards appearance.

Nicki Minaj is nominated for Best Hip-Hop Artist and will be performing come the BET Awards Sunday night. This year we have seen Nicki not just tone down her signature theatrics but be almost downright boring on the red carpet, despite her choices of all Alexander McQueen gowns so far this year. I don't think that this will slow down anytime soon and since I can't see her wearing anymore of the all remaining 3 gowns from the Alexander McQueen Spring 2014 commercial collection I figure she will just have to venture into the Alexander McQueen Pre-Fall 2014. I pick this black long sleeve Alexander McQueen Pre-Fall 2014 gown with a plunging neckline and lace inserts for Nicki to wear on the red carpet. Black pumps, simple jewels, and a red lip would finish this look off perfectly for the awards show on Sunday night.

After her #FreeTheNipple statement at the CFDA Awards I figure we will see a more toned down Rihanna come the BET Awards Sunday night. RiRi is nominated for Best Female R&B/Pop Artist and I am really hoping that she rocks the red carpet. This relaxed Balenciaga Resort 2015 ensemble with a white top and black slouchy pants would look stunning on Rihanna who has been rocking black island waves in messy up-dos lately. I would keep this look really simple with just a pair of black Christian Louboutin pumps, an edgy diamond earcuff, and a very simple diamond bracelet. A red lip would finish the look off perfectly giving Rihanna a relaxed look perfect for the BET Awards.
