2016 Golden Globe Awards: Presenter & Plus One Wish List

Heading to the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night will be Televovela star and creator Eva Longoria. I have to say that Eva is either really good for me or she completely misses the mark, and she usually only hits the mark at the Cannes Film Festival. I am hoping though that when she steps out to present at the Globes that she is on point. I would love to see Eva get her hands on this vermilion orange Prabal Gurung Spring 2016 RTW gown with a velvet halter blouse and silk chiffon skirt. I think that this bold color, yet very sleek, gown would make for such a magical modern red carpet moment. Not every look that takes to a red carpet has to exude old Hollywood glamour, and while Eva does know how to work old Hollywood I would love to see her give us something a little different on the red carpet. I would pair this gown with a pair of strappy gold sandals, sun-kissed makeup, and a sleek pony tail to give Eva a modern glam moment on the Golden Globes red carpet.
Jada Pinkett Smith will most likely be on the red carpet on Sunday night on the arm of her husband, and Best Performance by a Motion Picture - Drama nominee, Will Smith. I used to love seeing Jada on the red carpet but with a lot of the looks that she wore on the red carpet at the end of 2015 just made me cringe. I am hoping that sexy, yet not trying to hard, Jada is back on Sunday night. I think that this simple white Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2016 RTW spaghetti strap gown with a plunging neckline, gold embellished waist detail, and central split would be just what I would love to see Jada wearing as she supports the man she loves. This simple gown is perfect since Jada would just be attending as Will's plus one and not a nominee, supporting a show or film she is in, or presenting. Finish this look with a gold Edie Parker clutch, a pair of strappy Christian Louboutin sandals, and a red lip and Jada will be sexy and sophisticated on the Globes red carpet.
Jenna Dewan-Tatum is always one of the best dressed plus one's that takes to the red carpets when she is on the arm of her husband Channing Tatum, who's presenting on Sunday night. I was a little less than enthused with the sheer lace Marchesa gown that Jenna wore to the premiere of Channing's latest film The Hateful Eight, so I am hoping that she will be a little more clothed at the Golden Globe Awards. I think that this raspberry pink Reem Acra Pre-Fall 2016 one shouldered draped gown, while almost a red carpet standard, is something that Jenna would look exceptional wearing on the red carpet. This gown is chic and elegant while not being anything too much. Finished with a silver clutch, a pair of silver sandals, a red lip, chic updo, and a pair of dazzling diamond earrings will finish this look off perfectly for the red carpet at the Golden Globe Awards.
I am very nervous about what Jennifer Lopez is going to wear on the red carpet when she shows up to present at the Golden Globe Awards. Last year she brought a lot of drama via a caped Zuhair Murad caped gown (which one could say was too much) and then as the year went on her gowns started having less and less fabric. I always believe that the film and television awards are glamour required and the gowns that JLo has been wearing have been more on the tacky side than glamorous side. I went into the Zuhair Murad archives and picked this forest green Fall 2013 Couture strapless pleated gown. I love this gown and I would love to see it on the red carpet and I think that Jennifer would exude her sexy glamour, without looking tacky, wearing this stunning creation. A matching clutch and gunmetal silver sandals, along with old Hollywood waves, a smoky eye, and a pair of diamond cluster earrings would ensure that this is a JLo look to remember.
Maggie Gyllenhaal is another that I have a love or hate type of relationship with on the red carpet. Usually I enjoy her at the big awards shows, but she often picks looks that fade into the background. I am hoping that she brings her a-game to the red carpet at the Golden Globes on Sunday where she is going to be on hand as a presenter. I picked this chic winter white Ralph Lauren Pre-Fall 2016 high bow detailed neck, long sleeved column gown for Maggie to wear. This is a modern yet classic type of look with no muss or fuss which I think Maggie would appreciate. With such a simple classic look I think that this gown would be perfectly styled with a gold Prada clutch, a pair of gold Prada sandals, a vintage inspired style for her bob, a red lip, and a pair of yellow gold set Van Cleef & Arpels diamond earrings for Maggie's Golden Globe red carpet moment.
Naomi Watts will most likely be on the arm of her husband, Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series - Drama nominee, Liev Schreiber at the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night. At the 2015 Emmy Awards Naomi played this same role wearing a Dior Couture cocktail dress which failed to impress or excite. I would keep her look simple, as she is not the focus of the night I think that something like this silver Saint Laurent Spring 2016 RTW embellished gown would be a perfect choice for her. I think that Naomi would shine bright like a diamond and play the part of the perfect plus one in this simmering gown which is not overly fussy and elegant. Styled with a sleek silver clutch, a pair of silver sandals, sleek hair, red lip, and a pair of diamond drop earrings this look could contend for best dressed against some of the nominees.

2016 People's Choice Awards Red Carpet Wish List Part 1

The People's Choice Awards is the second awards show of 2016 setting off on January 6, 2016. The dress at People's Choice is usually all over the place with looks ranging from jeans and t-shirts to evening gowns and off the rack purchases to haute couture, so it makes for a fun evening seeing all the different types of looks that grace the red carpet. ABC's Blood and Oil's Amber Valetta is one of the confirmed stars to take to the red carpet at the People's Choice Awards. I was really excited to find out that Amber was transitioning from modeling into TV and was hoping that would mean some amazing red carpet moments, that hasn't happened as of yet but I am always hopeful that it will turn around. With Balmain being everywhere & getting more and more tacky by each new collection I am almost fatigued but this almost sexy tuxedo inspired ensemble from the Balmain Spring 2016 RTW collection is one that I really want to see on a red carpet. I believe that with her supermodel presence that Amber would rock the hell out of this number on the red carpet, giving her a sultry sexy major moment to kick off 2016. Finished with a sleek hairstyle, a red lip, & black Christian Louboutin pumps & this look would make for a great kickoff to the People's Choice Awards red carpet.
Anna Kendrick is nominated at the 2016 People's Choice Awards for Best Comedic Actress thanks to her work in Pitch Perfect 2. Anna had a rather boring year on the red carpet in 2015 so I am hoping that she will make a come back in 2016. I picked this black Prabal Gurung Pre-Fall 2016 ensemble for Anna to wear for the People's Choice Awards because I think that this is a chic yet subtle and sophisticated way to start her getting back on her feet. Amp up the look with a pair of statement Jimmy Choo sandals and a pair of diamond studs to ensure that Anna kills the red carpet. 
One person who I am really excited to hopefully see on the red carpet at the People's Choice Awards next Wednesday is Blake Lively, who is nominated for Favorite Dramatic Movie Actress thanks to The Age of Adeline. I was not a fan of the actual movie but I love seeing Blake on the red carpet so I hope she steps out (especially since she hasn't been on a red carpet since promoting the movie earlier this year.) I would love to see Blake wear a version of this Gucci Spring 2016 RTW dress. I love this teal blue sequin dress with it's almost comic boom detailing. I think a shorter version with no rosette at the neck would make for a perfect look for Blake for this red carpet. Paired with a sleek pony tail, a pink lip, and a pair of silver Christian Louboutin pumps this look would be a major moment for Blake at the People's Choice Awards.
After killer promotional tours for Paper Towns and Pan I am really excited to see what Cara Delevinge will pop up in on the red carpet at the People's Choice Awards, if she attends. Cara is nominated for the The DailyMail.com Seriously Popular award and I could totally picture the supermodel, whom has a major fan base, winning this type of award. Some of my favorite looks from Cara have come thanks to Alexandre Vauthier and this gold sequined Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2016 RTW ensemble. This sexy ensemble is something that I could picture Cara snatching up and rocking on the red carpet of the People's Choice Awards. This look would be perfectly styled with a pair of gold Christian Louboutin sandals and hair worn in Cara's signature waves.
Charlize Theron is probably one of the women that I am most excited to see take to the red carpet during awards season. Charlize is one of my favorite actresses to see on the red carpet as she just exudes glamour. While she is contractually obligated to wear Dior on the red carpet at the big events, like the Golden Globes or the Oscars, I get excited to see what else she will bring to these types of events. At the People's Choice Awards Charlize is nominated for Favorite Action Movie Actress thanks to Mad Max: Fury Road, and I am really hoping that she will make an appearance. For this red carpet I think that this sexy Anthony Vaccarello Spring 2016 RTW asymmetrical cocktail dress which has a very borrowed from the boys type look. This dress is masculine and sexy which is something we have not seen from Charlize in a very long time. A pair of black Christian Louboutin sandals, a white Dior clutch, and a red lip would ensure that this look is sleek and sexy.
After 2015 I think Ciara is becoming like Leslie Mann or Heidi Klum and inserting herself on any red carpet that she can. At the 2016 People's Choice Awards Ciara will be on the red carpet as she is nominated for Favorite R&B Artist. I didn't even know Ciara had released new music so I guess it tells you how much I follow her. For this res carpet I would love to see Ciara in this black Vera Wang Spring 2016 RTW ensemble. I think that this crop top and feather embellished pencil skirt would make for a perfect look for Ciara. She has been wearing a lot of edgy black ensembles and this would probably take the cake on all of them. A pair of the red to black ombre Christian Louboutin "Hot Chick" pointed toe pumps, sleek slicked back hair, and a red lip would ensure that Ciara has a major all black moment on the red carpet at the People's Choice Awards.

#VMAs2015: Miley Cyrus Hosting Wardobe Wish List

A few hours before MTV announced the nominees for this years Video Music Awards they made an announcement that Miley Cyrus is going to be the hostess of this years ceremony. A bold choice since Miley is known for being so controversial, anyone else remember the 2013 VMA's? I gotta say that I am actually really excited to see what Miley pulls out of the closet for the VMA's. I would love to see Miley wear this black Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2015 Couture gown with a plunging neckline, embellished waist, and feathered train for the VMA red carpet. This is sexy and slinky, two of Miley's check boxes for a red carpet look, which is perfect for the VMA's red carpet. This is an elegant yet sexy statement. Finished with a red lip and a pair of black sandals this would be a best dressed look for Miley to wear for the VMA red carpet.
We all know that chic sophisticated Miley will only rear her head once or maybe twice during this years VMA's and I honestly cant decide which type of look I am most looking forward to seeing, Chic yet sexy Miley or WTF Miley?  I am sure that Miley has had this white catsuit from The Blonds Fall 2015 RTW collection that features embellished pasties and uhmmmm vajazzling. This look screams Miley and I honestly can't say that I would be mad at it. This is the VMA's where anything goes, even meat dresses. I also think that this hip hop-esque Moschino Fall 2015 RTW gold leather bralet and patchwork denim and gold leather jeans is a perfect look for Miley to wear for the VMAs. Miley and Jeremy Scott have a good relationship and I am sure that at least one look that Miley wears for the VMA's is going to be from Moschino. For a more high end look I think that this zebra print and black sequin Saint Laurent Fall 2015 RTW mini dress is sexy and tacky and wow which Miley loves to work as well. Finally I gotta say that I have been waiting for Miley to wear this red Atelier Versace Spring 2015 Couture bralet and pant ensemble since it was first presented back in January. I think that this is that chic sophisticated sexy that Miley would look amazing wearing on stage at the VMA's. It is really hard to predict what Miley will wear? Is she going to go down the chic route or is it going to be a total disaster? I guess we will just have to wait and see.

2015 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Wish List Part 1

I am taking a break from the main ceremony to focus on some of the Oscar night parties for the next few days. These events can be just as glam and give just as much high fashion as the main show does. Amy Adams did not receive an Oscar nomination this year but I am still praying that she decides to hit up a few of the parties. I would love to see Amy on the Vanity Fair Oscar Party red carpet wearing this shocking pink Schiaparelli Spring 2015 Couture silk gown. The silhouette of this gown is one we don't see from Amy very often but I think that the simple style with the bold color and pattern would just sing a beautiful with Amy on the red carpet.
Anna Kendrick is going to be performing at the Academy Awards ceremony next Sunday night and then I am sure she will head out to the parties. I am also figuring that Anna will make a costume change on her way. I created this wish before she was announced as a performer at the ceremony so I do not know if Anna would wear a ball gown, but I would love to see her wear this amazing black and white liquid organza Naeem Khan Pre-Fall 2015 gown that features a sweetheart neckline with multiple thin camisole-style straps, a black floral lace bodice that falls to a white floor length a-line skirt. This is a very pretty gown and I think that Anna would rock it on the red carpet. Old Hollywood waves, a red lip, a black Edie Parker clutch and a pair of black strappy Christian Louboutin sandals would be the perfect finishing touches to put Anna on top of the Best Dressed lists.
The Best Supporting Actress nominated Emma Stone usually changes out of her Oscars ceremony gown and into a second look for the Vanity Fair Oscar Party. I have a feeling that is going to be the case next Sunday night. I picked a beautiful blue and gold Valentino Couture ballgown for Emma to wear for the ceremony so I figured I would give her something that wasn't as much for the Vanity Fair Party. I picked this light gold embroidered high neck gown from the Valentino "Sala Bianca" Haute Couture collection that was presented to commemorate the reopening of the Valentino NYC Flagship. This collection has been receiving a lot of red carpet love and I am sure that time is nowhere near up. I think that this gold gown would make Emma look like a flaming goddess. Finish the look with a gold Lee Savage clutch, a pink lip and a pair of gold sandals and Emma will show why she is one of the best dressed women on the red carpet scene.
Emmy Rossum is going to be hosting the Costume Designers Guild Awards on Tuesday night so I am hoping that she will stay in LA through Oscars night and attend the Vanity Fair Oscars After Party. Emmy is one of my favorite women who rocks red carpets. Very rarely does Emmy disappoint on the red carpet. I would love to see Emmy wear this heavy georgette Monique Lhuillier Pre-Fall 2015 halter gown with a front opening that reveals a vibrant orchid print. I love this gown. When this gown is not in motion this gown you don't really see the print but it is a fun unexpected punch.
I could not find a Dior gown for Felicity Jones to wear for the actual Academy Awards ceremony, even though I feel like she will wear a custom dress. I would love to see her change into this floral print Christian Dior Spring 2015 Couture cocktail dress with side cutouts. This is a mix of 50's housewife and ultra sleek modernity. This is something that I really want to see Felicity do on the red carpet. She does the prim look so well it would be nice to see Felicity wear something with a little edge. Silver sandals and chic hair and  makeup would finish this look off perfectly for the Vanity Fair Oscars After-Party red carpet.
This year Gwen Stefani is rumored to be dropping not only an album with No Doubt but also releasing another solo album. I would love to see Gwen on the red carpet at the Vanity Fair Party next Sunday night. The Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2015 Couture collection was really popular for Grammy weekend and I think that Gwen should get her hands on this collection. I would love to see Gwen wear this silver sequined long sleeve Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2015 Couture gown with a plunging neckline and split to there. The belt reminds me of a heavyweight championship belt so I would probably switch it up and pair it with a black Alaia belt, black sandals, a red lip sand some stunning Chopard diamond earrings to ensure that Gwen is a red carpet hit.
Hilary Swank always wows the fuck out of me. There is something about her grace and elegance that I just love to see her in what ever she wears. I would love to see Hilary wear this Elie Saab brown and blue long sleeve mermaid gown with sweeping train and all over embellishments from the Fall 2014 Couture collection. This gown would be a stunning look for Hilary to wear for the Vanity Fair Party. It is chic and sophisticated and Hilary would infuse sex into the look. A blue clutch, old Hollywood waves and a pair of black sandals would finish this look off perfectly for the Vanity Fair red carpet.

2014 AFI Fest: "Inherant Vice" Premiere Wish List

"Inherent Vice" will be premiering at the AFI Fest with a gala premiere on November 8. I am excited to see this film premiere because like many of the other films being showcased at AFI it has some Oscar buzz around it, all be it as a dark horse but a contender none the less. Jena Malone is one of the cast members of this film and has been on a major red carpet roll this fall, with the "Mockingjay" promo tour and awards season just forthcoming I am excited to keep seeing Jena grow in her red carpet choices. For the AFI Fest I picked this stunning bright yellow Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2014 Couture layered chiffon cocktail dress. I think that this is pretty yet edgy and the bold color is something that Jena would rock the hell out of with her new red locks. I would just pair this dress with a pair of simple gold Stuart Weitzman 'Nudist' sandals, slicked back hair, and simple makeup to ensure that Jena is red carpet ready for the AFI Fest.
I have been really disappointed in Reese Witherspoon so far thus festival season wearing, while be they not boring, but almost all black frocks. I am hoping for some infusion of color come the AFI Fest premiere of "Inherent Vice" on Saturday. I picked this black Marchesa Spring 2015 RTW cocktail dress that features a slight sweetheart neckline with fitted bodice, a full tulle skirt, and floral embroidery throughout the bodice and vertically placed along the skirt in pink and green. This dress was shown on the pre-order site ModaOperandi with looks from the collection that took to the runway. While the base of the dress is black the pink and green floral embroidery elevate this dress into a stunning sweet statement that Reese loves to make on the red carpet. A simple pair of black Stuart Weitzman 'Nudist' sandals, A light pink Edie Parker clutch, and some simple diamond drop earrings would accessorize this look perfectly. Throw on a bright red lip and hair styled in old Hollywood Veronica Lake waves swept over one shoulder and Reese will be back to her best.

2014 Met Ball: Naomi Watts, Pink, Rihanna, & Selena Gomez Wish List

Naomi Watts worked very simple silhouettes during awards season this year. I am hoping that if she takes to the red carpet at the 2014 Met Ball that she brings a look that leaves shock and awe. That is why I have picked this white Schiaparelli Spring 2014 RTW gown with sculpted voluminous sleeved cropped jacket. While Naomi might not be the tallest woman in the world, at 5'5", she can still rock the hell out of some dramatic looks. I would have her hair swept up into 1930's waves, add a red lip, a gold clutch, and a pair of gold pumps to give this look the simple yet statement making accessories that it needs to be a best dressed ensemble.
After going glam at the Grammy's and the Academy Awards I am hoping that if Pink keeps turning up on big red carpets that she will give us a shocking moment. I think that this white and red Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2014 RTW mermaid gown with a fish net skirt and men's shirt like bodice would make a statement that can only be seen on the red carpets of the Met or the Grammy's. Pink knows how to work glamour and punk which is exactly what meshes with this Gaultier creation. I would style her hair in her normal faux hawk style, a smoky eye, neutral lip and pair this look with just a pair of red Christian Louboutin pumps to give her the tools to work this red carpet to death.
As the face of the Balmain Spring 2014 RTW advertising campaign I am expecting Rihanna to take to the red carpet in a Balmain design. I am almost hoping for a custom creation but if I had to choose a runway look it would have to be Balmain Fall 2014 RTW look number 7. With its  detailed line by line leather top, thick belt, and feathered mini skirt, I think that this look is something that Rihanna would wear with her new look that she is rocking as of late. Some sky high black and gold stiletto sandals and a bold lip color will make sure that Rihanna ends up on the best dressed list.
Selena Gomez has been working the sexy lately on the red carpet and I have been loving it. I love this amazing aqua blue Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2014 Couture draped gown. I could see Selena going for this dramatic sexy gown that features an extremely long train that would drape so elegantly over the steps up into the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. A simple silver minaudiere, a pair of silver sandals, a pair of statement diamond drop earrings, and a bold diamond cuff would make sure that Selena is sexy and sultry working the major red carpet.

'Noah' London Premiere Wish List

Jennifer Connelly has been stunning whilst promoting 'Noah,' from Givenchy Couture at the Mexico City Premiere, Lanvin at the Berlin Premiere, and Giambattista Valli Couture at the Paris Premiere. I am excited for the last few stops in London, New York, and Los Angeles. For the London premiere I would love to see Jennifer keep up her love for couture with this goldenrod Elie Saab Spring 2014 Couture goddess draped chiffon gown. This is gown is one of my favorite looks from this collection and I think that Jennifer would work the hell out of it giving her an ethereal red carpet moment in comparison to the edgy and high fashion ensembles that she has worn thus far. A gold box clutch, a pair of gold strappy sandals, and some stunning yellow diamond chandelier earrings would be the perfect ways to finish off this stunning red carpet moment.
 Emma Watson has been debuting a new edgy look on the red carpet, that I don't think that it has been exactly working for her. The fashion itself has been pretty on point, aside from her Oscars dress, but where I am not vibeing is with her hair and makeup. I think that this overtly sexy aqua blue Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2014 Couture gown which features sexy embellishments and a thigh high split. This is a look that we have never seen from Emma but I think that she could rock it and it would go well with her new style. I am going to say that Emma should rock a simple updo, a red lip, a pair of silver sandals, and some simple sexy diamond jewelry will finish this look off for the 'Noah' London premiere next Monday.

Runway Report: Alexandre Vauthier Spring 2014 Couture

Alexandre Vauthier brought the sexy to the runways of Paris Haute Couture fashion week. The young designer has a specific audience and it doesn't look like that is going to change any time soon. It is a nice change of pace to see during the week of elegant classic gowns, cocktail dresses, and suits that take to the runway during this week. Black and oxblood contrasted bright whites, blue, chartreuse, leopard print, and gold embellishments as they took to the runway. Alexandre Vauthier partnered with Christian Louboutin yet again to create a new collection of shoes that the models wore while storming the runway. I can see a host of sexy women wearing this collection including Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Ashley Madekwe, Camila Alves, Kylie Minogue, Emma Roberts, Alicia Keys, Heidi Klum, Rita Ora, Kate Beckinsale, Lady Gaga, Paula Patton, Jennifer Hudson, Nina Dobrev, and even Taylor Swift. See my top 4 looks from the collection bellow.


In the days prior to the Grammy Awards Rita Ora and Rihanna were seen making the pre-show party rounds wearing a bevy of different looks from this collection. I wasn't a huge fan of the gold lurex dress Rita Ora wore a private party at the Chateau Marmont, but then I did like the white jacket, skirt, and white button down she wore to the ROC Nation Brunch the next night. I planned this post the night before the Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Gala and then Rihanna showed up in the yellow silk draped shirt dress, I did a little squeal of delight as I had wanted to see RiRi in this gown. Both of these ladies wore Christian Louboutin shoes, Rita rocked sandals from the collection and Rihanna wore a pair of gold pointed toe pumps.

2014 Grammy Awards: Nominee Wish List Part 1

Sunday night will bring us another big awards show red carpet, and quite possibly the funnest one of the season, The Grammy's. Alicia Keys has one nomination at this years Grammy Awards for Best R&B Album for 'Girl on Fire.' I will say at the end of 2013 Alicia worked the stage, performing at several different events, in designers like Armani Prive and Manning Cartel and I am hoping that she will keep up the fantastic looks come Sunday. While a new Alexandre Vauthier collection was released today I think that Alicia should wear this edgy Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2013 Couture halter neck mono-chromatic ensemble. I think what makes me love this look for Alicia is the mix of classic and uber sexy, which is exactly what works for her. Finish the look with a pair of gold Christian Louboutin sandals and some simple jewelry and this will make for the perfect Grammy look.
Last year Beyonce might not have taken to the red carpet a lot but showed her amazing sense of style through her performance ensembles while on her Mrs. Carter World Tour and ultimately won my Entertainer of the Year award. Sunday night Beyonce is nominated as the featured artist on her hubby Jay-Z's Best Rap/Sung Collaboration or 'Part II (On the Run)' and I am praying for a stunning red carpet ensemble. I am turning to one of the brands that Bey wore quite a bit while on tour, Emilio Pucci. This body hugging white Emilio Pucci Spring 2014 RTW long sleeved gown features quite a bit of skin for a gown which is so covered up and I think that it would look absolutely fantastic on Beyonce. Add a white and gold Edie Parker clutch and a pair of Christian Louboutin gold sandals to complete this look and give Beyonce a best dressed list worth ensemble.
While Amy Adams gave us our first peak into the Valentino Shanghai Collection 2013 on the red carpet at the 2014 Golden Globe Awards, I am hoping that we will see Grammy nominee Florence Welch also pluck a gown from this collection. Florence Welch is nominated in collaboration with Calvin Harris for a Best Dance Song Grammy for their hit 'Sweet Nothing.' I am hoping to see the indie rock diva wear this red and maroon Valentino Shanghai Collection 2013 long sleeved collard gown. This is something that I can see Flo really going for on a red carpet, it's floaty and very vintage looking. With her red hair pulled up and a pair of red sandals on her feet a red lip will be all that I wish for to complete this ensemble for the Grammy Awards red carpet.
I have not loved a Katy Perry look in a very long time. Last year Katy ditched the quirky persona that made me fall in love with her in favor of much more sophisticated looks. If sophisticated is the route that Katy is going to go then I would like to see the the Song of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance nominee for 'Roar' wear this white Giambattista Valli Fall 2013 Couture rise and fall strapless gown. The Spring 2014 Collection for Giambattista Valli was presented yesterday in Paris but I am still holding out a little bit of hope that this gown will get a red carpet appearance and I think the new Katy is the girl to do it. Finish the look with a strappy pair of silver sandals and some statement diamond earrings in her ears and Katy will make a big sophisticated statement.
And finally for today we have Best Song Written for Visual Media ('Young & Beautiful' from 'The Great Gatsby') and Best Pop Vocal Album (Paradise) nominee Lana Del Rey. I am usually very indifferent to anything Lana Del Rey does. She usually fails to elicit any excitement from me in either her music or fashion so I really don't follow her work. With that said I do not expect much from her at the Grammy's but in the slight hope that she might surprise me I think that this black, white, and ivory Antonio Berardi Spring 2014 RTW gown would actually look really stunning on Lana. Lana is a British star who tends to rock British brands and one of the ultimate's right now is Antonio Berardi. Finish this look with a black clutch and a pair of black sandals and Lana will shock me with a great look at the 2014 Grammy Awards on Sunday night.

'Rush' London Premiere Wish List

Recently former 'House' star Olivia Wilde has been experimenting with a lot of bold patterns on the red carpet, which is a welcome change from the all black looks that she was rocking on the red carpet for the longest time. While I do love the bold prints for the premiere of her newest film 'Rush' in London on September 2nd, I think that this black and white Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2013 Couture cowel neck cocktail dress would be the perfect choice for her. I think that this is classy with a whole lot of sexy. On the wrong person this dress would go the wrong way into tacky-ville, but on Olivia I think that this dress would be sexy and sophisticated. Finish the look with a black and gold Kotur art deco clutch and a pair of black and gold Versace sandals and Olivia will definitely have a perfect look for this premiere in London.

2013 Emmy Awards: Oustanding Host in a Reality Series Wish List

Cat Deeley has been a regular on the Emmy Awards red carpet and here, like most of her red carpet appearances, she almost exclusively wears Monique Lhuillier. I am going to be surprised if she chooses another brand to wear for this years ceremony where she is nominated for Outstanding Host in a Reality Series for her position on 'So You Think You Can Dance.' I think that this navy blue embellished Monique Lhuillier Resort 2014 gown is perfect for the blonde British actress. This is a sexy yet elegant gown that Cat would just look perfect on the red carpet with a black Edie Parker clutch, a pair of black embellished sandals, and some simple diamond accessories.
Last year Heidi Klum took to the red carpet at the 2012 Emmy Awards wearing an aqua blue Alexandre Vauthier gown with head to toe accessories that matched perfectly. She looked like German sex-pot Barbie and at 40 that just doesn't work anymore. Heidi can still be sexy but doesn't need to dress like she is 25 anymore. I think that this white Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2013 Couture gown with a deep v, broad shoulders, long sleeves, and a thigh high slit would be the perfect choice to still be sexy yet sophisticated. Complete this look with a pair of silver Christian Louboutin sandals, some stunning Lorraine Schwartz earrings, and a statement Lorraine Schwartz cocktail ring and I believe that Heidi will redeem herself on the red carpet.

2013 Toronto International Film Festival Premieres Wish List Part 5


This is the only film that the stunning Jessica Chastain will be premiering this year is 'The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby' which is disappointing because it doesn't seem like a film that will garner the stunning actress any awards season recognition. Aside from that I am expecting Jessica to bring it to the Toronto International Film Festival like she always does on the red carpet. I think that this cornflower blue Christian Dior Spring 2013 Couture cocktail dress is perfect for Jessica who doesn't like to carry a clutch. This was one of my favorite looks from the Christan Dior Spring 2013 Couture collection and I am still surprised that no one, including any of the Dior ambassadors like Marion Cotillard or Natalie Portman, have snatched this dress up. Just a simple pair of sparkling Christian Louboutin pumps, a sleek updo, and simple diamond earrings would be the perfect way to complete this look for Jessica for TIFF.
After wearing several Christian Dior looks this  year I am still certain that after this season of being a spokeswoman for Jimmy Choo that she will ultimately become a spokesmodel for Christian Dior. But before that happens Nicole will take to the red carpet at the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival to premiere her latest film 'The Railway Man.' I think that this jade green Christian Dior Resort 2014 50's inspired cocktail dress. The last outing of Dior that Nicole made was a black mini dress at the 2013 CMT Music Awards which was a little too twee for her but I think that this dress is age appropriate and classic but yet still sexy. Finish the look with a pair of silver Jimmy Choo sandals and simple hairstyle would make this look absolutely amazing.
Olivia Wilde has a sense of style that sometimes I just can't get behind but when she gets it right she gets it oh so right. I am hoping for her premiere of 'Rush' at the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival that she will get it oh so right. I think that this white Alexandre Vauthier Fall 2013 Couture gown with long sleeves, a deep v, and a slit up to there would be a sexy confident choice for her to make for this premiere. In the past few years I have felt that a lot of Olivia's choices have been dumpy and old looking and that is nothing that she should even be in the same sentence as because she is only 29 years old. Save the dumpy clothing for when you are 90 hun, stay with glamorous elegant and sexy choices. Finish the look with a pair of silver Christian Louboutin sandals and a silver Anya Hindmarch glitter clutch and Olivia will have the perfect look for her TIFF premiere.
